Ready Fontana is the plan; county TENS is an alert path
Ready Fontana covers planning and training, while San Bernardino County's TENS registration adds cell, text, and VoIP contacts for targeted emergency messages.
Ready Fontana is the city’s preparation page for residents, workers, businesses, and visitors. It covers local hazards such as wildfire, earthquake, flood, and severe windstorm, then points to a kit, family plan, city guide, recovery information, and free CERT or LISTOS classes.
That page is for planning and training. San Bernardino County’s Telephone Emergency Notification System, or TENS, is one alert path. The county already uses a landline database, but a resident must register a cell number for text messages or add a VoIP number. People without internet access can register through 211.
TENS messages are targeted to affected areas rather than automatically sent across the whole county. During a major disaster, the message may carry critical instructions such as evacuation information. Keep the address and contact details current so the system can match the right place.
The useful setup is short: save Ready Fontana for the plan, register the phones people actually carry, and use current city or county emergency information during an incident. A class or checklist builds readiness, but it is not a live warning.
