A few people asked me to post the chimney repair recommendations I received, so here they are: 3 people recommended American Chimney and Fireplace ( https://americanchimneyandfireplace.com/index.html) (this place received the most enthusiastic recommendations of the bunch) 2 people recommended Comfort Living Fireplaces, which both noted is family-owned 3 people recommended Hearth and Home Furnishings in Zelienople 2 people recommended The Fireplace and Patio store. One person noted that they only install logs, but do not fix the gas line 2 people recommended Ed's Woodshed 1 person recommended Black Knight Chimney (for chimney work, not sure whether they do gas logs) 1 person strongly suggested NOT using Advance Chimney Sweeps Hope this is useful, EM -- Erin Marie Williams-Hatala, Ph.D. Associate Professor of Biology Chatham University Pittsburgh, PA *Office:* 226b Buhl Hall *Phone*: 412-365-1194 *pronouns: *she & her

Health Problem at 5824 Jackson St
by richard＠vision-and-values.com 26 Aug '21

26 Aug '21

Some of you undoubtedly know that the resident at 5824 Jackson St. recently died. The body was removed from the house last Sunday. He had been there quite a while. The property has been secured and condemned. The problem now is that the house is apparently still filled with garbage, and the rats are having a party in there. Various neighbors have contacted 311, the police, building inspection, animal control, and Deb Gross' Office. My understanding is that the garbage is still in there. Is there any was to expedite the removal of the garbage and the placement of rat traps inside the house? HPCC please help!

Hello to all. I am writing to ask your help on behalf of a single mother with two young daughters who needs help paying her utility bills and car insurance. The family has been severely impacted by the pandemic as the mother is a waitress who is working only 10-15 hours a week due to the pandemic. Any extra monies raised will be used to purchase modest back-to-school supplies for the girls. This request is part of a Neighbors in Need program administered by the Bloomfield-Garfield Corporation. Since its launch, we have helped 250 East End families (including Highland Parkers) who face a financial crisis with little to no resources and alternatives. Please click here for a donation page <https://www.grapevine.org/nonprofit/nqSZQZ7/Support-a-Single-Mother-in-Need > , if you'd like to help.
