Description
City leaders and citizens in Carnation criticized the City of Seattle's new Tolt Dam warning alarm on Wednesday afternoon and called for an improved system to help the community prepare.
Seattle city leaders told Carnation a "far superior" alarm would be in place starting on Oct. 18, but Carnation Mayor Jim Ribail said the warning system has been inadequate for the city.
