Emergency Notifications

The City of Brighton will attempt to warn you and inform you about some emergencies. There are several ways to receive important emergency information.

  • You should not rely on one notification method in all situations. 
  • You should learn the available systems and plan to use and access several for emergency and disaster alerts.
  • Please remember that it is your responsibility to know and understand the hazards in your immediate area and know how to respond in order to stay safe. It takes everyone's participation in building a resilient Brighton community.

Receive Notification through CodeRed

  • The City of Brighton is using CodeRED, a high-speed notification system, to keep you safe in the event of an emergency. 
  • The system allows us to deliver emergency messages to you via phone call to your home phone or mobile device and through text and email, based on your preferences. 
  • Signing up for CodeRED alerts is free to residents who live and work in Adams County.

NOAA Weather Radio

  • A National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Weather Radio is a dedicated radio that receives real-time weather information direct from the National Weather Service. 
  • During severe weather, more frequent updates, and live broadcasts are used to notify listeners of potential hail, flooding, tornadoes, blizzard conditions, and other weather warnings. 
  • NOAA Weather Radios can be purchased at many electronic stores, and can be battery operated, giving you an option to receive information when your power is out.


Local Media

  • Our city’s public information officers coordinate closely with local media outlets to provide accurate, up-to-date information to our citizens. 
  • Information about weather watches and warnings and public safety updates are provided to our local media outlets to share with citizens.

Outdoor warning sirens were retired in August 2024.
