<br />~c <br /> <br />ALLIANce <br /> <br />14921 Fifth Avenue South <br />. Minneapolis, MN 55409 <br /> <br />! <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />I Voice: 612 720;.5$43 <br />I Fax: 612 825.8912 <br />I Toll Free: 888384-9171 <br /> <br />i info@pscalliance;com <br />I www.pscalliance.com <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />May 05, 2005 <br /> <br />Mr. Brandt Richardson <br />County Administrator <br />Dakota County Government Center <br />. 1590 Highway 55 <br />Hastings, MN 55337 <br /> <br />Re: Joint Dispatch <br /> <br />Dear Brandt: <br /> <br />I have had the privilege of providing consulting services to Dakota <br />County from time-to-time since 1997. I have also provided certain se rvices <br />directly to some of the individual communities within the county during a <br />comparable window of time. Our professional efforts have all focused on <br />the issue of public safety service delivery and communications technolog y <br />during that period. <br /> <br />During each prior engagement the issue of dispatch consolidation has <br />consistently surfacecl at one time or another in every venue. It is my <br />observation that at no time since 1997 has the interest, commitment, and <br />enthusiasm of all of the local government stake holders to consider actual <br />methods of implementing joint dispatch been higher than it is right now. I <br />also suggest that the opportunity to actually implement joint dispatch has <br />never been better than it is now. <br /> <br />Recommendations <br /> <br />At an April meeting of the HiPP policy group, I committed to offer some <br />spedfic recommendations concerning joint dispatch for consideration by <br />the members. We recommend that: <br /> <br />1. Dakota County and its partnering communities establish a single, <br />jointly operated public safety dispatch center to serve all of the <br />citizens of the County. <br /> <br />2. The single joint PSAP be governed and operated as a Joint Powers <br />Agency pursuant to the principles and governance considerations as <br />established in the documented record of meetings of the HiPP Joint <br />Dispatch study group. <br /> <br />S-S:~ <br />
