Missouri County Considers Phone Emergency Alert System
An eastern Missouri community wants to use more than outdoor sirens to alert people to the threat of tornadoes.
Marion County in eastern Missouri is collecting bids for a system that would use residents’ telephones to advise them of emergency situations.
Officials estimate the system will cost between $13,000 and $14,000.
The expense of the system will be split between the cities of Hannibal and Palmyra and Marion counties.
