This claim arises out of an incident that occurred on October 29, 2015, at 13630 Bent Tree Circle, Centreville, VA 20120. The insured, Carlos Morales Portillo, was hired by Bent Tree Circle Apartments, Inc. (hereinafter “Bent Tree”) to help remodel and bring their condo units up to code. Specifically, insured was tasked with increasing the strength of the ceiling joists. In order to so, insured was using pieces of plywood to make boxes around the joists for more support. Since the sprinkler system lines run close to the ceiling joist system, insured tried to flex the pvc water lines of the sprinkler system away from the joists in order to slide the plywood next to the joists. One of the water lines was flexed too hard and snapped around the …show more content…
Mr. Rushziky’s estimate came to $115, 826.42 before depreciation and removing non-covered anti-microbial application. Since depreciation in this claim is $15,345.42, Blair & Company received approval from Underwriters to issue a Release of All Claims representing the settlement amount of $100,480.99, to the claimant. Instead of executing the release, Andrew Ross, a construction manager with Bent Tree, responded with a request for $124,191.29. In this request, Mr. Ross stated that their cost for the damages was greater than what was currently being offered. The claimant provided additional invoices that were later reviewed by the independent adjuster. Mr. Rushziky’s review of the estimates found that there is an $8,364.87 difference at Replacement Cost. Bent Tree’s new invoices have what appears to be emergency mitigation services for unit 103 in the amount of $1,800 that was not applied to the lump sum repair for that unit. Additionally, Bent Tree has an invoice for $1,800 for cabinet repair and cleaning for units 102 and 204. Both of these units also have lump sum repair estimates for $12,900.00. Mr. Rushziky had said that due to these issues he is unable to see where the differences are for this
2. Pam also noted that warranty contracts are given on all sales of pumps and valves. LS-Pump/Valve and now Hydromaint, have accounted for warranties only on the costs to "make good" when warranty claims were actually filed by customers. If warranty costs had been recognized as sales were made, the liability at January 1, 20X7, would have been $500,000. Pam noted, however, that Nick Riley and Ray Ballard were aware of the warranty contracts and took these into account in valuing the acquisition of LS-Pump/Valve. Nick and Ray did ...
Chicago’s Cabrini-Green public housing project is notorious in the United States for being the most impoverished and crime-ridden public housing development ever established. Originally established as inexpensive housing in the 1940’s, it soon became a vast complex of unsightly concrete low and high-rise apartment structures. Originally touted as a giant step forward in the development of public housing, it quickly changed from a racially and economically diverse housing complex to a predominantly black, extremely poor ghetto. As it was left to rot, so to speak, Cabrini-Green harbored drug dealers, gangs and prostitution. It continued its downward spiral of despair until the mid 1990’s when the Federal Government assumed control the Chicago Housing Authority, the organization responsible for this abomination. Cabrini-Green has slowly been recovering from its dismal state of affairs recently, with developers building mixed-income and subsidized housing. The Chicago Housing Authority has also been demolishing the monolithic concrete high-rise slums, replacing them with public housing aimed at not repeating the mistakes of the past. Fortunately, a new era of public housing has dawned from the mistakes that were made, and the lessons that were learned from the things that went on for half a century in Cabrini-Green.

This is a complex case, involving multiple parties and several variables that need to be examined thoroughly.

I wanted to let you know we are going to get someone out there by the beginning of next week if not sooner weather permitting. To be clear, we are going to come out to attempt to remedy the issue that you have brought to our attention. Being that the issue you have brought up to us seems to be an issue that was already existing in the same location, it seems to us that the true problem may be higher up on the shingle roof portion, not the metal roof portion we were contracted for. After reviewing the original documents and notes to production, they state that, as per customer we are not to replace the upper shingle roof portion due to cost and that you thought the shingles were not that old. It also stated not to do the
Horizon House, Inc. (HHINC) was creatively established by a visionary with goals. In the late 1950’s there was a woman named Marcella Schmoeger who suffered from a medical condition that kept her hospitalized during her recovery. At this time, Marcella witnessed many psychiatric patients remaining hospitalized due to the limited supports available. Due to these observations, Marcella had a vision to help people with mental illness. Years later, Marcella began taking these ideas and concerns to others in the community to address the social problems that individuals with mental illness faced, thus, in 1952 HHINC as created (Horizon House, Inc., 2016). Marcella raised awareness to the supports needed for people with mental illness, moreover, there were visions and goals that were established and shared by others. Therefore, HHINC was built on qualities of transformational leadership.

Per discussion with Cathy Nolan, ASR notes that the nature of this account is different compared to the other tested pre-paid accounts. The third party contracter bills Hill-Rom as they complete work on the hospital, resulting in an increase in the pre-paid account. This process continues until the installation process in the hospital is complete. Once the process is complete Hill-Rom will bill the customer their agreed upon amount for the installation. This transaction results in the full expense to the accumulated prepaid amount and recognition of revenue from the hospital. Therefore there is no expense to the account until the customer has been billed. In the above selections the customer has yet to be billed deeming section c) iii) of

Found in the case study entitled, Promotion from Within at Citrus Glen, is a staffing process concern. The Citrus Glen Company, based in Florida, is a juice producer that supplies orange and grapefruit to food processors, grocery stores, convenience stores and restaurants in the United States. With rapid growth over the last few years, the HR vice president, Mandarine “Mandy” Pamplemousse, has been worried about how to staff the ever-expanding array of positions for Citrus Glen.

A green building (also referred to as sustainable building or green construction) is a structure that employs an approach that is responsible for the environment besides being efficient in regard to resources all through its life cycle: This is from selecting the site to designing it, constructing, operating, maintaining, renovating and demolishing it. To achieve this, the client, the engineers, the architects and the entire design team closely cooperate at all stages of a project (Yan and Paliniotis, 2006). Practicing Green Building complements and expands the conventional building design areas of comfort, durability, utility and economy.
