SL —— > By JOHN HOINSKI Staff Writer The concept of a Back Mountain Communica- tion Advisory Committee officially became a reality last week at a meeting at the Kingston Township Municipal building with eight repre- sentatives from four communities comprising the board. The commission, which is the only one of its kind in the area, will be made up of Kingston Township, Dallas Borough, Dallas Township and Harveys Lake Borough, with the communication center to continue operating out of the Dallas Township Municipal building. Those making up the board include: Ambrose Gavigan, vice chairman of the Kington Town- ship supervisors; Paul Sabol, Kingston Town- ship police chief and chairman of the group; Tim Carroll, Dallas Borough councilman; Ed Lyons, Dallas Borough police chief and secre- tary-treasurer of the commission; Phil Walter, chairman of the Dallas Township suprvisors and vice chairman of the board; Carl Miers, Dallas Township police chief; Joe Boyle, mayor of Harveys Lake and Lionel Bulford, Harveys Lake police chief. Under the new format, each community would have an equal say on how the operation is run. That makes it unique from other similar setups that provide dispatching or answering services only, but do not allow any input on funtional matters from those towns that are being served. The elected officials would vote solely on financial dealings, although the police chiefs could offer input, while all eight members would have a vote on items such as hiring, firing, reprimanding and other matters.

What we will be working on is improving what we can through training and the addition of equipment.” Currently the three pay approximately $14,500 to Dallas Township which has the final say in all matters. Under the new agreement, which is a one year deal that may be extended to three, the commission will operate on a separate budget. Each of the four could already expect a 5 or 6 per cent increase for the 1987 budget. To help defray costs, the Commission is also looking to expand the dispatching service to smaller neighboring police departments that presently have only an answering service. Those who wish to join would probably pay on a per capita basis but would have no say on the commission. One improvement the board has already talked about is the buying of a recorder that would tape all phone calls that come into the dispatcher. “It would be more professional and we would cover ourselves for liability,” Sabol explained. “Now it is one person’s word against anothers.” The commission has also talked about pur- chasing a 911 emergency unit, but that will probably come some time in 1988, possibly with the aid of federal grant money. each month at revolving sites ameng the four communities. The November meeting will be held at 8 p.m. at the Dallas Township Municipal Building.
