The City of Ann Arbor uses Washtenaw County's Emergency Notification System, powered by Everbridge, to make sure you know about issues that may affect your safety. This system allows the City of Ann Arbor and Washtenaw County to contact thousands of residents and businesses quickly via phone, email, or text.
Alerts will be sent via phone number 734.794.6060 with a caller ID of "Ann Arbor Alert." Please save this phone number in your contacts when registering! Text alerts will be sent from 88911.
How to Register?
To register, visit www.washtenaw.org/alerts and create a new Everbridge account. This system is not linked to the city's previous notification system, CodeRED, so users must register a new account. Because this system is nationwide, you may need to create a unique user name if the one you commonly use is taken, such as your first initial and last name. You will then enter your email, address, and contact information to create an account. We recommend signing up for Washtenaw County and City of Ann Arbor notifications.
The City of Ann Arbor respects your privacy and will never share or distribute your personal information, unless required to do so by law. Additionally, we will never use your information for any purpose other than to send emergency notifications or important information pertaining to Ann Arbor.
