All radios purchased must be <br />compatible with the 800 MHz Countywide Coordinated Communications System <br />(800 MHz CCCS). The 800 MHz CCCS radio system provides effective and <br />reliable radio communication for routine operations of participating law <br />enforcement, fire services, EMS and disaster preparedness agencies as well <br />as interagency communications during disaster operations. <br /> <br />The County of Orange recently renewed the contract with Motorola for the <br />operational requirements established by the 800 MHz Countywide Coordinated <br />Communications System. In order to maintain the integrity of the <br />communications system, staff recommends Council approval of the recommended <br />action. Along with the funds to purchase eight radios, an additional <br />contingency amount has been included to allow for unanticipated purchases. <br /> <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br /> <br />Funds are available in the Police Property & Facilities Operating Materials <br />& Supplies account (account no. 11-343-6391). <br /> <br />APPROVED AS TO FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS: <br /> <br />Ji.._ [~.-- <br /> <br />Paul M.
