' the Plan.

from three major hospitals in the region, the ambulance services, law
enforcement and other agencies were involved in the plan; a study was
conducted and a plan developed, the plan has been submitted to the Com-
prehensive Planning Board; they have accepted it, it has been presented to
the COG, the COG has accepted it. The question is on implementing the
plan; the association is requesting federal funds and an application for
emergency medical funding.
Mr. Scott Robbins spoke to communications systems in Port Collins.
CV City Manager Brunton stated this had been.. one of the most discussed sub-
jects and that discussing it now was premature. The City Manager re-
V viewed the 911 system and read at length the following letter..
:r•7
TO: Robert L. Brunton, City Manager
FROM: Mike DiTuIIio, Assistant City Manager
DATE: Sept. 19, 1974
RE: 911 Emergency Phone System
You have asked me to prepare a status report on the 911 System and to answer
the charge that the delay for implementation is the result of the inability
of the City and the County to get together.
The citizens of .Fort Collins and the City administration have been very in-
terested in the 911 concept for several years. In fact, several years ago
1 personally was involved in a study concerning this subject. At that time
1 was informed that Mountain Bell did not have the needed equipment to in-
stall a truly functional 911 system. Further, to install such equipment
would require substantial capital expenditures by the company in addition to
requiring 13 to 24 months lead time.
The program in 1972 envisioned 911 as being available to all people in the
Fort Collins district: Fort Collins, Loveland, Estes Park, Wellington, Red
Feather, and Livermore. 911 lines would be installed at the following loca-
tions: Fort Collins Police and Fire Departments, Poudre Valley Hospital,
Larimer County Sheriff's Office, Poudre Valley Rural Fire Department, and
the ambulance service. My analysis at that time revealed that it would cost
$2,203 yearly for equipment rental and $5,184 for personnel. (Personnel
costs were based on the suggestion that the central dispatch center would
be located at the fire station.) Because of the technical equipment problem,
' the program never really got off the ground.
In the early part of 1974, as you will recall, we attended a meeting where
the 911 System again was discussed. Along with representatives from Mountain
Bell, nearly all those people concerned with emergency operations were in
116
attendance. The interest
was more highly
intensified because of the estab-
Iishment
of the Emergency
Medical Service
at Poudre Valley Hospital. At the
meeting,
Mountain Be1I again
posed the problem
of technical equipment, the
capital
cost, and the long
lead time for
ordering. Also, it was noted that
Mountain
BeII would make a
study of need
to determine exactly what equipment
'
would be
required and what
the cost would
be to the users.
On Feb. 5, 1974, you made a formal request to Mountain Bell via Larry Bontempo
for them to conduct a study to determine the cost and feasibility of establish-
ing the 911 Emergency Communication Program. You also indicated that You had
appointed mu to act as coordinator for the City. After repeated requests,
was able to have a meeting with Mr. Bontempo on April 22, 1974. He in-
dicated that he was in the process of compiling the study and that the re-
port would be forthcoming in the very near future. In his verbal report
he did express his concern about the lack of a defined central dispatch
center and exactly which agencies would be included. As of this date, no
written report has been received, nor have I had any coinnunications rela-
tive to 911 with Mountain Bell since that time.
The question of a Central Dispatch Center is one of great importance to
the success of a 911 System. As noted in the Cresap, McCormick and Paget
report, it is a very practical approach to functional and effective law
enforcement. We have, as a City, been committed to this concept and have
established two committees to work on it. One, composed of Ralph Smith,
Art March, and Bob Brunton, is working with the County Commissioners on
facilities. Another, with Jerry Wallace, Tom Fierce, and Michael DiTullio,
is working with other agencies and the Colorado Criminal Justice Council '
on the radio frequency for the entire County. We have included $100,000
in our 1975 budget to assist in any radio frequency changeover. We cannot,
however, proceed with any clear understanding on the 911 until we know the
total cost and receive the report from Mountain Bell. Once this informa-
tion is received, we can then proceed to get firm commitments from the in-
terested and concerned agencies. Therefore, it is incumbent upon Mountain
Bell to deliver their findings and provide leadership in an area where
only they have the answers. With respect to making it .work, the pibli-c
entities have already shown dne Jiligence and are ready to move forts rd.
City Manager Brunton further stated the administration was desirous of dis-
cussing with the Cowity the public Safety Building. The Manager also stated
that if allgovermental agencies got behind the plan, perhaps no federal
funding ArLld be required. The radio band frequencies had been changed
from the ISO to 450 because the ISO was iammed and got funding for the
450; now the federal people are advising us that they will fund the system
to buy back the system and have us go back to the 150 system so that it
will be a compatible system.
Councilwoman Gray inquired of Mr. Gardel, Specifically what he was ask-
ing of Council. Mr. Gardell responded he would like "Eirst of all,a
letter of support, regardless of whether funding was requested of not, '
secondly, if it is the desire of Council to proceed with getting involved
with federal funding". iie would like to have the City recognize a need in
the region for a communication system.
117
City Manager Brunton stated again he felt this item was premature as the
' Administration had seen no comprehensive Plan in termsof workability and
how the City would fit in the scheme.
Councilman Bowling stated he would like to refer the request to the City
.Manager's office for study.
City Manager Brunton stated this item could even be part of the next work
session.
No further action taken on this item.
