TRUSSVILLE — The Trussville City Council on Tuesday approved of spending more than $110,000 on a bi-directional amplifier and distributed antenna system for public safety radio transmissions for the four schools in the city.
Allcomm Wireless, Inc. was the approved low bidder at $110,873.65.
The city council last week also voted to return property to the Emergency Management Agency it had requested be returned. A 2004 Ford F550 mobile command center, 2007 Ford F350 special operations vehicle and a 2008 Better Built eight-ton trailer will be returned to EMA. Those vehicles had been used by the Trussville Fire Department.
The city had used those vehicles “by transporting this equipment to designated sites in time of disaster,” according to the approved resolution.
The city council also awarded a contract to SHI for $28,016.65 for National Crime Information Center authentication software.
