Village of Brooklyn to purchase two MPSCS radios; committee records village will cover costs
Summary
The committee recommended the Village of Brooklyn DPW’s request to add two radios to the MPSCS system and clarified the village will pay full purchase and recurring fees; the motion passed unanimously.
Jason, representing the Village of Brooklyn Department of Public Works, asked the committee to recommend approval for two radios to be added to the Michigan Public Safety Communications System (MPSCS).
He told commissioners the Village of Brooklyn contacted the county about a year earlier, DOT staff reviewed the MPSCS policy and state service-study thresholds (county service was under 1% vs policy 1.7%), and the village will purchase the radios and cover annual system fees.
Chair confirmed the full burden of cost will be on the village and asked for a motion to recommend approval to the full board. The committee unanimously approved forwarding the request with that understanding.
Next steps: village purchases radios and the item will be included in full-board materials as recommended by the committee.
