House with Historic Character for Sale
by Bob Staresinic 07 May '21

07 May '21

My brother's house at 5800 Elgin St is for sale, with an open house this Sunday. https://www.coldwellbankerhomes.com/pa/pittsburgh/5800-elgin-st/pid_4119555… If you know anyone who would be interested in buying a house with historic character and charm, in our National Historic District neighborhood, let them know about this one. It has the original hardwood floors and lots of natural woodwork, the original windows (with newer storm windows), and a tile roof. It is a great house in a great location (across the back yard is Park Bruges) with a detached garage. I am sorry to see it leave the family.

Hi Folks, Would anyone by chance have little kids magazines hanging around that they would like to move along? HighFive, Ranger Rick Junior, National Geographic for Kids? I'd like to give my kindergartner a test run with them before I actually subscribe, just to see her level of interest. Thanks! Diana Bloss

by Ms. PYN 06 May '21

06 May '21

Good Morning Neighborhood Highland Park PA My name is Ms. Phyllis Y. Nettles, I am a 65-year-old great grandmother, raising my two great granddaughters Savanna and Makayla, 7 and 8 years old. We need to move from the house I have lived in for over 35 years, because it has been sold. Due to COVID-19 it has been very hard to find a new place for my family, therefore I am reaching out to my neighbors for help. The following is our Prayer List: 3-bedroom house (preferably ranch), living room, dinning room, kitchen, 2 bathrooms, one on first floor and one on second floor. Basement (preferably finished), yard (preferably fenced) and garage, in a nice quiet neighborhood. Rent ranges from $800. to $1,000, available now, preferably the least number of steps outside and inside. At the bare minimum I’d be happy with a 3-bedroom house. Please email me any leads you may have; all help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you all, have a Blessed and Healthy Day! Ms. Phyllis Y. Nettles412.224.3207

Fwd: Attention Renters! Assistance Available for Water and Wastewater Payments.
by Highland Park Community Council 06 May '21

06 May '21

PWSA encourages renters to apply for Allegheny County’s Emergency Rental Assistance funds. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 6, 2021 Media Contact: 412-430-3898 Attention Renters! Assistance Available for Water and Wastewater Payments PWSA encourages renters to apply for Allegheny County’s Emergency Rental Assistance funds [image: Young mother readying a story to daughters] Pittsburgh, PA - The Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority (PWSA) encourages renters responsible for paying their PWSA water and wastewater bill to apply for financial relief through the Allegheny County Emergency Rental Assistance <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001teAILaR7SWcEIS8j9WEeAJEzlMKdzSl2dZ2U-2LmYwDA…> fund. This program is part of the federal Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP), which began in March and is available right now to renters who are struggling to afford their rent and utility bills. “No one should have to choose between paying for water services and other essential expenses,” stated Will Pickering, PWSA Chief Executive Officer. “This funding specifically helps renters who are experiencing financial hardships caused by COVID-19 or other circumstances. Any renter who is having a difficult time keeping current with their PWSA bill should apply soon while funding is available.” A total of $37 million is available to provide families in Allegheny County and the city of Pittsburgh with necessary financial relief. The funding is available on a first-come first-serve basis and can be provided to a tenant for future rental and utility payments, and for unpaid rental or utility payments that have accrued since March 13, 2020. How do I qualify for assistance? To qualify, a household must pay rent and meet each of the following requirements. - One or more people within the household has qualified for unemployment benefits, had a decrease in income, had increased household costs, or experienced other financial hardship due directly or indirectly to the COVID-19 pandemic. - One or more individuals in the household can show a risk of experiencing homelessness or housing instability. - The household has an income at or below 80 percent of area median income. In Allegheny County, this equals $66,400 for a family of four. For more information about how median income limits <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001teAILaR7SWcEIS8j9WEeAJEzlMKdzSl2dZ2U-2LmYwDA…> apply to your household, visit the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services. Applicants will need to provide the following information: head of household’s personal information; income information for all household members 18 and older; rental lease and amount owed; landlord’s name and contact information. If applying for utility assistance, applicants must provide utility expenses and utility provider information. Apply quickly if you think you may qualify. The program ends when funding runs out. How do I apply for utility assistance? If you need help paying your PWSA water or wastewater bill, rent or any utility bill, you will need to go to covidrentrelief.alleghenycounty.us <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001teAILaR7SWcEIS8j9WEeAJEzlMKdzSl2dZ2U-2LmYwDA…> to complete an application and upload the required documents. Once you submit an application that requests help with utilities, someone from Dollar Energy Fund will contact you. Landlords may also apply on behalf of their tenants. You do not have to be late on rent or utilities to get assistance. Utilities can be paid as part of rent if you are responsible for reimbursing your landlord for utilities and this is stated in your lease. Make sure to submit that portion of your lease with the application and any bills from your landlord if the utilities are not a flat fee. What if I need help applying? A guide and FAQs on applying for utility assistance can be found on Allegheny County’s COVID <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001teAILaR7SWcEIS8j9WEeAJEzlMKdzSl2dZ2U-2LmYwDA…> relief website. If you don’t have WiFi, a computer, or need help completing the application, contact ACTION-Housing by calling (412) 248-0021. Drop-in centers with free WiFi and computers are also available. For more information, view Frequently Asked Questions <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001teAILaR7SWcEIS8j9WEeAJEzlMKdzSl2dZ2U-2LmYwDA…> or contact ACTION-Housing at (412) 248-0021 or by emailing rentalassistance(a)actionhousing.org. “These grants will help our customers who are renters struggling to meet basic needs.” Julie Quigley, Director of Customer Service for PWSA stated. “If you need assistance with past or future water and wastewater payments, contact ACTION-Housing to start the application process today.” The Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority is proud to be one of many organizations in Allegheny County participating in the Emergency Rental Relief Program. It is a collaborative effort including the Allegheny County Department of Human Services, City of Pittsburgh, ACTION-Housing, YWCA of Greater Pittsburgh, Urban League of Greater Pittsburgh and others. PWSA offers a variety of Customer Assistance Programs to help customers reduce their water and wastewater bill.
