JOIN THE BLOCK CAPTAIN PROGRAM
FOR A COMMUNITY SOCIAL &
EDUCATIONAL EVENT ON AUGUST 27TH
A 2019 community survey expressed concerns for city notifications and
communication with residents in the event of emergencies. In response, the City
Council prioritized communications with residents as a part of the city’s 2020 and 2022
strategic goals and priorities.
In 2021, the City Council commissioned an Emergency Information System (EIS) – a
database of resident information - to be built for Rolling Hills. The EIS is accessible on
the city’s website at: https://www.rolling-hills.org/residents/portal/index.php.
To register, please use the drop-down menu and find your address. The data
collected via EIS will be imported to the city’s systems of notification.
Presently, the city has two systems for notification:
E-NOTIFY SOUTH BAY ALERT
What: City Alerts & General news or
Council/Commission Agenda
Information
What: Regional Alert and
Warning Notification System
Why: To stay up-to -date on city info Why: For Emergency Alerts
https://www.rolling-
hills.org/enotify/index.php https://alertsouthbay.com/register
Notification platforms are only effective when registration is robust and contains the
most current contact information. With the help of the Block Captains, resident data
will be continuously updated in the EIS so that the two notification platforms will
always have the latest and greatest resident information. Register yourself and your
family members today! Residents can also call City Hall at 310 377-1521 or come in-
person for staff assistance with registration.
Any questions regarding the EIS, contact Christian Horvath or Katie Watts at
chorvath@cityofrh.net and kwatts@cityofrh.net or call 310-377 -1521.
