On May 1, 2019, the Downey Police Department joined the Interagency Communications
Interoperability (ICI) regional radio network. ICI is an Ultra High Frequency (UHF) trunked radio
system. It is a shared system with components purchased and constructed by individual cities
and linked together through a microwave network in order to provide regional coverage. The
DOWNEY INNOVATION AND TECHNOLOGY TEAM: TECHNOLOGICAL UPGRADES TO POLICE
DEPARTMENT'S LEGACY RADIO SYSTEM
JULY 9, 2019
concept of ICI was born out of the need for its current member agencies to replace their aging
infrastructure.
Since moving to the ICI radio system, the Police Department has enjoyed a tremendous
improvement in radio traffic in and around the City. However, other City departments and
entities within the City can no longer listen to radio traffic or program the Police Department's
radio frequency into their radios. This causes communication issues when a department such
as Public Works needs to reach the Police Department over the radio.
The Police Department's "Legacy" radio program is currently serving as the back-up radio
system in the event the ICI radio network goes down. The current Legacy system is not a
reliable option as the radio infrastructure is antiquated, operates on a limited Very High
Frequency (VHF) channel and is not cost effective.
Staff has extensively researched various options for a back-up radio system that would increase
interoperability with City Departments and other entities, such as the Downey Unified School
District, while reducing costs. As such, the Police Department has determined that a proposal from
Commline, Inc. for an Emergency Disaster Repeater System would best fit the needs of the Police
Department. This system provides a back-up radio system for the Police Department in addition to
a City-wide mutual aid channel that is easily programmed into existing radios.
Efficiency and Adaptability
Quality of Life, Safety, and Infrastructure
FISCAL IMPACT
The attached proposal from Commline, Inc. is $37,300 and includes all radio infrastructure,
labor and FCC licensing. This radio system would not require annual fees as it would utilize
existing connectivity. In doing so, the City would be able to eliminate the phone lines for the
current Legacy system which would result in an annual savings of approximately $35,000 per
year.
