Who qualifies for Regional E-911 assistance?
As of January 1, 2005 , there are 11 counties in Georgia without any basic E-911 service. OneGeorgia Authority has set aside $3,000,000 to help these counties establish Regional E-911 service. OneGeorgia Authority defines “regional” as an E-9-1-1 system that is: a) jointly owned by two or more counties; b) owned by an authority that contains at least two counties; or c) involves an intergovernmental service agreement between multiple public jurisdictions containing two or more counties. Award limits will be based on the number of counties combined: 2 counties maximum $400,000, 3 counties maximum $500,000, 4 counties maximum $600,000 and 5 or more counties maximum $700,000.
