ADDING YOUR TELEPHONE NUMBER TO THE 'CodeRED' EMERGENCY CALL-OUT SYSTEM
Many people will choose to submit unlisted numbers or cell phone numbers in order to receive emergency notifications at those numbers. All telephone numbers must be associated with a physical address, since the emergency call-out procedure is based on selection of a geographic area to receive calls. The link to CodeRED will take you to a Residential Data Update Page that will allow entry of information directly into the database of telephone numbers used in making emergency calls. When a recorded emergency message is sent out, the automated system will attempt to deliver a message to all phone numbers within a selected geographic area. Calls can be accepted by persons and by answer machines. The call-out service may be used to deliver messages related to the water supply, emergency notifications required by the police or fire department operations, or to deliver information related to a hurricane threat or other weather-related event.
