# County's 911 fund set to spend more than it takes in next year

## What happened
The county's Emergency Telephone Service (911) fund expects to bring in $622,236 next year but is requesting a budget of $711,193, so it will dip into its cash reserves to cover the roughly $89,000 gap. Separately, a new 911 call recorder — replacing one that is 15 years old — will be paid for by the state, not out of this fund.

## The outcome
The committee approved the 911 fund's $711,193 budget on a voice vote.
