BURLINGTON, Vt. (WCAX) – A new report looks at Vermont’s dispatch centers and emergency response.
Now, the state wants to hear from you. On Thursday, the Vermont Public Safety Communications task force will host a meeting to discuss the future of emergency communication in the state.
According to the report, Vermont has 37 independently operated dispatch centers and answering points.
That’s significantly more than some larger states.
With technology evolving faster than smaller dispatch centers, some are at risk of being left behind, including the people they are in place to help.
Thursday night at 6, Vermonters can respond to the report’s suggestions for how emergency calls are handled. You can register for that meeting here.
