I have a cordless phone, and it does not work when the power goes out. How is the Town going to be able to contact me?
There are two ways you can continue to receive telephone messages from the Town through CodeRED: Make sure you have at least one working corded telephone and be sure to turn the ringer on. The CodeRED Residential Data Collection sign-up form gives you the option of filling in both a Primary Phone number and an alternate phone number. You can fill in the Alternate Phone number blank with your cell telephone number, or you can make it your Primary Phone number if you wish. Entering an alternate phone number will cause BOTH your primary and alternate phone numbers to be called. Of course, no form of communication is guaranteed to remain in operation under severe conditions such as those produced by a powerful snow storm or an ice storm. CodeRED does widen the safety margin by offering Town residents another new and powerful means of learning about vital, timely information.
