City considers linking call boxes to fire alert system
In a plan pitched by a private firm, the city could connect its call boxes to the nearest fire alarm box to speed alerts. The system would use existing telephone poles with contracts from phone companies, reducing new pole needs. Rates for messenger and watchman supervision would reflect distance and hour by hour demands, with tighter supervision during the alert period and penalties for late signals.
