Severe Weather & Evacuation

• Tornado / severe weather: Kansas City is in tornado country. If a tornado warning is issued, shelter on the lowest level in the most interior room away from windows — the central hallway or the bathroom is safest. Stay tuned to local alerts (NOAA Weather Radio or your phone's emergency alerts).
• Power outage: the electrical breaker panel is on the kitchen wall near the back door. For an extended outage, contact David. Flashlights are kept in the kitchen.
• Evacuation / exits: the home has two exits — the front door and the back door off the kitchen. An evacuation diagram is posted near the front door. If you must evacuate, leave through the nearest safe exit and meet at the front driveway.

Fire Safety

• Smoke & carbon-monoxide detectors are installed throughout the home, including in each bedroom and near the sleeping areas. If an alarm chirps or sounds, call David — do not disable it.
• Fire extinguisher is located in the kitchen.
• Grilling: any outdoor grill must be used on the concrete patio with at least three feet of clearance from the house — never on a porch, deck, or under an overhang. Let ashes cool completely before disposal.

Trash & Recycling

• Keep trash bagged in the kitchen bin during your stay, and please don't pour liquids into the trash can.
• Bins should only be set out at the curb on the designated collection day and brought back in afterward — David handles the schedule, so just leave bags in the outdoor bins at checkout.
