Residents Press After New House Repair Delays

Neighbors, led by WAG president Rene Meseraull, complain about Mike Ray’s Sixth Ave SE project which left the house raised on blocks with partial framing. Inspectors found a bowing main beam but no violations beyond a foundation permit. Ray says delays stem from four failed contractors and aims to finish siding and basement work this fall.
