Parkland creates Chinese drywall web page
There are at least 137 families in Parkland who believe they have been affected by the Chinese drywall issue.
John Willis, member of the task force created by the city to look into the issue, informed city officials that 137 people had responded to the survey on the Web site that contains information on the issue. The task force will send letters to residents in the coming days to find out the actual number of people who have homes built using Chinese drywall.
The Web site created by the city includes links to various agencies that have been involved with the Chinese Drywall issue, letters from elected officials expressing their position and how they can assist with the problem, and frequently asked questions regarding Chinese drywall.
It can be accessed at www.cityofparkland.org. Contact the task force or Paul Wise at 954 753-5447.

The defective Chinese drywall debacle has been making news for months now, with homeowners plagued by sulfur fumes that smell like “rotten eggs” and cause air conditioning coils to corrode. Residents complain of sinus and respiratory ailments, eye and skin irritation, persistent runny or bloody noses, headaches, and asthma. Some situations were so severe that residents had to vacate their homes. In some cases, victims have been harassed by builders into signing unfair, one-side remediation agreements. The issues surrounding defective Chinese drywall are confusing and worrisome. Here is a good blog that has been providing emerging and valuable information on the problems: www.chinese-drywall-answers.com
