Clark County has technicians working day and night trying to restore voice mail for approximately 1,200 county government phone lines.
The system failure occurred earlier this week, said Mike Westerman of the county’s general services department.
“The system was putting out too much power and it took down major computer boards,” Westerman said in a news release issued Thursday. “We have a team working to determine why it happened so they can prescribe and implement a solution.”
Westerman said it’s not clear when the system will be back in service. Technicians have to repair connections between an older phone system and a voice mail system that had been scheduled for replacement later this year.
