Mass Notification System

The Ketchikan Gateway Borough and the City of Ketchikan are currently transitioning from Nixle to Everbridge, a more advanced emergency notification system designed to keep our community informed and safe.

Everbridge allows us to send critical alerts by phone, text message, and email, ensuring you receive important information wherever you are. Notifications may include severe weather warnings, natural disasters, public safety updates, road closures, or other urgent community information.

During this transition period, some alerts may still be issued through Nixle until the full move to Everbridge is complete. We encourage all residents to sign up for Everbridge now to ensure you continue receiving timely and reliable emergency messages.
