OWASSO,
AGREEMENT REGIONAL ENHANCED 911 BOARD
WHEREAS, the City of Owasso, Oklahoma has participated in the Regional Enhanced 911
Board since its creation in 1989, for the purpose of sharing equipment and service costs to
implement enhanced, landline 911 in the city; and,
WHEREAS, the current 911 equipment is old, no longer warranted by the manufacturer, and
incapable of locating cellular 911 callers; and,
WHEREAS, the jurisdictions of Rogers County, Claremore, Collinsville, Glenpool, Jenks,
Owasso, Sand Springs, Sapulpa, Skiatook and Tulsa desire to cooperate in the purchase and use
of new 911 equipment in order to save money and maximize the opportunity for inter- operability
in case of a disaster; and,
WHEREAS, the Regional Enhanced 911 Board created in 1989 is not structured to share the
costs of new equipment and services in an efficient or fair manner. A new interlocal board needs
to be created with voting members that share the expenses of the equipment and non- voting
members that participate in information sharing; and,
WHEREAS, the Regional 911 Board is a new board created by the Interlocal Cooperation
Act, with the purposes outlined above; and,
WHEREAS, the new Regional 911 Board has received preliminary approval from the
Attorney General's office and awaits final execution by the participating jurisdictions.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City of Owasso, Oklahoma approves
participation in the Regional 911 Board. The Mayor is authorized to execute the agreement in
proper form thereby entering into the Interlocal Agreement creating the Regional 911 Board.
