Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council <br />Monday, March 16, 2015 <br />Page 15 <br />Saponaro just mentioned, is that we would have a lot of input into the day to day operations <br />and the practices and procedures of how they run that dispatch center. Simply put, it's <br />because they don't have the experience and input. They will be relying on us for that. The <br />Fire Chief and I and the other Chiefs involved with CECOMS will actually be on the <br />ground level working with CECOMS to put this together to make sure that things are done <br />the way we want them to in the Hillcrest area. We have certain procedures in place that we <br />have been using for the past 30 years since SPAN has been in existence. They work for us. - <br />We don't want to just forget.about those just because we are going somewhere else. The <br />way we do things is designed around service to the coinmunity. We are going to inake sure <br />that that continues to happen. That's one of the overriding factors that Chagriri Valley just <br />couldn't do. With Chagrin Valley, we would have been 1 of 13 voices. They have already <br />gotten their procedures in place with their day to day operations which means going into it <br />we would have to say, okay we are not going to do things our way anyinore, we are going <br />to have to do it their way. <br />The other overriding factor, and this is something that nobody else could coine close to, is <br />CECOMS answers all cellular 911 calls. Anybody else, no matter which dispatch center it <br />is, CECOMS would answer it and transfer the call to that dispatch center. <br />Mr. S.aponaro stated, which is currently happening today for the Village. <br />Chief Edelinan stated, which is currently happening today in our dispatch center. By going <br />with CECOMS, that direct communication, from the point that call is answered to the point <br />the policeman or firefighter gets to that scene drastically reduces that response tiine. That's <br />soinething the other dispatch centers can't even come close to. <br />Council President Buckholtz asked, so this is a real sharing of knowledge and procedures <br />and practices? In other words, they don't have it set in stone, they are looking to you for <br />guidance on how to set the system up itself, is that what you are saying? <br />Chief Edelman replied, yes. <br />Council President Buckholtz continued, as opposed to going into an ongoing process where <br />we have to conform to their every last thing? <br />Chief Edelman replied, basically they would be conforming to us rather than the other way <br />around. Add to that, they are building a brand new multi-million dollar emergency <br />operations center. They are breaking ground April 3rd in Broadview Heights. It's all state <br />of the art communications and emergency operations system that we will be a part of. <br />Mr. Jerome added, this is going to follow what State law wants us to do. If we went with <br />Chagrin Valley, they are not going to fit under State law as it is now, correct? <br />Chief Edelman replied, I will let Gino speak a little bit about that better. He can articulate <br />that better than I can. Are you talking in terms of the 911 funding?
