About HQE Systems-
In the event of severe weather, evacuations, utility outage, water main break, fire or flood, chemical spill, or other emergency situation, City of Eastland Emergency Services may activate the alert system to send emergency notifications to registered subscribers. We may also use the alerting system to communicate non-life safety matters, such as planned road closures, water main repairs, water service interruptions, etc. This is a very important service to keep you and your family informed in case of emergencies. Your information is only used for this system and is not given to anyone else for any other purpose.
