Need suggestions for roofers who may be available
by THOMAS WATERS 18 Aug '16

18 Aug '16

With the recent rains, we have found we have some leaks, but the roofer we usually use is too busy to come and look at it. Looking for roofer recommendations of folks who may be available.

by Zone 5 Citizens Public Safety Council 18 Aug '16

18 Aug '16

Greetings, I trust that everyone is enjoying the summer. Recently Commander Lando sent an email announcing a special Town Hall Meeting for August 25 called by Chief McLay. *(Information included below) * The Commander has requested that Zone 5 Public Safety Council members serve as greeters and if possible I am asking for at least 5 members to volunteer to pass out and collect question and answer cards during the meeting. If you are interested in doing so please respond to this email. Please note that our next scheduled meeting is September 13 to be held injunction with the Union Project. Thank you for your dedication and for all that you do in and for the community. Diane I. Daniels ----------------------- The Pittsburgh Bureau of Police and Chief Cameron McLay will be hosting a series of "town hall-style" meetings in each of the police Zones. I wanted to reach out to each of you and extend an invitation to the meeting scheduled for Zone 5. At this meeting we will discuss crime stats, trends, and give an overview of our goals and efforts in the community. The rest of the meeting will be open for Q&A from our residents. The Zone 5 town hall meeting will take place on Thursday, August 25th, from 6:00pm until 9:00pm. The meeting will be held at the East End Cooperative Ministries, which is located at 6140 Station Street. (For those of you who are not familiar, I attached a map from the EECM website, below). Because space is limited, I would ask that you reply to this e-mail as soon as possible with your name and the number of people in your group.

Hi all, Anyone trying to get rid of a Florida Georgia Line ticket for August 27th at First Niagara Pavilion? I've searched multiple online sites and tickets are pretty pricey, even for the lawn. If you or anyone you know is willing to sell at a reasonable price, let me know! Thanks,Taylor L.
