Public Alert System


The city has a public alert system that allows staff to contact residents in case of emergency situations affecting specific properties. This might include water shutoffs due to watermain breaks, sewer issues, road closures, recycling delays and similar issues. 

In order to make sure that resident information is up to date, each resident is encouraged to add up-to-date information in the public alert database. Each person at the residence should enter the subscription separately. Notifications are issued by voicemail for landlines, text, and email. For "billing number" enter any four or five-digit number if you do not have your utility account number.
