JACKRABBIT ROAD PUBLIC UTILITY DISTRICT

Jackrabbit Road PUD (the District), your water and sewer provider, has implemented a digital notification system to inform residents quickly of an emergency or otherwise significant situation related to water, sewer, drainage, or other District service.

Over the past few years, there have been several major events in which the District residents needed to be informed and/or updated as to the situation, most notably the flooding from Hurricane Harvey and damage from the Blizzard of ‘21 (Uri), both of which resulted in reduced services within the District.

In both events, there were a multitude of questions and concerns from residents that had no source of reliable information. Social media was overrun with large amounts of false/misleading information and incorrect advice.

The digital notification will be sent from (720) 669-0575 and will identify itself as being sent on behalf of the District, (JRRPUD). The notification will be written by the District Operator, the District Engineer, or a designated District board member.  In an emergency, these are the people that will be aware of the current situation and have the latest and most reliable information available.

What will notifications look like?

Residents registered for this free service (*) will receive a text message notification explaining the basics of the situation and if applicable, any action to be taken. In some instances, the notification may also contain a link to a website with more detailed information.

When will the notification system be used?

District residents may receive a notification to inform them of situations affecting their service, such as emergency water shutoffs for repair, low water pressure, boil water notices, flood, or extreme freeze warnings, etc.

Who will receive notifications?

District residents will only receive notifications that apply to their District services.
