August 17, 2009 (Regular Meeting) Page 1533 Currently, AT&T is providing our selective routing service for the E9- 1-1 system for all three PSAP's (Concord, Kannapolis, and Sheriff). This AT&T technology has not changed much since the initial implementation in 1994. Intrado provides a new NG9-1-1 selective routing service which integrates voice and data, enabling a more efficient accommodation of new technologies like Vo1P, while providing more control over E9-1-1 call routing. This routing service not only is more efficient and robust, but actually costs less per month than the current AT&T system. On an average the county can expect to see a savings in the range of $5,000.00 to $10,000.00 per month. UPON MOTION of Commissioner Carruth, seconded by Commissioner Poole and unanimously carried, the Board approved the Lease Agreement between Cabarrus County and Intrado, Inc. for the NG9-1-1 selective routing service and authorized the County Manager to execute the Agreement on behalf of Cabarrus County, subject to review or revisions by the County Attorney. Captain Teresa A. Small will retire from the Cabarrus County Sheriff's Department on August 28, 2009. It is requested that Captain Small's service weapon, a Siq Sauer, 90 Caliber, Model P266 Serial No. U689290, be declared surplus and awarded to her for the price of $1.00, upon her retirement from the Sheriff's Department, pursuant to N.C.G.S. 20-187.2. UPON MOTION of Commissioner Carruth, seconded by Commissioner Poole and unanimously carried, the Board declared surplus and authorized the award of the service weapon (Sig Auer, 90 Caliber, Model P266, Serial No. 0689290) for the price of $1.00 to Captain Teresa A. Sma11 upon her retirement from the Sheriff's Department, pursuant to N.C.G.S. 20-187.2. (F-11) Sheriff's Department - 800 MHz Digital Radio Purchase The Sheriff's office is requesting to purchase 80 (eighty), digital, 800 MHz radios in the amounts of (30) mobiles and (50) portables. This purchase request is already budgeted, but needs board approval due to the amount of purchase. This radio purchase is consistent with the current digital migration and interoperability plan for the county. Motorola currently has a trade-in allowance for the analog radios we are replacing. This trade-in allowance is $550.00 per portable and $400.00 per mobile which is better than a direct sales rate. This trade-in will save the county $39,500.00 towards the purchase of these new digital radios. The total cost with trade-ins for the 80 radio units is $286,997.11. UPON MOTION of Commissioner Carruth, seconded by Commissioner Poole and unanimously carried, the Board approved the purchase of 80 (eighty), 800 Mhz, digital radios on State Contract from Motorola, and to surplus 80 (eighty), 800 Ms, analog radios to be used as a trade-in allowance. Soil is Grant for A resolution of support is required as part of a grant proposal Cabarrus SWCD has submitted to the N.C. Division of Water Resources for funds to restore and stabilize a stream bank segment on Cold Water Creek as it flows through Emma C. Lomax Incubator Farm property. The county contribution to this project as proposed in the budget primarily consists of 1) in-kind contributions of land value and 2) in-kind contributions of staff time by Cabarrus SWCD and state Division of Soil and Water Conservation employees. UPON MOTION of Commissioner Carruth, seconded by Commissioner Poole and unanimously carried, the Board adopted the following resolution: Resolution No. 2009-21 Resolution WHEREAS, the Cabarrus County Board of Commissioners desires to sponsor the stream restoration of Cold Water Creek on the Cabarrus County Elma C. Lomax Incubator Farm. The project will require removal of tree debris from the stream channel and restoration of an eroding bank on Cold Water Creek. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT:
