The City announced today that Smart911, the public safety service first implemented in 2012, will now offer additional features to enhance communication between the community and public safety agencies. When a resident or business owner creates a private and secure Safety Profile at www.smart911.com, in addition to providing details about their household to 9-1-1 on emergency calls, Smart911 will now give community members the option to opt-in to receive emergency and general notifications from the City.
This Smart911 option replaces the CodeRed emergency and weather notifications. Since the City of Decatur is no longer using the CodeRed system, all CodeRed users who wish to continue to receive emergency alerts from the city should create a private and secure Safety Profile at www.Smart911.com. (If you have an AT&T land line, that number is already in the system.) Anyone already registered with a Safety Profile at Smart911.com can simply log into their account to opt-in to the new enhanced features.
