IMPORTANT INFORMATION!

Montezuma County has launched a new Emergency Alert System. This new system will allow you to receive emergency alerts for severe weather, road closures, evacuations, missing persons, and dangerous situations.

This is a more reliable and accurate system, which allows us to tailor alerts to specific neighborhoods or groups of people who face an imminent threat rather than a notification to the entire county.

This is an "opt-in" system. You choose what kinds of messages that you want to receive, as well as how and when you receive them.

When you sign up, you will have the option to receive alerts via cell phone call, text message, email, or all of the above. You subscribe to the notifications you want to receive based on your location.

Current NIXLE subscribers MUST opt into this system, or you will no longer receive any messages.

The information you provide is protected and will not be used for any other purpose.

Download the Everbridge app or follow this link to sign up. https://member.everbridge.net/index/337829242601830

Signing up is simple but if you need assistance, please call 970-564-4998.

Do not call dispatch for help signing up for the new Montezuma County Emergency Alert System. Step-by-step instructions can be found on the county website at www.montezumacounty.org.
