The Town of Fort Mill is pleased to announce the launch of a new emergency alert and mass notification system designed to help residents stay safe, informed and connected. 

Through this new system, community members can sign up to receive real-time updates on a wide range of topics — including boil water advisories, severe weather alerts, Town Council meeting reminders and Town event updates. 

Powered by CivicPlus, the current host of the Town’s website, the system seamlessly integrates existing alert subscribers while allowing for unlimited new sign-ups. This enhanced platform will enable the Town to quickly share important information about hazardous conditions, utility notices such as power or water outages and other urgent updates. 

Residents can also personalize their experience by selecting which types of alerts they wish to receive and how they’d like to receive them — whether by phone call, text message, email or through the CivicReady app. 

To register, visit the Mass Notification Dashboard at https://public.alertsense.com/SignUp/?regionid=2328. Complete the sign-up form, confirm your email and customize your alert preferences to begin receiving notifications.

“Keeping our residents informed is one of the most important parts of keeping them safe,” said Fort Mill Town Manager Cary Vargo. “This new system gives our community another reliable way to receive critical information quickly, whether it’s an emergency situation or an important Town update.” 

Please note, if you've previously created an account on the Town's CivicPlus website and currently receive some alerts, you already have access to the mass notification Dashboard. Just visit www.fortmillsc.gov and click "Website Sign In" in the top right corner. Enter your email and password and then you can customize your alert settings on the Dashboard page.
