I'd recommend getting one of those "Sanding Sponges" - a high grit one - from the drywall or paint department at Home Depot or Lowes.

Give 24 hours notice, you're not asking him... you're telling him. 2) If you are worried, yes you can call the local police department, explain the situation and request a police escort, it they decline at least you have it on record that you requested.

You might check with the city planning department & see if there's any long-term strategy for the area that might influence your decision.

Call your HR department and talk to them about the rules for your plan.

What you put there will have much to do with it's value, what does a good location go for in putting up a C-Store or Dollar General?

It's a small town when people looking for entertainment on a Sunday afternoon park at the bank to watch the time/temp sign change.It's a small town when the only traffic light only flashes during the day.It's a small town when the grocery store closes for lunch.It's a small town when the back of the church is city hall.It's a small town when the minister is the mayor and the justice of the peace and owns the real estate brokerage.It's a small town when everyone is related or use to be. :)

If the above is correct and that older ad is still out there, then wouldn't it be like a store having to honor a falsely lower labeled item, even if it was a mistake?

I simply want a web based system to store docs, have a tenant portal, handle service requests and perform accounting.  

At the end of the day, if something goes wrong, you don't want to owe a bank, hardware store, subcontractors.  

I would check with the code department (or may need to talk to the building dept if there is a separate one).
