Bonney Lake Launches New Emergency Alert System
The City of Bonney Lake proudly announces the launch of Bonney Lake Alert, a new emergency alert system designed to efficiently deliver essential life safety information to residents. Community members can participate by opting in through the City’s website, where they can select their preferred alert method—text, phone, or email. Emergency Manager Raejean Kreel emphasizes the area's unique hazards, stating that the system enables tailored communication during critical situations. While the primary focus is on emergencies involving life safety, the system may also be utilized for specific non-emergency alerts, such as missing persons or traffic reroutes. The City encourages residents to register for the Pierce County Alert system for comprehensive emergency information coverage.
This initiative is part of a collaborative effort within the East Pierce Interlocal Coalition for Emergency Management, which includes multiple jurisdictions working to enhance disaster preparedness. For more information and to sign up, residents can visit the City’s website. This proactive measure reflects Bonney Lake's commitment to community safety and improved communication during emergencies.
