Recent Call Volume Increases from Incoming 911 Transfers

Lafayette County Sheriff Office is home to the county’s Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP), meaning any call to 911 within Lafayette County is automatically routed to Lafayette County 911 Dispatchers at the Lafayette County Sheriff Office. When calls are received at Lafayette County 911 from citizens that are currently within Oxford city limits, those calls are transferred from Lafayette County 911 to the Oxford Police Department. Calls received as transfers from Lafayette County 911 have increased four of the last five years.
