Local emergencies in the R.M. of Dauphin can now quickly be dispatched to rate payers.
Alerts about local issues like fire bans, road closures and water breaks are dispatched to a phone, in an email or text from All-Net Connect.
Robin Wiebe, CAO for the R.M. of Dauphin, explains how this is tied to the GIS mapping system to limit messages to a specific area.
“This system is also connected to our GIS mapping system, so just because something like an emergency happens in one place like a localized flooding, we don’t actually bother necessarily everybody in the municipality with that message. We have it connected to the GIS mapping systems, so we’re actually able to limit the messages to an area we map out.
All-Net Connect is free, and you can sign up at rmofdauphin.ca or call the municipal office at 638-4531.
