Emergency Alerts

Sign Up for CodeRED Emergency Alerts!

On October 1, 2024, Sauk County Emergency Management sent a message to current subscribers of NIXLE to register for CodeRED. Recent challenges in emergency messaging and lack of effective 24/7 support required a change to a different platform. Use of NIXLE for community messages reduced the effectiveness for emergency communication. The original intent of these systems like NIXLE and CodeRED was for emergency messages. Future CodeRED messages will be priority-based related to personal safety.

Please REGISTER for CodeRED as a new user, visit the link:
