Rothenburger
Announces Execution of Agreement with Metro United Way
for 2-1-1 Service
SHELBYVILLE, KY.
Shelby County Fiscal Court has authorized County
Judge-Executive Rob Rothenburger to execute an agreement
between the Metro United Way and the Shelby County
Emergency Management Association for 2-1-1 telephone
service during a crisis or natural disaster.
2-1-1 telephone
service has the ability to assist in times of crisis and
disaster by providing vital information to concerned
citizens regarding neighborhood and area access, health
hazards, utilities repair, shelters, and clean-up
efforts. “2-1-1 telephone service is a critical
component during disaster response and recovery efforts
by lessening non-emergency calls to 9-1-1 centers,”
Rothenburger stated.
Shelby County Fiscal
Court will pay $1,000 annually to Metro United Way to
defray operating costs for the 2-1-1 service. 2-1-1 is
now in effect for Shelby County.
