Nowata County Commission on 911 Committee

 

Nowata County Commissioners have had a long discussion about E911. Jerome Gnatek with the 911 committee brought a proposal to the board to define the committee as a trust authority, and commissioners are reviewing the lengthy proposal.

 

As a trust authority, the 911 committee would be authorized to conduct business, and could specifically apply for grants. Gnatek also explained it would be difficult for Nowata County to fund its own stand-alone dispatch center.
 

Working with a neighboring county like Rogers, Craig or Washington remains a strong possibility. The county would have a limited budget for this operation but REAP grant funds could be available.
