Elbert County Communications Authority

EMERGENCY?  CALL 911

The Elbert County Communications Authority (ECCA) is the E9-1-1 Authority for Elbert County, Colorado.  ECCA provides communications equipment and infrastructure to all emergency agencies in the county, and funds emergency dispatch services.  It also provides significant funding for radios and other communications equipment for those agencies.

ECCA works cooperatively with Douglas County and the state to provide a network of communications towers and equipment that reaches all parts of the county. 

ECCA is governed by a board of directors made up of representatives from all emergency agencies in the county.  The board members are from seven fire departments, two town police departments, the sheriff’s office, a county commissioner and one citizen.  That board meets quarterly. The monthly business of ECCA is performed by an Executive Committee elected from the board.  Meeting dates and times are posted at the county building in Kiowa and Elizabeth Police Department and are available through the links on this page.

The links on this page also provide access to meeting agendas, minutes, budget and other information.
