Six newly installed emergency sirens will be tested simultaneously for the first time on April 5th at noon. The new sirens replace Trotwood’s aging siren system, which has been dysfunctional for over a year.
The new sirens were funded by a FEMA grant coordinated by Trotwood Fire and Rescue. One additional siren is yet to be installed in the southern portion of rural Trotwood. Fire officials believe the new locations will provide better coverage for alerting the public to emergencies such as tornado warnings.
The sirens will be tested each Monday at noon throughout the year. The sirens are located at 1333 N. Lutheran Church Road, 3031 Shiloh Springs Road, 4385 Salem Avenue, 4510 Seybold Road, 15 W. Trotwood Boulevard, and 909 Miller Avenue. A seventh siren is yet to be installed on Old Dayton Rd.
