Sheriff Smith presented a request for new radios desperately needed for the county. The council would very much like for the Harrison County Community Foundation (HCCF) to help with some of the costs, but despite three years of planning and research no request has yet been submitted to HCCF.

It is unclear that HCCF, acting in their required timelines, will be able to participate in funding given the emergency timeline believed necessary by the Sheriff. At a price tag of $2,216,053.95, they hope to have the new radio system fully deployed in about six months.
