EMERGENCY GENERATOR

As most of you may now the emergency generator arc flashed last week and caused a small fire. The generator itself was tested and is in good working condition. The only issue is the panel that connects the building to the generator was damaged and in need of repair. That repair work started last week and continued Thursday, April 25th with HMT and Global Power running the new wires and panel. The plan is to have the generator up and running by Friday, April 26th. We will send a separate email out to the community once it is tested and fully operational.

BOOK CLUB

The April selection is “Sooley” by John Grisham. The Book Club’s next meeting is on Monday, April 29th at 6pm in the Business Center.

ONGOING BUILDING MAINTENANCE

COMPLETED BUILDING MAINTENANCE

PETS OF SAVINA

Meet Kona, the resilient one-eyed Shih Tzu. Born sixteen years ago, Kona’s tale is one of courage, resilience, and unwavering loyalty. In his early years, Kona explored the lush fields of Michigan, but as life unfolded, Kona found himself amidst the bustling streets of Chicago, where he embraced the urban hustle with boundless enthusiasm. In the vibrant city of Las Vegas, amidst the glittering lights and desert landscapes, Kona discovered a new sense of adventure. However, it was in San Diego, the final stop on Kona’s journey, where he faced his greatest challenge. A daring leap from a fourth-story balcony tested Kona’s resilience like never before. Miraculously, he survived the fall, his indomitable spirit shining through even in the face of adversity. Now, in the twilight of his years,
Kona has found solace in the tranquil shores of San Diego. Though his days of daring escapades may be behind him, Kona’s spirit remains as vibrant as ever, a testament to the resilience and boundless love of a canine companion.

EMERGENCY EVACUATION UPDATE AND INFORMATION

Thank you everyone for your patience with our fire evacuation this past week. Everything was taken care of very quickly thanks to everyone’s cooperation.

For future fire evacuations please keep a few things in mind. First, if you have a medical or physical condition that prevents you from taking the stairs to exit, please wait in the stairwell closest to your unit or in the elevator vestibule on your floor. These areas will help keep you temporarily safe until the fire department arrives to assist you. Also, in case of the alarms going off and an evacuation notice, please quickly and calmy exit the building. Always assume it is not
a drill. Do not call the front desk to ask if you should exit as this can hold up the phone lines preventing emergency services being able to contact us if needed.

Please take the time to read through the emergency procedure forms attached to this week’s newsletter email. You will find more detailed instructions of how to respond to different types of emergencies. These forms can also be found in the resident portal under My Community > Documents.

Lasty, if you are physically unable to go down the stairs – even if temporary, such as any type of recovery – advise Management. Management keeps this information to advise first responders who needs assistance down the stairs.

1. Your pet’s name
2. A picture of your pet
3. Anything you’d like your neighbors to know about your furry friend!

WINDOW WASHING SCHEDULE – UPDATE

Window washing will be delayed 2 weeks. We will post an updated schedule once we have it.

PERSONAL TRAINERS

While Savina does permit residents to have personal trainers, it is the individual resident’s responsibility to instruct the personal trainer on the rules and regulations of the community. While using a personal trainer you need to ensure they keep the volume of their voice and music down. There is no cell phone usage in the fitness center and your personal trainer may not mark off sections of the gym for your use only. Please remember this is not a private fitness center and use is for everyone in a shared community.

ELEVATOR COURTESY

We know you love your furry friend, but those who are strangers to your pet might not. When riding the elevator with other residents, please keep your dog on a tight leash to avoid them jumping on or getting in close contact with someone who may be allergic or just not too fond of dogs. Also, if you are riding an elevator with another pet and their owner make sure that dog is able to ride with other dogs before entering or alert others if your dog is reactive.

This week’s pet is Winnie. She’s an approximately 12-year-old rescue, probably a long haired chihuahua. She has been with her owners for about 3 years and is the sweetest animal they’ve ever had. She always has a sad, contemplative look but she is happy around most other dogs and people.
