DA’s office in ‘final stages’ of securing records in township bank fraud case By Richard L. Gaw Staff Writer In an effort to keep its residents informed and bring calm to a rising windstorm, the Kennett Township Board of Supervisors provided an update at their June 5 meeting that said the Chester County District Attorney’s Office

and a forensic accounting firm are in the final stages of securing records and documents related to the investigation of suspicious transactions discovered in its bank accounts, which was first reported by the banks’ fraud department on April 25. During the meeting, board

The East Marlborough Township Board of Supervisors approved a conditional use order for a convenience store along Route 1 at their June 3 meeting, but not without considerable discussion and frustration on the part of the applicants. Attorney John Jaros represented Royal Farms, a convenience store which is planned as part of a complex that includes a gas station, medical office and bank on land that was formerly a gas station. A list of conditions was placed on the application by the supervisors. Adherence to the conditions is necessary for the approval to

proceed. The Royal Farms store is planned to be across Route 1 from the Schoolhouse Road outlet from Walmart. It will be very close to the merging point of traffic traveling north and east of Baltimore Pike out of Kennett Square and Route 1. The essence of the disputes came when the supervisors tried to work out what the applicants were going to do about the increased traffic and who was going to pay for it. In the original list of conditions, number 24 imposed an impact fee of $257,472 on the applicants – an amount that was supposed to cover road repairs and construction. But the Continued on Page 3A

chairman Scudder Stevens confirmed that the investigation is exploring the township’s bank transactions as far back as a decade. “We are looking at this very closely now, and have already put into effect changes in policy to understand what’s happening, and make sure that nothing occurs in

the future,” he said. “Take that as understanding that this investigation is crucial for understanding the problem, and that’s the reason why we want a forensic auditor, who is going to look at every transaction for the last ten years, to find out what has happened.” In an opening statement

read before about 30 residents, Stevens said that all township employees have been asked by the District Attorney not to discuss the specifics of the case, in order to avoid sharing details that would jeopardize the case. He did, however, share that Police Chief Lydell Nolt Continued on Page 2A

Pictured from left to right are Officer Stephen Madonna, Lieutenant Joseph Greenwalt, Deputy Chief Michael King and administrator Sandy Lutz.

By Richard L. Gaw Staff Writer On April 23, the Southern Chester County Regional Police Department (SCCRPD) Public Safety Commissioners and the Avondale Borough Council agreed to an 18-month, $90,000 contract with the regional police to provide

24/7 coverage to the borough’s 1,400 residents beginning on July 1. On June 4, several members of the regional police welcomes members of their new constituency to a town hall meeting at the Avondale Fire Company, to introduce themselves to their new neighbors. Police Chief Gerald

Simpson and several officers gave the 40 residents in attendance a one-hour overview of all police operations, and how the coverage of the borough will meld with the department’s policing of its existing “sectors” – New Garden Township with its 12,000 residents over 16.3 square miles, and West Continued on Page 3A

recently received a joint memo from the investigators – both the DA’s office and Marcum, LLP – a forensic auditor hired by the township to pore through the township’s records – that said they “are in the final stages of securing records and documents, both from internal and external sources,” Stevens said. “As we speak, the analysis and qualification of those documents and records are being actively pursued by both the accountant and investigators jointly. We anticipate that this analysis will continue for an extended period of time. It is important that all pertinent documents and records are reviewed. “We continue to internally review Township operations, and take corrective actions when appropriate, to ensure the proper functioning of both financial and operational matters,” Stevens continued. “We will have more to report on these matters at the appropriate times – in keeping with the constraints asked of us by the investigators.” Stevens concluded his statement by thanking township employees, including

its police force, “who have risen to every challenge they have faced in recent weeks,” he said. “I would also like to thank the citizens, friends, service providers, vendors and others here in Kennett Township who have been understanding, supportive and patient during the past month.” Only a little more than one month old, the arc of the investigation to uncover possible fraud in the township has already encountered several twists and turns. On May 11 at 10:15 a.m., the Chester County Press received an email from a Kennett Township Supervisor, with a headline that read “Important Kennett Township Announcement,” informing the Press that the township was exploring suspicious transactions discovered in its bank accounts. At noon that day, a letter was sent to township residents that began, “The Board of Supervisors pledged to you to have an open and transparent government. In keeping with that pledge, we are writing today to inform you about a serious situation. Rest assured, the supervisors are taking every step to safeguard the Township and our residents.” The second paragraph read, “On Thursday, April

25, 2019, the supervisors were notified by the Fraud Department of our bank that they had found a number of suspicious transactions on Township accounts.” The release also stated that the supervisors carefully reviewed the findings with the bank, and legal and law enforcement representatives, and immediately referred the matter to the Chester County District Attorney’s Office. Also, steps were taken to make sure no further unauthorized transactions take place. On May 15, Stevens began the supervisors’ meeting by reading a prepared statement. “Tonight, I am sad to say that we need to begin this meeting by reporting on a disturbing event that took place in our township,” he said. “When we took office, the board promised that the government of Kennett Township would be open and transparent. That is why when we discovered this matter, that we quickly informed our constituents about the investigation. The same day we learned of these suspicious transactions, acting on the advice Police Chief Nolt and our legal counsel, we turned the matter over to the Chester County District Attorney’s Office to investigate, to see what laws were violated.” Stevens continued his statement, and told the audience that the investigation will be “absolutely impartial and unbiased.” He repeated the fact that the township has hired forensic auditors from Marcum, LLP, and later told the audience that the township has also hired image and branding consultant Carl Francis. The auditors’

report on the investigation, he said, is expected to be available by the early fall. Stevens then fielded several questions from the audience, many of them having to do with the township’s system of checks and balances regarding the authorization of check writing. Stevens said that one signature is required for township checks up to $2,000; and that two signatures are required on township checks for more than $2,000. While the audience continued to press the supervisors for information, Stevens responded by saying that sharing specific information would “have a compromising effect on that investigation.” “It would be easy for me to tell you what I experienced, but I’m only one player,” he said. “If I put any kind of spin and give you an explanation based on my vision, that’s me speculating. It needs to be done by an objective party who is investigating this thoroughly. That’s the DA on one side, and the forensic auditor on the other, and there’s no speculation on their part. At the center of the controversy is former township manager Lisa Moore, who was formally dismissed by a vote of 3-0 at the June 5 meeting. Moore was placed on paid administrative leave at the start of the investigation, and was dismissed from her job on May 17, in connection to the suspicious transactions discovered in the township’s bank accounts. In an official township release, Moore’s dismissal came “after new information

was discovered and brought before the supervisors,” it stated. “The dismissal action was coordinated with the township’s legal and human resources representatives.” In other actions related to the investigation on June 5, the board voted unanimously to officially ratify the hiring of Alison Rudolf as interim township manager, whose term began on May 28. Rudolf had served as the township manager for Lower Moreland Township for 26 years. During the past 10 years, Rudolf has served as an interim manager in other municipalities. Stevens said that Rudolf is earning $100 per hour, and the supervisors are responsible for overseeing her work. The board also ratified the hiring of David Woglom, associate director of the Robert B. and Helen S. Meyner Center at Lafayette College, to assist the township in coordinating an appropriate search for a permanent township manager. An updated job description for the position is currently being developed, and it is being advertised on the township’s website. With Rudolf’s hiring, the burden placed on the three supervisors to pick up the slack in the wake of Moore’s dismissal has lessened considerably, “which is not to say that we are not following up in a very active and regular way, virtually every day, in some capacity,” Stevens said. “It may not be the eight to ten hours initially we were working, but it is still a significant amount of time.” Township solicitor David Sander shared that the supervisors met in execu-

PennDOT said that they anticipate reopening the bridge in early- to mid-July. Sander said that the longclosed Stephens Gardens Creations, Inc. and Stephens Aquatic Services, located at 257 Kennett Pike in Chadds Ford, is under agreement of sale. Sander said he did not know the specific details about the agreement, such as the closing date of the purchase or the sale cost of the property. For the past several years, the Stephens property has become an eyesore for township residents, specifically those who live in the 26-home Hillingham residential development, located behind the property. In March, ten residents of Hillingham attended a board meeting at the township, where they shared their frustration of living adjacent to the abandoned business, that has been repeatedly cited for health and safety violations. Sander said that the township’s chief role in getting the site cleaned up is to enforce its property maintenance code against the new owners of the property, and have the zoning and code enforcement officers issue notices of violation. Timothy L. Jones, principal and general counsel for Montchanin Builders, LLC, discussed revisions for a “planned village” in the township, which his company is developing a ten-acre lot at the corner of Ways Lane and Cypress Street. Jones told the board that the project is in its initial design phase, which calls for apartments, walking trails, pocket parks, underground parking and a shopping plaza. Tom Comitta, the township’s landscape architect consultant, said that the project’s design guidelines are listed in Appendix F of the township’s Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance, issued last September, that include standards regarding public space and open space; building design and height; streetscape elements; parking lot design; and perimeter buffers. Jones referred to the planned development as potentially becoming “a new gateway coming into the borough.” “When Mr. Jones and his design team took the topographic design survey and took the earlier concept plan, they were willing to be held accountable to these fashion police quality control measures that we’ve been trying to impose to ensure higher quality development,” he said. While Comitta said that several “fussy edits” and zoning issues still need to be ironed out in the initial design concept for the planned project, Comitta encouraged the board to seek the input of the Chester County Planning Commission and the township’s Planning Commission and then set a date for a hearing. The board approved the motion, 3-0. To contact Staff Writer Richard L. Gaw, email rgaw@chestercounty.com.

Local News Oxford English teacher receives county-wide Heart of Learning Award Oxford Area High School English teacher Carynne Burnett is the countywide recipient of the 2019 Citadel Heart of Learning Award for secondary school teachers. Sponsored by Citadel Federal Credit Union and the Chester County Intermediate Unit, the annual award recognizes the outstanding job Chester County’s teachers perform in educating and caring for our young people. In March, Mrs. Burnett was named the Oxford Area School District’s finalist for the county award. At that time she received a finalist trophy and $500 for classroom use. Along with 14 other finalists for the county award, Burnett attended the annual Heart of Learning banquet on May 7. As winner of the award for secondary school teachers, she received another trophy and an additional $1,500. “The banquet was awesome, and incredible, and overwhelming,” said Burnett. “Citadel does such a great job of making every teacher feel special. I felt special from the moment I walked into the ceremony, but I wasn’t even really thinking about this leading to an ultimate award. I was thinking, ‘Wow, they really make teachers feel so good.’” Burnett was moved by how the entire awards banquet centered not only on the award finalists, but the impact that Chester County’s teachers have on young lives. The finalists

themselves were featured in a video which included footage of their classroom lessons and students reading from their nomination letters. Burnett said her feelings were only heightened when her name was announced as one of the evening’s three award winners. “I was in shock, and I wasn’t really prepared,” she said. “I did not sound like an eloquent English teacher when I made my remarks!” For Burnett, the highlight of the ceremony was having her husband, Joe, and their daughters with her at the banquet. “My husband does so much to help me be the best teacher I can be,” she said. “Things like just being so patient at home when I’m grading papers for hours are incredibly supportive. “Both my daughters are so supportive as well,” she said of Belle, a sophomore at OAHS, and Jaycie, a third grader at Nottingham Elementary School. “My oldest was just crying when I returned to our table after accepting the award. To see how proud she was meant so much to me.” Also attending the banquet was Oxford Area High School Principal James Canaday. “Mrs. Burnett is a true professional and model educator,” he said. “She cares about her students and exemplifies this through her words and interactions with them on a daily basis. In the classroom, Mrs. Burnett sets the bar high for all students and works with

them to meet their fullest potential. Burnett grew up in Exton loving to read and write. “I always wanted to think about what I would read and apply it world situations, and because I also loved to write, my strengths always lent themselves to English,” she said. At the same time Burnett knew she wanted to pursue a career in education. “I always wanted to be a teacher, and it was my late high school and early college years that really solidified teaching high school English as the career I wanted,” she said. She earned a bachelor’s degree in English from West Chester University in 2002 and began teaching at Oxford Area High School in 2004. She received a master’s degree in Professional and Secondary Education from West Chester in 2012. Burnett currently teaches ninth and 12th grade Honors English and 12th grade AP literature and composition. She is the faculty advisor to the Class of 2021 and the National English Honor Society, which recently sponsored the high school’s first Speech Contest to great response from the student body. Burnett’s 15 years in teaching have seen massive changes in how young people consume and understand literature, with advances in technology having an impact both at home and in the classroom. “With the internet and social media, the relevan-

ence to join the department in its efforts to keep their community safe. “We’re only going to be as effective as the partnership we build with you,” he said. “There’s only a handful of us doing the job. This is your community. Have a stake in it and help us fight crime and make it a better place to live.” The town hall also introduced Officer Stephen Madonna, who will be primarily assigned to patrol the Avondale Borough and Officer Mario Raimato, the department’s school resource officer in the Kennett Consolidated School District. Adding the borough to its coverage area couldn’t arrive at a better time for both borough residents and the the regional department. The SCCRPD’s new $4.3 million facility on Gap-Newport Pike is scheduled to open for business by September, and it’s just to the south of Avondale’s southern border.

Having regional police presence in the borough will cost about $68 per resident, Simpson said, but for that price, borough residents will soon become the beneficiaries of a 6.8-minute average response time to police calls made to the SCCRPD. As part of the presentation, Simpson also praised the partnerships the SCCRPD enjoys with several local agencies, such as the Crime Victims Center of Chester County and the Domestic Violence Center of Chester County “to help deliver services or information to our communities,” he said. “Sometimes in law enforcement, we get a complaint and go on to the next complaint. And when we stop, sometimes these victims are still in need of service. That’s where these organizations come in.” In introducing himself and his officers and his support staff to the audience, Simpson said that it was one of the strongest teams he has

Grove Borough, which has 2,900 residents in a .65-square mile radius. Simpson was joined by Deputy Chief Michael King and Lieutenant Joseph Greenwalt in walking the audience through the SCCRPD’s day-to-day operations, which includes the executive division, the patrol division and the special operations division, which works with a criminal investigation unit and handles the investigation of serious and complex crimes. The presentation introduced the audience to the many social media applications they can use to connect to the police for service and to collect or share information, such as Facebook, Twitter and Crimewatch. Greenwalt stressed the importance of community to be proactive in helping the department solve crimes and maintain safety in the community. “We’ve done it New Garden. We’ve done in West Grove. It works,” he said. “Everything that is important to you is important to us.” In an effort to be transparent, “We’re publishing our arrest warrants to let you know that we’re out there, doing what we said we would do,” King said. “We’re arresting criminals. We’re arresting drunk drivers. We’re following up on investigations, and we’re hoping that while this is that individual’s worst day ever, maybe it will be a deterrent to not driving drunk in our jurisdiction, or maybe they won’t commit a crime.” King encouraged the audi-

cy of the literature I teach changes a bit,” she said. “All literature is relevant, but the relevancy changes depending on what’s happening in our society and the world at large.” Burnett agreed that the technological advances of the past 15 years have had the greatest effect on how she teaches and how students learn. “When I started teaching, the technology was not so accessible to the students – I did not fight the cellphone battles,” she said. “I’ve read many studies on the benefits of reading from an actual book as opposed to reading on an electronic device, but trying to have students read from a print book becomes more and more challenging.” For Burnett, these changes are simply a result of a society that now, more than ever, offers individuals

the opportunity for instant gratification. “With that, it can be harder for students to understand that writing takes work and constant revision,” she said. “The first thing they write it is never going to be the final product. Having everything at our fingertips has changed the traditional mindset of knowing you’ll have to write more than a first draft to write successfully.” Burnett will take the summer to think about how she will use the $2,000 in award money for her classroom in the new school year. “I’m thinking about a new series of books, or equipment to make the classroom more comfortable for the students and more conducive to learning,” she said. “It will go back to the students, because they really gave me this award.”

worked with in his 36 years of law enforcement. “We are guided by our four core values – human life, integrity, justice and duty – but there are other qualities about us that shape us as a police organization,” he said, referring to the department’s motto. “We are united to serve our communities with excellence.” “Our mission is to serve you,” King told the audience. “You are now a part of our family, and we want

to make a very good first impression with you. I think you will be very pleased with the visible police presence of our agency, beginning on July 1.” To learn more about the Southern Chester County Regional Police Department, visit www. sccrpd.org.

supervisors also included in earlier conditions that Royal Farms would pay for substantially more road work. As the supervisors discussed the scenarios and assessed the costs of providing the solutions, the question was raised of who was going to pay for it all. Township engineer Jerry Baker said roadwork to handle all the work would cost substantially more than the $257,472 impact fee. In fact, he said, it could reach nearly $1 million. But Jaros countered that since Route 1 is a state highway, PennDOT would pay for it. He added that asking for more improvements to Schoolhouse Road on the other side of Route 1 was excessive. Supervisor Bobby McKinstry mentioned that Schoolhouse Road (the exit ramp of Walmart) is a township road, and township residents should not have to bear the excessive costs. The discussion went on for the more than an hour and a half, concluding with the supervisors approving conditions that would require Royal Farms to bear a large percentage of the costs, while Jaros was still frustrated and hinting that there could be an appeal. In other business, the supervisors approved the refund of a 2014 sewage plant bond issue in order to substitute a recent bond that has a better interest rate. They approved joining other municipalities to hire a firm to renegotiate the franchise agreements with internet providers. They also agreed to set a date for their representatives to meet with the PoMarLin and Longwood fire chiefs to discuss future changes in the water shooting capacities of fire hydrants, and whether the current shortfall in thrust could be made up by increasing the number of tankers arriving at the fire.

Kennett Square Borough to move forward with EV charging station By Steven Hoffman Staff Writer In small towns and big cities across the U.S., electric vehicles are becoming more popular. Kennett Square Borough Council recently authorized the staff to pursue an EV charging station that would allow motorists with electric vehicles to charge the batteries. At the June 3 council meeting, borough manager Joseph Scalise explained that the borough had obtained a grant for $10,000 for the EV charging station. Initially, council approved a total expenditure of $11,000 for the project, which meant that the borough would contribute $1,000 in addition to the grant funding. But after exploring the mechanics of establishing an EV charging station, it was determined that the total costs will be closer to $12,500, not $11,000. For that reason, the issue was back on council’s agenda. Scalise noted that motorists will use an app to pay for charges at the EV charging station, so the borough will recoup the costs of expenditures

over time. Mayor Matt Fetick explained that he used to own an electric car so he is familiar with EV charging stations. He explained that motorists with electric cars sometimes decide where to eat or stay based on the availability of EV charging stations. An app allows them to know where they can pick up a charge. For this reason, having an EV charging station in the borough is an asset. “People will go where there are charging stations,” Fetick explained. Ultimately, council decided to move forward with authorizing the EV charging station despite the minimal cost increase. “I think it’s wise to move forward on this,” explained council member Peter Waterkotte. Scalise said that they will continue to look for a sponsor for the EV charging station. In other business at the meeting, council president Doug Doerfler announced that he has appointed new council member Lorenzo Merino as the chairperson of the Finance Committee. Merino joined council when he was tapped to

fill a vacancy last month. Kennett Square Borough resident Pauline Michel was appointed to serve on the borough’s Shade Tree Commission. Scalise explained that there were two vacancies on the three-person commission, and Michel expressed interest in filling one of them. Council member Ethan Cramer thanked Michel for being willing to serve on the commission. Borough council approved a bid award for 2019 paving in place projects to Long’s Asphalt. There was some discussion about the procedures that are used to determine which streets get paved each year. Council member Dr. Brenda Mercomes shared that the second annual Juneteenth Celebration is planned for Saturday, June 15 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. The activities around town include a movie being shown at the Kennett Library, re-enactors making a presentation in the East Linden neighborhood, and a pop-up museum focused on the Underground Railroad. “We think there will be a very good program,” Mercomes said. “There may even be a few surprises.”

Borough council approved the certificates of appropriateness for HARB applications for signage at 108 East State Street and 127 East State Street, as well as for the construction of a detached garage at 234 North Garfield Street. The HARB board had previously considered the three applications and offered its support to all three. Kennett Square Borough officials took the opportunity to honor Karen Scherer, who is retiring after serving as a borough employee for more than 16 years. She has served in a variety of roles through the years, working as the borough secretary and assistant to the borough manager at the time of her retirement. She was the go-to person for a wide range of issues, and borough officials took turns expressing their gratitude for her work. Doerfler presented Scherer with a proclamation. Scherer thanked everyone for their well wishes, and also thanked Kennett Square Borough residents for letting her serve them through the years.

Over 25 local businesses stepped forward to support the ride and 130 riders came out on a drizzly Sunday morning to participate. The two-hour trip crossed eight covered bridges in the area. The ride wrapped up at the

Happy Birthday, Bobbie! Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop, an acclaimed restaurant franchise that first opened its doors in 1976 in the Little Italy section of Wilmington, Del., will be celebrating its birthday on June 13 by offering $5 small Bobbies all day in select locations. The Bobbie, often referred to as Thanksgiving on a roll, has been spotlighted in Esquire

magazine and on the Food Network, and in 2009 AOL. com named it “The Greatest Sandwich in America.” The first Capriotti’s opened without any aspirations of being anything more than a local hoagie shop where they slow-roasted whole turkeys in-house overnight. As its popularity grew, the founders’ friends and family began wanting to expand

Capriotti’s in their respective areas, and as a result began franchising in 1987. After moving to Las Vegas in 1991, the founders opened a location in the city and began franchising locally after gaining a foothold in the region. The concept filled a void in the sandwich category with its fresh, homemade premium product and unique flavor profiles.

In 2008, best friends and business partners Ashley Morris and Jason Smylie purchased Capriotti’s after being multi-unit franchisees for three years.

Expanding human life, integrity, justice and duty

Pa. lawmakers should increase Medicaid funding

On June 4 at the Avondale Fire Department, several members of the Southern Chester County Regional Police Department (SCCRPD) introduced themselves to residents of the Avondale Borough. It was for a good reason; in late April, the SCCRPD Public Safety Commissioners and the Avondale Borough Council secured an 18-month, $90,000 contract with the regional police to provide full-time coverage to the borough’s 1,400 residents starting July 1. Avondale is less than a month away from becoming the third municipality under the regional police department’s watch, joining New Garden Township and its 12,000 residents, and West Grove Borough, which has 2,900 residents. All told, that’s a police coverage area of close to 18 square miles and nearly 17,000 residents. It’s an accomplishment that has been measured not just by numbers by a commitment to safety and vision, one made even grander considering that when Police Chief Gerald Simpson first conceived of establishing a regional police department in 2014, several naysayers thought the idea would never work. “Simpson’s Folly,” many called it. A few local police departments and municipalities took an early interest in the concept but eventually left the fold. Backed by the support of the New Garden Township Board of Supervisors, the SCCRPD Public Safety Commissioners, West Grove Borough leaders and a dedicated roll call of officers, detectives and administrators, Simpson pressed on. His continuing mantra, heard in nearly every interview and at nearly every presentation, was “We are better together than we are apart.” On Jan. 1, 2017, the SCCRPD went live, becoming the area’s first regional police department. Since then, Simpson, Deputy Chief Michael King and Lieutenant Joseph Greenwalt have established goals for the department’s executive, patrol, investigative and special operations units. Together, the department has established a Best Practice Policing policies in compliance with accreditation standards. In 2018, the department increased the number of DUI arrests in their jurisdiction by a whopping 65 percent. As of March, 30 training orders have been issued to the department’s officers, in order to sharpen skills in the use of technology; investigation of child abuse; DUI detection; crisis intervention; and crime watch enforcement. They are establishing a 7-week Citizens’ Police Academy, to give residents a better understanding of their role in law enforcement. Joined by his colleagues, Officer Mario Raimato has spearheaded the department’s community outreach initiatives in schools and at public events, and in the process has become one of the most visible police officers in southern Chester County. If there is any remaining doubt about whether “Simpson’s Folly” has defied its critics, consider the commitment by the New Garden Township Supervisors to approve the construction of a $4.3 million headquarters at 8934 Gap Newport Pike, that is scheduled to begin operations in the fall. With expanded police coverage and a new home on the way, it is incumbent upon the SCCRPD to adapt to a new municipality and new surroundings. However, we ask that they eventually return to the map of southern Chester County and draw a re-imagined design of coverage that links it to a wider area that includes neighboring municipalities, perhaps London Britain and Franklin townships. In no way does this newspaper endorse this potential initiative as a criticism of the coverage currently provided to these two municipalities by the State Police in Avondale. The men and women of the State Police have protected – and continue to protect – the residents of several boroughs and townships in southern Chester County with the dedication of a small army, and we support their unwavering and superb commitment to safety. Our recommendation here is merely a down-the-road initiative that could further stabilize and enhance the workings of a regional department who has been retrofitted for reasonable and eventual expansion from its beginning. The Southern Chester County Regional Police Department is guided by four core values – human life, integrity, justice and duty. We have seen these principles create the foundation of an effective regional police department, and on July 1, they will apply themselves to the Avondale Borough and perhaps, years from now, they will be applied elsewhere in a larger, contiguous swath of protection and service.

Letter to the Editor: Pennsylvania seniors who count on nursing facilities for their care deserve stronger support from the Commonwealth in the upcoming 2019-20 fiscal budget. Years and years of flat funding is catching up with a system that supports one of the largest 85 and over populations in the nation. Pennsylvania lawmakers can begin to fix this problem by increasing Medicaid funding by 2.8

percent in the upcoming budget. It’s a small first step toward addressing chronic underfunding that has led non-profits to struggle to keep qualified staff, attract new employees and invest in quality care. In 15 years, the Commonwealth has averaged an annual increase of barely 1 percent in Medicaid funding. During that time, the cost of providing nursing home care has increased nearly 33 percent. Things have gotten so

bad that Pennsylvania’s nursing homes suffered a Medicaid funding shortfall of more than $631 million in 20172018, according to a Medicaid Funding Gap Analysis commissioned by LeadingAge PA. A 2.8 percent increase would provide $47 million in state funds (a good first step) and should be placed directly into Medicaid rates to ensure every nursing facility in Pennsylvania receives additional funding.

State lawmakers are truly a partner with Pennsylvania’s nursing facilities because they determine how much Medicaid funding is provided at a time when more and more seniors rely on Medicaid for their care. It’s a partnership that deserves their long overdue attention. Anne Henry Senior Vice President and Chief Government Affairs Officer Mechanicsburg

Dinniman announces $950,000 for extracurricular programs in Chester County schools State Sen. Andy Dinniman recently announced that that ten schools in the Coatesville and Kennett areas will receive $950,000 in total state funding to offer extracurricular activities to students during non-school hours. “Learning doesn’t stop when the school day ends and these programs help continue to inspire and encourage young people from diverse backgrounds to pursue their interests and find what sparks their curiosity and passion to learn,” Dinniman, who serves as minority chair of the Senate Education Committee, said. “And they’re also a great way to bring families and communities into the school environment as an integral part of the learning, development, and growth of the next generation of leaders.” The funds, which come through the 21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) grant program and are administered by the Pennsylvania Department of Education’s are as follows: • $150,000 for the Chester County Intermediate Unit to support pro-

grams at Mary D. Lang, Bancroft, Greenwood, and New Garden Elementary Schools in the Kennett Consolidated School District. • $400,000 for the Chester County Intermediate Unit to support programs at Kennett Middle School and Kennett High School in the Kennett Consolidated School District. • $400,000 for the Chester County Intermediate Unit to support programs at East Fallowfield Elementary School, Kings Highway Elementary School, Rainbow Elementary School and the Gordon Center. The 21st CCLC is a competitive grant that provides federal funding to establish community learning centers that provide academic, artistic, and cultural enrichment opportunities for students and their families. These opportunities must occur during non-school hours or periods when school is not in session to help students attending high-poverty and low-performing schools to meet state and local standards in core academic subjects. Centers must also offer students a broad array of activities that can

complement their regular academic programs, to offer literacy and other educational services to their families. Such enrichment opportunities may include: • Mentoring programs, remedial education activities, and tutoring services. • Literacy education programs, including financial literacy programs and environmental literacy programs. • Programs that support a healthy and active lifestyle, including nutritional education and regular, structured physical activity programs. • Services for individuals with disabilities; • Programs that provide after-school activities for students who are English learners that emphasize language skills and academic achievement; • Cultural programs. • Telecommunications and technology education programs. • Expanded library service hours. • Parenting skills programs that promote parental involvement and family literacy. • Programs that provide assistance to students who have been truant, suspend-

ed, or expelled to allow the students to improve their academic achievement. • Activities that enable students to be eligible for credit recovery or attainment; • Drug and violence prevention programs and counseling programs. • Programs that build skills in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM), including computer science, and that foster innovation in learning by supporting nontraditional STEM education teaching methods. • Programs that partner with in-demand fields of the local workforce or build career competencies and career readiness. In addition to academics, 21st CCLC grantees may also use the funds to carry out a broad array of activities that advance student academic achievement and support student success, including before and after school, summer, Saturdays, and holiday programming. A minimum of 50 percent of daily programming must directly target reading, math, and science enrichment with the balance of activities occurring on a rotational basis.

Kennett Square Borough to consider zoning changes to allow larger buildings along West State Street The zoning changes, which are prompted by a proposal for a 189-unit apartment complex on West State Street, will be discussed and voted on during a June 17 meeting Kennett Square Borough Council will consider allowing larger, taller buildings along West State Street from South Washington Street to Mill Road, the Borough’s western border. Prompted by a proposal for the construction of 189 apartments on the Kennett Square boundary on State Street, the Borough Council will hold a public hearing and vote on the proposed zoning changes at its June 17 meeting in the Red Clay Room, 423 Dalmatian Street. The hearing will be followed by a vote, with time for public comment during both. The meeting will

begin at 7 p.m. Council president Doug Doerfler, who also chairs the borough’s Municipal Relations Committee, explained that this presents a change, both to the present character of the area and to the regulations in place in that section of the Borough. “The existing businesses and parking lots could be replaced by what’s called class-A apartments (as proposed by the current development proposal), or by any other use-by-right building, and we want the community to know that we consider that a significant change,” Doerfler said. “We value the businesses that occupy the area between our won-

derful historic shopping district and Mill Road, and we’re equally aware that the less-intensive uses present an opportunity for change. The idea has been through a dozen public meetings of Council, the Planning Commission, and our Municipal Relations Committee, but we encourage everyone to familiarize themselves with the project and weigh in on June 17.” Buildings are limited to 35 feet in the C-2 Zoning District, which includes the State Street/Cypress Street corridor on either side of the Borough’s C-2 Secondary Commercial District. This height would increase to 55 feet, but only in the area along West

State Street and West Cypress Street, starting at the South Washington Street intersection of West State Street to the Borough line. The “overlay” zoning district includes Magnolia Place, but the 26 acres formerly occupied by the NVF company isn’t included. The changes will also allow buildings up to 400 feet in length. StanAb, LP, a West Chester development company, held a meeting on June 5 to show plans to the public.

explained, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and now weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ready to move on to the next chapter of our lives.â&#x20AC;? Over the course of the next two hours, the Class of 2019 reflected on their time together at Oxford and looked forward, with hope and optimism, to the lives that await them as adults. Winand and several other graduation speakers thanked the teachers and administrators, and the family members and friends, for helping them along the way. In the first of several emotional moments during the graduation ceremony, Winand remembered Julia Latimer, who passed away in 2018, and Eli Matthews, who passed away in 2011. A moment of silence followed. Oxford Area High School

principal James Canaday offered remarks during the ceremony. He talked about how supportive the Oxford community is. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Without your partnership and support,â&#x20AC;? Canaday said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;we would not be here tonight. The Oxford community is a very special place. I wish you all a very memorable night.â&#x20AC;? Canaday noted that one of his familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s four children was among the graduating seniors, and he said that he has forged special relationships with members of the Class of 2019 and their parents. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an honor to share this with you,â&#x20AC;? Canaday said. The high school principal encouraged the graduates to surround themselves with positive people who support them, and to make decisions that will make their families proud. Class salutatorian Emily

Stewart talked about the momentous occasion, and what it would mean for the students. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Graduation is an exciting time. It is an ending and a beginning,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Today, we reflect on the memories we made here and we envision the future that lies ahead. We have all had challenges, but we overcame them. We worked hard to get where we are today.â&#x20AC;? Graduating high school, Stewart said, was not the last chapter in the lives of the graduates. They will go on to other chapters that will determine the stories that their lives tell. Stewart said that they will carry what they learned in Oxford with them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll take a little piece of Oxford wherever we go,â&#x20AC;? Stewart said. Valedictorian Jacob Hewes looked to the â&#x20AC;&#x153;short,

Hewes’ clever and entertaining address was written in short rhymes. An illustration: “The time has come for us to spread our wings and fly To college or work or whatever we try” Another one of the more heartfelt moments of the graduation ceremony came when Hewes spoke fondly of his twin brother, Noah, who was also among the graduates. Jacob Hewes put it this way:

“Of my six brothers and sisters There’s one who stands out He’s the one who looks just like me But I have more clout” The valedictorian thanked his twin brother, and led the audience in applauding for him. Next, Oxford Area School District superintendent of schools David Woods officially presented the members of the Class of 2019 as graduates.

Tomasetti and other staff members who would be departing this year. He also advised the graduating seniors to be strong, courageous and patient. “No task is below you. Don’t be afraid to fail. Enjoy each day like it’s the last. Be kind,” he told them. Members of the senior class were well represented in various segments of the ceremony. Nancy Avalos Rodriguez delivered the invocation in both English and Spanish. She also led the Pledge of Allegiance. She recalled her first days at Kennett High School when she had an initial sense of confusion. “Now we are the cool kids,” she said.

Class president Bruce Genereux greeted his classmates and thanked the parents. He said, “Anything is possible when you take on new challenges.” He also received the Advisor’s Cup – one of the school’s highest honors. Four student speakers presented their thoughts on what they had experienced in their years at the school and how they intended to move ahead in the future. Kathryn Erisman compared the years at Kennett High School as like traveling a roadway. “We will navigate new roads. … This is just the starting point,” she said. Kevin Lemus Moreno characterized his classmates as “friends of technology” who learned how to make things happen. He added, “We do not have to be a

genius to achieve great things.” Moreno was also awarded the Rupert Cup, the school’s highest honor, at the conclusion of the commencement ceremony. Molly Hohner’s speech was titled “Recalculating.” She said individuals must view what seem like failures, learn from them and turn them into successes. Elaina Maahs compared human lives and experiences to literature. “All of our stories have led us here. Kennett will always be part of the pages of your stories,” she said. Assistant principal Jeffrey Thomas announced that of the 297 members of the class, 107 seniors had received 294 scholarships worth $10.1 million. The high school orchestra,

directed by Jessica Williams, played several musical numbers including the traditional “Pomp and Circumstance” and the recessional “La Rejouissance” by Handel. Musicians from the senior class joined for several of the pieces. Assistant principal Raymond Fernandez read the roll call of the graduates, and one by one, they proceeded up the steps to the landing to receive their diplomas. Many of them hugged senior class advisor Margaret Hughes as they did so.

Unionville’s Class of 2019 enjoys their big day By JP Phillips Correspondent The heat and humidity outside on June 6 did nothing to deter the friends, family, staff and school board members who came out to watch Unionville High School’s class of 2019 graduate at the Bob Carpenter Center on the University of Delaware campus. Speakers included principal Jimmy Conley, district superintendent John Sanville, social studies educator of the year (pupil selected) Darlene Brigance, and student honor speakers Ashlyn Lauder, Aldo Medina, and Richard Childs. All shared some nostalgia about the past four years, and advice to the graduates as they continue on their personal journeys. Conley reflected on this class’s virtues of kindness, friendship, and altruism. “As members of this proud class, take the experiences that you have faced over the last four years with your classmates and transform your college and university campuses,” Conley said. “Go to your workplaces and build positive communities. If you are entering military service, bring these attributes to your platoons or your battalions. Build communities through kindness and friendship wherever you go, and show the world what you have learned from each other over the last four years.” Sanville asked them to use their time purposefully and wisely. “Now that you are moving forward on your own, it is especially important that you use your time for the endeavors that benefit you,” he said. “Plan your 168 hours carefully. Don’t spend time living up to the expectations of others. Don’t spend time fulfilling dreams that are not yours. Don’t be the standard-bearer for ideals you do not support. Don’t adopt attitudes because they are trendy. Don’t let the

noise and chaos drown your own thoughts out. Don’t spend one second doing anything that you would be ashamed of.” Social studies teacher Brigance spoke about the importance of listening to different views and changing your mind when warranted. She stressed that each person should share opinions both boldly and respectfully, even when it’s uncomfortable. She encouraged everyone to research candidates and vote in every election, big and small. “Graduating class of 2019, I encourage all of you to enjoy your life, and to work for a better world, one conversation and one vote at a time,” Brigance said. Graduating seniors Lauder, Medina and Childs also took to the podium. Lauder talked about being

grateful for her high school years, even the difficult times. Medina talked about a neighbor who taught him so much about character, especially compassion. He asked the graduates to consider who influenced their lives. “Thank them,” he said. “Honor them. Challenge yourself to follow their example.” Childs spoke fondly about his experience at UHS and how the school supported students’ personal development. “You believed in us, and made us feel special,” he said. The Unionville-Chadds Ford district office said that there were 358 graduates. As for future plans, most will settle in at various colleges throughout the country. The most popular destinations are Penn State, West Chester University, University of Pittsburgh,

Drexel, and Temple. Twenty-five graduates committed to playing sports at their new schools. Three will enter the military, and one is headed to the police academy. A few are going straight to work, and some are going to community colleges. “Soon, the day-to-day routine of high school will be but a memory,” honor student Lauder said. “But the underlying feeling of what Unionville means to us, the home we have each created here at school, the friends we have made, the successes we have each achieved for ourselves, and the bond we all share as the graduates of the class of 2019 will remain … Congratulations, class of 2019. And may we all flourish and grow in our own uniquely grateful and grounded ways.”

N.C. Wyeth paintings at Somerville Manning Gallery This week, Somerville Manning Gallery in Delaware will participate in an area-wide tribute to one of America’s greatest illustrators, N.C. Wyeth, from June 14 to Aug. 24. The Brandywine River Museum of Art will open “N.C. Wyeth New Perspectives” on June 22, which will then travel to the Portland Museum of Art. This exhibition is the first N.C. Wyeth retrospective at Brandywine since the ‘70s and will examine in depth the entirety of Wyeth’s oeuvre, repositioning him within the greater context of early 20th century American visual culture. Somerville Manning Gallery will host a corresponding solo exhibition celebrating Wyeth’s work. Sixteen paintings on view will come from private collections, and have never before been seen publicly. Thirteen other works are for sale, including paintings of Wyeth’s Chadds Ford home and its surroundings, still lifes, and illustrations for magazines and books. While incorporating the best of Wyeth’s illustrations, this exhibition will also feature aspects of his art that until now have garnered less attention, such as his landscapes and still lifes. The gallery is supporting the education series on N.C. Wyeth at the Brandywine River Museum of Art this summer. Lectures begin June 27 and continue with guest curators and professors until

N.C. Wyeth’s ‘The Husking Bee,’ a 1941 oil used as a cover illustration for Woman’s Day Magazine.

Sept. 12. Contact the museum for tickets. Generations of readers grew up with stories illustrated by N. C. Wyeth, and his name was as renowned as the authors whose stories he pictured. Recently the art world and the art market have been taking a fresh look at Wyeth’s art and achievements. Somerville Manning Gallery specializes in N.C. Wyeth paintings, as well as paintings from the Wyeth family, Howard Pyle School of Illustration, and contemporary painting and sculpture. The curator of N.C. Wyeth Collections and Historic Properties

at the Brandywine River Museum of Art, Christine B. Podmaniczky, worked closely with the gallery’s owner, Vickie Manning, over 19 years while she researched and compiled the N.C. Wyeth Catalog Raisonne. Vickie Manning also co-authored Visions of Adventure, a book about adventure painting in American illustration. Somerville Manning Gallery has a long history with the Wyeth family beginning in the 1980s when it handled sales from the N.C. Wyeth estate, until 1994, at which time the estate passed to the Brandywine River Museum of Art.

N.C. Wyeth’s ‘Rebel Jerry and Yankee Jake’ (1930/31), an illustration for ‘The Little Shepard of Kingdom Come.’

This association has continued through the years with the exhibitions “N.C. Wyeth, Andrew Wyeth Six Decades,” “Wyeth Women: Henriette Wyeth Hurd, Carolyn Wyeth, and Ann Wyeth McCoy,” paintings

by the three daughters of N.C. Wyeth as well as major painting exhibitions for both and Jamie Wyeth in 2015 and Andrew Wyeth in 2017. The opening reception will be held at the Somerville Manning Gallery (101 Stone

Block Row, Greenville, Del.) on June 14 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. There will be a gallery talk with Vickie Manning at 6:30 p.m. For more information, call 302652-0271 or visit www. somervillemanning.com.

Brandywine hosts major Wyeth retrospective

‘Island Funeral’ (1939), by N.C. Wyeth.

“N.C. Wyeth: New Perspectives” opens on June 22 at the Brandywine River Museum of Art in Chadds Ford. It is the first exhibition in almost 50 years to examine, in depth, the entirety of Wyeth’s multifaceted oeuvre. It continues through Sept. 15. Co-organized by the Brandywine River Museum of Art and the Portland Museum of Art

(PMA), this exhibition will include approximately 70 paintings and drawings selected from major museums and private collections. A formidable yet often overlooked f igure in the history of American art, N.C. Wyeth was the foremost illustrator of his generation, and the patriarch of an extraordinary family of artists. By repositioning

Wyeth as a distinguished painter who worked across the perceived divisions of visual culture in painting, illustration, murals and advertising, the exhibition offers new insights on Wyeth’s place within the broad spectrum of early 20th-century visual arts. The exhibition will feature the iconic paintings Wyeth created to illustrate books and

magazine stories, as well as the landscapes and figurative works of art that have, up until now, garnered less attention. They include examples of his experimentation with Impressionism during the 1910s and 1920s, as well as his shift towards American Regionalism and his adoption of elements of Modernism from the late 1920s through the mid-1930s. Among the exhibition highlights on view, “Island Funeral,” one of Wyeth’s most seminal and complex narrative paintings, represents the culmination of a protracted period of artistic experiment and invention. Fo l l ow i n g its presentation at the Brandywine, an abbreviated version of the exhibition will travel to the Portland Museum of Art in Maine (October 4, 2019–January 12, 2020) and the Taft Museum of Art in Cincinnati, Ohio (February 8, 2020–May 3, 2020). The Brandywine River Museum of Art is open daily from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is $18 for adults, $15 for seniors ages 65 and older, $6 for students and children ages 6 and older; free for children 5 and younger and Brandywine Conservancy & Museum of Art members. Guided tours of the Andrew Wyeth Studio, N. C. Wyeth House & Studio, and the Kuerner Farm are available daily (for an additional fee) from April 4 through Nov. 18; advance reservations are recommended. For more information, call 610-388-2700 or visit brandywine.org/museum.

The Clover Market returns to Kennett Square By Richard L. Gaw Staff Writer One year ago, Clover Market founder Janet Gardner stood beneath a white tent while dozens of vendors at the first Clover Market in Kennett Square scrambled to protect their items from the steady afternoon rain that pelted the parking lot at the Genesis Healthcare on Broad Street. An angry wind pulled on tents, and customers jogged back to their cars in a crazy rush to abandon the premises. At Clover Market in Kennett Square II, held on June 9, it was the sun that soaked the hundreds of visitors

who rummaged through the handmade products, vintage goods and antique heirlooms of more than 90 vendors in attendance. The market served as the wrapup event for an entire Weekend of the Arts in Kennett Square that featured gallery and art shows, a flea market, a fundraiser, and the opening of a new studio and exhibition space. “The great weather certainly helped our great turnout, and this year, we became part of a larger weekend going on in Kennett, which was going on from Friday night to today, and that helped get the word out about our part of this weekend,” Gardner said.

Clover Market will return to Kennett Square on Nov. 3, and will also appear on Sept. 8 in Chestnut Hill, in Bryn Mawr on Sept. 22 and Oct. 20, and on Oct. 6 in Collingswood, N.J. “What I see here is a community who continually supports the events that go on – whether it’s the Mushroom Festival, the Brewfest, the Winter Festival, the Mushroom Cap 13.1 Half Marathon, or the Kennett Run,” Gardner said. “For us, this is perfect place to be.” To contact Staff Writer Richard L. Gaw, email rgaw@chestercounty. com.

Cool summer art with a watery theme in Kennett Square By John Chambless Staff Writer “Into the Deep” is a great, watery theme that suits the summer season at the Square Pear Fine Art Gallery in Kennett Square. Thoughtfully assembled, with an eye toward introducing some new artists, the show looks at oceans, shorelines, aquatic life and sinuous forms. In the front gallery space, Karen Benco’s watercolors of reflective water on stones have a strong threedimensional quality, and her two vertical watercolors of tide pools revel in the hues and shapes of the pebbles and boulders, both above and below the shallow water. Joe Milligan’s watercolors of boats, surf and shore have a subdued mood and blue-gray palette that give the works an air of off-season beach life. In stark contrast, the eyegrabbing blues of Lisa Budd’s underwater scenes jump off the gallery wall. Her three watercolors of koi circling each other have a rich palette of vivid

orange and white, and a symphony of blue tones in the water. There are several bronze sculptures by Alejandro Lemus – mermaids and a powerful, arching whale – that have wonderfully fluid lines and a sparing use of color that reflects the artist’s masterful skill. John Slivjak’s oils of maritime scenes have a mature style and remarkable light – most notably “5 a.m.,” a soft pink-blue harbor scene that almost glows from within. Slivjak’s “View of the Toms River” is similarly strong in a different way, with a clear summer light on an expanse of open water and cloud-filled sky. The wake of the boat in the left center makes the composition. Jack Gianguilio’s semiabstract watercolors are as vivacious as ever, with angled shapes clashing and overlapping and making magical things happen. Dan Burnstein’s glass vases, displayed on several shelves, are a pleasant expanse of blue-green ocean colors. Adding to the show are stoneware and

Joe Milligan’s watercolors focus on shoreline views.

clay sculptures by Rhoda Kahler, such as her huge “Fountain,” with its splashy purple/blue glaze. Ann Guidera-Matey’s pastels of harbor scenes fit well with the theme, and her pond view, “Farm on Langford Creek,” is a perfect depiction of summer sun and cool, shadowed water. “Into the Deep” continues through June 30

Student artworks in the spotlight at Oxford Arts Alliance By John Chambless Staff Writer The Annual Oxford Student Show at the Oxford Arts Alliance is always a chance to catch a young talent on the rise, and this year’s show has some notable highlights. There are always charming works by elementary-age students who – although following an assignment – manage to turn out fresh, sparkling work. It’s a tribute to their teachers who come up with projects like the sleeping figures from the Elk Ridge School, and the stylized trees from Nottingham Elementary School. Sean Patrick, a fifth grader at Bethany Christian

School, goes bold with his subject matter and use of materials in his bird portrait. Among the sculptural work, seventh grader Keira Butler’s “My Cat Tippy” is adorable, and the pink tongue is the crowning touch. Students in the Oxford Arts Alliance’s own Art Academy get a showcase, and Allie Gibson’s pencil drawing “A Visual Interpretation of the Raven” is certainly arresting. Kristin Zunino’s acrylic painting of a sea turtle hatching is very well done. Oxford High School is represented by some dazzlingly good work, among them drawings by Gina Pilaitis. One is

a portrait in a fractured mirror, and one is a portrait of a girl with water pooling on her eyes and running off her chin. It’s extraordinary. Also, the multi-layered, stitched-together heart by Erin Poole reflects a remarkably assured artistic voice. The show is well worth visiting, even if you don’t know any of these young artists personally. There are some very fine works on display through June 28. Gallery hours are Tuesday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. To contact Staff Writer John Chambless, email jchambless@ chestercounty.com.
