On this day in 1987, the first 911 call was received in Cobb County. After years of preparation, the enhanced emergency phone system was officially launched at 12:01 AM. Led by Mike Dye, the Cobb County Police Department’s 911 Coordinator, this project successfully brought together “the marriage of modern technology to good, old-fashioned public safety service.” With 700 calls being answered on that first day, Cobb’s 911 system ushered in a new era in emergency response for the county and proved just how important 911 is to the community. Today, our team processes over 2000 calls daily, working hard to be there for you when you need us most. For 38 years, we’ve been here, answering the call. We’ve got you covered, Cobb County! #TeamCobb911 #WeAreCobb911
