Scott Township’s New Notifications System

Featured

It’s taken a while to make the change but it’s here! Scott Township has moved away from our old notification system, opting for an updated platform. Our notifications will work for emergency alerts, missing pets, snow alerts, construction updates, and more. You control what you sign up for. All powered by Scotti, our new AI assistant, and CitiBot.

If you received a text message this evening (7/15/25) asking about enrollment, you were already in the old system and the new one was reaching out to ensure you are interested in receiving such alerts. Enrollment is required, as we need your permission to enroll you in the new system. So if you received the text that was valid from us.

If you did not receive the text or if you deleted it without responding, you can enroll very easily by texting HELLO to 1-877-384-0411. Once you send that text, the system will send you a link to sign up your number and choose what kinds of alerts you want to receive

You can also enroll your mobile phone online if you choose. To do so Click here to enroll in Scotti Notify!

Thank you and welcome to Scotti and CitiBot!
