Emergency Notification

This is the service that calls your phone in emergency situations and community announcements. The service will automatically call all landline phones in the village for emergency calls. Due to new government regulations, you must elect to be called during severe weather. Also if you want to include your cell phone number(s) you can also do that at this time. We have used this service in the past for planned water outages and trash schedule changes but could also be used to inform you of evacuations, boil orders, and shelter information in inclement weather when power may be out. All households are encouraged to sign up and enroll their cell phone numbers. Do this by clicking on the Code Red link.
