agreement for combined public safety dispatching and jail
services for the cities of Keller, Southlake, and Colleyville.
Background
Information:
This item is an amendment to an existing interlocal
agreement that was first established in 2010. The
agreement for combined jail and public safety dispatching
services provided for a term of six years, with two five year
auto renewals. Cost is adjusted each year based on the
participating agency's usage and Keller's capital and
operating costs. This amendment creates performance
measures relating to the accuracy of the reporting data that
we receive from Keller, and also creates one central
municipal judge for probable cause hearings, prisoner
magistration when necessary, and jail operations for all
partner cities.
Financial
Considerations:
Funding for this service is accounted for in the DPS support
budget. After receiving Keller's final cost estimate, this item
will exceed the budgeted amount by $12,500. This amount
will be absorbed into existing public safety budgets for a net
general fund budget effect of zero.
Financial Impact:
This item will exceed the budget by $12,500, but will be
absorbed within existing public safety budgets for a net
effect of zero.
