He said that walls had been taken down and new ones constructed to reconfigure the space. “It was a big job, and it’s just about done,” Gurney said last week. According to the chief, the borough’s former communication system was outdated, and had to be brought in line with the Federal Communications Commission’s recent mandate, which requires the use of a specific frequency. Gurney added that, in order to effect the frequency change, the department had to upgrade all of its radios, repeaters, receivers, and antennas. The borough covered the cost of the update, he said. The public is invited to attend the April 6 event, which will include tours of the communication center, a light breakfast, and the dedication to Stegen. Gurney noted that he got his start in the Ramsey Police Department due to Stegen, who recommended Gurney for a position as a civilian dispatcher in 1979.
