COMMUNITY CENTER EXPANSION ARRIVAL PLAZA TAKES SHAPE

The Community Center has seen many changes since the groundbreaking in October of 2018 and one of the most exciting is the new arrival plaza. Long gone is the circular rotating door that was an icon for the building. A new entrance will be opening soon that includes two sets of sliding doors into the soon-to-be-updated rotunda. Along with the new doors, the community will be greeted by an updated entry plaza complete with a drop-off area and drive. For additional information on the Community Center Expansion, visit www.westerville.org/centerexpansion. Warm Water Therapy Pool preparations almost complete.

Additional Gymnasium is almost completely enclosed.

New and expanded Fitness area underway.

CITY NAMED ICF SMART21 COMMUNITY The Intelligent Community Forum (ICF) is again recognizing the City of Westerville as a Global Smart21 Community. The ICF announced this distinction for the year 2020 at a conference in Rochester, N.Y. on Tuesday, Oct. 22. Next, Westerville and other Smart21 communities begin a more in-depth application process to be named to the list of 2020 Top7 Intelligent Communities. Last year, Westerville became the first city to be named to the Smart21 and Top7 lists on the first attempt. According to the ICF website, Smart Communities understand the challenges of a global economy and have taken conscious steps to create an ecosystem capable of prospering in it. Westerville has built a legacy of embracing innovation. From its role in the Underground Railroad to becoming the home of WeConnect (the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first municipally owned data center), The Point at Otterbein University and more. The ICF evaluates communities on the basis of their performance in six key indicators: broadband connectivity, knowledge workforce, innovation, digital equality, sustainability and advocacy. The cities of Columbus and Dublin have previously been recognized as Smart21 communities. For more information on the Smart21 or the ICF, visit intelligentcommunity.org/smart21.

City

THE CITY THAT CHANGED the U.S. Constitution The City of Westerville, Ohio has a bit of a niche in American history in case you haven’t heard. The “Dry Capital of the World” was established here more than 100 years ago, when the Anti-Saloon League formed its headquarters where the Westerville Public Library is today. Their efforts led to the 18th Amendment, which went into effect nationwide in January 1920. The 18th Amendment forbade the “manufacture, sale and transportation of intoxicating liquors.” It was repealed in December 1933 with the ratification of the 21st Amendment, but left a lasting effect on our community. “Some Americans believed a better society required the government to prohibit the sale of alcohol. Other Americans believed Prohibition would violate their individual rights,” said Bruce Bailey, a lifetime Westerville resident, local history enthusiast and the City’s Law Director. “The Anti-Saloon League led the fight in favor of Prohibition.” You can learn more about an alcohol-free America at many sites in Westerville. One place that is nearly a single-source of information is the Westerville Public Library and its museum. If you haven’t already, take an afternoon to stroll around and see how history is reflected a century later in Westerville.

100 Years Later Prohibition History Starts Here

Visit the Anti-Saloon League Museum (Westerville Public Library): Celebrate the unveiling of the Westerville History Center & Museum's newest exhibit: Prohibition! Expectation vs. Reality. Travel back in time to the Prohibition era (19201933) and learn about unintended consequences and unexpected outcomes. Visitors may also experience what life was like 100 years ago with interactive displays of historic objects, audio clips, photo-ops, and more. Learn more: www.westervillelibrary.org/exhibitions Read and reflect at “The American Issue” sculpture: In the front courtyard of Westerville City Hall stands a 13 and one half ft sculpture that commemorates the complicated issue of Prohibition, and how Westerville represented the struggle. Bailey commissioned the sculpture to tell the story through public art. “One-hundred years ago, alcohol was a social issue that drove a wedge between and divided America. It was the ‘American Issue’ of that day,” says Bailey. “The Anti-Saloon League was the 'war machine' of the prohibition movement that published and distributed the nationally-circulated newspaper, which was called ‘The American Issue,’ along with tons of other anti-alcohol literature. This was used successfully to wage an unprecedented political campaign that resulted in the passage of the 18th Amendment.” Bailey says the sculptor, Matthew Gray Palmer, extensively researched local history and paired the ideas of old and new to create a work of art that is as relevant today as it would have been 100 years ago. “Matthew created a sculpture that captures the essence of the conflict and the layers of controversy that continue regarding social issues we face in our country today. If you will, our American issues,” said Bailey. Watch the making of The American Issue on WestervilleTV at www.westerville.org/tv. Scroll to the Parks & Recreation category and select “The American Issue Sculpture.” Watch the Ken Burns/Lynn Novic documentary, “Prohibition.” In 2011, acclaimed documentary filmmaker Ken Burns and director Lynn Novic visited Westerville to premiere “Prohibition,” a three-part, five-and-a-half-hour telling of the Prohibition story. Bailey says the documentary sparked the idea for the public art project. The film is available to be checked-out at the Westerville Public Library and is currently available on the streaming service Netflix.

WHILE IN HISTORIC UPTOWN WESTERVILLE: Check out the decor at Uptown Deli & Brew Temperance Row Brewing is located within the popular Uptown eatery. They are “the first legal brewery in Westerville since Purley and Howard (Anti-Saloon League Founders) came to town. You can order a brew like Corbin’s Revenge (a nod to the saloon owner who had his establishment blown up by dynamite...twice!) or Forty Ton Porter (a reference to the amount of mail leaving Westerville to promote Prohibition) and learn more from restaurant decor featuring pictures from the characters of the day. Enjoy a “Carry Nation” sundae at Whit’s Frozen Custard Carry Nation was a radical Prohibitionist best known for attacking saloons with a hatchet. In the late 1800s, she joined the Women’s Christian Temperance Union, founded by women “concerned about the problems alcohol was causing their families and society.” Nation died in 1911, not living to see Prohibition become law nationwide. Westerville’s Whit’s Frozen Custard offers a piece of local history in a turtlelover’s sundae named for Nation. Take note of the roof at Northstar Cafe When Central Ohio-favorite Northstar Cafe announced they were coming to Westerville in 2015, a lengthy design project began to create a restaurant that would align with Northstar’s style and function while fitting with Uptown’s historic district. Northstar owners not only agreed to incorporate the mosaic from the former Kyoto Japanese Tea House that was once on the same site, but also recognized Westerville’s history in the building’s design. The roof on Northstar is a replica of The American Issue Publishing Co. roof in the 1920s, which was located directly across the street. See historic homes on a stroll along “Temperance Row” Twenty homes built and occupied during 1910-1935 by Prohibitionists have become known as Temperance Row. The district, along Park and Grove Sts., is on the National Register of Historic Places, recognized by the National Park Service as the nationally significant enclave where leaders of the Anti-Saloon League of America lived and raised their families.

Uptown Improvements U P TOW N I M P R OV E M E N T P R O J E C T

RESUME IN NEW YEAR

Work to bring Uptown sidewalks to compliance with the Americans with Disability Act (ADA) and more are expected to start again in January 2020. The Uptown Improvement Project also involves pavement resurfacing and upgrading traffic signal components throughout the project area. The project was temporarily suspended in November 2019 for the busy holiday shopping season. Even with Otterbein University serving as a site host for the CNN/New York Times Democratic Debate, an event of unprecedented scale for the area, the City made major headway on this program in 2019, including: •

Installation of convenient public parking wayfinding signage and release of a map showing parking lot locations

•

Construction of wider sidewalks, ramps and drives along State Street between Park and Winter Streets

Once the project picks back up for its final stretch, work will begin to: •

Replace curb one-foot closer to the centerline, both sides of street

•

Replace sidewalk to meet ADA requirements

•

Install bump outs at the following locations:

North side of the drive near Westerville Division of Police Headquarters

Intersection of State and Winter Streets

Westerville City Hall crosswalk with a pedestrian-activated flasher

At the marquee at 8 N. State St.

•

Incorporate transit (i.e. taxi, valet) as needed

•

Street furniture: bike racks, landscaping

We asked Chief Chandler about his reflections on being named WPD Chief, as well as priorities for the year ahead.

DIV ISION OF POLICE

STAFF PROFILE

WPD’S NEW CHIEF

BORN FOR ROLE

Charles “Cappy” Chandler is living a family legacy as a career law enforcement professional. With his appointment in August as Westerville Division of Police Chief, Chandler has realized his boyhood dream of leading a public safety agency, just like his father before him. “My dad was an assistant fire chief, so I was always exposed to the way public safety is one with the community they serve. I was raised with great respect for public service, and it influenced the career path I wanted to take from early on.” Chandler is a 24-year law enforcement veteran, 18 of which have been at the Westerville Division of Police (WPD). He has served as Assistant Chief of Police since December 2018, including four months as Acting Chief of Police earlier this year. He replaces Joseph Morbitzer, who was appointed superintendent of the state of Ohio’s Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI) by Attorney General Dave Yost earlier this year. Chandler has been a WPD supervisor since 2005 when he was first appointed Corporal. The next year, Chandler was promoted to Sergeant, then Lieutenant in 2017. Chandler has supervised operations in all WPD bureaus, including Investigations, Patrol and Community Services. Prior to his law enforcement career, Chandler served in the U.S. Army Reserve. Chandler holds a Bachelors and Master’s degree in Criminal Justice Administration from Columbia Southern University. He is a graduate of several law enforcement executive programs, including the Northwestern School of Police Staff and Command and the Police Executive Leadership College (PELC). He has received numerous honors in his career with WPD, including Officer of the Year and the Medal of Honor. Chandler was also appointed by Governor Kasich in 2018 to serve on the Ohio Criminal Sentencing Commission. “It is the highlight of my professional career to serve Westerville in this role,” said Chandler. “I am focused on the idea of ‘community first,’ and I will carry that forward in meeting the high expectations Westerville has of its Division of Police and its Chief. This is an important time for our City, its growth, and the future of the WPD, and I am fully prepared to maintain our public safety priorities as we move into a new decade.” City Manager David Collinsworth said the selection process was competitive, with strong interest from candidates across the region and state seeking to lead WPD. “It speaks highly of the caliber of professionals we have internally,” said Collinsworth. “Not only were Chief Chandler’s qualifications and experience a good match, but he is already part of the fabric of our community and has been instrumental in the success of the Division. I’m proud we had the opportunity to promote from within for this important and highly visible position.”

How has life changed for you the last several weeks you’ve transitioned to Chief of Police? Well first thing, my calendar has definitely filled up! We have a lot of big things going on at the police department, including the proposed construction and renovation of a new Police/Court facility. We’re also evaluating security for our public meetings and making some incremental changes in our organizational structure. I really need to thank my wife for her understanding and patience as I've transitioned in my new role in service to the community. It's been busy, but fun, and I really enjoy the new position and the challenge. You say “Westerville First” when you talk about some of your early leadership strategies. What does that mean to you? Westerville as a City has influence and name recognition in the Central Ohio region and across the state, and that includes our Division of Police. When I say "Westerville First" it really means I am taking a look at our resources and making sure that we are distributing those resources in a way that serves our citizens first while still remaining influential in the region. Simply put, we are making sure to put an emphasis on ensuring Westerville is our first priority before committing to programs on a regular basis outside our jurisdiction. What do you see as the leading priorities as Westerville marches into 2020? An emphasis on maintaining our community programming while focusing on investigations and enforcement. Westerville, like the rest of Ohio, has had citizens suffer loss due to the opioid crisis in Ohio. In the coming months additional resources and emphasis will be added in the fight to investigate and prosecute providers of these dangerous drugs. We also want to strengthen our educational outreach on public safety issues to the community, making a concerted effort in partnership with our Westerville Division of Fire and Parks and Recreation. We will be educating on issues like the previously mentioned heroin and opioid crisis and firearms safety. Internet scams targeting our City's aging population is another concern we will continue to address through educational outreach. As our City continues to grow and flourish, traffic is a big citizen concern. Increased directed enforcement in problem areas such as school zones and high accident areas will be a priority for our agency. Hiring and training new staff is also a big priority going into 2020, and continuing our officer training. What are your hopes, in terms of accomplishments, at this time next year? By this time next year I hope to have a reorganized Investigations Bureau and our ranks filled to prepare for the departure of four veteran officers in 2021. We hope to be in the construction phase of the new Police/Court facility. Several outreach activities in partnership with other City departments will also be a sign of accomplishment into 2020. Together as a City we can continue to increase the already great quality of life that we all value. What would you like people to call you when they see you out in public? In public, a simple “Chief!” will get my attention. Chief Cappy or Chief Chandler are fine as well. I embrace the “Cappy” nickname and consider it an honor since it is derived from my namesake: my grandfather "Cap" Casper Rausch, a WWII paratrooper with the 82nd Airborne Division. He is truly one of my heroes.

The Westerville Division of Police includes a staff of more than 100 employees, including 76 sworn officers. For more information on WPD, please visit www.westerville.org/police.

"For All First Responders" First Responders Park Reopened Westerville’s newly expanded First Responders Park was dedicated again on November 14, 2019. The park was designed to incorporate light and water as elements of inspiration and reflection. While the park is beautiful anytime of day, there is something special about the use of light amid the flickering of the eternal flame. In recognition of the park’s expansion, the City of Westerville created a commemorative item for attendees at the rededication ceremony. This paper lantern features Westerville’s fallen heroes - Officer Anthony P. Morelli, Officer Eric Joering and Firefighter David Theisen - alongside the centerpiece of the park: C-40 from the north tower of the World Trade Center. The paper luminary is printed on all four sides with the phrase: “For All First Responders.” This phrase was the guiding philosophy for the park’s expansion. In an effort to thank the community for bringing the idea of “Westerville Strong” to life, the paper luminary is available for pick-up at Westerville City Hall while supplies last. Simply place a battery-operated tealight (provided, also while supplies last) at the base of the paper to bring the light of First Responders Park into your home.

Residents Help Finalize

Westerville’s Mobility Roadmap After months of extensive community outreach, City staff are completing the final draft of the Westerville Strategic Mobility Plan. The document will help guide future decisions based on considerations from the Westerville Community Plan. The plan supports community-building by guiding decision-making for future projects to make biking, walking, and other mobility modes an easier, safe and accessible choice. Building a network of connectivity around our Uptown, University, commercial centers, neighborhoods, parks and playgrounds, and schools will make Westerville a vibrant place to work and live. “A balanced and functional transportation system is a key element of any vibrant community. A well-planned system should connect residents to jobs, shops and recreational activities while managing congestion and promoting healthy lifestyles,” said Westerville Traffic Engineer Jennifer Alford, who spearheaded the creation of the plan. Hundreds of residents shared their opinions about how the City should prioritize mobility improvements at open house and other community events. More than 600 residents responded to the City’s online survey, which was available over the summer. “The voices of our residents are the most important element of this plan. We asked questions that gave us insight into the ‘appetite’ for varying modes of mobility,” Alford said. “We’re fortunate to have an engaged community willing to partner with us on these efforts.”

KEY TAKEAWAYS VEHICLE TRAVEL

Safety concerns, most notably motorists traveling over the speed limits Signal timing and congestion during high-volume rush hours Large truck traffic from State Street to Cleveland Avenue (Note: The City cannot prohibit truck traffic because State Street is a state route.)

PEDESTRIAN TRAVEL

Complete sidewalk connections throughout the City, to make neighborhoods and schools more walkable Enforcement to ensure vehicles stop for pedestrians in crosswalks

BICYCLE TRAVEL

Increase east to west connectivity in the City Add protected bike lanes Education about the rules of sharing the road

PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION

Many indicated an interest in a circulator or shuttle to improve connections to the already available COTA stops Increased transportation options for older adults and people with disabilities Other overall takeaways included increasing green space near transportation corridors and embracing more “green” technology like electric vehicles.

The final Mobility Plan will be available on the City website by late November. Later this year and in early 2020, presentations will be made to the Planning Commission and City Council. Learn more at www.westerville.org/mobility. 11

Thank you, Westerville! Voters approve new WPD headquarters on south side

Public safety and court operations will have a new home in Westerville, thanks to the support of residents who approved Issue 29 on Tuesday, November 5. Voters said yes to a 0.96 mill request to combine the operations of the Westerville Division of Police (WPD), Emergency Communications (9-1-1), Investigations and Mayor’s Court, housing each department under one roof. The approval initiates the process for WPD to move its headquarters from Uptown to a larger building to be renovated at 229 Huber Village Blvd. Planning for a new facility has been underway for nearly a decade, primarily to accommodate WPD’s growth and expanded operations. Chief of Police Charles Chandler says the department has grown along with the expansion of the community. “Twenty years ago, WPD has 39 officers and significantly less programs and services when compared to today,” said Chief Chandler. “We now have more than 70 officers who work and train alongside a civilian staff in Records, 9-1-1 technicians and other positions. We simply outgrew our space in Uptown. Now our staff will work together in one building for the first time in our department’s history.” The City of Westerville purchased the building last year when it became available. The existing office building is a 28,500 square-foot complex which will be renovated for office space, including a large community meeting room. An addition to the building will create space for training, evidence and secure holding rooms for prisoners or other individuals arriving to or departing from Mayor’s Court. The $15 million project cost will cost residents about $2.80 for every $100,000 of home value beginning in 2021. The average Westerville homeowner may pay around $35 a year for this public safety expansion. Notably, in two years the bond for Fire Station 113 on the south side of Westerville will roll off. “I think we made the case to our residents that the time had come to expand,” said Chief Chandler. “We visited every neighborhood and public meeting we could find this year to talk about our space needs and improving public safety in

Westerville. It was exciting to have these conversations, and I’m grateful for the support.” That sentiment is echoed by Westerville Mayor Craig Treneff. “Our residents consistently tell us that public safety is their most important priority,” said Mayor Treneff. “This vote of support tells us that we are making decisions together about protecting our community. It was a privilege to talk to residents about this issue and hear first-hand about their trust in WPD to move forward and grow with Westerville.” Now that the project is advancing, the City will begin the process of selling three properties, the proceeds of which will offset the overall cost to renovate and build the Police/Court facility. The building known as the “old post office” at 28 S. State St. (directly across State St. from City Hall), the building at 64 E. Walnut St. and the Armory at 240 S. State St. will be listed for sale sometime in 2020. When WPD vacates its current headquarters at 29 S. State St., staff from the 64 E. Walnut St. building will move in. “We’ve carefully planned the reorganization of facilities and staff in order to reduce the footprint of government buildings in Uptown and free parking that is consumed by a 24/7 Police operation,” said David Collinsworth, Westerville City Manager. “Now that voters have said yes, we can work on streamlining operations for a stronger, more unified Police and public safety force.” WPD will maintain an office at Westerville City Hall, from where the Uptown officer will be stationed. Patrol officers will also use the satellite facility as needed. Construction on the building is expected to begin sometime in 2020 after the project is publicly advertised and awarded to a company by Westerville City Council.

Westerville Stays Golden WITH FIFTH NATIONAL RECOGNITION

The City of Westerville Parks & Recreation Department is entering 2020 as a five-time National Gold Medal winner as named by the 2019 National Recreation & Parks Association (NRPA). The City is the first to win the award four times consecutively since 1996. Westerville was announced as a finalist for the Class IV National Gold Medal in May after an extensive application process involving staff, community members and volunteers. The City previously won the Gold Medal in 1974, 2001, 2007 and 2013. Communities are eligible to apply for the award every five years. The Gold Medal Award honors communities throughout the United States that demonstrate excellence in long-range planning, resource management and agency recognition. Each agency is judged on its ability to address the needs of those it serves through the collective energies of citizens, staff and elected officials. Westerville competed against three other finalists in its category: Coppell Parks and Recreation in Coppell, Texas; Glenview Park District in Glenview, Illinois; and Lombard Park District in Lombard, Illinois. Westerville Parks & Recreation Director Randy Auler said the award is especially meaningful because it recognizes achievement on behalf of the residents and workforce who support the community parks system. “The funding that supports the parks system’s master plan was approved six years early so that we could keep our momentum with new projects and the expansion of the Westerville Community Center,” said Auler. “It has been a partnership to keep Westerville ‘a city within a park,’ and this fully represents the commitment of the staff, the residents and all those who make Westerville a national leader in parks and recreation.” Learn more about what makes Westerville a gold medal community at www.westerville.org/goldmedal.

Westerville Shines as Host City for Democratic Presidential Debate What happened behind-the-scenes during the City’s prep for major event?

The CNN/The New York Times hosted the Democratic National Committee’s (DNC) Presidential Debate at Otterbein University on October 15 and cast Westerville into the global spotlight. The massive effort was made possible by hundreds of staff members representing all departments across the City. The Westerville Divisions of Police and Fire, led by Police Chief Charles Chandler and Fire Chief Brian Miller, and Community Affairs Director Christa Dickey were closely involved with event logistics from the CNN site visit to event operations related to public services beginning the weekend before the Debate. Westerville City Manager David Collinsworth oversaw event management.

David Collinsworth

Westerville City Manager

When did we know that Otterbein and Westerville was being considered for this event?

What were some of the tools you used in event operations?

Dickey: A couple members of staff were invited to a site visit at Otterbein in mid-August with few details. On that day, at least 20 producers, special event managers and security personnel from CNN flew in to see Otterbein’s Rike Center. From the City’s standpoint, we were answering questions about public safety and support, but at a high level. After that meeting, things sat for awhile. There were even a few speculations published that Youngstown or Dayton would be host cities before the formal announcement on Friday, September 13. Otterbein gave us a heads up, but staff knew only a few hours before the rest of the world. From that point, we had a short six weeks to work with the event organizers and Otterbein to put this in motion.

Collinsworth: This summer, the City acquired a drone for public safety and related municipal purposes. That tool was invaluable on the day of the event. We were able to monitor several streets and crowds in real-time. Prior to this, the drone has been helpful in locating lost children at big events like 4th Friday. In the event of fire, the drone can seek out hot-spots to help firefighters. I believe that this technology is quickly becoming an essential tool for local governments.

What were some of the major tasks?

Chief Brian Miller

Westerville Fire Division

Chief Charles Chandler

Westerville Division of Police

Chief Miller: We decided early on that the City needed to manage this event as a major incident, utilizing a nationally recognized protocol and process known as the National Incident Management System (NIMS). Part of my role as Fire Chief is to manage the Emergency/Event Operations Center (EOC), which is a centralized operations center for City staff and support agencies during major emergency events (natural disasters, civil disorder, etc.). Otterbein, Franklin County Sheriff’s Office (FCSO), FBI, Westerville City Schools and all City departments worked together in the EOC. Chief Chandler: The City had to make early decisions about the safety perimeter around the facility, and what road closures that required. We also had to decide about “Free Speech” areas, because several groups made us aware of plans to conduct protests and demonstrations. Closing Main St. on campus for that purpose was helpful, and we knew some of it would spill over into Uptown, so we worked closely with the Uptown merchants and residents to communicate about expectations. There was also some debate and consideration given to the idea of closing State St. as we would for a Fourth Friday. It was decided against due to concerns about out of town traffic getting pushed into neighborhoods and the potential impact for Uptown merchants.

How did the public safety plan come together?

Christa Dickey

City of Westerville Community Affairs Director

Chief Chandler: We partnered early on with the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office which has a special unit to manage large scale events, such as the OSU football games. Their deputies and resources, including horses and bike patrols, were incredibly helpful in managing the large crowds the day-of. A lot of work went into the safety plan, and that effort resulted in no arrests or major injuries.

What did we learn from the event? Chief Miller: I think it confirmed much of what we know and train to do. Staff takes seriously the responsibility to be ready for a major incident, whether that is a tornado or an event with a lot of moving parts. I would want residents and visitors to know that we worked hard to ensure their safety, and part of that is being prepared year-round for any type of event we may encounter. And, the professionalism of the teams who came in to add to our resources cannot be overstated. Chief Chandler: It’s fair to say we were ready for just about anything, but I found there to be a great energy among the people who came out for this event. I took the opportunity to work the street, primarily in Uptown. Most people were friendly and excited to just be part of the event. Safety was their priority as well, so the rules were followed by the vast majority of folks were civil. Dickey: The collaboration and cooperation from our partners in the community was incredible. Of course Otterbein, and their students, faculty and staff. But also Westerville City Schools, Uptown merchants and importantly, our residents. We shared the information as it came in, and everyone responded to figure out their way around an opportunity or any roadblock or inconvenience. Collinsworth: As I noted after the debate’s announcement, Westerville is no stranger to being in the spotlight having hosted prior Presidential candidate visits, the 2018 State of the State Address by Gov. Kasich, and of course the tragic events of Feb. 10, 2018 with the shooting of Officers Tony Morelli and Eric Joering. More recently, the accolades of Parks & Recreation’s Fifth Gold Medal Award and the City’s designation as a TOP7 Intelligent Community by the Intelligent Communities Forum (ICF) have also added to the City’s stature. Our showing at the DNC Debate was yet another feather in the community’s cap. Everyone should be proud of the welcome we offered, even among people who disagree about politics and social issues. Well done, Westerville!

om S r R f O I s R note AD WAR O R E H T Leaf Collection Program Ends Dec. 20 Snow removal begins as required As the Westerville Public Service Department’s leaf collection program winds down and prepares to give way to snow clearing, your Road Warriors want you to remember some key safety tips to ensure the services are provided safely and successfully.

Leaf Collection Rake all leaves to the tree lawn (between the sidewalk and the street), but not in the street in order to protect our streams. Ensure leaf piles are free of large sticks, twigs and any trash or debris that could cause damage to the leaf collection equipment and injuries to personnel. Avoid parking vehicles in front of leaf piles and remove other obstructions such as basketball hoops from the right of way.

Snow Removal Remember: Snowplowing may not be productive until snowfall reaches a depth of an inch or two. For many storms, crews will begin by spreading de-icers in an attempt to get a layer of brine against the pavement. If accumulations exceed two inches crews will begin plowing as they spread deicers. During intense storms, the spreading of de-icers will be discontinued and crews will plow until such time as snowfall stops. When shoveling to the curb edge, remember to place snow on the left side of the driveway (facing the property) so it will not be plowed back into your drive. If possible, avoid parking on the street before and during snow events.

Protect Your Family From Winter Fire Dangers DIV I SION OF FIRE

According to the United States Fire Administration (USFA) half of all reported home heating fires occur in December, January and February. The Westerville Division of Fire (WFD) is encouraging residents to remain hyper-vigilant whenever using personal space heaters, fireplaces and candles this winter. Winter months in Central Ohio are notoriously brutal with cold, cutting winds and gray skies. While there may be nothing better than staying cozy in a warm house during this time, WFD Chief Brian Miller says residents should never be too comfortable with their personal heating sources.

In addition to fire prevention, Chief Miller implores residents to make sure they have functioning Carbon Monoxide (CO) detectors in their homes. Batteries should be changed at least every six months and the devices themselves tested every month. According to the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than 400 U.S. citizens die each year from accidental CO poisoning. Learn more about the Westerville Fire Division at www.westerville.org/fire.

“It’s easy to forget that you have a space heater running in a room as you go about your day. But you should never leave one unattended,” Chief Miller said. “All it takes is a child or pet knocking over a space heater or something flammable coming into contact with it for a dangerous situation to occur.” The National Fire Protection Association researchers say that one in seven home fire and, more startlingly, one in five home fire deaths involve heating equipment. Chief Miller says residents should look into personal heating devices with an automatic shutoff and other safety features. Any item that could burn should be kept at least three feet away from sources of heat like candles, fireplaces and, of course, space heaters.

OHIO RECOGNIZES WFD LIEUTENANT

FOR OUTSTANDING TEACHING, OUTREACH EFFORTS This fall, Westerville Division of Fire Lieutenant Jay Compson was named the State of Ohio’s Fire Service Instructor of the Year. In addition to his outstanding reputation as a highly respected instructor in the field, Lt. Compson was recognized as he, “exemplifies the highest character and ability to connect with both cadets and incumbent firefighters,” according to the State Fire Marshal’s website. But Lt. Compson’s reach extends far beyond the classroom and his passion for educating extends beyond men and women in the fire service to those who care for the first responders. The 24-year veteran of the fire service is on a mission to educate physicians, social workers counselors and others in the mental health field about firefighter suicide and the unique mental health stressors these first responders face. His outreach efforts have impacted hundreds of professionals in the field. Learn more about the Westerville Division of Fire at www.westerville.org/fire.

WESTERVILLE ELECTRIC DIVISION RECOGNIZED FOR INNOVATION, SUSTAINABLE PROGRAMS

The men and women of the Westerville Electric Division (WED) often hear positive feedback for their stellar service from residential and business customers. This fall, they were recognized by regional industry leaders at the 2019 American Municipal Power (AMP) and the Ohio Municipal Electric Association (OMEA) Conference. WED received three awards along with an honorable mention and commendation. WED was recognized with the AMP Innovation Award for the Nest Rush Hour Rewards Program. When residents enroll in this program, Nest is able to make minor, shortterm adjustments remotely to their homes' temperature settings during the summer months. These changes are intended to reduce power usage during peak consumption times, which can keep future electric rates low for the entire City. In recognition of the PowerUp Commercial EVSE Rebate Program, WED received the AMP System Sustainability Award. This initiative aims to expand public EV charging infrastructure through a rebate program that is available to electric business customers who install qualified, networkconnected electric vehicle charging stations.

The Division won the AMP Public Power Promotion Award for its video, “The People Behind the Power.” The City created the video to educate the community about public power and the Westerville Electric Division. The production was released on Lineworkers Appreciation Day in spring 2019. WED took home an AMP System Improvement Honorable Mention for its Circuit 41 System Improvement Project. A heavily tree-lined circuit was upgraded with a new special cable, resulting in increased reliability and a reduction of outages in that specific area of the City. AMP also awarded the Westerville Electric Division a Safety Commendation in the Transmission and Distribution category for less than one percent time lost due to reportable accidents or injuries. The annual AMP/OMEA Conference was held in Columbus Sept. 23-25. More than 375 municipal officials and industry representatives attended along with speakers from national organizations. For more information about the Westerville Electric Division, visit www.westerville.org/electric.

LED HOLIDAY LIGHTS COST LESS TO POWER:

The Westerville Electric Division is again offering holiday light recycling beginning Friday, Nov. 22 at 139 E. Broadway Ave. Drop off lights from 8 a.m. - 4 p.m. to receive a high-efficiency alternative or drop off lights in the marked bin at any time. The strands will be recycled at no cost to the City by a scrap metals-andmaterials vendor, keeping them out of landfills. This environmentally friendly program helps the City by removing inefficient drains on the power grid and Rumpke, the Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s refuse and recycling contractor, because string lights can become entangled in equipment.

Incandescent C-9 Lights $10

LED C-9 Lights $0.27

Incandescent Mini-lights $2.74

LED Mini-lights $0.82

Ditching old, inefficient holiday lights in favor of high-efficiency LEDs brings benefits to residents as well. Here are some facts from the United States Department of Energy. LED HOLIDAY LIGHTS ARE SAFER They run much cooler than incandescent lights which can reduce the risk of combustion or finger burns. LED HOLIDAY LIGHTS LAST LONGER Typically, LED string lights should last up to 40 holiday seasons. Learn more about this program at www.westerville.org/lightrecycling.

Based on estimated electricity costs to light a six-foot tree for 12 hours a day for 40 days.

Holiday lights, batteries and light bulbs can be safely recycled at the Westerville Electric Division year round!

CELEBRATING THRIVING WESTAR AREA After 20 Years

November marks the 20-year anniversary of the completion of the Maxtown Road/Polaris Parkway extension, paving the way for the planned development in what would be known as the Westar-area.

The area continues to spur growth, first with the opening of Liebert Global Services (now known as Vertiv) in 1999, to the flourishing medical mile and more recently into the desirable Westar Place.

Anyone who has lived in Westerville for longer than a decade has no doubt witnessed the City transform before their very eyes. Nowhere is this more evident than in Westar.

With a strong strategic foundation established many years ago, the City has created a healthy business ecosystem with the help of a permitting approval process that agrees with the needs of modern-day companies.

Two decades ago, City leaders saw the potential for the 941-acres of farmland to be much more. Once retired from hard labor, the land would yet be fertile ground for a different kind of growth, the harvest from which continues to benefit the residents of Westerville. Twenty years later, the land that once produced crops and cattle now yields thousands of jobs, millions in income-tax dollars and hosts exciting, cutting-edge amenities.

Learn more about economic development in Westerville at business.westerville.org.

Located in Delaware County, the City annexed those 941 acres and made a $30 million investment to extend critical infrastructure, including the all-important road network, to the area.

MILITARY BANNERS RETURN IN NOVEMBER The banners honoring the 41 sons and daughters of Westerville who have or are currently serving in the U.S. Armed Forces will again be placed in Uptown in November in recognition of Veterans Day. Each man and woman featured has a unique story. You can read them all at www.westerville.org/militarybanners. Applications for the 2020 Westerville Military Banner Program will be available beginning at 8 a.m. on Monday, Jan. 6. Applications are due no later than 5:30 p.m. on Friday, March 6. The banners feature the individual’s military photo on full-color, double-sided banners on light poles in Uptown Westerville along State Street, between Home and Walnut Streets. Banners cost $130 and reservations for space are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Because of the projected popularity for this program and a limited number of poles, applicants will be added to a waitlist for the next year if applicable. Part of the banner proceeds will support the Westerville Parks Foundation. First priority for the program will be given to Westerville residents (proof of residency will be required e.g. copy of utility bill, driver's license). The second priority extends to residents of the Westerville City School District (WCSD). Banners will be displayed during the month of May and again in November to coincide with Veterans Day. Last year, the City elected to keep the banners up through the Fourth of July. After a banner is posted for the two-month terms, it will be returned to the individual(s) who purchased it in the first week of December. The applicant must be an immediate family member (spouse, parent, sibling, grandchild or legal guardian) of the service member. Read eligibility requirements and the program policy at www.westerville.org/militarybanners.

WPD "Grooming"

for Charitable Effort The Westerville Division of Police (WPD) will support the Westerville Area Resource Ministry (WARM) throughout the months of November and December by participating in “Whiskers for WARM.” In the months of January and February, WPD will support the Tunnels to Towers Foundation through “Whiskers for Warriors.” The charitable programs will allow officers to grow facial hair or participate with creative and/or decorative nail designs/ polish during these months for a $100 donation for each respective campaign. “Like many other professional law enforcement agencies, WPD has always had a policy to provide that officers are department are clean-shaven and that nails are trimmed and neatly polished,” said Chief Charles Chandler. The policy requires that beards and goatees are neatly groomed. While the policy for fingernail length is not changed, creative and decorative designs are encouraged outside of the usual clear and conservative language regarding nail polish. Chief Chandler says the policy suspension provides a creative way for officers to participate in charitable programs.

Officers Pignatelli and Wojciechowski show off their progress for Whiskers for WARM.

“This department has a long-standing tradition of giving back, and we want to recognize that during the holiday seasons when the need is greater in our community,” said Chandler. “This is a great way to get behind the W.A.R.M. food drive and show our appreciation to the Tunnels to Towers Foundation for their support of the Morelli and Joering families.” Chandler says WPD will keep the community apprised of officers’ progress on our social media accounts.

AGE-FRIENDLY INITIATIVE

G E N E R AT I N G I M P O R TA N T I N S I G H T S

The City has launched an Age-Friendly Initiative to learn how local government and residents can work together to keep Westerville a great place for all residents to live, work, play and retire.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS

To get a true picture of what life is like for older adults in Westerville, the City hosted a number of community focus groups and conducted a statistically valid survey of residents ages 55 and over. While no two people will have the same experience, the conversations generated three key preliminary takeaways: •

Residents are interested in local transportation options like a City circulator or shuttle service.

•

Residents are interested in opportunities for intergenerational activities through school and Parks partnerships

•

Many residents and senior service providers expressed concerns about housing costs.

Age-Friendly Housing Workshop Friday, Nov. 22 2-4 p.m. Westerville City Hall 21 S. State St.

More than 450 residents responded to the survey, enough for it to be determined statistically valid. The City will now compile survey results and generate a data report. Ultimately, the City will use the data to create an Age-Friendly Action Plan to help guide future development and programming decisions. The action plan is expected to start taking shape in spring 2020. In the meantime, residents can share their ideas about how Westerville can be a place where everyone can thrive.

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.
