In recent weeks, numerous Brigham City residents have complained about the community-wide which slrensystem alerts volunteer fire- men to fires and ambulance calls. As a result, the city may have Installed a telephone system to help keep the siren quiet, at least part of the time. City officials Thursday witnessed a demonstration of how the telephone system would work. And they apparently were pleased with what they seen and heard. HOWEVER, an appraisal of the worth and need Is being left up to a fire department committee. Should the telephone method pass with flying colors, the councllmen indicated they also would approve it. Bill Nichols, sales representative for Mountain States Telephone and Telegraph Co., told the council that special alert hookups could be made at 42 telephones for $115 a month. How the system works is relatively simple. Fire or ambulance alarms will still be called Into the Brigham City police station. However, Instead of sounding the siren, the dispatcher will push a couple of buttons and a steady ring will sound on the telephone of every fireman. ON PICKING up the receiver a recording made by the dispatcher will relay the fires location and any other pertinent Information. Or If Just two men are needed for ambulance duty, the dispatcher, by pulling a couple of switches, can alert only those two men. The city officials agreed the system would be primarily effective for alerting the department and keeping the siren still at night. This on the reasoning that most firemen wouldnt be home during the day to hear their telephones. to the AS PRELIMINARY presentation, Councilman William Packer said because of some opposition, the length of fire and ambulance sirens had been reduced in time to the minimum limits. He said study had disclosed e that to establish a department In Brigham City would cost an additional $60,000 annually and mean a local tax Increase of six mills. full-tim- HE DISCOUNTED the need to have a full-tidepartment at present, describing the volunteer department as one of the most efficient In Utah, Including full-tidepartments In larger cities. The record shows local fire Insurance rates to be among the lowest in the state, another indication of what a fine department Brigham City has, Packer declared. Thad Carlson, local MST&T manager, said it would be about six months before the telephone system, called the command conference system, could be installed.

Sjoblem, Perry and Willard, has caused Paul state forester to issue the following proda" motion. It shall be unlawful to set any kind of a fire except in established public campsites and picnic areas, without a permit from a state fire warden. It shall also be unlawful to smoke other than within buildings and motor vehicles and within improved areas including oiled roads, acmpgrounds and resort areas or improved places of habitation. This includes state or privately owner lands on the Wasatch Front and in Cache county. J. D. Gunderson, district fire warden, urges Box Elder county residents to be exin tremely careful with fire since conditions the mountains are highly explosive. Range grass is abundant and with recent hot weather, extremely dry and will start ablaze with the slightest spark. |
