Emergency 911
The Iberia Parish Communications District is your primary resource for emergency communication services. Our department plays a crucial role in the safety and well-being of our residents by managing the E-911 Communications System. With a dedicated team and state-of-the-art technology, we ensure that emergency calls are handled promptly and efficiently, providing critical support to first responders and the community.
The Communications District is responsible for administering the E-911 system, which includes setting up and managing new addresses for residents throughout Iberia Parish. Proper address management is vital for ensuring that emergency services can quickly locate homes and businesses in times of need. Whether you are moving to a new residence, establishing a business, or updating your current address, our office is here to assist you every step of the way.
Our department operates under the guidance of a board of commissioners appointed by the Iberia Parish Council. This board is responsible for establishing the policies and procedures that govern the E-911 system, ensuring that we adhere to best practices and continually improve our services. We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of emergency communication to protect our community’s safety and well-being.
Funding for the Communications District is provided by a 911 fee included in your phone bill. This fee is essential for maintaining and upgrading our emergency response infrastructure, ensuring that our equipment and technology remain cutting-edge. By investing in these resources, we can provide the most efficient and reliable emergency services possible.
We take pride in serving Iberia Parish and are dedicated to the ongoing enhancement of our emergency communication systems. Your safety is our top priority, and we are here to support you. If you have any questions about our services or need assistance with address creation, please do not hesitate to contact us. Together, we can ensure that our community remains safe, connected, and prepared.
