DESCRIPTION
The US Department of Justice (DOJ) has approved funding for Emergency Management in the FY24 COPS Technology and Equipment Program to implement Motorola Dynamic System Resilience (DSR) for the Public Radio System.

FISCAL IMPACT
With the approval of the grant fund acceptance and budget resolution item earlier on this agenda, the funds are available in the Special Revenue Grant Fund.
