Seeing red


Positively Palermo has been contacted about a reddish puddle that has sprouted up near the models in Phase 2 of Palermo Palm Springs. Nearby, a hose is connected to the water spigot on one of the models. The puddle is near where the crews appear to have been storing their used buckets for the repainting of the Deep Russet and Copper colors of Palermo. The concern is about any possible soil contamination, any possible disposal of waste, and doing what is environmentally correct. It is unclear which entity is in charge of this property. It is known that MB Financial in the past was said to be taking title to certain property. Miss Penny Lane says: She understands people are seeing red and hopes a clean-up is on the way on Wednesday.

2/16 UPDATE: We received a report that another red-paint puddle appeared today.

Looks like Love Canel. Who is in charge of this space? I want names.

Majorly uncool. They said MB Financial appointed a local trustee, so that is the one in charge of fixing this.

There are regulations against dumping paint as it is considered haz mat. It is going to rain over the next days so the paint will soak into the dirt and watershed.

The pool of red muck has soak into the soil, so the contamination has occurred. The soil needs to be removed and cleaned. County environmental services should be called in. A city may have a unit to. The painters are here again today so if the contamination continues it probably should be more than just the paint company responsible for cleaning it up. Does anyone know the contact at MB Financial? I'm going to send an email to the corporate HQs but that probably won't get to the right person.

Another dumping? We need to contact MB Financial as they are supposedly the new owners and should clean it up. I'm calling the mayor.

Are the painters back today? Does anyone know the email or phone for MB Financial so we can tell them what is happening on their property. When/if they plan to sell, they will need to clean it up if notified.
