Mandatory Fire Drill
Dear Resident,
There will be a Fire Drill on Saturday 12 March at 10:00 am, weather permitting. The drill may be cancelled in adverse weather conditions, so if the evacuation warning has not sounded by 10:15am you may assume the fire drill has been cancelled and will be rescheduled at a later date.
If you are on site during the Fire Drill then, upon hearing the evacuation warning, please evacuate via your nearest fire stairs and proceed directly to the Assembly Area in the park beside Landsborough Ave, opposite The Scarborough. Please do not use the lifts.
Once at the assembly area, one of the Emergency Coordination Team will conduct a roll-call, so please ensure you/your apartment is ticked off. If there is anyone in your apartment with mobility issues please report this to the Emergency Coordination Team member at the Fire Indicator Panel in Tower A Lobby.
The purpose of the drill is to ensure that all residents know their exact evacuation route and the location of the assembly area. Full details on this, along with other helpful information, are clearly described on the Emergency Evacuation Diagram adjacent to the lifts in your floor foyer as well as at key locations throughout all common areas. Please take the time to regularly familiarise yourself with this information as it could save your life and the lives of other occupants in your care, during an emergency.
To help improve The Scarborough’s readiness to deal with real emergencies, the Committee is also distributing forms to identify occupants with mobility issues, which once complete will be collated and handed to emergency services when required. A copy of this form is attached to this post.
