Narrative

Please structure your proposal to provide the following information in the order indicated. Provide the narrative in
paragraph form in the text field provided. Please be thorough but strive for brevity.

1. Briefly describe your organization’s history, mission and goals.

The City of Chandler, incorporated on February 17, 1920, is located in the southeastern portion of
Maricopa County, and encompasses approximately 65 square miles. Chandler has been an innovative
community shaped by entrepreneurs and hometown traditions since being founded by Dr. AJ. Chandler
as one of Arizona's first master-planned communities in 1912. A legacy of Chandler families and business
enterprises has established a foundation for our community to build upon. Their commitment to the
pursuit of opportunity and advancement of the community combined with decades of thoughtful,
consistent planning and investments have transformed Chandler into the Community of Innovation we

know today.

Chandler is the fourth largest city in Arizona and is one of several major cities comprising the greater
Phoenix metropolitan area, which is the economic, political, and population center of the State of
Arizona. Chandler’s population has experienced remarkable growth over the past 25 years. The city's
manufacturing sector and information technology industry has been a major driver of economic growth
and attraction to Chandler. The city has stabilized its financial position by utilizing a mix of diversified
revenue sources. Managing costs of services during a time of inflation and higher cost of personnel in the
market is critical. Grants provide the city the opportunity to increase our reach and expand our services

to our community.

The City of Chandler’s continued goal is to provide the highest quality services to the community in the
most cost-effective manner. These services include Public Safety: Police and Fire; Community Services:
Park and Recreation and Libraries; Cultural Development: Center for the Arts and Museum; Public Works:
Streets and Traffic; Utilities: Water, Wastewater, Reclaimed Water and Solid Waste; Neighborhood
Resources; Development Services; Airport; Tax and Licensing and numerous internal services.

Our Mission is that we are committed to serve Chandler's citizens through teamwork, understanding and
dedication in a professional and responsive manner. Our Vision, to make Chandler a world-class city by
delivering outstanding public services, creating a unique community. Chandler's quality of life is
consistently recognized nationally among the safest and most prosperous communities.

The Chandler Police Department, also established in 1912, is a highly successful, community service-
oriented, proactive agency, represented by 520 dedicated sworn and civilian staff. The mission of the
organization is to provide a safe community where people can live, work, and thrive. We are committed
to being a leader in law enforcement and will pursue and engage the best trained, equipped, and

committed professionals who demonstrate the highest performance standards and best policing
practices in partnership with the community.

2. To determine eligibility for this grant, if the applying organization is non-municipal or non-profit, please describe
your relationship with the supporting municipality, how this project will benefit the municipality, and the
municipality’s role in this project, if applicable. If the applying organization is a municipality or a municipal sub-

division please enter the text “Not applicable” and go to item 3.

Not applicable

3. Describe the proposed project, objectives, and your plan to implement.

The FirstNet Compact Rapid Deployable (CRD) provides cell and internet connectivity for public safety use
during large community events, as a backup for the 9-1-1 emergency communications center during facility
or carrier outages, and for law enforcement operations use in remote areas. The CRD is portable and can be
set up in under 15 minutes. It provides cell coverage for up to 2 miles or 600 devices, and WiFi coverage up

to 500 feet.

4. Describe how the proposed project satisfies one or more of the priority funding areas identified by the Gila River

Indian Community.

Chandler public safety personnel will be able to leverage this connectivity for communication to other public
safety personnel, and remain operational during times there are not currently other alternatives. CRD will

provide cell and internet connectivity for public safety on a private server.

5. Identify the needs/problems to be addressed, target population and number of people to be served by the

project.

Connectivity can be lost in various ways — carrier outages, building power outages, fiber cuts, cyberattacks,
etc — or may not exist in remote areas. Connectivity can also be slow for public safety during large
community events, planned or unplanned. Chandler public safety personnel will be able to leverage this
connectivity for communication to other public safety personnel, and remain operational during times there

are not currently other alternatives. The Chandler community is served when public safety maintains

continuity in the 9-1-1 emergency communications center and/or when public safety personnel are able to

maintain operational continuity in the field.

Define the project as a new or continuing program. Has GRIC previously funded this project?

The FirstNet CRD is a new program. It has not previously been funded by GRIC.

Provide a brief timeline including start and finish dates. Indicate if the timeline is flexible.

The timeline is flexible as this is a backup to existing primary communications resources. The project timeline
would include collaborating with FirstNet to determine business needs and specifications. FirstNet would

then order the CRD for delivery.

Identify other organizations, partners or funders participating in the project and their roles.

The First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet) is the federal partner that provides the CRD. The mission
of FirstNet is to support first responders by providing a mission critical communications network and

supporting equipment.

Would you be able to implement the proposed plan if your organization received partial funding for this project?

There is no funding currently available for this device or program.

Describe your plan for project financial sustainability beyond the grant period. If this is a program/project

previously funded by the Gila River Indian Community describe efforts made towards the previously described

sustainability plan.

The device cost is a one-time purchase. Ongoing costs, such as the router, satellite data plan, and annual
service & support plan may be supplemented as needed. If there are an supplemental costs required the

department will incur those costs to support the program.

Describe your plan to document progress and results.

Documentation will include testing and usage during operations, events, outages, and any other use case as

it arises.
