Why would I voluntarily lead Historical Walking Tours of Cranbury Village and Monmouth Battlefield and give talks on the architecture and history of Cranbury if I didn't like it here. All I'm looking for is peace and tranquility for our preserved Village - dating back to 1697. Sirens are a health hazard (check the WHO), are disruptive to businesses and in schools and have an adverse effect on house prices (check Univ of Illinois study) for those houses within earshot of the Sirens.[/quote] Would this imply that the sirens saved you money on your own home purchase in Cranbury?[/quote]

Whether this or the library, but the home value makes little sense nor does volunteers wanting the siren to show people they're responding. <br /> <br />- unless you bought your home a hundred years ago the siren has been in effect. Assuming a siren depresses the market the cost has already been factored into your purchase price. The homes increase in value is then independent of the siren. <br /> <br />- how often do the sirens sound that create a depressed value? There needs to be some equation used. <br /> <br />- if people live outside of siren range than how does it help show volunteers are responding. <br /> <br />Let's call this as it is. The siren is a nuisance to some people. There are people finding arguments both ways. <br /> <br />The issue I see is does any argument trump safety. Mr. Moody, perhaps you could volunteer and see what goes into the response.
