Proclamation
National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week
April 14 - 20, 2024
Whereas, across the nation in times of intense personal crisis and community-wide disasters, the first access point for those seeking emergency services is 9-1-1; and Whereas, local and county public safety communications centers that receive these calls have emerged as the first and single point of contact for persons seeking immediate relief during an emergency as well as those seeking to report suspicious behaviors and unusual incidents; and Whereas, while enduring shift work and frequent emergencies, City of Manteca Police Communications Dispatchers continue to perform their duties in a dedicated, diligent, and loyal manner; and Whereas, City of Manteca Police Communications Dispatchers provide a critical but seldom visible linkage between the citizen and police, fire, and emergency medical providers; and Whereas, City of Manteca Police Communications Dispatchers consistently perform outstanding public service that deserves praise and recognition; and Now, Therefore, I, Gary Singh, Mayor of the City of Manteca, on behalf of City Council, do hereby proclaim the week of April 14 - 20, 2024, as “National Public Telecommunicators Week” and commend the devotion, contribution and services of the public safety dispatchers who serve the City of Manteca.
DATE: April 16, 2024
