Home My WebLink AboutDocumentation_Regular_Tab 8B_1/8/1998 MEMO . . To: Thomas G. Bradford, Village Manager From: Stephen Allison, Chief of Policeityc- Subject: NAMAC Meeting Date: December 4, 1997 Attached for your information is an issues subcommittee report distributed at the NAMAC meeting today. Also discussed was the letter that I sent you recently from Director Riggs concerning charges for dispatch services effective October 1, 1998. The resulting discussions seemed to be more urgent and less political. I think that it is important that we stay involved in these discussions and we need to be in a position to vote in the proceedings. For this reason I am suggesting that Chief Weinand and I be named as alternate representatives to NAMAC by the Village Council. One of us always attends the meetings. Attached is a NAMAC roster which shows that this is a practice followed by many member agencies. • 3uNO BE.0 itt N90.4,10,00 -C 11- MITCHELL L.

Tyre, Issues Subcommittee Chair Date: 12-02-97 Subj: Issues Subcommittee Report At the last NAMAC meeting, I was tasked with heading a group to identify issues, alternatives and recommendations regarding the issues. In addition to myself, the following persons were asked to serve on the subcommittee: • Chief Jim Weinand Chief Mike Wells Chief Bruce Sekeres Chief Jeff Lindskoog Radio Expert Ernie Carr The meeting was held on November 24, 1997 at the Juno Beach Town Center, and present were Sekeres, Lindskoog, Carr and myself. The other members were unable to attend. At the meeting, we attempted to identify several issues brought to the attention of the full NAMAC group, and also decided on some recommended courses of action. Please keep in mind that the numbers presented in this report come from the following sources: professional experience and judgment,the feasibility study conducted by Mizelle, Hodges and Associates, our own opinions, and best guesses. These figures are not etched in granite and should be considered general guideposts, not final budgetary figures.
