City Enhances Emergency Alert System with Everbridge

The City of Manhattan Beach has enhanced our emergency communication platform and will begin to transition all emergency messaging from NIXLE to Everbridge. Everbridge is a regional integration notification platform with 14 cities in the South Bay that allows you to opt-in to receive notifications via phone calls, text messaging, e-mail, and more based on locations you care about. Locally, the new Everbridge system will be known as Alert Southbay. You can choose to receive notifications about events that may affect your home, workplace, family’s schools, and more.

If you are already receiving NIXLE alerts, you will continue to receive those alerts, however, you can update your profile and customize your alerts through Everbridge/Alert Southbay. Please take a moment and register for alerts by visiting the Everbridge/Alert Southbay website, or by texting AlertSB to 888777. You can also download the app from your app store by searching for AlertSB and create a profile.

NIXLE will eventually be phased out and the Everbridge/Alert Southbay system will be the City of Manhattan Beach's only emergency alert system. Remaining NiXLE users will be notified when the City will be discontinuing notifications.
