Be Alerted if an Emergency Arises

New Albany utilizes Everbridge to notify the entire community or targeted areas in case of an emergency or urgent situations that require immediate attention.  Everbridge is a modern emergency notification system designed to deliver faster, more reliable alerts when it matters most. Notifications include:

  • Natural disasters (tornado warnings/watches, fires, etc.)
  • Man-made disasters (terrorism, chemical spills, gas leaks, etc.)
  • Search and rescue (missing children, adults or disabled persons)
  • Crime (prisoner escape warnings, sexual offender/predator alerts, etc.)
  • Road closures
  • Urgent community updates
 

Everbridge uses a database of phone numbers and emails that is offered at no cost to residents and businesses. The information in the Everbridge database is secure and confidential and will only be used for emergency notification purposes.

Severe Weather Awareness – residents can receive severe weather alerts as part of their Everbridge registration. Additionally, residents can learn more about how to prepare for severe weather events at the Franklin County Emergency Management and Homeland Security website: fcemhs.org.

New Albany Launches New Emergency Alert System through Everbridge

The City of New Albany is upgrading how we communicate during emergencies and critical community situations. Through a partnership with Franklin County Emergency Management & Homeland Security, we are transitioning from CodeRED to Everbridge – a modern emergency notification system designed to deliver faster, more reliable alerts when it matters most.

Everbridge will be used to share time-sensitive information related to severe weather, mosquito sprays, road closures, public safety incidents, hazardous conditions, and other emergencies.

What New Albany/Plain Township residents need to know:​

  • Registration takes about five minutes
  • You can choose how you receive alerts: call, text, and/or email
  • You can set your preferred contact order
  • While previous CodeRED subscribers should receive an alert notifying them of the change, they should consider registering again through the Everbridge Member Portal. This action will ensure that contact methods, message preferences, and alert subscriptions remain relevant to returning subscribers.
