Marin Emergency Contacts

January 28th, 2009 By Ginger Wilcox

We all know 9-1-1 is the number to call in an emergency from a land line, but did you know that 9-1-1- calls generated from a cell phone are answered outside Marin? If you call 9-1-1- from the cell, it is likely to be answered by the CHP in Benicia.

While still useful, it may take longer to generate a response. Program in the local emergency number for the Marin County Communications Center for the most direct response. The local Marin County Emergency number is 415-472-0911.
