2016- 1258
• Call volume will be averaged over the prior four years to avoid an entity from having a spike in
costs due to an extraordinary event, such as a tornado.
• Cost for police dispatch and fire dispatch are different based upon the number of dispatch
positions to handle the call volume. Therefore, costs will be prorated between fire and law based
upon the percentage of the number of dispatch law and fire consoles.
• The total budget for operations for the Weld County Communication Center (WCRCC) shall be
determined annually. From the total for operational costs the amount reimbursed by the Weld
County E911 Authority for operations will be subtracted to determine a net cost of operations for
the WCRCC to be allocated to user agencies. The net operating costs for the WCRCC shall be
allocated between law and fire agencies based upon the number of dispatch positions for law and
the number of dispatch positions for fire divided by each of the total respective type of calls to
arrive at a cost per call for each type of call (law or fire) .
o The total cost for infrastructure depreciation for the Weld County Communication Center
(WCRCC) shall be determined annually. From the total cost of infrastructure depreciation the
amount attributed to infrastructure depreciation for the weld County E911 Authority will be
subtracted to determine a net cost of infrastructure depreciation for the WCRCC to be allocated
to user agencies. The net cost of infrastructure depreciation for the WCRCC shall be allocated
between law and fire agencies based upon the number of dispatch positions for law and the
number of dispatch positions for fire divided by each of the total respective type of calls to arrive
at a cost per call for each type of call, similar to the operational costs.
• The costs per call type (law or fire) will be multiplied times the call volume averaged over four
years for each law and fire agency to determine the total operational cost and cost for
infrastructure depreciation for each agency annually.
• From the above process the total annual costs for operations and infrastructure depreciation (less
the amount allocated to the E911 Authority) allocated to each law and fire agency will be
determined . Starting in 2016 each law and fire agency shall pay ten percent (10 /0) of the total
costs for operations and infrastructure depreciation allocated to each law and fire agency, in 2017
twelve and one-half percent ( 12 . 5%), in 2018 fifteen percent ( 15%), in 2019 seventeen and ones
half percent ( 17 , 5%) and in 2020 and beyond twenty percent (20%).
b. If the City/Town/District requests or requires additional emergency services above the current
service level as described in 1 (a), the City/Town/District will pay for the additional services in their
entirety above and beyond any allocation from the adopted methodology.
c. The cost basis for public safety dispatch services for the following year will be provided to the
City/Town/District by June 1 of each year.
d . The County reserves the right to periodically review the cost allocation methodology and make any
appropriate changes to the cost allocation methodology. Any such approved changes to the cost
allocation shall modify the cost allocation terms of this Agreement and be imposed pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement . If the cost allocation methodology change is uniformly applied to all like
users no amendment to this agreement is required.
