I want to thank our first responders for moving quickly to communicate and prepare the City for a potential emergency. Thankfully, the alert was called off, but I highly encourage everyone to sign up for SMC Alert so you can be contacted during urgent or emergency situations which may include life safety, fire, weather, accidents involving utilities or roadways or disaster notifications.

An important safety reminder is that it is very difficult for drivers to see pedestrians in who are dressed in dark clothing. We strongly encourage residents to wear a light-colored jacket or a reflective vest when out walking at night. We encourage motorists to slow down, and to please look out for pedestrians, particularly when navigating turns across crosswalks. Thank you for helping keep our neighborhoods safe!   Take the Age-Friendly Survey Help shape South San Francisco’s Age-Friendly Action Plan by completing our survey.
