CITY — Grosse Pointe City is looking for its next city manager, but until it finds that person, a familiar face will be acting as the city’s top administrator. Stephen Poloni, who’s now the city manager of Grosse Pointe Shores, was named the interim city manager for Grosse Pointe City by a unanimous vote of the Grosse Pointe City Council during a meeting April 17. Poloni was appointed the Shores’ city manager in October 2020, but before that, he served as the public safety director for Poloni Grosse Pointe City from roughly the end of 2011 to January 2021. In 2016, Poloni also became the public safety director for Grosse Pointe Park, a position he held simultaneously with his City

FARMS — Those who follow the metro Detroit art scene are probably familiar with painter Jackie Rybinski, of Grosse Pointe Farms, whose work has been featured in shows organized by the Grosse Pointe Artists Association, Detroit Society of Women Painters and Sculptors and Detroit Artists Market, to name a few. She’s not the only artist in her family, though. Her son, Max Rybinski, also of Grosse Pointe Farms, crafts sculptural creatures out of metal. Mother and son are enjoying their first solo/duo show, “Heat & Light: Jackie & Max Rybinski,”

Hill’s Bronze Door to create platform dining space on Kercheval BY K. MICHELLE MORAN kmoran@candgnews.com

FARMS — Another Hill restaurant will be bringing outdoor dining into the street. The Bronze Door, at 123 Kercheval Ave., will be erecting a dining platform on the street in front of the restaurant using two on-street parking spaces for that purpose. The proposal was in front of the Grosse Pointe Farms City Council for site plan approval April 10. Bronze Door owner John Vicari said the new outdoor dining area will seat about 30 patrons. The former sidewalk-only outdoor dining area had room for about 24, he said. “We’re going to reconfigure the patio that was there” on the sidewalk, Vicari said. He added that this includes freeing up more of the sidewalk for pedestrians. This is something required by the city, to allow pedestrians to have continued access to the public sidewalk. “That will be very much of an improvement,” said City Councilman Neil Sroka,

noting that he has tried to push a stroller along that stretch of sidewalk and understands the challenges of getting through if it’s too narrow. City officials asked that Vicari use furniture and materials similar to what other Hill restaurants have used for their dining platforms. Furniture and the platform need to be removed and stored in the off-season. Because the dining platform will use two parking spaces, City Manager Shane Reeside said the restaurant will need to pay the city $240 per month to make up for lost parking meter revenue, even though one of the spaces has been labeled as a valet space for some time. This is the same requirement that has been imposed on other restaurants that have used on-street parking spaces for dining. Vicari said the restaurant hasn’t offered valet parking for some time now, so they don’t need a valet space anymore. The platform will be surrounded by a wrought-iron railing, and Vicari said they See BRONZE DOOR on page 15A

SRT responds to report of armed suspect on Lakepointe BY K. MICHELLE MORAN kmoran@candgnews.com

PARK — Residents of one Grosse Pointe Park neighborhood were asked to shelter in place as police investigated an alleged domestic violence incident involving a man who was said to have a gun Sunday morning. At around 6 a.m. April 16, Detective Sgt. Jeremy Pittman said, police were flagged down in the 1400 block of Lakepointe Street

after a 22-year-old Grosse Pointe Park woman said she had been assaulted by a 23-year-old Grosse Pointe Park man. The victim told police that the suspect, who was still in the home, had a gun. Police issued an online Nixle alert asking the public to avoid the area and advising nearby residents to stay inside their homes while police addressed the situation. “Out of an abundance of caution, we brought in our SRT and sent out a Nixle alert to keep the community safe,” Pittman said.

The Eastern Wayne Special Response Team, or SRT, is similar to a SWAT team. It includes members from across the Grosse Pointes and Harper Woods. Police ordered the suspect to exit the home, and Pittman said the suspect surrendered peacefully. Officers reportedly recovered a gun from inside the home. Pittman said the victim “did sustain non-life-threatening injuries” during the assault, but she didn’t seek medical attention.

The suspect, who was arrested, was still in police custody as of April 17. Pittman said the Park Public Safety Department was submitting criminal charges against the suspect to the Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office April 17. It will be up to the prosecutor to decide what charges, if any, the suspect could be facing. At press time, charges hadn’t yet been issued. Call Staff Writer K. Michelle Moran at (586) 498-1047.

Shores public safety officers honored for going above and beyond call of duty BY K. MICHELLE MORAN kmoran@candgnews.com

SHORES — From saving lives to confronting violent criminals, Grosse Pointe Shores Public Safety Department members had to draw from their vast reservoir of skills in medical, police and firefighting last year when responding to a range of calls for service. The most outstanding examples of their work in 2022 were honored during a presentation of awards in front of the Grosse Pointe Shores City Council Feb. 21. “The annual department awards ceremony is one of the best parts of my job,” Public Safety Director Kenneth Werenski said. “These awards are just a small sample of the hard work the public safety officers exhibited throughout 2022.”

PARK — Whether memories of your high school prom were happy, sad or nonexistent, you now have a chance to return to that time and make pleasant new memories while raising money for local women in need. The Grosse Pointe-based charity Phoemale (pronounced “female”) will be hosting an adult throwback prom fundraiser at 7 p.m. May 5 at the Tompkins Community Center at Windmill Pointe Park, 14920 Windmill Pointe Drive in Grosse Pointe Park. Attendees can don styles from any era — from a flapper dress to big hair and linebacker shoulder pads to a poodle skirt to bellbottoms, anything goes. Wrist corsages are optional, and bad fashion choices are welcome. Attendees don’t need to rock a periodic frock, however. As Kurt Cobain once sang, “Come as you are.” “If you want to wear jeans and a T-shirt, that’s fine,” Phoemale Vice President Beth Oates, of Grosse Pointe Park, said. “We just want everyone to come together to raise funds for an amazing cause.” Founded in 2016 by a group of friends from the Grosse Pointes, Phoemale pledges 100% of the money it raises to women who need a one-time assist. The name comes from a merger of “female” and “Phoenix,” since those aided by the charity are women rising from the ashes of trauma. Phoemale receives referrals from social services agencies, who nominate women they feel would benefit the most from Phoemale’s help. Women must be survivors of at least one of the following: human trafficking, domestic or sexual abuse, or homelessness. Phoemale meets a critical need in a woman’s life that isn’t covered by another agency, such as a laptop or a used car. “Phoemale has paid for cars and bus passes, new mufflers and refrigerators, among many other things,” Phoemale President Jenelle David, of Grosse Pointe City, said in a press release. “We always say, there are lots of charities that can provide food, clothing or shelter. But not many will pay off traffic tickets so a woman can get her driver’s license back or buy four new tires after a bad ex-boyfriend vandalized her car. That’s what we do.” Oates said that while many social service agencies have restricted funds — meaning they can only use their dollars for certain things — Phoemale doesn’t have the same limits. “We kind of fill those gaps that the agencies we work with just can’t,” Oates said. Since their inception, Oates estimated that Phoemale has helped more than 30 women in metro Detroit. Oates said the idea for this fundraiser started as talk among friends about something they could do as in-person socialization was returning. “Coming out of COVID and the pandemic … we as a group of friends talked about what fun an adult prom would be,” Oates said. Unlike a traditional prom, singles won’t feel out of place. Oates said they already have “quite a few” attendees who will be coming by themselves. Tickets cost $100 per person and include food, an open bar, a DJ and more. Because the date coincides with Cinco de Mayo, Oates said there will be a taco bar in addition to sliders and other teenage (and adult) favorites. “The things that you enjoyed in high school — we’ll have them there,” Oates said. Attendees will also have the option of having their prom photo taken by a professional photographer for an additional $15. Organizers hope to raise at least $25,000 from this event through ticket sales and sponsorships. Because space is limited, Oates said attendees are encouraged to purchase tickets in advance. However, if any tickets remain, she said they will be sold at the door. “I think it’s just going to be a really fun time,” Oates said. For tickets or sponsorship information, visit phoemale.org.

Sylvia Jacqueline (Graham) Doletzky-Wilkinson On January 21st, our Dear Mother was released from the bonds of this earth and welcomed into Heaven. Sylvia Jacqueline Wilkinson was predeceased by the love of her life, Colin Wilkinson. Miss Jackie, Aunt Jacqui, Mom, and Grandma will be missed. From the red clay of South Carolina as a child, arriving in Michigan as a teenager, Mom and her siblings were literally born and raised in a tar paper shack smack dab in the middle of the Bible Belt. Jacqui’s siblings are Janice, the late Betty, Theta, Hilda and Darryl. She is survived by 7 great grandchildren (and one on the way!) 10 grandchildren, 3 daughters through marriage (Anne Wilkinson-Burke, Victoria Birk Hill and Pamela Kelly) and her sons, Dan and Steve Doletzky. Jacqui was well known for dancing in the kitchen, balancing spoons on her nose with her grandkids and seeing to it that no one messed with her or hers! She was active at every church she ever belonged - Christ Church Grosse Pointe, Peace Lutheran, Ascension and many more. Mom’s love of Jesus and her old school, Southern ways always rose to the top. She was classy, stylish, beautiful, and had no problem getting dirt under her well manicured nails if the task at hand called for it. We will all miss her, but we know she is up in heaven, making sure that she and Colin get the best seat at the Lord’s table. Her life will be celebrated on April 22nd, at Christ Church Grosse Pointe with a service beginning at 11:00 A.M. Live stream available @ (https://christchurchgp.org/funeral)

RECORD STORE DAY CARRIES THE RIGHT TUNE BY MARIA ALLARD allard@candgnews.com

METRO DETROIT — Cue those turntables: It’s time to kick out the jams. On April 22, local independent record stores will open up shop for Record Store Day 2023. Record Store Day, held internationally, was launched in 2007 to give employees and customers the chance to gather and celebrate the independent record store culture. In addition, record companies release new music or re-release albums on vinyl not available elsewhere. That could include picture discs and LPs from bands no longer together. “Record Store Day started out when vinyl was making a comeback,” said Davey Taylor, who with wife Lisa Taylor owns Weirdsville Records at 61 Macomb Place in Mount Clemens. “It’s about helping the mom-and-pop shops. Sometimes you get a lot of new customers that have never been to the store or new people who just got a record player.” Back in February, a compilation of the music to be released April 22 — along with a list of participating stores — was posted at www.recordstoreday.com. Recordings from various artists — including John Lennon, P.M. Dawn, Paul McCartney, Stevie Nicks, the Black Keys and Van Halen — will be available in vinyl format. “It’s stuff from the ’80s, ’90s and 2000s that has never been on vinyl before. It’s the only day you’ll be able to get specific titles,”

Several local record store owners predict this year’s big seller will be Taylor Swift’s “Folklore: The Long Pond Studio Sessions.” “Anything Taylor Swift does will be popular,” said Henry Pardike, who manages UHF Records at 512 S. Washington Ave., in downtown Royal Oak. Pardike also predicts “Live With The BBC Philharmonic Orchestra” by The 1975 will be popular. “That’s one of the biggest pop bands right now,’ Pardike said. “A new Beach House EP is coming out and the Mars Volta has a reissue of an EP of theirs.” According to Pardike, Record Store Day was scaled down in 2020 and 2021 because of the COVID-19 pandemic, but it came back “to a normal session” in 2022. “It’s an extremely busy day, but it’s also a fun day,” Pardike said. “Many people are looking for very specific things.

Crime down overall in Woods, but vehicle theft saw spike in 2022 BY K. MICHELLE MORAN kmoran@candgnews.com

WOODS — Crime numbers were down overall from 2021 to 2022 in Grosse Pointe Woods, but the city did see increases in certain categories. These were among the findings of the 2022 annual Woods Public Safety Department report, which was shared with the Woods City Council during a meeting April 3. Public Safety Director John Kosanke said the department was “pleased to report” that crime fell overall by 5.5%, from 525 incidents in 2021 to 496 incidents in 2022. That

figure is the total of index crimes — considered to be the more serious offenses — and non-index crimes. “The main focus (of the department), of course, was to ensure the safety and wellbeing of the residents and businesses of the community by fighting crime,” Kosanke said. One of the biggest changes in the index crimes category was a spike in auto theft, from 17 reports in 2021 to 28 in 2022. Kosanke said eight of those vehicle thefts took place in the Ascension St. John Hospital parking lot. In addition, he said there were multiple thefts of Kia vehicles at the end of the year — a trend seen all over, not only in Grosse Pointe Woods, because these vehicles

proved to be easier to steal than other vehicles that have implemented more sophisticated theft deterrents. Burglaries and robberies saw slight increases. Burglaries rose from 11 incidents in 2021 to 14 in 2022, while robberies went from one in 2021 to four in 2022. Larcenies — always the most common index crimes — rose slightly, from 107 incidents in 2021 to 110 in 2022. While larcenies are trending up from the 2020 pandemic low of 73, they still haven’t reached pre-pandemic levels. According to five-year crime statistics in the report, there were 162 larcenies in 2018 and 145 in 2019. Most of these are larcenies from autos — and, in many cases, larcenies

from unlocked vehicles, Kosanke said. “I try to stress, this is a partnership between public safety and the community,” Kosanke said. “We need to lock our stuff.” Among the non-index crimes, fraud tops the list. Kosanke said several city employees have been the victim of identity theft and other fraud crimes. He said in recent years, crime has shifted from suspects entering the city to steal something to someone using a phone or computer to take money or valuables from another person. “Those are hard for us to investigate,” Kosanke said.

Collin Morikawa, Tony Finau commit to play PGA’s Rocket Mortgage Classic BY JONATHAN SZCZEPANIAK jszczepaniak@candgnews.com

DETROIT — Professional golf ’s best will be making their return to the Motor City. Following an unconventional, rain-filled weekend at the Masters in Augusta, Georgia, the Professional Golfers’ Association’s Rocket Mortgage Classic made a splash of its own, announcing early commitments for the midsummer tournament from June 27 to July 2. Two-time major champion Collin Morikawa, who is currently ranked 11th in the Official World Golf Ranking, will make his debut at the Rocket Mortgage Classic this year following a tie for 10th at the Masters. Morikawa, who has four top-10 results in 10 events this season, was the 2020 PGA Championship and 2021 British Open Championship winner, and he has five wins on the PGA Tour in his career. The Rocket Mortgage Classic has showcased the ability to attract high-profile stars in the past, including Patrick Cantlay, Phil Mickelson, Dustin Johnson, Jason Day and Bubba Watson, but it is looking to find solid ground with the game’s young stars. Bryson DeChambeau, the 2020 Rocket Mortgage Classic champion, was a huge commitment for the tournament when he pledged during his age-27 season, and Morikawa, 26, is a sign that the tournament might be turning a corner toward a continuous commitment of the PGA’s young guns. Other commitments include five-time PGA Tour winner and defending Rocket Mortgage Classic winner Tony Finau, who is currently ranked 14th in the Official World Golf Ranking, and Rocket Mortgage Ambassador and five-time PGA Tour winner Rickie Fowler. “We’re excited to welcome Collin to the Rocket Mortgage Classic for the first time, welcome Tony back to defend his title, and have Rickie join us again as he continues his terrific season,” Jason Langwell, executive director of the Rocket Mortgage Classic, stated in a press release. “This is just the beginning of what we expect to be another strong field.” In conjunction with the player commitments, the Rocket Mortgage Classic announced that tickets are on sale at RocketMortgageClassic.com. Prices start at $65 with daily grounds passes while LendingTree Lounge passes start at $110 and Club Ace passes start at $300. All children 15 and younger will receive free admission when accompanied by a ticketed adult (up to four kids per adult), and courtesy of Detroit Community Days, complimentary admission and parking will be provided for the First Tee-Greater Detroit Youth Clinic and AREA 313 Celebrity Scramble on Tuesday, June 27, and for the Delta Dental Pro-Am on Wednesday, June 28. “The excitement level is high as we get set to celebrate the fifth anniversary of this amazing event right here in the city of Detroit,” Langwell said. “We encourage fans to buy tickets early, as most reserved areas are likely to sell out.” Call Staff Writer Jonathan Szczepaniak at (586) 498-1090.

EXTRA Edible landscaping has more benefits than being delicious 10A/ GROSSE POINTE TIMES • APRIL 20, 2023

BY MARY GENSON mgenson@candgnews.com

E

arly spring is an important time to start planting seeds that will bud and bloom throughout the warmer months. Some local residents have decided to incorporate landscaping that is not only ornamental but also edible. Growing edible landscaping at home has several benefits, including its economic and environmental impacts. This kind of landscaping can be taken to various different levels and include a range of different plants. Rochester Hills resident and Sylvan Table Executive Chef Christopher Gadulka utilizes edible landscaping at work and at home. Sylvan Table in Sylvan Lake is a farm-to-table restaurant where they grow produce right outside of the dining area. Gadulka was immersed in the culture of edible landscaping on a trip to Switzerland, where he noticed that a majority of the “lawns” were actually community gardens where functional plants grew for people to harvest. Even the wildflowers they grew were edible. When he returned home, instead of growing traditional ornamental plants in his yard, Gadulka began planting edible plants such as marigolds, ostrich ferns and ramps. One of his favorite edible landscape examples is the dandelion. These plants are 100% edible, as long as they are not sprayed with any chemicals.

Environmental benefits

Because of global supply chain issues, there are many invasive species that have spread into Michigan. As a result, these invasive species take nutrients from the environment that Michigan-based plants would use to thrive, taking over that part of the environment and changing the soil culture. “The garlic mustard green right now is a huge invasive,” Gadulka said. “It is a great edible. It is similar in flavor to horseradish or wasabi, with a little bit of spice to it. It’s one of those (plants) that, if you have a little bit in your yard, you will never get rid of it, and the best thing to do is eat it.” Other edible invasive species Gadulka mentioned are purslane and autumn olive. By using a grass alternative such as thyme, residents can do their part in helping the environment by using less water and reducing carbon emissions by not lawnmowing. This practice doubles as an economic benefit by saving money on water and mowing equipment. These thyme lawns can be used as herbs and are beneficial in bringing bees and other pollinators back to the area.

Edible landscaping can also improve the nonedible landscaping in the area around it. “There are a number of edible plants, herbs and vegetables whose flowers are beneficial for different kinds of pollinators and good insects,” said David Lowenstein, a consumer horticulture extension educator for the Michigan State University Extension. “That can not only help the edible plants but any wildflowers or other ornamental plants you have by attracting natural predators.”

Economic benefits

By using edible landscaping, residents can save money all summer on produce. Instead of spending money at the store, they can step outside and harvest fruits and the vegetables that they want for dinner. Gadulka said dandelions are once again a prime example of edible landscaping’s economic benefits. They are known to grow plentifully, and they are free. By letting dandelions grow, residents can harvest them for salads, teas and more. Rick Rigutto, the farm manager at Sylvan Farm, shared the benefits from a busi-

Tips for edible landscaping at home

While the idea of incorporating edible landscaping may seem overwhelming to some residents, Rigutto said the best way to begin is by starting small and building from there. Gadulka suggested starting by creating a rain garden. This is a type of garden that has native perennials and shrubs planted in a depression on the ground in order to soak up and store stormwater runoff. Several edible flowers and plants can be planted in these rain gardens, including asparagus, rhubarb and strawberries. Lowenstein also expressed the importance of starting off small. He said there are many microgreens that are great, easy-togrow edible plants to start with. “Plant what you think you would like to eat, or what your neighbors or friends would like to eat,” Lowenstein said.

ness standpoint of keeping food production as close as possible to where it is eaten. “The closer that remains, the more dollars stay in the local community,” Rigutto said. “Working with your local farms within your region and in your state helps keep those dollars recirculating closer to home.”

Receiving the department’s highest honor, a director’s award, was Sgt. Jason Cook, who joined the department on Dec. 17, 2013, and was promoted to the rank of sergeant on Dec. 26, 2020. “This is the big dog award,” said Werenski, pointing out that it’s given to someone who “constantly exceeds the expectations of the job description.” Werenski said Cook was involved in three serious incidents where he “conducted himself admirably” last year. The first was in January 2022, when a suspect who fled from Grosse Pointe Shores officers after an attempted traffic stop found himself trapped on a dead-end road in St. Clair Shores and responded by shooting at police and trying to hit them with his vehicle in an effort to get away. Werenski said Cook “was forced to discharge his duty weapon to protect himself and fellow officers.” In a second incident, in Harper Woods Sept. 2, Cook and others on the Eastern Wayne Special Response Team responded to a home with a barricaded gunman who had already shot and killed two family members inside the home. The SRT is similar to a SWAT team and includes members from across the Grosse Pointes and Harper Woods. In a third incident, Cook and others with the SRT responded to a mutual aid call from Harper Woods in September 2022. In this incident, Werenski said the suspect

had shot and killed two individuals and set the house on fire. From his vantage point, Cook saw an opportunity to address the fire and grabbed a charged hose from the Harper Woods firetruck nearby, putting out the blaze through a window, which allowed other SRT members to enter the home. “He went above and beyond to do what he thought was best,” Werenski said of Cook’s actions. Cook also has multiple responsibilities in the department, including serving as the EMS coordinator, EMS instructor, SRT team medic and patrol supervisor of Platoon 3. Werenski said Cook has won two state EMS championships as well as departmental awards that include four unit commendations and a 2019 lifesaving honor. “He’s just got so much to give, and he’s here to give it,” Werenski said. Cook said he “felt good” about receiving this latest honor, which is essentially an officer of the year award. “I just give it 110% every time I come in,” Cook said. Cook and Lt. Tony Spina — who Werenski called “two of Grosse Pointe Shores’ most highly trained and valuable officers” — were honored with a department citation for their mutual aid response Sept. 2, 2022, to the barricaded gunman situation in Harper Woods. Like Cook, Spina is a member of the SRT. The suspect was found, still armed, in the basement, where officers negotiated with the suspect. Werenski said they used a distraction technique that allowed Cook to rush the suspect and wrestle the gun from him. See OFFICERS on page 13A

“When they went into the basement, they didn’t know where (the suspect) was,” Werenski said. “The patience they exhibited to end this peacefully (was remarkable). … It was very, very brave, what they did, and I’m very proud to work with them.” For their work on a medical run that included giving a man a tracheostomy to clear his airway, officers Paul Morang and Billy Howe III received a department unit commendation. “This patient was in critical condition,” Werenski said, adding that the actions of Howe and Morang “directly saved his life.” “Most ambulance services would have stabilized and transported (the patient), but they cleared his airway,” Werenski continued. “This is a service we pride ourselves on, and I’m very proud of them.” Sgt. Terry Brown and Sgt. Ryan Wilson were given a department certificate of merit for their work on what started out as an attempted traffic stop and ended in gunfire.

he fled into St. Clair Shores and the Grosse Pointe Shores officers terminated their pursuit. St. Clair Shores officers attempted to confront the driver after he drove down a dead-end street. Grosse Pointe Shores officers were on the scene to confirm that the driver was the same one they attempted to pull over. Werenski said his officers suddenly heard gunshots and a crash as the suspect is said to have fired at police and driven toward officers in an effort to escape. Brown and Wilson assisted St. Clair Shores officers in stopping and apprehending the suspect. Werenski said his officers “acted very, very bravely” as police and the suspect exchanged gunfire in this tense standoff, which eventually ended in the suspect surrendering. “These officers came into a really critical situation and acted admirably,” Werenski said. Shores Mayor Ted Kedzierski praised the officers on their honors. “That’s the extraordinary, exceptional service we expect in Grosse Pointe Shores,” Kedzierski said. City Councilman Donn Schroder also offered his commendations to the officers, noting “how hard (they) work” every day. Call Staff Writer K. Michelle Moran at (586) 498-1047. Mayor Pro Tem Vicki Granger — who chaired the meeting in the absence of Mayor Arthur Bryant — said the report shows that all the training that officers do “pays off ” by making the officers better at their jobs. City Councilman Kenneth Gafa lauded the department for being able to “operate so efficiently” while remaining effective. City Councilman Michael Koester said the Public Safety Department does “great work.” “Thank you for the work and service you provide to the community,” Koester told Kosanke.

flippers, people can’t buy multiple copies of anything.” Some music fans travel for hours to shop. “There are people that come down from Traverse City, Alpena and Sault Ste. Marie,” Pardike said. “Most people make a day of it.” Pardike believes vinyl LPs made a resurgence because “everyone loves music.” “People want the artifact,” he said. “They’re not just listening to the music on their phones. They look at the linear notes.” Some take the event so seriously, they line up hours before the stores open. That has been the case at Village Vinyl, located at 5972 Chicago Road in Warren. The store will be open from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. April 22 with lots of giveaways throughout the day. “We’re running 20% off selected items and 10% off everything in the store excluding the Record Store Day items. It’s a very exciting time. It generates interest. It generates business and lets people know that record stores still exist,” said Village Vinyl owner John Lehl, who expects to receive titles from the Ramones, Motörhead, The Cure and others for Saturday. “We’ve ordered from different vendors and different distributors. The big one this year is Taylor Swift,” Lehl said. “Every generation is buying records now, even little kids. Listening to a record is an experience. Rather than hitting a button, a lot of people that like vinyl and music can look at pictures and read linear notes.” Lehl has witnessed many performers become fashionable again based on how the music is getting out there. The 2018 film “Bohemian Rhapsody,” starring Rami Malek as Freddie Mercury, is a prime example. “When they put the Queen movie out, there was a lot of interest,” Lehl said. “With ‘Stranger Things,’ Kate Bush is selling again.” People also stock up on music when an artist dies, as was the case when fans mourned the death of guitar icon Jeff Beck in January. Vinyl Village, celebrating its six-year anniversary this month, has become a staple for rock ‘n’ rollers. “A lot of people come to this store for metal and punk,” said staff member Daniel Loines, but other genres of music have been

will also place barriers with flowers, gravel and reflective tape between diners and the roadway as a safety measure, in case a vehicle was to drive into the platform area. As he has done when other restaurants requested the use of on-street parking spaces for dining platforms, Dr. Edward Jeffries, who owns the Hill building at 100 Kercheval Ave., voiced his opposition to this proposal. Jeffries said clients and patrons of other businesses want convenient on-street parking close to wherever they’re going and if it isn’t available, they’ll just leave. “During the pandemic, we did everything we could to help restaurants survive … but that time has now passed,” Jeffries said. “I don’t think it’s fair to favor one group of businesses over (others).” Jeffries added that he felt there was “plenty of room on the sidewalk for dining outside,” as well as plenty of room inside the Bronze Door. If the council approved the Bronze Door’s request, he asked that they consider adding more on-street parking spaces on the Hill by getting rid of the loading zone in front of Morgan Stanley, which he said is no longer needed for that purpose. City Councilman Lev Wood said he’s seen commercial vehicles use the loading zone to deliver goods to various Hill businesses and said that there’s plenty of parking in the Hill’s municipal lot, noting that many adjacent restaurants have entrances that face the parking lot, along with their main Kercheval entrances. Mayor Louis Theros said the loading zone wasn’t part of the decision the council was making that evening. City Councilman Joe Ricci said he had concerns about the loss of two more onstreet parking spaces, whether the barriers and reflective tape would provide enough safety for diners in the street, and the length of the platform.

“There’s plenty of seating in your restaurant,” Ricci told Vicari. “I just don’t think it’s necessary.” Expressing a different sentiment than Ricci, City Councilman John Gillooly said that as long as the restaurant installed “good, firm barricades” to protect diners, it should be relatively safe. “I’m in favor of the project,” Gillooly said. “I think safety is key. … Keep up the good work. You maintain a good, clean establishment.” Vicari said he would do whatever the city needed for him to do, including with providing appropriately strong barriers to protect patrons from an out-of-control motorist on Kercheval. Farms resident and former Public Safety Director Daniel Jensen voiced support for the proposal and called the Bronze Door “the cornerstone of the Hill.” “I think it’s a great idea,” Jensen said. “I think it adds ambiance to the Hill.” The council voted 6-1 in favor of the site plan, with Ricci casting the vote against it. Approval came with several conditions, including reducing the width of the platform from 8 feet to 6 feet to be consistent with other Hill eateries that have these platforms, making sure that the dining platform is accessible to people who have disabilities, and providing the city with more detailed drawings showing what types of barriers will be used around the platform. Reeside said the final plan is subject to review by the Public Safety Department. Reeside said a one-way driveway that served the former bank next to the restaurant may be closed off when Kercheval is repaved this spring, which would add one on-street parking space on Kercheval. Vicari said work on the outdoor dining platform would likely start in mid-May, after roadwork on Kercheval is completed. Call Staff Writer K. Michelle Moran at (586) 498-1047.

at Grosse Pointe Congregational Church in Grosse Pointe Farms, in the church’s art gallery. The show opened April 7 and will be on display until May 14. “We called the show ‘Heat & Light’ because he uses heat when welding his sculptures, and a painter uses light,” Jackie Rybinski said. For the church, this exhibition is significant. “This is the first official Arts Ministry (show) since March 2020,” said Lori Zurvalec, of Grosse Pointe City, chair of the Grosse Pointe Congregational Church Arts Ministry Committee. “So, this is a very important exhibit. I’m just so excited.” Jackie and Max Rybinski were supposed to have this show in September 2020, Zurvalec said, but the COVID-19 pandemic kept that from happening. Then, in June 2021, the church’s basement — where the gallery is located — was destroyed when widespread flooding and sewage backups ravaged thousands of homes and businesses in the Grosse Pointes. Jackie Rybinski’s work in the show includes portraits, industrial scenes, Detroit streetscapes and scenes of Detroit from the view through her car window. She had a mini solo show at Detroit Artists Market on its Featured Artists wall. Until recently, Jackie Rybinski was a regular volunteer with the GPAA’s A Morning Out art and conversation project for seniors at The War Memorial. Although she has a fine arts degree with a specialization in ceramics, Jackie Rybinski turned her attention to painting about 20 years ago, first working in watercolor and then oil. In her most recent work, “I’m trying to

get away from actual representation and get into more … of an expressionist feel,” Jackie Rybinski said. Max Rybinski’s work consists of large and smaller sculptures of animals, mythical creatures and characters from movies and television, among others. His work can be displayed outdoors — many of his customers have used his works to decorate their yards and gardens — and it will develop a patina of rust unless it’s painted or given a protective coating first. “What he uses is just scrap metal, sheet metal, washers — whatever goes well with the creature,” Jackie Rybinski said.

feel that’s fitting, given his metro Detroit roots. A 2013 Grosse Pointe South High School graduate, Max Rybinski, 28, has been making sculptures since he learned welding at Golightly Career Technical Center in Detroit, which he attended while in high school. His welding instructor, Juan Whiting, was the one who realized that Max Rybinski had a natural creative gift. “His teacher said Max is a real artist,” Jackie Rybinski said. “And so we encouraged him.” That support included converting the family garage into a welding studio, complete with a fan and fireproofing. Max Rybinski said his paternal grandfather and great-grandfather — both metalworkers — inspired him to learn welding, a trade he practices at work as well as in his off hours as an artist. His mom said her younger son is “generous with his time.” When he was laid off for a period last year when the company he worked for closed, Max Rybinski volunteered for The Parade Company — which produces floats and organizes the Detroit

Thanksgiving Day Parade — where he made wheeled bases for the floats, earning The Parade Company’s Volunteer of the Year award. He’s happy to see the joy his work has brought to others. He said he made a unicorn for his barber’s daughter, who loved the sculpture so much that she redecorated her room for it and allowed her dad to sell her other toys. When a co-worker lost his pet tarantula, he asked Max Rybinski to sculpt one for his friend. “With the help of the sculpture I made, he felt much better,” Max Rybinski said. “That’s the power of art to change people’s lives,” Zurvalec commented. Jackie Rybinski’s older son, Leo, joined Grosse Pointe Symphony Orchestra musicians Nensi Bakiu and her mother, Anida Margariti, to play chamber music for an opening reception for “Heat & Light” April 16. Grosse Pointe Congregational Church is located at 240 Chalfonte Ave. in Grosse Pointe Farms. The gallery is open to the public Sunday afternoons and whenever there’s an activity at the church. Call the church at (313) 884-3075 for more information or to see when the gallery is open. Call Staff Writer K. Michelle Moran at (586) 498-1047.

directorship until he left both municipalities to take over the administrative reins in Grosse Pointe Shores, starting circa the end of January 2021. While acting as the interim city manager in the City, Poloni will remain the city manager in the Shores. “We put a high priority on trying to find someone who at least had familiarity with the city of Grosse Pointe, because we have a lot of projects going on,” said Grosse Pointe City Councilman Christopher Walsh, who’s also serving on the council subcommittee heading up the city manager search. Grosse Pointe City Mayor Sheila Tomkowiak and City Councilman Terence Thomas are also on the city manager search subcommittee. Grosse Pointe City Manager Pete Dame, who has served the city for the last 17 years, announced recently that he has taken a position as chief development officer of Portage, Michigan, which is his hometown. He’s moving back to help care for his aging parents. Dame was honored for his years of service by the Grosse Pointe City Council April 17. His last day with the City is April 20; he starts his new job in Portage April 24. Poloni is well known in the Pointes, where he has spent the majority of his career. He was the public safety director of Grosse Pointe Shores from 2004 to 2011; he had worked in the Shores Public Safety Department since January 1987. Prior to that, he spent several years working for the city of River Rouge as an administrator in the Clerk’s Office, a member of the Department of Public Works and a firefighter. During his tenure as Grosse Pointe Shores city manager, Poloni has frequently been praised by officials. Likewise, he earned kudos from officials in the City and Park for his work there. “Steve is very well received by the staff in the City,” Walsh said. “I think it will assist us in as smooth a transition as we can (have).” Walsh said Poloni already has a good relationship with Dame as well as the department heads in the City. “They’re such a great staff,” Poloni said. “I know everybody, obviously. I’ll just be there to assist them as I can.” Tomkowiak was among the City offi-

cials who welcomed Poloni’s return April 17. “Welcome back,” Grosse Pointe City Councilman Donald Parthum Jr. told him. During the April 17 meeting, the City Council also unanimously approved a contract with the Michigan Municipal League, which has executive search capabilities. Walsh said the MML was one of three search firms that the City considered. “We decided MML would be a good choice for the City,” Walsh said. Grosse Pointe Park used the MML when it was looking for a new city manager in 2016, after longtime city manager Dale Krajniak announced that he was retiring. In January, Krajniak became the finance director for Grosse Pointe Shores. As was the case in the Park, the City’s MML search facilitator will be Jeff Mueller, a Grosse Pointe Woods resident who formerly worked as a city manager in Lathrup Village and was an assistant city manager in Grosse Pointe Park early in his career. Walsh said it’s advantageous for them to have someone who’s familiar with the Pointes leading the search. At an April 5 Grosse Pointe City Council work session, Tomkowiak explained that the search firm will “guide us through the process” of finding a new, permanent city manager. “The key thing for us is to know what we’re looking for,” Tomkowiak said. Dame told City officials it would likely take at least four months for them to find a new city manager, since any candidate they might hire would need to give at least 30 days’ notice to their current municipality. Poloni said he’ll be working roughly 10hour days six days a week — working Monday through Saturday — to accommodate both roles. His contract in the City calls for him to work 20 hours per week there. It also states that he would be paid half of the salary of the current city manager; Poloni’s contract states that his annual salary would equate to $67,950. “The City Council in the Shores was gracious enough to put me on loan,” Poloni said. He said where he’s working at any particular time will depend on what’s going on in that community. Call Staff Writer K. Michelle Moran at (586) 498-1047.

Brighten your home with Exway Electric For more than 60 years, the Joseph family has been helping metro Detroiters find the perfect indoor or outdoor lighting fixture. The family-owned Exway Electric Co. — so named because it’s located on the Interstate-94 Service Drive/Harper Avenue in Harper Woods — was founded in 1961 and continues to provide the community with caring, knowledgeable customer service. Lisa Joseph Ruggirello and Jeffrey Joseph, who are cousins, are the third generation to carry on this tradition. “We pride ourselves on customer service and making sure every customer is satisfied, and if they aren’t, we try to fix it,” Ruggirello said. They have the latest fixtures, along with unique items that work better for older homes. “We have a lot of hard-to-find items, and we have a very well-trained staff,” Ruggirello said. They can make recommendations and tell you whether the fixture you’re considering will fit in your space. They even offer in-home consulta-

tions in the local area. They have fixtures you won’t find in the big box stores and can usually get replacement parts for them. “We try to have products that work with everybody’s budget, especially in today’s world,” Ruggirello said. In addition, they’re a full-service electric supply company with lightbulbs and everything you need to wire a home. While they don’t do installation, Exway staff can recommend licensed and insured electricians who are reliable and fair — people Ruggirello said they would hire for their own homes. Exway is also a great place to find wedding and housewarming gifts, with an array of beautiful home décor and serving items. The Exway electrical supply store is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays through Fridays and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturdays. The lighting showroom is open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays through Fridays and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturdays. Joseph said anyone who needs to visit the lighting showroom earlier in the morning can call and make an appointment so someone will be there to assist them. Exway Electric Co. is located at 20234 Harper Ave. in Harper Woods. For more information, call (313) 884-8994 or visit http:// exwayelectricsupply.com. 0077-2316

ST. CLAIR SHORES — At 7:15 a.m. on March 18, a report was made about a vehicle theft that happened in the 26000 block of Harmon Street between March 17 and March 18. Officers spoke with a 48-year-old man who said he asked his son, 23, why the garage door was open. When his son went to check, he saw that his vehicle was stolen and his father’s vehicle had its passenger side window broken out. The vehicle was last seen by the son at approximately 11:30 p.m. the previous night. A handgun was also in one of the compartments in the car. The son didn’t know who would steal the vehicle and the father said they lost the remote for the garage door, which could be how the suspects got in.

Officers spoke with a neighbor, a 42-year-old woman, who said she saw the garage door open at approximately 4:30 a.m. when she let her dog out. Later in the day, the son reportedly came back to the police station with videos provided by a neighbor.
