Warren County dispatch has fully moved from the soon-to-be-replaced Warren County Courthouse, and into the Warren County Administration Building located at 301 N Buxton St. in Indianola.
E911 Program Director Doug McCasland tells KNIA News moving a department as important as dispatch is difficult, but Warren County officials worked to make it as easy as possible.
“You have to coordinate different radio towers, all the phone lines coming in and out, the different circuits to make everything work. There is even more different pieces with the state ICN network and the state wireless 911 system, there were multiple agencies that took multiple meetings to coordinate, but ultimately through cooperation with the different agencies we were able to make it work.”
McCasland also said that during the actual move, Warren County residents were still being provided complete service with cooperation from other agencies in the state.
