Flood mitigation project to cost less Savings of $400,000 seen

BY NATALIE GENTRY The revised budget for the Main Street creek widening and fl ood mitigation project is now estimated to be approximately $1.4 million instead of the original figure of $2.2 million.

In response to the decrease in the overall budget, the Parker County commissioners have voted to adjust the county’s 50 percent cost-share agreement with the city from $1.1 million to $700,000.

The project focuses on fl ooding at the intersection of FM Road 51 and State Highway 199 and includes three phases of improvements.

In addition, the project has facilitated partnerships between the City of Springtown, Parker County, and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT).

cisions made that eliminate the need to obtain permits and mitigation costs associated with altering the course of a waterway of the United States.” said Springtown City Manager Mark Krey.

Chris Bosco, of Freese and Nichols, said, “Working with the Corps of Engineers, we came up with a project so that we don’t have to mitigate the channel widening. We’re able to accomplish that without disturbing the natural original channel.”

Krey noted, “The revised plan has been submitted to the Corps of Engineers and they have signed off on it so we know we are good to go.”

Commissioners have added their approval for Freese and Nichols to proceed with a fi nal design and construction of this phase.

“We also met with TxDOT to discuss what steps need to be taken for the bridge widening,” Bosco said.

Work continues on the Springtown Splashpad

BY NATALIE GENTRY Construction on the Springtown Splashpad is steadily progressing toward its Memorial Day weekend grand opening.

The park took shape last week as water elements were installed and the majority of the masonry was completed on the restroom and the admissions building.

The interior of the restroom was painted as well.

The rain earlier this week has caused

a delay in some of the work, but that should not adversely impact the overall schedule.

In response to concerns voiced about the cost of the splashpad’s water usage, Springtown City Administrator, Mark Krey explained the choice to direct used water to the wastewater treatment plant instead of processing it on-site.

Earth will be removed north of Walnut Creek’s natural high water mark and the channel under the bridge will be widened to increase flood capacity.

A trail is also included in the plans to enable pedestrians to go under the bridge instead of crossing FM 51.

Phase Two Phase two of the project entails raising the bridge about five feet to accommodate possible water levels of a 50year storm.

A reconfiguration of the FM 51 and Highway 199 intersection is also planned in order to improve traffic flow.

style system we chose deals primarily with the expense and health concerns of operating a splashpad that recirculates the water on-site,” Krey said. “That style of system would require staff members who regularly test the water for bacteria and appropriately use chemicals to treat the water.”

The flow through system that the city chose eliminates the health risk by having a constant freshwater supply, he said.

“Ultimately the water used by the splashpad is recycled since our wastewater plant effluent flows into Eagle Mountain which also serves as our surface water supply,” Krey said.

Krey also said the city council learned from talking with experts in the field and other municipalities operating splashpads that the flow-through pads require less maintenance since there are no pumps to keep up.

Additionally, the utilities are lower because there are fewer items run by electricity.

“Both systems require a water supply that replenishes the water at the splashpad so neither one is truly self-contained.” Krey said.

37-year sentence given to Ford in child sexual abuse case n 37-year, FROM PAGE ONE.

provided numerous details of the sexual abuse that she suffered at Ford’s hands.

“This was one very brave girl,” Catania said. “Her vivid descriptions to the jury about things that no 10-year-old girl should know, things that only someone who had either been in an adult sexual relationship or sexually abused would know, gave her testimony tremendous credibility.”

During the guilt-innocence phase of trial, a trio of witnesses was called by the prosecution: the girl’s neighbor who was first person the victim

told about the abuse; a sexual assault nurse examiner from Cook Children’s Hospital; and Parker County Sheriff’s Office Investigator Ricky Montgomery.

“In his interview with Montgomery, Ford said that the victim must have misunderstood the ‘bumps, bruises, and rashes checks’ that he performed on her while naked as something sexual,” Swain said. “This corroborated the victim’s descriptions, but her testimony made it clear that he went far beyond just checking the victim for injuries.”

Jurors deliberated for about

two and a half hours before finding Ford guilty of continuous sexual abuse of a young child, the highest level charge submitted to the jury.

During the punishment phase of trial, the defense introduced evidence that Ford had served for about eight years in the United States Army and had received numerous commendations and medals.

“At the end of the day, while his service in the army was admirable, what he did to this little girl was deplorable and deserving of a severe sentence,” Swain said.

During closing arguments

on punishment, Swain asked jurors to compare their earliest childhood memories and first sexual experiences with those that the victim will have to live with for the rest of her life.

Jurors deliberated for about an hour and a half before returning with a 37-year prison sentence.

“Since there is no parole allowed for this kind of offense, Ford will not be released from prison until 2049,” said District Attorney Don Schnebly. “We Jerrell rutherford, SiSD maintenance and ground suappreciate the jury’s work on pervisor, spoke to the Springtown Optimist club april Photo by Mark K.

Water restrictions still in effect

by Natalie GeNtry Although the recent rains have left the ground soft and the grass growing at an accelerated rate, they haven’t been enough to lift the current water restrictions in place for Springtown.

According to the U.S. Drought Monitor, North Texas is currently experiencing a moderate drought.

Both the Tarrant Regional Water District (TRWD) and the Walnut Creek Special Utilities District (SUD) have the same water restrictions in place.

When to water The watering schedule is identical for TRWD and Walnut Creek SUD customers.

Residential addresses ending in 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8 may water on Wednesdays and Saturdays between midnight and 10 a.m. and 8 p.m. to midnight.

Odd-numbered residential addresses – those ending in 1,3,5,7, or 9 – may water on Sundays and Thursdays between the hours of midnight-10 a.m. and 8 p.m. to midnight.

Non-residential sites – apartments, businesses, parks, and common areas – may water on Tuesdays and Fridays.

No watering is allowed on Monday.

Watering with a sprinkler or automatic irrigation system is also prohibited between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. every day.

Up to 30 percent of the water sprayed on lawns during this time of the day can be lost to evaporation.

These restrictions do not apply to sites using well water or wastewater effluent for irrigation.

How to help Even with the Stage One water restrictions in place, there is still more that can be done to help conserve water.

Savetarrantwater.com offers a variety of tips to help residents.

Rather than running spray heads over the entire yard for a long period of time, try watering sections of the yard in shorter bursts, with one hour between cycles. This process gives the water time to soak in instead of running off.

Only apply an inch of water to the lawn once a week during the summer. This schedule encourages deeper root systems and makes for hardier grass.

It ain’t easy being green

Rutherford oversees SISD’s ground and facilities by mark k. campbell Supervising the care of the school district’s grounds and facilities is a full-time job, Jerrell Rutherford said.

Speaking to the Springtown Optimist Club April 22, “Coach Rut” said he’s been in town 25 years, first as a coach and now as the maintenance and grounds supervisor.

Initially, SISD had just one mower, he recalled.

Today there are five to mow the SISD’s 300 acres. Even with the Porcupine Stadium turf being artificial, there’s still

plenty to mow, Rutherford said.

He said he and two others have attended classes at Texas A&M to get the most bang for their buck when it comes to being efficient.

“There’s actually a math equation that tells you how often to mow,” Rutherford chuckled.

He and others are licensed to handle and distribute chemicals. Rutherford said the state comes by “occasionally” to make sure things are being done by the book.

PLEASE SEE SiSD, PAGE 8A.

Still WaterS Use rain and freeze sensors that trigger automatic sprinkler systems to shut off during downpours or when temperatures dip near freezing.

Allow grass to grow and leave lawn clippings on the lawn. Taller grass and the clippings hold moisture and slow down evaporation.

Drip irrigation in flowerbeds, ground cover, vegetable gardens and container plants saves water by allowing targeted watering near plant roots. Spray heads can be converted with spray-to-drip adapters.

Finally, a water meter can

help a homeowner check for leaks. Turn off all fixtures and record the meter reading. After a couple of hours check to see if the meter reading has changed.

If it has, there is a leak.

By Natalie GeNtry With the Springtown Chamber of Commerce’s clay shoot’s success under its belt, group members have turned their attention to the next big event of the year.

The Fifth Annual All American Bicycle Rally is set for Saturday, June 14.

Last year almost 200 riders participated in

along the course.

Perspective riders can register at www.bikereg. com or download the application from the Chamber’s website and fax (with credit or debit card information) to the Chamber office at 817-523-3268.

For more information contact the Springtown Chamber at info@springtownchamber.org or by phone at 817-220-7828.

the ride and the feedback indicates that everyone enjoyed the rally and barbecue immediately following the race.

Amy Walker, Chamber Director, anticipates an even bigger event in 2014.

“Our riders enjoy the beautiful Parker County countryside, safe and well planned routes, and plenty of friendly volunteers along the various

routes.” Walker said. “You’ll be treated to light refreshments and water and Gatorade at our friendly rest stops as well as a delicious barbecue sandwich meal at the end of the ride.”

With four routes to choose from, the goal is to provide a course for every level of cyclist.

In addition, volunteers are always needed and welcomed– even if it’s only to cheer bikers

“Serving Springtown Since 1977”

RSV Infection Can Affect Infants & Adults Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a virus that affects the respiratory tract of many children and adults. When the infection occurs, it can be serious in premature children and older adults. The virus starts to show symptoms four to six days after infection. Symptoms are those that are typical of a cold - fever, soreness, runny nose, and headache. Signs of severe illness include difficulty breathing, high fever, wheezing, and cough because of a bacterial infection. Severe RSV infection may lead to other respiratory problems in premature infants. Complications may include a middle ear infection, lung infection and asthma.

Over-the-counter (OTC) medications may help treat mild cold symptoms. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) and ibuprofen (Advil) may be taken to help reduce fever. The maximum dosage of acetaminophen should not be exceeded because it can cause liver damage. Nebulized albuterol (Proventil, Ventolin) may be taken to help with breathing. This medication helps open up the airways and may cause shaking of the hands and feet. A doctor may prescribe ribavirin (Rebetol) to help kill the virus and reduce infection. Ribavirin disrupts the production of proteins necessary for viral DNA replication. Some children and very sick adults may need a machine to help the lungs breathe.

Summer camps locked in Volleyball, ‘POJO Maker’ kicks things off in June Once again, summer camps and fitness programs as well as a gathering for “elite” athletes are on the horizon for Springtown youth.

POJO Maker New this year is a “speed and strength camp,” the 2014 POJO Maker.

It will run for six weeks from June 2-July 17 with the week of July 4 off.

The traditional camp slate begins with volleyball for grades 4-9. Slated for the SHS gym, the fee is $50. It runs June 2-5.

Two camps are scheduled for June 9-12.

Eagle Mountain DAR awards banquet slated

SISD ground and facilities overseen

by Rutherford n SISD, FROM PAGE 3A

The Eagle Mountain Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution will present seven national awards to citizens within the Eagle Mountain area at its Community Awards Banquet to be held at 6 p.m.

Saturday, May 17, at Vance Godbey’s Restaurant, located at 8601 Jacksboro Highway in Lakeside.

Awards to be presented include the DAR Community Service Award, the DAR Youth Citizenship Medal, the DAR Historic Preservation Award, DAR Outstanding Cadet Award and DAR Distinguished Citizen Medal. Each award is given for excellence in various areas of service to the recipient’s community, state and nation.

Special guest speaker for the evening will be Captain Gilbert J. Miller, U.S. Navy,

Commanding Officer of the Naval Air Station Fort Worth, Joint Reserve Base.

The banquet is open to the public.

Tickets are $20 each for adults and $10 each for children 3-10 years.

Reservations must be made by May 10. Include name, address and phone number with each reservation. Make checks payable to Eagle Mountain DAR, and mail to Rachel Hinckley, 11420 Liberty School Rd, Azle, TX 76020. Dress is business casual.

The National Society Daughters of the American Revolution is a non-profit, non-political women’s service organization, founded in 1890 and incorporated by an act of Congress, based in Washington, DC. For further information, contact emdar1776@gmail.com.

He said he often gets calls in two specific areas when he and his crew are taking care of the district’s grounds.

One is how fast mowers can move and still do a proper job.

Rutherford said people call and tell him that the mowers are going too fast.

He noted that the machines are made to move that quickly. “They can mow four to six acres per hour.”

Another concern he hears about is that the old Porcupine Stadium football field is being watered during these times of drought.

Rutherford said that that water comes from a well and is not held to the same drought restrictions as municipal systems.

He added that the school district mainly gets its water from Walnut Creek Special Utility District and from the city.

During the summer, water is preserved by cutting off water fountains and sinks at some facilities.

In the heat of the summer, watering becomes restrictive.

“That ground can get hard if we don’t water. It’s a safety issue,” Rutherford said.

The stadium complex has its own worker, he said. Despite the fake turf, there is still 40 acres to tend to, Rutherford said.

He added that visiting teams have complimented him on how nice the baseball and softball diamonds look.

All SISD facilities are considered relatively new, he said.

“They are top notch,” Rutherford said.

“There is one main guy for each facility,” he added.

Recently, work has been done at the food services building.

A roof has been added as well as a new facade and some gutters.

“It got a facelift,” Rutherford said.

The director said he tries to be cautious with his part of the $3 million grounds and facilities budget.

“I’m proud to take care of them,” he said.

Check your vehicle this summer

T

xDOT says Texas’ total miles driven in 2012 was a whopping 240.616 billion.

That was up 1.34 percent from the previous

year.

A more distressing stat is that 3,399 people died on Texas roads in 2012 and 230,506 more were injured.

That means someone is killed on a Texas road every 2 hours 35 minutes.

A person is injured every 2 minutes, 17 seconds.

And a crash is reported every 75 seconds.

These sobering stats illustrate the importance of keeping vehicles in tiptop shape.

April is National Car Care Month and the Universal Technical InstituteDallas/Fort Worth has five suggestions to keep your vehicle in good shape.

1. Check the essentials.

That means fluids – oil, brake, transmission, and windshield wiper. Visually inspect hoses and belts. Examine interior and exterior lights. And check your battery for corrosion.

2. Inspect your tires.

Check all air pressures; don’t forget

the spare. Examine for bald spots or bulges as well as proper inflation.

3. Check air-conditioning.

If it’s not cooling, find a professional to look at it. It can get dangerously hot in Texas.

4. Clean your vehicle inside and out.

Removing dust and haze increases visibility, especially at night. Boxes and books not only decrease gas mileage but can become dangerous projectiles during an accident.

5. Inspect your brakes.

Have a pro look at your linings, rotors, and drums.

How old is old enough? or Dance for mental health!

T

he Fort Worth Zoo used to say for kids from 2 to 92. Well, that’s our motto at the Springtown Area Senior Center, too, except we also have those older and younger. All ages are welcome.

There is no age limit to come to dance – just come and have a good time. There are people who are at the Senior Center every Thursday night, others who are there every Saturday night, and some are there every time the door opens. This gets to be one big happy family. You are missed when you are not there. Please come join us or just visit, we need you.

We’ve always known that dancing is one of the best exercises you can get, but recent studies also show that frequent dancing apparently makes us smarter. A major study added to the growing evidence that stimulating one's mind can ward off Alzheimer's disease and other dementia, much as

Just how old do you think we are?

The dances at the Senior Center are for all ages – young and old. The “Senior” in the name is just the name of the place. That’s because Senior Citizens are the ones who worked to build the building so that we might have a nice place to hold events in Springtown. They had pancake suppers, spaghetti dinners, fish fries and other things to raise the money. They never had a grant or any government funds – just a lot of hard work, and sweat, and tears. Most of us were not around when they began this, but we are the

City of West receives additional $4.8 million grant

G

ov. Rick Perry on April 16 granted a request by the city of West for an additional $4.8 million in disaster grant assistance for recovery efforts in the West fertilizer plant explosion that occurred April 17, 2013.

Fifteen people were killed in the explosion, more than 160 were injured and more than 150 buildings were reported damaged or destroyed in the town of about 2,800 people, 20 miles north of Waco. Perry’s office said the grant is to help the city of West repair and rebuild infrastructure damaged or destroyed by the blast and assist with other important projects in the affected area.

“Last year’s tragedy touched the lives of every member of the West community and touched the hearts of all Texans,” Gov. Perry said.

Law enforcement personnel are working with the occupants of the ranch to take all reasonable actions to assist with their departure of the property, to preserve the property, and to successfully execute the court order, the DPS reported, adding that continuing activities on the property will include obtaining a court-ordered inventory of real property and protecting the remaining assets.

11A

Relay team disqualified, but 17 advancing to regional meet

By MARK K. CAMPBELL Thrilling then stunning.

Then a bummer.

The final race at the Area track meet, conducted at Porcupine Stadium April 16, was all that and more.

The gathering of the top four finishers in all varsity events from districts 5-3A and 6-3A competed for regional berths; the top four advanced to the Region I event in Lubbock.

Springtown athletes turned in several fine performances.

With the sun waning, the fi-

nal two races arrived, the 4x400 relay.

The Lady Porcupine quartet – Kristine Camacho, Shelbi Meek, Brandy Branson, and newcomer Kaitlyn Hill – crossed the line fourth and punched its ticket to Lubbock.

That left the boys race to complete the meet.

With officials closely monitoring the oval, the gun was fired.

Soon, just like with the District 6-3A meet back on April 10, it was a two-team race –

Springtown and Kennedale.

And, just like that first contest, Porcupine Dillon Springfield almost made up the difference, just missing nipping the Wildcat anchor at the wire.

Frustrated, the junior tossed down his baton. The official, arms upraised, immediately flagged the Porcupines.

Despite coach Brad Legan’s vehement protests on the track and later in a written missive, the disqualification was upheld.

Even though SHS had the second fastest 4x400 team in

the Area, the foursome’s season ended.

“I filed an official written protest,” Legan said. “The ruling was upheld by the Area meet committee.”

Some events went as expected.

Porcupine Benji Brokenshire continued to dominate; he won the gold in pole vaulting, clearing 14 feet.

Teammate Hunter Robinson, who topped 12-6, will join Brokenshire in Lubbock.

Springfield remained the Area’s top hurdler. He won the 110 and 300 races.

A solid discus thrower, Kolyn Waldrop needed a mighty hurl on his last effort to claim the final Region I berth at 142 feet.

The Lady Porcupines sprint relay team joined the 4x400 in qualifying.

Triple jumper Savannah Sutton finished with a silver medal as did long jumper Brooke Dauenhauer.

Harley Williams qualified in both distance races.

Coach Hannah Adams said, “We have very competitive times and marks, so it should Brandy Branson (left) has passed the baton to Kaitlyn be a fun two days in Lubbock.” Hill in the 4x400 relay.

Baseball Porcupines headed to postseason SHS goes 5-0 at home in 6-3A

Deja vu all over again.

Once again, the Lady Porcupines will face the Lady Hawks of Iowa Park in the postseason.

Springtown squared off against the 5-3A winner Wednesday, April 23 in Graham.

The Lady Porcupines finished the regular season with a romp over Fort Worth Diamond Hill-Jarvis.

That finale was a 23-0 blow out of the Lady Eagles.

Springtown coach Amy Balke said, “Everyone in the lineup hit.”

That included Kaitlyn Hill who bashed two inside-thepark home runs.

SHS’ ace Kelsey Huff got the shutout.

Last season, Iowa Park and Springtown played bi-district in Mineral Wells.

A decided underdog, the Lady Porcupines rallied to tie before losing late.

This year’s Lady Hawk squad reached the postseason 23-2 Karrah Cooper and the Lady Porcupines got a rematch and is ranked No. 10 in 3A. with Iowa Park for bi-district.

Flawless at home.

A perfect 5-0 record on the Springtown diamond was secured after the Porcupines beat Kennedale 3-2 April 22.

That victory locked down third place and a playoff berth for SHS. Springtown (13-12, 6-4) got a superior pitching performance from sophomore Jake Jordan.

Meanwhile the Porcupines got on the board when Chance Nelson squeezed home a run early.

Later, two more scored on hits by Ryan Neal, Zach Lund, and Ryan Hester.

The Wildcats got close with two runs in the final inning, but SHS sealed the deal.

A big play early, coach Stan Gideon said, was Josh White throwing out a runner at home from his center field position.

The 6-3A finale win gave Springtown a 4-1 record in the second round of district play.

The Porcupines’ playoff foe is Graham. Site and dates are Tyler Hickman and the Porcupines went 5-0 at home in district play this season.

We moviegoers are in the midst of a pair of fi lm trends right now (aside from the superhero glut).

One is the Young Adult craze.

The Twilight movies kicked off YA in theaters and The Hunger Games series has catapulted it into the stratosphere.

Still, a slew of YA hopefuls crashed and burned in auditoriums (like Ender’s Game [2013, Movie Man No. 1,060, a 6]).

The other trend making hay right now is the religious movie.

is cliché and so is the climax which really hurts; the town literally rallies around the brave Kinnear in his pulpit.

Heaven Is for Real also commits the major sin of revealing its best bits in the trailer. All of the substantial plot points are in the coming attraction.

The rating There’s some minor gore from a leg injury and an operation (tastefully done) on a boy.

But the PG is just fine.

Summing up Heaven Is for Real is a tick above recent releases of its ilk.

It’s not anything stupendous, but, for its genre, it’s better than most.
