City to begin using Nixle to Get Timely Information to Residents

Beginning next week, Salem area residents are invited to subscribe to a new community information service that delivers important and timely information directly to area residents using the latest technology.

 

This service, Nixle, delivers trustworthy and important neighborhood-level public safety and community event notifications instantly to users by cell phone text message, email, and web. There is NO Spam or Advertising.
