Members push to capture 'base level' service and revenue rules in ILA

Participants said the ILA must record the working group's prior agreement that a base level of PSAP service be provided to municipalities without additional charge and that any revenue first be applied to operation costs.

Commissioner Tyson said the draft ILA currently "contemplates it, there is no base level of service provided at no additional cost to the municipality," and urged the group to reference the previously circulated resolution sections that set a tiered service model. The chair and others agreed attorneys should incorporate summary language from sections 4 and 5 of that prior resolution or attach it as an addendum.

Task force members asked managers to produce a concise summary paragraph in the ILA that references base-level and enhanced services, with details deferred to policy or an addendum so the agreement remains readable. Attorneys and staff will reconcile the revenue and cost-allocation language and return a revised draft.
