EVACUATION ZONES

Authorities will use Zone Names in emergency alerts, media releases, and social media to notify

residents which areas are under an evacuation warning or order. It does not replace CodeRED or Nixle but supplements them.

Not every incident will require the use of Zonehaven, just as every incident does not call for an evacuation. In the event of an evacuation incident, knowing your zone could save time when minutes count.

Know Your Zone in 3 Easy Steps:

1. Visit community.zonehaven.com

2. Enter your address into the search bar

3. Find your zone in the pop-up window and write it down CodeRED FAQs: https://readynevadacounty.org/2713/Emergency-Alerts
