CCCDA believes the method of telephone surcharge is a fair, equitable, and stable funding solution for 9-1-1. This fee for service is based upon access to the 9-1-1 network. If you have a device that can access the network by dialing 9-1-1, you have access to immediate emergency & public safety services. In addition, 9-1-1 surcharge monies are collected by telephone service providers and remitted to CCCDA on a quarterly basis therefore, there are no collection/remittance fees incurred by CCCDA.

NO -The proposal in 2004 was a millage request to fund a $15 million capital (consolidation) project and a new consolidated dispatch center’s yearly operational budget of $4.8 million. Local government officials came up with an alternative funding mechanism to consolidate the dispatch centers. The alternative provided funding for the consolidated dispatch center for 2009 thru 2013. The three dispatch centers were consolidated in March 2010 for less than $1.4 million; approximately 90% less than the 2004 proposal. The average operational budget for the center ranges from $3.3 to $3.7 million; 25% less than the 2004 proposal.

In 2011, CCCDA: N Received 112,086 9-1-1 Calls N Received 260,007 Non-Emergency Calls N Approx. 80% are from wireless phones

On April 10th, the CCCDA Governing Board of Directors passed a resolution asking local units of government to declare their intent of any general fund savings realized as a result of an affirmative vote by you for the 9-1-1 surcharge proposal.

“My commitment to you, as sheriff, will be the continued improvement of jail operations, advocating for more deputies on road patrol, and working to reduce emergency response time.
