The service is called Nixle and anyone is welcome to register for an account to receive brief messages via email or cellular phone text about matters concerning the police department. Register here: http://local.nixle.com/alert/314306/.
The benefit of Nixle over other messaging services is that account holders can select the type of news they want to receive, from everything such as community events and programs sponsored by the police department or just breaking news, such as an urgent public safety alert.
For more information, contact Sgt. L.J. Millard at (941) 932-9300 or lj.millard@cityofbradenton.com.
