BRISTOL A New Britain paving contractor arrested earlier on charges of scamming clients is being held on bond on charges he has continued to prey on the elderly.

Brian Curylo, 28, of 41 Pleasant St., faces new charges that he forged several checks totaling more then $3,300 from two elderly clients.

In one of the cases, police said, Curylo, in late August allegedly told an 83-year-old woman with vision problems that he would seal a crack in her driveway for $25. When the woman had trouble writing him the check, he offered to fill it out, instead making it out for $850, according to his arrest warrant.

On Aug. 22, the warrant said, he stole five blank checks from a client who reportedly had dementia. The checks were later cashed between Aug. 22 and Sept. 8, totaling $2,475.

The elderly client told police Curylo must have taken the checks when he allowed him into his home.

Curylo was arrested in connection with the incidents earlier this month and charged with offering home repairs without a license, second-degree larceny, third-degree larceny and seven counts of third-degree forgery.

At his arraignment on Monday in Bristol Superior Court, he pleaded not guilty to all the charges.

Police previously said they had received numerous complaints about Curylo for allegedly not finishing driveway work he promised to do under his New Britain company, Hot Top Paving.

TOPEKA, KAN. ----- An Oklahoma door-to-door paving operation was ordered to pay a $100,000 penalty and more than $13,000 in restitution to two Kansas consumers for violating Kansas consumer protection laws, Attorney General Derek Schmidt said.

In a default judgment entered this week in Shawnee County District Court, Judge Rebecca Crotty ordered Will J. Harrison, Jr., doing business as Wester Construction and Will Harrison Paving, to pay the civil penalty. The company was accused of engaging in unfair and deceptive practices while selling paving services door-to-door.

In addition to the civil penalty, Harrison was ordered to repay a total of $13,300 to two Kansas consumers.

Schmidt warned consumers to be especially cautious of door-to-door home repair sales which claim to offer a good deal.

Consumers should be on the lookout for these fly-by-night operations looking to make a quick buck, Schmidt said. Kansans who are in need of driveway repairs should seek out local, reputable contractors and get multiple written estimates before having any work done.

Canberra residents affected by the Mr Fluffy asbestos crisis have welcomed a Federal Government deal to resolve the situation.

The ACT Government has agreed to accept a concessional loan of $1 billion from the Commonwealth to help pay for the demolition of more than 1,000 properties affected by potentially deadly loose-fill asbestos.

Meanwhile a report by the Asbestos Response Taskforce on the Long Term Management of Loose Fill Asbestos Insulation in Canberra Homes found there to be "no effective, practical and affordable method to render houses containing loose-fill asbestos insulation safe to occupy in the long term".

The taskforce listed three possible options for Mr Fluffy homes but warned demolition was the only "enduring solution to the health risks posed by the presence of loose-fill asbestos ... and their attendant social, financial and practical consequences".

An estimated 1,021 homeowners across Canberra have been waiting for news of a possible compensation package after a warning was issued in February that their homes could still contain potentially deadly asbestos fibres.

Under the deal, the Territory Government would pay back up to 70 per cent of the loan by selling off some of the cleared blocks of land.

Chief Minister Katy Gallagher said the proposed buy back and demolition scheme would start next year following discussions with homeowners and take approximately five years to complete.

"The Commonwealth will provide a loan facility which allows us to enter in to individual agreements with the home owners, to buy back and clear the blocks," she said.

"We expect there will be a big hit next year in our budget as we acquire 1,000 homes and have to adjust that on our balance sheet."

The ACT Government said it would have liked the original Memorandum of Understanding signed 20 years ago with the Commonwealth on the Mr Fluffy homes to have been adhered to.

Mr Fluffy asbestos residents welcome billion-dollar Commonwealth demolition, compensation deal

SPENCER, Iowa | Demolition crews on Tuesday started tearing down Spencer's former police station and the former Clay County Jail to make way for a bank parking lot.

The work should take about two weeks to complete, weather permitting, said contractor Paul Sieh.

Siehs company is handling the work for Farmers Bank, which adjoins the former city property in the 400 block of First Avenue West. Bank president Dave Woodcock said the space will be used for additional parking.

It took Farmers Bank, in the 100 block of West Fourth Street, more than 20 years to decide to buy the city property, Woodcock said.

Then-city manager Dan Payne first approached the bank about buying the building in the early 1990s, Woodcock said. At that time, city offices were moved to the old Professional Building on Second Avenue West.

The police department moved into the former City Hall space, however, and the property wasn't available again until April, when the police station moved to the former Spencer Municipal Utilities building on Grand Avenue.

The county jail moved to3115 W. Fourth St. in August 2013.

The bank bought both properties for $115,500. Demolition, including asbestos removal and fill, is expected to bring the total price tag to about $250,000, Woodcock said.

"While the two properties are probably the only space the bank will see on the market in that block, we have no immediate plans for expansion," Woodcock said. "The corner will be nothing more than a parking lot for the foreseeable future.

If you're feeling nostalgic about Libertyville's old Brainerd Building and want to say goodbye before it comes down, you'd better act fast.

Demolition of the 97-year-old former high school and the adjoining Jackson Gym building is set to begin next week, possibly as soon as Monday, Nov. 3, Libertyville-Vernon Hills Area High School District 128 spokeswoman Mary Todoric said.

Last week, crews with an Elk Grove Village company called Asbestos Inspection and Management began removing potentially dangerous asbestos from the buildings, which are on Route 176 just east of the current Libertyville High School. That work should be completed Wednesday, Todoric said.

A Michigan firm called Dore and Associates will handle demolition. It will be paid $484,800 for the job.

The asbestos removal was expected to cost an estimated $45,000.

Because of health and safety issues, no one is allowed inside the building for photographs. But people can take pictures of the buildings' exteriors.

Once the structures are razed, the space will be filled in with dirt for the winter, Todoric said. In spring 2015, some of the land will be converted to green space for athletic uses. Another part will be paved over for parking.

A memorial marking the site as the former home of the Brainerd Building will be added, too.

Details will be finalized during the winter, Todoric said.

"Ultimately, the legacy of the Brainerd property is that it will, as it had for decades, continue to serve the needs of Libertyville High School students," Superintendent Prentiss Lea said. "Although the physical buildings will be gone, students will be learning, growing and achieving at ever higher levels on the footprint of the original building."
