[Highland Park] Re: Yard Sign Vandalized / Flier Posted
by Robert Tamburo 18 Jun '09

18 Jun '09

Political campaign signs are supposed to be removed 30 days after the election (Pittsburgh Code 919.03.F.1 **). Perhaps the state removed your sign. Although, I believe the standard protocol is to leave a notice rather than remove your property. ** http://library4.municode.com:80/default-test/template.htm?view=browse&doc_a… On Jun 17, 2009, at 12:01 PM, neighborhood-request(a)highlandparkpa.com wrote: > 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..." > Today's Topics: > > 1.

[Highland Park] Cat Sitter Needed for July
by Dawn Seckler 18 Jun '09

18 Jun '09

Dear Highland Park Parents: We are looking for an honest, responsible, and kind Jr. High or High School student to cat sit for the month of July. We have two very nice and easy-to-care-for cats. The cat sitter would need to be available to stop by at least once a day to feed the cats, spend time petting and playing with the cats in the backyard several times during the week, and clean the litter box every third day or so. If your student is ready for a low-key summer job, please have him/her call me at 412-977-0652 Thanks, Dawn

[Highland Park] Recommendations for retaining walls?
by Stacey Becker 17 Jun '09

17 Jun '09

I need to have a partially collapsed retaining wall rebuilt - probably from new stone, so it would be lovely if the same person could haul away the old stone and bricks, too. Any recommendations for someone who's done good work for you?
