Cass County approves Motorola contract to update dispatch consoles; cost to be split with city
Cass County Commissioners voted to approve a contract with Motorola Solutions to upgrade the dispatch center's radio consoles, with the contract price cited at $740,207 plus additional maintenance fees.

Sheriff (unnamed in transcript) described the project as an equipment refresh to replace consoles that are approaching end-of-life around 2030 and said parts and tariffs have pushed costs higher since a prior procurement attempt. "The ones we have are still serviceable, but at 2030, I believe, is the end of life," the sheriff said. The sheriff explained the new consoles require fiber-optic connections and that the state integrated public communications system (IPSC) may help with fiber installation to improve interoperability.

Commissioners discussed cost-sharing with the city. One commissioner asked whether the county would be responsible for half of the total. The sheriff and other speakers said that was the understanding from a prior council discussion involving Logan's city council leadership. The board approved the motion to proceed with the contract "with the understanding that this is in conjunction with the city."
