LETTERS: Wailing sirens on empty streets cause needless noise pollution

One of the great things about living in Port Washington is the fact that our lakeside climate makes it possible to avoid the use of air conditioners most of the summer. We really enjoy sleeping with bedroom windows open to let in fresh air at night.

But at 2:30 on a recent morning we were just about blown out of bed by a police car siren that you could hear all the way across town as it made its way out to wherever it was heading. This is ludicrous.
