Fire Alarm Testing (March 2 & 3)

Please be advised that authorized personnel from the Fire Alarm System maintenance service provider will be on site to perform the annual fire alarm and sprinkler inspection as part of the routine planned preventive maintenance. During this time, the buildings’ audible alarm and flashing strobes will be activated for one to two minutes. This will be repeated during the testing period multiple times. Please disregard any audible alarms or flashing strobes as this is required to test the buildings life safety system appropriately. These inspections are required by the local fire marshal, fire codes, and national standards.

Note: If the audible alarm and flashing strobes are recurrently operating for more than five minutes during the test period then, this is a genuine evacuation indication and all occupants must follow the evacuation procedures immediately.

  • Inspection Areas: Montecito Clubhouse, Fitness Center, HOA Office, Shadow Golf Club, Santa Rosa Clubhouse
  • Date of Inspection: March 2 and 3, 2022
  • Time of Inspection: 8:00 am to 4:00 pm

We apologize for the inconvenience caused during the time of testing and appreciate your cooperation.

For more information, please contact the Facilities Maintenance Department at 760-345-4349 ext. 2401.

Safety Advisory Committee Bicycle Survey Volunteers

Hello Sun City Shadow Hills residents!

The Safety Advisory Committee is looking for 15 volunteer bicyclists who frequently ride their bicycles in and out of the community. Staff will assign these 15 volunteers a sample transponder instrument mounted to their bicycle and ask the bicyclist to report on the successful or unsuccessful use of the bicycle mounted transponder. The volunteer bicyclists will also report any safety concerns they experience accessing or egressing our traffic lane vehicle gates.

Volunteer bicyclists will be asked to report on the following questions:

  1. What gate/s did you use?
  2. How many times did you access the gate/s?
  3. Did motor vehicle traffic interfere with your access/egress?
  4. Using a regular traffic lane, did the transponder on your bicycle successfully allow you through the roadway gate/s?
  5. Did you feel safe or unsafe mixing with vehicle traffic going through the gates?
