Supervisor Susan Gorin’s office had received requests about alerts, maps and emergency info, so the D1 team put together the following list of resources.
Note that all of these will be updated or are not time-dependent—you can save this message and refer to it again and again.
Also note that only those who live in current Mandatory Evacuation zones or those under Evacuation Warning are receiving Nixles and SoCo Alerts.
