This past Wednesday (2/8/2012) Vice Mayor Chris Bratcher was on the WGNS Action Line radio program, and he took calls from listeners dealing with concerns about Murfreesboro. Here are some of the responses to those issues:
Blackman Roadway

Tune Avenue Flooding Problem
Flooding on Tune Ave at Mr. Puckett's property (1331 Tune Avenue). We have looked at this before, but still not been fixed. He has pictures of water standing and it is a musquito problem when we head into the warm months.

MTSU Tornado Siren Was Silent During Recent Warning
Residents near MTSU said they did not hear the tornado sirens the last time there was a warning.
What's Next?
Bratcher has checked-out these complaints and has now formally made a request to City Manager Rob Lyons. More than likely, the information will be passed to the proper city departments to correct these issues. WGNS News will keep you informed.
