New Outdoor Warning Siren being installed to replace the older siren located at Bowser Meat Processing at 513 S. Palmberg, in Meriden.
This Siren is a Model 2001-130 and will have a warning range of 1 1/2 miles and a broadcast of 120-130 DB. This will provide warnings to the football stadium and residents in the area for many years. The old siren was an ACA-Banshee with a range of 1/2 mile and was 40 to 60 years old.
Thank You to the Meriden City Council for upgrading the siren to help protect people and students.
