1. Approve the following Dispatching Service Interlocal Agreements:

City Commission Meeting · 2026-04-16 · agenda_item

This item concerns the approval of several interlocal agreements related to dispatching services. These agreements involve the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office, Brevard County Commissioners, Brevard County Fire Rescue, and Tyler Technology. The City Commission has recommended approval of these agreements. While a state bill regarding the consolidation of 911 dispatch services was pulled this year, it is expected to be brought forward next year, and these agreements are intended to get the city ahead of that potential change. The agreements are expected to result in zero operational cost, streamlined processes, and substantial cost savings for the city, while improving services and allowing agencies to work on the same systems. This early planning and potential future consolidation of dispatch services could create opportunities for businesses involved in government technology, public safety communications, and related administrative services. Engaging with city and county officials now could provide insight into future needs and procurement processes.
