Olive Branch police welcomes neighborhood ‘night out’ | News

A convoy of Olive Branch Police Department vehicles and motorcycles, along with a large department trailer , all blowing sirens and flashing red and blue lights “invaded” a number of city neighborhoods Tuesday night . The only suspects that the bevy of Olive Branch officers , led by Police Chief Don Gammage , were looking for were as many of the neighborhood residents as possible. The “invasion” was not done to put handcuffs on, but rather give handouts, as in drinks, chips and stuffed toys for the kids, all part of the department’s observance of National Night Out. Each year, law enforcement agencies across the country take time one evening to hold events that gets officers to the community to promote partnerships that make their cities safer. While some departments choose to hold their National Night Out in one place and invite the community to come to them, Gammage said he decided to take it on the road to the neighborhoods, instead. “We prepared ourselves by getting with the d...

This is why your rent will keep going up in San Diego

When it comes to getting new apartments built, San Diego is the 11th worst city in the nation, said a national study released Monday . Fifty cities were ranked on specific factors, including local regulations and land available for development, that were determined to be critical to construction by trade groups such as the National Multifamily Housing Council and the National Apartment Association . Honolulu was ranked the most difficult market for building new apartments, and New Orleans was the easiest. Research gathered by Florida-based think tank Hoyt Advisory Services for the trade groups looked at the Wharton Residential Land Use Regulation Index, a survey of regulatory laws, and a method of mapping developable land created by Sumner La Croix of the University of Hawaii. It also used the U.S. Census and other data and market research. In California, San Francisco was deemed the hardest to get new supply built at No. 8. Los Angeles was No. 12, Riverside No. 13, Sacramento ...

Glenside native Maddy Evans' retirement from playing soccer an example of ugly truth about NWSL salaries

Image
Women’s soccer fans who follow only the U.S. national team might not have heard of Maddy Evans, unless they knew of her when she was growing up in the Philadelphia region . But Evans’ name is very much one worth knowing, because her story says a lot about the present and future of the sport in this country. A 26-year-old product of Abington High and Penn State, Evans retired from playing last week after a five- year pro career . Among the reasons: She couldn’t earn enough money in the job to sustain a living. Evans’ salary this season with the Orlando Pride of the National Women ’s Soccer League was set to be approximately $16,000, just above the league minimum of $15,000. In previous seasons — with the Boston Breakers from 2013 to 2015 and the Pride after that — she received half that sum or less. Players are paid only during the time of year when teams are on the field. It’s a far cry from the glamorous lives led by the globa...

Power to the People (Solar Power, That Is)

Image
(Source: Sullivan Solar Power ) By Mark Hughes You may have heard the news: San Diego leads the country in kilowatts of solar panels installed , beating out LA and Honolulu — and by a lot. What’s going on? It’s like cell phones all over again. At first, just a few wealthy cranks have them, but before you know it, everyone and their kid has one. Was there a memo? Maybe this is you now: driving home from work, you can’t resist flicking a glance at the solar panel array on your neighbor’s roof and wonder yet again if they pay SDG&E anything. Or, you’re out for a walk and see that trim, shipshape house you’ve always admired now sports the increasingly fashionable blue/black panels. You put on a brave face, but it’s starting to eat at you: panel envy. The good news is that it’s nothing to be ashamed of and you’re far from alone. Pull up a seat, lie back, and let’s talk. Sure, you know all the valiant reasons for putting panels on your roof: a heroic reduction in greenhouse gas emissi...

River Terrace Apartments

Image
Quizzes Lists Topics Save The River Terrace Apartments is an apartment building located at 7700 East Jefferson Avenue in Detroit, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009. [1] River Terrace Apartments was one of the first two garden apartment complexes built in Michigan which used loan guarantees from the Federal Housing Administration , the other being Hillcrest Village in East Lansing. [2] History By the late 19th century , the corridor along East Jefferson Avenue had become a prestigious residential neighborhood . As the automobile age dawned in the twentieth century and Detroit's population boomed, large upscale apartment buildings were constructed along the Avenue. However, this boom in apartment construction collapsed at the start of the Great Depression. However, in 1939, Wesson Seyburn, along with Leonard P. Reaume, of the property management firm of Holden & Reaume, applied for a building permit to construct this apart...
