Public Safety Answering Point Agreement (PSAP)
The PSAP program is administered through the Monmouth County Sheriff’s Office.
This shared service provides 9-1-1, emergency, police, and fire dispatch at a greatly reduced cost to Monmouth municipalities through reducing duplication of services, personnel, and equipment.
One Monmouth County municipality recently estimated cost savings of over $600,000 per year by switching to the County Sheriff's shared service dispatch system.
Municipalities may take advantage of accessing the Sheriff’s Office's highly trained, experienced, and time-tested dispatch system through the shared service initiative. Currently, 45 Monmouth municipalities, two military facilities, nine police departments, 30 fire departments, and 22 first aid squads utilize this valuable and cost-efficient shared service. In addition, backup services are provided to 14 agencies through the County.
For assistance with entering into a PSAP Agreement, contact the Office of Shared Services by phone at 732-577-2925 or by email sharedservices@co.monmouth.nj.us.
