Local brief
Union County emergency alerts through OR-Alert
Sign up for Union County emergency alerts at oralert.gov. The foreclosure page is not an emergency alert.
Union County’s Notice Nearby alert slot was empty on October 3, 2026. La Grande is the seat. A mountain pass and a valley town can have different road problems the same morning.
Oregon’s finder is oralert.gov. It is not one inbox for the whole state. Search the county, or text a ZIP code to 888777 for a basic alert. The state page says Everbridge is the system used by all 36 Oregon counties, alerts are free, and a phone plan may still charge for texts. Text STOP to end texts. An empty Notice Nearby alert card is not an all-clear. TripCheck, at tripcheck.com, is the highway and weather map. Use it for closures. Use OR-Alert for the warning from public safety. Do not wait for a card on noticenearby.com in a real emergency.
A tax-foreclosure explanation is not an emergency pin. Do not stamp the assessor page with a warning.
Official pages opened for this brief: https://oralert.gov/; https://www.tripcheck.com/; https://unioncountyor.gov/.

This is a Notice Nearby local brief — an in-house explainer written from a government-posted notice on this register. It is not official minutes, not a newspaper story, and not Legal Publication.
