The City of Burien has joined the enhanced regional emergency alert system, ALERT King County.
This powerful system enables the public to receive important
information about significant events or emergency situations. The
service is free and confidential and allows you to register home and
work addresses for geographic-specific alerts sent to you by phone,
text, and email.
Once registered, you can edit your information as needed. Click the Modify button below and then click login in the upper right corner of that page. The system accepts multiple email accounts, phone numbers, and physical addresses. You can unsubscribe at any time.
How Does it Work?
Burien
residents will only receive alerts targeted at them, based on the
address they provide. The system will only be used by the City for major
emergencies (make sure to uncheck the "General Notifications" box).
About ALERT King County
ALERT King County was
officially launched by King County Office of Emergency Management in
June 2016. This new public alert system complements, but does not
replace, other existing public notification systems, such as Flood
Alerts, Road Alerts, and Metro Transit Alerts.
See www.kingcounty.gov/ALERTKingCounty for more information about other types of alerts in the county.
