Anyone have experience/advice on who to contact for house settling? No outside cracks, just interior separation at ceiling & corners on one side.

[Highland Park] Question: Wildlife Control
by Michelle Wahila 22 Jun '07

22 Jun '07

Hello Neighbors, I have a serious groundhog situation in my back yard. Mr. & Mrs. Groundhog have devastated my garden in a matter of days. They are also getting very bold and would probably walk in my back door if they thought there were green veggies inside. Has anyone else had to deal with these pesky little critters? I would, if possible, prefer a humane control for the little guys. I have looked into some humane products, but cannot find them in the store. I need to have something safe to use near vegetables. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Michelle

Not for posting- I am currently getting doubles of all mail - not necessary! It seems that both copies come to kim(a)viehland.org -- I tried to "log in" with this mailing address and the password I saved from a year or so ago, but the system locked me out. When I asked to reset my password, it said my email address was unknown. Claudia K. Viehland (Kim) 412-362-0220/ cell 412-498-0226

I am planning for a longish bike trip with my son, and would like to try out a BOB Yak trailer on the trip before I buy one. Does anyone in the neighborhood have one that they would like to rent for a few weeks in early to mid July?

[Highland Park] Tonight's HPCC Meeting
by Michael M. Nadler 21 Jun '07

21 Jun '07

Hello neighbors – Yes, it is that time of month again to have our Highland Park Community Council Board Meeting and Presentations. We have had a really large amount of questions concerning the rebuilding of the track around the upper reservoir, so we have the director of the Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority, Gregory Tutsock, talking about the upcoming work. He shall be talking about what areas will actually be involved in the construction, as well as the potential time table. This will be affecting those who walk and jog around the track, as well as the noise volume up there during their work. Please understand that this is improving an area of our neighborhood’s draw, both for our residents, as well as from other neighborhoods to the Highland Park area. We will also have Toye Starver from the Union Project talking about their future applying for a liquor license there. I have been asked to pass on some stats on crime in our area, as well as concerns from another neighborhood nearby with the building of a halfway type of housing right on the borders of Highland Park. We shall start at 7:00 PM with the Board Meeting, so should you come in later than that please be considerate of the people presenting on projects that they are working on. The Presentation on the track should be around 7:30 PM, with the Union Project talking around 8:00 PM depending on the involvement and questions on items brought up earlier. Hope to see you there !!!

[Highland Park] Roving Art Cart Mosaic Mural TOMORROW at the Farmhouse
by Michael M. Nadler 21 Jun '07

21 Jun '07

Dear Neighbors – I have been asked to pass on this opportunity for our neighborhood children to be part of making the future mosaics that will be put up on the wall along One Wild Place above Kid’s Kingdom at the Pittsburgh Zoo and PPG Aquarium. This will allow people to actually help build the different mosaics that will be mounted on the wall after the completion rebuild that has already started. Public Works has already removed the old sidewalk and installed a storm sewer on the part of the road coming up around the bend. The wall shall follow suit, with the mosaic to be installed after all the work is completed. Citiparks is scheduling several dates for people to get involved, just like to tent that they set up at the Sweet 16 Rededication Ceremony for the Super Playground on Sunday, 09 JUN 07. Two dates have been listed below for the Farmhouse here in Highland Park to get the local kids (Yes, those young at heart can participate as well) involved in the making of a future landmark here in Highland Park. Any questions involving these activities should be addressed to Morton Brown’s contact information below. Mike Michael Millet Nadler President, Highland Park Community Council P.O. Box 5036 Pittsburgh, PA 15206 Personal Contact Information: 5916 Callowhill Street Pittsburgh, PA 15206, (412) 363-3483, Fax: (412) 363-2925, E-mail: mike(a)divehards.com Friday, June 22, 10am to 1pm and Friday, July 20, 10am to 1pm (more dates at the HP Farmhouse coming soon) Citiparks Roving Art Cart at Highland Park Superplayground Artists Laura Jean McLaughlin and Bob Ziller will be on hand with concrete figures that will go into the new mosaic mural for the "Zoo wall".

Come out, bring your kids and be a part of history in the making!
