O2O99- 350/
The back-up center will be tested 4 times a year to insure it is able to be up and
running in case of an emergency.
4. Funding for 3N or another system: Juan suggested that everyone think about
funding for 3N or other emergency notification system. Our current Intrado bill is
$120,000 a month. There would have to be action by the PUC if it was decided to
increase the surcharge .05 cents or more to fund this project. Discussion was had
on this subject. David Mathis stated that Intrado is very hard to send out a mass
mailing. He also advised we are paying .46 - .50 cents per phone.
Since there was no further business the meeting was adjourned
