Linn County Board proclaims Public Safety Telecommunicators Week and National County Government Month
Summary
The Linn County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved proclamations recognizing April 13–19, 2025, as National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week and proclaimed April 2025 as National County Government Month, citing the role of telecommunicators and county services.
An unidentified board member moved and the Linn County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a proclamation recognizing April 13–19, 2025, as National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week.
The motion cited the role of public-safety telecommunicators in answering emergency requests and dispatching law enforcement, fire and emergency medical services, and referenced the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials (APCO) and its observance of the week.
The board also moved to proclaim April 2025 as National County Government Month for Linn County, a recognition urged by the National Association of Counties to highlight county responsibilities and services. The proclamation text called attention to counties’ role in delivering public services and encouraged officials, employees and residents to engage with county government.
Both motions were seconded and approved with unanimous 'aye' votes. No discussion or public comment was recorded on the proclamations.
The board's actions were procedural proclamations and do not create binding policy; they were entered into the record for April 2025.
