Welcome to the Radio System Replacement Project Web Site. The purpose of this web site will be to provide an information portal for the radio replacement project as well as a document repository.
One of the primary goals of the Radio Communications Division will be to keep a open and timely method of communications for this project and this web site will help fulfill that very important goal.
The single most important concern for any public safety radio project is to ensure that when a first responder pushes the transmit button on his/her radio that the transmission is successful the first time, every time. The existing systems have reached the end of their useful life and must be replaced. The current systems do not have sufficient capacity to meet the needs of the existing users, let alone any new users.
The ultimate goal of this project will be to replace the four existing radio systems that, are at the end of their system life cycles, with a reliable, effective and efficient radio system. This system will improve Citywide communications, provide for inter agency interoperability between City, County, Regional, State and Federal agencies.
