The Siren Board

does anybody know about the sirens in Delaware Ohio like the old siren on top of Willis intermediate school or the model 7 at camp Lazarus. I am looking for any information available of Delaware`s old sirens I have read articles that Delaware did not have a system until 1996, but these are county operated sirens I'm looking for an entire overview of the old sirens in Delaware Ohio.

apparently, there was also a siren on the college campus across from the udf

Look at my Removed Sirens of Ohio Map, there could be some info there as i have a few sirens for just Delaware county in general. I’ll look into it more: https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit? ... sp=sharing

thanks

A news article from the early '90s said that the only City of Delaware siren was on top of the city hall and hadn't sounded in years. Did you recall another siren or two in Delaware?

there was also apparently one on top of Willis intermediate school but I'm still trying to find more information.

Let us know your findings

my dad worked at ppg in 2005 and heard this siren going off https://www.google.com/maps/@40.2825216 ... FQAw%3D%3D but he also said there was another one near the bunkers which I'm trying to find. there were also previous sirens at ppg before 1996 because my grandpa who worked near there said he heard one I'm still trying to find more information but apparently the old plant was destroyed? so there could have been sirens there beforehand

also could the siren on top of the city hall have been coded?

Yes, it was a Fedelcode Model 5
