The CodeRED system gives city officials the ability to deliver pre-recorded emergency telephone notification/information messages to targeted areas or the entire city at a rate of up to 60,000 calls per hour.
CodeRED system is a geographical based notification system, which means street addresses are needed to select which phone numbers will receive emergency notification calls in any given situation.
No one should automatically assume his or her phone number is included. Businesses should register, as well as individuals who have unlisted phone numbers, have changed their phone number or address within the last year, and use a cellular phone as their primary home phone.

Important notes:
If you have caller ID installed on your phone, the CodeRED call may display as an "unknown caller", however, the number will be 999-911-9999. Please make a note of this and do not disregard calls from this number!

• The CodeRED system will record messages to voicemail and answering machines.
• When there is no answer at a telephone number, CodeRED will attempt to deliver messages three times before deleting from the queue.
• Examples of times when the CodeRED system could be utilized: drinking water contamination, utility outage, evacuation notice & route, missing person, fires or floods, bomb threat, hostage situation, chemical spill or gas leak and other emergency incidents where rapid and accurate notification is essential for life safety.
