Resolution ECD 2017-02 - Interlocal Agreement between Brentwood Emergency Communications District (ECD) and City of Brentwood for funding of equipment, programs and projects by the City and the ECD for the ECD's purpose.

Background

As you know, the Brentwood Emergency Communications District (ECD) is a separate legal entity. The attached inter-local agreement between the City of Brentwood and the ECD provides the authority for either party to transfer funds to the other party for use in purchasing equipment, employing personnel or carrying out programs or projects that will assist the ECD in fulfilling its purpose.

The FY 2017 Capital Improvements Plan included a project to replace the 911 Center's computer aided dispatch system. To fund this project, the ECD will transfer $750,000 in available cash reserves to the City's Capital Projects Fund. Recently, Finance Department staff was informed by the State ECD Board that an inter-local agreement is necessary before the ECD can legally transfer funds to another government entity. Once this agreement is in place, it is intended that $750,000 will be transferred from the ECD Fund to the City's Capital Projects Fund for the purchase of the new computer-aided dispatch software. The agreement will also allow any future transfers between the two entities, provided that the transfer is in furtherance of the ECD's purposes.

Staff recommendation

Staff recommends passage of the resolution authorizing the ECD Chairman to sign the interlocal agreement as submitted.
