(TILLAMOOK, OR. December 6, 2024) The Tillamook County Board of Commissioners would like to thank the voters for passing Measure 29-180 this November. The commissioners take taxpayer investment in this system seriously. They know rising costs are a concern for many and they appreciate the community’s support to strengthen the public safety system. Passing this measure will fund critical upgrades to the county’s public safety communications system. This system is the cornerstone of how the county and its partners keep residents, visitors, and first responders safe – connecting 9-1-1 dispatch, ambulance response, local fire departments, Sheriff’s office, and more. The county will be providing updates on the project’s website at tillamookpublicsafety.org. The county will form a group representing the public and radio users to provide project oversight. Funding for the project will be separate from other county funds and programs.
