Whether to allow alcohol sales in Franklin Township will be up to voters in May, after enough signatures were recently gathered to put the question on the ballot.

In an effort to improve amenities for residents and spur some revenue, the Board of Supervisors discussed the issue late last

year, but faced a March 12 deadline to gather the required signatures of at least 558 registered voters.

The footwork involved in going door to door was initially a daunting task.

While Board of Supervisors chairman John Auerbach said he was in favor of allowing alcohol sales, he realized that the task was a large one.

Town hall-style meeting in Kennett Square focuses on EMS services

changes and challenges to the delivery systems in the future.

The meeting, which was held at the Red Clay Room in Kennett Square, attracted a large crowd of local residents. EMS and fire services have been hot topics of discussion in the last year, as a committee comprised of representatives from Kennett Square and

the surrounding municipalities has looked at fire and EMS services in the region.

At the onset of the town hall, Kennett Square Mayor Matt Fetick, who helped organize the meeting, explained that the goal for the night was to provide useful information about EMS services in general, and the town hall was not meant for in-depth discus-

sion about EMS services in the Kennett Square region.

“It’s really about the EMS system, how is it delivered, what it looks like,” Fetick explained. He emphasized that Ferguson was invited to offer some insights into how EMS services are offered throughout the state, and he would not be in a position to offer any sort of recommendation on how

the Kennett Square region should have EMS services provided in the future.

Early in his presentation, Ferguson also touched on this point, saying that it was really up to a local community to determine how to meet its needs for EMS services.

Inasmuch as Pennsylvania government has established an intermunicipal cooperation act so second class townships and boroughs can share efforts and funding on things like water, trash and sewers, the act does not include fire companies. This commission aims to address fire and ambulance costs and was created as the local forum.

The findings of the most recent pavement condition report issued by London Grove Township declared that the majority of the township's roads are in “Good” or “Very Good” condition. The report was compiled by the township's Public Works Department and delivered by Public Works Director Shane Kinsey at the township's Board of Supervisors meeting on March 6.

First implemented by the township in 2010 and subsequently in 2013 and 2017,

the “Pavement Surface Evaluation and Rating System” (PASER) – developed by the University of Wisconsin-Madison – is used to evaluate current road conditions in order to make informed decisions on road maintenance, repair and replacement.

The department underwent the evaluation of the township's 61.34 miles of road (the sixth-largest number in Chester County) in January and February, and graded them according to degrees of rutting, longitudinal cracking and bleeding. Of the total 180 road segments in the township, 63 of them were

rated as “Very Good” and 90 were rated as “Good.”

The report also gave a “Fair” rating to 19 roads, a “Poor” ratings to 7 roads and one road was given a “Failed” rating - Mosquito Lane.

Measured against the three previous ratings the township conducted, Kinsey said that the number of “Good” and “Very Good” roads have increased with every evaluation, “and the number of poor or failed roads have basically fallen off,” he said.

The ratings system defines “Very Good” roads as being those that require little or no maintenance; “Good” roads Continued on Page 6A

and hear live music all weekend long.

At the entrance of the brewpub, a sign read, “Welcome home.”

“The emotions we've had have been excitement, fear, anger, frustration and back to excitement again,” said Kent Steeves, who owns the brewpub along with his wife, Amy, and Matt and Kathy Drysdale.

“It's been a long journey.

We signed a lease on this building 22 months ago.

It's an old building, so we knew we would have challenges here, but it's been worth the wait.”

Although March 1-3 served as the official opening of Braeloch Brewing, it wasn't the first time the brewery has welcomed visitors. Ten by-invitationonly soft openings were held in February, which allowed 30 invitees at each event to sample beer, take tours of the brewery, meet the owners, bartenders and servers, and mingle with other guests.

“On the night of the first 30-person soft opening, my stomach was in knots,” said Kathy Drysdale. “We kept asking, 'Have we done everything right?'

After the first night, we thought, 'We've got this.'

Each night got a little easier, and we got a little more confident. Now we have to transfer that confidence from 30 people and apply it to serving hundreds of people, and that's a big transition.”

While giving a lot of credit to his wife Amy and the Drysdales, Steeves also recognized many others who helped lend some “elbow grease” that converted a 9,000-square-foot brick warehouse built in 1903 into a space that features a 4,000-square-foot tap room area and a brewing room. He thanked his

two daughters, who now live in Charlotte, N.C., and the Drysdale's daughters.

“So many people committed to paint, even on the hottest, nastiest of days,” he said. “If they gave us ten minutes, we took it, because they knew they would become part of the fun. That was priceless.”

Steeves also thanked his brother, Brett, who designed the brewery's 78-foot-long signature bar, which weaves its way along the far-right wall.

“It's got corners and it's got curves, and if you want to have a conversation with one person, you can do so, but if you want to add a third person into the conversation, you can do so. It's become a facilitator of that family feeling that we want to bring here.”

Steeves said as a brewer, he feels the pressure to live up to the high standards set by those brewpubs that have preceded Braeloch in the southern Chester County area, like the Kennett Brewing Company, Victory Brewing Company, Two Stones Pub and the Levante Brewing Company, to name a few.

As an owner, Steeves and his partners are on a fast track to complete the outdoor beer garden, turn the brewery's kitchen

over to a restaurant group; and complete several other cosmetic changes.

“Once you open, everything switches over from 'How much money do we have left to spend?' to 'What are we going to do next?'” he said. “People who have walked through this door have told us, 'This place is amazing,' but to us, we're not finished. We have to keep this journey going. This weekend will give us a moment to breathe a little bit, but we're about to go right back in and do more.”

The official opening of Braeloch Brewing nearly coincides with the rebirth of the Creamery of Kennett Square, which reopened last November to great fanfare, as well as a new infrastructure and a hatchet-tossing venue. Steeves said that the opening of Braeloch creates a “collaborative effort” between the two businesses.

“There were a large number of people at our soft openings who came here, went to the Creamery and came back here,” he said.

“A rising tide raises all boats. The Creamery is not a craft brewery like we are, but they're achieving the same thing that Braeloch will do – to provide a wonderful place for people to go.”

The owners and staff at Braeloch Brewing welcomed hundreds of opening-weekend visitors to the brewery on Birch Street in Kennett Square, from March 1-3.

These chalkboard menus display the available craft beers, that are all made at Braeloch Brewing.

Square's newest brewery trace back to the home that Steeves’ parents purchased three decades ago in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. In a short time, the home became a serene refuge for everyone who entered there, and when each visitor arrived, he or she was met with a welcoming sign that hung on a lamppost that read, “Braeloch.”

While its literal translation is a Scottish term that stands for “hill by a lake,” the word came to define for the Steeves’ a spirit of energy that can be found when people gather in conversation and camaraderie.

“It's all about family,” Steeves said. “Those are the precious times in life, and it's hard to count those

The contributions the municipalities pay are divided up proportionately according to four data points: the number of ambulance calls, the number of

EMS Services...

Ferguson explained. He outlined the three function areas of the Bureau of EMS, which includes education; data and quality improvement; and preparedness and response.

For education, the Bureau of EMS services focuses on the areas of accreditation of educational institutes, initial certification education, examination processes, and continuing education. For date and quality improvement, the bureau focuses on the area of clinical and regulatory compliance, data collection, quality improvement processes, and EMS agency licensure. For preparedness and response, the bureau focuses on emergency response functions as it relates to disaster response, special events planning, and communications.

Next, Ferguson explained that there are 13 regional EMS councils across Pennsylvania that act as agents of the department.

These councils do a lot of work, including conducting licensure inspections, administering certification exams, providing technical assistance to agencies to comply with EMS Systems Act, and investigating complaints. One of the 13 regional EMS councils oversees Chester County.

There are 1,258 EMS agencies across the state.

Ferguson explained that there is a wide range to those services. Approximately 70 percent of the 1,258 EMS agencies are Quick Response Service or Basic Life Support—which is to say a vast majority of the EMS agencies are offering the basic care that patients need until they can receive more advanced treatments.

The Quick Response Service is designed to provide emergency medical care prior to the arrival of a transport capable EMS vehicle. The Basic Life Support ambulance provides what the name suggests—basic life support care to the sick and injured. It is staffed, at a minimum, with one Emergency Medical Technician (EMT).

There are also Intermediate Advanced Life Support and Advanced Life Support,

fire calls, the population size and the assessed real estate value of the municipality. The costs are then passed on to residents in the form of real estate tax millage.

By planning for those costs over the total area and years, big expenses like a ladder truck or rescue vehicle can be evenly accommodated, with money set aside for future large purchases.

Walker said the costs of firefighters are not included which both provide more advanced services than what is possible through Quick Response Service or Basic Life Support. An Intermediate Advanced Life Support ambulance is staffed with the minimum of one paramedic. There are also Critical Care Transports and Air Ambulances for more specific and advanced medical needs. Critical Care Transport is only for transporting people between facilities, and is not used for 911 calls. The air ambulance is designed for the scene of the emergency or for 911 calls where critical care is needed.

Ferguson also talked about the people who are on the front lines of providing quality emergency medical care. He explained that there are 42,296 certified care providers in the various EMS systems throughout Pennsylvania.

Of those, 29,462 are EMTs. They have all completed at least 180 hours of training.

There are 245 advanced EMTs currently certified in Pa. They have the same training as EMTs, but then have an additional 180 hours of training. The state has 6,948 paramedics who have received 1,000 hours of training. They are highly skilled at delivering care during an emergency.

“Paramedic training is extremely grueling,” Ferguson explained, noting that they spend many hundreds of hours learning in the field while they are completing their training.

There are 1,210 pre-hospital RNs, which represents the highest level of training for people who would be responding to emergency calls on a regular basis.

Additionally, there are 3,256 emergency medical responders, who are trained to get the care started until more advanced medical personnel can arrive to transport patients to a hospital.

Ferguson said that the duties and training for EMTs has evolved greatly since they were first widely utilized in Pennsylvania in the 1970s. Back then, EMTs would have only provided very basic care. They are now trained to handle many different issues on the scene

in expense data because the local fire companies are, for the most part, volunteer.

He also said there are certain anomalies like reimbursements for ambulance service from health insurance and Medicare that vary and are complex to factor in. Other factors that are considered include the number of calls that originate in retirement communities in Kennett and Pennsbury and the heavy traffic (and resultant accidents) on Route 1 in

and en route to a medical facility.

“Today, our EMTs are tasked with providing more medical care than at any time in history,” Ferguson explained.

While that higher level of care is unquestionably a good thing, it doesn’t come without costs. Today, EMS agencies are doing more with fewer resources. It’s up to the local communities to determine how much they can afford to spend on EMS services. That can be very challenging.

Ferguson explained that it’s about getting the right care to the right person at the right time.

“Every single component of the system is equally important,” he explained.

“We truly have to work together as a team to ensure that everyone is taken care of.”

Ferguson talked about how call volumes are increasing to take care of an aging population.

“The simple fact is EMS providers see a 7 percent increase in calls every year,” he said. “That is a trend that we expect to see continue.”

Many of the EMS agencies in Pennsylvania are reliant on volunteers to fully staff the vehicles.

“There are portions of this Commonwealth, and portions of this country, where volunteerism still runs deep,” Ferguson explained. But in many areas, the number of volunteers is decreasing, forcing

Elements of a viable EMS system The Kennett Regional Fire and EMS Commission has been tasked with studying how fire and EMS services are provided—and paid for—by Kennett Square Borough, Kennett Township, East Marlborough Township, Newlin Township, Pennsbury Township, and Pocopson Township. In 2017, those six municipalities agreed to form a commission to look at how fire and EMS services are provided and paid for in the region, with the simultaneous goals of optimizing services for residents while also identi-

fying the most efficient way to pay for those services.

During his presentation, Dylan Ferguson, the director of the Pennsylvania Department of Health, Emergency and Medical Services, outlined the elements of a viable EMS system. This is of particular interest for residents in the Kennett Square region because decisions about how to maintain viable EMS divisions (and fire companies) are looming.

So what are the elements of a viable EMS system?

Ferguson outlined them: ~ Adequate call volume: There must be a sufficient

East Marlborough.

Walker said the East Marlborough and Kennett Township percentages are at 27 percent; Kennett Square, Pennsbury and Pocopson are at about 14 percent; and Newlin is at about 6 percent.

The monetary share that East Marlbrough pays is slightly over $500,000 a year.

The costs are remaining constant at the 2017 level for 2018, 2019 and 2020, and will be adjusted for 2021.

billable call volume to support the level of service. ~ Cost of readiness: Being able to sustain and absorb the costs of 24-hour and year-round readiness. ~ Effective administration of the agency: Management of human resources, operations, compliance, and billing. ~ Adequate reimbursement for services provided: Just as there must be adequate billable call volume, the reimbursements at the EMS divisions receive for their services must be sufficient to cover the costs of providing those services.

many communities to boost spending to maintain the level of coverage.

Ferguson said that there are many factors that contribute to the declining number of volunteers; for starters, there are many more two-income families, and people are working harder and for longer hours.

There are also many more activities for children to enjoy, so moms and dads are more often traveling to take their children to baseball tournaments or dance classes or robotics events.

People have more demands placed on their time so they can’t volunteer as often.

At the same time, to ensure a high quality of care, first responders are being asked to undertake more training.

There’s nothing wrong with high expectations for care, Ferguson said, but it does make it more difficult to attract and maintain volunteers, especially at a time when people have so many other obligations.

“The expectation is that someone who is highly trained and competent will show up and provide whatever you need to feel better,” Ferguson explained, but the additional training places more demands on the volunteers.

Ferguson also briefly talked about EMS billing, and the payments that EMS agencies receive for services. He explained that many people believe that EMS agencies bill and receive full payment for all services. The reality is that, on average, 50 percent to 70 percent of all reimbursements come from Medicare, government-contracted MCOs and Medicaid. There are fees for services for these programs that have set payment rates, regard-

“The fire companies have been very creative and cooperative in creating the three-year plan,” Walker said.

The supervisors also discussed but did not take action on the plans for a sidewalk along Route 82 for the future Toll Brothers development on the Pratt property. At issue is the existence of a historic stretch of the old trolley route and whether the sidewalk should curve to avoid

any alterations to the remains of the tracks.

In other business, the supervisors approved a road closure for the planned Tough Mudder event on May 18 and 19. It is an all-night event that the supervisors expressed the need for security and traffic control.

The supervisors also approved a closure of North Walnut Road for the Kennett Run, which is scheduled for May 11.

Dylan Ferguson, the director of the Pennsylvania Department of Health, Emergency, and Medical Services, was the featured guest speaker at a town hall-style meeting in Kennett Square.

less of what it costs the EMS provider. It may cost an ambulance division more to go out and respond to a call than it will receive in reimbursements from Medicare, government contracted MCOs and Medicaid. Ferguson pointed out that no business model will work if the costs to provide a service are greater than the payment for those services.

Sometimes, an EMS agency won’t be reimbursed at all for a call. Currently, if someone calls 911 and the first responders are able to resolve the issue without transporting the patient, the ambulance division may not be reimbursed. State lawmakers are looking at “treat-no-transport” legislation that would allow ambulance divisions to be reimbursed.

The state also increased funding for the Medicaid fee schedule.

Emphasizing the local aspect of EMS services, Ferguson said that, moving forward, EMS agencies and municipalities must communicate effectively to understand each others’ needs. Municipalities must also consider cooperative agreements with other municipalities and agencies.

Ferguson also said that, in the future, there could be an increase in “paramedicine” where EMS providers will be offering services to help people address issues before they turn into an emergency situation that requires health care with the highest costs.

“We can take a serious look as communities, as EMS providers, as agencies, to think outside the box,” Ferguson said.

During a brief Q & A period, one Kennett Square

resident shared a story that illustrated the importance of quality EMS services.

The man explained that his wife fell in their home and broke her neck. There was a quick response from firstresponders. Today, she is doing much better, in part because of the prompt and professional treatment. The man said that they would be willing to pay higher taxes to ensure that that kind of service could be maintained.

Ferguson said that a variety of factors need to be evaluated when a local community makes decisions about EMS services.

In the coming months, there will be additional conversations taking place in the Kennett Square region. The presentation by Ferguson provided some valuable information for officials and residents to consider.

“Right now, there is not a specific path forward,” Fetick emphasized. “This is the beginning of the conversation, not the end.”

Plenty of treasures waiting to be discovered at the Old Dusty Cupboard at Barnsley Road Antiques & Flea Market

By Steven Hoffman Staff Writer Antiques, handmade crafts, primitives, decorative items and other treasures are just waiting to be discovered at the Old Dusty Cupboard at Barnsley Road Antiques & Flea Market in Oxford.

The store, which opened in July of last year, is located in the old Chrome Dairy building on Barnsley Road.

It has a very comfortable, country living vibe.

“Everybody who walks in, they always say how the atmosphere is so welcoming,” explained Jean Barker, the owner of the store. She added “The Old Dusty Cupboard” into the name of the store because it hints at the wide variety of fun items that can be found there—everything from Hess trucks and miscellaneous Cocoa Cola products to clocks and paintings. There are toys for children, dolls for collectors, and furniture at every price point. There are seasonal items and lots of handmade crafts to enjoy.

You never know what treasures you’ll find at the store.

“It really just depends on the season,” Barker explained.

One reason that there will always be something new at The Old Dusty Cupboard is that Barker is always hard at work making new items.

“I’ve always been a crafter,” she said, explaining that her mother taught her how to sew at a young age. Customers love her primitive dolls, pillows, and punch-needle embroidery items that are so popular right now.

When Barker is asked how many items in the shop are handmade by her, Barker laughed. “Oh, my,” she said. “There might be more than 100 pieces. I’m constantly creating new

things.”

Is it ever hard to sell an item that she made by hand?

Not really, Barker replied.

She pointed out that while she certainly loves some of things that she makes by hand, it is very gratifying to know that others love it, too.

“You put your heart into it,” Barker explained, “but it brings a lot of joy to me to see other people want to put the pieces in their homes.”

Barker said that she loves interacting with customers, and customers, in turn, like talking to the person who has made some of the items that are available in the store.

“I think people really like that it’s a local person making these items,” Barker explained.

Of course, not all the items are handmade. Some are hard-to-find treasures of the past. Barker herself likes shopping around for antiques. Barnsley Road Antiques & Flea Market features a co-op of vendors offering the best antiques and collectibles. Right now, there are 16 regular vendors who set up shop at the location, offering a wide variety of items.

“We’re offering outdoor spaces for $5 per space.

It’s open to everybody who wants to sign up,” Barker explained.

The goal is to continue to expand the number of vendors so that that customers have an even greater selection when they visit.

The hours for the Old Dusty Cupboard are Thursday and Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information, email Barker at barnsleyroadfleamarket@ outlook.com or visit the business on Facebook.

“The function of the petition was only to place the question on the ballot,” he said. “The question will be on the Primary Election ballot, on May 21. Registered Franklin Township voters will decide the issue by referendum ballot, an up or down vote. If not approved, the issue cannot be brought to the voters again for four years.”

Auerbach feels that a restaurant offering alcohol sales would be a benefit for residents who now have to travel outside of the township. “The primary benefit would be the facility, with some tax revenue as secondary benefit,” he said.

“The increased value of a facility property would yield some real estate tax, and the employees would pay a 0.5 percent EIT. “Some people were concerned about a neighborhood nuisance bar or some other undesirable drinking emporium,” he added. “There are several factors that would limit these types of facilities.

The current cost of a liquor license is $500,000. This economic hurdle would make these facilities untenable. Additionally, there can only be one license in Franklin. A population of 3,000 people is required for each license, and Franklin only has 4,500.”

the attention of the board numerous times over the seven years I have served on the board,” he said this week. “The consensus of the boards, past and present, has been to remove the restriction on alcohol sales.

“I had serious doubts about gathering the 558 signatures required in the short time period required

by Chester County Voter Services [Feb. 19 to March 12],” Auerbach added.

“That time period is typically fraught with bad winter weather, not accommodating to door-to-door activity. One or two winter storms on the weekends available would have had a serious negative effect.

On March 1, preceding a potential weekend of signature collection, weather forecast was snow, mixed precipitation and cold rain. At that point, I had somewhat less than 200 signatures. I was more than pessimistic and frankly thought the opportunity had passed us.”

The 34 volunteers who circulated the petition on foot, however, rose to the challenge. “By March 3, we had 358 signatures, and I then thought there was a chance of success,” Auerbach said. “The circulators worked on diligently and the total continued to increase. By March 4, we had 590 signatures and the total eventually grew to 666. I filed the petition with Chester County Voter To contact Staff Writer Services on March 8.”

Road conditions...

are considered those that require routine maintenance, such as crack sealing and minor patching; “Fair” roads are classified as those that need crack sealing and major patching and preventative treatments; “Poor” roads are those that require structural improvements; and “Failed” roads are those that require complete reconstruction.

While that's mostly good news for township residents concerned about their roads, it comes with the pressing reality of maintaining road conditions against the backdrop of several factors. Historically, Kinsey said, the township has projected a 20-year lifespan for township roads, but due to a variety of conditions, that length of time is subject to change in in the future. He said that “Superpave,” a PennDOT-approved asphalt mix that is designed for major roadways, contains less oil to reduce rutting.

In addition, the township has recently absorbed the increased wear-and-tear of 6 new cul de sacs, as well as 3.82 more lane miles and 9 new intersections.

Increased traffic and population is also impacting township roads. The 2000 Census reported that 5,285 residents lived in the township; by 2010, the number rose to 7,475; and in 2017, it was reported that the township's population rose to 8,665 – a 64 percent increase over 17 years. As a result, Kinsey said that the number of daily drivers on township roads rose from 4,123 a day

A recent evaluation of the 180 roads in London Grove Township revealed that 63 of them are rated “Very Good” and 90 are rated “Good.”

in Oct. 2011 to 4,447 in Sept.

2016.

“It doesn't sound like a lot, but when you add that up, it's 118,000 trips per year, and over two million added trips over the lifespan of that road, so the road degrades a lot faster,” Kinsey said.

Added to that impact is the increased number of truck trips along township roadways – exacerbated by the surge in online shopping and home deliveries. A truck's impact on a road is staggering; Kinsey said that one truck trip on a road is equivalent to 10,000 car trips.

“Every trash truck – every tri-axle truck making a delivery into our new developments -- is tearing up our roads at a much higher rate,” he said. “If you have ten homes, you have ten trips. Any way we can reduce truck traffic, which we're pretty limited in doing, is going to help save our roads.”

While the township continues to make strides in maintaining its roads in light of these impacts, Kinsey rec-

ommended that the township budget as much as $600,000 per year for general road maintenance alone.

“We need to budget for the surface treatment of these roads every 10 to 15 years, and resurfacing every 20 [years],” he said. “We're working towards that, but it may go up.”

The Public Works Department repaired 3.13 miles of township roads in 2018, at a cost of $590,963, which included work on Greenfield Lane, Bentley Road, Schoolhouse Road, Avondale Road, Paschall Road and Chambers Road.

The department has budgeted $369,782 in 2019 toward repairs on Sullivan Road, Holly Lane, Lake Road and Mosquito Lane.

Kinsey shared the department's three-year plan for road projects in the township, beginning in 2020, when it plans to make improvements to Garden Station Road, the Sullivan Station subdivision and Valley Road. In 2021 – repairs are projected for the Ashland Woods subdivi-

sion, South Guernsey Road, the Wickerton subdivision, and along Spencer Road, Bell Lane, Auburn Road and Rosehill Road.

In 2022, the department has planned road maintenance for Clay Creek Road, the Hills of Sullivan subdivision and Briarchase Road.

Kinsey said that repairs are also projected to be made to “special condition” roads in the next few years. They include Baker Station Road, which will be reconstructed as part of the London Grove West project; Hepburn Road, from the top of the London Grove Village Boulevard to County Bridge #59; West Woodview Road, which will be reconstructed as part of the Coventry Reserve project; and State Road, from Rose Hill Road to Wickerton Road.

The report was also compiled by Michael Tome, Public Works Department foreman.

Opinion

Editorial

Letter to the Editor

The justice seekers

Houlahan’s positions don’t reflect values of Chester County

Decency, when exercised individually, can begin to move one rock forward. When it becomes illuminated against the backdrop of massive protest, it gathers the collected strength that magnitudes can bring and suddenly, decency begins to move mountains.

Over the last two weeks, in congregation after congregation – in blue states and in red states -- Methodist churches across the U.S. have unified in their opposition to a 438-384 vote by delegates at the United Methodist Church’s General Conference in St. Louis on Feb. 26 to maintain the church’s Traditional Plan, which rejects same sex marriages in the church, and does not permit members of the LBGTQ community to serve as clergy.

With their vote, delegates rejected the One Church Plan, a measure that would have eased restrictions on LGBTQ clergy and same-sex marriages, and allowed individual churches to decide how they handle issues of same-sex weddings and the sexuality of their clergy. It was an appalling declaration of ugliness that echoed the sound of what happens when discrimination is brought to a vote.

On March 2 at the Friends Meeting House in Kennett Square, about 40 parishioners from the Church of the Open Door met for a gathering of peace, unity and strength – a prayer of protest and solidarity that had teeth in it. It was led by Pastor Lydia Munoz, a compassionate visionary who leads her congregation on a spiritual journey of faith that is not defined by skin color, beliefs, culture and orientation, but emboldened by it. The Church of the Open Door is just that – a United Methodist church that is intentionally diverse, fully inclusive, progressive and reconciling.

The Holy Communion of March 2 at the Church of the Open Door was a generous and bold balancing act of what we believe every church should aspire to become: The truest expression of God, through prayer and through protest; to have the courage to call out oppression and bigotry and hatred and the blindness of myopic thinking, even when it comes from one’s own church. At its greatest, a church is never quiet, but accumulates the value of its teachings and forms them into an unrelenting and very loud voice, that it takes it to the streets and to its people, in order to seek justice.

In order for them to survive in the wake of false idolatries, clickable distractions and the murmuring hum of disassociation from conflict, our modern houses of faith must engender to form a new relevancy and up their game in the world’s conversation. If they are to remain relevant, they must create and display a spirit of decency so powerful that they risk losing some of their believers by virtue of that spirit, and march on.

This must become their daily bread. The work of the Church of the Open Door on March 2, much like the voices of protest that are coming from churches in the face of the injustices toward the LGBTQ community, are forming the loaves of communion – and decency – that will feed the world’s soul, not tear it apart.

Letter to the Editor: With less than two months in office, the evidence is in and strike three has been called.

The façade of moderation for 6th District U.S. Representative Chrissy Houlahan has crumbled and her full-blown progressivism is now exposed.

Strike one was her pre-election appearance on HBO’s “Pod Save America” broadcast on Oct. 27, 2018. After less than two minutes into the interview, she embraced identity politics and the

tenet of victimization.

Given the audience, her pandering could have been a case of a savvy politician.

Strike two was her parroting talking points “this shutdown” is a “manufactured crisis” without understanding that the largest drug bust in Chester County history involved a Mexican Drug Cartel and the adverse impact of this illegal activity on constituents was and is preventable. Her rookie status naivety could be dismissed as a go-along-to-get-along eagerness to please her party over a sober under-

standing of the issues facing the 6th District.

Strike three is her full embrace of the morally righteous progressive sanctuary philosophy.

Her Nay vote on HR 8 Motion to Recommit Roll Call 98 on Feb. 27, places her in the camp of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Nancy Pelosi. Fellow Pennsylvania Democrat Representative Connor Lamb voted in support of the question. Chrissy Houlahan wants undocumented immigrants who try to purchase a gun (hopefully denied under

the background check) not to be reported to Immigration and Customs Enforcement. So a criminal attempts to buy a gun and they should not be questioned and motives determined. Although a third-generation veteran, Chrissy is a clueless progressive, and her ideas are a danger. A good 2020 campaign slogan for Representative Houlahan is “California Values for Chester County.”

Chester County’s wonderful landscape is due to talented professionals from the private and public sectors

By Judy DiFilippo Chester County 2020 Board Member and a former chair of the Chester County Planning Commission Luck had no role in the preservation of Chester County’s wonderful landscape during the past decades.

Many talented professionals in the private and public sectors worked together to devise the county’s award-winning Landscapes plans and to execute the smart growth concept that has helped Chester County evolve into one of the best counties in the nation to live, work and raise a family.

Chester County 2020 is a non-profit organization helping to create livable communities by bringing people together to find common ground and then working to transform dialogue into action. Each year, the organization selects individuals worthy of its Citizen Planner awards. This year Chester

County 2020 is honoring two such winners, one from the public sector and one from the private sector.

In the private sector, Sarah Peck, principal of Progressive New Homes, is a recognized expert on infill housing development and the concept’s growing acceptance in suburban communities.

She is a former CEO of Rouse/Chamberlin Homes of Exton and co-founder of the Housing Partnership of Chester County.

Peck was named “National Builder of the Year” by Professional Builder Magazine and has served as adjunct professor of West Chester University.

Progressive New Homes builds progressive, affordably priced homes in Chester and Montgomery counties.

Besides having a plan to preserve our valuable land, Chester County needs builders and contractors willing to provide quality housing and Sarah and her company has done so.

In the public sec-

tor, David Ward, former assistant director of the Chester County Planning Commission, has been involved in planning for more than 40 years. Last year, David retired from the Chester County Planning Commission after a distinguished career.

David played a key role in developing the county’s award-winning Landscapes program and managed the first revision of the plan, Landscapes 2.

He is deserving of Chester County 2020’s Lifetime Achievement award.

He worked tirelessly with county municipalities during his tenure with Chester County and will continue to serve as an instructor and board member of the Pennsylvania Municipal Education Institute.

The awards are being given at Chester County 2020’s annual reception on April 25 at Chester Valley Golf Club. For those interested in attending, see www.CC202.org.

The event is always informative and this year the master of ceremonies will be Ken

Knickerbocker, publisher of American Community Journals, a network that includes VISTA.Today.

Since 1996, Chester County 2020 has been a change agent working to connect and educate the county’s resident and business and political leaders.

We engage stakeholders in cooperative efforts to address common issues; dispel misguided rumors that develop in any community discussion; and produce measurable action on issues that affect the county’s quality of life.

Direct involvement with natural resource protection and farmland preservation continues as Chester County 2020 responds to issues involving the dynamics of an increasing population. While Chester County should be proud of its achievements, the county must be vigilant in maintaining our landscapes. The county is hard at work on implementing Landscapes 3. We’ll continue to need professionals as dedicated as Sarah Peck and David Ward.

In Politics, you need priorities

By Lee H. Hamilton It’s been many decades now, but I still remember a piece of advice I got not long after entering Congress. It came in passing from a prominent journalist as we were talking about the bewildering array of issues Congress faced. Every day, he told me, I should ask myself a simple question: “What’s the most important thing to be doing today?”

He was raising what may be the toughest problem in

politics, though it’s one you don’t really confront until you take office: what do you focus on at any given moment?

Sometimes this is easy to answer. The 9/11 attacks occur, and the whole country turns to the agenda rising from that event. A river floods in your home district, and you put everything aside to deal with the problems created in towns and cities along its banks.

But in ordinary times, when we have the luxury of addressing every other

pressing issue we face, legislators at all levels of government are confronted each day by a single, uncomfortable question: Am I doing what I most need to be doing right now?

For the number of challenges facing policy-makers is simply staggering.

Let’s just look at the federal level, and start with the economic ones. At any given time, they’re wrestling with: • the economic growth rate; • the need to provide broad-based economic opportunity; • the perception and often the reality that too many Americans are being left behind; • the challenge that adults today feel less likely to earn as much as their parents, and see a similar fate for their children; • the need for investment in schools, hospitals, highways and other infrastructure; • annual deficits and a federal debt that has grown out of control; • appropriate levels of taxation.

Domestic policy challenges are no less daunting: • immigration and civil rights protections; • the quality and availability of health care; • the cost of higher education;

• the difficulty of arriving at a common set of agreed-upon facts, let alone the possibility of building political consensus; • deep political divisions and our inability to negotiate and compromise.

Third, there’s a set of foreign-policy questions that seem without end: • climate change; • cyber-attacks and election meddling; • hostile powers like North Korea and Iran; • powerful adversaries such as Russia and China; • global challenges such as environmental degradation and nuclear proliferation; • terrorism; • the constant powder-keg of the Middle East.

This is just a partial list.

And even so, it’s hard not to feel overwhelmed.

Moreover, these are the same problems we faced last year, and we’ll face them again in 2020. Many are intractable, impossible to solve. The best we can do is manage them, chipping away year by year.

In a very real way, the depth and breadth of the many challenges we face show the depth and breadth of America’s abilities and ambitions. They are a symbol of all we have done and all we are trying to achieve.

They also ought to create some sympathy for our policy makers, who sit down with an impossible agenda every day and try to make progress on it.

So how do they establish priorities? The plain fact is that you can’t solve problems like these alone. You

Finally, the political challenges: • uncertainty about whether our political system can meet the challenges confronting it; • the disintegration of the political center; • the weakening of political institutions; • the depressing quality of political discourse;

need to find a lot of people who agree with you about them — and can agree on approaches to resolving them. So it’s not simply a matter of asking oneself, “What do I think our biggest problem is?” It’s also, “What do I think is the biggest problem I can make progress on?” The answer involves the opinions of a lot of other people as well.

In short, my journalist friend was on the mark.

Maybe the best you can do each day is ask yourself, Am I putting my energy where it ought to be right now? It’s what makes governing such a bewildering, challenging job. It’s also what lies at its heart.

Avon Grove Charter School student designs township logo

By Richard L. Gaw Staff Writer Kameryn Stockar, an 11th grader at Avon Grove Charter School, was named the winning entrant in a contest sponsored by London Grove Township that asked students at the Charter School and Avon Grove High School to submit concepts for the township’s new graphic identity.

Stockar’s design was one of ten entries submitted to the township, and she was awarded a $250 check at the Board of Supervisors meeting on March 6. Each student who entered into the contest was given a set of guidelines by the township.

In her statement that accompanied her submitted design, Stockar wrote, “This logo shows London Grove Township’s farm land and development, side by side,

Courtesy art

The new London Grove Township logo incorporates the concept of open space, properly planned development and the White Clay Creek waterway.

and the White Clay Creek running through. These elements together show that the township can provide both beautiful country land and comfortable homes, so that, along with nature, the

community can co-exist peacefully.”

“The first thing I did was go online to see what other townships had done, and then I just started drawing to see what I liked

by incorporating different elements, and this just happened to be the one I liked the best,” said Stockar, an avid equestrian who plans to pursue her passion after she graduates.

“Kameryn’s the one who came up with the ideas, and I was just a guide along the way,” said Sylvo Szabo, Stockar’s visual arts teacher at Avon Grove Charter School. “We talked about things like what goes into a good logo, and how a standard logo differs from a township logo or a seal.

Kameryn has an ability to compact a concept into a small package. Whereas other students focused on one or two elements, Kameryn was able to put three elements into one image, and do it effectively.”

Penn Township discusses police activities, waiver requests, and more

By Marcella Peyre-Ferry Staff Writer Cpl. Brian Naylor of the Pennsylvania State Police Avondale Barracks was on hand at the March 6 Penn Township Board of Supervisors meeting to provide an update on police activity in the municipality, Naylor reported a total of 191 incidents in Penn Township in the month of February, and of that total 29 were security checks and 55 were traffic stops.

Out of the 55 traffic stops, 22 resulted in citations with 33 warnings given.

Other incidents included requests for assistance from other agencies.

Only f ive calls were criminal incidents, and three of those were drug possession.

Penn Township board members commented on seeing more police presence in the area recently.

“We want to be visible.

We all have a car, we should be out in the neighborhoods. That’s how we find the bad guys,” Naylor said.

Township Manager Karen Versuk had very positive comments about the relationship between the township, residents,

and the State Police. She is particularly proud of the Sunny Day Camp held at the township park. The event is a special day for special needs youngsters to come out and have fun and meet the police in a stress-free environment.

Under business items, following the advice of the township solicitor, the board denied a request from the Avon Grove School District for a waiver of a landdevelopment plan for a playground tree house.

Board member Victor Mantegna abstained from the vote.

The school district may still go forward with plans for the playground structure, but will follow the normal landdevelopment process that leads to approvals and eventual issuance of a building permit.

The proposed playground structure for the Penn London School playground is to be built by students from the Technical College High School.

In other business, township officials said that they are expecting the delivery of 300 more tons of road salt to stay prepared for icy road conditions.

The Brandywine shares a new perspective on American art

By John Chambless Staff Writer The Brandywine River Museum of Art has benefited tremendously from a recent bequest of American art, and visitors get to share the bounty in “American Beauty: Highlights from the Richard M. Scaife Bequest,” which opened on March 8.

Scaife, a publisher, philanthropist and art collector, passed away in 2014 and left his entire art collection to be divided between the Brandywine, where he was longtime trustee, and the Westmoreland Museum of Art in Greensburg, Pa. The show at the Brandywine contains highlights from both museum collections.

Spanning 58 works – most of which have not been seen outside of Scaife’s private collections in his four homes – “American Beauty” adds depth and breadth to the Brandywine’s holdings of American art, particularly landscapes.

While selected according to Scaife’s personal taste, the collection gives an overview of American art that’s immediately accessible. Landscapes are the focus, and they include works by major artists such as William Merritt Chase, Albert Bierstadt, George Inness and others.

There are dazzling moments in the exhibition, both by artists you recognize and those you won’t. James Hart’s “Farmington, CT,” for instance, is a view of a farm, field and distant mountain that has razorsharp details, and a perfect, slanting summer sunlight. “Maine Coast,”

by Alfred T. Bricher, has an extraordinary light and a wall of clouds that captures both the air and the essence of the scene.

On the other hand, “Moonrise, Alexandria Bay,” by George Inness, is a soft-focus but tremendously evocative summer scene.

The Brandywine’s first choice in the Scaife bequest is “New Jersey Salt Marsh,”

by Martin Johnson Heade, that has a glowing sunset and barely discernible human figures in the midst of a broad swath of marshland.

Not every painting is a large-scale highlight.

Take time to explore and you’ll find the small, tranquil “The Tow Path” by William Merritt Chase, and the similarly understated “Coast of California” by Albert Bierstadt, although his huge “California Coast” is more typical of his immersive scale and style.

Edward Willis Redfield’s “Garden of the Girls” is a glorious garden of vivid blooms, with a blue inlet and sky beyond, and there’s a distinct winter gloom in “Hillside Farm” by Chauncey Foster Ryder.

Among the more understated works is “Beach Scene, Coney Island” by Edward Henry Pothast, which shows a group of elaborately attired 1900s bathers dashing into the rolling surf in a moment of unguarded joy. “Yacht Club Basin” by Theodore Robinson, is small but gets the most out of its luxurious blue water and scattered white sailboats.

There’s a striking depth in “New England Doorway” by Abbott Fuller

Graves, which has a justright dappled sunlight on the garden path and the white door. In a darker vein is William Merritt Chase’s “Interior, Oak Manor,” which is large enough to let you appreciate the scale of the room, the sheen on the polished floor, the sumptuous colors and the air of quiet stillness.

“The Goldfish,” a 1911 tour de force by Charles Courtney Curran, is an almost three-dimensional depiction of a woman in a gauzy, translucent gown, with her arm extended over a fish bowl with water rendered so perfectly you can almost feel it.

“The Appraisal,” by Guy Pene du Bois, makes a sly comment on upperclass relationships and an uncertain moment between two formally dressed people. There are no answers to who or what is being appraised, but the painting hints at the cause of the stony silence and sidelong gaze.

In short, there is much to like in the new additions, and you are certain to come face to face with some landscapes that stop you in your tracks as you

“American Beauty: Highlights from the Richard M. Scaife Bequest” continues at the Brandywine River Museum of Art (Route 1, Chadds Ford) through May 27. Visit www.brandywinemuseum. org for more information.

Circles are the theme at Square Pear Gallery

By John Chambless Staff Writer It’s easy to pick up the theme of the March show at the Square Pear Gallery in Kennett Square, “Round and Round.”

The show, which is more abstract than recent exhibitions there, has circles and loops everywhere, and the variety of materials and styles keeps it all fresh and unexpected.

Charles Emlen’s “Gas Phase Orbiter” is a whimsical, Sputnik-like metal sculpture bristling with appendages that do nothing, but look like they should. All of Emlen’s sculptures are great fun, and make dynamic gestures in the gallery.

Susan Melrath has several large encaustic/mixed media abstracts that incorporate circles and a whole lot more.

The translucent layers of paint and the overlapped, etched surfaces are endlessly fascinating, and plunging into the depths of the paint is as intriguing as trying to puzzle out the interplay of the elements in each composition. Melrath’s “Dot Com” is a room-filling piece, but even her small works – such as “Small Mercies” – have lovely details.

Rhoda Kahler’s stoneware panel “Balance” is a serene composition with a jumble of letters and numbers on one side, and a single, tranquil O on the other – suggesting layers of interpretation. And Kahler’s “Mother Sphere,” shown in the gallery window, is a world of textures and hidden interior spaces.

Lee Muslin has a row of vividly colored abstract acrylics that dart and jump with restless energy. Sculptor Thomas Ransom shows a lovely, simple metal sculpture, “The Balancer’s Eye,” that ever so carefully intertwines two curved metal ribbons that almost – but not quite – touch in the center, balancing each other perfectly.

Sculptor Stan Smokler has two spheres in the front gallery that suggest molten planets, perhaps, and the larger one has peep holes so you can see through it to the other side.

In a more traditional vein are floral still lifes by Monique Sarkessian, with round blooms that fit into the “Round and Round” theme very well. Lele Galer has one metal sculpture on view, a series of circular holes filled with variously twisted and coiled metal, titled “Seven Days a Week.”

And there’s a series of four vertical abstract paintings

by Lee Muslin that share a

joyously looping black line that darts through each panel. Each painting, though, stands on its own, with orange/red tones that recall a Southwest sunset.

“Round and Round” continues at the Square Pear Gallery (200 E. State St.,

LANA W. GILL Lana W. Gill (Shortlidge), 75, of West Grove, left this earth on March 3 at the Jennersville Hospital, for her home in heaven.

She was the wife of Earl Shortlidge, with whom she shared 40 years of marriage. Born in Wilmington, Del., she was the daughter of the late Harry T. Woodward, Jr., and the late Isabel Jenkins Woodward.

She lived in Avondale until she was about 2, then the family moved to Jennsersville, until 1954. After that they lived in New Castle, Del., for a year, moving to Cochranville in 1955. She graduated from Octoraro High School, class of 1962, where she remained class treasurer for over 50 years, due to her being on the reunion committee. Playing with other people’s money was her niche in life. She was a bookkeeper for Cochranville Block Company for 22 years, moving on to Brandywine Mushroom Company in West Grove, and Frank Battaglia, CPA, in Kennett Square, until she opened her own business in 1991. She was the treasurer of many organizations that she belonged to over the years. Lana was involved with the West Grove United Methodist Church and taught Sunday School for 10 years, worked with the youth fellowship and was on the administrative council. She was also a part of the Girl Scouts, being a “cookie mother” for a number of years.

Avon Grove Band Boosters and PTO were also a part of her life.

In addition to her husband Earl, she is survived by her brother, Larry Woodard of West Chester; her sister, Rita Phillos of Avondale; and stepdaughter, Mindy Gunzl of Newark, Del. She had nieces, nephews and an extended family of the Andersons, Shaubs and Camps. Her daughter, Missie Gill, passed away in 1989 and has been missed every day since then.

Her service and burial were held privately. In lieu of flowers, make a donation to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, 501 St. Jude Place, Memphis, TN 38105. To view her online tribute and to share a memory with her family, visit www.kuzoandfoulkfh.com.

LEWIS PORTER HOWARD KINSEY Lewis “Lew” Porter Howard Kinsey, 84, of Kennett Square, went to be with his beloved wife Rosemary and his Lord and Savior on March 9. Lew fought a courageous battle with congestive heart failure.

He was a Military Police officer in the U.S. Army’s 101st Airborne division Korea Pusan from 1955 to 1957. He then began a corporate career at American Express in the traveler’s check division.

He worked there for over 25 years and was loved by all, especially his customers. He was a very active member of The Presbyterian Church of Kennett Square as a Deacon and Trustee. He served there for over 40 years. He was also a Rotary member in Kennett Square for over two decades.

Post retirement, Lew worked in the hardware industry at Pyle’s, ACE Brandywine Hardware and finally at M.S. Yearsley’s. Lew always loved playing Santa Claus at M.S.Yearsley’s during the Christmas season. He volunteered at Longwood Gardens and especially loved to run their model trains during the holidays. Lew’s greatest hobby was working outdoors.

He was born in Darby, Pa., in 1934 to Howard and Edith Kinsey (Skull). He grew up on Wit’s End Farm in Downingtown, which is now where the Whitford Country Club stands. He graduated from Downingtown High School in 1955. He met the love of his life in Washington, D.C. They were married in 1959. Lew and Rosemary celebrated their 59th wedding anniversary this past November.

He is survived by his daughter, Tish Copeland (Jason); his son, Stockton Kinsey (Tina); and four grandchildren.

Services will be held March 16 at The Presbyterian Church of Kennett Square (211 S. Broad St., Kennett Square). Visitation will begin at 9 a.m. and the funeral service will begin at 10 a.m. Interment will be at Union Hill Cemetery in Kennett Square. A reception will immediately follow the interment.
