  • The second point of entry, if gated, shall either be unlocked or when a locking mechanism is used it shall either be an SOS gate as above or have an approved emergency access sign
  • When the second access point is the end of a dead end street over 150' in length the street shall end in a culdesac with a minimum radius of 50'.
  • NOTE: Applicants for gated access roads must be willing to change to another approved type of gating system if such system is required at a future date. All maintenance and revisions shall be at the expense of the applicant, business owner or homowners' association.

This device is adjustable as to it's sound sensitivity and controls the proximity requirement of the responder at the gate. Each gate fitted with this high-tech device must display a suitable label or decal to remind the Fire, Police, or EMS responder that his SIREN is all the "key" he or she needs to enter the gated area.
