Buildout of the Southern Regional Emergency Operations Center is expected to take two years. Once complete, a 39,000-square-foot office and 21,000-square-foot warehouse will accommodate 24/7 personnel, public safety communications operations, a radio maintenance shop and emergency vehicle storage.
As a backup to the state’s primary center in Sacramento County, the center will provide a collaboration and meeting place in times of crisis and disaster for first responders, elected officials and staff, serving 23 million people across 11 counties and 226 cities.
