agreement, which agreement shall be applicable on a daily basis
and which shall provide that if an emergency services vehicle is
dispatched in response to a request through the Winnebago County
system , such vehicle shall render its services to the persons
needing the aid.
THEREFORE , in consideration of the mutual promises ,
agreements, and conditions contained herein, it is hereby
jointly agreed between Winnebago County and the City of Oshkosh,
hereinafter referred to as "municipality" , as follows:
1. That the agreement shall be effective immediately upon its
execution as to the Basic 911 System presently in operation in
Winnebago County and shall continue to be applicable on a daily basis
until the Sophisticated 911 System becomes operational in Winnebago
County, the anticipated date of which is September 1, 1990; that the
agreement shall continue to be applicable on a daily basis when the
Sophisticated 911 System becomes operational; that this agreement
shall renew automatically at each succeeding anniversary date, which
for purposes of this agreement shall be August 31st of each year,
unless either party hereto in writing notifies the other party, not
less than thirty (30) days prior to any succeeding anniversary date,
