Paulding County E911

Several years ago Paulding County explored multiple options for severe weather notifications. We looked at tornado sirens as well as automated notification systems and weighed the advantages and disadvantages of each. Paulding County EMA in cooperation with Paulding County E911 elected to use Emergency Communications Network's CodeRED Weather Warning and Emergency Notification System for severe weather warnings as well as for "reverse" 911 notifications. This system is provided by the Board of Commissioners for citizens who reside or own a business within Paulding County. CodeRED Weath

I would be more than happy to address your question. The earlier post is correct. If you will call the non-emergency number, 770-445-2117, during non-peak hours which are generally after 2:00 am and before 10:00 am, a supervisor can approve a test call depending on staffing and current call volume. While we don't encourage testing of telephone lines, we recognize there are situations that warrant such testing. We don't accept 911 test calls from a cellular telephone to determine routing because of the way cellular 911 calls are routed. Cellular 911 calls may not connect to the 911 Center
