Security update for key card/fob holders.
We have just received an additional series of electronic keys to access the church (and soon the Chapel Annex). The process of verifying who was initially issued electronic keys (around 2016) and the working status of the keys is just about complete. In the process of implementing the Model Policies and ensuring that access to the church is limited to those that absolutely need unaccompanied access, we have added a registry of electronic keys with clear guidance regarding the liability associated with being issued an electronic key.
As part of this key control process, anyone that has an electronic card or FOB, is requested to bring their electronic key to the office to 1] verify the serial number; 2] verify that the key is working; and 3] to sign the acknowledgement/liability form for their key. The form will be kept on file in the church office until the key is returned. On November 14, 2022 if a key has not been signed for, the key will be deactivated until the key acknowledgement form has been signed.
