Fire Extinguisher Inspections Monday May 4th

On Monday May 4th, we will need to do the annual fire extinguisher inspection. We ask that you please have your fire extinguisher set in front of your front door by 8:30 AM on Monday May 4th. Please know that we will have to come in your homes if you do not set out your extinguisher. Unfortunately, if we are not able to get to your extinguisher or it is missing, there will be a $50.00 fine. We will be coming around to collect the extinguishers, inspect them and then returning them to your doors by 5:00 PM.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation and time.
