Seconds Count in an Emergency - Make
Sure the Town Has Your Phone Number


The Town of Hillsborough has instituted CodeRED — a
high-speed, emergency notification service. Town officials
now can deliver pre-recorded emergency messages by telephone to targeted
areas or to the entire town in case of an emergency that requires immediate
action.
The system can handle up to 60,000 calls per
hour and delivers messages to a live person or to an
answering machine, making three attempts to connect to a phone number.
To add your phone number or an alternate phone number — including
cellular phone numbers — click
here or on the CodeRED image.
All businesses are encouraged to register their phone numbers. Residents
also should register if:
• They have unlisted phone numbers.
• They have changed their phone numbers or their addresses within
the last year.
• They use cellular phones as their primary home phones.
CodeRED is a geographical-based system that uses street addresses to
select which phone numbers will receive emergency notification calls.
No post office box numbers will be accepted.
This system only will be used for emergency purposes.
