Project Description:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To fund major capital cost of conversion from 911 to expanded E 911.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Services Provided/Benefit to State:

 

 

 

 

 

The residents of Hendry County will gain a more efficient system that will not only save lives but improve response time by local emergency care providers. Hendry County, currently at a $10.00 millage rate, is one of the last counties in our state to convent to an expanded 911 system.  These funds will allow the state to accomplish its goal of having statewide enhanced 911 services.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Measurable Outcome Anticipated:

 

 

 

 

 

Not only will the residents of Hendry County feel safer and lives be saved but also those that travel through the area will benefit from an enhanced system.  Once completed the state will be one step closer to meeting its goal of having statewide enhanced 911 services.
