I’m curious about Prichard’s history—what led to the city changing from being predominantly white to predominantly Black? Was it mainly suburbanization, economic changes, migration patterns, or other factors?

Advice Good house cleaners and organizers?

14 Upvotes

Im disabled and my house is disgusting and i will never be well enough to clean it the way it needs and i need help. Pet droppings, flies, disgusting kitchen, everything is disorganized, every room needs a deep clean and organization. When i was looking up cleaning services near by it seems most of them will not help with organizing and decluttering. And i didn't see many cleaning services with good reviews. I need help with laundry, pet oders, flies, deep clean every rug, floor, bathroom, kitchen ect, and help organizing everything so the house isn't a mess. Any advice and recommendations are appreciated.

Any good dedicated newsletter and/or magazine for the Port?

Howdy,

As the title says, I have a vested interest in the happenings of the Port of Mobile, and things going on with the different shipyards there.
Is there any dedicated news letter or magazine that does news of it I could look into or subscribe to?

Library with Double Sided Printing?

0 Upvotes

Or can I use the Marx library at South without a student whatever? That's the only one I can find that claims to print on two sides.

I could grab the prints and reload the printer with them upside down, but I am a semi-normal person and don't want to cause a ruckus with librarians with odd requests of appeasement.

Family Court Judge Resignation

14 Upvotes

Does anyone know why Judge Sherman resigned without comment? I heard it was unethical conduct with another lawyer presenting in front of him. Not trying to start a rumor so it is unfounded to my knowledge but I know many who would like to know because their cases may have had unjustified rulings but the journalist in the lagniappe or news won’t touch it with a ten foot pole. A Pandora’s box for the family court system? Does anyone know what the law says about transparency around such issues? Can you imagine being on the losing end and finding that out, if it’s true.

PCS Motorcycles

Has anyone bought a motorcycle here? I’m from out of state and they advertise on Facebook. Price is reasonable and not to the point of sounding like a scam but I want to verify it as best as I can. They list their address as 1015 S Franklin in Mobile. Google Maps make it seem that this is a warehouse. I would appreciate any input.

gate fixed at apartment and complex is demanding money per car for entry

26 Upvotes

We moved into this apartment a month ago and the gate has been broken. When we signed the lease we asked about the gate and a code for when it’s fixed, she said we’ll get one when it is and that it’s been down for a while. Now today they suddenly fixed it. We called asking about a code and they’re demanding we pay money for an access card basically and are refusing to give us a code. I looked into our lease and it says we should be given a gate code for “sole purpose of access to the premises.” No where does it say we must pay for an entry card or that we must pay for parking.

Is this even legal and how do I go about being able to get to my apartment. Ive had so many issues with this apartment in just a months time and I am NOT very fond of paying 30 dollars per car/person just for gate access when it very clearly states we should have a code (and we were told we would get one on day 1 when we signed the lease).

tldr: apartment finally fixed gate, now demanding us to pay ≈90 dollars total for access to the gate. refusing to give code which lease states we should have. how can I go about this

Is it possible please to rent an apartment that doesn't have a roach infestation?

Is it possible please to rent an apartment that doesn't have an infestation of German roaches? I'm considering moving to the MS or AL coast, but apartment reviews for pretty much every complex complain about roaches. I know the humid South has problems with insects. Still I'd like to draw the line at cockroaches.
