County Radio Replacements

Linda Zerwin, ETSB Executive Director, explained to the committee that radios have

reached their end-of-life, and that end-of-support is scheduled for 2030. By approving the

purchase of new radios, the County is eligible for a 47% discount along with better

maintenance and more efficient swapping of radios. The total cost for the new radios is

approximately $1.88 million. The County will be able to re-sell the old radios. By a show

of hands, committee members gave their consensus to proceed with the transfer of funds

from Contingencies in order to move ahead with the purchase. The ETSB Board will vote

on this item at their October meeting.
