Wireless 9-1-1
Legislative Initiative to Remove 2008 Sunset
Wisconsin APCO (Association of Public Safety Communications
Officials) and NENA (National Emergency Number Association)
Chapters are requesting LIO input and comment on a
legislative initiative which would have significant impact
on providing financial relief for counties to handle
on-going support or implementation costs associated with
Wireless 9-1-1 and other technologies.
This initiative
includes removal or modification of the sunset provision
which takes effect in late 2008 from the initial 36-month
period designed for implementation to an additional 60-month
period for "on-going" operations and to assist counties who
did not apply for the first round of grants implement
wireless 9-1-1.
