The Seneca City Council and the Nemaha County Commission will hold a special joint meeting Monday evening to try to resolve a dispute over how much the city should pay for dispatch services provided to it’s police department.
The meeting will take place at 8 p.m. at the Seneca City Hall.
The city council rejected the county’s latest offer at their April 18th meeting of $45,864 annually. Instead, the council voted to offer to pay nothing for dispatching services.
The city paid $70,451 to the county last year for providing dispatching services.
The issue of how much the city should pay arose at the first of the year when the county took the formerly city-operated ambulance service, transferring responsibility for emergency medical dispatching to the county.
