AGENDA ITEM:
SUBMITTED BY: J.Campbell
DATE: 02-22-2000
BACKGROUND:
Duval County collects a user fee of forty-four cents(.44)for each telephone line within
the city to off set the cost of providing 911 Emergency Telephone Service. Each year,
Duval County 911 Emergency System distributes back to the city a portion of this user
fee. This is to offset the cost of 911 Emergency Communications Operators(E.C.O.)
Salaries, and is based on the staffing levels,actual salary costs, and portion of time
engaged in actual 911 telephone usage by the E.C.O.
This inter-local agreement has normally been a yearly agreement. The attached
document has been modified to cover a five-year period,with a maximum increase of
eight percent(8%)per year. This is intended to eliminate the need to execute a new
document each year. The document includes clauses for modification if the City's
E.C.O. salary ranges or staffing levels change significantly.
BUDGET:
There is no effect on the budget.
RECOMMENDATION:
We recommend the approval of this agreement,and authorize the Mayor to sign it. The
amount to be distributed to the City of Atlantic Beach for this fiscal year is set at
$63,980.00.
ATTACHMENTS:
Copy of proposed contract with Duval County 911 Syst and the City of Jacksonville.
