Important Fire Safety Notice to Residents

Published by David September 25th, 2007 in Community News, Events, HOA, Security and Uncategorized. 0 Comments

The fire alarm system for the entire building must be inspected as the alarm panel is notifying the Fire Department that there are detector/annunciator modifications in multiple units in the building. The system cannot tell us which specific units the problems are in.

If at any time the smoke detectors or the white plastic wall annunciators have been disconnected (Changing Batteries Excluded), removed, replaced, relocated, covered or modified in any way please contact Selma at LB immediately by phone at 818-981-1802 X244.

Glendale Fire Systems will be here at MSL on Thursday, September 27^th from 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. testing the system, inspecting and repairing units. If you cannot be available to allow access to your unit you must contact Selma to make arrangements otherwise we will gain access with a locksmith to inspect and repair your fire alarm system as needed.

We will start inspections with units who have contacted us about modifications and hope this will resolve the problem. If this doesn’t correct the issue we will be required to inspect and test every unit’s fire safety system to remedy this extremely important safety issue.

We are faced with the most serious safety concern our building can have and the consequences of not fixing this problem immediately will result in the Fire Department shutting off the entire alarm system, placing a fire truck and crew on standby outside our building and charging the building thousands per day until the issues are fixed.

Amnesty will be given to owners & residents who contact us before the inspection of their units. If owners & residents do not contact us regarding this issue and it is discovered they are responsible for this issue fines and all associated costs will applied to their unit’s HOA ledger.

We recognize that this is an extremely short notice but the seriousness of the problem, possible dangers and Fire Department fines require immediate cooperation and compliance from all owners and residents.

Thank You
