Make sure you park in the right spots though or you'll quickly be towed. Susan Evans We toured here two years ago, but settled on Thalia Gardens instead because we couldn't decide between a nicer and large 1 bedroom with everything we need (w/d, dw) or a 2BD/2BA apartment. Now th … at our lease is almost up and we've decided we definitely need the 2BD/2BA, we wanted to tour again to refresh our memory. Our experience was NOT a good one. We did not receive a friendly greeting from the leasing consultant (not once did she mention her name so I couldn't even tell you which one she was other than she had brown hair, brown eyes, and was pregnant). ...

Request for preschool funding comes up against concerns about wages | Local news

Roughly 220 children in lower-income families in Bloomington qualify for but do not have access to affordable pre- kindergarten education . In an effort to change this, Alex Crowley, director of the city’s Economic and Sustainable Development Department , said a state-sponsored initiative, On My Way Pre-K pilot program, which provides funding to programs serving 4-year-olds from families with household incomes at or below 127 percent of the federal poverty level , is coming to Monroe County next year, and it is estimated it can help about 50 children. That begs the question: What can the city and others do to make sure no children who are eligible for pre-kindergarten are left out? As part of that answer, the city is proposing investing $100,000 to support quality child care for lower-income families. “Every dollar initially invested in early education programs for children from low-income families is estimated to generate $4 to $11 in economic benefits over a child’s lifetime,” May...

After her life in L.A. unraveled, a woman living in her car hopes to regain health and employment

Image
She’s a Los Angeles native , the daughter of Japanese immigrants, and at one time she was the definition of middle class. College education. Good job. Nice apartment in the Cheviot Hills area . Losing those things did not happen overnight. There’s a story here, an unraveling, a long process of decline. Often, for the tens of thousands of people who live on the margins in one of the most expensive regions of the world, a bad break is the beginning of a steep drop. Meg Shimatsu, 54, was diagnosed with diabetes almost 20 years ago, but the bigger blow came nearly a decade ago. That’s when doctors told her that her kidneys were giving out. Her disease advanced in the wake of the economic recession, and work as a legal secretary was harder to come by. In 2012, Shimatsu began dialysis treatment that often left her fatigued. On her medical disability income , she could no longer afford her apartment, so she moved in with a sick, elderly friend in Eagle Rock, and helped keep his house in orde...
