Today was a most interesting day. I was up and ready to go at 5. had my normal morning breakfast, 6 cups of coffee and a peanut butter sandwich, no jelly (bad jelly). Took care of Facebook and emails the shower and off to my first appointment. Had to come back home before I got there...forgot the keys to the office.
My meeting went really well. I believe I found a way for the group from Royalton to save about 10 grand on asbestos removal cost. Seems the type the had could be safely removed by the people themselves with out the use of a removal team, that is if I read the information correctly on the IEPA site. Their asbestos was only on the old heating pipes, No where else.I also told them about using HLS to help finance the refurbishing of the old gym into a community center since they also want to use it as a disaster center as well.
As for fund raising, the usual ideas bucket brigades, food, sales etc. I also recommended using the old bricks for a patio, selling them and having a stone cutter put names or dates on them, thus giving the community a stake in the work. Creating positive connections with the seniors and the youth were also discussed and I believe it may make a difference, I will let y'all know.
Next was moving the stuff from Herrin to my new office, I have most all of it there and will be getting a desk from a local office furniture dealer tomorrow. I should be up and running by the end of the day tomorrow.
I am still going to get some pics for everyone to see so they will have a better idea of where I am working, just need to find the time.
Y'all have a good one now ya hear.
