Okokuqala, ngifuna ukukubonga ngokungivumela mina nabanye ukuba sibhale phansi imibuzo yosuku, futhi cishe njalo niyiphrinta endaweni. Ngibonga nabantu bendawo ngokubika ngomphakathi wethu.
IsiShayamthetho saseVirginia saphasisa umthethosivivinywa esimisweni sokuqala esikhethekile sesikhathi eside esingadingekile ngo-2020, okungenani okungomunye wemithetho eyisiwula neyingozi kakhulu emlandweni waseVirginia.
Yi-HB 5058. Ivimbela ngempumelelo ukuphoqelelwa kwemithetho ethile yomgwaqo, njengeziphambeko zokukhanyisa izimoto. Manje, iphini likasherifu alikwazi ukumisa umshayeli ngokomthetho ngenxa yesibani sangemuva esiphukile, isibani samabhuleki esiphukile, noma eminye imishini enephutha evinjelwe ngumthetho. Umthethosivivinywa wokuqala owaphasiswa yi-Virginia State Assembly waze wavimbela nokupaka ngenxa yezibani zangaphambili ezingalungile! Kodwa undunankulu wawubuyekeza (uRhuluneli uNortham kufanele awuvimbe ngokuphelele) ukuze kuvunyelwe ukupaka ebusuku ngenxa yezibani zangaphambili ezingalungile. Sonke kufanele sibonge!
Lo mthethosivivinywa ungase uthinte ukuphepha komphakathi emigwaqweni emikhulu. Izimoto eziyingozi seziphumile, futhi manje abashayeli kumele baqaphele kakhulu.
Ngo-2021, ummeleli wethula umthethosivivinywa wokususa noma ukuguqula kakhulu lo mthetho oyisiwula noyingozi. NguDel Scott Wyatt. Umthethosivivinywa wakhe wenqatshwa ekomitini elincane. (Omunye wabameleli abavotele ukususa lo mthetho oyisiwula kwakunguJason Miares.)
Ukhetho lubaluleke kakhulu. Ukuvota kubaluleke kakhulu, yingakho ngivote kusenesikhathi. Lona akusiwona kuphela umthethosivivinywa oyisiwula owaphasiswa yiningi lamaDemocratic aseRichmond. I-HB 5055 idinga ukuthi i-ejensi yamaphoyisa (ngokubonga hhayi isherifu) isungule ikomidi lokubuyekeza umphakathi ukuze liphenye ukuziphatha kabi kwamaphoyisa. Mina ngokwami ngiyavumelana nalo mbono. Amaphoyisa kufanele abe nesibopho. Kodwa-ke, kubasebenzi bomthetho asebethathe umhlalaphansi noma ababengamaphoyisa abashiywe besesimweni esihle, ikomidi alinazo izidingo. Ikomidi lokubuyekeza umphakathi manje lingagcwala izishoshovu ezilwa namaphoyisa.
Nginezinkinga ezithile ngoGlenn Yankin. Kodwa ngicabanga ukuthi ulethe ubuso obusha kwezepolitiki. Ngicabanga ukuthi usezame kuze kube manje ukugcina isimo sengqondo esihle emkhankasweni wakhe. Ngakho-ke ngivote kusenesikhathi: Kulolu khetho, uYoungkin ungumbusi, uSears ungumbusi we-LG, uMiyares we-AG, noDel. Wyatt. Ukhetho luyabaluleka.
Idolobha elincane elidinga ngokushesha ukuthuthukisa izindlela zokuhamba ngezinyawo, izibani zasemgwaqweni, izindawo zokupaka izimoto edolobheni kanye nezinsiza ezingaphansi komhlaba, isifunda salo sebhizinisi esiphakathi sinochungechunge lwezakhiwo zezentengiselwano ezingasetshenziswa kahle, i-Ashland manje inezakhiwo zebhizinisi ezibiza kakhulu, ezinkulu kakhulu ezweni futhi Kungashiwo ukuthi ihholo ledolobha elakhiwe kabi lihlalisa ochwepheshe abangaphezu kweshumi nambili kanye nabasebenzi babo abangazange benze lutho ukuthuthukisa isimo eminyakeni engama-20. Ayikho inkampani enesibopho sezimali ezothwala umthwalo wesikweletu onjalo kubasebenzi abambalwa kangaka. Ihholo lethu elisha ledolobha elibiza ngaphezu kwezigidi eziyi-US$8 kanye nemali yomklami wezakhiwo engu-US$500,000 lithembise ukwakha "isakhiwo esiluhlaza", kanye nehholo elisha ledolobha kanye nendawo yemakethe yabalimi.
Lesi sakhiwo asiluhlaza kangako ngoba uhlaka lwaso lwenziwe ngensimbi ngokuphelele. Lezi zinto zingaphinde zisetshenziswe, kodwa izindleko zamandla zokukhiqiza, ukukhiqiza kanye nokuvuselela zidlula kakhulu ukusetshenziswa kwezinkuni.
Ngaphandle kokubandakanya i-Virginia Building Code, isakhiwo ngabe saklanywa ukuze sizivumelanise ngokugcwele nezinqubo zesakhiwo saso sohlaka lwezinkuni.
Uma indawo yokwamukela izivakashi enhle enezitezi ezimbili enezitezi ezimbili ezinkulu kanye nama-gable amakhulu engilazi abheke empumalanga esuswa, isakhiwo sonke singaba yisitezi esisodwa kuphela, sisuse izitebhisi ezibizayo, imiphini ye-lifti kanye nama-lifti, kanye nobukhulu obutholakala ohlelweni lwe-gable ye-thermal kanye ne-sprinkler ekuseni.
Ngaphandle kokubuka emuva, imisindo yeKhamu LoMkhandlu ayizange icatshangelwe ngoba ukuma nokuphakama kwegumbi kwakwenza kwaba yikamelo lokuzwa, lapho kwakusetshenziswa khona ukuvuselelwa kwemisindo esikhundleni somklamo wemisindo.
Isakhiwo esiluhlaza sisebenzisa ukukhanya kwasenyakatho ukunciphisa izindleko zokukhanyisa. Ukukhanya kwasenyakatho kuphela kulesi sakhiwo kunikezwa ehholo lomhlangano lapho imihlangano eminingi ibanjelwa khona ebusuku.
Uhlelo lwe-HVAC duct lufihliwe ngokuphelele ezakhiweni, futhi lezi zakhiwo azikwazi ukungena endaweni eyisicaba ye-drywall engamafidi angu-14 emoyeni futhi azikwazi ukuhlanzwa. Angikwazi ukucabanga ukuthi lungakanani uthuli oluzoqongelela eminyakeni edlule.
Izimbiza ezinkulu zezimbali zensimbi ngaphandle zizungeze izakhiwo ezenziwe ngensimbi kaCorten. Lezi zakhiwo zigqwalile ngokwemvelo ukuze zinikeze indawo evikelayo. Ngeshwa, zibekwe ngqo eduze kwendlela yomgwaqo kakhonkolo futhi seziqalile ukungcolisa indlela yomgwaqo. Ngabuza ukuthi kungani kwakusetshenziswa imishini yokutshala kwasekuqaleni, ngoba yayinamandla futhi ibiza kakhulu, futhi ngabona ukuthi izakhiwo zazinezinhlobo ezinhlanu zokusetshenziswa ezihlukene, futhi kwakudinga i-crane engu-$1,000 ngosuku ukuze zifakwe endaweni yazo. Ngiyethemba ukuthi umakhi uzothwala izindleko. Kunoma ikuphi, ingabe izimbiza zezimbali ziyisinyathelo sokuphepha, njengezinsika zensimbi ezizungeze iNkantolo Ephakeme? Ngempela, kumele ngibuze!
Amakholomu amakhulu ekhonkrithi agqitshwe kusengaphambili ayashesha ukuphendula ukuphikisa kwezakhamuzi ngomklamo ophelele. Ngicabanga ukuthi uma izindleko zokufaka ziyi-1/10 kuphela yekholomu ye-fiberglass yakudala, izindleko zekholomu ngayinye zingamadola aseMelika angu-5,000, futhi kuzoba kuhle kakhulu.
Umklami wezakhiwo waklama isikhumbuzo sakhe, kunokuba acabangele izakhiwo ezinezilinganiso ezifanele noma abasebenzisi bazo. Ukuntuleka kwezilinganiso kusobala; kudlula konke okuzungezile.
Ideski elikhulu elivulekile lokwamukela izivakashi alinaki ukwenziwa ngokwezifiso kwendawo okusobala okwakukhona esakhiweni esidala. Liklanywe ngendlela encane kakhulu, futhi abasebenzisi balo benze indawo ngokwezifiso zabo, njengoba bekulindelekile, ngakho-ke manje selingcolile, hhayi elincane kakhulu.
Imakethe yabalimi esibathembisayo ihlukile...indawo yokupaka! Ayikaze icabangele ukusetshenziswa kwayo okungenzeka. Kufanele ngibuze, ingabe imali yabo ayisekho?
Kukhona udonga "oluhlotshisiwe" lwamatshe eThompson Street. Luphakeme kakhulu ukuba lungahlalwa phansi. Alusizo ngalutho ngaphandle kokubeka imitha kagesi. Lokhu kungenye into ecatshangelwe kamuva.
Ngingaqhubeka nokugxeka ukubekwa kwezinsiza zomphakathi, kanye nokungacabangi kahle, okuvimbela ukwakhiwa nokuqaliswa kwalesi sakhiwo ngaphandle kokusebenzisa imali, kodwa ngizokwenza isiphakamiso esingathi sína lapha. Thola inkampani encane ye-dot.com edinga isakhiwo esikhulu. Yiqashise kubo bese uthola indawo yabasebenzi bedolobha kunoma yisiphi isitezi sesibili esingasetshenziswa kahle sezakhiwo zasedolobheni. Lokhu kuzoletha ochwepheshe abasebasha, abakhokhelwa kahle edolobheni, kwandise ukuhamba kwabagibeli ezitolo esinazo, bese kuqasha emuva ehholo lomhlangano womkhandlu ukuze kuncishiswe ukusetshenziswa. Tshela amalungu omkhandlu wakho ukuthi acindezele abasebenzi bedolobha ukuba babasize bandise amandla esakhiwo ukuze basekele amabhizinisi endawo kanye nezindawo eziphethwe yizinkampani ukuze isikhungo sedolobha sichume. Akukho nkinga yenkukhu noma yamaqanda lapha. Ukuze kusekelwe izakhiwo ezifana neNew City Hall, abasebenzi bedolobha kanye namakhansela kufanele baqale babhekane nezinkinga ezikhona ze-Ashland, bathuthukise ingqalasizinda, futhi basize izinkampani ekuthuthukiseni izimpahla kanye nokuthola uxhaso lwezimali.
