The Polk County Sheriff’s Office has partnered with Honeywell Business Solutions to bring to the county a reliable and fast way to distribute information to its residents. The public will be able to access the site online and sign up to receive all alerts issued such as: severe weather, severe weather monthly tests and other special announcements.

Polk County Emergency Management and the Sheriff’s Office will be planning several town meetings to assist the public in the sign up process.
“We will be setting up the dates for these town meetings for the near future and also plan to send information to the Lakes Association and the camp grounds for those campers who live outside of Polk County," explained Nancy Shafer, Polk County Emergency Management deputy director. “We are very excited about this new product. We believe this will be a very valuable tool for our office to use to get important information to the public in an emergency.”
Stop by the Polk County Sheriff’s Office booth at the Polk County Fair this week for more information.
