Fire/Emergency Safety

Residents and their guests are expected to promptly evacuate the building whenever a fire alarm sounds and to observe all fire/emergency guidelines. Hall-specific evacuation procedures are outlined at your front desk. Whether accidental or intentional, the misuse, damage, and/or tampering with fire/emergency equipment (such as fire pull boxes, fire extinguishers, fire doors, fire hoses, smoke detectors, and sprinkler systems) is strictly prohibited and will result in behavioral, judicial, and/or criminal action. There is a minimum $500 charge for any damage, vandalism or disabling of fire/emergency equipment. Tampering with or disabling fire equipment and smoke detectors is a felony in the state of Arizona. Residents are encouraged to confront individuals disregarding this policy and to report the incident to their RA, hall staff, or DPS.
