    http://oswegocountytoday.com/new-e-911-radio-system-releases-video/
    OSWEGO, NY – The Central New York Interoperable Communication Consortium has released a new video summarizing the latest E-911 radio system now being constructed by nine counties for improved emergency communication.
    The video production, sponsored by Motorola and produced by SUNY Oswego students, is available for viewing on YouTube and the Oswego County E-911 Web site.
    “Member counties have invested millions in the radio system which covered new radio communication towers as well as new handheld radios and mobiles for emergency responders such as police, firefighters and EMS,” said Mike Allen, Oswego County 911 program coordinator. “The CNYICC video is very well produced as it presents a great amount of detailed information about the creation of a regional communication system.”
    The new integrated communication system currently links Oswego, Madison, Cayuga, Cortland and Onondaga counties.
    CNYICC is an agreement between these counties to share in costs and develop an interoperable communication system for the safety of Central New York.
    The video is a Great Laker Communication Production by SUNY Oswego and is narrated by local TV and radio personality Rick Gary.
    The lead writer and assistant writers include SUNY Oswego students Dan Frohm, Joe Salvatore and Shaune Killough with support from Marybeth Longo, visiting professor and student coordinator.

    Looks nice. The key to success is to eliminate duplicated resources with untrained personnel handling calls.

    Why is this in the Law Enforcement section?
    First of all, I totally agree in required training for Officers. We recently implemented requirements for our officers, which followed the recommendations of OFPC (DHSES, whatever they are now) and/or NYSAFC (I forget who). We added some other stuff. In order to be flexible to the masses, we had to let former officers be allowed to hold positions again for another two years to give guys time to meet the new requirements, provided the past officer isn't moving up, in which case they must meet the new requirements.
    Second, and I swear by this - it doesn't matter what classes or training someone has. If the guy/gal hasn't been around long enough to earn their peers' respect on and off the fireground - they don't belong in the ranks. Experience, training, attendance above that of the minimum, common sense and a mindset of doing the greater good for their company/department are the attributes of a good officer.
    Third, you can have someone who either does or does not have a lot of training run your department into the ground. We have suffered quite a few poor Chiefs and poor Company Officers over the years, and I am sure we'll make those mistakes again. (Hopefully I am wrong) You can have a Chief who does nothing at all for two years, followed by one that does a ton and changes things for the good for two, then have another flapjack come in and set you all back in time again for two years. Realistically, term limits should be looked at and if the majority is content with their leadership - why change it because it is someone else's turn? If a guy is in say, 5 years, and the majority has had their fill of him, VOTE HIM OUT. It isn't rocket science to me, but I am part of the minority.
    Westchester-area Career Officers generally get FDNY's FLIP school, right? Man I would give my left nut for that kind of program. The officer courses offered to the rest of us don't tell you how to handle your calls - they just tell you how to avoid getting sued and show you ways to earn your members' respect (which is fine, but where the f*** is the REAL TRAINNG?!?!)
    I think there are plenty of people in this county - paid and volunteer - that could put together an amazing officer program for both sides of the fence which would cover your soup to nuts. Then, and only then, could any of us really feel "trained & prepared."

    It looks like the only a****** here is possibly yourself. I agree with the majority of the posts here and it is a proven fact that the vast majority of the Volunteer Fire Service elections are pretty much popularity contests and thats garbage. A member can have every class and certification in the book but the bottom line is some people have no business being an officer or chief period. It shouldnt even be a question agencies should and obviously need to have requirments for positions and need to stick to them and just dont "bend them" or make exceptions. Turn-over in the ranks in agencies because "thats just how it is" is Bull****, If they work and are willing to stay put and continue to have the drive to do the job the right way...leave them and groom others to do the right thing, not blow it on a "Filler". The respect of your members toward a potential canidate for the drive of doing whats right for the common good of your district/department/company, citizens, and safety of the membership is paramount. I'd go out on a limb and have to say that maybe it just wasnt your turn and it might be time to start making more training videos.

    Complete silence is not the answer. If there is an incident the media is going to want to talk to someone. If no one on the fire side is going to talk to the media than they are going to talk to some PD desk Sgt. who wasn't even at the scene, or even worse some neighbor standing in the street who knows nothing of the incident but wants to see his name or photo in the paper. Each department should have a PIO (Public Information Officer) an ex-chief would make a great PIO. Listen its not just the Journal News and News 12, there is Patch, The Daily Voice, Hudson Valley Reporter and several other on-line news outlets trying to be the first to get their story out there.
