The Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Reverse 911® system is an automated community notification tool designed to enhance preparedness and facilitate urgent and necessary outbound communications to citizens during emergent events. One of its capabilities is to manually add a phone number to an address that does not already have an existing land-line, in order to communicate an emergency notification to the affected area.
Our Reverse 911® system is not able to allow a single number to be associated with more than one address in our county-wide database. If you wish to add phone information to our database, please fill below. Participation is voluntary, and your number will not be shared for any other purpose.
No single system or technology is perfect- Completion of this form cannot guarantee that you will receive timely notification in the event of a large scale community emergency, due to the unforeseen problems that such an emergency could create. Should such a situation arrive, it is important that you also continue to monitor other public safety warning systems whenever possible. It is important that you avoid calling 9-1-1 unnecessarily. Whenever possible, an alternate phone number or instructions will be provided for any questions. By filling out this form, you agree to these terms and conditions.
There is no need to fill out this form if you already have a "land-line" phone service provided by Verizon, unless you live in a very rural location. (PO Boxes will not work for Reverse 911 service)
