Fire System Update – Bldgs 1900, 2000, 2100, 2200, and 2300 

Dear Campus Community,

Buildings 1900, 2000, 2100, 2200, and 2300 have lost communication lines that allow their fire alarm systems to report out to Campus Security and the fire department.  The current timeline for reestablished communications lines is before the start of Winter Quarter 2024. Updates will be provided to the campus as they become available. 

Safety mechanisms that remain in place in these building include active horns and strobes (audible and visual alerts) which willnotify occupants in the building if there is any need to evacuate. Should an evacuation be necessary, occupants should contactCampus Security directly once they have left the building to provide notification that the alarms have been triggered (call the On-Duty Officer Cell Phone 206-235-5860). Campus Security will then coordinate a response from the Shoreline Fire Department if required.

I have connected with leadership of Building 1900, 2000, 2100, and 2300 to brief them directly on the situation. We will also be posting signage throughout the buildings previously listed (example below). Additionally, supervisors will communicate this information directly to staff to ensure that this message is not missed.

Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions at gcranson@shoreline.edu

Respectfully,

Greg Cranson | Acting Director of Safety, Security, and Emergency Management
