Readfield authorizes PSAP dispatch agreement with Androscoggin County Sheriff's Office for 2027
Summary
The Select Board approved a PSAP dispatch services contract with the Androscoggin County Sheriff's Office for 01/01/2027–12/31/2027; the contract requires payment beginning 09/01/2027 per its terms.
Town Manager Eric presented a proposed PSAP dispatch agreement with the Androscoggin County Sheriff's Office for calendar year 2027 and recommended approval. He said the county has provided ample notice and that rates have been "fairly reasonable," adding that the town will sign the contract for 01/01/2027–12/31/2027 and that the payment schedule shows payment due on 09/01/2027.
A board member moved to approve the contract and authorize the town manager to sign; the motion passed unanimously. Members framed the contract as a stabilizing measure amid broader uncertainty about local emergency services and ambulance partnerships.
