Culver-Union Township Fire Chief Terry Wakefield informed the Culver Town Council members last week that work is being done to coordinate repairs on two tornado sirens in the immediate area.
He said it is his main concern at this time to make sure there is an effort to repair the sirens at 16th Road and 19th Road as soon as possible, but stressed that there is no timeline, nor repair costs available at this point, and it will take time to get it done.
Meanwhile, EMS Director Michael Hasselfeldt presented a proposal from Stryker to perform preventative maintenance on equipment in each ambulance that would cover the repair, labor, travel, and batteries of the cots, power loads, physio controls, cardiac monitors, and Lucas Devices. He said the proposal was for $10,820.50 each year for a three-year contract. The council members asked to review the proposal before voting on the request. It will be revisited at an upcoming meeting.
