New storm sirens have been received. Their installation will signal a major upgrade to the current system under which sirens cannot be heard in certain areas of campus. The new sirens will be controlled by radio so they will be unaffected by telephone failures, and coverage should be greatly improved. Testing of the new sirens will be announced in a future Clip Board. The water from faucets or drinking fountains should not be used for drinking or making coffee until the boil order is lifted, and the warning signs are removed from fountains and building entrances.
Discussion is also underway regarding the re-roofing to be completed in late summer.
Louis St. soon. Weather and site conditions permitting, concrete pads will be poured, which will allow the installation of the HVAC units and the electrical transformer. Shelving bids are due March 27, 2001. Traffic is reduced to a single lane in each direction. An alternate route to campus for those coming from the south or west is to take Route 255 north to new Poag Road.
