What’s in it

Current law requires the board of supervisors of each county to establish a joint 911 service board for the purpose of maintaining a countywide 911 service plan. Each political subdivision having a public safety agency serving territory within the county, and each local emergency management agency operating within the county, is entitled to voting membership on the board. This bill provides that the sheriff of each county, or the sheriff’s designee, is also entitled to voting membership on a joint 911 service board.

Changed since by amendment H-1068; see Amendments.
