New York Post-
California, a state that prides itself on being the epicenter of technology, has taught an absolute masterclass in bureaucratic incompetence — scrapping a new 911 system that cost more than $450 million in taxpayer money.
The staggering sum, which ballooned from initial estimates in 2019, was poured into the “Next Generation 911” project meant to modernize the state’s antiquated 1970’s-era emergency line. Six years later, the state’s emergency services agency (Cal OES) has thrown in the towel, declaring the initial regional design a complete failure.
