Exactly where I was going with it. Never was I trying to merge the two together but to give a big picture of how the state operates in terms of emergency communications. I agree with Part 90 and the state has a plethora of VTAC/UTAC/8TAC options here and whenever we have a drill it's usually over a repeater set up on one of those pairs. Only reason why I know is one of the UHF repeaters is on my tower whenever it is brought over. Otherwise it's just a coax with their name on it in the repeater room.
The Palmetto 800 system was designed with interoperability in mind where every county is to have a conventional wideband 8TAC repeater set up which is monitored by dispatch in that county as well. That as I said is one of many options open to a public safety group.
I'll try to dig up the appropriate files or URLs for all this info so the OP can get a better idea and hopefully have a better route to go.
Part 90 IB seems to be unnecessary in his situation since his organization qualifies for at least one of these options.
