SECURITY
Security is everyones business. If you see anything suspicious, please contact the Building Concierge immediately. In addition, please. Do not allow anyone to enter the building unless they use their own FOB. Do not leave FOBS in your vehicle. Report a lost or stolen FOB to the Resident Manager immediately. Do not buzz anyone into the building unless you know exactly who it is. Do not allow anyone to tailgate behind you into the parkade. When entering the parkade, dont proceed until the security gate closes completely behind you. And when exiting, wait in the alley until the gate is completely closed.

FIRE SPRINKLERS
Please be reminded that a fire sprinkler discharges water in the event of a fire or when it is tampered with. Please do not hang items (i.e. clothes on hangers, plants, etc.) from these sprinklers, as doing so will not only cause the sprinkler to set-off, but will also cause significant water damage to the building. Please be advised that all costs associated to repair the damaged will be the responsibility of the Owner.
SMOKE ALARMS
The smoke alarms in the hallways and other Common Areas are connected to the main Fire Panel in the lobby. If the alarm is triggered, the Fire Department will respond. You should immediately go to the nearest Emergency Stairway, and proceed down to the Exit. Your in-Suite smoke alarm is local only. If it is triggered, it will NOT automatically contact the Fire Department or the Resident Manager. But it is also very sensitive, and could easily be triggered by steam from your stove or from your shower. So be sure to use the Exhaust Fan above your stove or in your bathroom. If the alarm goes off due to this type of nonemergency situation, you should immediately open all the windows and patio doors to clear the steam. But dont open the front door of your Suite, since this could trigger the hallway smoke alarm, which would result in a visit by VFD!
VACATION
If you are going away on a vacation and/or your suite will not be occupied for more than one (1) month, please ensure the following; Leave an emergency contact phone number Inspection for any gas leaks, pipe leaks, and/or break-ins (at least once a week) Turn off all water supply lines in your suite
