NEW CITY — A ceremony Monday morning marked the beginning of a construction project for Rockland County's new backup radio communication room.

The backup radio room means if a natural or man-made disaster knocks the primary radio room in Pomona out of service, the system can still function, according to County Executive Ed Day, who was at Monday's groundbreaking ceremony.

How old is the current communications center? It seems odd they would build a brand-new backup center and just have it sit there. Is the old center bigger and perhaps this will be just a scaled down center to use in an emergency? $3 million doesn't seem like a lot of money, so my guess is it doesn't have all the bells and whistles like a break room, kitchen, showers, or even a spot to pull out bunks. But the idea is a solid idea no matter what the set-up. Many places don't have a solid back up plan.
