Emergency Services

Emergency Services enhance the quality of life and public safety of KPB residents through fire protection, emergency medical response and search and rescue.

KPB Alerts 

The KPB was the first local government in the State of Alaska to offer a Community Alert Network (CAN), which was a computerized phone system to warn residents of important information.  With newer mobility technology, this system has been replaced with the KPB Alerts system. Residents should register their cell phone to associate it with a location for receiving local emergency notifications released by the Office of Emergency Management.

KPB's Office of Emergency Management (OEM) develops and distributes emergency preparedness information to the public, informing them how to prepare for emergencies and the suitable actions that should be followed after emergency situations.
