TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - The Arizona Corporation Commission is reducing incentives provided by Tucson Electric Power Cop. for residential rooftop solar installations to generate electricity or heat water.
The commission also is eliminating Tucson Electric's incentives for commercial customers' renewable energy generation, according to the Arizona Daily Star.
Commissioner Gary Pierce says the cuts approved Wednesday are justified because the costs of systems are dropping and because ratepayers need to be protected from rising costs of the state's renewable energy program.
The commission increased by $5 million Tucson Electric's spending for renewable energy under a state mandate for utilities to gradually increase their use of solar and other renewable sources.

How to Expand Your Customers' Payment Options Without Breaking the Bank
September 11, 2012 | Posted By: Amy Nielson | Categorized in: Finance, Shopping
Plastic is quickly becoming the preferred currency, but while it's convenient for shoppers around the globe, it's not as cost efficient for business owners. They need special bank accounts in order to accept electronic payments, and the initial investment in credit card kiosks and other fees can make it prohibitively expensive for smaller operations. Worse still, it may soon be necessary to upgrade that equipment in order to keep up with technology that will allow people to charge items to their cards through smartphones. Money is becoming woven into the online world, and business owners need to find ways to prepare for it without breaking the bank.
Merchant AccountsThere's no getting around it; merchant accounts are a must for business owners. They're becoming less necessary thanks to companies like PayPal, but anyone who offers services offline in any capacity needs a merchant account in order to accommodate consumers.
Picking the right account is a very complicated affair. There's more variation within that segment of the market than there is with nearly any other financial product. There are monthly service fees, transaction fees, monthly quotas and a host of other things that each company handles in its own unique way. Some of the key questions that need to be asked are:
There are far more things that need to be considered; new business owners should take their time and do a lot of research before coming to a decision. There are excellent deals to be had, but it takes some digging to find them. It's crucial to learn about interchange-plus pricing.
Saving Money on HardwareOnce a merchant account has been established, a business owner will want to purchase a credit card terminal. This normally runs a few hundred dollars, but the cost can be almost be eliminated with a smartphone and a subscription service. Companies like Square offer business owners the ability to turn their smartphones into portable credit card terminals through the use of inexpensive dongles. This can lead to huge savings for small business owners, and it likely reflects what even large corporate chains will do down the road. Someone who goes this route is ahead of the curve, and his business will only benefit for it.
E-Commerce AlternativesEveryone knows about PayPal. It's partnered with eBay, and it's been a favorite for electronically transferring funds for around a decade. It provides an inexpensive way for someone to start an online business, and while it's not an ideal long-term solution for businesses that operate exclusively on the Web, it's perfect for anyone that can't raise large amounts of capital.
PayPal also offers a way to expand payment options through its mobile app. Smartphone users can do everything on their phone that they could do at a laptop or a desktop, and it offers additional features like the ability to make purchases on Amazon. Any business owner with a smartphone should not be caught without it.
Future TechWhile cellphones that can serve as credit cards are still a long way from becoming commonplace, the first steps have already been taken in that direction. This is something that a new business owner should keep in mind. If he invests in a credit card terminal right now, he may have to replace it just a short time later. He stands to save a lot by either utilizing a smartphone during the technological transition or by using smartphone exclusively in the present day and in the future.
The Ideal Solution is Tailored to Individual NeedsNo two businesses are exactly alike, and it takes a wide variety of tools to keep costs down. The most important thing is finding a good deal on a merchant account, but aside from that, leveraging PayPal and smartphones is the surest way to cut down on fees and maximize profits. Technology has already given business owners everything they need to become more prosperous than ever. They just need to use the tools available to them.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Cold War Street
Between 1974 and 1989 I visited both USSR and USA twice. I used the opportunity to make photographs of day-to-day life in the streets of the two superpowers.
In 1980, during Brejnev stable period, I travelled from Moscow to Kazakhstan and Siberia. Eight years later USSR was under the Perestroika effect and the signs of transformation were clear. Then I travelled from Moscow to Leningrad and Kiev.
My first trip to the USA took place in 1974. I spent August there, driving from New York to Florida, just at the time of Nixon's resignation. I went again in 1989, the year marked by the fall of the Berlin Wall. Then I stayed in California and Nevada for a while.
USSR was dismantled in 1991, twenty years ago, and Cold War started to fade away.
I decided to publish my images of USSR and USA, side by side, even if they are not an exhaustive or systematic comparative collection.
I just want to provide a pleasant viewing experience. For older people, will bring about memories and, for the younger, will raise questions.
I hope.
Fernando Penim Redondo, Lisbon, Portugal.

"It was my great pleasure once again to travel with your wonderful company. It was a very enjoyable and interesting trip, so well organised and catered for. We live in a beautiful country and to travel with Outback Spirit is the ideal way to see and experience the vastness of this country of ours. I would not travel within Australia with any other company, after my second Outback Spirit experience proved to be just as fantastic as the first."
Have you travelled with Outback Spirit before? We'd love to hear from you.

The Sugar Bowl matchup for 2012 is official, according to Stewart Mandel of SI.com. The Michigan Wolverines will take on the Virginia Tech Hokies.
Mandel also reports that the Sugar Bowl may have passed on at least two top 10 teams in order to select Virginia tech and Michigan.
The Sugar Bowl is one of the oldest bowls in college football as it was first played on New Year's Day in 1935, trailing only the Rose Bowl which began annual play in 1916. The game has racked up quite a bit of history since its inception, too, having hosted the BCS National Championship game in 2000 and again in 2004.
The 2011 Sugar Bowl featured the Ohio State Buckeyes defeating the Arkansas Razorbacks with a 31-26 final score, but that victory has since been vacated by Ohio State due to a scandal at the school. Terrelle Pryor also ended up losing his MVP award from that game, keeping him from joining a Sugar Bowl MVP class that has included Tim Tebow, JaMarcus Russell, Jason Campbell and Ken Dorsey in the past.
Game date, time: 8:30 p.m. ET on Tuesday, January 3, 2012
Location: Superdome in New Orleans, La.
TV channel: ESPN
2011 winner and loser: Ohio State, Arkansas

CHALMETTE, La. – A man accused of using a machete to commit two robberies was arrested early Tuesday morning near his mother's home in Marrero, according to the St. Bernard Parish Sheriff's Office.
Dicarlo Young, 35, who had already served time in prison for manslaughter according to the sheriff's office, was booked with two counts of robbery.
Sheriff-Elect James Pohlmann said that on March 20 a man with a machete and who was wearing a red bandanna or scarf on his face, entered a business in Arabi and robbed an employee of his wallet.
Pohlmann also said Young used a machete to rob a man who was using a video rental box near Paris Road and West Judge Perez Drive in Chalmette just after midnight Tuesday.
The victim said the man was wearing a black-hooded sweatshirt and demanded his wallet before taking off in a gray Jeep Cherokee with a temporary license plate.
Young was apprehended after Jefferson Parish officers were asked to make a check at his mother's home in Marrero.
Pohlmann said the machete hasn't been recovered but that a red bandanna was seized from an apartment that Young shared with a woman. Pohlmann said the woman stated that Young did own a machete.

In the wrong hands, that poignancy could easily turn sentimental, but with Brennet's deft touch the songs have an edge, a rawness and a gritty realness. Since 2002 she's self-produced 7 CDs, her most recent released in May of 2009. In addition to her songwriting, Brennet has also written several commissions, as well as scoring two plays, Boy (2008), and an adaptation of The Odyssey written by Pulitzer-Prize winner Derek Walcott. Her music has also been featured in the upcoming documentary Out in the Silence. ______________________________________________________________________ With a humble upbringing in a struggling working class family, becoming something other than ordinary was not celebrated or encouraged.

The first period of Game 1 of the second-round series between the Chicago Blackhawks and the Detroit Red Wings ended in a 1-1 tie.
The game was physical early, beginning with Justin Abdelkader and Michal Rozsival coming together in the corner. Abdelkader gets the worst of it as his head feels the wrath of both the boards AND Rozsival's stick:
Abdelkader would miss a few shifts before returning to the game.
Marian Hossa scored the opening goal of the game on the power play on Chicago's third shot of the game:
But Detroit would strike back less than two minutes later with this goal from Damien Brunner:
Andrew Shaw took two penalties in the period, both against Jakub Kindl. This is his second one, which was called boarding, but was really more of a crazy accidental flying elbow:
The Chicago penalty kill continued to be dominant this post-season, and Detroit failed to score on both of their power plays. The shots were 7-6 in favor of the Red Wings at the end of the period.

• Complete Stanley Cup Playoffs coverage
• Are the Sens now 'Canada's Team?'

Former bodega worker Pedro Hernandez's arrest prompted a flurry of new activity in the Etan Patz case last year but prosecutors are now back to square one.
Pedro Hernandez was arrested in 2012 after police heard that he confessed to doing something bad to Etan Patz. He quickly confessed to the child's murder once in custody. Now his lawyer argues that the confession not only contains questionable claims, but was the result of more than seven hours of grilling by police of his mentally unstable client.
Etan Patz disappeared in 1979 and has never been seen since. Almost to the day 33 years later NYPD arrested Pedro Hernandez in connection to the kidnapping. Hernandez had never been seen publicly since the arrest. Until yesterday.
After nearly 25 years in prison Jose Antonio Ramos, the former prime suspect in the Etan Patz case, who was convicted on unrelated charges of child molestation in Pennsylvania, is set to go free. Meanwhile prosecutors in New York have not indicated publicly if they have enough evidence to pursue a murder conviction against suspect Pedro Hernandez.
Late last month, Pedro Hernandez – the confessed killer of 6-year-old Etan Patz back in 1979 – was moved to Riker's Island from his bed in Bellevue Hospital's psychiatric ward. But that doesn't mean Hernandez is in a right state-of-mind, and it certainly doesn't make this an open-and-shut case for prosecutors.
Police returned to continue the search at the site of the market where Pedro Hernandez claims to have killed Etan Patz. No announcements have been made.
Pedro Hernandez's confession to the murder of Etan Patz is only the beginning of what is sure to be an arduous legal process.
The arrest of Pedro Hernandez and his subsequent confession announced on Thursday may mark the beginning of the end of the mystery that surrounds the 1979 disappearance of 6-year-old Etan Patz.
New York police made an arrest late Wednesday night in the case of 6-year-old Etan Patz, who disappeared from a SoHo street in 1979.

A visit to the West End Gardens, on Morecambe Promenade between the Battery and Regent Road, offers a welcome place to relax and enjoy amazing sculptures and views across the bay, whilst children can play in the three exciting play areas.
The water fountains are a great feature of the plaza area where various events and performances take place throughout the year.
Four sculptures designed on the natural elements of earth, wind, fire and water are spaced around the gardens:
There is also a 10m high sculpture on a fishing theme entitled 'The Hook', depicting a stylised fishing rod cast out to a pool full of sea creatures.
Why not enjoy a picnic using one of the many picnic tables and benches provided? Take a walk around the meandering pathways around the attractive planting or just sit and take in the stunning bay views.
The West End Gardens are well located on the Promenade, near to car parks and the beach, with public toilets on site. The designer café 'Breeze' offers a good election of quality food and drinks, sourced locally. Look out for some unusual ice cream flavours!
The gardens are a short walk along the Promenade from the Stone Jetty. Cyclists can ride along the Promenade, so leave the car at home and cycle to the West End Gardens.
There are three self contained play areas with challenging and exciting equipment designed for specific age groups of under 5 years, 5-10 years and11-14 years. The play areas are bright and colourful with seating provided.
The plaza area close to the play areas features more seating, and the fun interactive water feature, which is spectacularly lit in the evening.
The creation of the West End Gardens is a truly innovative approach to community involvement. After initial stages of public consultation, a project group made up of local residents, councillors and officers worked together to oversee the redevelopment work.
The five pieces of public art were designed by pupils from Heysham High School with help from public artist Stephen Broadbent and local primary school pupils who designed the sea creatures in the pond at the bottom of 'The Hook'.
An opening carnival took place for local residents to thank them for their enthusiastic help in redesigning the area.

vacation rental description
Everything is just a little bigger and better at our corner unit in oceanside Cinnamon Beach 555. From the extended patio with its breathtaking views of the Atlantic to the sunny breakfast nook to the 3 full bathrooms, this wifi beachfront condo gives you more.
You'll notice the difference as soon as you step into our living room. One entire wall is sliding glass doors with a breathtaking ocean view. A long, plush sofa (which converts to sleep 2), matching loveseat, and overstuffed easy chair are grouped in this light, airy room, facing our large LED HDTV. The décor is relaxed and home-like (Snoopy is your mascot!), with a separate nook for reading or setting up the pak-n-play for long naps.
The dining area is similarly roomy, seating 6 at our glass-topped table. A contemporary chandelier illuminates the table while natural light pours in from the large window. It's a lovely place to dine . . . if you can tear yourself away from those al fresco meals on the patio, that is!
Just beyond the dining area is our thoroughly modern kitchen. Pebbledashed granite countertops, black appliances, and polished wood cabinetry create a beautiful setting, lightened by creamy walls and taupe tile. We've got everything here you need to prepare a feast. And if you just want to eat out on this vacation? The microwave, icemaker, blender & keurig may be all you really use, but it's good to know there's everything from corkscrews to colanders should you need them.
The open-plan design of the living, dining, and kitchen areas promotes togetherness, but for those quieter moments, retire to the sun-drenched breakfast nook. Filled with natural light, this corner area has a round table just for 4. You may find that it's the perfect place to play a loud game of Taboo that won't disturb the gang watching the game on TV, or to catch up on your social media using our free wireless Internet. It's just a bit of extra space, one of the touches that makes Cinnamon Beach 555 so special.
Of course, the ultimate getaway is the master bedroom, decorated in muted tones to induce relaxation. Our king-sized bed is very comfortable, and from it you can see the ocean and vast blue sky. There is plenty of space in here to make yourself at home, and the new 32" LCD TV delivers your favorite shows and late-night news.
The en suite master bathroom is wonderfully decadent, with a bubbly Jacuzzi as well as a step-in shower. If you find yourself taking longer than usual to get ready in the morning, blame it on the whirlpool!
Each of the other two bedrooms has its own full bathroom as well. One room, painted in sea blue, contains a queen bed and LCD TV. The other, boasting lilac walls, has two twin beds, a new LCD TV with DVD player, and a desk. Both are spacious and comfortable, completely separate so that all the kids can get a good night's sleep before another exciting vacation day.
For those rare moments when you simply must do a chore, our utility room contains a full-sized washer and dryer. Like the kitchen, you may wish to visit it as little as possible, but it does come in handy when you've run out of dry towels for the beach!
And our condo doesn't end there. Our extra-long oceanview patio may just become your favorite spot! Swivel chairs and lounger let you feel that sea breeze and listen to the surf in style. Cinnamon Beach is just yards away, with its unique crushed coquina-shell sands. Right next to the Ocean Hammock resort is the renowned Ginn Hammock Golf Course, and behind it is the Intracoastal Waterway, with inlets and nature trails to explore.
But before you rush off, explore Ocean Hammock a bit. It features a large heated pool with an ocean view and separate spa, a waterpark area for kids, a fitness center, and a game room complete with pool table. This gated community is safe, beautifully landscaped, and well maintained. You'll feel right at home immediately!
At Cinnamon Beach 555 you're close to historic St. Augustine, Marine Land, and the European Village. Orlando is just 90 minutes.

North End liquor store under new ownership
PLATTSBURGH — A long-time North End business has a new owner with plenty of first-hand experience in its day-to-day operation.
Michael Mousseau re-opened K & M Discount Liquor and Wine (formerly L & M) on Sept. 11. Mousseau said he has worked at the business, located at 314 Margaret St in the City of Plattsburgh, since 1985, the year he graduated from Plattsburgh High School.
He bought it from former owner Mickey Serra, who had the business for 16 years until he decided to retire.
"The driving force behind it was the location," Mousseau said.
Patrons welcome reopening
It is a high-traffic area, at the intersections of Margaret Street, Boynton Avenue, Sailly Avenue and Cumberland Avenue. K & M is also the only liquor and wine shop in the North End of the city, which saves many a trip up Route 3 or to the south end of the city.
A number of customers have told him how pleased they are the store has reopened.
"It's been an institution on this end of town," he said. "The response has been tremendous. Everybody loves it."
The store was closed as Mousseau waited for his liquor license from the New York State Liquor Authority. He sent the application in April and received the license on Aug. 18.
That gave Mousseau and Assistant Manager Corey Morrow time to renovate the store with new wooden wine racks and restained shelves. They also increased the visibility through the windows around the north and west sides of the store.
"We've made it much brighter," Mousseau said. "It's actually a joy to come to work every day."
The store presently has a number of Halloween-themed decorations. His fiancee, Kateri Pyke, is in charge of decor.
Her first initial is why the store is now K & M Discount Liquor and Wine.
Inventory restocked
Once the license was in hand, Mousseau was able to place orders and restock the inventory.
Mousseau said he focuses on value-priced wines, mainly from California but also some foreign vintages. He said $15 and under seems to be the price point preferred by about 80 percent of his wine customers.
Wine making has really advanced in the last 10 years, which has led to higher quality wines at lower prices.
"You can get a good bottle for under $10," Mousseau said.
Box wines have become increasingly popular. They are extremely convenient as you can get a box, throw it in the refrigerator and it will last for weeks.
On the liquor side, vodka is the big seller, whether it is regular or flavored. Mousseau said vodka outsells all his other products by a four-to-one margin.
He said he prefers tequila, so he's trying to bring in more premium varieties of that.
"I don't think that was properly addressed before," Mousseau said.
He has stayed with what sold well before the change, but said he's willing to listen to customer requests going forward.
"We want to accommodate as many regulars as possible," Mousseau said.
Discounts offered
K & M offers a 20-percent discount on case sales, whether paid by cash or check. He said that is one of the highest discounts in the area.
Lottery sales will return soon, Mousseau said.
Payment is by cash or credit card. There were too many issues with bad checks to continue to accept those.
K & M Discount Liquor and Wine is open from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday and noon to 6 p.m. on Sundays.
Sunday business has increased every week since he reopened. Mousseau said they also get a lot of Canadian customers, and they seem to be staying in the area later this year.
"That's good to see, too," he said.
Mousseau said he really appreciates the store's long-time customers, especially those who have come back once he reopened.
"That's what drives the business. They have been very encouraging," he said. "It's nice to hear that."

Featuring a unique variety of ceremony, reception and dinner locations, The Chanler's facilities are able to handle weddings of 100 guests or more with ease, and with the use of a tent can can even accommodate parties as large as 200.
Featuring three distinct outdoor lawns with the most breathtaking ocean views in Newport, each bride is sure to find the perfect location for their outdoor wedding ceremony.
'Cliff Lawn', offering the most stunning views Newport has to offer, directly overlooks Cliff Walk and the Atlantic Ocean. 'Meadow Lawn', perched higher above Cliff Lawn and The Chanler, also provides breathtaking ocean views, while allowing the grace and elegance of the mansion to come into view. For those looking for something a little more private, our 'Woodland Lawn' provides a unique wooded landscape secluded at the top of the hill with limited views of the ocean and mansion.
With the backing of the world-class culinary creations of the Spiced Pear restaurant, wedding receptions and dinners at The Chanler are about more than just the elegant mansion and breathtaking views. Receptions and Dinners are often held on our ocean view Cliff Walk Terrace, or for smaller groups in the Spiced Pear or The Veranda. For even larger or more private weddings, we offer the option of having a private buyout of the property the day of your wedding.
The Chanler specializes in weddings of up to 120 guests, offering reception space throughout several different rooms and spaces within the mansion. For weddings of more than 120 guests, we can accommodate your party as a tented event on our oceanfront lawn. For larger weddings, some or all of the guest rooms may be required.
The following floor plans will give you an idea of the locations available at The Chanler at Cliff Walk. Guest capacities are subject to change based on the individual requirements for your party.
For more information about holding your wedding at The Chanler at Cliff Walk, fill out our information request form.
Due to the historic nature of our building, most rooms have some irregularity to their shape; listed dimensions are the minimum rectangular space available.

I am a teacher at a highschool for our communications class. We have two classes during the day and two classes during the late afternoon. Within the next month or so I wanted to touch on sirens and strobes and how they operate.
I've made several 'real life' diagrams in the past on a large display board of blinker/headlight/breaklight circuits, horns, etc and I thought it would be interesting for the class to see how simple a siren is operated. I hope to do the same display 'diagram' for the siren as I did in the other lesson plans in the past. I have one siren already hooked up in the class. It's a galls MS3000. Very basic configuration. Now, I want to beef it up a notch and show them a more complicated setup so they can learn what's currently out there. I really don't know anything about the SS2000 besides a few little details here and there. So I have a few questions. My plan is to make one with a stand-alone siren (amp, control head, etc.) and THEN upgrade from that to one with a few strobes. (I'll just use a few 1'' hideaway strobes to simulate a lightbar or something along that nature.)
1) I have the amp for it, but nothing else. No wires, no control head, etc. I'm going to buy the control head off of ebay, and try my best to get the cables. Those all seem pretty self explanatory. BUT I noticed this little square box on the back with a lot of pins and above it, it says "SIREN". What connects to this?
2) "+ BATT". This looks like a little port to plug something in. Obviously this is the port to supply power but it looks like a special plug is needed. What type of plug?
3) For the "LIGHTS 1, 2, 3" switch - On the back I see the port that goes in there but it looks like another special adapter has to plug in there to hold the wires down. If so, what part is that?
If anyone can help me with these questions I really appreciate it. I'm no expert!
Thank you.

TRIVOLI, Ill.--A fire in Trivoli has left one family without a home.
Logan-Trivoli Fire Chief David Tuttle described the scene, "The flames started in the garage and quickly spread to the rest of the house."
The house is located at the corner of Locust St. and S. Trivoli Rd.
After two hours, firefighters were still working to put out the blaze.
Chief Tuttle said that once the fire is extinguished completely, crews will go through and salvage anything they can.
"We got a report of a garage fire around 12:13 this afternoon," said Chief Tuttle. "Reported that the garage was attached to the house. When we arrived on the scene, the garage was fully involved extending into the house and attic area."
None of the residents, including a pregnant mother, were injured. However, one firefighter did sustain minor injuries.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.

06 June 2011
Posted in Our Planet, Our Universe
On June 1, this year's second partial solar eclipse overcame the midnight sky over the Arctic Circle. Also visible from parts of Alaska and Canada, the eclipse began at sunrise in Siberia and northern China at 19:25 UT, ending about 3.5 hours later north of Newfoundland in the Atlantic Ocean. Another partial solar eclipse is set to grace a small area in the Antarctic Ocean on July 1. A fourth and final partial solar eclipse will also occur November 25 over the southern land of midnight sun.
According to dictionary.com, solar eclipses are the obscuration of the light of the sun by the intervention of the moon between it and a point on the earth. These are beautiful astronomical phenomena, but can be dangerous to look at directly without proper eye protection. But, how can a solar eclipse be seen at midnight you ask? After all, at night time wouldn't it be a lunar eclipse? Usually it would, but because of the location of the eclipse, in the Arctic Circle, during the time of the year, the sun is visible even at midnight, making a solar eclipse at midnight possible. Just another of nature's beautiful oddities!

"I'm in the middle of reading Alice Munro's Dear Life. I have read and admired every one of her short story collections. She is such a master observer of human nature and so skilled in the short story form that in a single story she gives the reader the impression of having just read an entire novel about the characters' lives. As a writer, I am constantly learning from her and of course celebrated with the rest of the world when she won the Nobel Prize."
Robin Oliveira, author of I Always Loved You
Oliveira appears at 8 p.m. Friday at Books & Books, 265 Aragon Ave., Coral Gables

Am all for conservation, but am fed up at how it is being implemented.
Live in small terraced house in an Architectural Conservation Area (but my street not a pretty one, just ugly mish-mash). My terrace was originally red brick, turn of century, but brick was poor quality & now most covered in cement or similar. Neighbouring terraces built in eighties, nineties & last year.
Still try to follow rules. Put in sash windows etc, while all neighbours went mad with pvc & replacing slates with tiles - and got away with it....
Now things have got ridiculous: constant holes in roof, as slates slipping coz supporting lats rotten. Roof will fall down if lats not replaced. Slates will fall off and - god forbid - hit car or person on head. Also no felt, so would like to put some in. However, conservation officer doesn't want me to lift slates.
All we want to do is lift slates, replace lats, relay same slates, thereby securing roof for future. Would look exactly the same, just stable. Conservation officer feels 'unnecessary' work - he hasn't even seen the house or know the street. Roofer warning me things will only get worse.
So, where do I stand if someone hurt by falling slates????
Can he really stop me fixing my roof? How does one appeal? Can one?
How can I find out exactly what this 'area of conservation' involves in my area?
Ironically, my next door neighbour has been granted permission to build a two storey house with BALCONY (kitchen-dining room) in garden next door - facing into my back garden & about 30 feet from my house - in the same conservation area. Nuts, or what?! garden only 12 feet wide.
In short, none of this encourages people to follow rules & get advice from conservation officers ot trust plkanning system, does it..... Just really disillusioned. Just feel this shows the insanity of the planning process here.....Where does sense come into the planning / coservation process????
(P.S. First post - hope this ok here)
