At the end of the repo road a house gets new life

Thursday, December 10th, 2009

Here’s to long-time renters Ken and Diana Tate and their newborn son, among the first families to buy a Sacramento foreclosure renovated with federal stimulus funds.The couple paid $117,000 for a house near Fruitridge Road and Highway 99, and moved in two weeks ago.

The Housing Group Fund, small-scale local builders, remodeled the house, and SMUD turned it into a energy efficient model demonstration project.It’s a tiny piece of the $3.9 billion federal Neighborhood Stabilization Plan that sent $32 million to Sacramento County earlier this year.

The Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Agency contributed $86,000 from the allocation to bring back a house nearly destroyed on its way to foreclosure. Said Diana Tate at a ribbon cutting marking the accomplishment Thursday: “It’s been a long time coming.”

In another moving scene, husband Ken said they’d looked at houses for a year.  ”We finally finished the race,” he said.

Here’s a look at the ribbon cutting held in their front yard:

Schwarzenegger Wants ACORN Investigated

Thursday, September 17th, 2009

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Raising the stakes involved in the scandal surrounding the anti-poverty group ACORN, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is urging a “full investigation” by California Attorney General Jerry Brown into ACORN’s California activities.

The governor sent a letter Wednesday to Brown, referring to “news stories regarding the ACORN organization that have concerned me greatly.”

ACORN stands for the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now. The group has come under fire after employees were caught on tape giving tax advice to conservative operatives posing as prostitutes and pimps.

The most recent video surfaced this week in San Bernardino and has been used extensively by Fox News and conservative Web sites.

“You can hear on the tape, the ACORN worker offering advice as to how to lie, how to claim that the house is a business, not a brothel,” KTKZ talk show host Eric Hogue said Wednesday on his radio broadcast in Sacramento.

Callers weighed in, one saying, “It just makes me sick.”

At ACORN’s Sacramento offices on Florin Road, a worker who answered the door said she couldn’t answer questions. Ronald Coleman, ACORN’s legislative director in Sacramento, later confirmed that tax and mortgage services were being suspended for now.

“This is not how we should handle ourselves. We need to take this time to re-evaluate,” Coleman said.

Bertha Lewis, ACORN’s chief executive officer, called the action of the workers in the video “indefensible” and said an independent review would be launched.

It’s unclear just how much federal money goes to ACORN in California. The state Department of Housing and Community development said it had no records of any state grants being awarded to ACORN.

The Sacramento ACORN office’s budget is $300,000, according to state field director Christina Livingston. Many of those funds come from membership and fundraising, she said.

Outside the Sacramento office, Ruby Bradley said she was highly skeptical of the organization. She said she once applied for help with a housing loan with ACORN, but never got a response.

“I think it was poor business,” Bradley said.

That complaint was echoed by Demario Anthony of Sacramento, who said his aunt’s application was ignored.

“She stopped dealing with them,” Anthony said. “We asked what happened, and she said she didn’t want to talk about it.”

2009 Football schedules are finally here!!

Sunday, August 30th, 2009

As usual we send football schedules, however this year we have something better. Pick the Pros lets football fans really participate by matching their picks against friends or local sportswriters’ picks. Every week of the season your customers will find each game’s favorite in the newspaper, write it down inthe book, and make their own picks. When the games are over, they’ll record the final score and calculate their own won/lost precentage for the week. Weekly schedules have the divisional lineups that show game listings by the pro football weeks, from 1 to 17. Each week lists the specific game dates and indicates which teams have an open date.
