The Ellis County Commission will discuss upcoming improvement projects to the communications center at Monday’s meeting.

Emergency officials in Ellis County have been working to replace aging equipment in the Ellis County Dispatch Center, which in some cases is more than 20 years old.

Director of Fire and Emergency Management Darin Myers said most of the equipment is now obsolete and the county is unable to get replacement parts.

The commission will also hear from 111th District Rep.-elect Eber Phelps at Monday’s meeting. Phelps will discuss legislative priorities with the commission.

Monday’s meeting will begin at 5 p.m. at the County Administrative Center.
