Prior to the state's review <br />we must submit a signed inter-local agreement stating that all <br />parties understand and agree upon the proposed project and future <br />operations. <br />At this time, county staff and the county attorney are crafting <br />this agreement for Cabarrus County, and the cities of Concord and <br />Kannapolis to review and ultimately approve. Hopefully this <br />agreement will go before the respective boards in March and <br />advance to the State 911 Board in April. <br />3. In addition to the E911 phone system, the current radio <br />system has become outdated and most of its working parts will be <br />obsolete in the next year or two. Therefore county, Concord and <br />Kannapolis staffs have been searching for an enhanced replacement <br />system that will carry our emergency services into the future <br />with the ability to connect to a regional system that is based in <br />Charlotte. Currently two P25 radio systems are being evaluated <br />with a recommendation for the Board to consider soon. The cost <br />of this new system and the additional towers needed to assure <br />coverage throughout the county is estimated to be approximately <br />$9 million with a recurring annual maintenance fee of <br />approximately $600,000.00. These costs will be proportionately <br />shared by the county, Concord, and Kannapolis. <br />GOAL 3: Use resources wisely and responsibly by protecting assets, <br />minimizing risk, creating partnerships, and using technology to maximize the <br />value of county investments, expenditures, and services. <br />GOAL 3: YEAR 1 OUTCOMES PROGRESS NEXT STEPS <br />1.
