O.2.a. Crystal Communications proposal-radio and repeaters purchase
Rationale:

The district has been reviewing options for replacement of its current handheld radio system.  Handheld radios are used for both internal communications at each site, and are programmed to provide districtwide communications in the event of an emergency or power outage.

The current radio system runs on an analog system and individual radios have surpassed their useful lifespan.  The main repeater for the system is located on a home in the Bay-O-Vista neighborhood.

District staff have chosen Crystal Communications, which would provide Kenwood radios.  Crystal Communications is a San Leandro company and has been our radio provider for decades.

The attached proposal includes 180 total radios (100 basic and 80 more advanced units).  The proposal also includes installation of three repeaters on district buildings to increase coverage and dependability.  We expect the three repeaters will be installed at FTK, Bancroft, and in on our maintenance building, however locations may change based on additional analysis by the company.  The district would keep approximately 40 newer digital-capable radios that we own that are compatible with the new system.

The proposal includes a $50 trade-in for each analog radio currently in our inventory, as well as a $40 to $50 rebate (rebate check is sent after purchase).

Staff is recommending approval of the attached requisition for $77,907.67 plus 10% contingency to cover additional radios, accessories, and potential programming needs for our 40 existing units.  The total approval amount requested is $85,700.  When received, rebate amounts will be deposited in the bond fund.

Replacement of handheld radios was part of the original Measure J1 budget in the area of security.

 
Recommended Motion:

 Approve $85,700 for 180 radios and 3 repeaters for district communications from Measure J1 (Security).
