RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and
Clerk of the Council to execute a one-year agreement with Hi Desert
Communications for maintenance and repairs in an amount not to exceed
$20,000.
DISCUSSION
In June 2004, the City Council approved an agreement with Hi Desert
Communications to install the Fire Department's Zetron Fire Station
Alternate Alerting System. This system alerts the fire stations of
emergency dispatch calls using both audio (buzzer) and visual (colored
lights) . Hi Desert is the sole local authorized Zetron maintenance and
warranty provider. In order to help ensure efficient response to
emergencies, the Fire Department staff recommends entering into an
agreement with Hi Desert Communications for maintenance of the fire station
alerting system.
