DEDIR SYSTEM  
8.A.  
Discussion of Policy 911-005.13: DuPage Emergency Dispatch Interoperable Radio  
System (DEDIR System) CommandCentral Aware.  
Chair Selvik reported that ETSB staff and Sergeant Jim Dexter attended the DuPage  
Police Chiefs meeting and reviewed how CommandCentral Aware had been used during  
recent MERIT SWAT responses, including a swatting call in Villa Park. He explained  
that the purpose of the presentation was to support continued participation in the system  
and discourage agencies from opting out because that could limit situational awareness  
during major incidents.  
Executive Director Zerwin explained that the opt-out option had been left on the form so  
the ETSB staff could identify agencies with concerns and address them before finalizing  
participation. She noted that a standardized form has been created and shared on  
Monday.com instead of collecting many different spreadsheet versions. Vice Chair Clark  
asked whether every agency would need to submit the form and raised questions about  
how agencies would classify radios and personnel. Executive Director Zerwin explained  
that agencies would need to identify their categories and that PSAPs would still retain full  
visibility for officer safety.  
Member Fleury described issues during a recent SWAT call where some radios did not  
appear correctly in CommandCentral Aware and where radio communications at the  
command post were inconsistent. Executive Director Zerwin and Chair Selvik  
encouraged follow up so the issue could be reviewed. Member Benjamin and Chair  
Selvik supported keeping the opt-out option temporarily so agencies with concerns could  
be identified and contacted. The group then discussed whether the form should refer  
specifically to MERIT instead of task force, and they agreed that MERIT would be  
clearer.  
Member Jansen asked about login limits and cost, and Executive Director Zerwin  
explained that there was no added cost, but administrative access levels needed to be  
managed carefully. Vice Chair Clark also questioned whether the form was mixing  
visibility of radios with visibility permissions for users. The discussion ended with  
agreement that the form needed to be reorganized and clarified so it better distinguished  
who could be seen, who could see others, and how each layer would function before it  
was distributed.
