Building security

Leave a comment

Earlier in the week someone managed to get into the building and access the lobby and top car park and then exited.

It has been reported to the Police.

We have determined how the person evaded the security system and that ‘hole’ has been filled.

It does not seem like he took anything but did check for unlocked cars and cages.

If you store a bipper to open the roller door, please get Esteban to make that device set to ONLY open the roller door. In some nearby buildings, cars have been broken into to get bippers to access the other floors of the building.

Here is a video of him in the car park https://tinyurl.com/Intruder400

Latest tunnel news

Leave a comment

I attended the Community Reference Group (CRG) meeting today – via Zoom.

Some things to note:

  1. Work is continuing with social distancing taken in account
  2. The final design (including possible central bike lanes) has still not been released and no date has been set for this.
  3. Albert Rd park will be tidied up this week, most poles/wire to go
  4. Big yellow bentonite tanks on The Shrine corner gone before Easter
  5. Tunneling to start late April/early May
    1. Millie first and then Alice about 4 weeks later..heading to South Yarra
    2. Distance to South Yarra is about 1.7km and they do about 10 metres per day…so it will take until late 2020
    3. Noise and vibration being monitored closely
    4. Will be 24*7
    5. Material coming out of tunnel will be a slurry form. It will go to Edmund Herring Oval for ‘drying’ and will then be trucked away from there. Trucks will go up past the Shrine in most cases.
    6. Trucks expected to create more noise than the tunneling

WhatsApp group for the building

Leave a comment

I have resisted for a long time but I think that it would now be a good time to have a group messaging system for everyone in the building.

WhatsApp is an app that runs on all mobile phones. and allows people to post messages to others in the building.

In the current climate you could post things like – I am going for a walk but would enjoy some company, who is willing to walk near me….I really need a roll of toilet paper…anyone need to chat about things?…I am going to get bread and milk and happy to get similar for others…

To join the group, send me a text to my number 0418 100058 from your mobile and I will add you.

You can give it a try, if you don’t like then you can withdraw at any time
