Public Safety Communications Center      

PSC LogoThe Public Safety Communications (PSC) Center is a multi-agency communication center that provides full communication services for the Sarasota County Fire Department, Nokomis Fire Department, Venice Fire Department, North Port Fire Department, Englewood Fire Department, Sarasota Police Department (SPD), and the Sarasota County Sheriff's Office (SSO).  Annually we process over 467,000
9-1-1 and non-emergency calls.

The PSC is an intergovernmental partnership among Sarasota County Government, the SSO and the law/fire/rescue agencies that we serve.  The Center is governed by a Policy Board consisting of senior representatives from each agency served.

There are 110 full time and 8 part time SSO personnel assigned to the PSC.  One thing that makes the PSC unique is that there are three non Sheriff's Office positions also assigned to the Center.  Sarasota County Emergency Services supplies our Support Manager/Fire Liaison and our Administrative Assistant.  The SPD supplies our City of Sarasota Liaison.  The different uniforms worn by those assigned with the Center depicts what our consolidation is all about.
