East Wall






Yesterday our siding crew finished up the front of the master bathroom then setup for the big wall on the East side. They told me this side would go quickly because of our decision to have no trim around the windows on that side. They did the entire wall in the afternoon.


Lynna & I went downtown & met with the City's Director of Planning to get more info on a proposed LID for street, sidewalk & water/sewer improvements on Tenth Ave. We had received a letter that said the proposed assessment was going to be $750-$850 per foot of frontage. We have a 200' frontage and were concerned. Don Adams, the Interim Director, was very helpful. He is just finishing up unresolved issues from the previous planner & the best way to deal with this was to let all the property owners know the cost info & see if the city would then move on to other business. Our sense is that all homeowners are against proceeding with the project.
Before they went home, the siders setup to do the North side of the house on Friday. This was the architectural "front" but we placed it to the side to get better solar orientation & to make optimal use of our site.
My arm still gives me a lot of pain & I have a Dr appointment on Wednesday for an assessment.
