Request/Subject

Amendment No. One to the CenturyLink® 9-1-1 Agreement for Next Generation Management Services.

Background Information

In November 2016, an agreement between the Gila County Sheriff's Office and CenturyLink® for Next Generation 9-1-1 Managed Services was approved by the Board of Supervisors. As the turn up date for the transition from analog to digital 9-1-1 in Gila County gets closer (October 5, 2017), CenturyLink® had identified items in the original agreement that need to be added or amended. Descriptions follow in the evaluation section.

Evaluation

1. New Section 4.1 CPI Adjustment: the impact of this additional section defines the parameters allowing CenturyLink® to present CPI (Customer Price Index) adjustments to the customer and the options for the customer to accept or reject an adjustment. At this time, CPI is payable through an annual operational budget authorized by the state legislature and managed through the Arizona Department of Administration 9-1-1 Program. As the CenturyLink® customer, Gila County Sheriff's Office will work with the state 9-1-1 Program Manager and CenturyLink® for consensus on any action or proposed action related to this amendment.

2. Section 12.1 Legal Notices: An updated address for all legal notices sent to CenturyLink®.

3. Section 3.1 Miscellaneous: Defines the effective date of this amendment.

Conclusion

At this time the changes proposed in Amendment No. One have no immediate operational or financial impact the the original agreement.

Sheriff J. Adam Shepherd recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve the Chairman's signature on Amendment No. One to the CenturyLink® 9-1-1 Agreement for Next Generation Management Services.

Suggested Motion
