The city is launching a mass notification system to deliver emergency messages to people across Windsor.
Residents can sign-up for 'Windsor Alerts' to receive alerts in the event of an emergency.
Windsor Mayor Drew Dilkens told AM800's The Morning Drive that they've been working on developing the system since a tornado hit the city in August 2016.
"Certainly as cases ramp up with COVID-19 in our community and flooding starts to take more prominence in our community, we ask all residents to sign-up," he says.
Dilkens points out that the system has a really great feature.
"We can send targeted messages. So if we have to reach folks on the east-end of the city, we can tailor the message just to folks in the east-end, so we can get just neighbourhood messages out," he says.
Residents who wish to sign-up, must provide at least two ways to be contacted includes e-mail, cell phone or home phone.
