The City of Owasso is initiating a Severe Weather Shelter Registration Program. This free, voluntary program allows residents of Owasso who own a personal severe weather shelter in the Owasso area to register their shelter with the City of Owasso. If you live outside the Owasso fence line, please contact your city or county Emergency Management office to inquire about storm shelter registration programs within that jurisdiction. Shelter registration is part of our effort to be proactive in response to rescue situations that can occur as a result of severe weather.
This program will provide rescue personnel with valuable time saving location information should a storm shelter exit be blocked by debris or structural damage caused by severe weather.
We encourage shelters owners to include an out of town accountability contact as part of their personal severe weather plan. This program provides an additional safeguard against being trapped in a shelter.
To register a storm cellar, safe room, or other personal severe weather shelter, contact the City of Owasso Emergency Management at 918-272-3828, or register online by filling out this form. Information recorded will include the owner’s name, location of the shelter, owner telephone contact number, and a brief description of the shelter type and specific location.
This information will be maintained by the City of Owasso and used only in the event of structural damage from severe weather or other related incidents.
For planning assistance, further information, or if you have any questions please feel free to contact Owasso Emergency Management Director Cliff Motto at 918-272-3828.
It is only necessary to register your shelter once. Please fill out the form FOUND HERE
