LeboALERT Launches This Week
The community has launched LeboALERT, a free service that automatically will notify residents of emergencies within minutes. The system also can provide information about municipal programs, services and events to those who choose to receive non-emergency alerts.
During an emergency situation, residents will receive short pre-recorded messages on their main telephones describing the nature of the event, telling them what precautions to take and letting them know where to go for more information. Emergency alerts will be sent about anything that has the potential to be dangerous -- gas leaks, serious weather conditions, hazardous materials spills or urgent crime issues.
Residents and nonresidents may sign up to receive short non-emergency messages about special events, cancellations, public documents, job openings, planned utility work, volunteer opportunities and other matters. They may choose to be notified by e-mail, text message, pager or, in some cases, phone, and may change their options as often as they wish.

Accelerated communications are a good public safety enhancement. I think the school district's automated messaging has been good as well. However, "a free service"?
Why can't we just say: "Another outstanding service brought to you by your hard earned tax dollars."
We like our services, but they are not free.
