Crawl Space Door Systems, Inc. Announces Court Case Win Against Competitor Making False Claims

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. /ScoopCloud/ -- On September 24, 2013, Smart Vent filed a lawsuit against Crawl Space Door Systems, Inc. in the NJ Federal Court, case 1:13-cv-05691-JBS-KMW. Crawl Space Door Systems, Inc. filed a counter-claim. The lawsuit is now over and Crawl Space Door Systems won.

"We're happy to announce that the Federal Court ruling finalized what we've known all along - that Crawl Space Door Systems' engineered flood vents are FEMA and NFIP compliant," William G. Sykes, owner, Crawl Space Door Systems, says.

As of October 24, 2019, some of the jury findings revealed that Smart Vent (SV) was unable to prove that Crawl Space Door Systems (CSDS) made false statements about the coverage of CSDS's flood vents; or made false or misleading statements about the purchase and use of CSDS's flood vents to reduce flood insurance premiums.

However, CSDS was able to prove that SV made false claims about CSDS' product statements. More importantly, CSDS was able to prove that SV actually harmed CSDS's business in terms of declining sales and loss of goodwill. CSDS was also able to prove their flood vents do reduce flood insurance premiums.

"We're happy justice prevailed," Sykes says. "SV has a history of filing lawsuits against competitors, but this time we won."

Other companies that SV has filed lawsuits against include: AAA Louvers and Millworks, Inc.; USA Floodair Vents, LTD.; and Vinylast, Inc. They're all out of business now.

Energy Optimizers, USA and E2 Host ‘Clean Energy at a Crossroads’ event in Ohio

DAYTON, Ohio /ScoopCloud/ -- Recently, Energy Optimizers, USA co-hosted the E2 "Clean Energy at a Crossroads" event in Dayton, Ohio. In true energy-optimized fashion, the event was held at a renovated former steam energy plant in downtown Dayton. Energy Optimizers, USA founder and E2 Midwest Chapter Director, Greg Smith and staff organized the event, along with E2 Midwest Advocate Micaela Preskill.

Amid a backdrop of controversial state bills, like Ohio House Bill 6 (HB 6), and various rollbacks of fuel and emissions standards and other such policies, E2 and Energy Optimizers, USA gathered business leaders and lawmakers together to discuss ways of moving with positive economic and environmental decisions and policies.

Ohio House Speaker Pro Tem Rep. Jim Butler, among others, participated in discussions with more than 50 local business owners and interested parties. Butler defended his stance on the clean energy rollbacks of HB 6, but was receptive to the concerns of executives.

He said hearing from individual business leaders painted the conversation in a new light, and he appreciated the role that E2 and Energy Optimizers, USA played in bringing both sides together.

U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown shared the same views in this video he recorded for the event ( https://youtu.be/jWUEULr3KoQ ).

In addition to productive conversations between lawmakers and business owners, Energy Optimizers, USA founder Greg Smith announced that he will personally fund scholarships for 20 E2 Emerging Leaders members every year for the next five years. This major gift will help young, clean energy professionals become part of E2.

Gel Knee Pads for Work Made of Same Material Pro Athletes Wear

LONG BEACH, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Braxtly Tools now offers a work knee pad made from the same materials used by professional million-dollar athletes in protecting their knees, an advanced technology competitively priced for both professionals and DIYers.

The new Heavy-Duty Gel Knee Pads combat knee and joint pain commonly found from prolonged kneeling.

Made of high-performance EVA foam padding that molds to your knee and a rigid PVC outer casing shell that encompasses a gel core, the Gel Knee Pads acts like "a helmet for your knees," Braxtly Tools Spokesperson Justin Bowler said.

Most knee injuries are a result of constant prolonged exposure without the correct personal protective equipment (PPE). Our pads will also help workers and DIYers guard against abrasions, cuts, scrapes."

Long, adjustable polyester mesh straps are stress-tested to withstand constant use and breathe for all-day comfort; the straps fit legs up to 28 inches in circumference. Fasteners are reinforced so they won't break when you tighten the strap after a week of tile work, for example. And, the knee pads provide shock absorption, helping reduce compression pain often associated with kneeling on tile, brick, hardwood, or cement floors.

"Many other knee pads look like ours, but ours are specially designed with stress-tested industrial materials for prolonged durability and comfort," Bowler said. The company's product video demonstrates these claims.

"One in five American men and women suffer from knee pain," Bowler said. "Knee injuries often are a result of constant prolonged exposure without the correct Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). We feel our Heavy-Duty Gel Knee Pads will offer better results to protect workers against health and safety risks on the job."

The product is reviewed online here: Brief Review - Braxtly Tools Heavy Duty Work Knee Pads - http://elizabeth-house.org/brief-review-braxtly-tools-heavy-duty-work-knee-pads/.

Braxtly Tools offers a Manufacturer 100% guarantee and the pads are backed by a manufacturer 45-day money-back guarantee or one-year free replacement warranty. On Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Braxtly-Tools-Kneepads/dp/B07MXRLZLX/

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. /ScoopCloud/ -- ViewTech Borescopes will exhibit at 2019 PowerGen International from November 19-21 at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans. ViewTech sales consultant Joel Greene will conduct live demonstrations of the newly released VJ-3 video borescopes. This being ViewTech's first time exhibiting the VJ-3 at PowerGen International, Joel is anticipating several VJ-3 video borescope demo units being used in the field before the conference ends. In total, ViewTech will have three different borescope models to test drive at Booth #2958 during PowerGen International.

"Our clients tell us that the VJ-3 borescopes do the heavy lifting for 99% of their inspections," said Duncan White, Director of Sales and Marketing at ViewTech Borescopes. Many clients have found that ViewTech Borescopes, based in Traverse City, Michigan, provides the best borescope for their budget, along with meeting the vast majority of RVI and NDT inspection requirements.

"Our video borescopes are used in wind, hydroelectric and nuclear energy plants," said Green. "The VJ-3 is versatile at inspecting turbines, pumps in power plants, boiler tubes and heat exchangers. Our scopes work just as well those that are priced 3-4 times more."

VJ-3 Video Borescope:

The VJ-3 mechanical articulating video borescope is a nondestructive visual testing instrument used for the remote visual inspection of machinery, equipment and components. The VJ-3 facilitates the visual recording and photo documentation of an inspection and components in areas that are otherwise inaccessible or require great effort and expense to access directly.

Old Newsday Site Readies for Re-development into LEED-Certified Warehouse and Distribution Center

AMITYVILLE, N.Y. /ScoopCloud/ -- Art-Of-Form Architectural Services, PLLC, (AOF) a commercial, award-winning architectural firm, announces it's working with Hartz Mountain Industries to re-develop the old, vacated Newsday site. The project will include the design and development of two buildings that will be designated for industrial use.

Hartz Mountain plans to demolish the site's existing, approximately 400,000 square-foot building and construct two new buildings that would total nearly 1 million square feet. The buildings will be occupied as multi-tenant industrial, warehousing and distribution spaces.

Hartz Mountain is working with the Suffolk County Industrial Development Agency (IDA), which gave preliminary approval on more than $16.8 million in tax breaks to assist the company in redeveloping the site.

The site and buildings will be environmentally eco-friendly and LEED certified with a vast roof-mounted solar array. The solar array will generate an enormous amount of power. Height will be a huge feature with interior clearances in the range of 45 feet.

"The height alone distinguishes it from most industrial facilities in New York City and Long Island," Ray Caliendo, AIA, ASID, founding principal of AOF says. "Most other spaces allotted for this type of use don't come close to this height availability."

And, there's a high demand for warehousing and distribution space in the area, so this influx of quality space will significantly benefit many businesses and residents in the surrounding area. Project completion is estimated sometime in 2021 and is predicted to add 800 jobs with an annual payroll of $32 million to the region.

Mark Searage, co-principal, AOF, says that Hartz hired AOF because they wanted a "boots on the ground architect" that was highly experienced in commercial and industrial design and knew the locale and marketplace.

"Our history with such redevelopment and repurposing projects includes more than 2 million square feet of new or repurposed space at the former Northrop Grumman site in Bethpage, N.Y.," Searage says.

"We're extremely excited to represent Hartz Mountain in their initial development efforts on Long Island," Searage says. "There's no question that this is the right combination of capable and willing developer working in concert with a highly experienced architect to create a project unique to this locale."

AOF senior architect, Michael Brandt was instrumental in forging the relationship between Hartz Mountain and AOF.

AOF project manager, Rich Muesch and marketing director, Shari Goldberg are all excited to be on board with this project.

Capitol Fence Shares Popular Ways to Personalize Electric Gates

AUSTIN, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- Austin, Texas-based Capitol Fence, a leading fence and deck business representing the oldest fence contracting company serving Austin and the surrounding areas, recently shared with customers popular ways to personalize electric gates. Installing electric gates in Austin is growing increasingly popular with homeowners for the way in which they enhance a property's curb appeal and increase security.

"Automatic gates come in a variety of styles, materials and operating methods, all of which impact the final cost of the project - which is why we decided to share with our valued customers some popular ways to personalize them," says Mike Morrow, owner of Capitol Fence. "With electric gates, homeowners do not need to exit their vehicle when driving through them, as they're activated via remote control, voice, sensor or keypad, among other options."

"Beyond being faster to open compared to manual gates, automatic/electric types are easier to use because they do not demand any physical exertion to open them; what's more, they are more secure than manual gates as they're opened only by way of a designated code or device."

Starting with the process of installation for an automatic gate in Austin, Capitol Fence says installation varies significantly based on the type and style of gate, in addition to the system and material chosen. In most cases, the largest part of the installation cost comes down to the posts that hold the gate in place on either side. Sliding gates require tracks and specialized wheels, while swing gates require hinges. During this process, the mechanism needs to be set up and, in many cases, the sensor will need to be set and calibrated, and/or the remote set up so that the gate can operate.

"This can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on the size and style of the gate," adds Morrow.

Beyond installation, personalization is the matter of enhancement and improvement elements, including voice communication, in which drivers can communicate via intercom to the operator. Other ways to personalize a electric gates include keypads, which allow the user to input a code to open the gate; a card reader, representing a more secure way of granting access compared to keypads; and cameras, which can be added to the gate and enable an individual inside a residence to see who is approaching.

In addition to all these options, Capitol Fence also offers driveway and entry gates for Austin residents and commercial businesses that are custom-fabricated in our gate shop utilizing pre-galvanized steel, yielding gates that are powder-coated, not painted, so that proper fit and matching finish is realized.

"We offer our customers a vast array of styles and colors, along with unparalleled and maintenance/rust-free quality," concludes Morrow. "They can choose from economical basic styles or one-of-a-kind designs built to their specifications, providing their home with a distinctive aesthetic that sets it apart from pre-fabricated, 'off-the-shelf' gates."

Capitol Fence is located at 13724 Avenue K in Austin and can be reached by calling (512) 990-2530. For more information, and for a quote for electric gates, visit http://www.capitolfenceaustin.com/.

Capital Industries Shares the Top Reasons to Coat Industrial Floors

MATTITUCK, N.J. /ScoopCloud/ -- Capital Industries, a leading non-slip floor coating manufacturer, works with industrial companies on selecting the right floor coating. After years of impact and daily use, floor coatings can wear down. Without the protective coating, industrial floors are easily damaged by foot and vehicle traffic.

Deteriorating floors can lead to workplace accidents and reduce productivity. By coating or recoating industrial floors, there are many advantages available with epoxy.

1. Safety

Preserve the safety of industrial locations by adding a non-slip epoxy floor coating. KwikBond's Retrax is unique because it is not only non-slip, but also provides traction when oil, grease, water, and ice spills on it. It is also USDA approved for meat and poultry plants.

2. Durable

Industrial warehouses see a lot of vehicle traffic from forklifts from day in and day out. Having a tough coating is essential to last against the frequent use. KwikBond's Repox FC is an advanced formula coating system that provides an extended life for heavy traffic applications.

3. Strong Adhesive

Having an excellent bond to concrete is important. With Repox-HB, it bonds to not only concrete, but also block, steel, wood and almost any other sound surface. This industrial floor coating is best used in areas where floors need to be washed.

KwikBond's Retrax bonds to concrete and almost any other surface, including metal, wood, terrazzo, tile, and slate. It has a high bonding action that can also provide durability over time.

Uses for Floor Coating

Using epoxy provides a high strength, durable, and stable coating for industrial floors.

Uses include:
* Steps
* Ramps
* Exits
* Catwalks
* Fire stairs
* Processing areas
* Entranceways
* Equipment
* Loading docks

Living Landmark Approved for Route 202 in Flemington, NJ

NEWTOWN SQUARE, Pa. /ScoopCloud/ -- The Flemington, NJ Land Use Board has approved a Gateway Monument with a living wall to be constructed at the Flemington Circle on Route 202. This decision was rendered at the Board's bi-monthly meeting on October 22. The Monument will be constructed in a public private partnership with Catalyst Experiential.

The Flemington Living Landmark will include colorful landscaping, a living wall, a sign welcoming drivers to "The Historic Borough of Flemington," and an array of "solar trees" to provide renewable energy. The project will integrate a communications platform consisting of three digital displays that the municipality can use to broadcast emergency information and to help promote local activities and events.

"When I look at the rendering, I picture it coming alive -- and have an image of how beautiful this will be," said Tim Bebout, owner and chef at the Main Street Manor B&B in Flemington. "It's going to be lovely to have drivers pass trees and landscaping and to know that just down the street is one of the most beautiful towns in New Jersey and they should stop."

Flemington has been focused on the revitalization of underutilized properties in the Borough, and the rehabilitation of its historic Main Street. Like many communities, it seeks to improve life for residents and stand out from the sea of sameness that permeates our suburbs. Drivers often don't realize they are leaving one municipality and entering the next. Catalyst Experiential will take a derelict auto shop and transform it into a unique meaningful green space with a landmark to welcome visitors to the Borough.

"In the 90s I lived in Hunterdon County and used to pass through Flemington regularly," commented Eric Ascalon, Vice President of Development, Catalyst Experiential. "I remember the quaint, inviting Main Street-but the 202 commercial corridor bypassing the heart of town was nondescript, and had a dilapidated old service station in its midst. I'm very proud that Catalyst will be transforming this eyesore into an appropriate green gateway to welcome travelers to this wonderful community."

More on Catalyst Experiential:

Catalyst Experiential is redefining the physical form of communication by integrating visual communication technology with municipal landmarks, public safety facilities, and community gathering places. Imagine dog parks, pedestrian bridges, art centers, or fire stations that serve the public while enabling the local government, schools, charities, and businesses to speak directly to the community they serve.

Catalyst works closely with communities to understand their needs so that they can develop solutions at no cost to taxpayers. The solutions frequently transform the under-utilized property into a community asset that combines art, architecture, and advertising in a unique way.

MyKabin Officially Completes Its First Backyard Cottage as Seattle Detached ADU (DADU) Landscape Shifts

SEATTLE, Wash. /ScoopCloud/ -- MyKabin, a Seattle construction firm specializing in making it easier, faster and less expensive for homeowners to build a personalized and sustainable detached accessory dwelling unit, just completed its first backyard cottage build at a Madison Valley home.

This comes after citywide changes to a variety of regulations affecting accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and detached accessory dwelling units (DADUs) come into effect, loosening regulations and making it easier than ever for Seattle homeowners to build on-property dwellings. With their first backyard cottage officially completed and the city primed to welcome an expansion of DADU builds, MyKabin Co-Founders Clint Jones and Tom Todaro are eager to share their uniquely affordable, customizable and simplified DADU solution with Seattle-area families.

MyKabin spent almost a year working with the city, engineering every aspect of the design from the foundation to the roof. The time and technology investment allow them to offer an easy, hassle-free, turnkey option for building a backyard cottage at a price most Seattle homeowners can afford. For Ronnie & Wendy Cunningham, Seattle natives and owners of the newly finished inaugural MyKabin DADU, building a DADU in the backyard of the Madison Valley home bought in 1975 had been a goal for years. But after fourteen months of navigating the city's permitting process and receiving construction bids of over $300,000, the project seemed to be hitting insurmountable roadblocks. Enter MyKabin.

"No one else was doing this, building high-quality DADUs doesn't have to be as expensive or as complicated as traditional construction methods, the Cunningham's is the first cottage with six more around the city to be completed in the next few months. Consumer response has been very positive," says Co-Founder Tom Todaro.

MyKabin handles everything without sacrificing customization, from permitting and design all the way through construction, installation and inspection. This closed process is much more efficient than traditional building and allows them to guarantee a no-surprises price tag that's far below that of typical local options. With sizes from 250-1000 square feet and options for roof design and window/door placement in each, plus a nearly limitless interior canvas, homeowners have the ability to design the Kabin of their dreams without the headache.

At the base of MyKabin's smart, streamlined approach is the use of their exclusive Karry Beam foundation and other specialized foundation systems that are non-invasive and can be installed in as little as one day. Removing the need for heavy machinery, the foundation systems are more sustainable by allowing almost all of the existing landscaping to stay in place. Because MyKabin does everything for one installed price, they can guarantee a lower price that's completely transparent and unchanging, starting at $111,000 for small-size cottages.

"It was exactly what I needed, and night and day compared to what I was looking at with other options. It's a better product at half the price. When I heard about MyKabin, I told Tom I wanted to be their first customer," says Ronnie Cunningham.

For him and his family, MyKabin was the solution to make the dream of creating a cottage on their property achievable: turnkey, affordable, sustainable, customizable.

The Cunningham Kabin at 432 31st Ave E will play host to an open house from October 19-27, 2019, 8 a.m.-8 p.m. daily, allowing Seattleites a special up-close & in-cottage view of what a MyKabin build can be. MyKabin team members will be on hand to answer questions and to help visitors search to see if their home is eligible for a DADU.

With the city easing the path towards owning a DADU and MyKabin's simplicity, it's truly never been more accessible to construct an on-property dwelling for families wanting to offset housing costs with a rental property, hoping to extend the flexibility of a property for an aging or multi-generational family, or dreaming of outfitting a cottage for a special use. In a city badly in need of more diverse housing options, MyKabin hopes to make a positive, sustainable impact for both homeowners and tenants.

About MyKabin:

MyKabin is a Seattle-based construction firm specializing in affordable and sustainable, turnkey detached accessory dwelling units (DADUs). MyKabin reimagines the DADU construction process by focusing on creating beautiful, cottages with a minimally disruptive installation process that saves homeowners time, money and the hassle of a lengthy construction project. Handling the process completely from permitting through inspection, MyKabin removes the headache of hiring and coordinating from the homeowner, while simultaneously guaranteeing an upfront price that's more affordable than other construction methods.

DAPA Products Shares the Importance of Getting the Right Fit on a Screen Spline

JASPER, Ala. /ScoopCloud/ -- DAPA Products, a screen spline manufacturer and supplier, shares important tips to get the right fit in your window or door screen spline for repair. A screen spline is an essential element for window and door frames and helps them to remain secure.

Spline products that are currently on the market come in several different varieties that range in both shape and size. Different materials are utilized to manufacture splines. Finding the ideal fit and the right material is critical in getting the best performance out of a spline regardless of whether it is being used for a door or a window.

DAPA Products have gone to great lengths to manufacture the highest quality splines that are created from high-quality materials. This way, customers know that they are getting a product that is durable and will hold up for the long haul.

Choose the Right Material

Though several materials are out there that splines are manufactured from, vinyl splines and foam screen spline are the most popular options. A major factor behind this is the fact that both of these spline types are simple to install and have a strong durability to them. The team at DAPA manufactures outstanding foam screen spline that are well-known for their ease of use and installation.

The spline product options made available through DAPA Products include:
* PVC Flat Screen, Smooth Screen, and Ribbed Screen
* T and Per spline options
* Foam Screen, Foam Flat Screen, and Foam Ribbed Screen

Taking the Right Measurements

DAPA Products has some outstanding suggestions to make use of in getting the right screen spline measurements. The first suggestion is to use the old spline as a guidepost. This can be done by laying the spline on a flat area and then measuring its width with a tape measure. The diameter is determined through a measurement that goes from the opening's bottom to its top. The measurements that are discovered here should be used in purchasing a replacement spline.

Top Suggestions for Successfully Working With A Screen Spline

There are a few key pointers that the DAPA Products team provides in working with a spline. These include getting the right measurements to start with. The second thing to consider is purchasing a screen mouse or a roller made for spline installation as this is easier than installing through hand manipulation.

The DAPA Products team has a complete commitment to providing customers with the best service and highest quality products on the market! Customers love our commitment to bringing them the lowest possible prices as well. Contact a member of the team today at 1-800-229-3181 or visit https://www.dapaproducts.com to find out about getting the perfect spline to fit your needs.

Multiple New Developments in Dallas’ Medical District Proves Major Growth and Movement

DALLAS, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- Olerio Homes has launched its first townhouse development at Kimsey Place in the Medical District. With the area's population projected to grow by 12.5% from 2016 to 2021, this development couldn't come at a better time.

Containing 28 units, the first of four phases of townhomes is now available for sale or lease. With sale prices ranging from the high $300s to the mid-$400s, this housing should be attractive to the medical and higher education personnel who work in the district. The area is only minutes from downtown, Love Field, the Park Cities, area hospitals, universities, and major highways.

Olerio Homes' President, Lou Olerio, couldn't be more satisfied with the company's new venture. He says, "I had been looking for multi-family land for a while but didn't want to develop in East Dallas or The Cedars due to the market saturation. I was excited to find a pocket off Maple and Inwood that offers affordability, location, and a developing neighborhood in need of more housing options. I feel like Kimsey was a perfect fit."

With these homes' affordability and convenience comes a rapidly developing neighborhood-one of the hottest real estate markets in the area. That's not all. In the works is a Texas Trees Foundation project to make the area greener and more walkable which should increase property values for homeowners who get in on the ground floor of this new development.

With a job growth rate of nearly double the national figure that shows no sign of stopping, the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington area has become a magnet for job seekers all over the country. The state's low tax rate continues to attract many of the nation's top firms, with plans to relocate or establish branches in this growing region.

All that good news means that affordable housing will become scarcer as demand rises. To meet that need, Olerio Homes is pre-selling 24 patio homes in Modella Park, a gated development near Webb Chapel and Forrest. These homes will be available during the second quarter of 2020 and will be available at prices from the high $400s upwards.

With the land rush on the east side of I-75, Olerio explains, almost all land in the city's east side had already been bought. Since at the time Olerio Homes bought the new land, there wasn't much development on the west side of town, these new developments give buyers an option to own a home with as little as three percent down.

Combined with the area's potential for upside appreciation, this development's central location and proximity to hospitals, universities, and businesses make buying a home there an attractive opportunity for first-time homeowners and new residents.

Given Olerio Homes' reputation for classic design and world-class quality, Olerio points out, buyers can count on a home whose appeal will last through the years.

With an eye for classical design that follows innovative function, Olerio Homes (http://www.oleriohomes.com/) creates comfortable homes with timeless appeal. A passion for making the Dallas-Fort Worth area the best place on earth to call home guides everything they do.

All Roads to Lead to Orchid Bay with the Announcement of Belize’s $50 million Corozal-Sarteneja Road Project

SAN DIEGO, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- The Belize Tourism Board recently released its first half of 2019 tourism figures which showed a 6 percent increase in overnight visitors over 2018, says Legacy Global Development. Additionally, the Government of Belize announced that construction would begin next month on the $50 million Corozal-Sarteneja Road Project.

With Belize's significant tourism growth and the country's investment in new developments, Legacy Global Development, the developer of the luxurious Orchid Bay community, shares its insight on why now is a good time to buy real estate in Belize. Read about it in their latest blog post titled, "All Roads Lead to Orchid Bay."

"There's no doubt that Belize is one of the fastest-growing tropical vacation destinations in the world, offering visitors a mix of diverse cultures, eco-tourism, spectacular natural beauty, adventure, and ancient historical sites," said Chris Williams, CEO of Legacy Global Development. "As Belize tourism is booming, real estate sales are also prospering. We've experienced record home sales at Orchid Bay this year, with a total of 18 homes going under contract between January and July."

As tourism and real estate continue its upward trend, Belize is making a significant investment in new developments. The latest is the $50 million Corozal-Sarteneja Road Project, which also includes the construction of the Pueblo Nuevo and Laguna Seca bridges. Ground is expected to be broken on the project in mid-October.

This latest development will significantly improve the transportation network in Northern Belize, and will positively impact the country's overall growth and prosperity. For residents and visitors of Orchid Bay, it paves the road and installs bridges between Orchid Bay, Corozal, and Sarteneja, which will provide quicker and easier access to get to the property and to travel within the country. The regional airport in Northern Belize will be only minutes away.

The Sarteneja Road project is just one of several projects underway this year in Belize. In 2012, the government launched the National Sustainable Tourism Master Plan (NSTMP), which became the strategic guideline for tourism development in Belize up to 2030.

New developments in 2019 that fall under NSTMP include the Orange Walk Heritage Trail Project, the construction of a 50-person capacity, octagon-shaped shed at St. Herman's Blue Hole National Park, and the Boca del Rio project, which is the beachfront construction of a 10,000-square foot swimming area and seawall in San Pedro.

Additionally, construction has started this month on the new Caye Caulker Craft Market, which is part of Belize's strategic plan to enhance its tourism product for the enjoyment of both visitors and Belizeans alike and also to promote Belize's cultural appeal.

As Belize continues to show impressive growth as a top travel destination, and tourism improvements continue to move forward, especially in Corozal, the Northern region where Orchid Bay is located, it presents an excellent opportunity for real estate investors, retirees, and vacation homeowners who are choosing to buy homes in Belize.

Developed by Legacy Global Development, Orchid Bay is a gated community located on the Bay of Chetumal. It offers homeowners exquisite scenery, first-class amenities, and modern conveniences. And now, with the new Corozal-Sarteneja Road Project, residents will have quick and easy access to the best of Belize's offerings.

Orchid Bay's master plan calls for a series of canals and basins for easy navigation around the community, first-world infrastructure, and 10 percent green space set aside. Buyers have many types of homes to choose from, including Beachfront Condominiums, Waterway Villas, and Bungalows.

Legacy Global Development Shares Insider Knowledge on Why Belize Tourism is Growing at Such a Rapid Rate

SAN DIEGO, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- The Belize Tourism Board recently released its January - June 2019 Tourism Statistics which show remarkable growth. Legacy Global Development, the developer of the luxurious Orchid Bay community, offers insight on why Belize continues to rise and how it's related to the country's current real estate boom. Read about it in Legacy's latest blog post titled, "Belize Tourism in 2019: The Numbers Are in For the First Half of the Year."

"Belize is appealing to vacationers for many reasons," said Chris Williams, CEO of Legacy Global Development. "Its official language is English, it's easily accessible from many U.S. cities, and it helps that U.S. Dollars are accepted everywhere. Belize continues to be one of the few safe, tropical destinations that offer sustainability, captivating wildlife, and a mix of welcoming, exotic cultures."

Visitors are drawn to Belize for its 185-mile long barrier reef, tropical rainforests, ceremonial caves, beautiful beaches, and its ancient Mayan ruins. The country offers something for everyone, including families, honeymooners, and more, and appeals to nature lovers, adventure seekers, divers, beach bums, and history buffs.

A sample of findings from the Belize Tourism figures for January - June 2019, include:

* Belize welcomed 284,576 overnight visitors from January to June.
* There was a 6 percent increase in overnight arrivals over the first half of 2018.
* Belize had 697,767 cruise ship visitors from January to June.
* There was a 10.8 percent increase in cruise passenger arrivals over the first half of 2018.
* Visitors to Belize came from the United States (66.65 percent), Europe (11.8 percent) and Canada (7.6 percent).

As Belize continues to show impressive growth as a top travel destination, many travelers are choosing to buy real estate in Belize, as well.

Orchid Bay, as well as other areas, such as San Pedro and Placencia, are experiencing a surge in real estate sales. This shows that Belize's appeal to visitors is also spilling over to investors, retirees, and vacation homeowners.

Orchid Bay had a total of 18 homes going under contract between January and July.

"This sales boom is thanks to Belize's increasing tourism and the many benefits that the country offers homebuyers," said Chris Williams. "Such incentives include low property taxes, no estate or capital gains taxes, 100% foreign ownership, and the country's Qualified Retirement Program."

Located in northern Belize and developed by Legacy Global Development, Orchid Bay is a gated, master-planned community situated on a 114-acre site in the Bay of Chetumal. It combines North American comforts with a spectacular Caribbean setting. The development was influenced by innovations in community design that reveal small-town accessibility, connectivity, and convenience - all with respect to the natural environment. The master plan calls for a series of canals and basins for easy navigation around the community, first-world infrastructure, and 10 percent green space set aside.

Buyers have many types of homes to choose from, including Beachfront Condominiums, Casitas, Waterway Villas, Bungalows, and homesites and lots where buyers can build their own custom home. On-site amenities include the Tradewinds Beach Club and Restaurant, as well as a 7,700-square foot beach club with multiple swimming pools, a gym, restaurant, bar, lounging decks, and private beach access, which is currently in development.

An on-site grocery store and medical clinic are also projected to open in the future. Orchid Bay offers many activities and tours for its residents, all with easy access to the best of Belize.

Prime Retail Services Congratulates Leadership Program Graduates and Announces Release of New Self-Directed Online Leadership Training

FENTON, Mich. /ScoopCloud/ -- Prime Retail Services (https://primeretailservices.com/) will be presenting certificates to their two graduates from their in-house leadership training called L.E.A.D. (Leadership Empowerment and Development). Prime is now in the process of developing what they are calling L.E.A.D. 2.0 which will be an online self-directed training program for all employees from field techs to the leadership team.

The goal of this training is to equip every employee with the tools they need to be leaders in their job and communities. The award ceremony for their current graduates will be in Fenton, Mich., on Sept. 15.

"Our mission at Prime is to be great at managing projects and to make a lifetime impact on the people we encounter," says Donald Bloom, President and CEO of Prime Retail Services. "Our goal is to encourage each employee to complete the program, so they are personally better equipped to make an impact on people in their lives."

Eighty-three percent of organizations say it is important to develop leaders at all levels in their company, but surprisingly only 5% have fully implemented leadership development available at all levels. There is an obvious disconnect in these numbers. And whether it be the cost of implementation, the manpower and hours required to build out a training program, or possibly just the proverbial ostrich's head in the sand, companies are missing the mark when it comes to training and development from the bottom up. As a result, many companies are struggling to find people who can lead from within their organization or from external talent pools.

Prime has become aware of this leadership gap in their organization and are very excited about building and implementing a training program designed and tailored to the various parts of their company. The initial roll-out of what they call their L.E.A.D. Program, which stands for Leadership Empowerment and Development, was focused on their leads in the field. The two leads, Jeff Rodkey and Tevon Weaver, have both completed the initial training, affectionately called L.E.A.D. 1.0, and will be receiving their Prime-Certified L.E.A.D. certificates in Fenton, Mich., on Sunday, Sept. 15.

The second phase of the program will be pushed out at the beginning of 2020 with an entirely new batch of young leaders. This new program, L.E.A.D. 2.0, is designed to be an online, self-directed, and internally tracked leadership development course that will focus on six KPI's ranging from professionalism to safety.

Bloom continues by saying that Prime has "...the ability to make an intentional influence on everyone we work with through living out our core values of honesty, integrity, hard work, putting others above ourselves, and thanking God for his provision. I am encouraged to know that every employee at Prime will learn how to make their lives a success so that whether they retire at Prime or move to another career, we were able to make an impact."

Legacy Global Development Shares Its Top Reasons to Invest in a Beachfront Vacation Condo

SAN DIEGO, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Legacy Global Development, the developer of the luxurious Orchid Bay, Belize community, shares its insider knowledge on why investing in a beachfront condo is a smart investment, in a blog post titled, "Top 4 Reasons to Invest in a Beachfront Condo."

"As vacation rentals are becoming the better, more affordable alternative to hotels, real estate investors are jumping on this very intriguing and potentially lucrative trend," said Chris Williams, CEO of Legacy Global Development. "Thanks to rental portals such as Airbnb, HomeAway, and VRBO, there are hundreds of millions of vacation rental users worldwide, and these rentals are expected to topple the hotel industry."

"As a result of this growing trend, we've received more demand from buyers for beachfront real estate at Orchid Bay, Belize in the last year alone - more than we've seen in all of the previous years combined since we've taken over as the developer in 2016."

According to Williams, Beachfront Condos in Belize and other Caribbean and Latin American counties are appealing to real estate investors for many reasons. It can bring a high return on investment, a reliable income stream, and personal access to a desirable vacation locale.

According to the blog post, some of the top benefits of investing in a beachfront condo include:

* It exposes the buyer to lower risk than other types of real estate. Vacation homes in top tourist destinations attract many guests, so there's less effort to maintain high occupancy levels, and owners can charge higher nightly rates.

* Vacationers prefer to rent a condo because it's similar to staying at a hotel. There are on-site amenities and activities that bring people together for shared social experiences, whereas renting a beach house or villa does not offer that same advantage.

* A beachfront condo serves as a dual-use property that owners can rent out during peak travel times, and can stay at and enjoy the home with their family and friends at other times throughout the year.

* Many investors claim that their rental income from peak periods alone covers their condo expenses - like loan payments, property tax, insurance, and repairs - for the entire year.

* Thanks to real estate appreciation, beachfront condo owners are usually able to sell the property at a higher price than it was purchased for. These profits can then be used to invest in another property.

* Vacationers want to be as close to the beach as possible, and renting a beachfront condo is usually more affordable than staying at a beach resort or renting a beach house or villa.

The current surge in vacation home sales at Orchid Bay is directly related to Belize's rapidly growing tourism. Additionally, real estate buyers are attracted to Belize because contracts are in English, there are low property taxes, and no estate or capital gains taxes.

Tower-C is the third Beachfront Condo being built at Orchid Bay and will feature updated enhancements including high-end finishes, an open concept layout, an elevator, and is only steps away from the Caribbean Sea. Each Condo comfortably sleeps four - six people and has two private outdoor terraces, at least one which provides unobstructed water views.

Orchid Bay also offers Condo owners the option to participate in its Rental Program. This rental management program comes with a three-year rental guarantee and includes all marketing, logistics, and communication with renters.

Located in northern Belize and developed by Legacy Global Development, Orchid Bay is a gated, master-planned community situated on a 114-acre site in the Bay of Chetumal. It combines North American comforts with a spectacular Caribbean setting. The development was influenced by innovations in community design that reveal small-town accessibility, connectivity, and convenience - all with respect to the natural environment.

Current Builders In-house Training Program Transforms Hourly Laborers into Superintendents

POMPANO BEACH, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- The national labor shortage is hitting the construction industry with an especially hard punch, but South Florida's Current Builders (http://www.currentbuilders.com/) has developed a transformative program to help alleviate the crisis. CB University is a free, bilingual, in-house program that educates motivated workers who want to advance to the next level. The general contractor recently announced the addition of an NCCER Master Trainer and four NCCER Certified Teachers to their in-house program.

"There is much talk in the news of what has led to the construction shortage, including the demise of the unions, immigration issues, negative perception among students, but we need more focus on what can be done to prepare ambitious workers in their quest to succeed," said Chip Reid, Current Builders' CEO. "We are very proud of the accomplishments of CB University and our recent accreditations with the NCCER."

David Monahan, Brian McGeough, David Freeman and Leonicio Ulloa all received their NCCER Certified Teachers certificates, while CBU Director Eric Kennedy received his Master Trainer certificate.

With estimates of 300,000 unfilled jobs and percentages approaching 80% of companies saying their growth has been hampered by the shortage, the construction industry has been searching for ways to attract new workers and create loyal employees. Current Builders has utilized many successful programs including the ACE Mentorship program for high school students, internships and scholarships through the University of Florida's Rinker School of Construction Management and the active recruitment of women into the industry.

While this multi-pronged approach has been effective, the most progressive has been the success of CB University, which was launched about ten years ago and now has 150 employees taking classes each year with an 80% completion rate.

"We offer this program to any employee who wants to ascend to the next level. It is commitment on both our parts, but the rewards are tremendous," continued Reid.

Current Builders has many success stories, but the management team and teachers are particularly proud of how the program is supporting new immigrants and their desire to ascend from laborers into a management level positions.

"It takes tremendous dedication to work all day and then take classes," said Reid. "But watching hourly workers move up through the organizational structure to achieve high-paying superintendent salaries, is a very gratifying experience."

Current Builders invests an average of .125% of their annual revenues towards training, as this the recommended model. The company's commitment to this program is further exemplified by the in-house employees who completed the rigorous NCCER training to achieve their certificates in order to provide the best possible curriculum for their students.

About NCCER:

NCCER is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) education foundation created in 1996 as The National Center for Construction Education and Research.

The newly designed website features a re-brand of Moduline Cabinets' logo and color theme, as well as enhancements that include easier navigation and improvements to page speed and design for the shop, product, and information pages. The redesign is largely thanks to listening to customers' user experiences from navigating the website.
