What is Alerts powered by Smart911?
Alerts powered by Smart911 is North Andover’s official emergency alert and notification system. This system is used to send alerts to the public during emergencies. Alerts powered by Smart911 is a free service that allows you to sign up online to receive customized alerts via text message, email, and voice message.

How does Smart911 work?
Smart911 allows citizens to provide the additional details that 9-1-1 call takers may need in order to assist them during an emergency. When you dial 9-1-1 today, the information received by the 9-1-1 call center can be limited based on the type of phone you are using. With Smart911, anytime you make an emergency call from a phone registered with your Safety Profile, the 9-1-1 systems recognize your phone number and automatically display your profile on the screen of the call taker who receives your call.

Who let the dogs out?! Animal Control and @NoAndoverPolice posted that they have picked up 13 dogs since May 2nd of this year. Make sure your dog’s license is up-to-date to help you get reunited with your dog faster if they get out.

Sarah Brush
Do you have a new puppy at home, or maybe you just moved to town?  Make sure you obtain a license for your dog (once the dog turns 6 months old) by either visiting the Town Clerks office or requesting one by mail.  You must also bring or send in a CURRENT RABIES VACCINATION RECORD.  Dog licenses must be renewed annually.
What is needed to obtain a new license?
• An updated Rabies Vaccination Certificate
• Cash or check for $20.00 (please do not mail cash)*
• A completed dog license application
*Dog license fees can also be paid online.
