Pranksters who broke into the Romeoville Emergency Management Agency’s previous activation system forced the change, Mayor Fred Dewald told the Village Board this week.
The pranksters have been persistent, setting off emergency sirens several times over the last two weeks, Dewald said.
The new activation system is a digital one and should be tamperproof, he said.
In other business, the Village Board approved a proposal to open a used-car sales and financing business on the site of a former gas station on U.S. Highway 53 near Rock Road.
