From excerpts of the Telegraph.com:
Statewide integration of Illinois' 911 emergency services has been championed by Governor Bruce Rauner's administration as a positive step forward. However, officials in Madison County remain skeptical about the benefits. Many local fire and police chiefs argue that consolidating individual emergency response systems into a single statewide network—reducing the county's public safety answering points (PSAPs) from 16 to 8—won't enhance resident experiences. Instead, they fear it could harm public safety and strain municipal budgets.
Illinois Public Act 099-0006 came into effect January 1, 2016, establishing the Office of the Statewide 9-1-1 Administrator to oversee the creation and management of a uniform statewide 911 system for areas outside of Chicago. Counties with populations over 250,000 were instructed to halve their PSAP count. A spokesperson for Governor Rauner claimed the move would make state operations more efficient and save taxpayer money while boosting public safety.
Madison County disagrees. Since 1989, residents have supported a 67-cent surcharge on phone lines to finance the county's 911 infrastructure. Recently, Madison County invested in a Next Generation 911 system, which allows seamless transmission of digital data like voice, images, and texts to first responders. Terence McFarland, the county's 911 coordinator, described it as cutting-edge technology.
East Alton Mayor Joe Silkwood noted, "Our current setup works well. Calls reach the right responders quickly and effectively." Financial concerns also loom large. Across the county's 16 PSAPs, approximately 225 dispatchers are employed, housed within police departments. Consolidation might mean losing some positions.
Wood River Police Chief Otis Steward pointed out that dispatchers handle much more than just relaying calls. "They monitor jails, input warrants, and perform numerous other tasks. Dispatching is only a small part of their role," he stated. Currently, each department funds its own dispatchers, while the 911 surcharge covers equipment like CAD and GIS systems.
If other departments follow suit and retain their dispatchers, costs could rise instead of falling. It remains unclear who would shoulder these extra expenses. By last week's deadline, counties had to submit consolidation plans or seek waivers. Madison County's Emergency Telephone System Board (ETSB) requested a one-year extension beyond the July 1, 2017 deadline. The decision rests with the Statewide 9-1-1 Administrator.
In the interim, ETSB plans to commission a study to explore the viability of consolidation alternatives. The study, mandated under the waiver, will analyze collective bargaining agreements, assess potential cost impacts, and evaluate improvements to dispatch centers. This ongoing debate highlights the complexities involved in modernizing emergency services while balancing efficiency and service quality.
