A man hired to install a furnace at a Louisville woman's home faces charges after police said he took her money and never performed the service.

According to an arrest warrant, the woman paid James Jarvis Jr., of Jarvis Heating and Cooling, $1,250 on Nov. 1 to install a furnace at her home near Fairdale.

After receiving the check, the victim said Jarvis, 53, never returned to perform any of the work and never provided any of the materials to the victim, according to the warrant.

The woman told police she didn't have heat in her home all winter.

Police said Jarvis and the woman had known each other for more than 10 years.

Jarvis is charged with theft by deception under $10,000 and knowingly exploiting an adult more than $300.

Jarvis was previously served a warrant in a similar case.

Sometimes this do-it-yourself remodeling stuff is simply about surviving it.

After many years and many projects, you'd think I'd have some great tips, wouldn't you?

You'd be wrong.

My best advice for surviving a bathroom remodeling, for example, is have another bathroom.

My best advice for surviving a kitchen remodeling is eat out.

(Actually, it's "have another kitchen," but I'll get to that.)

My neighbors set out as summer was turning into fall to refinish their living room floor.

That doesn't sound too bad, does it?

Some sanding, some patching, some cleaning, some varnishing. It'll be work, sure, but nothing intrepid do-it-yourselfers can't handle.

Until they were standing there looking at those cabinets and chairs and couches and big-screen TVs and realized every room in the house already was full.

With construction set to start on Kelowna's new $48 million police services building on Clement Avenue later this year and the prospect of the RCMP vacating the current detachment building on Doyle Avenue, the city is starting to think about the future of an area it calls the Civic Block.

City staff briefed council Monday on its plans to study the three-black area downtown, stretching from Queensway on the south side of city hall to Smith Avenue on the south side of the Kelowna Court House and from Water Street to the west to Ellis Street to the east.

Contained in the area are several high profile civic buildings including city hall, the Kelowna Community Theatre, the existing RCMP detachment building, the main Kelowna branch of the Okanagan Regional Library, Memorial Arena, the Kelowna Centennial Museum and the sites of both the new Innovation Centre and the new Interior Health office building at the corner of Doyle and Ellis. Both buildings are under construction.

Other construction in the area includes a$14 million addition to the existing Library Parkade that is currently taking place and plans to build a new parkade between the museum and the arena.

With construction of the new Interior Health building, the current IH health unit building on Ellis is also slated to become vacant.

City planning specialist Ross Soward told council staff are planing a multi-phase program that will include at least two public workshops to help gather public input about future development of the area, work that is expected to start later this month and wrap up by October. A plan would then be put together and presented to council before June 2016.

The city wants to look at the area as a whole, not just on an individual building basis. The city owns the RCMP detachment building, as well as Memorial Arena and the Kelowna Community Theatre, all of which are aging and decisions need to be made about their futures.

Mayor Colin Basran said with the planned redevelopment of parts of the area, as well as the recent revitalization of nearby Bernard Avenue, it is becoming the heart of what he called the "new" downtown.

"We're going about this the right wayfrom a land use perspective," said Basran. "This is something we can't rush."

He said it is important to have representation of all in the community at the table when the city sits down to design its plan for the area's future.

CONSTRUCTION firm Beard has started a 5.3 million refurbishment of Norfolk House - the former HM Revenue and Customs tax office in Water Lane, Bristol, which is being transformed into student accommodation.

Beard is working with Stamford Goldhawk and architects Stride Treglown to develop the office building into 152 studio apartments with en-suite showers and fitted furniture.

The four-storey building will also house an on-site gym, cinema and private study rooms with high-speed broadband and wi-fi throughout.

Energy-saving measures include the installation of solar panels to the roof of the building, which will help to reduce the residents' carbon footprint and lower the cost of energy bills.

Beard contracts manager Martin Courtney said: "There is a desperate need for high quality student accommodation in Bristol and this hi-spec refurbishment will make a valuable contribution to meeting this need.

"We're delighted to be working with Stamford Goldhawk and Stride Treglown in the delivery of this important student housing scheme which will provide university students with a comfortable and purpose-designed home away from home during their studies."

The scheme is due for completion in July 2015.
