(KLZA)-- Richardson County Commissioners are planning to prepare a written proposal for locating the 911 Public Service Answering Point from the Falls City Police Department to the Richardson County Law Enforcement Center. The proposal will be forwarded to the City Council for consideration once it is finalized.
Sheriff Rick Hardesty and Commissioner John Caverzagie met with the Falls City Council to discuss the possibility in January.
If the proposal were to be approved, all of the dispatching for the Sheriff's Department, Police Department and other entities including fire departments and ambulance service would be provided by the Sheriff's Department.
Currently the Police Department is the 911 Public Service Answering Point.
