Expect to receive a quicker response time from officials if you live in Barrow County.

The county purchased new radio systems from Motorola so local emergency agencies can better communicate with each other. One fire official and four law enforcement officials received a tutorial Tuesday morning. They have communicated through a third-party but now can respond quicker by speaking directly with one another.

Harry Goldberg, the Motorola instructor trainer, explains how these new systems will be effective.
