Emergency Notifications -- In the event of an emergency, the city will contact individuals or groups in a certain area that have the potential to be affected by an emergency situation. Emergency notifications are used in a situation that has an effect, or may have an effect, on a certain number of people involving immediate or pending threats to public safety or property and where immediate notification is necessary. Emergency notifications can be sent Citywide if circumstances of the event dictate this type of widespread notification to be necessary.
Community Notifications -- Community notifications are meant to notify residents and interested parties about events or projects that may temporarily impact their day-to-day routine but do not impact health or safety. The city will contact individuals only if they choose to receive this type of news. Community notifications will be disseminated between 6 a.m. and 9 p.m., but some community messages may be sent out earlier or later than these time frames, depending on the category. Upon registration and sign-in with the system, individuals can select which Community Notification categories, if any, they would like to receive.
