Minnetonka PD

Does Minnetonka still dispatch themselves or did they go to Hennepin?. I thought this was going to happen at some point. It's been a while since I have been monitoring and I have not heard anything on their talkgroup 10788.

Minnetonka is dispatched by Hennepin County.

 

[Scott73]

Thanks. I had a feeling it was. It's not that quiet in Minnetonka..

Wasn't St Louis Park going to let Edina take over their dispatching for them? I remember reading that but it was a long time ago.

 

[stmills]

St. Louis Park provided dispatch for Golden Valley for a number of years, the when costs went up GV moved to Edina for a few years before moving to Hennepin Dispatch, when GV had decided to transition to Hennepin Richfield was looking at dispatch options and moved to Edina. I have heard speculation that SLP would move dispatch I am not aware of any plans for that to happen. Edina would seem the logical choice, similar city services and structure.
Big picture view I could see a good case made for a regional Combined 911 center replacing Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Edina & Richfield, St. Louis Park.
