10. ORDINANCE SECOND READING - ORDINANCE NO. 1337: IN-BUILDING
PUBLIC SAFETY RADIO SYSTEM COVERAGE (800 MHz
COMMUNICATION SYSTEM)
Existing and new development of large commercial, industrial, and residential
buildings in the City of Tustin has significantly reduced the capability of the
Tustin Police Department and the Orange County Fire Authority to
communicate with their field personnel on the radio system since the County
of Orange converted its public safety radio systems to the 800 MHz
Countywide Coordinated Communications System. This condition is
exacerbated in subterranean and dense structures. The proposed new
sections for the City of Tustin City Code will require builders, owners, and
developers of non-exempted new and planned construction of dense
buildings and subterranean structures to field radio test and to install in-
building coverage systems in areas of those buildings that impede effective
public safety radio communications.
Recommendation: Have second reading by title only and adoption of
Ordinance No. 1337 (roll call vote).
