COMMUNITY CENTER EXPANSION Spring Updates
CONSTRUCTION UNDERWAY
The Community Center Expansion is in full swing. You can expect to see many trucks, fencing and changes to parking through the spring months. The construction crew is currently digging the new warm water therapy pool on the east of the building, erecting the elevator shaft on the north side of the building and moving dirt to make way for the extension and additional parking on the south side of the building.
Temporary walls have been built in the gymnasium for the new MAC Gym on the west side of the building and many windows have been covered for safety. Spring will bring additional closures and changes to the building, parking and flow of the Community Center. Follow the progress, keep informed of intermittent closures and changes in parking patterns by visiting www.westerville.org/centerexpansion.
FIND YOUR CLASS WHILE WE GROW We thank you for your patience while we build you a bigger, better Westerville Community Center. Expansion and growth can always have unexpected turns and twists, and expanding a 96,000 sq ft facility by an additional 44,000 sq ft is no exception. Through the spring months, areas of the Community Center will be closed intermittently, possibly leaving scheduled class locations in flux. Throughout the guide, you will notice that all class locations that may have been scheduled for the Community Center have been removed. This does not mean the class will not take place but may mean the location will change before the class begins to another location throughout the City. Locations could include the Recreation Program Center (64 E. Walnut St.), Westerville Senior Center (310 W. Main St.), Everal Barn at Heritage Park (60 N. Cleveland Ave.) or at various City buildings. But don’t worry, all location changes will be communicated via email to scheduled participants before the class begins. A running list of class locations and room closures will be available at www.westerville.org/parks. Have a question? A member of our friendly team would be happy to answer any questions at (614) 901-6500. You can also sign up for the City’s weekly e-newsletter at www.westerville. org. Expansion updates can be found at www.westerville.org/centerexpansion.
OVERFLOW PARKING AVAILABLE Overflow parking is available at the Westerville Sports Complex (325 N. Cleveland Ave.) and will continue through the spring months. A shuttle schedule will be posted at the Community Center and online at www.westerville.org/centerexpansion.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
With the Expansion moving indoors this spring, it is necessary to begin rolling closures of some spaces throughout the Community Center. This spring you can expect to see some locations on the south side of the building close for work to be completed on the exterior walls. Since these locations include rental space, birthday party rentals will no longer be taken for 2019. But don’t worry, you can still schedule a rental for your special party at one of our many parks.
WE ARE NO LONGER BOOKING BIRTHDAY PARTIES FOR 2019.
Closures through Expansion May Impact Programming
The Westerville Parks and Recreation team is committed to keeping you fully informed of all changes as schedules are confirmed. Throughout the Expansion, areas of the Community Center may need to close for construction. Here are some closures you can expect to see from April to October, to the best of our knowledge. SPROUTS ROOM - Your little ones will still be able to enjoy some fun while you work out. Please check www.westerville.org/parks for the scheduled alternate location for the Sprouts Room. BUCKEYE ROOMS - With the exterior wall construction underway, rentals will no longer be scheduled in Buckeye B or Buckeye C. Rentals may still take place throughout the many parks or facilities within the City. Call (614) 901-6515 for details. TEEN ROOM - With many rooms closing in the south hall, the Teen Room may have alternate hours. Please check www.westerville.org/parks. INDOOR PLAYGROUND - To make way for a new exterior wall construction, the indoor playground will need to close throughout spring and summer. With the warmer weather upon us, why not take advantage of the many outdoor playgrounds throughout the City. For a complete list of playgrounds visit www.westerville.org/ parksandtrails. GYMNASIUM - While the schedule is not finalized, staff has been working hard on alternate locations for open gym times that will include various Westerville Schools. A schedule will be available at www.westerville.org/parks when it becomes available. FITNESS AREA - The Fitness area will be scheduled to close for a very limited time for movement of some equipment to its new location in the expanded portion of the Community Center. Check www.westerville.org/parks for all closure information. TRACK - While the track will close intermittently throughout the expansion, why not plan to take your daily walk around one of the many trails throughout the City of Westerville. Maps of trail locations are available at the Community Center or you can find information at www.westerville.org/parksandtrails. INDOOR POOL - Since closure of the indoor pool will take place throughout the summer months, Highlands Park Aquatic Center hours will be expanded to include additional days from May to late September. If you are a Community Center pass holder, you may use HPAC for no additional charge through the 2019 summer season. Check www.westerville.org/hpac for all extended hours throughout the summer. 5

“We look forward to bringing together community members with the organizations and volunteers who are making a big difference in Westerville.” Attendees are invited to engage with City organizations as we celebrate achievements in Westerville over the past year. For more information, visit www.westerville.org.
“For several years, City Councilmembers and I have shared the goal of re-imagining the State of the Community to feature Westerville and our partners in a more pronounced manner,” said Westerville City Manager David Collinsworth.

COMMUNITY EVENTS 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, March 21 The Point at Otterbein University 60 Collegeview Rd.
Invest in Your Health Westerville Community Center Pass Updates Beginning March 1, Westerville Parks and Recreation is streamlining the means by which patrons can utilize the Westerville Community Center by reducing the seven pass options to one. The 1-Pass All Access pass replaces all other pass options, and offers better access and more options than the previous group of passes. Both monthly and daily passes are available and include access to the gymnasium, indoor pool and climbing wall, plus the track and fitness area for those ages 14 and up. The no-commitment monthly pass has no initiation fee and gives the pass holder the freedom to cancel at anytime and return when able. With the design of the new pass structure, a household pass has been included. If your family has three or more individuals residing at the same address, you can purchase a Household Pass. This will give everyone in your home access to enjoy the facility. Proof of residing is required for each member of the household being added to the pass. Registration with your local school district can be used for youth without a state issued ID. “The last rate adjustment to the pass structure was in 2007,” said Parks and Recreation Director, Randy Auler. “Over the past 12 years, the cost of business has continued to rise while we kept rates low. It is now necessary to adjust rates to keep up with inflation and to ensure we can maintain the facility to the high standards the community has come to expect.” The new pass rates follow. Below is a short list of answers to the most asked questions. Find more information and a complete list of frequently asked questions at www.westerville.org/centerpass. WHAT HAPPENS ON MARCH 1? Come March, nothing will immediately change for existing pass holders. Once your pass expires this year and is up for renewal, that is when you can transition to the new replacement pass. The simplified pass will give you access to the fitness area, track, gymnasium, indoor pool and climbing wall. There are no contracts or initiation fees. Prices for the pass are dependent on your age and family makeup and whether you are a resident or non-resident. Please note this monthly pass does not include specific classes or programs. WHAT AMENITIES DO I GET WITH THE NEW PASS? All pass holders have access to the entire facility which includes the indoor pool, gymnasiums and climbing wall during scheduled “open hours”. Those pass holders 14 years of age and older will also have access to the fitness area and track. IS THERE A MINIMUM TIME FRAME I MUST HAVE MY PASS BEFORE I CAN CANCEL? This is a no-commitment pass. Feel free to stop at any time; then come back and join us again when the time is right. CAN I CONTINUE TO RENEW MY CURRENT PASS INSTEAD OF SIGNING UP FOR THE NEW PASS? Only those who have a current expiration date of March 31 or earlier may renew their current pass but must do so before March 1.

CITY RECEIVES GLOBAL RECOGNITION
WESTERVILLE NAMED A GLOBAL TOP 7 INTELLIGENT COMMUNITY The City of Westerville was named a 2019 Top 7 Intelligent Community by the Intelligent Community Forum (ICF). The international announcement was made at Laval University in Quebec on Monday, Feb. 11. Westerville was one of only three cities from the United States to receive this prestigious distinction. Other recognized communities are: Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada Chicago, Illinois Hudson, Ohio Sarnia-Lambton County, Ontario, Canada Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia Taoyuan, Taiwan ICF members will now schedule a visit to all seven cities for an inperson evaluation of infrastructure, programs and partnerships that represent intelligent communities. Westerville expects its ICF visit this spring. The organization will then name a member of the Top 7 as the Intelligent Community of the Year at a global summit in New York City in June. As part of the announcement, Westerville was recognized for its history of embracing innovation. From its role in the Underground Railroad to becoming the home of WeConnect (the nation’s first municipally owned data center), The Point at Otterbein University and more. Learn what makes Westerville a Top 7 Intelligent Community at www.westerville.org. Westerville Chief Information Officer, Todd Jackson, attended the announcement in Quebec. “This is the first time a city in the U.S. has earned both the Smart21 and Top 7 designations with their first application,” said Jackson. “Overall, very few communities globally achieve both on their first attempt. We’re excited to be in the Top 7 class and look forward to hosting the ICF delegation when they come to see Westerville for themselves.” The City was named to ICF’s list of Smart21 Communities of 2019 in October. From there, staff worked closely with key community stakeholders like JP Morgan Chase, Central Ohio Primary Care (COPC), Lake Shore Cryotronics, Otterbein University, Westerville City Schools and the Westerville Public Library in the process to be named to the Top 7 list. Top 7 candidates are evaluated against the “ICF Method,” which is “the first conceptual framework for understanding all of the factors that determine a community’s competitiveness in the digital economy,” according to the organization’s website. Factors evaluated are broadband, knowledge workforce, innovation, digital equality, sustainability and advocacy. For more information on the Top 7 or the ICF, visit www.intelligentcommunity.org.

MILITARY BANNER PROGRAM HONORS
2019
WESTERVILLE SONS, DAUGHTERS
The City is preparing to unveil a program honoring the sons and daughters of Westerville who are serving or hold veteran status from the U.S. Armed Forces beginning in May. Through the Westerville Military Banner Program, the images of the City’s military heroes will be displayed on pole banners. Most banners will be concentrated in Uptown, though the program may expand to other areas of the City. The banners will be taken down and placed again in November for Veterans’ Day. “From the time-honored tradition of the Field of Heroes to First Responders Park, the Westerville community has become known for its commitment to supporting those who serve our country,” said Westerville City Manager Dave Collinsworth. “We feel this program will do well to complement the initiatives already in place.” Some residents called for the program to come to Westerville after seeing other communities celebrate the armed forces in this way. Westerville’s program is modeled after similar initiatives in cities in Ohio like Mentor, Stow and Munroe Falls. Applications for the program were available beginning Monday, Jan. 7 and must be received by Friday, March 1. The full-color, double-sided banners cost $130. Checks should be made payable to the Westerville Parks Foundation. Applicants must provide a high-resolution digital image or scan of their military member’s photo(s). High-resolution means it is at least 300 dots-per-inch (DPI) ensuring the photos contain enough detail for print quality purposes. After the banners are displayed in November, they will be taken down and available for pick-up by the applicant the first week of December. This program is offered on a first come, first served basis. The first priority will be given to Westerville residents (proof of residency will be required e.g. copy of utility bill, driver’s license). Second priority will extend to residents of the Westerville City School District (WCSD).

Investing in the Community Business Booms in Westerville When Westerville’s business community succeeds, the residential community wins. Shovels breaking ground on new buildings, companies expanding in and moving to the City are all indicators of a community with a healthy economy. Companies investing in Westerville bring with them jobs, talent and income tax, the City’s top source of revenue. That being said, let’s reflect on some of the business developments in the City and look ahead at what is to come. When faced with the option of leaving the City, Central Ohio Primary Care Physicians (COPC) chose to stay and expand its footprint in Westerville. The largest physician-led primary care provider in the country brought $15 million in payroll to the City when they moved their headquarters to Africa Progress is being made on the soon to open DHL Supply Road, but they didn’t stop there. They Chain’s new headquarters. soon opened an auxiliary service building next to their headquarters and are building an adjacent new lab facility expected to open in 2019. Then there is Mid-City Electric, a Columbus Region institution, which saw Westerville as an ideal place to unite their operations. The 58-year-old, family-owned company got its start in Franklinton, where administrative and warehouse operations were separated by a mile. The organization’s move to 937 Eastwind Dr. not only brought the space to house everyone under one roof but shortened employee commute times by nearly 20%. Looking ahead, 2019 will see the opening of DHL Supply Chain’s new headquarters at 360 Westar Pl., a $20 million investment. Built to support future growth, the company is building a four-story building in the City’s booming Westar Place. Find more stories about developments in the City at business.westerville.org.
All Mid-City Electric divisions are now housed in one building.

NEW RECYCLING CARTS COMING IN APRIL
L A R G E R , R O L L I N G “ TOT E R S ” H E L P W E S T E R V I L L E “ R E C YC L E R I G H T ” Spring is a time of renewal. Appropriately enough, it’s also the season during which new recycling carts will be delivered to City of Westerville households. The receptacles are equipped with wheels and a handle to make them easier-to-move. An attached lid secures items inside. At 65-gallons, the carts are expected to promote increased curbside recycling, supporting the City’s overall sustainability initiative. The City of Westerville encourages residents to use this new start as a time to refresh themselves on the rules of recycling. According to the Solid Waste Authority of Central Ohio (SWACO), approximately 70% of materials sent to the Franklin County landfill could have been recycled or composted. For items residents can’t or don’t compost or reuse, SWACO says there are five types of materials accepted for household recycling in Franklin County: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
Paper and cardboard (Remember to flatten!) Plastic bottles and jugs (Leave on the lids and labels.) Glass bottles and jars (All colors) Metal cans (Be sure to take off aerosol tips.) Cartons (Please rinse and then remove lids and straws.)
There’s one more thing to remember- be sure to keep items loose in your new recycling carts. No need to bag like-items. Get more important recycling tips from SWACO at www.recycleright.org. Interested in how recycling moves from Westerville to the SWACO plant? Visit www.westerville.org/tv for an informative video on the entire process.

Passion for Doing Good Powers Westerville Lineworkers
As spring weather settles in, meet the men and women behind the lines who work diligently to keep power running to Westerville homes. Every year on April 18, the City encourages residents to participate in “Thank a Line Worker Day,” by showing gratitude. There are plenty of reasons to be thankful and proud of these line workers. As the only municipally owned and operated suburban electric utility in Central Ohio, the Westerville Electric Division has served the community since 1898. Staffed 24-hours a day, seven days a week, this Division works tirelessly to provide outstanding customer service to Westerville’s 38,000 residents and more than 2,000 businesses. Westerville’s lineworkers’ good works extend far beyond City limits. In March 2018, they spent more than 725 hours helping to restore power to Rye, NY after a nor’easter tore through the state, causing serious damage. In October, a team of Westerville lineworkers ran into the heart of Florida to help restore power to cities impacted by Hurricane Irma. Back on the home front, the Division hosted an Open House, welcoming residents to experience just a taste of the lineworker’s life. They’ve saved kittens from trees and won top billings at the American Municipal Power’s local “Lineworker Rodeo.” Learn more about the men and women of the Westerville Electric Division at www.westerville.org/electric.
ASSESSING YOUR
Electrical Safety Risk AS A FAMILY
Planning to get in some deep cleaning this spring? While you are collecting clutter and sweeping corners, the Westerville Electric and Fire Divisions want you to keep an eye out for electrical safety risks in your home.
LIGHT BULBS Ensure all light sources in your home are utilizing bulbs of the appropriate wattage. A light bulb with a higher-than-recommended wattage can overheat and cause a fire.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recommends residents complete a home electrical safety inspection every six months. The following are a few examples of common electrical safety hazards. Why not get the family involved in identifying issues in your home by treating this like a scavenger hunt? (Children should look for, but not touch the safety hazards.)
ELECTRIC OUTLETS AND SWITCHES All outlets and switches should be cool to the touch. If you can feel heat, it could be an indication that they are connected to unsafe wiring. If you notice this problem, call a qualified electrician. APPLIANCES Be sure to unplug appliances when they are not in use. According to the Commission, appliances that are plugged in can cause a shock hazard (even when they are not in use).
May is Electrical Safety Month. Find a list of helpful electrical safety tips (including a link to the full U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Checklist) on the City’s website, www.westerville.org/electric.

National
EMS WEEK National Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Week is Sunday, May 19 - Saturday, May 25. Presented by the American College of Emergency Physicians, in partnership with the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs), the week is designated to recognize those who provide EMS to local communities. When a red, shiny Westerville Division of Fire (WFD) vehicle passes by with lights and sirens blaring, you take notice. Not only do their sights and sounds demand attention, but you know within those vehicles are men and women who have dedicated their careers to saving the lives of Westerville and Blendon Township residents. Most Westerville firefighters are also EMS responders. Fire protection and prevention are primary functions of WFD, so are emergency medical services (EMS). In fact, responding to EMS calls accounted for the majority of WFD’s activities in 2017. Want to show your appreciation for WFD? A small word of gratitude goes a long way. Here are some things you can do: Have the family write thank-you notes and send them to a Westerville Fire Station: Westerville Station 111: 400 W. Main St. Westerville Station 112: 727 E. Schrock Rd. Westerville Station 113: 355 N. Spring St. Get social! Tweet @WestervilleFire a message of thanks to warm the hearts of the City’s first responders in red. Find additional information about WFD’s contributions to the community at www.westerville.org/fire.

SIMPLE STEPS TO PREVENT SPRING INJURIES
Spring is a time of play in Westerville and with more than 600 acres of parkland and 44 miles of trails, there is certainly plenty of space to get outside and move. As the season heats up, the Westerville Division of Fire (WFD) encourages residents to stay safe with a few commonsense safety tips: Invest in Safety Pads for Bicycling and Skating This isn’t just advice for children, parents can set a powerful example by following suit. When out and about on bicycles, rollerblades and skates, WFD experts say it is imperative that residents wear protective padding. Helmets, knee and elbow pads can prevent serious injuries in the event of a mishap on the trails. Heading outside? Bring Your Water During the early spring days when the weather is still cool, it can be easy to trick yourself into leaving the water bottle at home. However, bringing the H20 along for the ride can help avoid dangerous conditions like dehydration and exhaustion. Beware of Grilling Bravado When the gray and brown of winter start to give way to green, many residents run straight to the grills. Before getting backyard culinary shows underway, even the most seasoned of grill masters should take a moment to run through their safety checklists. Be sure to never leave grills unattended and to follow the manufacturer’s recommendation for safe usage. Read more about the Westerville Division of Fire at www.westerville.org/fire.

MEET THE
“WARRIORS” OF WESTERVILLE PUBLIC SERVICE
The first week of May is National Public Works Week. During this time, the City would like to shine the spotlight on the Westerville Public Service Department. The department is key to maintaining City infrastructure by way of four critical divisions: STREET MAINTENANCE DIVISION The community’s “Road Warriors” are members of this division and tend to traffic signals, mark pavement and patch potholes. The Street Maintenance team works diligently to keep 153 centerline miles of Westerville roadways clear of ice and snow each winter. This is also the division responsible for collecting a record-amount of leaves in Fall 2018. UTILITIES DIVISION This division is responsible for maintaining more than 400 miles of pipeline that make up the City’s water, sanitary sewer and stormwater systems. ENVIRONMENTAL MAINTENANCE Did you know the City maintains three cemeteries? They are all masterfully overseen by the Environmental Maintenance Division. This team also coordinates street sweeping and the all-important mosquito abatement program. FLEET MAINTENANCE DIVISION This division keeps 250 pieces of City equipment rolling. From compressors to salt spreaders, fire and police vehicles, the work of the Westerville Fleet Maintenance team is never done.
Westerville Public Service employees patch potholes during a break in the weather last spring.
PATCHWORK As freezing temperatures give way to the warmth of spring, potholes will inevitably appear on City streets. The Westerville Public Service Department is committed to patching these problematic spots. If you notice a street needing attention, let us know by selecting “Submit Request” on the My Westerville mobile app or by visiting www.westerville.org/servicerequest.
The Westerville’s Public Service Department is proud to provide outstanding services to residents and businesses. Next time you see a City vehicle passing by, be sure to give these dedicated public servants a wave. Learn more about the Westerville Public Department at www.westerville.org/service.

GET THE MOST OUT OF THE
“Westerville Consumer Confidence Report” Each spring, Westerville residents receive a pamphlet from the City’s Water Division called the “Consumer Confidence Report.” It can be a bit intimidating to read at first, but this document is full of important information about the quality of water being channeled to home taps. Here are some things you can expect to learn from the report: HOW WESTERVILLE WATER IS TREATED Environmentally-conscious residents will be pleased to know that the City practices progressive and “green” methods to keep water safe. For example, after water has been treated and softened, it is thoroughly filtered through granular activated carbon (GAC) filters. GAC is a sustainable resource and can be processed and reused time and again. WESTERVILLE’S SOURCE WATER AND HOW YOU CAN HELP PROTECT IT The majority of the City’s drinking water is sourced from Alum Creek. By its nature, surface water is susceptible to contamination. That is why the process to purify Westerville’s water is so rigorous. However, residents might be encouraged to know they play a serious role in protecting the City’s source water.

Annual Hydrant Flushing Program Returns in April
The Westerville Public Service Department will begin their annual hydrant-flushing program on Sunday, April 21. This two-week-long process serves an important purpose, helping to clear particulates from the more than 2,400 hydrants in the City. These particulates build up over time and need to be flushed from water lines. The process also gives Public Service crews an opportunity to inspect hydrants and valves for operational issues. During this time, residents may notice a brown-tint to their water. If this happens, the Public Service Department encourages residents to run the water through the tap for a few minutes. Residents are also encouraged to run their washer through a rinse cycle before completing laundry. Questions? Call Westerville Public Service at (614) 901-6740 or visit www.westerville.org.

National Bike Month Celebrate National Bike Month this May
With warmer weather on the horizon and an award-winning Recreational Trail System, the City of Westerville is the perfect place to celebrate National Bike Month this May. There is hardly a better time to enjoy the benefits of riding your bike, whether it is to get to work or school, to save money on gas improve physical fitness, or to simply explore your community. Established in 1956, National Bike Month is a chance to showcase the many benefits of bicycling and to encourage the community to give bicycling a try. Bike Month is sponsored by the League of American Bicyclists and celebrated in communities from coast-to-coast. National Bike Month is an opportunity to celebrate the unique power of the bicycle and the many reasons we ride. To kick off National Bike Month, Westerville will host a Bike Rodeo at Everal Barn at Heritage Park on Saturday, May 11. Free bicycle safety checks and e-bike demonstrations will be offered and Westerville Parks and Recreation will be helping with helmet fitting and safety. You can also get your bike registered with the Westerville Division of Police. Participating vendors will include the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC), TREK, Central Ohio Greenways, Franklin County Metro Parks, Ohio to Erie Trail, Rails to Trails Conservancy and the Westerville Bicycle Club. As part of National Bike Month, National Bike to Work Day will be held on Friday, May 17 with National Bike to Work Week 2019 taking place May 13–19. (National Bike to Work Day and Bike to Work Week originated in 1955 by the League of American Bicyclists and is endorsed by the American Medical Association.) Westerville is a proud bronze-level, Bicycle-Friendly Community with more than 44 miles of trails, two Central Ohio Greenway trails (Alum Creek and Big Walnut Trails), a State trail (Ohio to Erie Trail) and U.S. Bicycle Route 50.

OVERCOME BIKE COMMUTING CONCERNS I’M OUT OF SHAPE
Ride at an easy pace; in a few months you will be in great shape. Map your route on a weekend to find the easiest way to work.
I HAVE TO DRESS UP
Pack clothes with you and change at work; try rolling clothes instead of folding.
THE ROADS AREN’T SAFE
IT TAKES TOO LONG
The average commuter travels at 10 mph; the more you ride, the faster you will get. Trips of less than three miles will be quicker by bike. Trips of five to seven miles in urban areas may take the same time or less as by car.
Pick up a Westerville Recreational Trail map and guide at City Hall or the Westerville Community Center to plan out your path to work. Obey traffic signs, ride on the right, signal turns and stop at lights. Wear bright clothing. Wear a helmet every time you ride.
IT’S TOO FAR
Try riding to work and taking mass transit home, then alternating the next day.
I HAVE TO RUN ERRANDS
Combine riding and mass transit to shorten your commute.
Bolt a rack to the back of your bike to add carrying capacity.
MY BIKE IS BEAT UP
Make sure that you have a lock to secure your bike while you are in a building.
Visit a local bike shop for a tune up or bring you bike by the Bike Rodeo.
Allow extra time to get to scheduled appointments and find parking.
NO SHOWERS
Ride at an easy pace to stay cool and dry. Ride home at a fast pace if you want a workout; shower when you get there.

The Westerville Parks & Recreation Department is pleased to offer online registration for classes, programs and shelters. Online registration streamlines the process of registering by eliminating the need to wait in long lines on registration day. Any household that has previously participated in a Parks and Recreation program, pass, or facility reservation may already have an online account. Those wanting to sign up for the first time will need to create an account through our online registration site www.westerville.org /registration. Click “Create an Account” and follow the prompts. Proof of residency is required in order to be eligible for the discounted resident rates. With your active online account, you will be able to view class information, process registration and reservations, make secure credit card payments and view class enrollment counts from your home or office 24 hours a day! You can even make changes to your household and member’s information–fast, easy and secure. User name/passwords and household information can be changed once you log in. Click on “My Accounts.”
Visit the Westerville Community Center during the hours listed on page 35. Participants may register for ONE additional household other than their own during the registration process. Resident restrictions still apply. Senior Center members may register online or at the Community Center on Saturday and the Senior Center on Monday.
HOW TO UPDATE YOUR RESIDENCY STATUS WITH WESTERVILLE PARKS AND RECREATION AND UTILITY BILLING: Contact Utility Billing at (614) 901-6430 or askutilitybilling@westerville.org to ensure your phone number is current.
Contact Parks and Recreation at (614) 901-6500 or parksandrec@westerville.org to confirm the phone number associated with your Utility Billing account and Parks and Recreation account are the same. Once the phone number tied to the two departments are identical, you will no longer need to provide proof of residency and will receive resident rates when registering for programs with Parks and Recreation. Make sure to keep both departments updated with address and contact information changes to ensure this will continue in the future. For detailed information, call (614) 901-6500.

WESTERVILLE PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT • (614) 901-6500 • www.wester ville.org
POLICIES & PROCEDURES Fair Share Policy The City of Westerville Parks and Recreation Department is largely financed through City Income Tax dollars. Therefore, to be considered a “Resident” in our registration process, you must live or work full time within the corporate City Limits of Westerville or be a spouse or child of such person. “Non-resident” applies to all others. Even though you may have a Westerville mailing address or live within the school district, you may not live within the Westerville City Limits. We ask for your understanding when registering.
Resident/Non-resident Rates To receive discounted resident rates, Westerville residents will be required to present identification such as a valid driver’s license, photo ID card, utility bill or pay with a check with an address printed by the bank. Individuals employed full time in the Westerville City Limits will need to provide proof of employment on company letterhead with the signature of the personnel director or president or a current paycheck with their employer’s name and address along with a valid driver’s license. If a household has been granted residency status due to providing proof of Westerville income tax withholding and it is later revealed that a full refund of these taxes occurred, the City of Westerville reserves the right to collect the difference between the resident fee paid originally for the activity or pass and the appropriate non-resident fee. A $5.50 resident ID card may be purchased for registration and admission convenience.
