DAVENPORT, IOWA (March 27, 2023) — On March 28, at 10AM, the Scott Emergency Communications Center will conduct an out-of-sequence test of emergency warning sirens in the communities of Eldridge, Long Grove, and Park View, in Scott County, Iowa. These additional tests are required to test programming changes made in those communities for the system the system that triggers sirens during an actual emergency.

We apologize for any inconvenience this additional test will create. Residents may disregard sirens in those three communities between 10–10:30AM on March 28.

As a reminder, all sirens are tested regularly on the first Tuesday of each month at 10 AM. The next regularly-scheduled tests are scheduled for Tuesday, April 4, at 10AM.
