ES <br />MERGENCY ERVICES <br />11.B.1. Request from Sebastian Police Department for a Public Safety <br />Answering Point (PSAP) <br /> <br />Sebastian Police Chief Jim Davis <br /> commented that the backup material for this item contained <br />very negative comments that do not reflect the facts, as they exist. He provided a history of the dispatch <br />system in Sebastian and expressed their need for a PSAP, which is demonstrated by an increasing number <br />of transferred calls from the Sheriff’s Office. The addition of a PSAP would improve the response time <br />for Sebastian residents. Sebastian’s 911 system “is broken” and he urged the Board to consider taking <br />steps to correct the problem. <br />June 20, 2006 <br />19 <br /> <br />
