Santa Clara County supervisors have approved funding today for a county-wide emergency alert system for use in the case of a catastrophic event or disaster.
Multiple formats will be used to communicate with residents of the 15 cities in the county as well as unincorporated areas, informing them of evacuation areas, shelter locations and other life-saving information targeting the county's roughly 1.8 million residents and 565,000 household.
