Everbridge is the company that owns Nixle, which the City of Linden uses to push critical alerts to Linden residents. Everbridge is deprecating the current legacy Nixle system in use, which means that residents will need to sign up to receive general and emergency notifications through Everbridge.
The new system includes enhanced features and customization, enabling residents to receive the messages they want and ignore the ones that are not relevant. It also allows residents to choose to receive information via text, email, push notifications, or all of the above!
Unfortunately, everyone will need to register for an Everbridge account, even if you are currently receiving Nixle alerts. The transition is expected to be completed on or about June 1, 2025, but there is no need to worry; all users will still receive Nixle alerts throughout the transition period.
Here’s what you’ll need to do:
