Montcalm County voters overwhelmingly approved renewing a surcharge with a slight increase for Montcalm County Central Dispatch operations in today’s special election.
Earlier this year, as a large ice storm brought much of Montcalm County’s communities to a crawl, one agency was as busy as it has ever been, answering emergency calls left and right. On Feb. 27, dispatchers at Montcalm County Central Dispatch answered more than 231 calls for downed power lines over a period of 21 hours, dispatching fire departments to every corner of the county to keep communities safe.
