The Arroyo Grande Police Department has partnered with Nixle to implement its Community Notification System to alert residents in real-time for localized emergency situations, relevant community messages and media releases.
As a resident, there are several simple ways to register:
1. Text your ZIPCODE to 888777 from your mobile phone OR
2. Go to www.arroyogrande.org/123 and click on the Nixle Button
Once registered, residents will receive a confirmation text to their mobile device. Residents may also customize their alert settings by going to www.nixle.com and creating a User Profile.
The service is secure, reliable and easy to use. Added features include English/Spanish translation, an anonymous tip communication tool and messages can be sent out through the City's Twitter and Facebook platforms.
All Alerts, Community Messages and Media Releases will be targeted geographically, allowing residents to receive localized, relevant alerts from the Arroyo Grande Police Department. Nixle Alerts can be sent via Text, Email, Web, Social Media, and the Nixle Mobile App in an instant. Nixle is partnered with NLETS for unmatched data security, as well as the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, the National Blue Alert Network, and Google for unmatched reach and two-way information exchange.
We are very excited to have you experience it for yourself!
