McNabb says requirements to receive designation include having a 24 hour warning point and emergency operation center, an action plan that responds to the threat of severe weather, promoting readiness, awareness and offering community education, the ability to deliver warnings in multiple ways and having a formal hazardous weather plan. Meanwhile, this is also National Public Safety Telecommunicator week, honoring dispatchers. A public open house will be held starting at 4:30 Wednesday afternoon at the Fond du lac County dispatch center.
