911 Camden Avenue





















The Forbes Family simply can't take it any more. "Please just buy us out and we'll move on peacefully."

With all the out of control developing going on, 911 Camden Ave. became subjected to very poor planning and the runoff from every property around ends on this property. Most of the water that ends up there is what they call, "black water." This is water run off from the roads and is very unhealthy. It kills all the grass and plants very quickly. Their Insurance Company refuses to cover anything any more because of the massive damage it causes in flooding some 4 times a year.

"No Real Estate Company will touch our property, it's worthless." The City Council put on their smiley faces and because they knew this was in fact televised, they couldn't treat this poor family as harsh as they have off camera.

The Forbes produced photographs proving the water had gone up some 8 feet high into their garage, which they finally had to tear down because it became so rotted. The mold and mildew levels are so bad that the black mold has grown all the way into their attic! That's bad Folks!

If you see ANY black mold in your home I strongly suggest you get your Insurance Company in there right away before it spreads too far. I believe the Insurance Companies in Maryland will only cover up to $5,000.00 in repairs and trust me, that mold can grow so fast it isn't funny! Once it gets started it's very difficult to stop.

Most people who have mold in their home can't seem to smell it unless they get away from that property for several days and when they return it becomes very evident. Then they get used to it all over again and forget it's there. This mold can kill people, especially the elderly. It attacks the immunity system and it's down hill from there. People can get respiratory problems, nasal passage problems and can get colds and other illnesses very easily.

My suggestion to the Forbes Family is, expose this to the Press as often as possible and let it go to the Court of Public Opinion! If the City would have to spend some $2,000,000.00 for pipes that won't work anyway, the City should buy their home at a fair market value and tear the home down and put a park/playground there.
