So the unanimous vote by the board was for option #1. The owner was willing to come down in price to $8000 and this past Tuesday, October 14th, the payment was made and ownership papers were given over to our director, Sasha, on behalf of PROMISE. Here are a few more photos of the plot, the existing building that will most likely come down, when we begin building Naomi’s Home.
Looking at the front door of the existing little home on the plot, back at the road,
the yellow pipe in the air is the gas pipe for the village,
so the gasline, it’s close.
This is a well on the plot, but the plot does have city water,
it simply needs to be hooked up/turned on again.
The house from the road. It sits in the north west corner of the plot.
The owner had the electric meter removed so folks couldn’t hook other equipment
up to it and have him be charged the expense. He is willing to help pay for the
hook up of the electricity again once we’ll need it for building Naomi’s home.
You can see in this picture, there is an electrical line coming into the existing building.
I hope while I am here in the States with Oksana to begin the designs for the women’s home.
The process we went through with Stephen’s home, we learned a lot. Planning to use what we learned
as a stepping stone as we go into designing Naomi’s home. Excited! The ladies will have a home too.
