PRESERVATION AND PROTECTION

NO VARIATION TO THE GENERAL REQUIREMENTS.

SECURING

There is a need to separately identify the requirements for the City of Philadelphia. Therefore, in the City of Philadelphia, install Hampton padlock code 802 on front entry doors, rear entry doors and on any other secondary entry doors. Secure garages and outbuildings using a Hampton 802.

Mortgagees must obtain prior approval from the M&M contractor prior to re-securing a property.

Swimming Pools:

Replace any damaged or missing boards or sections of fence.  Remove all trash from interior of pool.  As necessary, build frame and cover pool with appropriate decking or wire mesh in accordance and in compliance with State and local codes.   Mortgagees do not need prior approval to secure pools.

Securing Cost Schedule

BOARDING

Use of screws, including basement windows, to secure boards is prohibited except when securing casement or other fixed type windows.  Written justification must be supplied when a method other than bolt boarding is used.  1/2-inch plywood is to be used with light holes cut in medium to large size boards.  Boards are not to be pierced or overlap each other.  Use 2-inch sheet rock screws every 7 inches.  Boards are to be cut to fit within ¾ inch, of the opening. Do not overlap wood or cover side bricks.

Boarding is pre-approved in the following zip code areas, however, mortgagees must exercise judgment before boarding properties.  Only board if property is in a high vandalism area and boarding is the only reasonable means to protect the security of the property.

Per ML 2004-07 (and prior to March 12, 2004 per email from Golden Feather)
Window openings in these zip codes are to be re-glazed and doors must be installed in entryways of the building. Doors must be secured by installing a hasp or eyebolt using the #5 Master lock key code A389 on front and rear entry doors. Install a slide bolt on any remaining secondary entry door on the first floor.
