Tarrant County 9-1-1 District (District) has established a P25 Radio Assistance Program to reimburse

neighboring jurisdictions. All approved expenses must facilitate regional interoperability.
On June 14, 2011, (M&C G-17303)the City Council authorized the execution of a System Purchase
Agreement with Motorola Solutions, Inc., for the upgrade of the City's public safety communications
system (Project). The City submitted a reimbursement application to the District for expenses related to
quality assurance, scheduling and engineering services incurred as part of the Project. The City's
application was approved by the District's Board of Managers on July 15, 2013, as being in accordance
with the program.
The funds will be allocated to the Project to offset maintenance and support costs and to be used as
contingency funds. At the conclusion of the Project in 2015, all remaining funds will be reviewed for
reallocation.
Reimbursement is expected in September 2013.
