When there is a need for Denver Police Code 10, how should the Incident Commander communicate this need?

The correct choice involves communicating the need for Denver Police Code 10 through fire dispatch. This method ensures that the request is documented and can be dispatched by trained personnel who understand the protocols and can allocate police resources appropriately. Fire dispatch serves as a central communication hub that can relay the message quickly and efficiently to relevant law enforcement units, ensuring a rapid response to the situation at hand.

Communicating directly to the local police station or through radio to all units may lead to potential misunderstandings or delays in response, as it breaks the established chain of command and communication protocols. Notifying the mayor's office would be inappropriate, as this is not an immediate action that deals with the operational response needed in emergencies; instead, it involves a higher level of bureaucracy that would not be effective for urgent police assistance.
