Radio tower project in progress; sheriff testing to begin, final sign‑off delayed until summer
Summary
County staff reported civil work on the radio tower is complete, crew will repair generators, sheriff's department testing is planned, a 30‑day testing window follows, and the county will hold a $75,000 retention until final completion.
Speaker 2 updated the committee on the county radio tower project and next steps.
Civil construction work is finished and teams will address generator issues next week. Speaker 2 said antennas and communications links between towers are being adjusted because some connections were underperforming; one outage lasted about 36 hours during recent work. The sheriff's department is expected to begin testing in roughly two weeks; after initial agency testing, the county will observe a 30‑day period before phased activation. "The hope was this month, but... once the sheriff's department starts testing, it's 30 days after that," Speaker 2 said.
Committee members asked about final walk‑through and holding retention funds; Speaker 2 said final sign‑off likely will wait until summer and that the county will retain $75,000 until project completion.
No formal vote was taken on the work; the update was informational and staff will report further at the next executive and finance committee meeting.
