Residents who opt in for Redland City Council’s emergency notification messaging service will now also receive an alert if there is a planned hazard reduction burn on Council land in their area.

Redlands Coast Alerts subscribers who opt in for community alerts will receive targeted planned burn alerts using the subscriber’s set location, based on the burn location and prevailing winds.

Subscribers already receive Council messaging on local disasters, and flood warnings for four local roads, via SMS and email. They also are supplied Bureau of Meteorology warnings and alerts via email.

The purpose of a planned burn is to reduce the volume of forest litter fuel, which will assist with hazard reduction – reducing the fire danger and providing conditions essential for native regeneration.

Redland City Mayor Jos Mitchell said residents who have already opted-in through Redlands Coast Alerts will not need to opt-in again to receive the planned burn notifications.

The Mayor said it was a good time for subscribers to log-in and double-check their address is correct.

“Our Redlands Coast community have been asking for the ability to receive planned burn notifications from Council, and this is a great addition to Redlands Coast Alerts,” she said.

To register for Redlands Coast Alerts, go to Council’s Redlands Coast Disaster Dashboard at disaster.redland.qld.gov.au and follow the prompts under the Redlands Coast Alerts tab.

Redland City Council provides a suite of services to 166,873 residents and more than 63,000 residential households across Redlands Coast. Our naturally wonderful city on Quandamooka Country is home to more than 335 kilometres of coastline, six island communities and 12 mainland suburbs. Council’s planned burns program is funded through the Environment and Coastal Management Levy.
