An advisory committee has been formed in New Fairfield about an emergency responder radio communications system. First Selectman Pat Del Monaco says the last time the town replaced the system was 10 to 15 years ago and they're looking at an approximately $2 million project this time around. She notes that a smaller group has been working to get as much information as possible about available options, but they want professional input and feedback from the people who use the system. The members represent law enforcement, fire, EMS, OEM, finance and IT.
The Advisory Committee will include:
Volunteer Fire Department Chief Bruce Taylor
Volunteer Fire Department 1st Lt Mitch Williams
Firefighter John Morelli
Board of Finance member and experience dispatcher Mark Beninson
Emergency Management Director Maria Evans
Finance Director Olga Melnikov
Director of IT Karen Fildes
Residents State Trooper Sgt Nick Ieraci
