4. CHAIRMAN'S REMARKS - CHAIR SCHWARZE
Chairman Schwarze said happy new year and he hoped for a wonderful 2022. He mentioned there would not be an executive session because Members were not available at this meeting and asked they be prepared to be present to hold an executive session in February.
Chairman Schwarze recognized DU-COMM Telecommunicator Chali Dina, who was present at the meeting, and who on October 23, 2021 handled a call of a 58-year-old female, not conscience. TC Dina determined through the use of Emergency Medical Dispatch (EMD) protocols the medical emergency and successfully provided CPR instructions which contributed to the survival of the patient. TC Dina said it was her first full arrest and was pleased with the positive outcome and the call she had received the next day from the man who was giving chest compressions. She thanked the Board for their recognition. It was later noted in the meeting that TC Dina is the daughter-in-law of PAC Vice Chair Andy Dina.
The Chairman then congratulated ACDC Telecommunicator Robert Nudd who had received a call from a female in the Oak Brook area that found her husband hanging. TC Nudd quickly initiated the event and initiated an EMS response. After the caller promptly cut her husband down and loosened the noose, utilizing EMD protocols, TC Nudd instructed the caller to perform CPR and guided the caller through both rescue breaths and compressions. TC Nudd provided reassurance and counted with the caller to keep her on the correct pace. At the end of the call, the caller reported the patient's color was starting to come back to normal and then care was handed off to the first responders.
Lastly, Chairman Schwarze congratulated ACDC Professional Standards Coordinator Sherianne Hermes on her article: Low Frequency, High-Impact Training: Crucial and Uncomplicated that was published in the November/December 2021, Vol.87/No.6 issue of Public Safety Communications.

Ms. Zerwin said that in asset management, this expands the software capacity to allow for the current radios and the new radios. From an outside audit perspective, assets must be tracked until they are released as surplus. Once the new radios have been deployed and the current radios declared surplus and accounted for in an annual audit, the software capacity will be reduced and, hopefully the cost.

8. DUPAGE ETSB 9-1-1 SYSTEM DESIGN
Ms. Zerwin had nothing beyond what was reported in the monthly report.
9. DEDIRS PORTABLE AND MOBILE RADIO REPLACEMENT PAC Vice Chair Dina updated the Board and said it was pretty exciting to go over to the ETSB offices and see the mountains of radio boxes that were coming in. The police portables were in, the mobiles were coming in, and all the accessories. The fire radios were going through NFPA1802 testing process and were not yet received which worked in their favor as the PAC is working through updating the templates.
He referred to the policies Ms. Zerwin had mentioned, and per OMA regulations, they developed an Ad Hoc PAC committee which meets after the PAC to update the DEDIRS policies along with delivery of the new radios. He anticipated at the February meeting they would have many of the policies finalized.
In reference to Vice Chair Franz's comment, PAC Vice Chair Dina said when resolutions come through the PAC the items are discussed and voted on for recommendation to the ETS Board for approval.
