You are going to need to look hard for the equipment as it will probably need to be purchased new due to the narrow banding rules. They will either need a repeater so that all portables can hear each other when they are inside buildings or they can try simplex between the base station and portables. The repeater will probably only need to be 5 watts to cover the area.

Site is pancake flat, no hills. Anyone have a finance spreadsheet with the costs associated with a single-site UHF system build out? Even though much of the equipment will be used, the board likely will want to see the what "new" would cost. Side note: they have an existing 60 foot tall building to house the repeater, so the "tower" itself is covered.
