Emergencies
I would like to talk a little with you about
some issues that have come up that you
can help us with.

Leave door chocks in the doors during
medical emergencies.
When we receive a
call for a medical emergency we use red or
yellow door chocks to keep the doors open
for firefighters and paramedics. If you see
these chocks in a doorway, please do not
remove them. They are there for outside
emergency personnel to gain access to
the building. Colorado state law actually
prohibits you from removing such devices
from doors. If you ever have a question as to
whether door chocks are legitimately placed
there, please call Community Response
and we can inform you if we are currently in
your building. I know this is counter to what
Association policy states regarding keeping
doors propped open, but under the law these
need to be left in place for the emergency
personnel coming in and out of the building.

nd
If we are in a unit within your building,
please do not congregate
around the
unit we are working in and definitely do not
enter without being given permission. We
understand that a building or a floor can
become like family, and it is human nature
to want to see what is going on with your
friend, but we ask that you stay in your units
or down the hall, so we can do our jobs and
have room to work. Also, under federal law
people have the right to privacy, especially
when it comes to their health, and we have
the duty to protect our patients’ rights.

Missing or outdated Emergency Data
Sheet (gold sheet):
For most of our residents
Community Response keeps on file an
emergency data sheet, a gold sheet that you
should have filled out when you moved in.
We are finding that a lot of resident files are
missing this paperwork or the information is
outdated. We will be sending new sheets to
Community Response
From Euell R. Santistevan,
Chief of Community Response
make yourself less of a target. Do not keep
valuable items in your vehicle, especially in
spots that are easy to see. ALWAYS lock
your doors, don’t make it easy for someone
to just open your door and rummage through
your belongings.
Parking permits
Did you know that WG residents need to have
parking permits for any vehicles that you
own and that are parked on WG property?
Permits help us identify vehicles and their
owners. If we are about to tow your vehicle,
we can try and contact you before we do. A
permit also helps if you leave a door or trunk
open or an emergency happens with your
vehicle as we are able to notify you.
If you do not have a permit, all you have to
do is bring your vehicle registration to the
Administration Office, and they will issue one
to you.
For your safety, none of the newer parking
permits have our community’s name on
them. If your permit has become unreadable
or is one of the older permits that say
Windsor Gardens on them, you may get
a new one issued. Then your vehicle and
personal information and the permit number
are all tied together in our system.
Political signs
The political season is upon us. We are
already receiving reports of political signs
going up. Remember you cannot post any
political sign until 45 days before the election.
Please read through the political sign policy
available in the Administration Office and
online at the Association’s website.
We are here for you.
Community Response is here for you, please
call 303-364-4924 if you need emergency
assistance or use your city services by
calling 911.
residents via your Building Reps for you to
fill out and return to us. We ask that you get
them back to us as soon as possible, but
please wait for your Building Rep to give you
the form. We need to control the number of
forms that are being returned to us at a time,
so that we may efficiently and accurately
update our system. It will be a long process
to get through all of the residential buildings,
but we will get everyone done as quickly as
we can. We appreciate your help with this.
Suspicious activity
Please be sure to report any suspicious
activity around the community. When you
call Community Response we will respond
and investigate the activity. We DO NOT
give out the information of the person who
has called in or filed a report. Please do
not fear retaliation. We also will not contact
you unless you ask us to do so; this is so
we keep your identity anonymous. Please
make sure and call Community Response
when you see something that you need us
to respond to.
Keep valuables out of your car
It is hard for any community to be crime
free. However, you can do your part and
