DEFIANCE COUNTY 911 CENTER

The 911 Center for Defiance County was built onto the Defiance County Sheriff's Office in 1996. The 911 Center is the central point for emergency services throughout Defiance County. The 911 Center dispatches for the Sheriff's Office, Defiance, Hicksville, and Sherwood Police Departments, and 11 fire departments.

The 911 Center is staffed by one director, 13 full-time, and 2 part-time dispatchers. Oversight of the Center is provided by the 911 board, made up of local agency heads.

Enhanced 911 services are funded through a local tax levy. During the last fiscal year this levy was reduced by .1 mill, in an effort to return unneeded funds to the taxpayers.

For questions or comments regarding 911 services in Defiance County contact: Carol Armitage, Director at 419-784-1155 or email to def911@defiance-county.com.
