Correction

Members of the Shady Acres/Salem Mobile Estates Chapter appreciate receiving the Fall issue of the OSTA Review. Information reported in the Review on page 11 ...should be corrected [as follows]::
1. The name of our OSTA Chapter is listed as Salem/Shady Acres MHP. The name is Shady Acres/Salem Mobile Estates.
2.  The name of our secretary is Evan Dillon, not Pat Norman....
3.   Barbara Mitchell from Lakeridge did not assist in writing our by-laws. We have not been informed that  
      she was to assist in writing our by-laws. We have written and adopted our by-laws.
We appreciate the opportunity to be a part of MH/OSTA and look forward to receiving future issues of the OSTA Review.
Sincerely,

A FIRE ALERT FOR ALL READERS!


Eldorado Villa, Tigard experienced a bit of pre July 4th fireworks you NEVER want to see—an electrical fire that destroyed a house in our community. Thank goodness the home was empty and the new residents had not begun to move in. The manager is now looking for another home that might be suitable for the buyers. 

Once the flames were extinguished, the firemen dismantled the siding that remained to make sure the sparks were all foamed out of existence.  They had to use their masks during this procedure as the asbestos in the insulation added to the toxic fumes.  Neighbors had to evacuate their homes as the winds continually changed directions. Siding on a neighboring home was scorched and will require replacement.

What we learned and I pass on to you: 1.Keep up on house insurance payments, 2.Trim shrubs three feet away from hydrants, and 3.Pay for a pre-purchase inspection to catch problems like faulty wiring.

Rita Loberger, Northern District Director
