An emergency siren will soon warn the neighborhoods below the Museum Fire burn scar of imminent flooding. Currently, Coconino County Emergency Management uses the Rave Mobility Emergency Notification System (ENS) to alert residents of an emergency. “I think this is, in fact, an important tool for the health and safety -- especially for those that live in the Museum Fire flood area,” Horstman said. The District 2 supervisor represents much of the area most impacted by flooding below the Museum Fire scar, overwhelming storm drains and frustrating residents. A similar system is already in place in the Slide Fire burn scar in Oak Creek Canyon.
