He addressed three issues to be <br />considered in his request: Will this decentralization benefit the 911 System Countywide; <br />does this request promote a Countywide cost savings; and are there reasonable alternatives. <br /> <br />The presentation was followed by a discussion among the Commissioners <br />regarding the action taken earlier in the year by the Board. Chairman Wheeler pointed out <br />that staff was directed to consolidate the County 911 System, and he stressed this <br />recommendation was voted on and “nothing was done”. Mr. Baird replied that and he felt <br />it would come back to the Board, and he took complete responsibility for the lack of action. <br /> <br />Commissioner Davis was not going to support a system that places anyone on hold, <br />and Vice Chair Bowden felt consolidation was the way of the future, and she opposed this <br />request, and she did not change her vote from a year ago. <br /> <br />December 19, 2006 21 <br /> <br />
