Central dispatch millage pulled from commission agenda

A possible millage sought later this year by the county’s E-911 Central Dispatch agency is off the table.
Central Dispatch Director Dennis Brandenburg broached the subject during the commission’s Jan. 11 executive committee meeting. The proposed millage, which would have appeared before voters in May, would have sought up to four-tenths of a mill.
It would have generated up to $750,000 annually over what would have been a seven-year period.
Commissioners decided to not back Brandenburg’s request, in part, because the county spent a considerable amount of money under former agency director Andy Goldberger to address some of the issues cited by Brandenburg for which the millage dollars would have targeted.
The issue was pulled from Tuesday’s county commission meeting agenda.
