Builder and developer Minto Communities is pledging to support Builders Care through each home sale.
Builders Care is the nonprofit arm of the Lee Building Industry Association (BIA). The program provides emergency repairs and construction services to elderly, disabled and poor people who are unable to obtain home repairs through traditional means.
Minto Communities is donating $100 from each home sale through its Bonita Isles community to Builders Care, providing money to assist the organization in helping local homeowners in need of renovations. In addition, Minto Communities said it is donating its services and resources to complete a large residential renovation project for a qualifying homeowner in Lee County in 2014.
We believe in helping our community and we believe in the mission of Builders Care. We are looking forward to helping out through our industry, said William Bullock, vice president of Minto Communities-Florida, in a statement.
Minto Communities support speaks volumes to the commitment they have to our community, said Wendi Carroll, president of Lee BIA Builders Care. We are fortunate to have them to help local homeowners in Lee County.
Donations can be made online at http://www.LeeBuildersCare.org.

The building that was once a haven for recovering sick and injured sea turtles will undergo basic repair as Topsail Beach commissioners decide its fate.
Commissioners on Wednesday night approved a $3,100 bid to remove mold and make other repairs to the former Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue and Rehabilitation Center.
The town assumed ownership of the 900-square-foot building, which sits on town-owned land, last month. The former turtle hospital, which looks much like a single-car garage, operated in the town for more than a decade before it was relocated to a new, much larger facility on the mainland in neighboring Surf City last November.
Topsail Beach Town Manager Tim Holloman said hed like to use the building as a storage facility until commissioners decide what to do with it.
Thats expensive storage, Commissioner Tom Eggleston said after Holloman reviewed the bids. If we would entertain the notion of selling it we could get it on the tax rolls.
Former town commissioner Grier Fleischhauer said the building is on a non-conforming lot, leaving the town with two options use the building as storage or tear it down.
I dont think you can build another floor on it, he said.
Commissioners approved the higher of two bids 4-0 to make repairs to the building, including mold remediation and removing dry wall. The higher bid included an additional $800 for cleanup on the outside of the building.
Commissioner Julian Bone was excused from being absent.

Septic System Installation & Repair
Whether youneed updates, repair, replacement or new construction installation,Kothrade has the knowledge, experience and equipment required to get your job done in a timely andcost-effective manner.
The cost, process and requirements vary depending on factors such as: soil type, water usage and local jurisdiction. Leave the variables to us! We will work with you along the way from the initial design to your first tank cleaning.
Do you have an existing system?
During sale or title transfer, the septic system may need to be upgraded to make the system compliant per Minnesota code. Check with your local government unit for their property disclosure requirements. To find out whether or not your system is compliant, call Kothrade for a tank certification.
System may be failing
There are many reasons why a septic system may start to fail. Routine pumping (every 2 -3 years) and proper care will help with the longevity of your system. While there are several signs of a failing system, the most prominent sign is effluent surfacing in the drainfield area.
Adding a room to a home?
Septic systems are designed to handle an estimated usage based on the number of bedrooms and size of a home. Adding to your home or building a garage etc to tie into the existing septic system may require an update to the system to meet Minnesota code.
New construction?

Property owners on Bembury Drive and nearby streets complained to Naples City Council that footing a $24,376 bill to connect to city sewer lines is too much for owners of only 53 homes to handle.
Despite pleas for a reduction, council on Wednesday voted to adopt the estimates and create a special assessment area on Bembury Drive, 13th and 14th Avenue North and 15th Street North to connect to the city sanitary sewer system. Bembury Drive property owners, who use well water, also must pay $2,011 to hook up to city water.
The vote was 5-1, with Councilwoman Teresa Heitmann opposing and Councilman Sam Saad absent. Council also voted 6-0 to issue up to $2 million in bonds to finance the work.
The small ranches tucked behind the post office on Goodlette-Frank Road are among 1,400 properties outside city limits targeted for a sanitary sewer and water system expansion. About 40 percent of Naples utility customers live in unincorporated Collier County. Many concede its needed, but the estimated cost prompted an outcry years ago, when it would have been $5,000, and it was delayed.
I dont know how Im going to be able to maintain the cost, even if its spread out over a 20-year period, homeowner Dean Rich told council. This is not an affluent neighborhood. . Its an encumbrance to ask property owners to personally finance the cost.
Homeowner Michael Heiderman said they arent in favor due to the hefty bill, which would be $37,000 with interest if homeowners chose to pay it over a 20-year period.
Were being asked to bear exorbitant costs, he said, adding the city will still receive a 25 percent premium from payments after theyre gone.
Homeowner Ian Bartoszek pleaded with council to reduce payments to less than $20,000, adding, Thats much more palatable.
But City Manager Bill Moss said Naples tried applying for grants to help offset some of the costs. He suggested costs could be less, but they wont know until work begins in the fall.
Naples is contributing $250,000 and is only charging an impact fee and costs to install meters. City officials point out that Bembury residents also arent being assessed $65,000 for water lines. Officials may help by seeking bids for a contractor to remove septic tanks and extend pipes. Otherwise, homeowners must find contractors for an expected $2,000 job.

CAPE CORAL, FL -
City leaders in Cape Coral are planning the next phase of a controversial utilities expansion project.
Water and sewer line work is well underway in areas referred to as "southwest six and seven" located in southwest Cape Coral.
The next phase of this massive project is now being discussed by city leaders, who on Wednesday held a special meeting on the topic.
Construction began in December on the $100 million project that residents in Cape Coral have been hearing about for years.
Workers have dug up a section of southwest Cape Coral to install new water and sewer lines and replace septic tanks and wells.
The utilities expansion project came after countless hours of discussions at heated council meetings.
Residents argued they were being forced to pay for something they didn't want - up to $20,000 each.
City council heard those citizen complaints, but still felt the expansion was the right move for Cape Coral as a whole.
"Our job as council members are to look at not only what's going on with them and obviously it's in all of our hearts, but our bigger job is the city," said Rana Erbrick, Cape Coral City Council member.
