Emergency E-mail Notification System
At the direction of the First Selectman, the Information Technology Department and the Office of Emergency Management have developed an Emergency E-mail Notification System to increase the Town's ability to contact the residents of Greenwich. Those residents who wish to receive either emergency notifications or important information from the Town need only to provide an e-mail address through the Emergency Preparedness section of the Town's website. The website provides directions to facilitate the entry of the e-mail address. The only information required would be the e-mail address and a password.

Selectman Lash has indicated that this is a first step in a continuing effort to provide important and/or emergency information to the residents.
In addition to this e-mail system, the Town has established an Emergency Info Line, which provides access to important and/or emergency information by simply dialing the following number: 1-866-245-4260. Both of these systems will be used to provide important information, such as the initiation of a snow emergency, issuing storm warnings, and emergency preparedness directions for an impending storm or an emergency event.
In the near future, the Town expects to increase its capability to communicate directly to the residents by acquiring an Emergency Notification System that will use your existing home phone, cell phone and e-mail to send emergency messages to all residents or to a specific geographic area.
The Town anticipates approval of a grant submitted to the Federal Homeland Security Agency, which includes funds for this Emergency Notification System.
