Important Emergency Siren Notice - 11/15/2024
The City of Deer Park is changing the sound of the emergency siren system. The new siren wail will be a steady tone, but may sound like it is changing slightly in pitch due to the siren speaker head spinning during activation. This change is being made to assist more citizens with hearing the sirens during emergencies.

Reminders about the siren system:
The sirens have a mounted red light on top to alert the Deaf community to an activation.
SIRENS ALWAYS MEAN SHELTER IN PLACE. They may be activated for a chemical release or for a tornado, but they are always activated to instruct the community to shelter in place.
THE SIRENS ONLY BROADCAST A SIREN WAIL. Recorded voice messages will not go out over the siren system. Do not exit structures to listen to the siren system as this is goes against the recommendation to shelter in place.
The City of Deer Park has transitioned to a new emergency notification system. We're moving our communications to Everbridge to improve our safety response in the event of an incident. We encourage everyone to sign up to receive the latest emergency information directly to your phone, email, or via text. You can sign up online by clicking the link (http://bit.ly/4gaxWpt) or by simply texting 77536 to 888777.
Please note: If you were previously registered with CodeRED, you do not need to re-register for Everbridge. We have transferred the contacts from our old system into the new system for your convenience.
