that would ensure that fire and police supervisors will be able to direct dispatching operations in the
event of an emergency and no dispatch supervisor is available. The Board discussed the plan and
related issues, as those issues related to the CVPSA presentation to the meeting of the joint City
Councils (Montpelier and Barre) in Montpelier on Wednesday, December 7th.
