To the Editor:
I would like to respond to a letter by Carolyn Goeckel supporting the emergency siren (“Sounding the Alert,” 7/25).
She mentions the siren provides a heightened awareness for the public to be aware of an emergency and the volunteers who are attending the call. This is a valid point and may be helpful during the day and evening, but I’m not sure this explains the reasoning between midnight and 6 a.m. when an alarm is truly unwelcome.
