In 1989, Andy Johnson stood atop his property at 3895 Tanglefoot Court in Bettendorf and inspected his three newly installed retaining walls built to halt erosion above Stafford Creek.

The night before, a heavy rainstorm washed away dirt he added to his walls. Slipping on the wet grass, Johnson said he flipped over his top retaining wall "head over heels" and fell onto the second wall before hitting his head and eventually landing on his feet beside the creek. Johnson, now 62, suffered a mild concussion.

Before investing hours of work and more than $5,000 into a rot-treated retaining wall, Johnson said he approached the city of Bettendorf for help.

I talked to the city and said, Hey, weve got this major problem, and asked if there was anything they could do for us, and they basically said there is no easement or property that belongs to them, Johnson said.

City Administrator Decker Ploehn said the city still does not own land along Stafford Creek, but Bettendorf staff has plans to remove vegetation to reshape the creek bed and install a retaining wall.

At this weeks city council committee-of-the-whole meeting, Bettendorf aldermen decided they would revisit the issue during the councils first meeting in May. Bettendorf homeowners along both sides of Stafford Creek near 18th Street remain divided about the future landscape of the banks.

Residents whose property abuts the southwest side of Stafford Creek on Tanglefoot Court hope the city follows through with the plans to curb erosion. On the other side, residents northeast of Stafford Creek on Kingsway Drive fear losing their privacy and want vegetation to grow without interference.

Currently, four property owners along Kingsway Drive are not willing to sign an easement, and three of the four have hired a Bettendorf lawyer. Meanwhile, three property owners along Tanglefoot Court, including Johnson, have signed the easement.

Bill McDonald, one of Bettendorfs 24 full-time, paid firefighters on the combination force, lives at 3915 Tanglefoot Court with his wife and three daughters. McDonald moved into his home 10 years ago and contacted the city when his retaining wall slowly began to sink and the slope leading down to the creek grew steeper.

Top 5 Best Rouge Decks April 2014 Format - Video

Gainesville, GA (PRWEB) April 17, 2014

Just Southeast of Dallas in Mabank, Texas, JM Martin Construction has been building, installing, and repairing/remodeling docks and marinas for 10 years. For this project, JM Martin Construction chose AridDek for its waterproof solution, low-maintenance, and durability.

Derek Holland of JM Martin Construction said, We love AridDek for its easy installation and the fact that the interlocking panels waterproof the deck below.

AridDeks innovative tongue-and-groove design creates a seamless, single layer surface from an integrated, hidden gutter system that channels water away from the structure. Because of this docking companies, such as JM Martin Construction, have been able to create and install finished wood ceilings without the need of extra layers of flashings and sealants.

In addition to simplified installation of finished wood ceilings for docks, AridDek customers are happy with the long lasting result of their docks. Our customers love AridDek for its low-maintenance and its long life span, says Holland.

For around the same price as a higher-end composite deck board AridDek provides dock owners with a low-maintenance aluminum walking surface that will not rust, warp, or decay over time.

Lafayette, IN (PRWEB) April 18, 2014

An inspection revealed that the mold problem in West Lafayette City Hall is worse than expected. A report from jconline.com dated April 17, 2017 relayed the details of it. Meanwhile, My Cleaning Products suggested two organic mold removal sprays to help the public prevent the same huge mold case.

According to the report, the inspection particularly discovered that there are two layers of drywall in the basement. It related that there was a space between the layers. That, as explained by Mayor John Dennis, provided a room for mold to grow.

The inspectors will deliver a detailed report about the problem by August, said the post. It stated that it will list the extent of the problem and the estimated cost of the repairs needed. Based on it, it relayed that the officials will decide to either renovate building or tear it down.

The report recalled that the mold problem at the city hall was first discovered in January. It added that it was vacated by the end of February due to high mold spores level.

Here is an excerpt from the said report.

West Lafayette City Hall's mold problem is more pervasive than anyone knew."

"The mold issue is a little more significant than what we originally anticipated," Mayor John Dennis said as he described an update from Tecton Construction, the consulting company that is determining the extent of mold in the building and providing the city with options.

The mold problem at West Lafayette City Hall could occur anywhere else, said My Cleaning Products. However, if one could get rid of the fungus early, a major mold problem could be prevented, it stated.

And so, to help the public do that kill mold early MCP advised everyone to stay alert of mold signs. Moreover, in order to be able to respond immediately to the confirmation of its presence, it told everyone to get help beforehand.
