New Non-Emergency Number Phone Tree

911

The Chillicothe/Livingston County Law Enforcement Center is implementing a new non-emergency number phone tree in an effort to help better direct citizens to services in non-emergency situations.

The new phone tree will be attached to the department's non-emergency number, 660-646-2121, and will give individuals options to speak with several areas of the Law Enforcement Center for non-emergency situations.

Examples of non-emergency situations include questions for an officer, street lights that are out, loose animals and a host of other scenarios citizens experience on a daily basis that don't require a police officer's immediate attention.

Our dispatch center is experiencing staff shortages; therefore, we are trying to free up the dispatchers as much as possible so that they can devote their time to 911 calls and public safety as much as possible.

The public is still encouraged to make calls to 911 for emergency situations and to use the non-emergency number or make in-person reports for other non-emergency situations.

Call is as follows;

**Call 911 for Emergency**

For Non -Emergency Call 660-646-2121  Then press the number listed below for the service you are requesting
