Board tables proposal to adopt 1stDue countywide after law‑enforcement concerns
Summary
The board discussed adopting 1stDue for interoperable responder notifications and records management, with staff citing a $201,050 first‑year implementation and $168,000 annual cost; members asked for more information on law‑enforcement modules and FOIA implications and tabled the item for further review.
Staff presented a proposal to make 1stDue the county's primary interoperable reporting and responder‑notification platform, saying the product could replace multiple existing systems and give agencies a single point of contact for tech support.
A presenter explained estimated costs: "So with the 1st year, that's $201,050. That's the implementation... and then once that goes away it's $168,000 a year that we would end up having to," and said the vendor could migrate many records from legacy systems. Board members and chiefs raised concerns about whether the platform's modules meet law‑enforcement FOIA and records requirements and whether it should replace police reporting systems such as Spillman. Chief McKinney and Undersheriff Justin Ames said they needed more information on law‑enforcement modules and FOIA implications before supporting countywide adoption.
Members agreed to pursue further demos and law‑enforcement consultation rather than move to a vote. Chair and staff recommended sending follow‑up questions to the vendor and arranging additional demonstrations. The board formally tabled Item F1 to the next meeting to allow targeted review and stakeholder engagement.
