With the Cold War long over, the County is trading in its cramped and outdated Emergency Operations Center (EOC) for a new $37 million building to coordinate the response to disasters. It will also serve as a home for the County's 9-1-1 public safety dispatchers, a secure data center and the daily offices of the San Mateo County Office of Emergency Services and Division of Homeland Security of the Sheriff’s Office.
"No day is ever routine - one call may be a minor traffic accident, while the next is a frantic voice screaming for help." Rarely will you ever get a chance to meet the hundreds of people who call for help, yet they'll depend on your voice, your directions, and your knowledge to get through an emergency.

The San Mateo County Tattoo Removal Program is happy to announce its GRAND REOPENING after a two year hiatus caused when the old laser machine became unusable and could not be repaired. Over the past two years, many people have worked hard to raise funds and many more have donated to purchase the new laser machine that cost approximately $100,000.
