[Adopted 1-18-2006 by Ord. No. 356]
All high-rises, multistory, multi-office buildings,
and all commercial and industrial buildings identified by emergency
services officials as having difficult access during emergencies shall
be required to install, or cause to be installed, a lockbox prior
to receiving a certificate of occupancy. Furthermore, all owners of
said buildings shall install said lockbox system within six months
of the adoption of this article.
The lockbox/key vault system is a high security
key vault master system keyed to the specifications of the Lower Makefield
Township emergency services providers. A key vault is not required
to be attached or monitored by an alarm system, although it is recommended.
The key vault must contain a diagram of the interior, tag keys or
entry cards for the main door to the core of the building and all
interior office doors, mechanical rooms, fire suppression system and
elevators. Furthermore, if the building is designated as a SARA facility,
all hazardous material and/or chemicals must be identified.
The Chief of Police of Lower Makefield Township,
who is a designated emergency management coordinator for the Township,
shall be responsible for the implementation of this program, including
the distribution of lockbox/vault keys to emergency response personnel,
and for the maintenance of security of each such key. The Township
Police Department shall be responsible for the enforcement of this
article.
