Continued from page 1 Although just two months old, some townhouse units in Phase 2 are showing signs of deficiencies which homeowners find upsetting and unacceptable. Nail heads are popping out of walls, uneven beams are showing through the dry- wall, noticeable touch-up jobs on the walls have been left unfinished, some units have uneven doors and windows and some have covered fuse boxes in their living rooms and hot water heaters placed in upper level closets. On Tuesday when Phase 2 home- owners were to sign the final clos- ing with the developer, they were unable to become registered owners because there is a $43,829.30 lien on the units resulting from unpaid bills owed by the builder to an engineering firm. The homeowner also acknowl- edged the hope that some help for the slo could be forth- coming from He described ie outcome of his meeting with Mayor Russ Miller last Friday morning as “construc- tive.” “The mayor said he will make an attempt to look into things,” he said, adding that the homeowners’ action group has asked occupants of the subdivision, in Phases 1 and 2, to compile a list of their concerns so that they can be passed on to the “We’ve picked up easily 30. names and now have close to 45 or 50 households looking to us for guidance.” The angry homeowner is current- Halton Hills This Week, Saturday, September 12, 1992, Page 7 Kingsmill residents’ group gaining members ly waiting for information brochures which have been mailed from the Hamilton office of the Ontario New Home Warranty Program (ONHWP). He plans to distribute the infor- mation to homeowners in the subdi- vision to make them aware of their rights as new home buyers. mayor. “Mayor Miller was very helpful,” the homeowner said while speaking about the recent meeting at the Civic Centre. Also attending the meeting were the town’s director of building code and by-law enforcement Henry Tse, building inspector Sean Dillon and Councillor Gail Rutherford. After the meeting, Dillon visited the Kingsmill site and the builders were directed to put snow fencing around outside areas which are cluttered with debris or covered with water. However, much more remains to be done to make the site safe for children and adults in the complex, the new owner said. The homeowners’ association, which began with three people, has been growing steadily. “The phone hasn’t stopped ring- ing” since a story about the devel- opment was published in Halton Hills This Week, an organizer of the association said. Child bitten on face by dog In what police are calling an “unprovoked attack”, a séven-year- old boy was bitten in the face by a dog. The child was visiting a relative's Rexway Drive, Georgetown resi- dence Sunday evening when the attack occurred. As the child reached down to pet the animal -- which was playing with on a bone -- the dog "leapt up and bit the child in the face without provocation.” The child was taken to Georgetown District Memorial Hospital by his father where a plas- tic surgeon treated the youth. The dog was taken to the pound by local animal control officials and police say it will likely be destroyed.
