Comment by Eleanor Coleman on April 18, 2012 at 2:02pm: I am meeting with Rich Warner of FLower City Work Camp made up of Christian youth church groups from all over Monroe County. Every year, this group fixes up about 60 city houses over the Easter School Break Week. Rich is looking to tie into a strong network to receive potential houses to be considered for fix-up. There is no cost to the homeowners who are accepted. Rich can be reached at 766-9858 or at richwarn@rochester.rr.com. Solicitations begin in October but I thought it might be a good idea to make a connection now so that we are clear on what the eligibility requirements are and are prepared to take advantage of this resource. Rich will also be sending me his info and I will be sending that out via the SW Community Roundtable Updates.

Comment by John Boutet on March 7, 2012 at 11:56pm: Attention: Book Lovers
The Housing Committee is meeting weekly to identify code violations in order to “spruce-up” our community. Members have been using their own money for postage and supplies.
In order to generate cash, we have set up a display with gently used books and are asking for a donation of only $1.00. Please take a minute to stop at the office, 216 Thurston Road, Tuesday through Thursday from 10:00-2:30 to check new titles. We have a donation cup if you happen to be there for a meeting and want to take a book home.
We would also appreciate your donation of one or two books in good condition to add to our collection. Titles will change weekly.
Thanking you in advance from the members of the Housing Committee.

Comment by Marian Boutet on January 10, 2012 at 12:08am: That's wonderful Linda! There are many elderly in the neighborhood on fixed incomes who could really use some help with maintenance issues like this one. If a whole block were to pitch in, great things could happen.

Comment by Linda Whittier on January 8, 2012 at 12:15am: Someone said that a block club worked to help people on a certain street who couldn't care for their property, like the elderly, etc. Well, I hope to help at least one house family with the purchase of a new door in the next few months.....
