(KLZA)-- Richardson County Emergency Management is hoping to test the siren atop the Richardson County Courthouse in Falls City on Thursday. 

A technician is scheduled to perform maintenance on the siren between 10 a-m and 2 p-m so the test could be done anytime during that time frame.

In a related note, during Tuesday’s Richardson County Board meeting, Emergency Management Agency Director Brian Kirkendall told the Board the siren on Old Highway 73 located west of the aquatic park and south of Community Medical Center is the top priority to get replaced.

The Board voted unanimously to approve the $23,293 expenditure to replace the current siren at that location which is no longer in working order.
