The Mayflower Fire Department is pleased to announce that we have received a $28,158 grant from the Arkansas Community Foundation to help with the purchase and installation of  two Eclipse 8 sirens.

The grant funds will be used to buy two new stationer sirens to be placed inside the city limits, replacing the rotating ones located at Mitchell Street and Jackson Avenue. We’re currently working on other grants to have the rotating sirens moved to White City and Easterwood Point Roads, so that the rural areas will be notified, as well. The total cost of the entire project will be $52,947.60.
