On Friday, March 1, 2024, at 8:00 a.m., the Washington County Sheriff’s Office will stream radio traffic live through Broadcastify.
The Sheriff’s Office made a difficult decision to stop live streaming in July of 2023 when significant safety concerns arose during a critical incident that endangered those responding. To keep safety a top priority and remain transparent to our community, Broadcastify will stream radio traffic with a delay.
Broadcastify is a third-party vendor contracted with the Washington County Consolidated Communications Agency (WCCCA), responsible for maintaining the streaming service. You can also access Broadcastify via the link through WCCCA.
We appreciate your patience through this process.
