By BRIAN GRAVESBradley County Mayor D. Gary Davis said there is a silver lining in the cloud of smoke and soot which has caused the Bradley County Courthouse to cease operations on-site and have its services farmed out to three different locations.Davis spoke to the Cleveland Lions Club on Wednesday about the Sept. 30 fire and its remnants, which the mayor said has caused a “huge” cleaning bill.Before his remarks, Davis told the Cleveland Daily Banner the final cost is still yet to be determined because some of what is now being done was already planned as part of the courthouse renovation.“A lot of work has been going on at the courthouse,” Davis said.“The HVAC system was running at the time of the fire, and it took the smoke and soot throughout the building,” he said. “Every single inch of the building is covered in that black soot.”He noted electrical fires put the soot on everything “and every piece of paper in there.”“Everybody makes fun of the courthouse, but it’s a well-built, concrete box,” Davis said. “The fire was main...

The world has changed. It’s not 1990 and we have to do what’s right for our kids.”Belmont resident Mark Davis said PAYT has the added benefit of reducing the amount of trash that is burned and puts carbon into the atmosphere.“We meter water and electricity. Why wouldn’t we meter garbage,” said Claus Becker, Precinct 5 Town Meeting member. (Wicked Local Belmont)
She said they were part of a broader effort to respond to citizen concerns about the Harlem Park neighborhood, where a second 15-year-old boy, Tyrese Davis, also was killed last month.“What are we doing here? It’s the obvious,” Briscoe said. “It’s all hands on deck. We all have a responsibility to public safety.”Across the street, blue balloons in Jeffrey Quick’s memory hung half-deflated along with a stuffed bear from the side of a corner store. Burned-down candles stood on the sidewalk next to empty liquor bottles.“Love you baby boy,” read one message scrawled on the wall.“At the end of the day, we’re all going to be held — and we should be — accountable and responsible for the work that we’re doing out here in the community,” Briscoe said. “So where there’s public safety issues, and systemic ones, we want to take a different, holistic approach. We want to kind of step back from a different lens and look at all of the challenges that a community is faced with and figure out as a city entity how we can come together and partner and collaborate to address those problems.”a class="trb_video_embeddedvideo_a" data-role=" mediamanager_trigger" id="94666846" data-video-attributes="{"muted":"false","player_id":"ByVQN3G8","player_id_mobile":"SkTRzLqY","url":"/news/maryland/crime/94666846-132.html","type": "brightcove", "as": "true", "le": "/common/video-errors.xml", "section_name": "video","sub_type":"premiumvideo","video_id":"5582215460001","vidcontent":"Crime","videoOwner":"Baltimore Sun","videos":"Lawsuit, indictment detail alleged false imprisonment, theft of Carroll County couple by Baltimore g/94666846/Baltimore Sun", "content_item_type": "","omniture_server": "", "omniture_account": "", "width": "900", "height": "506","account_...

Then, the cleanup began Tuesday. San Marco resident Charlie Davis, who was out of school, was helping with the hard work of cleaning up the damage that was done by Irma. Luckily, Davis said, he was not home when his house flooded. "We knew that the water would get super high, so we actually went over to my grandparents' house. We came back today and it was our first day back," he said. "It was, like, crazy. There must have been a lot of water back here." The cleanup continues at each and every home, because each home tells a different story, after hurricane floodwater swept through the San Marco area. Irma's wrath was felt across the city, including in Mandarin, where cleanup was also underway Tuesday. Floodwaters damaged properties, and some people had waters reaching knee-deep in their neighborhood and pouring into their homes. The Regans said they've never seen flooding like this before. But handwritten letters Jeff Regan's father wrote him while serving in the Navy somehow survived the flooding that damaged his home. "He died at 47, so it's something I've kept for a long time, and for my kids, too," Jeff Regan said. "I never dreamed that it would flood but I feel pretty fortunate that most of these letters came though." He and his wife, Kathy Regan, said 8 inches of water flooded their Mandarin home. "I was devastated in the morning when I woke up and saw it," Kathy Regan said. "I mean, the tides were so high. The water was at my house and the water was in my garage, living room ... Ot was just one thing ...
