Re: Resolution 03-21— An Intergovernmental Agreement with the Franklin
County Commissioners for the purpose of receiving funds disbursed from the
Wireless 9-1-1 Governmental Assistance Fund for the answering of 9-1-1
calls from wireless telephones
Background
Attached for your consideration is Resolution 03-21, authorizing the City Manager to enter into
an intergovernmental agreement with the Franklin County Commissioners for the purpose of
receiving funds disbursed from the Wireless 9-1-1 Governmental Assistance Fund for the
answering of 9-1-1 calls from wireless telephones.
Adopted in 2006 and amended in 2008 and 2012, Ohio Revised Code §128 establishes a $.25
per month user fee on every wireless phone bill to reimburse local public safety answering
points for costs associated with receiving 9-1-1 calls placed from wireless telephones. As
directed by law, the Wireless 9-1-1 Governmental Assistance Fund is administrated by the
county commissioners, with funds being disbursed in accordance with the formula set by the
local 9-1-1 Planning Committee. To facilitate disbursement, local agencies are required to
maintain a current intergovernmental agreement. Our most recent agreement expired at the end
of 2020. This new agreement will allow us to continue to receive funding disbursements through
December 31, 2021. The Franklin County 9-1-1 planning committee revised the disbursement
plan effective in 2018 to accommodate the reduction in funded answering points from five to
four as directed by Ohio Revised Code §128.57. Dublin will continue to be one of the four
funded answering points.
Attached you will find a copy of the proposed intergovernmental agreement between the City of
Dublin and the Franklin County Commissioners. The agreement includes the resolution passed
by the Franklin County 9-1-1 Planning Committee that establishes how funds will be disbursed
to the local governmental entities. Once the intergovernmental agreement is executed by the
parties, Franklin County will continue disbursements on a monthly basis for the duration of the
fund. Disbursements received from the Wireless 9-1-1 Governmental Assistance Fund must be
used in accordance with Revised Code §128.571 which includes those costs incurred in the
designing, upgrading, purchasing and maintaining equipment as well as the training of staff
used to answer wireless 9-1-1 calls. Up to fifty percent of the disbursements received may be
used for personnel costs once all equipment purchases have been completed.
Recommendation
Recommend passage of Resolution 03-21.
