Swift 911™ is a computerized telephone calling system that can be used to notify you of an emergency situation such as a severe storm, water line break, evacuation need or some other dangerous condition.
Each resident and business within the Kent or Franklin Township (or a more narrowly defined area) can receive a message via telephone, cell phone, text, email or TDD/TTY phone with an emergency alert. The size of area covered will depend on the nature of the emergency.
Normally, the City of Kent Emergency Dispatch Center can activate or send an alert, or other trained city staff if the need is appropriate to their responsibilities.
To be sure you are listed, sign up for Swift 911 alerts by providing your contact information by mail or by visiting our Swift911™ page and registering online.
Simply provide your information by navigating to our Swift911™ page.
