Unfortunately residents of Beaconsfield were particularly badly served by communications systems which were late being started, and slow to deliver. On one hand there are many serious limitations in the setup of the municipal communications systems in place to deliver messages to the residents. ... multiple mistakes indicating misunderstandings by city staff about how to use basic communications tools rendered the official  messages issued by the city, ineffective. The automatic telephone alert system was started hours late and took at least 7 hours to deliver a voice warning message. Yet it never called many homes. Two of the most universal electronic communications tools of our era,  , and the telephone were not used effectively by the city.
