City of Auburn Emergency Management encourages residents and businesses in Auburn to register or re-register for the Auburn Alert emergency notification system, powered by CodeRed.

The system provides emergency information and community notifications directly to residents via phone, including TDD/TTY systems for the deaf and hard of hearing.

It has recently expanded to include notifications via e-mail, text message, and Twitter. You can follow the City of Auburn on Twitter @coaupdates.

While all land-line phones are automatically added to the system each year, residents with cell phones or Voice-Over-IP (VOIP) phones must manually enter their information into the system. To register, please visit www.auburnwa.gov and click on the Auburn Alert link or call 253-876-1925.

As part of the registration process, users can now see their location verified on a map and generate an immediate test call to confirm their information.

For more information contact City of Auburn Emergency Management at 253-876-1925 or visit our website at www.auburnwa.gov/disaster.
