11 <br /> <br />Jamie Sykes covered the history to this point. He said the total cost was $281,058, <br />which was less than expected. He said this cost covers the hardware, software, accessories, <br />maintenance, and digital evidence storage for 5 years; and prior to the conclusion of the 5-year <br />term, replacement devices will be issued at no additional cost. <br />Jamie Sykes said during the first phase they will roll out 75 units, which will cover the <br />entire patrol division and all the detention staff immediately. <br />Chair Dorosin said asked if the timetable for implementation could be reviewed, if the <br />BOCC were to approve this tonight. <br />Sheriff Blackwood said he was told the cameras are on the shelf, and available as soon <br />as practical and possible. <br />Sheriff Blackwood said they should be operational within 90 days. <br />John Roberts said the corporation’s representatives were open-minded to his suggested <br />changes. <br /> <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Rich, seconded by Commissioner Price for the <br />Board to approve the Motorola Solutions Subscription Services Agreement for Digital Evidence <br />Management, subject to final review by the County Attorney. <br /> <br />VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br /> <br />c. Triangle Water Supply Partnership Memorandum of Agreement <br />The Board considered entering into a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with Triangle <br />local government jurisdictions and their water supply authorities to create a successor to the <br />Jordan Lake Partnership (JLP), to be called the Triangle Water Supply Partnership (TWSP), a <br />regional water supply planning organization and authorize the Manager to sign. <br /> <br />Craig Benedict, Planning Director, presented this item: <br />BACKGROUND: <br />This item was previously considered by the Board at the October 16, 2018 regular meeting, at <br />which time the questions below were posed. Staff has provided responses below: <br /> <br />1. Why the name change from the Jordan Lake Partnership (JLP) to the Triangle Water <br /> Supply Partnership (TWSP)? Response: The name change reflects the regional <br />coalition with the addition of Johnston County and Harnett County who, while completely <br />integrated in the Triangle planning region, draw water supplies from outside the Jordan <br />Lake watershed. <br /> <br />2. How is this new TWSP agreement different from the JLP agreement? Answer: The <br />primary difference is that the financial structure of the TWSP is more of a subscription <br />model; whereas, the JLP was more of a project-based model. This will smooth out the <br />cost shares (dues) and, with five-year planning of projects, improve the predictability of <br />budget allocations. The TWSP MOA also better facilitates project implementation by <br />fractions of the membership; for instance, two cities who wish to interconnect. <br /> <br />3. When is this ratification expected? Response: All other parties have signed and are <br />awaiting Orange County, although technically speaking the TWSP now exists, as at <br />least two of the members have signed the MOA. <br /> <br />4. Why aren’t Chapel Hill and Carrboro part of this agreement? Response: Orange Water
