City Services

City services worked as planned in an emergency in Marion Kentucky. Since 9/11 we as a community have updated our city hall, fire services, police force, county services, rescue services to work as a team in an emergency; that happened and they reach out for help immediately and got it fairly swiftly from federal sources and state governments.

What did not work was the communications to the public. The best communications I heard in the first 5 days was a an emergency management signal ( this is a test of the ........) from Clarksville TN radio station on my battery radio.

What is needed is backup power for water and sewer supplies and our local radio station.
