The Tarrant County 9-1-1 Public Safety Answering Points'Assistance Reimbursement Program (PSAP)
was initiated to help ensure that emergency response communication units throughout the county are
provided up-to-date training, equipment and operating tools. To apply, a local jurisdiction must expend a
specified amount of funds in direct support of its emergency response communication units. These
expenses can be for supplies, training, equipment, or other items with direct linkages to emergency
response communication efforts. Once the threshold is met, the jurisdiction can receive a pro-rated
amount based on population.
The Police Department will use its reimbursement to pay for furniture, training and other related items for
the Communications Center. For Fiscal Year 2017, the Police Department anticipates using its
reimbursement as follows:
