The objective of the Illinois State Police (ISP) NG911 Expenses Grant Program is to fund regional hosted call handling position equipment to defray costs associated with the replacement or upgrade of 911 call handling positions that are Next Generation 911 capable.
BACKGROUND:
The City recently completed upgrading its Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP). To offset some of those costs, City staff applied for the NG911 grant for FY2024.

Expenses requested for this grant have been defined and are included in this resolution.
DISCUSSION:
This grant award allows for reimbursement up to $258,461.25 and may be used to reimburse procurements and personnel costs incurred through June 30, 2024.
Expenditures under this grant followed the city's procurement requirements as well as the requirements set by the Illinois State Police (ISP) NG911 Expenses Grant Program and all applicable state or federal regulations and have previously been submitted to Council via PSAP remodel resolutions.
Equipment and services identified as qualifying for this grant are shown below. The ISP award is also listed. A detailed breakdown is attached to this resolution.
