Dear Residents:

Due to the efforts of Peter Backwansky, a Springs Resident, we have been provided information of another little known service provided by our Green Valley Fire Department.

We are all aware of the small lockboxes realtors use at a residence if for sale. The house key is kept in the box for use of other realtors to "show" the house.

These boxes are now available for private use. Please see details below titled `RESIDENTIAL LOCK BOXES" and the the PDF order form for the product. You order the box, obtain additional house keys, and then coordinate with the Fire Department at the phone number provided. This is not a service provided by the HOA nor is it a requirement of the Community. However, if you are interested, I suggest you look into it in the near future as the Fire Department is going to publicize this product in October and there could be a rush on the lockboxes.

Sincerely,
Dick D'Angelo
President, The Springs HOA

Testimonial from one of our residents...

Dear Residents:

On June 13th I mailed my order form and check to the GE Rapid Entry address. On July 2, Fed Ex delivered the safe. I then called the Fire Department. They installed the lock box the next day, July 3rd. Excellent service all around. I feel that the lock box was an excellent idea, especially for someone living alone.

RESIDENTIAL LOCKBOXES

Fact Sheet

Residential lock boxes are designed to be a very secure method of allowing District firefighters access to your home via a key box. This can be critical in the event you cannot open your own door. This eliminates the unavoidable damage that will occur if we have to force entry.

Lock boxes are extremely strong and are only used by GVFD firefighters. Lock boxes cannot be used by friends, neighbors, or any other person as we carry the only coded keys.

Your home keys are secured inside the box and are access via a special key carried on the fire apparatus.

The cost of the box including shipping and tax is about $71.50. Installation by the Fire District is $25.00 or you can arrange you own installation. We must approve the location of the box. This is typically near your front door.

Key boxes are manufactured and sold by Supra. This is the same company that serves the real estate industry. All costs with the exception of the installation fee go directly to Supra. The District does not retain any of the product cost.

Your lock box information is kept in our dispatch centers computers and they alert responding crews of this fact. A red sticker is also attached to your front door area to show firefighters that a lock box is present.

NUMEROUS LOCK BOXES ARE ALREADY BEING USED IN OUR AREA. A SIMILAR BOX IS USED ON MANY COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS.
