Check to see if you are on the new CruzAware list for emergency alerts!

Because this is new, there have been glitches in the system. Here are some of the problems they’ve had:

  • If folks ONLY had a landline and no cell phone or email on their CodeRed account there hasn’t been a way for the NEW system to send a temporary password. IF this is happening for folks (they are getting a message that says their number is already part of an account), have them email cruzaware@santacruzcounty.us and we can set up a temporary password.

  • Voter Registration info was added to CruzAware which greatly increased the number of people enrolled. When voter info and Code Red info were combined, the de-duping process may have resulted in lost information, or obsolete phone #s or emails being put into CruzAware.

There hasn’t been a lot of publicity, at least up here in the mountains, about CruzAware.
