The centers, which represent more than half of the county’s population, will transition over the next year to the cloud-based digital system, dubbed “Next Generation 911,” to replace the current analog infrastructure. Some of the six other dispatch centers in the county may join the system at a later date.
The surcharge helps fund the nine dispatch centers in the county, including dispatch staff, training, equipment, office space and the increasing technology that will eventually allow callers to send 911 texts, photos, videos and live streams.
