Commissioners Approve Placing Antennas On Storm Siren Poles

Wabash County Commissioners have approved a request from a company to place antennas on the poles that hold the storm sirens in Mt. Carmel. WEMA Director Mark Seaton told commissioners Monday that the company, Utility Pipe Sales, will put up the antennas to aid in reading water meters in Mt. Carmel. Seaton said the antenna would not interfere with triggering or operating the storm sirens. The proposal was approved as long as no issues are caused by the antennas with the storm sirens.
