Re: Modification of JCECA IGA to Permit JCECA to Increase the Emergency
Telephone Charge
To whom it may concern:
Enclosed is a proposed modification to the founding intergovernmental agreement (the "IOA'')
of the Jefferson Collllty Emergency Communications Authority ("JCECA"). The modification
will enable JCECA to raise the emergency telephone charge (the "ETC")1 from $0.70 to $1.20.
The increased revenue will allow JCECA to provide additional funding for 911 and emergency
communications in Jefferson and Broomfield counties. Enclosed is a resolution adopted by
JCECA 's board of directors supporting the modification.
JCECA primarily uses the ETC funds to support 10 public safety answering points {each, a
"PSAP") in Jefferson and Broomfield Counties in accordance with C.R.S. § 29-11-104(2). Eight
of those PSAPs are consolidating into one regional PSAP to be operated by the newly created
Jefferson County Communications Center Authority ("JefiCom"). Jefftom and its member
agencies have requested that JCECA fund JeffCom's capital startup costs. JeffCom's PSAP is
expected to be operational in approximately one year. Once operational, JCECA will annually
contribute to JeffCom's expenses. Je:ffCom anticipates that its PSAP will result in better 911
service levels and, over time, in reduced costs. JCECA will also continue to support the two
PSAPs which are not consolidating into JeffCom.
The ETC is currently set at $0.70 per wireline, wireless, and VoIP telephone line.2 JCECA
proposes to increase the ETC to $1.20 per line. This increase will allow JCECA to increase its
funding for 911 arid emergency communications in Jefferson and Broomfield counties.
JCECA's IOA limits JCECA's ability to increase the ETC above $0.70. The proposed
modification allows JCECA to increase the ETC in accordance with the statute. The statute at
C.R.S. § 29-1 l-102(2)(b) requires the approval of the Colorado Public Utilities Commission (the
1 The ETC is defined at C.R.S. § 29·11-101(1.7).
2 Prepaid wireless phone pay a separate charge collected by the retailer and remitted to the Colorado Department of
Revenue. SeeC.R.S. § 29-11-102.S.

"PUC'') to increase the ETC above $0.70. In other words, to increase the ETC, JCECA needs
(1) to am.end its IGA to give JCECA the authority to raise the ETC above $0.70 and (2) the
approval of the PUC. Once the proposed IGA modification is approved, JCECA will submit an
application to the PUC to seek approval of an ETC of$1.20.
Please consider the enclosed IGA modification. Please return you executed copy of the signature
page to me. When I have compiled all the signature pages, I will distribute the fully executed
modification to all the parties.
