On Monday, May 8th, 2023, and in conjunction with Emergency Preparedness Week, the Township of South Stormont announced the launch of a new platform to reach residents in the event of emergency situations.

Voyent Alert is a multi-purpose service provided by the Township that will keep residents informed of critical events like floods or boil water advisories as well as day-to-day/ non-emergency notices such as road closures, planned maintenance, watermain breaks and more.

Residents can sign up in under one minute and it is completely free and anonymous. There are four convenient options for receiving alerts. Download the app on an Apple or Android device, or sign up to receive notifications via text message, email, or voice call. 

“We are excited to provide this added service to our residents,” says Mayor Bryan McGillis. “We do our best to reach the residents of South Stormont effectively and efficiently, but we understand we can always improve. Voyent Alert will allow residents who may not utilize social media regularly to receive important notifications from the Township directly.”

Residents will be able to add multiple locations to their profiles for their home, work or family member’s addresses and will only receive notifications that affect those locations. With these targeted alerts, users won’t have to worry about sifting through information that doesn’t pertain to them.

Residents can register themselves online from the Township of South Stormont website at www.southstormont.ca/VoyentAlert. Alternatively, residents can visit or call the Township Office to submit their information to be registered on their behalf.
