Summary

The council approved purchase and implementation of a Central Square computer‑aided dispatch and records system to put police and fire on a single CAD platform, with one‑time implementation cost around $2,340 and an annual subscription not to exceed $2,181.42.

Del City Council voted to approve the purchase and implementation of a joint Central Square computer‑aided dispatch (CAD) and records management system that will put police and fire on the same platform.

Chief Williams described the project as a "really big deal," saying it will be "the first time fire department and police department are on the same CAD," and outlined training plans: trainers will arrive and intensive training begins the next day with a planned go‑live date on the 28th of the month. The council approved the one‑time implementation expense (approximately $2,340) and authorized the annual subscription fee not to exceed $2,181.42 per year.

Council members voted unanimously to approve the purchase and authorized the mayor to endorse the agreement. City staff said the implementation involves department training and a scheduled go‑live; no additional appropriation details were discussed during the meeting.
