Ottawa Franklin County discuss 911 interlocal agreement

Officials from Ottawa and Franklin County met to discuss drawing an interlocal agreement for the operation of the 911 emergency dispatch service. County chair Charles Mavity said the 911 board was meant to be independent, with two city appointees, two county appointees, and one member chosen by the others. Ottawa city manager Dave Warren urged the agreement to outline the board’s powers and authority and noted that current arrangements show the city handling bookkeeping and payroll and providing county insurance benefits, hindering true independence. The service is funded jointly by the city and county and would remain so under a revised interlocal.
