DeSoto Red Alert

Documentstay safe
DeSoto Red Alert is the Mass Notification System that the City of DeSoto uses to send emergency and non-emergency alerts to residents and businesses. Residents have the power to choose exactly the type of notifications and how they receive them.

Choose to receive alerts via a text message, phone call, and/or email. Choose to receive alerts about specific bad weather conditions expected in the area direct from the National Weather Service, city emergencies such as water boil notices, police department emergencies such as major accidents with lane closures or missing persons, and non-emergency city updates about events or public meetings. Registering in this system allows you to stay as informed as possible. This is especially essential in emergency situations.

Code Red System: Residents or business who signed up for the City’s previous Code Red emergency notification system have been added to this Everbridge system. Their alert subscriptions for Tornado Warnings, Severe Thunderstorm Warning, and Flash Flood Warnings have been added to the system and they will continue to receive those alerts from the National Weather Service. If you would like to add additional alert subscriptions for weather or from the City, you can register for a new Everbridge account. The system will only send you each alert once per identified contact type. If you would like your information removed from the system, email RegionalEM@duncanville.com
