Henderson police report liquor compliance results and emergency signal problems at intersections
Summary
Police reported recent underage alcohol compliance checks: Oden's Liquors previously failed a January buy and passed a recent test; Express Liquors failed the recent test. Officials also reported a siren‑activated signal malfunction during a July 1 response and vehicles failing to yield to fire apparatus.
Police Chief Gary Davidson reported the results of underage alcohol compliance checks. He said Oden's Liquors failed an underage purchase in January but passed a follow‑up test this week; Express Liquors failed the current check. Chief Davidson said no additional city action was required at this time.
Separately, Mayor Terry F. Bell and Chief Davidson discussed a July 1 fire response during which a siren‑activated traffic signal did not function properly and several vehicles failed to comply with the emergency response. Mayor Bell noted a city (Humboldt) had hard‑wired a button at its firehouse, and Chief Davidson suggested options including a generator or battery backup to address failures when power is out.
