311
The City of El Paso has activated the 3-1-1 phone number that connects citizens with the City’s Customer Service Call Center to answer phone calls relating to city services and programs. The purpose of the Customer Service Center is to centralize the incoming calls into one agency location rather than the current process of various numbers and locations. The centralized Customer Service Center allows for improved service to citizens and reduces the number of 911 and non-emergency calls. Call Center hours of operation are Monday-Sunday 7:00 am to 11:00 pm including holidays.
