Frozen Water Pipes in August????
I wonder how many folks realize we just had a severe winter freeze
that moved through the valley? It was so severe that it caused frozen pipes to
burst, according to the WKSR website and news reported by the station. Oh, you
didn't realize that we had a freeze? Well, maybe the severe temperature drop
was experienced in only one area of the county? It was reported that a frozen
pipe burst in the spec. building on Long Street that resulted in damage and
need for a new pressure valve that would cost about $1,500.00 dollars. There
was no report as to whether the insurance would cover and part of the cost.
Oh, did I mention this just happens to be the only report of
a frozen pipe in the county since last winter and it also just happens to be
the building at the center of a very, very large lawsuit? Yes, that’s right the
lawsuit where money that was paid for property in the South Industrial Park is
being diverted from paying off that mortgage to paying attorney fees. AMAZING, ISN'T IT!
