9-1-1
When using the 9-1-1 system you must remember
certain guidelines. When using an interoffice phone
you must dial 9-9 first prior to making an emergency
call. If you use a regular phone or a public phone you
may dial 9-1-1 directly. If you choose to call the emergency
system directly, please call the Public Safety dispatcher
to inform of the call so that officers can be alerted
and assist the emergency unit to arrive quickly at the
location needed.
