NEW CANAAN, CT — The town of New Canaan has expanded its communications outreach beyond emergency notifications to include the first selectman's newsletter, as well as information about road closures, tree work, police activity, fire prevention, community center programming, local health issues and more.

According to a news release provided by the town, every local resident and businessperson, whether they have been receiving notices from the town or not, is urged to visit newcanaan.info/alerts, register their contact information and select the topics of information they would like to receive from the town.

Residents can choose to receive alerts by email or text. Phone calls are used only during true emergencies and disasters, according to the town.

When a resident registers with their selections, they will be asked to provide their street address, as some notifications such as road closures and other public works activity can be targeted to only the affected geographic areas.
