by f flood victims dispute compensation payments by Paul Wiecek staff reporter Grande Pointe on the Bob Wosner and Garry Petryk seem to have a lot in they both live in Grande they both have Well appointed Homes damaged by the flood and they both suffered the double wham my of having Home operated Busi Nesses washed out but talk to the two men about who to blame and who should pay for the damage caused by the flood and Wosner and Petryk sound As though they live on different Conti rather than a Block i want 100 per cent no every Petryk said Nat ural resources screwed up and now its time for them to Wosner disagree nobody owes us he people need to Start taking some responsibility of their in hoping for some Relief Money but theres a Tot of people ahead of people with a lot less than and that the Way it should make no both men Are anything but but they have both suffered staggering at Patryks the entire base ment and main floor has been reduced to two your Fram ing is All that left of what were once bedrooms and bathrooms and living the shop beside the in which Petryk once operated his haul ing fared Little with water damage climbing metres up the this is All going to take glue to rebuild and that glue is dollars and Petryk at Wosner the basement has been gutted but the most devas Tating damage is in his shop out a custom metalworking shop does not weather floods
