FYI: If you hire a "contractor" or a "handyman" they have to be EPA Certified and you MUST have a copy or the actual certification on site. If the "person/contractor/handyman" is NOT certified You AND THE "person/contractor/handyman" will be fined so that money you so wanted to save could cost you a years wages! Any "person/contractor/handyman" that is not certified will be turned in and checked on as soon as complaint is received. These un-certified "people" that give you that "cheap" price are putting you and your family at risk by spreading Lead & Asbestos dust/particles etc for you and your family to take in and are "killing" the industry and you for the companies that are COMPLETELY Certified that can't give the "scab-non-certified" prices. The trainings, the standards, the materials that ensure that you will be safe cost money which are not cheap. I hope this will enlighten those of you to what the standards are out there and being enforced. So, when you are looking for a $100.00 paint job it might cost you $1000's in the end and possibly your health.

My car was broken into this morning on the corner of Jackson St and N St Clair St. Someone took a screw driver and broke my window. I do not usually keep ANYTHING of value in my car. Unfortunately, when I came home this morning my neighbors were having A LOT of late night guests and someone parked in front my home. I was forced to park around corner. So, I was a little aggravated to say the least & didn't unplug my music (my mistake and it will NEVER happen again). One of my nieghbors saw a man messing with my car. There were things taken from my car (money and my MP3 player is what I noticed right away).
I have lived in this neighborhood for over 20 years. Needless to say, I ready to move. I am so unhappy with how this neighborhood is now. I used to be so proud to say I live in Highland Park. It's really a shame to not feel comfortable in your own neighborhood. I would like to have camera's install to monitor the around my house. Does anyone know anyone who can install a camera system and best place to purchase it? Thank you in advance.
VERY DISGRUNTLED HIGHLAND PARK NEIGHBOR
