CHICOPEE, MA (WGGB/WSHM) — Starting Tuesday, a new emergency dispatch center will be serving the town of Longmeadow and city of Chicopee.
It’s called the WESTCOMM regional emergency communication center.
Starting December 10, a new dispatch center in Chicopee will be receiving all 911 calls made in the city, plus the town of Longmeadow.
“It’s a cost effective way to get the information out to the police and fire departments from doing it in one area,” said Erin Hastings, executive director of WESTCOMM RECC.
Hastings told Western Mass News they are able to receive grants from the state 911 department.
