Ionia County adopts Hyper Reach for public alerts

Ionia County Board of Commissioners · February 24, 2026

Summary

Ionia County approved an agreement to adopt Hyper Reach as its public alert system after Emergency Management Director Sgt. Rick Straubel recommended the platform. The board moved and carried the agreement at the Feb. 26 meeting.

The Ionia County Board of Commissioners voted to approve an agreement to adopt Hyper Reach as the county’s public alert system following a presentation from Emergency Management Director Sgt. Rick Straubel. Straubel recommended Hyper Reach as the preferred vendor and the board approved the agreement on a motion moved by County Commissioner Gordon Kelley.

"Motion to Approve Agreement with Hyper Reach Moved by Kelley Motion carried," the minutes record. The presentation covered options and funding for the system; the minutes do not specify contract value or funding sources, which were discussed but not recorded in dollar amounts. The agreement now moves forward for implementation under the county’s emergency-management operations.
