Morrow County officials seek follow-up on 911 system testing after missed coordination
Summary
County staff reported incomplete coordination for a promised 911 system test; a county official said a multi-agency meeting had been held and 'Keith' volunteered to run the test, but staff must follow up to schedule it.
County officials on Aug. 14 said they are pursuing a test of the county 911 system after staff did not receive the expected follow-up from a contractor or vendor.
Speaker 1 told the commissioners the county has been "trying to get a test on the 9 1 1 system to verify that when the first call in that we're getting the right unit and lock number," and that they had not received cooperation from "Mister Ecker." Speaker 4 responded that a prior multi-agency meeting—including the sheriff's office and local 911 staff—had taken place and that "Keith did say that he was willing to do that test," urging staff to follow up directly with Keith to schedule it.
No formal action was recorded; commissioners asked staff to reach out to the named contact and confirm the test schedule. The exchange was recorded during the audience/department updates portion of the meeting and did not include a vote.
