    Hearings gather seniors' input on services - March 6, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    BLOOMINGTON Offering easier access to information about services available and low-cost legal assistance are among the East Illinois Area Agency on Aging's funding priorities for the future.

    So is providing advice/respite for people taking care of loved ones as well as increasing the number of older adults eating congregate meals.

    These were among the points outlined Wednesday by Mike O'Donnell, the area agency's executive director, near the conclusion of a two-hour teleconference involving 17 members of the agency's advisory council.

    The purpose of the meeting was to hear a summary of public conversations the agency conducted starting Oct. 29 in Decatur and concluding Jan. 16 in Toledo one in each of its 16 counties to get input from older adults and service providers about what they think is needed most.

    O'Donnell said a proposed area plan will be published April 4 on the agency's website at http://www.eciaa.org and elsewhere, and after seven public hearings, the final plan is expected to be approved May 21. Requests for contract proposals would then be issued the next day to provide information and assistance, legal assistance, caregiver services and senior nutrition programming, starting Oct. 1.

    The agency will continue to work with the same partners, however, on some programs where a training investment has already been made, O'Donnell said.

    This includes Catholic Charities and St. Mary's Hospital in Decatur now offering Matter of Balance fall prevention classes in Macon and McLean counties and set to expand to Livingston County in the coming year.

    Other such programs include chronic disease self-management and Strong for Life exercise programs.

    Of the area agency's four top priorities, O'Donnell said, Providing information and assistance is our core mission.

    Such information/assistance is now provided in Macon County by the Macon County Health Department in collaboration with the Decatur-Macon County Senior Center and Community Home Environmental Learning Project, or CHELP.

    Florham Park councilman: 'No' vote was only for concession stand - March 6, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    FLORHAM PARK -- A Borough Council member on Monday said his opposition to introducing a $1 million bond ordinance to fix the aging municipal pool had nothing to do with the pool or even the expense.

    Rather, his objection was over the concession stand.

    The ordinance was introduced 5-1 during the councils Thursday, Feb. 20 meeting, with Charles Germershausen the sole council member to reject the proposal.

    The ordinance is expected to be adopted following a public hearing set for 7 p.m. on Thursday, March 20.

    Germershausen, however, wanted to make it clear he is not against the work needed on the pool.

    Rather, We should not be putting $200,000 into a snack bar, he said.

    I was OK with $800,000 for improvement at the pool.

    The problem was, he explained, the snack bar cost could not be separated out for a separate vote, so it was he was forced to vote against the entire project.

    Those endorsing the proposal were Council President Scott Carpenter, and Council members William Zuckerman, Thomas Michalowski, Charles Malone Jr. and Carmen Cefolo-Pane.

    Once the ordinance is adopted, the borough will issue $950,000 in bond anticipation notes for the work. The remaining $50,000 will be taken from the boroughs capital improvement fund as down-payment.

    Cambridge rogue trader Jason Pateman of Fen Road must now do honest days' work after court hearing - March 6, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Written byRAYMOND BROWN

    A Cambridge rogue trader will now do some honest work after he admitted fraud and money laundering.

    Jason Pateman, 23, of Fen Road, Cambridge has been sentenced to six months imprisonment suspended for 18 months after he pleaded guilty to the offences committed in Cambridgeshire. He was ordered to carry out 150 hours of unpaid work in the next 12 months, pay 440 compensation and pay 500 towards prosecution costs.

    Pateman, who trades as Total Property Maintenance, preyed on older and vulnerable residents, finding customers by cold calling at their doors offering home maintenance services. He offered anything from roof repairs and gutter cleaning to garden wall maintenance, with work frequently being of a substandard quality.

    This case follows an earlier prosecution of Pateman by Cambridgeshire Trading Standards in 2010 for failing to provide seven-day cancellation notices to his customers. Despite being given a conditional discharge in that case, Pateman has continued to carry out his activities without providing the requisite seven-day cancellation notices to his customers. These notice requirements are there to protect customers from high pressure selling, allowing them time to consider whether they really want work done.

    Cllr Mathew Shuter, the county councils trading standards chief, said Rogue traders such as Jason Pateman prey on some of Cambridgeshires most vulnerable residents, winning their trust with their friendly manner, and then taking their savings in exchange for shoddy, unnecessary work and deprive honest traders of work.

    Tigers to truck out snow to make way for new Comerica Park grass - March 6, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    NATHAN SKID / Crain's Detroit Business

    New Kentucky bluegrass will be installed this month at Comerica Park in the first full-field sod replacement at the ballpark since 2007.

    The Detroit Tigers soon will begin using plows, trucks and snow blowers to remove the layer of snow from the playing surface at Comerica Park so new grass can be installed and ready in time for Opening Day on March 31, the team said today.

    As reported Monday by Crain's, the Tigers organization bought 103,000 square feet of Kentucky bluegrass from Fort Morgan, Colo.-based Graff's Turf Farm.

    The turf is to arrive in refrigerated trucks beginning the week of March 17.

    This will be first full-field replacement at the 15-year-old ballpark since 2007.

    Since the initial set-up for the Winter Festival in November, when the grass was removed for a temporary ice hockey rink, the entire playing surface has been covered with a textile filter fabric that prevents debris and contaminates from entering the sub-surface, the team said.

    The fabric also allows the Tigers' groundskeeping staff to remove snow without removing or displacing the root zone.

    The infield and turf areas since Monday have been heated with surface-level construction-grade, 750,000 BTU trailer heaters, which blow warm air under large tarps, the team said.

    Once the snow is gone, the field will be leveled.

    Longwood front-yard farmer stands by his permaculture plot - March 6, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Photos by Brendan OConnor

    Weve all heard this story before: An academic, hippie environmentalist moves into a middle-class suburban neighborhood where neighbors like their front yards tended and prefer their lawns to have conservative buzz cuts, just like their men. The new neighbor has other ideas, however, and upsets the balance. People start to worry about their property values, pests and the aesthetics of their otherwise quiet subdivision. Its the age-old tale of living in the burbs the neighbors grass isnt always greener, especially when its dotted with radishes and dandelions instead of bright green sod.

    Shon Law is a 32-year-old tech start-up wizard who foundedsocial media website, Nebber, a few years back. Hes also a Longwood resident who refuses to mow his lawn. In fact, hes decided to stop interfering with his yard altogether in favor of planting edibles and letting it go native, a decision that his neighbors and the city are not happy about. Law is being fined $300 a day for abandoning the traditional grassy lawn for a quilt-like expanse of ankle- to knee-high tufty native grasses, weedy plants and isolated patches of vegetables. Law has placed a path of square cement blocks around the plot to try to make it look a little more civilized, but they really only emphasize how high and overgrown the grass is.

    To date, Law has accumulated well over $130,000 in fines for breaking city codes, mostly dealing with the length of his grass and attracting pests. The city of Longwood has placed a lien against his property in an effort to make Law change his ways, but he says he doesnt plan to change a thing.

    Video: Shon Law explains his farming philosophy

    When asked why, he says he believes hes doing the right thing. This area is a food desert, which means no food is readily available here and it has to be trucked in from somewhere else, he says. Sure, I could move out to Bithlo, but I bought this house here, and I have a right to do what I think is best on this property. This is a free city, and we cannot bar a property owner from doing something on the basis of aesthetics. If something happened and food was no longer being brought to this area, all of these people would starve.

    Law is practicing the art of permaculture, a method of agriculture rooted in natural ecosystems. His goal, like the goal of many permaculturists who went before him, is to bring sustainable, local sources of food closer to home.

    Clashes between radical locavores and their more traditional neighbors have grown more common as interest in sustainable food production has increased. In 2012, a College Park couple faced fines of more than $500 a day after neighbors complained that their front-yard vegetable garden was against code. In response to the controversy, the city of Orlando eventually rewrote its landscaping code to allow city residents to dedicate a limited amount of their property to edible plants.
