Borough eyes emergency dispatch upgrade

Emergency dispatch operations in the Mat Su could be put out to bid, if a Requests For Proposals outlined at  Tuesday night’s Matanuska Susitna Borough Assembly meeting is successful.
The Borough’s 911 system is split into two call centers, and that has occasionally caused confusion when emergency calls come in. Matanuska Sustina Borough manager John Moosey says a study done three years ago pointed out deficiencies in the system, but was not successful in bringing about changes.
