Pat Fiorentino 3:10 I am guessing most of you read the article in yesterday's newspaper about the city's growing trash problem. Mayor Watkins wants the city to address the issue right away, and he wants us to put together a list of recommendations to present at the next council meeting. Are there any initial thoughts?
Vickie Hill 3:11 I think a media campaign would be helpful. We can focus on the concepts of reducing, reusing, and recycling.
Lloyd Medrano 3:12 Sounds great. I couldn't agree more. But I also think we need to provide more containers to dispose of trash, especially in public areas and parks. The sanitation department has complained about a shortage.
Marcella Sanders 3:13 They also say they're understaffed. We could hire more employees, but the difficult part is figuring out how to pay for everything.
Dennis Kang 3:15 As long as you can come up with a solid plan of action, I can figure out how to supply the funding.
Pat Fiorentino 3:15 Thanks, Dennis. That will be a great help. OK, so I'd like us to meet tomorrow afternoon at 2:30 P.M. in conference room 3. We will have a brainstorming session, so write out your ideas and recommendations. Will that be a problem for anyone?
Lloyd Medrano 3:16 That works for me. I have a meeting at 4 P.M., though. Will we be done by then?
Dennis Kang 3:16 I'll be free. Maybe we should get the head of the sanitation department to come as well.
Marcella Sanders 3:17 I have the day off tomorrow, but I'll send some ideas to you by e-mail before I leave today.
Pat Fiorentino 3:17 We should be, Lloyd. Yes, Dennis, that's an excellent suggestion, so I'll give Edith Holmes a call right now. Thanks, Marcella.

22. What have Ms. Fiorentino and her colleagues been asked to do?
23. At 3:12, what does Mr. Medrano mean when he writes, "I couldn't agree more"?

Subject: Recommendation
Date: October 16

Hi Robert,

It was terrific seeing you at the tourism conference in Miami last week. I'm sure you'll agree the event was hectic but very productive and enlightening. -[1]-. Best of all, I came away with several new contacts who can help me promote my establishment, Oleandar Hotel. -[2]-.

Anyway, I recall you mentioning that you were looking for an events manager for the new resort opening in Orlando. -[3]-. The marketing manager currently working for me here in New Orleans will be relocating to Orlando next summer, and she will be searching for employment.

Her name is Anna Harwood, and I have known her for six years. Currently, she oversees a staff of about 30 employees and presides over most client meetings for her department. -[4]-. She has been fantastic to work with here at the Oleandar, so I can guarantee you wouldn't be disappointed.

If you are interested and the job is still available, I can give Anna your e-mail address so that she can send you her résumé and possibly arrange a phone interview.

Take care!

Kimberley Phillips

There May be Hope for Small Regional Retailers After All!
By Doris Bentley

In the highly competitive world of retail sales, it's difficult for inexperienced entrepreneurs to turn a profit when the cost of renting a store or shop is so high. But regional retailers don't need to look any further now than the Bradford Retail Cooperative building, opening on March 1. -[1]-.

The cooperative is located in the building formerly occupied by the Mega-B-Mart superstore on the outskirts of Bradford City. In partnership with the city government, Phoenix-Star Properties has updated the structure and renovated it to house 160 small retail booths. Director of Phoenix-Star, Brenda Nixon, said, "the old structure was an eyesore ever since the store it once held went bankrupt. -[2]-. Through a very small investment, we have been able to revitalize the building into a location that is not only useful to the community but will help improve local economic conditions as well."

Phoenix-Star Properties provided half the funds for the structural changes, and the rest came from the city development budget, which is funded by local taxes. -[3]-. "We are really excited about the opening! And given Phoenix-Star's incredible success doing similar projects with other abandoned buildings in locations across the country, I am sure we will experience the same popularity here," said city government spokesperson, Beatrice Guzman.

The retail units will be available for rent to artisans, craftsmen, and private businesses owners from the region. With rental rates starting at as low as $500 per month, Phoenix-Star has confirmed that 90 percent of the spaces have already been filled. It seems clear that the Bradford Retail Cooperative building is already popular with local entrepreneurs. -[4]-.

29. What is the topic of the article?
30. What is indicated about Phoenix-Star Properties?
31. What is NOT true about the Bradford Retail Cooperative building?
32. In which of the positions marked [1], [2], [3], and [4] does the following sentence best belong? "However, it still remains to be seen whether local shoppers will like the place as much."

Paul Thorntree
Spotless Cleaner's
145 Market Drive
Newark, NJ

Dear Mr. Thorntree,

I recently had three jackets dry cleaned at Spotless Cleaner's. Unfortunately, when I got home and looked at one of the jackets, I noticed there was a large rip on one of the sleeves. I immediately returned the item to your building on Market Drive, but the sales clerk told me that the company was not responsible for any damages incurred during cleaning. I have been doing business with Spotless Cleaner's for three years and have always received excellent service, but I am quite distressed about this recent incident. I would like the company to pay for the repair of this item, and to give me a full refund on the cost of dry cleaning all three items. Please contact me as soon as possible to discuss the matter. I can be reached Monday to Friday after 6 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday any time. My home number is 632-365-1456. You can also reach me at my office at 653-362-9876.

Regards,
Linda Applebee

PFS Service Request Form

Name: Gwyneth Pierce
E-mail: gpierce@spspa.com
Phone: 555-9622
Address: 84 William Street, New York, NY 10038
Company: Serene Peace Spa

Details:
I would like to replace my outdated deluge sprinkler system. I was on your site reading about the different types of sprinklers available. I think wet pipe sprinklers would be good to have in each treatment room of my spa as they seem to be low-maintenance and more cost-efficient than a dry-pipe system. However, the lobby of my business contains a lot of valuable items that could easily be damaged if the sprinklers were to go off accidentally. I read that pre-action systems are far less sensitive than other types of sprinklers and will only go off when temperatures reach those of an actual fire. So, I'd like to have a pre-action system installed in this area only.

TO: John Boone
FROM: Gwyneth Pierce
SUBJECT: Problem
DATE: April 15

Hello,

I didn't have time to check everything before you and the installation crew left yesterday, but I noticed a problem this morning. I requested a different type of sprinkler system for the lobby, but the one installed is the same as the ones in the other rooms. I checked my request form, and the information is there. So, I would like the system to be changed to the one initially asked for as soon as possible. Please let me know when I can expect the work to be corrected.

Regards,

Gwyneth Pierce
