The Tarrant County 9-1-1 (TC911) District's 2017 Public Safety Answering Points (PSAP) Assistance Program was initiated to help ensure emergency response communication units throughout the county are provided up-to-date equipment, operating tools and training. To receive reimbursement, a PSAP must expend a specified amount of funds in direct support of their emergency response communication units. Eligible expenses include 9-1-1 related equipment, furniture, hardware, training, and other items with direct linkages to emergency response communication efforts. The City of Fort Worth's Fire Department has been receiving annual awards since 2010.
The Fire Department will use its reimbursement to replace the consoles at the Communications Center. For the 2017 PSAP Assistance Program, the Fire Department anticipates using its reimbursement as follows: Description | Total | Six consoles | $93,738.17 | Radio console relocation | $28,665.00 | Electrical and network relocation | $6,124.47 | Total | $128,527.64 |
