Thurston/Washington state codes

[pklong]

No clearing codes really. Resolved, close with report etc. pretty self explanatory. As far as unit number goes it goes, for the most part, agency number, beat, and unit number.
1= Thurston County Sheriffs office
2= Olympia Police
3= Lacey Police
4= Tumwater Police
5= Tenino Police (which covers Rainier and Bucoda)
6= Yelm Police
7= Not used, used to be Rainier
8= Nisqually Tribal Police
9= Coroners office
10= CAPCOM employees.

Tac 2: Tumwater and Lacey
Tac 3: Car-to-car in city
Tac 4: I think LERN
Tac 5: car-to-car
Data: Data

We don't use 10 codes to dispatch calls, plain English only. A fight is a disturbance, and a vehicle prowl is what it is. 99 is lunch, 10-42 is going home, 81 is at the station, code 42 is mental, code 15 is no further assistance needed. For the most part, everything else is plain English. The posted code list, though nice as it is, isn't applicable to us in Thurston County. Having been around for 10+ years I may sneak in an odd code here and there but usualy a new person replies back on the radio with something to the effect of, HUH???

What/where is 'building 1' or 'building 5' ?
