=~ r ~~ <br />~~ <br />MEMORANDUM <br />ity of ~~ <br />lk • <br />River TO: .Pat HIaers <br />City Council <br />FROM: Bruce West <br />DATE: September 26, 1995 <br />SUBJECT: Public Alert Notification Sirens <br />As Emergency Management Director for the City of Elk River, I have been carefully <br />studying the areas within Elk River for the placement of notification sirens. With the help <br />of Glenn Sundeen, the following areas have been chosen for the placement of the 1995 <br />notification sirens. The first location is at 221st Avenue NW and Monroe Street. The <br />second location is Twin Lakes Road and Kennedy Street. These two areas were chosen <br />because of power availability, population, city priorities and total siren coverage for the <br />area to be served. I strongly consider the placement of a siren in these areas as a benefit in <br />terms of outdoor notification for the area to be served. However, we want to be <br />considerate to the citizens of the City of Elk River with the placement of the proposed <br />siren. Therefore, a letter was sent to effected residents in these two areas as to notifying <br />them of the placement of a public alert notification siren in their residential area. Enclosed <br />is a copy of the letter that was sent to each resident in the two proposed siren locations. If <br />you have any questions or comments in reference to the two selected areas. Please feel <br />free to give me a call at the Elk River Fire Department. <br />• <br />13065 Orono Parkway • P.O. Box 490 • Elk River, MN 55330 • (612) 441-7420 • Fax: (612) 441-7425 <br />
