I work for a movie theatre part time. We had the fire inspector come out today, and one of the things he said was that the fire department needs a copy of the keys to everything. When I heard this I said, "Excuse Me?!" Has anyone ever heard of this before? The theatre is in Kansas. I used to do volunteer firefighter work. If we needed in a burning building or other structure, we just destroyed everything in our way to get to the fire (at the owners expense of course.) I was the low man on the totem pole at the firehouse, but I never heard of us requiring keys to businesses by law. It just seems like a liability. Even though I am sure most fire personnel are good people, I would never give them keys to my house or business. Any thoughts?
