Bee County commissioners voted to approve an interlocal agreement with the Coastal Bend Council of Governments for 9-1-1 public-safety answering point services during the July 28 special meeting.
The court’s agenda item explained the agreement is an administrative housekeeping measure establishing the Coastal Bend Council of Governments as the county’s public-safety answering-point service provider under the terms set out in the interlocal arrangement. A county representative could not attend the meeting because of a vehicle problem; the court proceeded and approved the item by unanimous voice vote.
The nut graf: the interlocal agreement formalizes service delivery and administrative responsibilities for 9-1-1 call-taking and dispatch coordination between the county and a regional provider.
Ending: The court approved the interlocal agreement without exception and the county clerk will process the final contract paperwork.
