More Details on Software Grant that clearly show the city accepted the Dunleavy effort as a gift very early on in the grant.

In order for Lt. Dunleavy to then sell the software to Purvis Systems and then have Purvis charge maintenance back to the city, an Invention Report would have been required.

Letter from Scott Avedisian, Mayor of Warwick to William D. Ankner, Director RIDOT, dated March 1, 2001

(in part)

"In recent days this administration and the members of the Warwick City Council has (sic) accepted a donation of a software package that will assist in this matter (the Dunleavy package). Therefore I am requesting a waiver of the grant award that will allow us to utilize the $90,000 to purchase necessary hardware."

"By moving forward and granting this waiver, you will be giving us the ability to move forward even quicker and more efficiently than expected. In addition, it will allow the software to be shared with other communities earlier than anticipated."

FAX from Warwick Fire Dept dated August 16, 2001:

"The software system that the City of Warwick is testing and deploying, in coordination with the Department of Health, other State Agencies, and outside companies, will be available to all other communities throughout the state at the successful completion of this deployment.."
