(Ordinance 2016-29) (Police <br />Department) <br />Council President Saponaro asked, discussion? Chief, I know that we have talked about this, but <br />just so people that have not signed up, we can at least get something in our Minutes with the <br />information. <br />Chief Edelman replied, sure. The County has a 911 system which is virtually used for <br />cellphones. What the Cellular 911 does is it pinpoints your location not only horizontally but <br />vertically. If you are in a building, it can tell us what floor you are on, almost to what room you <br />are in in the building if you use the app to alert us that you are having an emergency, whether it's <br />police, fire or EMS. It's very effective. It works within 3 meters. It can tell us where you are. We have the ability to geolocate within certain parameters. It's a tremendous system for police, <br />fire and.EMS. The cities around us have started using it. So with them; we have the ability to <br />widen our geofencing to include Highland Heights, Mayfield Heights and the other cities around <br />us. The more communities that use Cellular 911, the more effective it becomes. We were the <br />first one in this area to use it. So far so good. It's been very successful. <br />A resident asked, what do we need to do to use this? <br />Chief Edelman replied, all you have to do is download the app, it's free. <br />And what's it called? <br />Chief Edelman replied, it's called Cellular 911, Your 911. If you call my dispatch center at 461- <br />1234, we can walk you through it. Council President Saponaro sta.ted, thank you Chief. Any other discussion? <br /> <br />There was none. <br />ROLL CALL: AYES: All Motion Carried <br />NAYS: None Expenditure Authorized <br />1Vlotion to authorize expenditure in the amount of S7,560.00 to Treasurer, State of <br />Ohio, for 1WIARCS radio services for 2019.
