Washington-Yuma Combined Communications Center (commonly called W-Y Comm or W-YCCC) is the primary public safety answering point (PSAP) for Washington and Yuma counties in northeast Colorado. We’re here to help twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, and 365 days a year, and dispatch all local fire, law, and EMS within both counties.
W-Y Comm serves an estimated 15,000 people spread out over our 4,893 square miles. Across this expanse, we dispatch for 4 law enforcement, 5 ambulance, and 15 fire departments.
We answer an estimated 40,000 calls every year. They’re not all emergencies, though. We answer nearly all of the calls placed to our user agencies. Any call for the county jail or code enforcement is filtered through us.
