Local emergency information available through Nixle.com

The Franklin County Emergency Management office provides emergency alerts over the internet and directly to cell phones.

The EOC works with a company called nixle.com which allows it to provide emergency information over the web, e-mail and directly to other subscribers’ cell phones.

The EOC is urging Franklin County residents to register with the site to receive public safety threat information and information on Emergency Management activities.

Registration is free and only takes a few minutes.

All they need is your e-mail address and cell phone number as well as your street address and they’ll make sure you get any emergency information for your area.

You can even sign up for addresses in other areas and keep up with emergency information for sites around Florida or around the country.

The website again is www.nixle.com.
