E-MAIL SUBSCRIPTIONS & ALERTS

Residents and property owners receive direct communications via email through our subscription service which is used to send out the monthly Village’s Voice e-newsletter, a quarterly Message from the Mayor, and announcements.

The Village also uses the CodeRED notification system to send alerts via text/email/phone for emergency alerts, updates about special events (tropical storms, hurricanes), and water and sewer service notices.

In addition to our email and CodeRED notification system, the Village has a new communication method called “TextMyGov”. Islanders can sign up to receive text notifications on non-emergency information that the Village needs to get out such as road closings, weather delays/closings, trash service updates, events, etc.
