The City of Dunwoody Considering Leaving DeKalb's E-911

In a memorandum from Dunwoody's city manager to the city's mayor and city council, it appears the city of Dunwoody is posed to leave DeKalb's E-911 system. This will be discussed Monday night, April 12, 2010.

Even as the county collects all 911 charges from both wired and wireless phone lines in the City of Dunwoody, the county refuses to dedicate a radio channel for the Dunwoody Police. Because Dunwoody Police doesn't have a dedicated channel, their calls, especially emergency calls are delayed.

Who can blame them? Especially after the fiasco with fire dispatched that caused the death of a Dunwoody resident. Not to mention the antiquated hardware and software of DeKalb's E-911 system.

How long has it been since we supposedly went digital, and emergency calls are still be dispatched to wrong precincts and absolutely nothing is being done to correct it?

The City of Dunwoody would be wise to seek their own E-911 system or share one with another city.

The commissioners of DeKalb County would be wise to ask for an outside investigation into our E-911 system to expose the waste, maybe theft and fraud of taxpayer money, before there is another preventable death.

Terminated Fireman In Fatal Dunwoody House Fire Gets Job Back

Just as Captain Motes said all along, not enough information was dispatched.

How long before the communications division is investigated and personnel are fired over the handling of this call? It ain't gonna happen.

If Vernon was still in office, this would be a shoe in for the owners of the club. Just slide Mr. C.E.O. a few bills to his bag man and they would be in like flint.

Let's see how the current administration deals with "quality of life" issues.

Just to let you know, I'm praying for you all. You put your lives on the line for us every time you go out on the streets - you are our heroes. Hopefully, Bolton will be gone soon after Burrell Ellis takes office. You deserve a boss that respects you, that takes care of you and honors you.

Good luck!!!
