AC Alert System Changes

– Alameda County is making important changes to the AC Alert System –

Many Piedmont residents have elected to receive notifications from AC Alert System.

Please be aware that beginning April 15th, AC Alert will no longer use text messaging or voice calls to distribute non-emergency messages such as red flag warning, community event information or traffic alerts. All non-emergency notifications will be sent via email and the Everbridge app only. The change does not apply to alerts sent out in an emergency, such as orders to evacuate or shelter in place. Emergency alerts will continue to be sent via all available paths.

To ensure you continue receiving non-emergency notifications from the City of Piedmont and Alameda County, go to www.acalert.org and confirm you have at least one email address included in your profile.
.
You should also download and install the Everbridge app on your mobile device, then search for Alameda County to log into your account. Make sure that you have subscribed to the City of Piedmont.
