Still no sight of any repairs having begun on the condemnded Shiloh Baptist Church properties today. The church has until May 31 to complete a list of repairs to four rowhouses on 9th St. NW before the city claims it will do the work on its own and place a lien on the properties to pay for them.

There is however a truck belonging to the Dept. of Health’s rat abatement program parked in the back alley today. No idea if it’s there to take care of the rat problem in these buildings — I’ll continue to keep an eye out for the truck’s driver to ask them.
