Why cafe charges were dropped, butterﬂ y habitat revamp tucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services advised the health department that it could reinstate the license because of the expired executive order. But the attorney talked about the misdemeanor charges separately. He said the county attorneys could “exercise their discretion as they wish in the misdemeanor cases.” On Dec. 22, health department Environmental Health Manager Ted Talley told the county attorneys in an email that since the permits had been re-instated, “NKY Health is requesting that the criminal charges related to these two establishments be dropped.” On Dec. 23, the attorneys did just that. Grant County attorney Stephen Bates declined to comment. Boone County attorney Robert Neace told me that this type of misdemeanor can come with the penalty of a ﬁ ne between $100 and $500 or no more than 30 days in jail. But usually, Neace said he dismisses permit-related charges once the person or entity is in compliance. Neace saw Hayhoe getting his permit back when the order expired as compliance, so he dismissed the case, he said. “It is always the goal of the health department to obtain compliance with safety laws – and compliance can either be voluntary or ordered by a Court or the Kentucky Department for Public of Health,” said health department spokesperson Robin Feltner in an emailed statement. “Once compliance with the safety law is achieved, then the role of the local health department is concluded because the goal of protection of the public has been achieved.”

This is an installment of reporter Julia Fair’s series “By the way, NKY.” Here, you’ll ﬁ nd what’s going on in Northern Kentucky. If there’s something you think should be included, email reporter Julia Fair at jfair@enquirer.com By the way, here’s what’s going on in Northern Kentucky:

Health department asked attorneys to drop Beans Cafe misdemeanor Late last year, I — along with every other reporter in the region — wanted to fully explain to readers how and why businesses were being punished for not following COVID-19 safety measures enacted by Gov. Andy Beshear. On my desk, questions fi lled the sticky notes that my cat, George, likes to bat around. The Beans Cafe & Bakery case that got national attention, including from Fox News, spurred even more questions. Owner Richard Hayhoe lost his state food service license because he defi ed the governor’s ban on indoor dining. Then, he continued to serve food at his restaurants in Dry Ridge and Hebron. So, the Northern Kentucky Health Department asked the county attorneys to look into charging Hayhoe for operating without a food license. I didn’t understand why the attorneys suddenly dropped the charges in December. Hayhoe still served food without a license, so why was the issue now moot? So, I fi led a Kentucky Open Records Act Request with the county attorneys and the Northern Kentucky Health Department for emails and documentation related to the case. The county attorneys wouldn’t give me the documents, citing exemptions that say criminal investigative records maintained by county attorneys remain exempt from disclosure even after the case is closed. But the health department produced 168 pages of its own documents. I always make a timeline when I get a lot of documents. My notes showed that the health department asked the county attorneys to

drop the misdemeanor charges it had initiated. It did not mention how the department planned to hold Hayhoe accountable for serving food without a permit. The health department told me since the food permits had been reinstated, “there were no further legal issues” for

them to pursue because he was no longer operating without permits. But the restaurant had already committed the alleged misdemeanor. The emails showed me a little more about what took place the three days leading up to the dismissal of charges. On Dec. 21, an attorney with the Ken-

Attorney General to Cold Spring: Council broke law Julia Fair Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The city of Cold Spring violated state law in December when it held meetings to acquire the Disabled American Veterans property, according to a report from the Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron. The fi ve-page report is the latest development in the private vs. public land fi ght over the 30-acre plot in Cold Spring. In December, the Campbell County Board of Education launched the process to take the private land for public use for a new middle school. But the city wanted it for a private development to boost its tax base. After disagreements between the city and school board, the board’s attorney Jason Reed fi led the open meetings act complaint which slapped the city with four violations.

How to submit news

Kentucky open meetings and records laws give people access to public meetings and documents that can expose details behind government decisions. Without it, it would be nearly impossible to hold public offi cials accountable. The Cold Spring violations are related to two special meetings the city had — on Dec. 17 and Dec. 30 — to acquire the $6.5 million property on Alexandria Pike, which the Cincinnati-based developer AI. Neyer fi nanced. The report alleged the city broke the law when it ignored a citizen’s complaint about the violations, failed to provide “suffi cient notice” for two special meetings, and took action not on the agenda after an executive session. “We disagree with the decision and are seeking to appeal,” city attorney Brandon Voelker told The Enquirer in an See LAW, Page 2A

email. “We cited three direct opinions on point which the attorney general chose to disregard.” Voelker characterized the decision as “moot” because the city talked about the action during the public portion of the meeting. He added that the city discussed the DAV agreements and voted on matters related to the project during the public portion of its Jan. 25 meeting. Council violated the law on Dec. 17 when it came out of the executive session and voted to let the mayor and city attorney negotiate with the DAV to purchase the property. That vote was not on the agenda and it should’ve been, Cameron wrote in his decision. That acquisition hasn’t been a secret. The city notifi ed its residents about the meetings on its Facebook page, a tool that many Northern Kentucky cities use. Cameron argued the city should have provided “specifi c information” on how people could access the virtual meeting. There was no link or mention of the Facebook broadcast on the agendas. In previous virtual meeting agendas in 2020, the city did provide more specifi c information. For example, an agenda from July said people could attend the virtual meeting “by viewing the video conference at the city’s Facebook page” and provided a link. Enforcement measures for this type of violation are vague. The city council has 30 days to appeal the decision. If it doesn’t, the decision can be enforced by the Campbell County Circuit Court, according to state law. It does not specifi cally say how the court could enforce it.

Volunteers plan to rehab monarch butterfly habitat

Police were called to the warehouse at about 11:55 a.m. The Cincinnati Fire Department’s hazardous device unit was called out to the warehouse oﬀ U.S. 25. The all-clear was given at 2:48 p.m., police said.

ton County hatched a plan to revamp a monarch butterfl y habitat in a park in Covington, according to documents from the Kenton County Fiscal Court. The fi scal court partnered with Monarch Friends, a Kentucky non-profi t that works to re-populate monarch butterfl ies. The group will revamp three plots in Middleton-Mills Park in Covington into pollinator habitats. This summer, the group will pluck invasive plants from the ground, such as Callery pear. Beginning in November, it will plant common pink milkweed, prickly ash, pawpaw (reminds me of the Athens, Ohio, annual pawpaw festival from when I went to Ohio University), and more. Next February, they will plant red clovers and the county will mow the areas in spring 2022. Then, the group will count how many monarchs visit the area. The partnership began on Jan. 1 and will end in December 2022, with the potential of a 4-year renewal. The group is also maintaining 65 acres at the Independence Cemetery, 30 acres on Kentucky Route 17 near Fowler Creek Road in Independence, 12 acres at Gateway Community and Technical College in Boone County, and 2 acres in Memorial Park in Independence.

NKY grad facing charges in U.S. Capitol riot

Lexington residents Troy Dylan Williams, left, and Dalton Ray Crase, far right in the red hat, just before they enter the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. They were both charged federally for alleged participation in the riots. COURT RECORDS

Jessica Schmidt Fox19

A man with ties to the Tristate is facing federal charges related to the violent protest at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 that left several dead, including a Capitol police oﬃ cer. Dalton Ray Crase, 21, is currently facing several federal charges, including aiding and abetting and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds. Deekon Duvall says he is Crase’s brother and found that Crase’s arrest came as a complete surprise. “It was a huge shock,” Duvall said. “He’s never done anything to harm somebody. He’s a pretty nice, humble dude.” Court records show Crase admitted to FBI agents that he went into the Capitol building on Jan. 6 with a man named Troy Dylan Williams, 25. Crase said he and Williams took photos inside of the building but did not partake in any violence or vandalism. “At ﬁ rst, he was a very far distance

away. He wasn’t interacting, and then he went up into the steps, and then that’s where [he took] that picture that they have posted everywhere of him with the peace sign, smiling, with the offi cers behind,” Duvall said. According to Duvall, Crase grew up in Walton. Offi cials confi rmed that Crase attended Walton-Verona High School and graduated from there in 2018. Duvall says his brother does not have a criminal history and has never been violent. He thinks Crase was at the Capitol to express himself and got caught up in the moment. “Right after, he texted me, and he was

like, ‘Dude I don’t know what I just did. This is not good. Don’t like, keep it on the low. I feel like I’m going to get in big, big trouble for this,’” Duvall said. Court documents state Crase told the FBI he realizes he broke the law but said it did not register with him at the time. Duvall thinks the charges against his brother should be reduced or even dropped, but prosecutors believe the evidence says otherwise. “It was just somebody who was supporting their views and made a mistake,” Duvall said. “He has no, nothing on his record. He’s perfectly clean, so they have no reason to severely punish

him.” Crase was expected back in court Friday, Feb. 5. It was not clear what his sentence could be if he is convicted, when this article was originally published. Troy Williams, who investigators said was with Crase at the Capitol, is also facing federal charges. Crase’s defense attorney could not be reached for comment.

New NKU provost is an FBI history scholar Madeline Mitchell Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Northern Kentucky University will welcome Matt Cecil, a media historian with 20 years of academic experience, as the university’s new provost in July, offi cials announced Feb. 3. NKU serves over 16,000 students and employs more than 2,000 faculty and staff , according to the university’s website. The provost oversees the university’s academic programs and support services. Cecil currently serves as interim provost and executive vice president for academic aff airs at Minnesota State University, Mankato.

Cris Collinsworth pokes pre-birthday fun at himself Dave Clark Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Former Cincinnati Bengals receiver Cris Collinsworth recently had a little fun at his own expense, sharing a great video on Twitter of an interview he did with Pro Football Hall of Famer and former Pittsburgh Steelers great Lynn Swann at the Pro Bowl in Hawaii after Collinsworth’s outstanding rookie season with the Bengals: http://bit.ly/3alEEHH Collinsworth, a long-time Fort Thomas resident born in Dayton, Ohio, turned 62 on Jan. 26.

Collinsworth’s 62nd birthday, in fact, was the 20th anniversary of Swann’s election to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Earlier in January on Twitter, Collinsworth called it “another humbling moment” when none of the contestants could come up with the correct answer to a clue about former Cincinnati Reds play-by-play broadcaster Al Michaels’ co-host on NBC’s “Sunday Night Football.” Collinsworth, who played for the Bengals from 1981 to 1988, joined Michaels on “Sunday Night Football” in 2009.

State University, a master’s from Minnesota State University and earned his doctor of philosophy in mass communication from the University of Iowa. Cecil’s studies focus on FBI history during the J. Edgar Hoover era and he has authored numerous articles and three books on the topic. “We are very excited to welcome Matt to the NKU community. He has a distinguished track record of academic accomplishments and administrative eff ectiveness, and his strong communication and collaboration skills, and passion for student success will serve us well,” NKU President Ashish Vaidya said. “We look forward to the innovative ways he will champion student success and regional engagement.” Cecil will take over as NKU’s provost and executive vice president for academic aff airs on July 1, offi cials said. Ande Durojaiye, who currently serves in this role, will step down on June 30.

VIEWPOINTS

Insurrectionists could be in more trouble than presumed Your Turn Michael Mannheimer Guest columnist

Some of those who engaged in the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 may have done more than simply commit a plethora of criminal oﬀ enses. They may have violated the U.S. Constitution. We typically think that only the government itself, not private citizens, can violate the Constitution. However, tucked into Article I, section 6, there is a provision designed speciﬁ cally to prevent events like the Jan. 6 insurrection. That section provides that U.S. senators and representatives are “privileged from Arrest during their Attendance” in Congress, unless they are being arrested for “Treason, Felony (or) Breach of the Peace.” In essence, this protects federal legislators from arrest while actually in a session of Congress unless they have committed a crime. And it was designed precisely to protect legislators from intimidation, harassment and violence by the president and his loyalists. As a 2017 Congressional Research Service report noted, this provision was copied from the English Bill of Rights of 1689 and “has deep roots in the historic struggles between King and Parliament.” The history of England was marked by centuries of attempts by Parliament, the legislative branch, to assert authority against the claims of the monarch to absolute power. The inclusion of this provision in their 1689 Bill of Rights represented a landmark protection from the crown for members of Parliament. The provision was added to our own

Constitution to similarly protect legislators from harassment or intimidation by the executive branch of government. The provision furthers our constitutional design of separation of powers by preventing executive intrusion into or disruption of the legislative process. It protects the very core of that process by preventing forcible physical removal of individual legislators when actually in legislative session. Given this history, any insurrectionists who had the intent to capture U.S. senators and representatives, and it appears that there may have been some who did, acted in direct violation of this constitutional provision. The Jan. 6 insurrection was, in essence, an attack by the executive branch on the legislative. Congress was performing its constitutional duty in counting the electoral votes from the 2020 election; the president, the loser of that election, did everything in his power to disrupt or halt that process. Even if not acting under speciﬁ c orders from the president, the insurrectionists believed that they were doing his bidding in preventing the legislature from performing its duty. Regardless of whether the president intended for his followers to disrupt the legislative process or was merely grossly indiﬀ erent to the risk that they would, the core concern of Article I, section 6 – preventing violent intrusions into the legislative process by the executive and his minions – is implicated here. One might think that private citizens could not violate this constitutional provision because only the government can make an “arrest.” Not so. At the time of the founding (and even, to a more limited extent, in some places today), private citizens were authorized to make arrests.

“Justice of the Peace” manuals in use around the same time the Constitution was ratifi ed – essentially guides for constables and justices of the peace for enforcing the law – uniformly permitted arrests by civilians. The framers and ratifi ers of the Constitution were undoubtedly aware of this when they granted members of Congress a limited protection from “arrest.” Some of the insurrectionists, too, were familiar with the traditional arrest power of civilians; news reports indicate that at least one member of the mob expressly stated that they were there “executing (a) citizen’s arrest.” One might also argue that any insurrectionists who had the intent to “arrest” members of Congress were doing so because they believed those members had committed, in the words of Article I, section 6, “treason” or “felony.” Again, a member of the mob reportedly said that they had “probable cause for acts of treason (and) election fraud.” It is highly doubtful, however, that that language covers mere subjective belief, no matter how delusional, that a member of Congress has committed a crime. Rather, the carve-out for “Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace” must naturally bring with it the requirement that such an arrest actually be based on probable cause to believe a member of Congress had committed a crime. Obviously, that is not the case here. Even if some of the insurrectionists violated the Constitution, can they be specifi cally prosecuted for doing so? The answer is yes, because of a statute Congress passed over a century ago to protect the exercise of constitutional rights. Title 18 U.S.C. section 241 makes it a crime for two or more people to conspire to deprive

someone “of any right or privilege secured to him (or her) by the Constitution.” Prosecutionsare rare and typically involve conspiracies to deprive individuals of rights secured by the Bill of Rights and the Fourteenth Amendment – free speech, free exercise of religion, equal protection of the laws, and so forth. But notice that the protection for federal legislators in Article I, section 6 is couched as a “privilege from Arrest.” This protection for senators and representatives is thus, as section 241 puts it, a “right or privilege secured to (them) by the Constitution.” And the fact that the insurrection failed is no bar to prosecution, for the statute forbids conspiracies to deprive someone of a constitutional right. One might resist this extraordinary and unprecedented use of a statute designed primarily to protect the constitutional rights of ordinary Americans, not the special prerogatives of members of Congress. This is particularly so when the insurrectionists are obviously guilty of so many other crimes. However, the events of Jan. 6 were themselves extraordinary and unprecedented. None of the other crimes with which the insurrectionists might be charged, not even attempt to kidnap or kill members of Congress, captures so neatly what occurred: an attempt by loyalists of the Chief Executive, on his behalf and with his tacit blessing, to do violence to members of the legislative branch in order to subvert the democratic process. Considering the historical background of Article I, section 6, I can think of few better ways to vindicate that provision than a prosecution under section 241.

Coﬀ ee cake: ‘She called it blueberry boy bait. You can guess why’ Blueberry coffee cake (aka blueberry boy bait)

Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld Guest columnist

Adapted slightly from Once Upon a Chef site.

Yesterday, I went to the grocery with a list. All resolve left me when I spied a display of fresh, huge, beautiful blueberries in the produce section. Not on my list, but on sale! Impulse buying? Yes, and no regrets. Especially on a snowy day with thoughts of a warm fi re, a piece of fresh-baked blueberry coff ee cake accompanied by a mug of steaming tea. Sound good to you? Then you’ll enjoy making this moist and pretty blueberry coff ee cake known as blueberry boy bait. The story goes that a young girl baked it way back in the ‘50s for a baking contest. She called it blueberry boy bait. You can guess why. It’s still a popular coff ee cake today. With Valentine’s Day coming up, this coff ee cake would be a memorable “gift without ribbons” for that special someone. For those of you craving chocolate to celebrate, try the easy chocolate caramel fondue. One more thing: during this pandemic, think of those needing a lift. A funny Valentine card, call or treat will bring a smile, and a grateful spirit.

I upped the vanilla since I didn’t have lemon zest. Ingredients Streusel ⁄ 3 cup packed brown sugar, light or dark

⁄ 2 cup flour

1 1⁄ 4teaspoons cinnamon ⁄ 4 teaspoon salt

4 tablespoons butter, cold, diced small

This blueberry coffee cake recipe has been popular since the 1950s.

Cake

PHOTOS BY RITA HEIKENFELD/FOR THE ENQUIRER

2 cups flour 2 teaspoons baking powder ⁄ 4 teaspoon salt

⁄ 2 cup butter, softened

⁄ 4 cup sugar

I love you chocolate caramel fondue Easy peasy. Let little ones help. Ingredients

2 large eggs 1 tablespoon vanilla or 1 teaspoon lemon zest and 1 1⁄ 2 teaspoons vanilla ⁄ 2 cup milk

14 oz can sweetened condensed milk 12 oz jar caramel topping

2 cups fresh blueberries (or frozen, not defrosted)

1 1⁄ 2 to 2 cups semi or bittersweet chocolate, chopped or good quality morsels

Instructions

Dippers: marshmallows, strawberries, banana slices, cake cubes or whatever! Instructions Put milk, topping and chocolate into nonstick pan over low heat. Whisk until melted and smooth. Serve In bowl, small slow cooker or individual ramekins, surrounded by dippers. Rewarm gently in microwave.

Whisk everything but butter together. Add butter and use ﬁ ngers to mix until crumbly. Preheat oven to 375. Butter or spray 9” pan. Whisk flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.

This cake is perfect for a winter day with a cup of tea.

Add eggs one at a time, beating well. Add vanilla (and zest, if using).

Bake 40 to 45 minutes, until golden and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Mine took about 40. Don’t overbake.

Beat butter and sugar on medium speed until creamy.

Streusel

Cake

Dust berries with a bit of flour to keep from sinking during baking.

Add flour mixture, alternating with milk, on low to combine. Add berries and fold in gently. Don’t over mix. Spread into pan. Sprinkle streusel evenly over batter. Start at outside edges so streusel doesn’t pile up in center with not enough to go around edges.

Freeze up to 3 months. Tips Whisk flour before measuring. This lightens flour up, giving more accurate measurement. Dust berries with tiny bit of flour to keep from sinking during baking.

SPORTS Highlands hires head football coach Former Lexington Catholic head football coach Bob Sphire will lead program James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

FORT THOMAS — Highlands’ long and winding road to a new head football coach has ended as Bob Sphire has been hired as the next varsity football coach at Highlands High School. A veteran of more than 40 years on the sidelines, Sphire has amassed more than 300 wins in his coaching career at the high school, college and indoor football levels and will oversee all aspects of the Bluebirds’ program. Sphire has spent the past 15 years coaching in Georgia after 15 years as head coach at

Bob Sphire. PROVIDED

Lexington Catholic High School in Kentucky. Sphire hails from Brandenburg, Kentucky, and his appreciation for Highlands football dates back decades. “Growing up in Kentucky and coach-

ing in this state for as long as I did, I know ﬁ rsthand that Highlands is one of the best schools, academically and athletically, in the commonwealth. Its tradition of excellence speaks for itself,” Sphire said. “The football program is built around champions and championships. And I can’t wait to work with the tremendous young men in the program.” Sphire replaces Brian Weinrich, who was head coach the previous seven seasons after spending more than 15 years as an assistant coach at Highlands, 12 as defensive coordinator. Weinrich has since become the defensive coordinator at Beechwood, the reigning 2A state champion. Highlands was 5-6 last year, losing to Covington Catholic in the second round of the playoﬀ s. Highlands had a fairly young roster, led by up-and-coming sophomore quarterback Charlie Noon.

Sphire’s hiring comes nearly a month after Highlands hired Eddie James for the job. James, the head coach at Franklin County High School in Frankfort, Kentucky, accepted the job on Jan. 9. He was introduced to Highlands supporters and players on Jan. 10 but withdrew his acceptance two days later and returned to Frankfort. Sphire is known to Kentucky prep football fans, as he started the football program at Lexington Catholic High School in 1992 and coached the team to a 2005 state championship. LexCath won 17-0 in Fort Thomas in the third round of the playoff s that year after knocking off Covington Catholic in the second round. Sphire also led North Gwinnett to runner-up fi nishes in the Georgia state playoff s in 2007 and 2013. One of his former players at Lexington Catholic, Wes See SPHIRE, Page 2B

See where Northern Kentucky wrestlers rank in the state James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Editor’s note: Information included reﬂ ects this article’s original publication date – Feb. 2. KentuckyWrestling.com recently updated its high school wrestling rankings in Kentucky for each weight class and for team standings. Reigning state champion Union County is ranked ﬁ rst in the state in both dual meet performance and tournament rankings. Ryle is second in both. Campbell County is seventh in duals and 11th in the tournament. Simon Kenton is eighth in duals and 15th in the tournament. Walton-Verona is ninth in duals but sixth in tournament scoring,

which is the format of the regional and state meets. Region 6, which houses every Northern Kentucky school but Grant County, is ranked second in projected scoring in the state meet to Region 1, which is where Union County resides. Northern Kentucky has three wrestlers ranked atop their weight class currently. Reigning state champion Spencer Moore, a senior at Walton-Verona, is ranked fi rst at 120. Ryle's Cole Thomas, also a returning state champion, is ranked fi rst at 126. Ryle's Noah Duke, a two-time regional champion and thirdplace at state last year, is ranked fi rst at 170. Currently, 21 NKY wrestlers are ranked in the top eight in their classes, which would project to a state medal.

The postseason is pushed back to late March this year. The 132-pound class looks particularly competitive right now, with four of the top 10 wrestlers in the state. Here are the current top four NKY wrestlers in each weight class in the rankings (some weights don’t have four locals ranked). The weights don’t necessarily match where a wrestler is currently competing or which weight they will compete in during the postseason. 106: 7. TJ Meyer (Walton-Verona), 14.

COMMUNITY NEWS He makes coffee and beautiful music COVINGTON, Ky. – It’s more than just a cup of coffee for Jonathan Wiseman, It’s a way of life. The 30-year-old Wiseman is a Barista at The Point Perk – a full-service coff ee shop that is both a highquality asset for the community and a life-changing employment opportunity for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. “I worked at a mom and pop coff ee shop at home,” said the North Carolina native, who now calls Clifton his home. “And I taught music to people with special needs at The Enrichment Center, so I thought working at The Point Perk was a natural fi t.” So Wiseman – a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, with a Music Degree – applied for the Barrista position last July. “It’s worked out perfectly,” he said. “I got a graduate assistantship in Music at the University of Cincinnati and work in their Jazz Department.” When not brewing – and serving The Point Perk’s menu which includes – Iced Americano as well as iced tea, latte, chai latte and mocha. Also, bagels, donuts, muffi ns, Danish, empanadas and coff ee, espresso, macchiato, cortado, cappuccino, matcha latte and hot chocolate grace the ever-expanding menu at The Point Perk. The Point Perk opened its doors in 2015 and is a business endeavor of the Covington-based, non-profi t – The Point/Arc. Operating hours are Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., and Saturdays, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Wiseman works Mondays through Thursdays – 7 am to 3:30 pm and then it’s off to school – or playing his trumpet with local bands like The Blue Wisp – or at local weddings. “We’d like to grow out hours and increase staff size, with the expansion of downtown Covington,” said Steve Roark, VP/Business Enterprises for The Point/ Arc. “We’re looking to grow in the community,” he said, “and we hope the community understands the benefi ts to our clients.” Roark notes that The Point/Arc tries to get clients to be part of the workforce. “They get paid, they pay taxes, they’re part of the community,” he said. “We envision longer hours and more employees.” The Point/Arc of Northern Kentucky provides services to individuals with intellectual/developments disabilities. Placing individuals into the community for the purpose of integrating those with assistance needs into a typical setting is the goal. Andy Furman, The Point/Arc

Mother daughter duo earn GED from Gateway Sherri Chambers, Gateway student, wants people to know that, “it is never too late to change your life. Don’t give up and love yourself enough to know you do matter and you are worth it.” Sherri’s inspiration comes from her mother, Tammy Underwood. Neither Sherri nor her mother graduated from high school. In the spring of 2017, Tammy decided to go to Gateway and sign up for her GED courses through KY Skills U. “I watched her struggle a lot,” said Chambers. “I saw her in her high moments and saw her at her weakest. It was very hard; she had been out of school for 30 years, so she had to learn basically everything all over again.” But she persevered. After Tammy fi nished her GED, she signed up for nursing and is now an LPN at Dominion Senior Living in Florence, Ky. About a month after her mother graduated nursing school, Chambers went to Gateway and signed up for GED courses. “I was more nervous about letting myself down and fi nding excuses that I had found for 15 years as to why I would not complete this,” said Chambers. “But I made a promise and a commitment to myself that no matter what it took, I was going to do this.” Chambers had three kids in three diff erent sports, was working full time and taking her GED classes. She is now enrolled at Gateway and plans to apply for the nursing program. Learn more about KY Skills U and other programs at Gateway at gateway.kctcs.edu.

Owen Electric Cooperative encourages county/city governments to apply for funds available to help Kentuckians with overdue utility bills Owen Electric Cooperative is asking local governments to apply for a portion of the $38 million dollars that has been made available to help Kentuckians with overdue utility bills. The funding, announced by Governor Andy Beshear, is much needed relief for Kentuckians who have been hit hard by the fi nancial implications of COVID-19. “We care about our consumer-members and hope those who are struggling during this pandemic can gain access to these funds,” said Whitney Duvall, Owen Electric spokesperson. “Throughout this crisis, Owen Electric has encouraged those who have trouble paying their bill to contact us so we can help them fi nd assistance .” What: Local government can secure up to $200,000 in utility bill relief for residents in need. Applications are being accepted by the Department for Local Government. When: ASAP How: Step 1: Local Government Submit Application to Department for Local Government Step 2: If approved, local governments partner with a community action agency to assist with funding administration. To simplify the process and fulfi ll that need, DLG has partnered with Kentucky’s 15 Area Development Districts (ADD) to assist units of local government, local nonprofi t community service providers and eligible Kentuckians with their applications and administering funds. Who is eligible for relief: Kentuckians should contact their local government or ADD for more information on available funds in their area. Households are

Horizon Community Funds of Northern Kentucky reaches $32 million towards goal Horizon Community Funds of Northern Kentucky has reached $32 million in contributions raised, which highlights the signifi cant progress made by the organization since its inception in 2017. The organization grew its contributions by 67 percent in 2020 alone, and has granted more than $11.6 million to 239 nonprofi ts over the last three years. “This is a story of the true generosity of our community in Northern Kentucky,” said Horizon Community Funds President Nancy Grayson. “By joining together to create greater impact, $32 million speaks to how committed Northern Kentuckians are to lifting each other up to improve the quality of life for all.” The update shows the grantmaking public charity’s steady progress towards achieving its fi ve-year goal of $50 million in assets. The community foundation also raised a notable $2.1 million in 2020 for the Horizon NKY CoronaviGrayson rus Relief Fund, which continues to provide assistance to Northern Kentucky families and individuals most impacted by the pandemic crisis. “In our fi rst three full years as a community foundation, our donors’ generosity has helped us fi nancially support a wide range of charitable causes, from food and shelter supports, to life-saving prescriptions, to scholarships for low-income, fi rst-generation students, and so much more,” added Grayson. “There is a wide variety of ways for charitably-minded individuals to connect with the larger Northern Kentucky community, and we are honored to partner with those who wish to become involved in creating common good for our common wealth.” Donors looking to connect with Horizon Community Funds can get more information by contacting President Nancy Grayson at 859-757-1552 or ngrayson@horizonfunds.org.

Save some money this winter by preparing your household for cold weather. Thermostat: Test diff erent temperatures to fi nd out when it just begins to feel uncomfortably cool for each family member. Set the thermostat just one or two degrees above that temperature. Set your programmable thermostat to a cooler temperature when you’re not home. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, turning your thermostat back 10 or 15 degrees for eight hours can save around 10 percent per year on your heating and cooling bills. Also, you can turn down the temperature of your water heater to the warm setting, 120 degrees F, to save energy. Clothes and Blankets: Winter months are a great time for snuggling under blankets. Switch to a winter wardrobe for your casual Byrnes clothes. Get the most for your money on all your winter wear by purchasing quality fabrics that will last in classic styles. Cleaning: Replace furnace fi lters to strain out dust and impurities while improving air fl ow. Also dust your vents and radiators. Make sure furniture isn’t blocking air fl ow. Leaks: Check for drafts and air leaks. Stand by doors, windows, and electrical outlets on a cool day to see if you feel cooler air. There are many quick fi xes you could make, including weather stripping, caulking, or insulating. Consider switching to heavier curtains in the winter and keeping them drawn when the sun goes down. If you have a fi replace, make sure the damper is closed whenever a fi re isn’t burning. Other tips: Cooking at home can save you money on restaurants. Also, using your oven can provide the secondary benefi t of a pleasant warmth in the kitchen. However, if you’re heating something small, a microwave will use less energy to get the quick job done. If your ceiling fans have a directional switch, you can run the blades clockwise to distribute the warm air around the room. If you have a room you don’t use, you can seal it off by closing the vents, shutting the door, and blocking airfl ow at the base of the door.
