Regional dispatch center moving forward in Summit County.
"This system is a critical system to public safety,” said Summit County Executive Ilene Shapiro. “We have come a long way over the last few years, and we really believe this will bring a lot of value and benefit to our communities and our residents and turn.”
“What really brought all this together was all of these communities needed to upgrade their dispatching software,” said Summit County Chief of Staff Brian Nelson. “The idea of doing that together and leveraging those economies of scale was appealing, I think, to all of us.” “We had a councilman who passed away unexpectedly. One of their council members was I was going to be out on a limb by a medical leave for a little bit of time,” Nelson said. “So that really pushed this into this January timeframe.”
“Every dispatcher who currently works for one of our communities that's joining this will be offered a position as part of this,” Nelson said.
