BAYT SECURITY

SECURITY & SAFETY COMMITTEE UPDATES FOBS In an effort to upgrade our security at BAYT, we are pleased to let you know of the implementation of a FOB system for entry into the building. Starting July 31st, all exit doors will remain locked at all hours of the day except when Security personnel/volunteers are in attendance (during primary minyan times, simchas and Shabbos). Full Members have the opportunity to purchase a FOB from the office, which gives access to the building through the Parking Lot doors even when a guard is not present. The cost is $25/FOB and can be paid by cash, credit card or cheque. Once the “Access Control” has been implemented, if you don’t have a FOB you will be unable to gain access to BAYT if no security personnel is present. The office staff and custodians will not be available to come and open the doors.

In addition we are also looking for volunteers who will be willing to give of their time to help in many of the elements that will help improve the overall security of BAYT, such as lockdowns and evacuations. If you are available, please contact Alan at [email protected].

Thank you for your continued support. Alan Jaff - Chair – Safety & Security Committee
