Brothers and Sisters,

As you are painfully aware, we are experiencing dispatching failures in our current Fire and EMS dispatching system. By far, most problems occur when we rely on Lifecom for the timely transfer of accurate information. This is not new. We have been working behind the scenes to keep the County Supervisors informed on what is going on. in fact, up until about a month ago, the City and County were involved in mediation. All reports we recieved about mediation was that it looked good and that a resolution was close. Then it fell apart! Now it looks as if the only resolution will be accomplished in court.
