He said as it ends, Chapel Hill is responsible for funding <br /> the clinicians and peer support specialists, and the county is responsible for the community EMTs. He said <br /> the county used to fund a person in the 911 call center, but they are not recommending it for the future <br /> due to low-call volume. <br /> Commissioner Portie-Ascott asked how long the county has had a CARE Team. <br /> Travis Myren said two years. <br /> Slide#29 <br /> Emergency Services Department — Fire and Life Safety <br /> FY 27 Rec.
