siren-test-8-2023

The Police Department is in the process of improving on the Early Warning Emergency Siren System by adding speakers that will allow for voice announcements during activation.

These speakers will be placed along Gulf Blvd. and span both of the Police Department’s service areas. (Indian Shores and Redington Shores)

The Siren System will be tested on Wednesday August 23rd at 12:00 noon.

We will resume the schedule of testing every first Wednesday of the month starting in September.

Please remember the siren is activated when County Emergency Management collectively has made the decision to order a mandatory evacuation of the barrier islands.

This is your signal to leave the barrier island.

Please remember to make plans early if we are required to evacuate.
