Detroit The program director for the land banks federally funded demolition effort has resigned, the authority confirmed Thursday.

Rebecca Camargo is stepping down from the post for other opportunities, said Craig Fahle, a spokesman for the Detroit Land Bank Authority. She tendered her resignation last week and it will be effective Sept. 1, he said.

The high-ranking departure is the latest in recent months for the land bank, which is currently at the center of a federal criminal investigation into the citys demolition activities. The probe is among several federal, state and local reviews.

Camargo, a former Wayne County prosecutor, has worked with the land bank since 2014 and formerly assisted with its nuisance abatement and drug house programs. She could not be immediately reached Thursday for comment.

We thank her for her time, said Fahle of Camargo, who took the director job earlier this year. Shes been a great asset to the land bank for over three years. We wish her well.

The demolition program came under scrutiny in fall 2015 amid concerns over bidding practices and soaring costs. The land bank oversees Detroits blight elimination along with the Detroit Building Authority. More than 12,000 blighted homes have been demolished under the program since May 2014.

Camargo was named program director in mid-January, replacing Pura Bascos, who resigned. Officials at the time said Bascos was stepping down to return to her family in New Orleans. Days later, land bank compliance manager Martha Delgado left the blight reduction program for undisclosed reasons.

The departures came after former building authority deputy director Jim Wright, who oversaw the blight removal program, abruptly resigned in August 2016.

Bascos and Delgado were among 14 current and former employees listed on subpoenas from the Office of the Inspector General for the Troubled Asset Relief Program received by the land bank last year requesting documents pertaining to federally funded contracts and several demolition contractors.

The land banks deputy general counsel, Tammy Daniels, will step in as the interim director, Fahle said.

A permanent replacement will be determined by the land banks new executive director, Saskia Thompson, who is slated to join the authority Sept. 5. Thompson, a Detroit native who formerly served as deputy finance director for the city of Philadelphia, was selected for the $150,000-a-year position following a national search.

Prior executive director Carrie Lewand-Monroe announced her departure in March to take on a consulting role with the agency as well as private development work. Lewand-Monroe had joined the land bank in 2014 and became its executive director in December 2015.

Crew have begun work to demolish Pensacolas historic 1928 Hallmark School as a Texas-based homebuilder moves forward with plans to erect 76 townhomes on the site.

Located at 115 South E Street, the school was named forGeorge Stone Hallmark, a prominent Pensacola judge. Closed in 2011, the school was sold for $1 million in 2013 toPensacola-based 349 LLC. Following several unsuccessful attempts to develop the property,349 a partnership between attorney Fred Levin and longtime associate Fred Vigodsky sold it last month for $1.65 million to Dallas, Tex.-based D.R Horton, one of the nations largest homebuilders.

Demolition permits were issued for the 89-year-old school back in January, and city records list the permits as having expired in March. City officials, however, said the permits were still valid due to delays in asbestos testing and abatement.

Because demolition of the structure cannot occur until the testing and abatement have been completed, the contractor was not able to start the demolition until approved by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, said city building official Bill Weeks. The demolition contractor was allowed to continue the work on this demolition permit in accordance with the Florida Statutes regarding permit life.

As of Thursday, crews from Maverick Demolition had razed most of the library outbuilding and were well underway with interior demolition of the main school building.

Despite the buildings age and its handsome Renaissance Revival architecture, its not located within any of the citys historic districts and was thus unshielded from redevelopment. A proposed historic preservation ordinance introduced by city council president Brian Spencer last year would have required board review before any structure built before 1940 could be demolished, but that proposal was pulled prior to a vote.

I do think this is a loss and its another historic neighborhood school that has been demolished in the past few years, said Ross Pristera, a historic preservationist with the University of West Florida Historic Trust. This site had a lot of potential with the large amount of open acreage and a great historic building. The original school building could have been rehabilitated and the developer could have applied for historic tax credits and a local ad valorem tax exemption.

Architecturally, the school had great Renaissance Revival details and fit with other buildings of this period, Pristera said.With this loss, more generic-looking buildings will replace the interesting architecture that makes Pensacola unique from other cities. Besides the architectural importance, the personal connections related to this school are strong since it served the community for decades.

City council members in June issued final approval of the new proposed plat for the five-acre site, which calls for 76 0.03-acre townhome parcels arranged around the perimeter of the property. D.R. Horton hasnt yet released details about the development or construction timeline.

MT. VERNON The MVTHS School Board Tuesday approved seeking bids to demolish Buildings A through F and M at the old campus.

The cost of demolishing the buildings and abating asbestos has been estimated at roughly $1.3 million, but a firm price tag won't be known until after bids are received. The goal is to complete the project by June 1, 2018, but the time frame is not set in stone, said Mt. Vernon Township High School Consultant Dr. Nick Osborne.

That's our target, Osborne said. We'd like to see it all taken care of before the next school year begins.

Last month, school board members reached a consensus that A through F and M Buildings should be demolished and G and H Buildings should be sold. A through F are located on the east side of Seventh Street and M is a small house across from F Building.

Dealing with the old campus has become a major priority for the board considering the cost of maintaining the site, as well as liability and vandalism concerns.

Estimates are it costs $11,000 to $12,000 a month or about $150,000 a year to maintain A through F Buildings with utilities. And while outside parties have expressed interest in buying G and H, no one has done so for A through F.

Currently, MVTHS officials are compiling a list of firms that may want to submit bids for the demolition. A bid specification packet will be sent to those companies.

In addition, the district will place ads in local newspapers to advertise for bids and interested parties can also contact MVTHS for more information.

Potential bidders will be required to attend a pre-bid meeting Sept. 13 in A Building at the old campus. A time for the meeting has not yet been set.

We think this is important enough that we're going to make sure people are understanding what they're getting into with this, Osborne said. This is a very big project, a very large project with a lot of issues that have to be attended to.

MVTHS Board President Matthew Flanigan warned that the asbestos abatement adds another layer of complexity to the project.

There's a lot of liability issues, especially with asbestos, that we've got to take care of, he said.

Meanwhile, the district is seeking proposals from architectural firms to oversee construction of a new 15,000 square-foot maintenance building that would also include space for athletic and drama storage, as well as concessions and restrooms.

It is unclear whether MVTHS will build one or two structures. The cost is estimated at more than $1 million and the project also has a tentative completion date of June 1, 2018, Osborne said.

MVTHS will pay for the demolition and maintenance building out of its Capital Projects Fund, which contains about $2.5 million from the state's final payment for the new school construction, among other revenues. The rest of the state funding was used to pay off half of MVTHS' debt.

According to updated figures presented Tuesday, the Capital Projects Fund begins fiscal year 2018 with a balance of about $6.8 million and will end the year at $212,000, a loss of about $6.6 million.

The fund includes roughly $3.5 million in expenses to pay for the maintenance building and old campus demolition, as well as completion of the greenhouse and the baseball/softball fields.

Interim Superintendent Marilyn Holt said she hopes bids for the demolition and maintenance building come in much lower than initial cost estimates.

Holt praised Osborne and Director of Facilities Brian Rightnowar for their work on the projects and said she is excited about the progress being made.

They have done amazing work and I take my hat off to both of those gentlemen, Holt said. I'm pleased with the progress.

One of the least popular homeowner honey-do tasks right up there with toilet scrubbing or cat litter emptying is (yuck) gutter cleaning. You could install gutter guards as a way to simplify this annoying chore, but are they really worth the cost? Lets take a look at what gutter guards are, exactly, and what they can do for your home.

First, whats a gutter for? And why does it need cleaning?A gutter is a trough made of metal or vinyl, which edges the bottom of your roof. Often called rain gutters, these devices collect rain and melted snow running off your roof and channel them safely away from your homes foundation, via a type of tube known as a downspout. Unfortunately, rain gutters also tend to collect what we scientifically refer to as gunk. Here are some unwanted items that often end up in gutters:

fallen leavestree branches and twigspine needlesseeds (which, left alone, may eventually sprout into baby plants right there in the gutter)mossdust and dirtpollennests home to birds, wasps, or small rodentsanimal droppingstennis balls and other toys

Without regular gutter cleaning, all these things can block your gutters and eventually prevent water from draining off through the downspout system as intended. Instead, it will end up soaking into your fascia boards, walls, and/or foundation, where it may do thousands of dollars worth of damage and even threaten the structural integrity of your home.

In winter, water backup will freeze, resulting in ice dams which can tear off the gutter installation, downspout, fascia, etc., etc.

What are gutter guards?Designed to minimize gutter cleaning, gutter guards are covers which keep out debris and allow rainwater and snowmelt to flow freely through your gutters. They can be included in the gutter installation or retrofitted at a later date.

There are 5 basic types of gutter guards:Screen gutter guards are the most common and cheapest type, which are uncomplicated to install as a DIY project. Just cut PVC or aluminum screening to the dimensions you need and drop or slide it into place. However, standard screen gutter guards dont filter out smallish items like pine needles.

Foam gutter guards are extremely porous foam strips that are inserted in the gutter. Water passes readily through the foam, but solids are trapped on top. These are super simple for the home handyperson to put in place.

Brush gutter guards work similarly to foam. Place them inside the gutter and theyll allow water to pass through, yet trap any solid particles in their bristles. This is another excellent do-it-yourself choice.

Micromesh gutter guards have tiny holes, capable of filtering out almost every size of debris. They should be installed by an experienced roofing pro, either mounted under your roof shingles or attached to your fascia and to your gutter. For durability, choose surgical stainless steel mesh.Surface tension gutter guards are curved covers that guide water into the rain gutters, while solids slide harmlessly off the guards and onto the ground. Once again, find a professional roofer to install these.

Do gutter guards eliminate gutter cleaning completely?The good news is that gutter guards can cut down significantly on gutter cleaning work and the clogs that result when cleaning is neglected. The bad news is that they are unlikely to eliminate this job completely from your home maintenance checklist.

You will have to budget a certain amount of time to remove rubbish from the gutter guards themselves. This is a lot less trouble than old-school gutter cleaning, though, and only needs to be done every couple of years ... as opposed to at least twice annually without gutter guards.

The average cost to install 200 running feet of mid-range gutter guards is $1,500-2,000. (Cheap gutter guards tend to be poor quality, which may need frequent repair or replacement.) Do the math and decide whether you feel the added convenience is worth it to you personally.

Students at Mt. Pleasant High School are simultaneously working to battle the Zika virus and earn credit toward an associate degree.

If you are lucky, they might even do some house work for you, too.

The schools mechatronics and AP environmental science classes are working together in an attempt to reduce the citys mosquito population in an effort find ways to prevent the spread of the Zika virus.

Students in the environmental science class made their first presentation of their new project in front of fellow students and local residents at the Mt. Pleasant Community Center last week.

As the mechatronics students continue the work they began last year designing and building both an aerial and aquatic drone to test samples of stagnant water across middle Tennessee, the environmental science class has been working to collect and record Mt. Pleasants current mosquito population.

After taking samples of stagnant water for the past two weeks, the class will soon begin encouraging members of the community to implement methods to reduce the mosquito population.

The students remind the community the most important thing to keep in mind was to avoid letting water lay stagnant.

One of the most common places for mosquitoes to lay eggs are gutters, so the students, assisted by their peers, will offer a gutter cleaning service on Tuesday, Aug. 22.

We wanted to reach out to the community, Nicholas Wilkes said. This is to help the community and aid our own research.

Students will take samples of the stagnant water and then clean the gutters at no charge.

For more information or to request the service call (931) 379-5583.

We dont just want to experiment on campus, Phoebe Hurt said. Not only will we be getting the samples we need but we will be helping the community.

Students do ask that participants live near walking distance to the school.

The teenage researchers will again take samples in the coming weeks to see if there is a change in the local mosquito population.

The results will be recorded and entered as part of the Lexis Eco Challenge, a national STEM competition for grades 612 that awards a total of $500,000 in grants and scholarships to eligible teachers, students, and schools each year

This year we hope to make use of some of the resources we got last year, mechatronics instructor Armin Begtrup said. We will have some real data we can point to. The kids have the motivation and I am loving the collaboration between the classes.

Students participating in the project will earn college credit hours following the school districts partnership with Columbia State and the Tennessee College of Applied Technology.

Although the project will give students a head-start in college showing the similarities between the scientific method and the fundamentals of design and engineering, Begtrup said the projects most importantly giving students a valuable life skill that that they can use no matter what profession they eventually choose.

Learning the content is one thing, but teaching these students how to work and think collaboratively is really what we are doing, Begtrup said. They are learning how to approach a problem and create a solution. That is how the real world works.

Last year, some participating seniors earned scholarships based on their work on the project.

Kem Pounders, an experienced educator at Mt. Pleasant High School, is instructing the young environmental scientists.

The collaboration builds the strengths between science and engineering, Pounder said. We dont need to be isolated, we need to be working together for every project that we do.

MACEDONIA City Council recently approved an ordinance to amend the zoning code to increase the maximum permissible height of buildings from three stories to four in a B-1 convenience business district.

Council also is considering ordinances which would increase the maximum permissible height of buildings by one story in B-2 community shopping, B-3 general business, B-4 highway business and business office districts.

Those measures remained on second reading at Councils Aug. 17 meeting.

Councilwoman Sylvia Hanneken voted against the increase in height in a B-1 convenience business district, saying she would rather the ordinance go to a third reading so citizens would have additional time to comment.

"The height revisions were considering are radical changes and could have a major impact on residents," she said. "I think were not giving citizens all possible opportunities to understand them."

Other Council members noted the issue had been on Councils agenda since the end of May and most of the input received from residents has been positive.

Mayor Joseph Migliorini explained a major hotel chain is interested in building a four-story structure in the B-1 district, and "this is an opportunity to take advantage of increased revenue for the city and the addition of jobs."

He added since the zoning code was adopted many years ago, the city now has improved firefighting equipment such as an aerial ladder truck, and can provide better protection for higher buildings. "The fire department has no objection to increasing the height," he said.

OTHER MATTERS

Council recently approved legislation to continue setting aside funds to offer services for senior citizens.

One measure authorizes the re-establishment of a refuse collection subsidy, one authorizes the mayor to enter into an agreement with Valley View Properties for a gutter cleaning program this fall and one provides for a snow removal program for the coming winter.

According to Sharon Sopata, administrative assistant for the service department, 99 total senior citizens participated in the programs last year.

The city will appropriate up to $15,000 for the refuse collection program and up to $5,250 for the gutter cleaning program. Snow removal will be provided at a cost not to exceed $12.50 per push.

The services will continue thanks in part to voters passage in May of a 0.5 percent income tax increase, which is providing an additional $2 million per year in revenue.

For the refuse collection, all applicants must be at least 65 years old and/or seriously disabled. For the other two programs they must be at least 65 and/or disabled and have no one living in their residence who is capable of performing the snow removal or gutter cleaning tasks.

Applicants must provide proof of age and/or disability and proof of income, and they must fit into certain income guidelines. The snow removal program will provide one push of snow within a 24-hour period when new snowfall exceeds 3 inches.

Eligible persons can contact the service department for information about the programs and how to sign up.

Members passed ordinances confirming the mayors promotion of Sean Hathaway to police sergeant and the appointment of Daniel Edwards as a full-time firefighter. Edwards is moving from part-time to full-time to replace a departed full-timer.

Council also adopted resolutions confirming the appointments of Patrick Velotta as a member of the planning commission,Jessica Brandt as a member of the civil service commission and Terry Repak to the board of zoning and building code appeals.

Council OKd a resolution authorizing the city engineer to advertise for bids for the Sioux Lane culvert replacement project.

Members also authorized the mayor to enter into an agreement with the villages of Glenwillow and Oakwood and city of Twinsburg to make improvements at the intersection of Richmond, Broadway, Shepard and Ravenna roads, and approved service payments in lieu of taxes for the owners of the Ambassadors Football parcel at South Bedford and Highland roads.

Height of buildings to increase; hotel eyes Macedonia site - Columbus Parent

Are you having problems with a flooded basement? Maybe its because you didnt clean your gutters. Keeping the rain gutters on your roof cleaned out prevents a lot of seemingly unrelated problems that homeowners seldom think about. When your gutters are clogged and you see rain water running over the top, its not only making messy puddles and trenches on the ground surrounding your home, that rain water has the potential to do a lot of very costly damage.

What you can see soaking into the ground around the home can be soaking into the foundation of the home. When the water freezes during the winter, it causes cracks in the foundation. If you have a basement down there, those cracks can lead to basement flooding. Those leafs and twigs in the gutters become heavy when they soak up water. The gutters can fall off your house. Falling gutters take down outside lighting and even break windows on the way down. But the unseen and most costly damage comes when water backs up under the roof. This causes the roof sheeting to rot (under the shingles or whatever roof top you have), or the trusses to rot, and water can even run down into the walls rotting wall studs, shorting out electrical systems, and water coming in the home. If you dont clean out those gutters, the time may come when you literally no longer have a roof over your head.

You need to clean those gutters at least every spring and autumn. In some regions you may need to do this again late in the autumn after all of the leafs have fallen. While youre at it, you need to check the downspouts to be sure these are draining properly. A blocked downspout will still cause water to backup into the gutters even if the gutters have been cleaned.

Regular gutter cleaning is low cost. It is physical work but its not technically challenging nor does it require expensive tools. To start with, you need is a sturdy ladder in good repair. A sturdy ladder is critical. Never climb a ladder with broken or damaged rungs. Never use a ladder that is shaky or that has a tendency to lean sideways. Houses built on a slope or hillside can be a challenge for propping up a steady ladder. There are attachments available to lengthen the downhill leg of a ladder. This can make the difference between a ladder being steady or falling over when the ladder slants sideways because one foot of the ladder is in a hole or drops off an inch or two on a downhill slope.

The other common tools you need are a pair of work gloves, a handheld garden trowel, a five-gallon bucket, and a garden hose. A good trick is wiring the bucket onto the ladder at a height close to the rain gutter level. That way, you dont have to hold onto the bucket while scooping out the debris. Something else smart to do is check the weather forecast before planning to climb the ladder.

Never clean the gutters from the top of the roof. If you try this, youll be right at the edge of the roof and risk falling off. Start cleaning the gutters at the end nearest the downspout. Use the trowel and your gloved hands to first take out the large twigs, leafs, and other debris. Keep your body centered on the ladder (inside the vertical rails). Work one arm length of the gutter at a time. Get down, move the ladder, and work the next arm length. This takes a little time but a lot less time than a trip to the emergency room with a broken leg or arm from a fall. Also, if you use a ladder that leans against the house, there will be a small diagram on the side of the ladder leg showing you when the bottom of the ladder is the proper distance from the house. Its a little 90-degree diagram (L) that will be vertical and horizontal when the ladder is leaning against the house correctly.

After you clean the large debris out, check to make sure the downspout is draining properly. Use the garden hose to run water down the spout. The water should not back up when you run plenty of water through it. This also helps flush out any small debris that might in there. Once youre sure the downspout is clean, hose out the length of the gutters of any dirt and small debris that didnt come out with the trowel. Afterwards, check one more time to be sure the downspout is flowing freely. Thats all there is to this twice a year chore. Put your tools away.

If the downspout isnt flowing freely, you may have some more work to do. First, try flushing it out from the top using a spray attachment on your garden hose. If that doesnt work, try flushing from the bottom going up. If the downspout goes underground, you might need to disconnect it at ground level and spray up the spout as well as underground. If these tricks dont work, try unplugging it with a plumbers snake or pressure washer before calling in a professional.

While youre cleaning the gutters and downspouts, look for any damage to the entire system. The most common is for the gutters to be pulling away from the roof. If it is, youre probably going to need to make a trip to the hardware store for some replacement hardware or need to call in a professional. Another thing to look for are leaks at the joints and corners. These can usually be sealed by cleaning the area thoroughly and applying some silicon sealant.

Officials this week approved a $32,780 contract for a Darien-based company to do masonry repairs to the town-owned Schoolhouse Apartments building on South Avenue.

The Schoolhouse Apartments building was constructed in 1931 as New Canaans first junior high school, complementing the original New Canaan High School, built in 1927 (now the New Canaan Police Department next door). Credit: Michael Dinan

The funds will come from the senior living facility itself, through HUD, according to Bill Oestmann, superintendent of buildings with the New Canaan Department of Public Works.

[Schoolhouse officials] had went out and got some quotes to do repairs on the buildings and sidewalks and they were confused because the numbers were so crazyall the quotes were something differentso explained to them at that time that these policies had been implemented there, that the town owns all that property, we are liable for all that stuff, so we will mange the project, they are going to give us all the funds through HUD, Oestmann said at the meeting, held in Town Hall. They had no problem with that.

He added: And at the end of the day, the town owns the building and so we want the work done properly so it will last.

The 1931-built Schoolhouse Apartments originally had been constructed as New Canaans first junior high school, and it was built in a stylebrick, with a cupolathat complemented the original New Canaan High School (now the New Canaan Police Department), which opened in 1927(the same year Karl Chevrolet was founded).

Oestmann said DPW officials met with contractors and after the project went out to bid it garnered estimates that varied widelysome $20,000 between them. A company called FGS Masonry put in a bid for $29,800, which comes to $32,780 with a 10 percent contingency add-on.

First Selectman Rob Mallozzi and Selectmen Beth Jones and Nick Williams voted 3-0 in favor of the contract.

We are very comfortable with FGS Masonry to cover everything we want for that project, so the contract is actually contingent on us receiving all the funds and putting it into a special project [account], Oestmann said.

Jones urged the town to close the dedicated account as soon as it is done.

Williams asked whether the Schoolhouse Apartments building is one of the 40-plus town-owned structures being studied by a selectmen-appointed committee. Oestmann said yes.

So we are responsible as a town for that infrastructure. Williams said.

Oestmann responded that responsibilities are laid out in detail in the Schoolhouse Apartments lease with New Canaan.

But they have been very proactive in assisting us and not putting any big burdens on us, he said. We do gutter cleaning over there, we do minor repairs. We take care of everything for the daycare portion of the building.
