 ROBO-CALL
SYSTEM FOR KIRKWOOD: The City of Kirkwood wants you to be informed in the event
of an emergency or an urgent situation that might threaten your
home or business. This new emergency notification system,
called 3n (for National Notification Network), allows the City
to notify you by phone in the event of an emergency. Several
local school districts and municipalities in the St. Louis
region already utilize a similar system, so you may already be
familiar with it. Names and phone numbers are retrieved from
The White Pages. If your phone number is “listed,” you are
automatically enrolled in the program, and you will
receive emergency notifications by phone. If not,
you can register here.
OTHER
REGISTRATION OPTIONS:
If you would prefer to receive your notifications on your cell
phone, on another phone line, or by email, you can
make that change here. You can also choose to “opt
out,”
or un-enroll, from the program completely. All
information you provide is confidential.
