New Business:
Duel County Dispatching: Miller and Stratton communicated with Duel County and feel
confident they will join our PSAP. He stated we need to look at adding additional staff to meet
the requirement. Miller asked what they receive for surcharge money; $27,000. Falken asked
Miller to send a letter to Lake Co. and Moody Co. and offer our services.
Miller mentioned there will be a minimum cost of $30,000 if we take on Deuel County.
Capacity is at its maximum currently. Falken stated Deuel Co. will have to pay for that.
Stanwick stated one of the concerns if more counties join our PSAP is that two dispatchers
might not be enough.
