Budget Message
Service
Prior to 1990, many jurisdictions in Weld County had limited 911 service. Some
jurisdictions had no method to report emergencies using the telephone system. To serve
the public welfare and the best interests of all citizens in Weld County, 43 government
entities within Weld County agreed to form the Weld 911 Emergency Telephone Service
Authority to implement enhanced 911 emergency telephone capabilities for every
telephone in Weld County.
Currently E-911 is a telephone system utilizing the single three-digit number 911 for
reporting police, fire, medical, or other emergency situations. A call on the E-911 system
automatically displays the location of the caller's telephone number, address for the
telephone, and other supplemental information of the calling party's location at a
Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP). There is a single PSAP in the Weld County Regional
Communications Center serving 20 law enforcement agencies, 19 fire districts, and four
EMS services. Individual response personnel for each jurisdiction are notified of the
emergency from the PSAP.
The Weld 911 Emergency Telephone Service Authority is a separate legal entity
responsible for the administration of the E-911 emergency telephone service program
for all of Weld County, except the Town of Erie. The Authority Board must determine the
surcharge rate each year, no later than September 1st, and fix the new rate to take
effect commencing with the first billing period of each telephone customer on, or
following, the next January 1st.
Funds collected from the surcharge must be spent to pay for dispatch and computer
support staff, equipment costs, installation costs, the monthly recurring charges, and, if
monies are available after such charges are fully paid, such funds may be expended
on emergency medical services provided by telephone. Any funds collected and
unexpended at the end of the budget year are carried over to the next succeeding
year to be used in supplying E-911 emergency telephone service.
With the new era of smart phones, the public's expectation will be that citizens should
be able to call for emergency help and engage with their government service
organizations in the same ways they communicate every day. Next Generation 911 (NG
911) is the initiative aimed at improving public emergency communications services to
support the modern, mobile communication revolution. NG 911 systems will be
comprised of Emergency Services IP networks, hardware, software, operational policies
and procedures which will enable the public to transmit voice, texts, images, and videos
to a 911 emergency call center (PSAP).The PSAP of the future will also be able to receive
data from advanced automatic collision notification systems, medical alert systems,
and environmental sensors. NG 911 PSAP's will be able to issue emergency alerts to
2
wireless devices in the area via voice or text messages and highway alert system.
The NG911 era will cause the Weld 911 Emergency Telephone Service Authority Board
to examine its service priorities and funding requirements to meet these service priorities.
Although the funds collected from the surcharge can be spent to pay for dispatch and
computer support staff, equipment costs, installation costs, the monthly recurring
charges, and emergency medical services provided by telephone the increased costs
of the NG 911 system will require the funds to be spent on the primary mission of the
authority, which is to provide a secure environment for emergency communications
ensuring the delivery of calls, messages, and data to the appropriate PSAP and any
other appropriate emergency entity. This new era will mean that funds must be spent in
the priority order of acquiring the necessary NG 911 equipment and technology,
installation and maintenance costs of the equipment and technology, the monthly
recurring charges for the system, and funding an appropriate replacement reserve.
Then and only then, when those essential system requirements are fully funded, can the
authority board consider funding additional items such as dispatch and computer staff
costs, other services and supplies, training, etc. that have been funded in recent years
as legislative changes have expanded the use of the surcharge collections.
The Authority Board may do any act as may be necessary to continue operation of the
911 emergency telephone service including, but not limited to, the ability to negotiate
with equipment vendors and service suppliers to obtain the benefit of technological
developments. These benefits must improve or enhance the quality and efficiency of
911 emergency telephone service to the users.
In September 2013, Weld County took over the management of the Weld County
Regional Communications Center that provides E911 dispatch services to 18 law
enforcement agencies, 20 fire districts, and four EMS services. On February 16, 2021, the
E911 Authority entered into an intergovernmental agreement (IGA) with Weld County
to provide dispatch services and information technology services for E911 system, plus
transferred all capital equipment to Weld County. The Weld County Director of
Communications and Public Safety has developed a 2026-2030 Capital Plan for E911
that will require an annually in contribution to Weld County per the IGA to support the
capital needs and keep the Weld County E91 1 system at a state-of-the-art standard.The
contribution for capital in 2026 is an average of the upcoming 5 years for Public Safety
Communications and will be $2,063,000.
On April 15, 2014, the Weld 911 Emergency Telephone Service Authority Board adopted
a fund balance policy that there shall be a base fund balance amount determined
annually which will be retained for the three percent (3%) TABOR reserve and other
contingencies. That amount for the current year and subsequent years until changed
shall be $500,000. Per the IGA approved on February 16, 2021, with the base fund
balance of $500,000, plus the capital needs satisfied, the remaining annual revenue
resources will be contributed toward the operational costs of the Weld County Regional
3
Communications Center. In 2026 that amount will be $5,807,482 for operations and
$1,174,518 for information technology services for the computer aided dispatch (CAD)
system. The estimated ending fund balance will be $500,000, a very comfortable cash
balance to deal with any emergency needs. The excess fund balance from the prior
fiscal year shall be transferred in the current budget year once the audit of the prior
fiscal year has been completed.
The primary funding resource for E-911 service is the surcharge established in 1988, at
fifty cents per month, per telephone service. Beginning in 1998, the surcharge was also
extended to wireless phones. Effective January 1, 2009, the surcharge went up to
seventy cents per month, per telephone service. In 2018 the Authority requested that
the PUC increased the surcharge to $1 .20. The Authority Board, in accordance with
statute and the IGA set the emergency telephone charge $1.20 beginning January 1,
2019, and $1 .72 beginning February 1, 2022. The revenue from the $1.72 surcharge and
surplus revenues carried forward from previous years will produce sufficient revenues in
2026 to fund expenditures authorized by the intergovernmental agreement and current
legislation, and transition to the NG 911 system.
Budgetary Accounting Basis:
The Basis of Accounting refers to when revenue and expenditures or expenses are
recognized in the accounts and reported in financial statements. The Basis for
Accounting relates to the timing of the measurements made regardless of the
measurement focus applied.
Revenue and expenditures or expenses are accounted for using a modified accrual
method. This method recognizes revenue in the year in which it becomes both
measurable and available as net current assets or, when revenue is of a material
amount, planned for but not yet received. Revenue in the modified accrual method
primarily consists of surcharges collected even though the surcharge may not have yet
been remitted by telephone companies in the service area. Unbilled charges for
services are recorded in the appropriate fund at year end. Expenditures are generally
recorded when the related fund liability is incurred.
On February 16, 2021, the Board entered into an agreement with Weld County to
transfer all assets to Weld County and to contribute funds for capital each year that
Weld County will own. E-91 1 Authority will no longer own or depreciate assets on their
balance sheet.
