Emergency Communications Modifications
What changed between versions
Nonvoting board members are now prohibited from attending closed portions of board meetings, increasing transparency for those members.
The PSAP advisory committee must now meet a minimum of four times per year, up from the previous unspecified frequency.
The requirement to review and update the comprehensive strategic plan changed from an annual cycle to a three-year cycle, reducing administrative burden.
The deadline for the PSAP advisory committee to propose updates to the CAD-to-CAD protocol was changed from September 30, 2020, to a recurring requirement of at least every three years.
The requirement that all PSAPs in a county must qualify for funding was removed, allowing individual PSAPs to receive funds even if others in the same county do not qualify.
The PSAP advisory committee composition was expanded to include representatives from special service districts and specific county classes (first through sixth class).
Several technical corrections were made, including fixing a typo in the definition of 'Required transfer rate' and correcting the citation for emergency medical service dispatch centers.
