The tenant association has released an updated record of 911 calls originating from 3003 Van Ness. In past months, calls were made to 911 for help with incidents recorded as:
Assault, burglary, disorderly disturbance, domestic violence, drug use, drug distribution, elevator rescue, fire alarm, gun incident, knife incident, noise disturbance, overdose, property damage, robbery, sexual assault, stabbing, suspicious person, theft, and verbal harassment.
These monthly records of 911 calls convey an approximate sense of the problems that have occurred. On the one hand, these are calls for help — not arrests. On the other hand, there are many incidents which occur that do not result in a call to 911.
The very high number of calls — many for serious offenses — are the reason the tenant association has worked hard to pressure management to improve security at 3003 Van Ness. Specifically, the tenant association has repeatedly requested that Equity Residential repair broken exterior doors in order to prevent unauthorized acccess to the buildings, install working video cameras that are actively monitored and record and save video, and hire a full-time security guard.
