DPW emergency response call-out system

Troy

Summary

The city replaced its retired reverse-911-style dispatch tool with Daupler, which texts all on-call crews at once and lets supervisors text residents back about water main breaks and other emergencies. Faster call-outs mean quicker response during storms and infrastructure failures.
