St. Louis Mayor Cara Spencer proposes merging city and county emergency management agencies to enhance disaster response, following the devastating tornado in May. The city has invested $3.9 million in improvements, with nearly all sirens back online. Fire Chief Dennis Jenkerson emphasizes the automated systems benefits.
