We would like to spread the word to you and your loved ones about North Shore Emergency Management’s Rapid Notify Alerting System.  It’s very important to self-register so that you will be well informed should there be an emergency situation in your neighbourhood!

“The North Shore is a safe place to live however, a serious emergency event affecting ones health and safety can happen anywhere at any time.

The Rapid Notify emergency notification system is used by Police, Fire, or our emergency operations center to notify as many residents and businesses as quickly as possible to emergency situations. Calls are delivered to phone numbers generated from white pages data and is delivered in a simple and clear voice message. In addition if you self-register, you can receive messages to your cell phone, or by text and email. All calls are generated and tracked by computer to make sure every number is called – more than once if necessary. The system can call each number up to two separate times, a few minutes apart, until a connection is made. So if you don’t hear one call, there’ll be another. If you are not home, your answering system will record the message.”
