Franklin County, IN — Franklin County leaders want to move the 9-1-1 center out of the county jail building (pictured) and are considering three options to house dispatch operations.

Those options are using the Town of Brookville administration building; county-owned land next to Franklin County Public Transportation headquarters, and adding extra space to the planned 4-H building at the Franklin County Fairgrounds.

County officials say the current setup in the Franklin County Security Center is outdated, lacks sufficient space, and poses safety issues for dispatch staff.
