We are currently having room 7 and the adjacent rooms tested
for mold and mildew. This area has a separate air handling
system and can be isolated from the remainder of the
building
and may be usable for some of
our activities and daily operations.
We are also
investigating alternative plans in case we cannot return to
the present building.
It
appears that most routine activities will be suspended until
at least October unless individual activities can arrange
temporary accommodations.
Equipment and Furniture Loans:
We regret that all "Loaners" will have to be
discontinued until salvageable items can be properly
sanitizd.
New Building –
2001 Shreve St.
The walls that were constructed blew down because cement
was not available for the tie beams. As materials become
available construction will resume. Our building will be
delayed but construction will continue. We did discuss
deferring construction to make resources available for other
rehabilitation and reconstruction but this was not felt to
be necessary by our contractor. Losses will be covered by
the builders insurance.
The new move-in target date is
May 2005.
Roofing:
City Council has changed City Code to permit “Cement or clay
tile or metal roofs” in PGI. As the Land Regulating
Ordinance is in the final stages of review and approval we
will work with the city to define acceptable metal roofs.
THE CITY WILL NOT BE PERMITTING ANY ADDITIONAL
SHINGLE ROOFS IN PGI.
The
Commentator:
The Commentator was ready for printing when Charley
visited. The present issue does not represent our present
status and a new issue will be forthcoming when possible.
In the meantime we will be using pgica.org and
possibly puntagordalife.com as much as possible to
provide information.
Motor Homes:
The City has stated that during the reconstruction of
homes in PGI, temporary living quarters such as motor homes
will be permitted. Contact City Hall for permitting
requirements.
Vacant Lot
Clean-up:
Clean-up of vacant lots is the owner’s responsibility.
Debris on the street edge of vacant lots will be picked up.
There will be more than one sweep for debris.
Canal
Clean-up:
We have been advised that the City
has
contracted for removal of debris from
the canals. IN THE MEANTIME USE EXTREME CAUTION NAVIGATING
THE CANALS. |
