What is Reverse 911?
The Community Telephone Emergency Notification System, called Reverse 911, is designed to provide a geographically selected group of phone numbers, automatically call each number, and play a pre-corded message giving emergency instructions to whomever receives the message.
The system program uses the existing E911 database when contacting residents. Phone numbers for this database are automatically updated weekly through local phone company providers. If a resident or business moves or changes a phone number, this information will be provided to the City within 10 days. Numbers supplied by the phone company should include unlisted numbers and "Do Not Call" numbers. However, these phone numbers do not include cellular phone listings.
Residents or businesses using cellular services and that wish to be notified in an emergency, must provide their information to the Fire Department. Additionally, a person or business that does not wish to be included in the Community Notification System may request that their number be removed from the database.
If you wish to submit a written request, please complete the Reverse 911 Authorization form and mail/drop off at City Hall, Oberlin Police or Oberlin Fire stations.
