Title

AN ORDINANCE approving the King County Regional E-911 Strategic plan and establishing the King County regional E-911 advisory governance board.

Body

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

1.  In 2015, Ordinance 18139 set in motion the creation of the strategic plan for the King County regional E-911 system.

2.  Ordinance 18139 mandated a scoping plan to outline a process for the development of the strategic plan.  A scoping report was completed in May 2016 under the guidance of a leadership group composed of elected officials and key stakeholders.

3.  The scoping report was completed in June 2016.  The leadership group members continued their involvement in developing the regional E-911 strategic plan until their final meeting November 9, 2017, where they recommended the plan.

4.  The plan was developed through a robust, inclusive two-year process that included numerous regional partners and stakeholders working collaboratively to develop the strategic plan.  Approximately eighty participants served on one or more of the leadership group, the planning group and three task forces, which were:  governance; technology and operations; and finance.

5.  The plan recommends the establishment of an ongoing advisory governing board and provides strategic direction to King County regional E-911 and the public safety access point partners to address financial and technical challenges associated with implementing a new single platform technology system architecture for next generation 911 and ongoing operation of the regional E-911 system.

6.  Ordinance 18139 called for the creation of an interim E-911 advisory group to advise and consult with the King County E-911 program office regarding technology, financial and system operational issues until completion of the strategic plan and implementation of an ongoing decision making and/or governance system.

7.  The interagency advisory group has been functioning as an advisory body to the program office throughout the strategic plan development process.  The new advisory governing body recommended in the strategic plan is intended to replace the interagency advisory group.

                     BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF KING COUNTY:

                     SECTION 1.  The King County Regional E-911 Strategic Plan, Attachment A to this ordinance, along with the Appendices, Attachment B to this ordinance, are approved.

                     SECTION 2.  The governance and decision structure of the King County regional E-911 advisory governance board is approved as set forth in the King County Regional E-911 Strategic Plan, Attachment A to this ordinance, along with the Appendices, Attachment B to this ordinance.  The King County regional E-911 advisory governance board shall inform and advise the King County E-911 program office, the King County executive and the King County council, on subjects that effect the King County regional E-911 system and operations and finances of the public safety access points.  The Interim E-911 advisory group, established in Ordinance 18139, will be repealed, once this ordinance is enacted, in accordance with Ordinance 18139, Section 5.C.

                     SECTION 3.  The E-911 program office shall provide an annual report to the regional policy committee on implementation of the strategic plan.
