Director: Todd Baldwin |
Lincoln County Communications was established in 1992. This was done to provide 911 services to the people of Lincoln County. In 1995, with the closing of Parker State Radio, Turner County also needed these services and contracted with Lincoln County for them. Lincoln County communications has a fully enhanced 911 system. This allows the caller's name and address to be displayed when the call is placed. Communications is responsible for fire, ambulance and law enforcement dispatching. Communications also provides these services to several other peripheral agencies. Communications handles emergency dispatching 24 hour a day. Along with the emergency dispatch, the Communications center handles several administrative phone lines, maintains the warrant files, does all NCIC entries and handles routine police traffic for the two counties. Lincoln County Communications has a director, six full time dispatchers and three part-time dispatchers.
