Mr. Maxwell
As a long time resident of your beautiful development ,7 yrs this past October to be exact and owner of two homes, let me just say I am very disappointed by the article in the Ledger Newspaper today Dec. 8 in the fact that you would let this problem with Chinese drywall get to this level. Its bad enough that we have all taken a hit because of the recession with the devaluation of our properties falling by as much as 50% and now we are faced with another black eye to the community. Mr. Maxwell I think that if you will ask Mr. Mark Schreiber, Joe Hunter or any of your staff out here that my wife and I have always promoted and defended Lake Ashton among many negative comments from some of these folks in the community. I think it is your financial obligation to do what ever is necessary to insure that all of these homes are not in any way affected by this Chinese drywall dilemma. Mr. Maxwell the newspaper makes reference to the homes only built between 2006 and 2007 well I don't know if that is true or not. After moving in our home in 2002 and after being here for about a year and a half my wife and I began to experience short bouts with respiratory infections and really couldn't understand why when both of us exercise every day and try to take care of ourselves. We began to notice black soot looking material around the edges our carpet, coming out of the air vents, black soot halo around the pictures on the walls and this material was covering our cloths. After numerous attempts with the air-conditioning folks out here we were told by their experts that it was a phenomenon and they didn't know what it was. At this point we did not know who to turn to however we were friends with Lonnie Adams who at the time I think was your project engineer. We asked Lonnie to come and inspect our house and by his advise he asked us to find someplace to go for a week while they corrected this problem. At the end of the day my wife and I had been living in a house full of mold which had permeated the air handler and the duct work through out the house and we are very grateful that Lonnie stepped to the plate no questions asked while we were out of the expense of ripping up the carpet, repainting the inside of our house and throwing our clothes away.
Today I can go out side in the garage and look at the ceiling around the air handler and again it is getting black with mold..............................Makes you wonder doesn't?
Respectfully
