The "CodeRED system" is a geographical based notification system, which means street addresses are needed to select which phone numbers will receive emergency notification calls in any given situation. The system works fine for cell phones too, but we have to have a street address". People who have recently moved but kept the same listed or unlisted phone number also need to change their address in the database.

There is public internet access at the library and free Wi-Fi in the parks. Those without Internet access may call the Neosho County Emergency Management Office (620-244-3874), Monday through Friday, (8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m.) to give their information over the phone. Required information includes first and last name, street address (physical address, no P.O. boxes), city, state, zip code, and primary phone number, additional phone numbers (optional).
