Annual Fire Alarm Inspection

On Tuesday, October 5^th, 2021 beginning around 8:00 am, Stanley Security will be conducting our annual fire alarm test mandated by the Everett Fire Department.

Everyone (including renters) will need to participate. This bulletin is to serve as notice that you are required per the Association’s by-laws to allow them access to your unit and garage.

They will inspect the central alarm and fire extinguishers. The main alarm is very loud and will be tested several times in each building that day. Please refrain from disconnecting your smoke detector in a futile attempt to kill the noise in your unit. It is not your smoke detector that is making the noise, although it would be a good time to make sure that your smoke detector is working properly:

• First locate your smoke detector, attached to the ceiling, in your hallway.
• Examine the smoke detector for a little round “test” button. All detectors have one. Press and hold the test button for a few seconds to see if it beeps. If it does, your detector is working properly. If not, remove the smoke detector and check your batteries. Batteries should be replaced twice a year. 
• According to the manufacturer’s instructions, all smoke detectors should be replaced after 10 years of use. The date will be listed on the back of the detector. If there is no date on the smoke detector, it is over 10 years old and needs to be replaced.
• If you hear your smoke detector “chirping” (it continuously beeps every few seconds up to a minute). This is an indication that the battery needs to be replaced.

Washington State law (RCW 19.27.530) requires carbon monoxide alarms to be installed in new residences. As of January 1, 2013, carbon monoxide alarms are required in existing apartments, condominiums, hotels, motels, and single-family residences, with some exceptions. Owner-occupied single-family residences, legally occupied before July 26, 2009, are not required to have carbon monoxide alarms until they are sold. To comply, simply install the CO alarms in the area right outside of each bedroom. They can be found in most hardware stores, etc.

Thank you,

Amazon Key for Bussiness

 

Amazon Key for Business was just installed on the Gate today. It will take 7-10 days for the system to become active. More information then.

Decks Inspection Tomorrow

In order to maintain the warranty on the coating, etc. decks must be inspected yearly. Because of the restrictions imposed by covid-19 we were not able to perform the inspection last year.

Advantage Contractors, the company that normally works on our decks, is currently on-site wrapping up the repairs of the sprinkler flooding in Building 3. Their schedule has unexpectedly opened up allowing them to perform the decks' inspection tomorrow, Thursday, March 4.

You do not need to be home, they will inspect the decks from the outside using ladders. 

Sorry for the short notice, but this will greatly reduce our costs.

Tree Trimming on Monday

Our landscapers will be trimming trees in the parking lot over the next couple of weeks.  

On Monday (March 1, 2021) starting around 9 am, they will trim the trees by the mailboxes and a couple of trees near the Shiloh fence. 

The next week, on Monday, March 8, 2021, they will trim the remaining trees by the Shiloh fence.

If you park on the west side of the parking lot, please be sure to move your vehicle to another parking lot location on Monday mornings.

Thanks for your cooperation.

Vehicle Broken Into Last Night

A vehicle was broken into last night in the parking lot. 

Here are some tips that may help:

1. Always lock your car.
2. Close and lock all windows.
3. Hide any valuables. If you can’t remove them, cover them.
4. Never hide a spare key on your car – thieves know how to find them
5. Park in a well-lit area – in your garage, if possible (and be sure the garage is locked).
6. Never leave your car while it’s running – if you start it, stay with it.
7. If you see something suspicious – like someone peering into parked cars or trying door handles – call 911.
8. Install an alarm or anti-theft device if your vehicle doesn't already have one.
