Aiken County, in partnership with the City of North Augusta, is working on a project to update its
9-1-1 system. To respond to the growing use of cellular phones, the system is being updated to
what is called "Next Generation 9-1-1. " During this review, several parcels were identified that
are split by the city limits. Properties that straddle the city limits can be difficult for the 9-1-1
system to locate during an emergency. Clarifying these boundaries helps us properly dispatch law
enforcement and fire first responders to the correct location. The following four annexation
requests involve properties which straddle the city limits. There is no cost associated with this
• process and no fee or tax changes are expected as a result of the annexation.
