Got something to say about 911? Here’s a chance

On the surface, this is one of those mandatory public notices- but it’s about one of the most important services the county provides – so if you have something to say about the 911 Center, check out this notice from the King County Sheriff’s Office:

A team of assessors from the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, Inc. (CALEA) will arrive January 9, 2010, to examine all aspects of the King County Sheriff’s Office Communications Center’s policy and procedures, management, operations, and support services.

Verification by the team that the King County Sheriff’s Office Communications Center meets the Commissions state-of-the-art standards is part of a voluntary process to gain accreditation – a highly prized recognition of law enforcement communications professional excellence.

As part of the on-site assessment, agency employees and members of the community are invited to call in and offer comments. The public may call and speak with Assessors at 206-205-7518, on Monday, January 11th between the hours of 1:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m.

Telephone comments are limited to 10 minutes and must address the agency’s ability to comply with CALEA’s standards. A copy of the standards is available at the King County Sheriff’s Office. The local contact person is Accreditation Manager Tom Nesko, 206-205-4097.

Persons wishing to offer written comments about the King County Sheriff’s Communications Center’s ability to meet the standards for accreditation should write to: Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, Inc. (CALEA), 10302 Eaton Place, Suite 320, Fairfax, Virginia, 22030-2201.
