TO: DAKOTA COUNTY CHIEFS OF POLICE
FROM: CHIEF OF POLICE, VILLAGE OF EAGAN
SUBJECT: Dakota County Radio Communication Grant
On 4 June 1973, Ward Montgomery advised nae that the APCO Review Board
approved the extra frequency for Dakota County (for Apple Valley, Farmington,
Lakeville). Also, the total grant for Dakota:County's radio equipment is
going to be $242,625. Of this, the various departments in Dakota County
are going to be asked to come up with a total of $8,644 in cash.
- This grant application must be signed through the county, however,
because the county has the largest part of their soft-match to match this
grant, it reduces everyone else's cash outlay for radios. If everyone
purchasing radios through this grant paid $192.09 for each mobile radio,
- we could come up with the cash needed for this grant.
Here is a list of the,_,communities and haw; many mobile units they are
purchasing
Apple Valle; 3
Lakeville 4--
Farmington
-'Farmington. 4
Rosemount 3
Dakota County 2
Hastings 6
Eagan 6
Inver Grove Heights 3
West St. Paul S`'`
Mendota Heights 3
South St. Paul 6
Lilydale 2
Total A7
The Dakota County Sheriff's office is supplying most of the soft-match;
therefore, Ward Montgomery feels that excluding their two units, :we would
need a total of 45 mobile radios. By multiplying 45 times $192.090 we can
come up with the total cash required. Each corrmnity must pass a resolution
stating their total dollar allotment, which they would pay through the county.
In turn, the county would then be the Grantee and supply the total cash needed.
This must be done very soon because this Grant will go before Rogion G during
the week of June 11th, and it will be before the Governor's Crime Commission
during the third week of June. It is thought that sometime in July or August
