Absent: Donna Scott
CALL TO ORDER
The meeting was called to order at 3:37 p.m. by Jim Bums.
APPROVAL OF PREVIOUS MEETING MINUTES
Motion to approve the previous meeting minutes was made by Timothy Michaels and seconded by
JoAnn Foley. Motion carried.
AUTHORIZE PAYMENT OF INVOICES
Three invoices from SBC/Ameritech for wireless 911 in the amounts of $318.40
(M=Foley,2"d=Michael) ,$10.69 (M=Foley, 2"d=Crawford) and $508.59 (M=Foley, 2"d Crawford)
were submitted for payment. Motions carried. An invoice from Motorola for the Printrak
Maintenance Agreement $7,288.25 was submitted for payment. A motion was made by Tim
Michael and seconded by Pat Crawford to pay the invoice. Motion carried.
STATUS REPORTS:
Jim Bums advised the Board of the progress of the CAD Project. Kick-off meetings have been held
and the project team has been assembled. The first invoice has been paid for$400,000 from E911
funds.Installation dates have been tentatively set for early May with project completion no later than
December,but hopefully September.
Jim Bums advised the Board that we have begun talking to South Elgin PD about joining us in
emergency preparedness and inner-operable communications. This discussion also includes Aurora
and Naperville.
OLD BUSINESS
NEW BUSINESS
Jim Bums spoke of an article from KHOU.com, a Dallas Texas television station about a home
invasion that caused an issue due to Voice Over IP (VoIP). A child witnessed her parents being
stabbed by several home invaders in their home. The child picked up the family phone,which was a
VoIP and dialed 911, but nothing happened. The child tried a second phone and again dialed 911,
with no results. This is a sad and predictable example of the significant shortfalls of VoIP phones
that do not have true E911 abilities. The Board has made a concerted effort to make sure our users
understand the current significant shortfalls of many VoIP vendors and the lack of E911 service.
ADJOURNMENT
A motion was made by JoAnn Foley and seconded by Pat Crawford to adjourn the meeting.Motion
carried. The meeting was adjourned at 4:00 P.M.

available for occupancy would be early 2006. He stated that we continue to meet with City Hall to
discuss the issue.
OLD BUSINESS

of the new Telecommunications tax as opposed to using E9-1-1 funds. These positions include the

E9-1-1 Switch Upgrade

Rather than moving it to a different location at this time,it will remain in its current location on the
second of City Hall. Future plans call for incorporating a purpose built ECC into Fire Station 8 when
it is built sometime in 2008.
OLD BUSINESS
Jim Burns advised the Board that the ALERTS users had voted on the proposal for privatization of
the ALERTS network. He reported that there was only one dissenting vote. He added that the
ALERTS Advisory Board would now move forward to place legislation in front of the State congress
to accomplish this.
NEW BUSINESS
Jim Burns advised the Board that Sprint,in partnership with Mediacom,was intending to offer VoIP
service in Elgin. The service would be for non-mobile customers. They claim that they will offer
full E9-1-1 capability. They also state that they will be collecting and remitting a 9-1-1 surcharge.
Ed Trob indicated successful tests of the E9-1-1 capabilities of the Sprint E9-1-1 VoIP solution have
been conducted in Woodford,Lee and Whiteside counties. He added that QuadCom,a consolidated
dispatch center in our area, has also done successful testing.

backup 9-1-1 trunks to the ECC. He advised that we would incur approximately a$700 per month
additional cost for the new trunks.
OLD BUSINESS
Jim Burns advised the Board that the take over of ALERTS by the users was close to being finalized.
It appears that the State will capitulate and turn over all equipment and monies to the users.
•
NEW BUSINESS
Jim Burns advised the Board that WOW cable was offering VoIP phone service to its customers.
WOW did some testing with our Center and the 9-1-1 calls that came in looked just like any other 9-
1-1 call that we normally receive. He also reported that we had received a surcharge check from
WOW. He added that the FCC should have an order coming out shortly that would force all VoIP
vendors to provide true E9-1-1 service to their customers. The order,however,would not address
the surcharge issue.

E9-1-1 Switch Upgrade
New E911 lines are being run and we will filed with the FCC to change our backup plan.
The Board made a motion,Motion by Pat Crawford and Second by Donna Scott,directing Chairman
Burns to draft a letter to the FCC formally requesting a modification to our E911 backup plan.The
plan will have us switching our E911 lines over to South Elgin PD if needed until we can staff the
EOC room at 150 Dexter Court. When we have the backup staffed, we can then switch all of our
E911 lines over to the EOC. This will allow us to act as our own backup for the first time.
OLD BUSINESS
The Board has asked Chairman Burns to contact Deputy Chief Bob Duffy, to see if he would be
interested in filling the position of Chairman upon Chairman Burns'retirement at the end of the year.
""" A recommendation must then be made to the Mayor for consideration for appointment.
The Communications Director's position has been announced and applications are being accepted.
The position has been upgraded, with a higher wage package and higher education requirements.
Appointment of the new director is expected in February of 2006.
Phase 2 wireless is moving along. We have notified the wireless carriers of our intent to begin
accepting Phase 2 latitude and longitude information. We are on hold pending a response from the
carriers.All necessary components are on-line and ready to go.We estimate full Phase 2 compliance
in early 2006.
