The Montrose County Sheriff’s Office will keep providing emergency dispatch services for several agencies after they sued for the continuation of the service this month.
The Grand Junction Sentinel reported that several fire and police agencies joined forces this year to form the Western Colorado Regional Dispatch Center. They sued the sheriff’s office in early December to force the sheriff to provide emergency 911 dispatch service.
Under a recent agreement, Montrose County officials will provide room for non-emergency dispatch service until the Western Colorado Regional Dispatch Center is up and operational. Sheriff Rick Dunlap says the center is expected to be complete by March.
