We want to ensure that our citizens are safe and well-informed! CivicReady is a mass notification system that Troup County utilizes in order to keep our community informed about critical and important events, not just weather. The communication service is available to our citizens to receive emergency notifications.
You have the ability to customize your notification preferences by signing up below. These notifications can be received through email, text and/or phone call according to your selections and based on the address location that you specify. The information you provide is confidential and will not be shared.
Troup County is able to send emergency alerts via text message, email, pager, or voice mail (in extreme cases), based on your preferences. It is important that we collect your contact information to do so.
The system is intended to be used for emergency alerts, as well as non-emergency incidents that may have significant impacts to residents. Emergency Alerts could be related to specific hazards that require some kind of action be taken such as evacuation, shelter in place, boil water orders, etc. Non-emergency alerts could include significant transportation problems with prolonged impacts or significant ongoing police or fire activity. This list is not meant to be all inclusive and this system will not be used for routine information. In addition to receiving information on your wireless device, you may also receive notification on your land telephone line (if you have one), depending on the type of incident or event.
These alerts are provided free of charge, but standard text messaging rates and other charges may apply.
If you wish to subscribe to SMS text messages only, text your zip code to 38276. There is also a mobile app available.
