FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What is the status of the aftermath of the explosion? CenterPoint Energy completed repairs of gas lines in the area on March 1. Because there is frost in the ground, some street and yard repairs are temporary in nature. Permanent repairs will be made in the spring. As a precaution, a "Sniffer Truck" may be seen driving through the area over the next few days monitoring gas levels. CenterPoint Energy is monitoring streets other than Arden Avenue. Residents who live on other streets should not be alarmed if they see the utility company working near their homes. The Edina Fire Department is gathering information and will meet later this week with representatives of other public safety agencies involved in the incident to complete a Post Incident Analysis (PIA) o...

Home design is where her heart is Anh-Minh Le, Special to The Chronicle Sunday, November 29, 2009                 As an English major at UC Berkeley, Laura Martin Bovard wrote her senior thesis on the home. In retrospect, she recently said, "it was a precursor of what was to come." After working in the restaurant industry for years, she enrolled in the interior design program offered by UC Berkeley Extension. While still in school, she landed a number of clients and established her own practice, Laura Martin Bovard Interiors (lmbinteriors.com). In the eight years since, she has worked on residences of varying scope all over the Bay Area. She also consulted on the interior for popular Oakland restaurant Wood Tavern, which is owned by her sister and brother-in-law. "I love the connection...

If you purchase real estate and place the property inside your IRA, you do not own it; your IRA owns the property. Since qualified plan law governs your IRA, the owner must adhere to Internal Revenue Service guidelines. Investment restrictions, custodial fees, distribution rules and, ultimately, income taxes must be paid. All proceeds must go back into the IRA and occupancy is not an option. In addition, if the real estate is a rental property, for compliance purposes, your custodian will appoint a property manager. If loans are used, the loan must be a nonrecourse loan (secured by the property but no recourse on any other assets). Commercial lenders usually do not engage in these types of loans, so the private sector (private investors, owner/seller financing, etc.) is your best option...

  COUNTRY CLUB NEIGHBORHOOD IS A Local & National Treasure   In 1922, when Minneapolis land developer and speculator Samuel Thorpe looked at the land now bordered by 50th Street on the south, Sunnyside Road to the north, Edgebrook Place on the west and Arden Avenue on the east, he saw more than farmer Henry Brown’s cattle peacefully grazing near the Edina Mill and George Baird’s prize Merino sheep on what is now Casco Avenue. Thorpe saw a place to build his dream. Between 1922 and 1934, Thorpe spent more than $1 million platting the Country Club Neighborhood’s 300 acres into 585 home sites. He landscaped, installed water, gas and underground wiring and laid sewer lines before allowing the first home to be built. Detailed deed restrictions were written controlling the values and styles o...
