9-1-1 Director Eric Raymond explained to the committee the ETSB met Wednesday and it still doesn’t have a budget to submit. There’s still questions on how much funding will come from each of the entities for joint dispatch. It’s requesting $167,500 be provided from the county, city of Watseka and ETSB. He said there’s concern with setting a number because the telecommunicators’ contracts will go into negotiations this year “and that number could go anywhere”.
