Scottsdale launches RAVE Alert System for emergency notifications
(Arianna Grainey/Independent Newsmedia)
The Scottsdale Police Department is launching the RAVE Alert System to provide residents and visitors information during large scale events and emergency situations.

Scottsdale residents and visitors now have a new and timely tool to remain informed during large scale events and emergency situations.
The RAVE Alert System, a free service managed by the Scottsdale Police Department, delivers urgent alerts during incidents such as severe weather, public safety concerns, evacuations, missing persons, and special events.
Scottsdale will launch the system during the week of Feb. 3, during the WM Phoenix Open – attendees can subscribe to updates specific to the event – just text GOLF25 to 67283.
While that is a specific special event use, the city encourages all residents to register for emergency alerts. The system allows users to receive customizable community notifications, including updates on weather, safety, and utility issues. Alerts are sent via text, email, or voice message and can be tailored to individual preferences.
The system is part of a statewide initiative to enhance public safety through modernized emergency communication.
To sign up for general Scottsdale alerts, visit the Arizona Department of Administration’s 9-1-1 Program page: az911.gov/rave-citizen-info-registration. View step-by-step registration instructions.
