TreasureKY -> RE: City Government demands all keys to properties belonging to Cedar Falls residents (6/13/2011 8:02:13 PM)

The Cedar Falls, IA City Council has approved an ordinance that requires businesses and commercial properties with more than three units to install a lock box on the outside of the property that will contain any keys necessary to gain access to the property. The master key for these lock boxes is held by the Fire Department so that they can gain entry into the properties in the event of an emergency. I don't know about anyone else, but I would care if any city I lived in decided this was a good idea.

Businesses and commerical properties that are already licensed and regulated? BFD.

I wonder what the fine is.

D#@* this is a bad idea. I don't know of any lock that can't be picked especially by people who have had locksmith training.

tazzygirl -> RE: City Government demands all keys to properties belonging to Cedar Falls residents (6/13/2011 8:10:56 PM)
The man made the same comment. I dont know how easily they can be picked.

I have one of those boxes on the side of My commercial building and the firemen have a key to the box. I save on My insurance because of this.

Just as long as its some other guy and not me, eh? [;)] I dislike seeing freedoms erode this way. It may not be much now, and it might even appear reasonable on the surface. It's a slippery slope, nonetheless.

They can go to court and appeal it.

Id rather have a lock box availble to the FD than have them break the doors or glass just to find out if theres a problem. We dont own our building but building management and our alarm company both have keys, and they are located within a minute of the office and would beat the FD there anyway. And then theres the matter of the misleading subject line saying "All residents".

So WHEN I dont comply then I get a fine. I become a criminal.

If it was voluntary that would be one thing. Mandatory is something else again.

There's nothing at all anyone should be concerned about. PA's thread title was simply misleading. [8\|]
