The epicenter of communications for most of Kosciusko County's emergency services is now tucked away in the basement of the Justice Building. As of Dec.15, the six-station dispatching center is up and running, with IDACS - a system that allows law enforcement to check licensing records information - installation completed last week. The new location provides not only a larger work space and state-of-the art equipment for the county's 10 full-time dispatchers, but also a few amenities, such as a locker room for stowing personal belongings and a kitchen for storing and/or preparing meals during eight-hour shifts when dispatchers are confined to their work area.
