The 2026-27 Budget: Office of Emergency Services Next Generation 911 System

Feb 27, 2026 - The additional amount that would be needed depends on many different variables, including: (1)  the extent to which the state is able to incorporate the existing Next Generation 911  components deployed under the regional approach, (2)  how quickly it can decommission the legacy 911 system, (3)  the cost of the interim contract and solutions, and (4)  the time (and cost) of building out and deploying the new statewide  system.
