Storm Safe Place Registry

The Storm Safe Place Registry is a program initiated by the Keystone Neighborhood Watch. The purpose of the Storm Safe Place Registry is to assist emergency agencies in providing aid to victims of severe weather. The registry will be a valuable tool for emergency agencies in locating and assisting residents that may have been trapped in their Safe Place by tornado debris.

The registry consists of a list of storm safe places and valuable information for each location such as contact information, shelter address, shelter type, and where on the property the shelter is located. The shelter addresses will be used to map all storm safe place locations. In the event of a natural disaster, address lists and address maps of affected areas can be distributed to emergency responders so that those in need of assistance can be quickly located. Your storm shelter information will not be shared or distributed for any reason other than to aid emergency responders.  The only exception will be if you check the box indicating you would like to notify your neighbors that they are welcome in your shelter during a storm.

You do not need to be a member of Keystone Neighborhood Watch in order to register your Storm Safe Place.  However, we encourage you to consider becoming a member in order to receive information on changing conditions within our community.  If interested in signing up for membership, please fill out the Membership Form.  Membership is free.
