Communications Center
The
Springboro Police Communications Center is staffed 17 hours a day, 5
days a week (from the hours of 12:30 AM - 7:30 AM calls are routed to Warren
County). It is the responsibility of the police dispatcher to quickly
and accurately identify the nature of your call and assist in solving
the problem. The dispatcher is the critical link between the citizen
and the Police Officer, as they screen calls and transfer the information
to the police officers.
The Dispatch Center receives a variety of calls, which may vary from a simple request for information to a report of a life threatening incident, the dispatcher must ask specific questions to accurately prioritize the call and assign it to a police officer, or direct your call to the appropraite resource. The amount of time it takes to obtain this information determines how quickly an officer is able to respond.
When requesting service for non-emergency situations, we ask for your patience in waiting for the arrival of a police officer, as emergency calls have priority. The officer will respond to your call as soon as possible
