3. PROJECT DESCRIPTION (Please do not exceed space provided below.) <br />a. Provide a brief description of the proposed scope of work. <br />Mainly the proposal is the roof repair and replacement and the patio <br />drainage repair and installation of a sump pump and plumbing to drain the <br />water away from the house. The concrete removal is tied into the patio <br />work. The other items are interior maintenance and repairs. <br />b. Describe how the work will be carried out and by whom. Include a <br />description of elements to be rehabilitated or replaced and describe <br />preservation work techniques that will be used. <br />The work will be done by my contractor. Bert Brucker. <br />c. Explain why the project needs rehabilitation grant funds now. Include a <br />description of community support and /or community benefits, if any. <br />The roof and patio need to be address immediately. Currently water drains <br />into the basement, evident of the work that needs to be done to correct the <br />grade of water flow. The weight from the current trusses has created two <br />cracks that span the length of the house. One on the north side and one of <br />the south. The city inspector and my contractor, Bert, have both decided it <br />is from the weight of the layers of roofing that are currently on the home. <br />The trusses were hand built in 1932 and not designed to carry all the <br />weight from the 3 or 4 layers of shingles and nails. <br />The benefit to the community is the maintenance of one of its historical <br />homes. <br />
