Nobles County to switch emergency notifications from CodeRED to Regroup
Summary
Following a November 10, 2025 platform compromise that removed CodeRED's IPAWS certification, commissioners approved terminating the CodeRED contract and transitioning to the Regroup Emergency Notification System to restore IPAWS-capable emergency messaging and preserve grant eligibility.
Nobles County commissioners voted to terminate the contract with CodeRED and transition to the Regroup Emergency Notification System after staff reported that CodeRED was compromised on Nov. 10, 2025 and lost the federal IPAWS certification required for certain emergency notifications.
County officials said the loss of IPAWS capability threatens eligibility for Emergency Management Grant funding; the motion to transition to Regroup passed on a recorded vote. The board cited previous reliability problems and undelivered services from CodeRED as additional reasons for changing vendors.
