911 Information After all these years we still have many people who call 911 to ask for weather information or the correct time, where the fireworks displays will be or often to ask "what's the non-emergency number? How would you like to have your emergency request for an ambulance delayed because the dispatcher was busy giving another caller information that is easily available in any phone book or from directory assistance? Many people mistakingly call 911 thinking the dispatcher can transfer them to a non-emergency number. Because the 911 phone trunks are completely different from the normal phone lines we can not do this or it would keep that 911 line tied up for the entire time the person is on the non-emergency line! If you accidentally call 911 by mistake: Stay on the line and let the dispatcher know what happened. We have no way of knowing if you dialed the wrong number or if there is actually an emergency unless we can contact you, so all 911 calls (even hangups) are treated as emergencies. Most of the time a person has dialed the phone again so we have to have an operator break into the line so we can speak with someone and confirm that there is no emergency. In the meantime a police officer is being sent to the address just in case it is an emergency. All of this could be avoided if you just stay on the line and say "Sorry, wrong number." 911 saves lives by saving time. Please dial 911 for emergencies only. The non-emergency number to the police department is 421-8700. We want you to use 911, but not abuse it.
