After a brief delay, the county board is set to discuss the latest in plans to update the radios in the sheriff’s department to match the rest of the state.

The county board is expected to discuss an agreement with the state of Minnesota and the Southeast Minnesota Regional Radio Board for the 800-MHz radio system during its 9:30 a.m. regular county board meeting Tuesday.

Sheriff Terese Amazi was expected to discuss the plan with the board last week, but the talks were delayed so state official Andy Terry could attend this Tuesday’s meeting.

The meeting starts at 8:30 a.m. with a department report from County Recorder Jill Cordes.

The county previously committed to Mower joining the Allied Radio Matrix for Emergency Response.

Mower County was the last holdout, as all the other counties in southeast Minnesota have already converted to 800 MHz. Mower is still on a FM radio system.

Through grants, the county has purchased about 120 radio units for law enforcement, fire, EMT officials, and rural EMT and fire officials. The newest grant will replace the main radios in dispatch.
