Fulton County approves $230,699.51 state grant for 911 systems, hires per-diem dispatcher
Summary
The county approved a State Interconnectivity Grant of $230,699.51 for multiple 911 system maintenance projects and voted to hire a per-diem 911 dispatcher pending clearances; salary was set by the Salary Board.
Fulton County commissioners on Dec. 30 approved a State Interconnectivity Grant totaling $230,699.51 to support maintenance and upgrades to the county's emergency communications systems.
EMA/911 Director Brian Barton reviewed the grant, which the meeting minutes list as funding for SouthCentral Mountain CAD Maintenance, SouthCentral Mountain CHE Maintenance, SouthCentral Mountain ESInet Maintenance, Fulton NG911 GIS Maintenance, SouthCentral Mountain Battery Upgrade, and Fulton ILEC Maintenance. Commissioner Steven L. Wible moved to approve and execute the grant; the motion was approved with "all in favor." The minutes do not list any roll-call tallies beyond that unanimous phrasing.
The commissioners also moved to hire Troy Wagaman as a per-diem 911 dispatcher, effective pending required clearances. The board held a brief Salary Board meeting at 9:48 a.m. to set the salary for the newly hired dispatcher; that action was recorded as approved "all in favor." HR Administrator Mary Huston was present for the pension discussion and personnel matters.
No further contract details or implementation timelines are specified in the minutes. The executive session called later in the morning was for personnel matters; the board exited the executive session at 10:29 a.m. and adjourned at 11:15 a.m.
