District 7 is actually out of the Gaylord dispatch center. There they answer all of Otsego Counties 911 calls as well as traffic for district 7 and district 3.
I know District 2 dispatch, known as "20" is downtown detroit, last i knew it was at the Greyhound station.
And district 7 "70" is at the traverse city post *i think*.
I am sorry Flintstone4680 I should have been more specific in my post this morning. I stated that the Gaylord Dispatch Center handles Otsego Counties 911 and traffic for D7 and D3. That traffic includes LEIN, generating complaint numbers, roads and weather as well as units checking in at the start of their shift with mobile and prep numbers and again at the end of their shift. General dispatch and 911 calls are dispatched from the 911 call centers in both D7 and D3. I know where most 911 call centers are up north here but am not familiar where they are in D3.
A couple of years ago while traveling to and from down state I would here the same dispatchers voices that I hear up here all the time up here in D7 but they were talking to D3 units on their TG's and could not figure out why so I asked a state police officer. He told me then that station 70 and station 30 radio traffic originates from the dispatch center here in Gaylord in the same room but different consoles. The dispatchers also answer phones from the posts that may not have an officer at the posts. So when you or anyone from D3 hears a D3 car requesting a complaint number from station 30 the voice on the other end is from a dispatcher sitting or standing at a console here in Gaylord.
Thanks,

No, District 2 is now dispatched out of the Metro Post on 10 mile road in Madison Heights. They built that several years ago and dispatch D2 North, South East and West from there.
Unfortunately this info is incorrect, the Station 20 Metro Dispatch center is still downtown Detroit.
Anyone know why there is no District 4? Was it combined into another district?
Yep. According to this map from 1992 district 4 was merged with district 1 and 5.
