Home / News (TransWorldNews)

| Queens Family Suffering Health Problems from Mold-Infested Jamaica Home City Housing Authority denied emergency transfer though violations show immediate hazard | |
by Vera Chinese / NEW YORK DAILY NEWS
Inky-black mold spores speckling a Jamaica home have left a Queens family unable to breath easy.
Patrina Smith, who receives Section 8 rent subsidies first noticed the toxic fungi in February 2011, a month after she, her two daughters and granddaughter moved in to the two-family home.
Spores have now overtaken the walls, floors and furniture, making the apartment, by many accounts, uninhabitable. But Smith cannot move until she gets approval from the city Housing Authority, which administers the federally subsidized program.
"I should not have to live like this," Smith said while showing the mold-ravaged home to the Daily News. "It's so disgusting."

| 19 Courthouse Employees Sue Broward Saying Building Made Them Ill Meanwhile, construction of new courthouse delayed | |
by Brittany Wallman, Sun Sentinel
Nineteen current and former employees of the Broward County Courthouse have sued the county, arguing the building is "sick" and so are they.
The employees say the county's courthouse in downtown Fort Lauderdale is infested with toxic mold and that tiny asbestos fibers float through the air, exposing the public and the employees to health dangers. They want financial compensation for their illnesses, and they want the courthouse evacuated, among other requests.
"I think the county totally neglected this courthouse," said attorney and former state Sen. Skip Campbell, whose firm is handling the cases. "They are not doing their job."

A bathroom tested high, and so did the master bedroom. CBS4's test results now have the attention of the people in charge of the remediation project.

"Enthusiasm is one of the most powerful engines of success. When you do a thing, do it with all your might. Put your whole soul into it. Stamp it with your own personality.
Be active, be energetic, be enthusiastic and faithful... Nothing great
was ever achieved
without enthusiasm."
--Ralph Waldo Emerson
