Recent severe weather highlighted the need for all residents to be signed up for Bent Tree communications.  Great time and effort are expended to keep residents updated with vital information to be prepared for and make it through major weather incidents.  Please continue reading to find out details about the various communications platforms used by Public Safety to keep residents informed.  Public Safety encourages all residents to share this information with others who may not be aware.

Email Alerts – This is the primary method of communication with Bent Tree residents. Email alerts cover any information of significance to our community, including the Friday News. EVERYONE should be signed up for these alerts.  Email your name, address, and contact information to Michael Koorey at [email protected] if you are not receiving these.
 
Bent Tree Public Safety Facebook Page – Public Safety makes a great effort to include all information contained in our email alerts on this page.  Alerts from Admin or other departments are not generally posted here.  We recommend all residents search Facebook for Bent Tree Public Safety and follow us.

Bent Tree Infoline – The BT Infoline can be reached at 770-893-2999.  This line includes prerecorded messages that are kept current during events or incidents with major community impact.  The Infoline does not always reflect the information relayed in email alerts.  However, during major weather events in particular, Public Safety will keep the Infoline updated in case residents are experiencing an internet outage.  Please call this line to find out about road closures or spillway status instead of the front gate.  Public Safety recommends checking the BT Infoline frequently during major weather incidents.

Text Alerts – Our text alert system is generally used to deliver high priority messages during major community events or incidents.  Messages will often direct residents to other platforms, such as the BT Infoline.  There are certain limitations with text alerts, so they are not used often.  Email your name, address, and contact information to Michael Koorey at [email protected] if you would like to receive Bent Tree text alerts or believe you are not receiving them.
