Hello. As always, reader discretion is advised. It is also advised that you consult with an attorney before reading this post.
The Denver Auditor's Office has reviewed response times of when a 911 dispatcher answers a 911 call to when the Denver Police Department officer arrives on scene in 2013 was 14.3 minutes. Less officers means increased response times.
BTW, What is defined as a Level 0-2 call and as a Level 3-6 call? What is the difference between them? I would like to find out. More officers mean more money spent by the Denver Police Department. Who has the money anyway and who is in control of it?
So, in essence, cities can buy in to reduce response times. Who will flip the bill for it? All 911 calls cost money. How much is the average 911 call and the responses to it? Can somebody give me an estimate where you live whether in Denver or any other city? This is a story that should have a follow up.
That's it for this post. Until my next blog post, be aware.
P.S. I tweeted with Lindsay Watts from KMGH-TV in Denver, CO. She said that a Level 0-2 is an emergency, life threatening situation. The higher the level number, the lower the priority.
