Computer Aided Dispatch

In 2021, Sheriff Eric Garza implemented computer-aided dispatch (CAD) at the Cameron County Sheriff's Office, bringing numerous benefits to both deputies and the community. The implementation of CAD streamlined the dispatch process, allowing for quicker and more efficient allocation of resources to incidents. Deputies now have access to comprehensive information through CAD, enabling them to make well-informed decisions and enhancing their situational awareness on the field. This improved coordination and communication between dispatchers, deputies, and other agencies involved, leads to a more synchronized response to emergencies. Overall, CAD implementation under Sheriff Garza's leadership has enhanced the Sheriff's Office's capabilities, resulting in improved public safety and a more effective and coordinated emergency response system in the community.
