MILTON, Ga., April 28, 2014 - With dangerous weather conditions looming, now is the perfect time to ensure you receive emergency updates from the City of Milton by signing up for the CodeRED high-speed notification system.
The system, which allows Milton to quickly deliver messages in emergency situations to targeted areas or the entire city, comes stocked with all listed phone numbers existing within the last year.
However, businesses and residents must input numbers if they:
- have unlisted phone numbers,
- changed their phone number or address within the past year
- use a cellular or VoIP phone as their primary number
Required information includes first and last name, street address, city, state, zip code and primary phone number. Additional phone numbers can be entered, as well. All information is secure and will not be used for anything but emergency alerts.
To sign up, click here. You may also visit the City of Milton's Web site, www.cityofmiltonga.us, and click on the CodeRED logo in the "Connect to Milton" section in the upper left corner.
If you would prefer to sign up over the phone, simply call 678-242-2500 and say you would like to register. We'll take care of the rest.
"If your phone number is not in the CodeRED database, you will not be called," said Matthew Marietta, Milton's emergency manager. "Do not assume you are in the database - in an emergency, you'd rather get two calls then none at all."
