Denver’s public safety agency is pushing to roughly double the fee for 911 emergency services, arguing it’s necessary to keep operations afloat and meet response time requirements.
The proposed fee hike — from $1.20 to $2.12 per month — would apply to all residents who have a phone, whether landline or mobile, registered in the city.
“This change will allow us to maintain operations through the rest of 2025 and set us up for success in some of the infrastructure and staffing moves that we’ve been making over the last few years,” Dameron said.
