Findlay Looking To Upgrade Its Public Safety Software System
11/15/17 – 3:10 A.M.
The City of Findlay is in the market for a new public safety software system. Safety director Paul Schmelzer said that their current system lacks efficiency.
The current system hasnt been updated in over 15 years. Fire chief Josh Eberle said that there are too many steps to take to respond to a call. This effects efficiency and can tie up dispatch lines. Schmelzer said he has been working on finding deals for different systems.
Some of the deals are under a time constraint. Schmelzer asked the appropriations committee to recommend approving $725,000 for a new system. The committee unanimously voted to recommend appropriating the money.
