The second full week of April is set aside as a time to express our thanks and appreciation for public safety telecommunicators around the country. Darien is a member of DU-COMM, which is an intergovernmental agency formed in 1975 to provide public safety communications services to Police, Fire, and EMS agencies. Today,
DU-COMM serves forty-four (44) agencies in DuPage County and is one of the largest consolidated 9-1-1 centers in Illinois. In 2018 DU-COMM processed over 1.2 million phone calls and over 750,000 police and Fire/EMS incidents.
On behalf of the City of Darien, we say thank you!
