To further strengthen communications with the public during emergency situations, the City of Menifee has launched two new emergency management platforms, Alert Menifee and Genasys Protect.
Alert Menifee (notifications) will be used to communicate public safety topics including severe weather, evacuations, road closures, etc. All residents are encouraged to sign up for alerts and can click here to sign up. During the registration process, users will be able to choose the types of alerts they want to receive and how to receive them, including landline phone, cell phone, text/SMS message, and email. Users will also have the ability to customize the order they wish to receive alerts. The information entered into the system is for communicating emergency and official city information only – neither the City of Menifee nor Genasys will share or sell personal information.
Genasys Protect (viewing evacuation zones) is an interactive map and can be viewed by clicking here. Residents can look up their pre-determined evacuation zone using the search bar in the top left, and will be able to view live zone statuses, road closures, and evacuation points during an emergency. All residents are encouraged to look up important addresses and record the zone IDs in an easily visible place such as on the fridge or by the door.
For more information and to sign up for alerts, please visit www.cityofmenifee.us/alertmenifee.
