The Louisville Metro Council passed a resolution last night which opposes the placement of tolls on existing bridges.  I agree with the principle of the legislation.   However, there is a loophole in the language that allows for such a toll.  Section II of the resolution states that if it is necessary, a toll can, in fact, be placed on existing infrastructure. Such a toll could be used to fund a new downtown bridge.  

Section II reads, “ Notwithstanding the Council’s belief that existing transportation
infrastructure should not be tolled to pay the cost of construction of the ORBP, it is
recognized that circumstances related to the orientation of the new downtown bridge
relative to the existing downtown Kennedy Bridge, e.g., the functional pairing of the two
bridges, could require the tolling of the existing Kennedy Bridge to provide appropriate
parity between the use of the two bridges. In that case, the Council believes any tolls
applied to the Kennedy Bridge should only be implemented when that phase is built and
then only in an amount necessary to recover the cost of the new downtown bridge, less
available federal funding.”

I am not a co-sponsor of the resolution because the language contains a loophole that will allow the use of tolls.
 
I did vote in favor of the resolution because it is non-binding and sends a message that the council does not support tolls.
 
The existing roads and bridges have already been paid for by your tax dollars.  Asking motorists to pay more money just doesn’t make sense to me.  As your councilman, I want to go on record and state that I will NOT support any plan that calls for tolls on existing roads or bridges.
 
It is important to me that you are aware that I am looking out for your best interest in this struggling economy.  Louisvillians should not be required to pay the price for government mismanagement of their tax dollars.
 
Again, I do NOT support any plan which allows tolls to be placed on existing roads or bridges.

BBB and Bullitt County Sheriff’s Office Warns:
Beware of Unscrupulous Contractors

 
The Better Business Bureau and the Bullitt County Sheriff’s Office is warning consumers to beware of unscrupulous contractors.
 
Consumers are complaining to the Bullitt County Sheriff’s Office and the BBB that Fix Right Roofing and Paving is taking their money and not doing the work promised. Some of these complaints involve local churches and a children’s home. The consumers say they write a check upfront, to help for materials, and the company does not come back to finish the job and won’t return phone calls.
 
Fix Right Roofing and Paving gives one address of 3044 Bardstown Road, in Louisville. This is actually a UPS store. The company has an “F” rating with the BBB due to 1 unanswered complaint. Another complaint is now in process.
 
The Bullitt County Sheriff’s Office and Better Business Bureau will provide more information today at the Bullitt County Sheriff’s Office, 300 S. Buckman Street, Shepherdsville, KY.
 
Tips from the BBB on hiring a contractor you can trust:
 
Start Your Search with BBB. The BBB has tens of thousands of Reliability Reports on contractors—good and bad—across the US.  BBB Accredited roofers have pledged to uphold BBB’s Standards for Trust and are contractually obligated to resolve all complaints filed
with the BBB.
 
Check Out the Contractor Carefully. Verify the business meets all state and local requirements including being licensed, insured and bonded. Also ask the business for references from recent jobs.
 
Get at least three bids. Beware of lowball estimates that may potentially balloon over time or foreshadow shoddy work to come.
 
Recognize the red flags. Beware of any contractor that uses high pressure sales tactics or requires full payment upfront. Also avoid contractors that require you to get the necessary permits.
 
Make sure everything is in writing. Make sure that the full scope of the work is explained in the contract including cleanup and disposal of waste. All verbal agreements need to be included in the written agreement. Pay close attention to the payment terms, estimated price of materials, and labor and any warranties or guarantees.

Beware of Storm Chasers. In the wake of a storm, fly-by-night repair businesses will solicit work, often door to door, in unmarked trucks. They might require advance payment and make big promises that they won’t deliver on.

The Department of Highways District 5 Office announces the temporary closure of the exit ramp from southbound Interstate 265 (Gene Snyder Freeway) to KY 155 (Taylorsville Road) at mile point 23.1.  In addition, the entrance ramp from KY 155 to northbound I-265 will be closed. 
 
Both ramps are scheduled for closure from 8:00 p.m. on Friday, September 24th until 6:00 a.m. on Monday, September 27th.  Crews will be performing work as part of the concrete pavement repair project on Interstate 265.
 
Motorists should follow the signed detour via southbound I-265 to Billtown Road (Exit 19).  Turn left at the end of the exit ramp onto Billtown Road and then access northbound I-265.  Follow northbound I-265 to KY 155.
 
The actual starting date and duration of this work may be adjusted if inclement weather or other unforeseen delays occur.  Dial 511 or log on to 511.ky.gov for the latest in traffic and travel information in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

Park Temporarily Close During Road Paving
 
Waverly Park will be temporarily closed from October 4 through October 15

 
Waverly Park located off Arnoldtown Road will be temporarily closed from October 4 to October 15 while crews resurface the road and make drainage improvements along the road side.
 
Waverly Park recently underwent major improvements such restoration of the lake and construction of a new walking path around the lake.  Other new amenities include two new shelters: a picnic pavilion and a fishing pier.  The last phase of the park’s improvements includes resurfacing the road.
 
“We knew the road would need to be repaved after the construction phase was complete.  The one road that goes into the park is unsafe because the sides are eroding causing the pavement to crumble and form potholes.  This paving project has always been part of implementing the final phases of the Master Plan,” says Councilman Hawkins. 
 
Bennett Knox, Project Manager at Waverly Park, has posted signs at the park’s entrance notifying the public the park will be temporarily closed.

With the unemployment rate still hovering around 10 percent, the Better Business Bureau warns job hunters to beware of scammers preying on the unemployed.
 
According to the U.S. Department of Labor, unemployment claims unexpectedly jumped to 500,000 in mid-August, an increase of 12,000 over the previous week. According to a July report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, nearly 45 percent of unemployed Americans have been out of work for more than 6 months.
 
BBB warns job hunters to beware of these red flags:
 
 
 
Red Flag: The employer offers a work-at-home opportunity
While many legitimate businesses do allow employees to work from home, scammers take advantage of this by targeting senior citizens, stay-at-home moms, students, and injured or disabled people wishing to work from home. Job hunters should use caution when considering a work-at-home offer and always research the company with their BBB at www.bbb.org.
 
Red Flag: The employer asks for money upfront
Employers rarely ask an applicant to pay upfront fees or make a required purchase to get a job. BBB often hears from job hunters who paid a bogus employer for “required” background checks or training for jobs that didn’t exist. Always research the job thoroughly before reaching for your wallet.
 
Red Flag: The salary and benefits offered seem too-good-to-be-true
Phony employers might brag about exceptionally high salary potential and excellent benefits for little work with no experience
necessary in order to lure unsuspecting job hunters into a scam.
 
Red Flag: Employer e-mails are filled with poor grammar and spelling errors.
Online fraud is often perpetrated by scammers located outside the U.S. E-mails will often contain poor grammar and misspellings of common words.
 
Red Flag: The employer asks for personal information such as Social Security or bank account numbers
Legitimate employers do not ask for personal or financial information via e-mail. Regardless of the reason given, a job applicant should never give out his or her Social Security or bank account numbers over the phone or in an email.
Red Flag: The employer asks you to check your credit report
After posting resumes online or responding to online job listings, many job hunters may receive an e-mail from an interested
employer. In order to be considered for the job, the applicant is asked to check his or her credit report through a recommended website. The e-mail is an attempt to get the job hunter to divulge sensitive financial information or sign-up for credit monitoring services.
 
Red Flag: The job requires you to wire money through Western Union or MoneyGram or receive and forward suspicious goods
Scammers ask the prospective employee to cash a check sent by the company through the mail and then wire a portion of the money to a person or business. The check is usually a fake and the employee is not reimbursed for the money. BBB also warns against receiving and mailing suspicious goods, such as electronics or luxury items, overseas.
