BDA/Radio Communications Mandate on Condominiums
Summary
Commissioner Glassman pressed again — for over a year — on condo associations facing $200,000-$300,000 bills for in-building emergency radio boosters, with confusing vendor advice and no financial relief. Staff says the new P-25 radio system deal comes before the commission soon and could reduce the need, but won't know each building's outcome until installed.
