PORT ARTHUR RECOVERY PROJECT
Construction Report for The City of Port Arthur
June 22, 2007
Homes that qualify for the Port Arthur Recovery Project typically require one or more of
the following constructions activities:
· Professional Work
o Leveling
o Roofing
o Electrical
o Plumbing
· Volunteer Work
o Sheetrock
o painting and
o other interior work
Volunteers are used to help reduce the cost of repairs. The majority of their work is on
the interior of the home once professional work is completed. With up to $3000 from
LSSDR to purchase materials, most of the non-professional services can be completed by
volunteers. Current capacity is at least 100 additional homes at $3,000 per home.
Most of the damaged homes require a professional to do some of the work. This may
involve one or more of the professional services listed above. Until the professional work
has been done volunteers can not complete homes.
Currently we have 12 homes in progress and 21 homes that are ready for volunteer work.
These homes should be ready to begin construction by volunteers by the end of July
2007. If more homes do not have professional work completed there will be no other
homes ready for volunteers and this will force us to close the volunteer program and
ultimately the SETIO/LSSDR Port Arthur Recovery Project.
It is our hope that the CDBG money allocated to the City of Port Arthur will be available
for bids by October. When the opportunity to bid on homes is opened, we intend to bid
and make use of that money to continue the project. Until then we need to find enough
financial resources to pay for professional services for three months (July, August and
September).
See attached for an estimate of how much money we will need and how it will be spent.
