Project Title: MOBILE COMMAND CENTER
SwbQrant Recipient: City of Winter Springs
Implementing Agency: Winter Springs Police Department
Project Start Date: 7/1/2015 End Date: 12/3112015
Problem Identification
Exposure to high stress incidents can bn very challenging, Management of tactical units,
emergency personnel, incoming resources, etc. can tax even the most experienced Incident
Commander. Every major inoidenthaaeimi|ahtiee'oneofvvhiohisthaneconedvofbeing
controlled from a command post using an Incident Command System (ICS). When properly
equipped, a command post acts as a force multiplier for the members trying to control the chaos.
Having the ability to provide command and control from a properly equipped and protected vehicle
can actually make managing an incident much easier.
Currently the Winter Springs Police Department has nu dedicated command post that can provide
the resources and equipment needed to handle calls for service of this nature that can occur in a
city like ours. Even though we are a bedroom community, just in the last five years we have been
the lead story on the national news twice where a command post was necessary. We had to rely
on another agency to respond. The delay caused some issues that could have been alleviated if
we had m command post
Project
We are currently researching to purchase a dedicated command post trailer. We envision a
mobile command vehicle tobe set upaoa dual purpose command post for both our Crisis
Negotiations Unit and as an operational command post to support unusual occurrences.
The trailer the City of Winter Springs wishes to utilize isonenclosed 2018Cargornate32foot
triple axel vehicle trailer. The trailer has two side entry doors; roof mounted air conditioning and
heat, and interior as well as exterior lighting.
To complete this task we would section off oportion of the trailer with oninterior wall and pocket
door that would house hanging white boards, multiple work stations, and communications
equipment. The other portion of the command post would house several more work stations, e
conference room to conduct tactical briefing etc., white boards, communications equipment (
monitors, lap top computers, radios, phones, cameras) an organizational filing system, and any
other expandable equipment that meet our needs.
Our agency request tn use grant funds in order to facilitate this project. The City of Winter Springs
has no money allocated mbudgeted for this type equipment. Without this award the police
department would not be able to continue pursuing this command center. Therefore wo request m
$5U.000 grant bo awarded to accomplish this purchase. VV* understand that any monies over the
8G0,000 will be the responsibility of the City of Winter Springs. VVo will ask for local donations and
or request additional funds from the City Commission to cover the difference, The completed
project to include the work and the trailer io expected tocost $62.500.00.
