SPOKANE, Wash. — Spokane is moving forward with plans to create its own Emergency Communications Center to serve as the city’s primary 911 dispatch hub.
According to the City of Spokane’s draft agenda, the City Council is considering an ordinance that would establish the department, which would handle all emergency calls initiated within city limits. The measure would also update city code, replacing references to the former Combined Communications Center and creating a dedicated Emergency Communications Center Fund to manage revenues and spending.
