Santa Cruz County has an
Emergency Notification System which
is used to send important messages to residents and businesses within Santa Cruz County. The system has the capability of sending thousands of messages in a very short time based on geographic location of the incident for things like:
Emergency evacuation notice
Be-on-the-lookout notices for dangerous criminals in our area
Requests for community assistance in locating
missing people
Our land lines are already
in their computer, but you can add your
cell phone if you want to be notified when you're not at home. Here's the link if you want to sign up: Recent Earthquake Info - Recent Earthquake Info Map When you feel a quake you
