Director's Report: Peterson reported no problems with 800MHz radio system since last meeting. Status of the radio system upgrade included contract signing on October 21, 2003. Awaiting scheduled date for technical meeting with Motorola. A new 800 MHz FCC license was received on September 30th. New call sign is WPYQ729. Additional modifications to existing licenses for KRS248 and WPIK695 have been submitted. This will include adding Gretna tower as a site for our 155.55 MHz county paging system; deletes an unused site 132/Platteview for our 453.90 MHz fire paging; adds the existing Springfield Fire Station as a location for our 453.90 MHz fire paging; and adds Platteview Tower as a new site for 453.90 MHz fire paging. These changes were required to be submitted before the end of the year since a new FCC requirement for 12.5 KHz spacing will go into effect next year (our system is only capable of 25.0 KHz spacing). The FY04 budget still awaiting completion of union contract negotiations for dispatcher pay rates. Sarpy County received Phase 1 Wireless reimbursement of $64,204 from the Wireless Fund on November 1st. This money was deposited in the E911 Communications fund as revenue and will offset expenses this fiscal year. LRMS upgrade problems were discussed at a meeting held on October 29th. A get well plan was presented by Printrak officials and a new date for “go live” is set for December 15th.
