Summary
Oklahoma County approved applying for a new grant to meet state GIS mapping requirements for the NextGen DIS 911 system. County staff said the grant would reimburse up to $78,000 at 100% and that the MIS team and the sheriff's office will jointly implement the work if awarded.
Oklahoma County commissioners approved the county's application for a grant to support updates required for the NextGen DIS 9-1-1 system, including GIS mapping work county staff said is a state requirement.
County management described the grant as a 100% reimbursement opportunity and said the county plans to allocate up to $78,000 for the work pending award. Staff identified three bids that met the county's specifications and said the county's MIS team (Tim Connor and Gabriel) will work with the sheriff's department and a team assembled by Andrea Dean to implement the project if the grant is awarded.
Commissioners approved the grant application and authorized staff to proceed. The county noted that once the grant is awarded the vendor costs will be reimbursed to the county at 100%, and staff will coordinate interdepartmental work on mapping requirements specified by ACOG and state rules.
No further details about specific vendor contracts or a grant-award schedule were provided during the meeting.
