05/28/09 Reader Submitted Comments: Police sirens should be used only when "absolutely necessary" because the sound can make areas seem more dangerous

Strict policies need to be put in place on the use of warning sirens in the Town Of Greenwich.

Such noise in Greenwich can actually add to the whole perception that this is a violent and dangerous place.

The policy in town should be to only use sirens only when absolutely necessary. At all other times they should be turned off.

This is something we can do to reduce our contribution to the cacophony of noise in Western Greenwich.

Paramedics and firefighters must also bear responsibility for their contribution to the noise levels in Byram.

I believe the operational considerations of the Greenwich Police Department should be balanced against the considerable disruption caused to local people when deciding on the use of sirens.
