Centre County to renew 911 radio maintenance contract, board told $206,836 price
Summary
The board agreed to add two 911 emergency communications contract items, including a one‑year renewal with Center Communications for routine and emergency maintenance of IP microwave equipment that supports the county P25 radio and paging systems; the contract total presented was $206,836 for 2026.
Ramey (S13) presented a contract renewal request with Center Communications to provide routine and emergency maintenance on Centre County's IP microwave equipment, which supports P25 radio service, paging sites and related cameras. Ramey said the total for the renewal would be $206,836 and that the period would run from Jan. 1, 2026, through Dec. 31, 2026.
Chair and commissioners noted the dollar figure and placed the items on next week's consent agenda for formal approval. The administration framed the renewal as part of a broader investment in radio infrastructure that has brought county emergency radio coverage to nearly full geography in recent years.
No amendments or alternate bids were discussed publicly; commissioners moved to add the 911 items to next week's consent agenda and that motion carried by voice vote.
