    Police arrest father, son in driveway paving scam - March 13, 2015 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Howard County police have arrested a father and son in connection with a driveway paving scam that happened in Laurel in February.

    Police have issued an arrest warrant for a third suspect and are asking for the publics help to find him.

    Authorities said Paul Frank, 48, and his son, Spanky Frank, 19, were charged with four counts of selling home improvements without a license and acting as a contractor without a license.

    They were arrested Wednesday in Prince Georges County without incident. An arrest warrant has been issued for a third suspect, Ace Frank, 22, on the same charges. It is unknown if he is related to the other two suspects.

    While all three Franks have permanent residences out of state, police believe they have been staying at a home in the 8600 block of Contee Road in Laurel.

    In recent years, police and consumer affairs representatives have investigated scams for driveway paving services in which criminals complete substandard work or dont finish the job, charge higher prices than agreed upon or steal from the victims homes.

    In February, homeowners at four homes in Laurel -- three in the 9600 block of Baltimore Avenue, one in the 8600 block of Tower Drive -- were solicited by men later identified as Paul Frank, Spanky Frank and Ace Frank, for driveway re-sealing services, police said.

    In each case, the men charged higher than the agreed upon prices, the work was completed poorly and no receipt was provided.

    Investigators said the trio bought what appeared to be black paint at paint stores and then poured some gasoline into the black paint and used the mixture to reseal their customers' driveways.

    Detectives also learned that none of the Franks possessed contractor licenses as required by the State of Maryland.

    Police: Fake contractors in Laurel 'paved' driveways with paint and gasoline - March 13, 2015 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Howard County police arrested a father and son, and are searching for a third suspect, in a driveway paving scam in Laurel last month, officials said.

    Paul Frank, 48, and Spanky Frank, 19, painted driveways they were paid to re-seal with a mixture of black paint and gasoline, then charged higher than the agreed-upon prices and gave no receipts, police said.

    The two, and a relative, Ace Frank, 22, were charged with selling home improvements and acting as a contractor without a license after four homeowners complained to police and consumer affairs, police said.

    The homeowners, three in the 9600 block of Baltimore Ave. and one in the 8600 block of Tower Drive, said they were solicited by the men, two of whom were subsequently arrested on Wednesday in Prince George's County. An arrest warrant has been issued for Ace Frank, who is wanted on the same charges. All three have permanent out-of-state residences but had been staying in the 8600 block of Contee Road, police said.

    Spanky Frank was released from the Howard County Detention Center on $2,600 bond. Paul Frank was released on $10,000 bond. Neither had a lawyer listed in online court records, and no one answered at a phone number listed for the Contee Road home.

    Police asked residents to be wary of such scams and report them to law enforcement if they believe they have been victimized.

    Road improvement program moves forward in Newtown; township will spend $677,000 on repaving, repairs - March 13, 2015 by Mr HomeBuilder

    By D.E. Schlatter Digital First Media

    NEWTOWN TOWNSHIP >> About 1.8 miles of township-owned roads and streets will be getting a make-over this year with the board of supervisors sending the 2015 road improvement plan out for public bids.

    In a 4-0 vote at its March 11 meeting, Chairman Ryan Gallagher and Vice Chairman Mike Gallagher, along with supervisors Kyle Davis and Phil Calabro authorized the township to advertise the projects.

    Supervisor Jen Dix did not attend the meeting.

    According to township engineer Michele Fountain, the estimated cost of repaving, as well as replacing curbs, sidewalks and gutters, is $677,541.

    Of that amount, roughly $506,000 will come from the states allocation of Liquid Fuel Funds, and the remaining $170,000 will be paid from the townships general and parks and recreation funds.

    In all, there are 71.3 miles of township roads in Newtown, according to Fountain.

    She said that along with her own input, the roads were chosen with recommendations from the township manager and public works director.

    We whittled down the estimate to fit into the budget constraints, Fountain noted.

    Burgundy Lane from Hartford Lane to Yorkshire Drive and then from Yorkshire to Yorkshire will have gutter curbs replaced and sidewalks repaired.

    TRAFFIC ADVISORY: Road work in Sarasota-Manatee may cause detours, delays - March 9, 2015 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Published: Monday, March 9, 2015 at 1:00 a.m. Last Modified: Thursday, March 5, 2015 at 2:51 p.m.

    The Florida Department of Transportation advises drivers in Sarasota and Manatee counties that crews will be working this week at the following roads, where delays and detours may be expected:

    SARASOTA COUNTY

    Sarasota County Advance Traffic Management System (ATMS) Phase IV:

    Construction project: Sarasota County has contracted with Traffic Control Devises, Inc. (TCD), to upgrade the traffic signal controllers and equipment for 52 intersections throughout Sarasota County, City of Sarasota and the City of North Port. The improvements will consist of installing, integrating and testing the ATMS field elements, including traffic controllers and cabinets, Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras, and fiber optic communications cable and transmission equipment along the roadways. As part of this project, 10 intersections will receive full Americans with Disability Act (ADA) upgrades to meet current standards. Expected completion is spring 2016. Beginning Wednesday March 4, 2015, the contractor will begin the work of removing existing copper cable and existing pull boxes in order to install new fiber optic cable and newer pull boxes for the communications infrastructure for the countywide ATMS system. This work will start at Tuttle Road and 17th Street, moving in an easterly direction to Beneva Road. This work will also include removal of sections of sidewalk along the South side of 17th Street, and re-construction of the removed sections of sidewalk with the newly installed pull boxes. There will be construction equipment and personnel operating in the area. Motorists should use caution while traveling through this area and be mindful of the construction personnel and equipment. Appropriate sidewalk closures will be in place with detour directions. Minimal concrete dust will be present, but suppressed.

    I-75: From Sumter Boulevard to River Road: Construction project: This project expands I-75 to six lanes. Crews are clearing and placing embankment in the median, installing drainage, constructing ponds and placing sod on the outside shoulders, Monday through Saturday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., weather permitting. Expect nightly southbound inside lane closures between 9 p.m. to 5 a.m., from Monday, March 9 to Friday, March 13. Pay attention to traffic signs and barricades throughout the construction project, stay alert, and use caution in the work zone. Estimated completion is summer 2016. The contractor is Conalvias USA.

    Derry Area adds instructor for agriculture, horticulture - March 7, 2015 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Derry Area School District will be expanding its agriculture and horticulture program starting in the 2015-16 school year.

    School directors voted Thursday to add a second instructor to the department.

    The move to add an agriculture/horticulture teacher enables Derry to become one of only a few districts in the state offering the Curriculum for Agricultural Science Education, or CASE program, according to agriculture/ horticulture instructor and FFA adviser Roy Campbell.

    It's very significant for the school going forward, Campbell said. We're excited about all the new possibilities it's going to bring to the program. I believe it's going to bring a new level to the ag curriculum that's going to be based around STEM education, science, technology, engineering and mathematics. It's taking agriculture, which is really a science-based field, and using that as the basis of what the curriculum will be.

    The additional instructor will enable extension of the program to the middle school, with an eighth-grade program and middle-school FFA, Campbell said.

    We do have our tuition students who come in from other districts, so this may also be of interest to some students from other districts, Campbell said. This year I currently have seven students who give up their home school to come here (for the agriculture/horticulture program), so this may expand that also because we're offering more.

    The school board approved a revised calendar for the remainder of the 2014-15 school year, which would move the last day of instruction to June 5 and reduce the district's spring break by two days to make up for snow days, including Thursday's cancellation.

    School directors approved contracts for three capital projects, awarding the contract for resurfacing of the gymnasium floor to S&S Flooring for $35,400 and replacement of middle/high school pool lockers to Three Rivers Wholesale for $17,129.80. The middle/high school driveway paving project was divided into four areas for bidding purposes. Contracts for the project totaled $152,958 with a $13,050 contract to Murin and Murin, a $120,400 contract with Tresco Paving and two contracts totaling $16,928 with K. Dolan Construction for paving work and a contract of $2,580 with JR Paving for line painting.

    The board unanimously rejected a motion to approve Olds Engineering Consultants, Inc. as project engineer for HVAC renovations at Eastern Westmoreland Career and Technology Center at a fee not to exceed 5.5 percent of the project cost.
