Currently, all phone lines in our 24-hour communication center (including 9-1-1 and 650-329-2413) are not functioning due to a widespread network outage from AT&T.

If you need emergency assistance (police, fire, or medical), please call 9-1-1 and your call will be automatically switched to Santa Clara County Communications.

We will advise when regular service has been restored.
