Summary
The Fulton County commissioners approved a State Interconnectivity Grant of $230,699.51 for multiple 911 system maintenance projects and approved hiring a per‑diem 911 dispatcher pending clearances; a Salary Board met to set the new hire’s pay.
FULTON COUNTY — Fulton County commissioners on Dec. 30, 2025 approved a State Interconnectivity Grant totaling $230,699.51 to support multiple 911 system maintenance and upgrade projects and approved hiring a per‑diem 911 dispatcher.
EMA/911 Director Brian Barton reviewed the grant scope and requested board approval. The grant amount — $230,699.51 — was described as funding for SouthCentral Mountain CAD maintenance, SouthCentral Mountain CHE maintenance, SouthCentral Mountain ESInet maintenance, Fulton NG911 GIS maintenance, a SouthCentral Mountain battery upgrade, and Fulton ILEC maintenance. Commissioner Steven L. Wible moved to approve and execute the grant; the motion passed unanimously.
The board also approved hiring Troy Wagaman as a per‑diem 911 dispatcher, contingent on required clearances. A brief Salary Board meeting convened at 9:48 a.m. to set the salary for the new per‑diem position; the transcript records the meeting and that a salary was set but does not specify the dollar amount.
Commissioners recorded the approvals as 'All in favor.' The transcript does not include detailed implementation timelines for individual projects funded by the grant or the salary amount set by the Salary Board; those items will be processed administratively by EMA/911 staff.
