A power outage at the Colonie communications center, 312 Wolf Road, this morning affected the center’s ability to accept 9-1-1 calls for a brief time period.
Colonie Town Supervisor Mary E. Brizzell stated that power has since been restored to the town’s communications center.
I was advised of the power outage and assured that none of our residents were ever in jeopardy of not having their emergency calls answered, said Brizzell.
Residents could still dial 9-1-1 in cases of emergency and those calls were handled by the town of Guilderland who in turn dispatched Colonie emergency service personnel.
