Title

Emergency Outdoor Warning System and Travelers' Information Station Idyllwild and San Jacinto Mountains

Description

The County, in collaboration with the Idyllwild Fire Department and local Mile-High Radio Club, identified locations for upgrades and installation of the outdoor warning speakers and integration of the existing TIS system. Locations include existing fire stations, county property, local water district, schools, and private associations such as the Boy Scout camp. The work will be performed in multiple phases, the first phase consisting of planning /design followed by construction (procurement, installation, testing, and activation of the system). Construction will be implemented in several phases depending on ability to get real estate agreements in place and obtain entitlements. The Project will improve public alert and warning systems to ensure the dissemination of reliable, relevant and actionable information to residents, visitors and others enjoying the Idyllwild and the San Jacinto Mountain areas giving the opportunity to provide warnings in the event of emergencies. The area comprising the Project sites and equipment would occupy less than 0.1 acre on sites near residential communities. Additional staffing would not be required for the Project.
