Sep 28 — Critical To Emergency Preparedness: Neighboring Buildings

Transamerica Building, 600 Montgomery St., 48th Floor


12:00 p.m. - 1:00 p.m.

Speaker:

Misa Gidding-Chatfield with PM Realty and Chair of the BOMA San Francisco Emergency Preparedness Committee’s Neighborhood Subcommittee will present a template on how to develop, maintain and expand a Neighborhood Watch Team with neighboring buildings.
 

A property management team needs to be prepared to respond to emergency situations and, to do so, must have a clear understanding of what resources they have on hand.  Several properties in the Financial District have enough staff to be self-sufficient; however, the majority of the properties have only a few personnel on staff.    As such, it’s important for all property management teams to partner with adjacent properties to determine if a mutual aid arrangement can be established in advance of an emergency occurrence.   Communication and knowledge are paramount to being prepared for any emergency (e.g., building specific or City-wide) and a neighborhood group of three or four properties will greatly improve and strengthen emergency preparedness for the entire group.
