Summary
A majority of the Police Department’s current inventory of radios are reaching end-of-life and will lose the functionality of communicating directly with many law enforcement entities operating on the Greater Austin/Travis Regional Radio System (GATRRS), the radio network serving Travis County public safety organizations. The purchase and financing of 110 Motorola NEXT radios from Motorola Solutions will allow the Pflugerville Police Department to maintain compliance with the Criminal Justice Information Service (CJIS) which requires the use of equipment and software that has not reached end-of-life and is currently a product that is supported by the vendor.
