City of Ramsey <br /> <br />15153 Nowthen BoulevardN.W., Anoka, Minnesota 55303 · (612~ 427-1410 <br /> <br />POLICE DEPARTMENT <br /> <br />January 28, 1979 <br /> <br />To: City Council <br />From: Chief Auspos <br />Re: Hand-held Radio <br /> <br />In 1978 I submitted to Anoka County Central Communications, at the <br />request of Harry Hillegas, then director of that agency, a list of <br />radio equipment requirements for 1979. In that list I asked for <br />two hand-held radios with charger units to add to!.the one unit as- <br />signed previously to Ramsey. I asked for two in the hope that at <br />least one of them would be approved. Earlier this month, after the <br />board approved the county budget, I checked with Central Communica- <br />tions and found that my request was scratched off and the five units <br />to be purchased this year are assigned to other cities. <br /> <br />I contacted Undersheriff Don Dwyer, acting director of Central Com~ <br />munications, ~6'~qu~e about this and'was advised that a committee <br />of the Joint Law Enforcement Council had decided who would get the <br />equipment. He further advised that any appeal to this decision <br />would have to be directed to the Joint Council. I did this (see <br />attached letter) and was told after that body met that their deci- <br />sion was to hold to the original findings of the Operations Commit- <br />tee and that the Ramsey police would no receive another hand-held <br />radio. <br /> <br />It is my contention that the Ramsey Police department is entitled <br />to at least one additional radio/charger unit since the original <br /> <br /> <br />
