Approve Resolution R2020-032. | | |
| | | | | | | | Discussion:
The Shakopee Police Department is applying to a COPS School Violence Prevention Program grant. The application is requesting $94,540 to install a Public Safety Hybrid Distributed Antenna System (DAS) at the Shakopee High School which will consist of a parabolic donor antenna on the roof oriented toward the closest ARMER radio site, a Class-A Digital Fiber DAS Master Unit, 3 Fiber Remote Units, and a network of coaxial cable and antennas installed throughout the building to distribute signal. This technology is needed due to the loss of radio signal in various parts of the school building which is a safety concern for our school resource officers, teachers, staff and students. | | |
| | | | | | | | Budget Impact:
The COPS School Violence Prevention Program will provide up 75% of the grant request. A 25% match is required. Match amount is dependent on agreements reached with the Shakopee Public School and is variable at this time. | | |
