Several support services offered by the Office of Public Safety are provided at their office in the General Services building. The office is staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. There are also certain situations when Public Safety will respond to specific locations as part of their duties. Requests for non-emergency services will be handled in the order in which they are received. Please be aware that requests for emergency services will be given priority over non-emergency services. Once the priority situation has been resolved, Public Safety Officers will resume responding to non-emergency service requests.
