BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On September 4, 2019, Council approved the purchase of the replacement radio system for Public Safety by adopting Resolution No. 2019-178. The radio system is an integral part of a Police Officer's and Firefighter's safety while on duty. The current Motorola radio system is at its end of life and is experiencing intermittent failures of components that are not supported by the manufacturer. Replacement parts are salvaged from neighboring municipalities or purchased on eBay, and are increasingly rare and difficult to find. The change order addresses the need for equipment not covered under the original purchase. The additional equipment will be installed at Stockton Fire dispatch center, allowing Stockton's radio system to be compatible with Lodi's new radio system. The City of Lodi, Stockton, Manteca, Tracy, and Lathrop-Manteca Fire District desired to jointly exercise their powers to provide for regional emergency and non-emergency dispatch services and related services, including but not limited to creation, development, ownership and operation of programs, facilities, and funds which led to the creation and establishment of the San Joaquin County Regional Fire Dispatch Joint Powers Authority (the 'Authority") on July 1 , 2015. Stockton Fire had been chosen to be the dispatch agency for the Authority. Stockton had a well-established fire dispatch center and was the easy and most cost effective choice. Being part of the regional dispatch is critical to emergency response within Lodi, particularly in larger events. Maintaining connection to the current regional dispatch center and the ability to be compatible with potential future changes is critical. These upgrades will help ensure Lodi Fire Department has the ability to be interoperable with regional dispatch. FISCAL IMPAGT: Funding for the change order purchase will come from current appropriations in the Measure L Fund.
