[Highland Park] Rooster and chicken accounted for
by Odell weiner 17 Mar '09

17 Mar '09

Thank you for your responses of help. And especially a big thanks to Joe Manow of Manow's on Mellon who notified me of the Animal Control. Two notes here. Firstly,I called Police about the incident and they did not know of the Animal Control acquiring the rooster and chicken. Secondly, is that a fee totaling 176 dollars per animal is charged. That includes, the court fee, the fine and something else. There is also the charge from the animal rescue league, of each day the animal is there. Again, thank you for your help in helping solve the problem. >From Odell Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2009 14:12:27 -0400 From: neighborhood-request(a)highlandparkpa.com Subject: Neighborhood Digest, Vol 65, Issue 40 To: neighborhood(a)highlandparkpa.com Send Neighborhood mailing list submissions to neighborhood(a)highlandparkpa.com To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://lists.highlandparkpa.com/mailman/listinfo/neighborhood or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to neighborhood-request(a)highlandparkpa.com You can reach the person managing the list at neighborhood-owner(a)highlandparkpa.com When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of Neighborhood digest..." --Forwarded Message Attachment-- From: cdh0(a)aol.com To: neighborhood(a)highlandparkpa.com Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2009 09:19:45 -0400 Subject: [Highland Park] Fence Building List Thanks to everyone who responded. Here's the list of recommendations for fence builders. (These are in no particular order, I'm just passing on the exact info that was sent to me) (1) Axel Claussen did my fence, it is awesome and I cant recommend him highly enough. You can come over and see it if you like, we live at 6413 Jackson. The fence is in the back, on the right if you are facing the back of my house. Axel: axel.claussen(a)gmail.com 412 362-5628 (2) You can call Gary Sciulli from "Gary Sciulli Landscape Construction" 412-462-9345 for building a fence. He has built fences for my clients as well as for myself. He is quite serious about what he does. I constantly have people ask me who built my fence. You may tell him that Dan Landis from Prudential Preferred Realty referred you. (3) North American Fence, located in Tarentum. The've done many fences in Highland Park and their bid was much less than Allegheny Fence. They will tell you what houses they did so you can take a look. (4) We used Sears many years ago (5) I am a Highland Park resident as well as a general contractor. If you would like me to give you an estimate, you can call me at 412-441-4240 or e-mail me at radsellner(a)comcast.net. (6) North American Fence did a great job for me...fast and neat. (7) My contractor is great! He does top o f the line work. Feel free to call Gary Schulz at 412-445-8485 (8) Three years ago Michael Howard Inc installed my stockade fence. I was & still am very satified. Michael Howard, Inc 174 Sandy Creek Rd 0 Verona, PA 15147 412-795-8721 Fax: 412-795-8721 (9) I used Bethlehem Wire and Fence, off Rt. 28, to install a wood fence last year. Their prices were very reasonable. (10) I used Affordable Fence ffom I believe Wexford. Had it installed over 10 years ago and it still is holding up like the day they installed it. I think they are still in business. Each post and picket was installed individually. --Forwarded Message Attachment-- From: lyncote(a)gmail.com To: neighborhood(a)highlandparkpa.com Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2009 10:13:05 -0400 Subject: [Highland Park] Free items I have several items up for grabs on a first come first served basis.

[Highland Park] Looking for Apartment to Rent
by Taryn Belmonte 16 Mar '09

16 Mar '09

Hello. My husband and I are looking for a Highland Park apartment to rent starting on August 1. Jason is a PhD student at CMU and I just graduated with my MS from Carlow University. We just got married last July. Jason is currently in Ireland doing research for his PhD. I am staying with friends. When he returns, I would love for us to have a cool place all lined up to move right in to. We are looking to pay around 550 - 750/month. We are very clean, nonsmoking, and responsible people. Thank you!! Sincerely, Taryn

[Highland Park] Mechanic?
by Julie Costa-Malcolm 16 Mar '09

16 Mar '09

I have a car that needs to be inspected - it's actually a little overdue, because my regular mechanic is in the North Side, and I just haven't been able to work out the logistics of dropping it off over there for the day. I'd love to have recommendations of good mechanics in and around Highland Park (or within a 15-minute, single-bus ride) that won't charge an arm and a leg. The car in question is a fairly old Dodge Stratus, if that matters. Thanks in advance, folks! Julie

The following places each got several positive responses: EEVMC (East End Veterinary Medical Centre), 5875 Ellsworth Ave, 412-361-5000 Pittsburgh Animal Hospital, Washington Boulevard, 412-661-9817 Point Breeze Vet Clinic, 6742 Reynolds Street, 412-665-1810 VCA Fox Chapel, 412-781-6446 Hart's Run Veterinary Clinic, 412-963-8889 Pittsburgh Spay and Vaccination Clinic, 110 Sandy Creek Road, 412-798-8770 I think there were a couple of others but they seem to have eaten by my inbox. Apologies if I missed anyone!
