Good Review for Spenser Dispatch Services

WEKU
Published August 31, 2011 at 1:46 PM EDT

More than a year has passed since Spencer County's 911 emergency dispatching service was transferred from a county-operated office above the sheriff’s department to the Kentucky State Police Post in Frankfort. Although some emergency service directors have identified minor problems with the service, the general consensus among local agencies is that the transition was mostly positive. And, according to KSP, the move saved Spencer County more than $93,000 in the first year.
