Most of the existing radios are 25 watts <br />and will reach tol approximately the City limits, although we try to put higher wattage radios <br />(approximately 40 watts) in vehicles that might travel outside of the City. Quotes have been <br />obtained for a 25 :and a 40 watt radio that is compatible with our mobile base unit and consistent <br />with existing models. The cost of the 40 watt is only an additional $68. It would be desirable to <br />purchase the 40 matt and swap it into a vehicle that currently has a 25 watt and travels outside of <br />the City. The total cost of the 40 watt radio would be $522.19, which includes antenna, <br />installation, and sales tax. Ms. Hart noted that, while there is not dkect funding identified in the <br />Adopted 1996 Operating Budget, there remains sufficient funding available in the Council <br />Contingency. <br /> <br />Motion by Coun¢{lmember 'Zimmerman and secon'ded by Councilmember Beyer to recommend <br />Council adopt th~ resolution authorizing a budget amendment allocating $525 from the Council <br />contingency for the purchase of one mobile radio. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Hardin, Councilmembers Zimmerman, Beyer, Beahen and <br />Peterson. Voting No: None. <br /> <br />Finance Committee/May 28, 1996 <br /> Page I of 5 <br /> <br /> <br />
