The safety of the community is a priority for Greenwood Village. Early warning signs help save lives and property. That is why Greenwood Village, in coordination with the Arapahoe County E911 Authority, is part of the Emergency Alert System called ArapAlert. ArapAlert, also called CodeRED, will allow the Greenwood Village Police Department along with other public safety agencies to make sure you know about emergencies and disasters before or as they happen.  Alerts may include natural disaster evacuations, hazardous materials contaminations, missing persons, terrorism preparedness, criminal activity, public health, and any other events that are deemed an emergency by the Greenwood Village Police Department. 

Landline Telephones Included

All landline telephone numbers and Comcast Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) numbers located in the boundaries of Greenwood Village are already included in the ArapAlert databases so residents and businesses will automatically get alerts through their landline telephones.  Residents and Businesses do not need to worry about adding landline phones to the notification system.

Add Your Cell Phone or Other Communication Device to Receive Alerts

You can also sign up to receive emergency alerts on any other communication devices such as cellular phones, email, pager, and fax. The messages will be delivered in the form of a voice mail, text message, instant message, fax, or email depending upon the settings you choose.   You can add additional numbers and locations to your profile, so consider adding your work address, your children's school address, frequent places of recreation, etc. so you can receive notifications related to incidents in that area.
