The Brown County Commission has approved an upgrade for the sheriff’s department’s repeater system.
Deputy James Traxler told commissioners Monday that the upgrade will include full remote access and management capability, which will shorten response time, improve public safety and save money on service calls.
The $920 cost for the upgrade will be paid to Midwest Mobile Radio Service from the commissioner fund.
