| Consolidated Dispatch Services | | |
Progress towards consolidating dispatch services within the North Shore continued this week with the Bayside Village Board approving an Intergovernmental Agreement Thursday evening. Currently, Glendale, Shorewood and Whitefish Bay pool resources for the Whitefish Bay-based center. Bayside, Fox Point and River Hills are dispatched from Bayside; and Brown Deer has its own center. Under the new agreement, further consolidation would result within the North Shore.
Consolidating dispatch centers will result not only in a cost savings for each community, but the pooled resources will also result in enhanced services for all North Shore residents. The other North Shore communities will consider the same agreement in the days and weeks ahead.
