What types of messages will be sent using the AlertTC service?
The primary use of the system is to disseminate messages pertaining to the health, safety or welfare of our community. Examples would include, but are not limited to, evacuation / shelter-in-place notices, boil water notices, severe weather warnings and updates, power outage notices and road closures. All contacts (listed, unlisted, and self-registered) will receive emergency notifications that affect their location. By default, those residents and businesses with listed telephone numbers, and those who have opted in during self-registration, will receive non-emergency calls. Non-emergency calls are limited by policy to useful, time-sensitive information from local government agencies. No commercial, political, or personal messages will be sent via AlertTC.
