New CAD:
-The CAD has been fully configured and is ready for system freeze. Configuration work continues on open items for Mobile for Public Safety.
-The County has chosen to utilize a commercial data service for the mobile data network. This change in direction has caused a delay in the cutover for the CAD system.

Agencies will be responsible for commercial data service on all Company-owned MDCs.
-The schedule for CAD and Mobile Data is being developed.
