COMMUNITY CENTER GOALS

Expansion Plans Move Forward

As 2017 comes to a close, the time has come for the Westerville Community Center to enter the phases that will become forever known as PRE-EXPANSION and POST-EXPANSION. Residents and guests loyal to the Center since its opening in 2001 are about six months away from the least desirable phase, “CONSTRUCTION,” (the Center stays open!) before we can fully experience all the thrilling improvements and enhancements that will be introduced post-expansion.

YOU ASKED FOR IT

Expanded fitness programming? Check. Adventure obstacle course? Check. Warm-water therapy pool?

Check. More gymnasium and fitness equipment space?

Check, check. It’s all included in the first and secondfloor schematic designs finalized for the building.

The same quality Parks & Recreation programming will be complemented with new and exciting building upgrades, like interactive, video game-based water slides in the indoor pool. These improvements were among the highest priorities to the more than 3,000 residents who participated in a survey or offered feedback to the expansion public input sessions.

PARKING MAKES PERFECT

To better accommodate our residents and guests, the plan calls for the addition of more than 200 spaces west and south of the building. This increased accessibility grows with the Center and provides a new entry on the south end of the building where older adult services will be integrated into the facility.

A NEW HOME FOR ACTIVE OLDER ADULTS

One of the exciting concepts of the expansion is the integration of older adult services at the Center. In a state-of-the-art space on the south end of the building, older adults will have access to brand new program rooms (billiards, cards, etc.), new kitchen and a social lounge. This effort also better coordinates access to health and wellness activities, transportation and more.

NEW FOR NATURE LOVERS

The wetlands on the south and east side of the building have been underutilized since the building’s opening and this project has considered ways to incorporate our natural surrounding into the improved state of the facility. While our land preservation efforts are maintained, the wetlands viewing areas may offer a little serenity to your day.

PLAN FOR SUCCESS

City staff have worked to develop an aggressive timeline for the design, approvals and construction of the expansion project. Presented to Westerville City Council in October, the following is the workplan associated with the major project milestones. Dates are subject to adjustments. Check www.westerville.org/ centerexpansion for the most current information.

Aroundt h e City Hall Courtyard Civic Space Opens Uptown Plan Priority Realized More than three years ago, Westerville residents and Uptown merchants were involved in a public input process to shape a master plan for the historic Uptown District. With their guidance and feedback, Westerville City Council adopted the Uptown Plan in May 2014 (see it online at www.westerville.org/uptown), a document that outlined a variety of priorities for the district, including recommendations that would substantially "activate Uptown's potential." Number five on a list of nine priorities: "create a civic space in the core of Uptown to provide a community gathering place and amenity that draws people to Uptown."

While locations for a civic space were under consideration, maintenance and building improvements at Westerville City Hall were being budgeted. Of concern was the lack of ADA accessibility to the front of City Hall and the Westerville Division of Police headquarters next door (parking lot renovations in 2015-16 addressed ADA accessibility in the rear of the building) as well as the deterioration of the brick walkways and plaza.

City

The two City departments responsible for these objectives (Parks and Recreation [civic space] and Planning and Development [engineering and ADA compliance]) ultimately created a City Hall concept that realized the vision contemplated in the Uptown Plan.

After a summer of construction, the City Hall Courtyard opened in late fall, featuring mini-park greenspace, a stage for entertainment and music, seating for dining and leisure and space for all to enjoy.

“For a community known as a ‘City within a park,’ it was important for us to pair the maintenance we needed to do at City Hall and create a civic space everyone can use,” said David Collinsworth, Westerville City Manager.

“Our public investments in Uptown are generating significant private reinvestment resulting in sidewalks and streets busy with residents and visitors shopping, eating and enjoying their time in historic Westerville.

Not only are City Hall and its courtyard now accessible to everyone, it will come alive next spring with music and other programming for all to enjoy.”

Yes, the courtyard is still home for our holiday tree not to worry! The tree will be located in the middle of the green, tied into an embedded anchor not visible the remainder of the year.

WESTERVILLE LINEMEN

ASSIST DURING HURRICANE IRMA After Hurricane Irma took out power to portions of the state of Florida in September, four linemen from the Westerville Electric Division (WED) traveled south on a mutual-aid mission to assist with the electric outages and system devastation that resulted from the massive storm.

At the request of public power utility providers in Florida through American Municipal Power, WED linemen Curtis Blase, Todd Head, Chris Revennaugh and Chuck Penney drove a bucket truck, digger and pickup from Westerville to Clewiston, Fla. to begin what became a nearly full month of work restoring power for residents-in-need. On board one of the vehicles where hundreds of bottles of water which the crew distributed to community members in affected areas.

The crew spent more than 500 hours in a 24-day period in the public power communities of Clewiston and Homestead, clearing debris from lines, hanging new power lines and replacing broken and dangerous poles.

The temperature in Florida reached an average 90 degrees each day, with the heat index exceeding 113 degrees as they continued to work in rubber gloves and long sleeves.

Despite being without power for days, residents often delivered water and energy drinks to the linemen. “One resident brought us a bag of burgers from a local restaurant because she knew we had not had an opportunity to break that day,” said Blase. “They were the best burgers I have ever eaten.”

Toll booth workers also showed their appreciation, waiving WED’s trucks through the tolls. A truck stop employee opened crucial fuel pumps for our trucks and offered the four linemen a free meal for their service.

The group is thankful and humbled to have had the opportunity to help those in need. “I’d leave in a heartbeat if they needed us again,” said Penney.

Pardon Our Dust Walnut St. Facility Lobby Renovations Will Improve Customer Experience From the splendid recreational trail system and acres of parkland to the miles of smooth sidewalks and roadways, Westerville is known as a place for tending well to areas of the City frequented by residents and visitors. This focus on excellence is not limited to best-loved City resources, but also facilities frequented less so by choice, and more so by necessity.

That is why the main entrance and lobby of the City of Westerville facility, located at 64 E. Walnut St., is closed until March for renovations. This is the second phase of improvements, the first of which included improvements to the lobby restrooms for better ADA access.

The building, which houses the City’s Utility Billing, Income Tax, Planning & Development, some Parks and Recreation programming and Information Systems operations, is a destination for residents and visitors needing to pay utility bills, consult with income tax staff or submit permits for construction, engineering or inspection.

When the lobby reopens, visitors will find a more welcoming and functional place to interact with the City. New features will include new lighting and indoor and outdoor furnishings. The lobby will be a more comfortable place to conduct business with better space for customer interaction, including a new Income Tax consultation room.

During construction, members of the public are asked to access the building from the rear east and west entrances. For more information, visit www.westerville.org.

Thefts from Vehicles Most Common, Most Preventable Crime in Westerville Thefts from vehicles in the City of Westerville have increased month over month since this spring, according to the Westerville Division of Police (WPD). The vast majority of these thefts, nearly 90%, were from unlocked vehicles with valuable items visible from the outside. One case this summer resulted in the theft of the vehicle due to the key being left in the car overnight. As of press time in late October, thefts were at a 2017 high for the month, with 30 vehicles broken into, of which only two had been locked.

“Thefts from vehicles are one of the most common crimes in Westerville, and as these statistics show, are nearly completely preventable,” said Lt. Charles Chandler of the WPD Investigations Bureau. “Taking steps to secure your vehicle is likely to discourage a criminal from targeting you and your personal property.”

According to law enforcement experts, it takes less than a minute for a thief to break your car window and grab something of value inside. Each year, billions in personal items and accessories are stolen from vehicles, nationwide.

"These are crimes of opportunity. People leave their valuables in plain sight and someone walks by and sees that and seizes that opportunity," said Westerville Division of Police Chief Joe Morbitzer.

Lt. Chandler reminds residents that an unlocked car also gives a thief access to the trunk.

“Remember, this is just not what’s visible and accessible on your seats,” he said. “If you’re locking your vehicle, but thinking your valuables are safe in your trunk, think again.

All they need to do is open the door and pop the trunk.”

T WPD asks the community to

report anything that appears

unusual in public parking lots or in neighborhoods.

REPO R IT!

• Call the non-emergency phone line at (614) 882-7444. Call 9-1-1 for emergencies.

• Identify yourself by name, address and phone number.

• Report the type of crime (burglary, assault, suspicious person, or vehicle, etc.).

• State the location. Be prepared to be as specific as possible.

• Be prepared to provide a description of the suspect, a description of the vehicle, including license plate number and the direction of travel, if applicable.

8

• Stay on the phone with the dispatcher until they tell you that you may hang up, (unless you are in fear for your safety).

Don’t become a statistic.

Follow these easy car break-in prevention tips!

PARK IN A VISIBLE LOCATION Choose a location under a streetlight or close to the building.

Thieves like to work in private so a more public location would be best.

LOCK YOUR CAR Keep windows and sunroofs closed and doors locked; take all keys with you. Don’t make your car an easy target.

ACTIVATE YOUR VEHICLE’S ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM If you do not have one, consider having one installed. A blaring alarm can discourage a car break-in to a thief who likes to work quietly.

HIDE YOUR VALUABLES Many car break-ins happen on impulse, so keep your stuff out of sight. If you choose to bring items with you when you know your car will be parked for a while, place those items in a trunk or under a retractable cover BEFORE getting to your destination. An experienced car thief will stake out a parking lot watching for those transferring items from their car to their trunk.

DON’T LEAVE YOUR CAR RUNNING It can be tempting to leave your car running in the morning or when you’re just running in and out of the store, but this makes it pretty easy for a thief to hop in and drive away. Also, it’s illegal to leave your car running and unattended in Ohio to help prevent your car from getting stolen!

“Taking steps to secure your vehicle is likely to discourage a criminal from targeting you and your personal property” - Lt. Charles Chandler, WPD Investigations Bureau

Program Empowers Westerville Businesses to Protect Waterways The City of Westerville and Franklin Soil and Water Conservation District (FSWD) are encouraging local businesses to become partners in protecting Westerville’s stormwater.

FSWD works to promote responsible land use for the conservation and protection of soil and water. When it rains or snow melts, water drains from paved surfaces (streets, parking lots, etc.) directly into local streams, carrying with it litter, improperly-stored chemicals and other pollutants. While the water is extensively filtered by the City before it reaches home faucets, local animals and plants don’t receive the same benefit.

The Water Quality Partner (WQP) program recognizes the local business community’s power in helping to sustain the City’s important natural resources and provides simple, voluntary and effective steps to help keep pollutants out of our rivers and streams.

In order to become a WQP in the City, businesses will sign a pledge to educate employees about stormwater issues, keep chemicals and pollutants properly contained and consider planting beneficial vegetation to keep streams clean (among other steps). Participating businesses will receive a special window cling to recognize their commitment to Westerville’s waterways.

The responsibility to sustain Westerville’s natural resources extends beyond local government and businesses, but also to residents and visitors. To learn how you can participate in source water protection efforts, visit www.westerville.org/water.

Water Quality Partner businesses will receive this window cling to display.

SHOW YOUR CITY PRIDE WITH A WESTERVILLE LICENSE PLATE The City of Westerville offers residents a way to show their civic pride with the purchase of a Westerville license plate.

The plate, designed to represent the Westerville community as a whole, debuted this spring and has shown proceeds of more than $900 in the first three months. A portion of these proceeds will go to the Westerville Parks Foundation, a nonprofit organization that assists the Westerville Parks and Recreation Department in funding projects and service programs.

Another portion will be set aside to fund anti-bullying initiatives for school-aged children.

The plate is available through the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) and can be purchased online at www.bmv.ohio.gov.

Proudly identify yourself as a friend of Westerville by purchasing the Westerville license plate for your car, truck and/or motorcycle.

Purchase your Westerville license plate at www.bmv.ohio.gov.

WESTERVILLE MAPS: Your Guides to Facts, Fun and Fitness The City of Westerville’s Geographic Information System (GIS) team helps to maintain maps that provide important information to City staff and residents such as street, zoning, street maintenance and the ever-popular city limit map.

The newest addition to the City’s map collection is the GoWesterville interactive mapping portal. This website offers features to see and interact with construction, roadway and parks project currently in development.

Designed first to keep motorists in-the-loop about improvement project construction around the City, this map has become a user-friendly tool to allow people to plan commutes and learn more about the exciting infrastructural improvement projects happening in the City. (See maps A and B)

A

In addition to mission-critical maps like GoWesterville, the GIS team maintains maps that make some of the most interesting City assets easier to find.

With more than 600 acres of parkland, 44 miles of trails and 92,800 square feet of sidewalks, Westerville provides many opportunities for residents and visitors to get out and explore. With so many places to visit and things to see, it can be overwhelming to take it all in.

The City Tree Viewer map, for example, was upgraded for fall 2017 to make it easier for people to pinpoint the best and brightest spots for autumnal foliage within City limits.

Maintained in partnership with the City’s Urban Forestry team, this tool also offers great educational opportunities by providing information about each tree maintained by the City of Westerville. (See map C) City maps can be used to plan fitness excursions as well.

The Westerville Parks and Recreation Trails map highlights the City’s award-winning paths system and provides mileage information for certain trail routes and loops. It is a useful tool for runners, walkers and bicyclists who want to get outside and explore Westerville. (See map D)

Emergency Communications Division

International Program Certification

Congratulations to the City of Westerville’s Emergency Communications Division for receiving the Association of Public Safety Communications Officials (APCO) International Agency Training Program Certification. Westerville was recognized at the 2017 APCO International Annual Conference & Exposition in Denver, Colorado in August to commemorate the certification of the training program. Communications Manager Holly Wayt and Communications Supervisor Mike Kusche accepted the award on behalf of Westerville’s 9-1-1 dispatchers and emergency communication professionals, including Communications Technician Christy Bailey who led the staff effort to pursue the certification.

APCO International is the oldest and largest public safety communications organization in the world. In order to receive the organization’s certification, a review must be conducted to ensure the program focuses on decision making and psychomotor skills.

The City’s certification will be valid for a period of three years.

HOTELS

A Sign of Forward Momentum in Westerville To look at the beautiful neighborhoods and charming Uptown District, one may get the impression that Westerville is a place where time stands still. Traveling four stories above the City will reveal a bigger picture— the landscape of Westerville is changing for the better with two new hotels.

The December opening of the four-story, 101-room boutique Aloft hotel (32 Heatherdown Dr.) marks a significant milestone in a concerted effort by the City to revitalize the South State Street corridor. This sleek, modern $20 million structure stands in what was once the most blighted corner of the City. Now the crowning jewel of the southern gateway, the hotel is well positioned to attract I-270 travelers and visitors to Uptown and Otterbein University.

Visitors have just a little while longer to wait for the opening of the City’s second, larger hotel. Scheduled to open this coming spring, the Marriott Renaissance (409 Altair Parkway), will serve the needs of the community to the north with 224 rooms and 15,000 sq. ft. of event and conference space. With comprehensive, modern amenities, the hotel will be a prime location for guests of the many high-profile companies in the area including J.P. Morgan Chase, Lancaster Colony, DHL, Stanley Black & Decker and ABB. Accommodating this growth is good for local businesses and ensures we can continue to sustain new businesses in the future. The opening of these hotels is a signal that Westerville’s economic development efforts are having great regional success. For more information, visit www.westerville.org.

Prepare Your Bike This Winter for Spring Riding PART 1

Whether you receive a new bike this holiday season or just preparing for spring riding, here are some tips to get both you and your bike ready to ride.

GIVE YOUR BIKE A GOOD WASHING. This will remove excess oils and grime from a new bike, or dirt and mud from your current bike.

FILL THE TIRES. Whether it’s new or old, your tires can lose air over time and when not in use. Use a quality air pump and follow the manufacturer's guidelines on recommended tire pressure level.

CHECK THE SPOKES FOR ANY WARPING. Pick the bike up on one side and spin the tire. If the tire wobbles as it spins, you may need to have your spokes tightened.

CHECK YOUR BRAKES: they are the only things stopping you once in motion. A quality inspection includes your brake levers and pads. Pull on the levers to make sure the pads engage the wheel equally. If they do not stick, it may be time for new brakes or pads.

CHECK THE CHAIN TENSION. Put pressure on the top of the chain, if it moves more than a quarter to a half-inch, your chain may be too loose. Less than that and it may be too tight.

LUBRICATE WHERE NEEDED. Over time and with use, your chain and gears will wear away any lubricants. Use a good bicycle lubricant to keep these features working well.

CHECK YOUR SAFETY GEAR or install them if you don’t already have them. This includes reflectors and front and rear lights. Did you know Westerville requires a light on your bike when riding at night?

REVIEW ALL SAFETY GUIDELINES AND BIKING LAWS. Bike law HB 154, which passed in December 2016 and took effect this past spring, makes Ohio one of more than half of the states to put in place a three-foot passing law for bicyclists.

And don’t forget to check the security of child carriers, baskets or other attached items. These pose a hazard to both you and other riders should they loosen or fall off during your ride.

A New Look for a New Year 2018 Community Recreation Guide to Debut Organizational Updates

This spring there will be something new in store for the Westerville Community Recreation Guide. The Guide is your premier resource for information about City announcements, project updates, community events and Parks and Recreation facilities and quarterly class schedules. Earlier this year, we added the full Prime Time (older adult) class schedule and an enhanced Index. With information included in the Guide ever-expanding, it’s a good time to refresh its layout.

Spring updates to the Table of Contents and class section of the guide will include:

New this spring, our readers can expect: A new organization of classes by age and interest, providing a clearer path to navigate where you want to go.

A user-friendly Table of Contents A better transition between sections Currently organized in five categories: Aquatics/ Swim Lessons, Continuous Learning, Creative Arts, Healthy Active Lifestyle and Prime Time, classes were specific to their section. The new method will be a simplified version with direct section headers for readers to pinpoint exactly what they are looking for in a more timely fashion.

“Time is always a priority, so we aimed to find a better way to help you find exactly what you want in classes and programs,” said Randy Auler, Parks & Recreation Director. “This update will provide the ease and ability to quickly find what you need without filtering through classes that may not be of interest at that moment.”

CHOOSING THE RIGHT

HOLIDAY TREE

Tree Talk articles are presented by the Urban Forestry Division.

Holiday trees, like people, come in many sizes and varieties. When you visit a retail tree lot or farm, you should select a tree that is not only fresh and green, but suited to your needs and space. Thus the size, shape and type of tree are all important.

Before shopping for a tree, determine the size the best fits your living space by answering the following questions: • Where will your tree best fit?

• What is the height and width of the space?

• Have you allowed room for the stand and tree topper?

• Don’t forget the measuring tape when you are ready to purchase your tree.

Now that you have your location and dimensions ready, you need to decide the type of tree.

There are many options but they are primarily broken down as: Pines, Spruce or Fir. • Pines have longer needles that grow in clusters • Fir needles are flat and won’t roll easily between your fingers • Spruce needles are triangular and will roll easily between your fingers.

Spruce needles are stout and will poke more than Pine or Fir. Another important part of holiday tree selection is freshness. Generally, speaking, fresher trees lose fewer needles. Fresh Pine or Fir needles will bend well without breaking, this doesn’t work with Spruce because the needles are stout. You should also bump the base of the tree hard on the ground. A fresh tree should only drop some needles from the inner part of the tree. A way to avoid the wonder of if your tree is fresh is to cut your own tree at a tree farm.

When you get your holiday tree home, keep it fresh with daily watering to help prevent drying and excessive needle drop. It is important to keep the cut end submerged at all times. Also, be sure to keep your tree away from heat sources and close duct vents near the tree to prevent premature drying. Learn more about Urban Forestry in Westerville at www.westerville.org/urbanforestry.

Don’t Forget: After the holiday, the City of Westerville's refuse and recycling service (Rumpke) will pick up live trees with normal yard waste collection. Trees must be cut into four foot (or less) sections with branches tied closer to the base using a biodegradable material such as string or twine. They also need to be free of any decorations, tinsel and plastic tree bags.

CITY POLICY FOR SNOW REMOVAL SNOW EMERGENCY If more than three inches fall, a snow emergency automatically goes into effect and cars parked on streets must be moved or they will be towed. Updates to snow emergency declarations will be posted to the City website (www. westerville.org). However, a snow emergency may occur in the middle of the night, and updates may be delayed.

In that case, please be mindful of the weather forecast for our region and park your car off the street if more than three inches is forecasted overnight.

SNOW SHOVELING Residents and businesses are responsible for clearing their walkways. The City recommends shoveling snow away from the street so that snow is less likely to get pushed back onto the driveway or sidewalk by a passing snowplow. If snow must be shoveled out to the road, it should be piled to the right side of the driveway (on two-way streets).This allows snowplows to reach the snow pile after it passes the driveway.

SNOW REMOVAL PRIORITIES Emergency travel for fire, emergency medical and police personnel is the first snow removal priority. Arterial and secondary streets are cleared first. The second priority is to clear street around schools and to facilitate traffic moving in and out of the City, which also impacts first- and second-tier roads. The third priority is to clear subdivisions.

AQUATICS WATER AEROBICS

DIVE IN TO

HIGH SCHOOL SWIM SEASON The first Friday in November signals the start of the winter season for indoor high school sports in Westerville.

Every year the City of Westerville Parks and Recreation Department partners with Westerville City Schools providing space for youth sports and leisure. The schools to provide gymnasium space for Parks and Recreation basketball leagues and theatre programs while the Westerville Community Center Watering Hole is home to high school swim and dive teams. The shared-use agreement has been in effect since the Community Center opened, and has allowed swimmers a place to develop their athletic skills, be part of a team, and learn about character along the way.

High school swim team practice is scheduled at the Westerville Parks and Recreation Watering Hole Monday through Saturday. The facility also plays host to swim meets Friday evenings and some Saturdays, December through February. The Watering Hole proudly sponsors the annual “Duel in Westerville,” which is a day of competition among all three Westerville high schools.

26

AQUATICS “The returning athletes excitement each year to start up and see how much better their times are and diving is keeps me coming back,” said Coach Ron Staab, Westerville Central High School coach since 2003.

Staab says he is always looking to the future and watching students as they transition from middle school to high school. “I enjoy seeing the incoming new athletes and their first time trial and then the progression they have during the year,” Staab said. And he is not alone. Swimming is a family sport for the Staabs, including his wife Linda and son Austin, who also help coach Central.

Westerville Parks and Recreation appreciates the partnership with Westerville City Schools and wishes each high school swim and dive team good luck this upcoming season.

CODING FOR KIDS: LEARNING A NEW LANGUAGE As technology continues to dominate the language of our society, the use and understanding of basic computer programming skills is in high demand. The work a computer does behind the scenes is nothing more than a transistor made up of a unique combination of ones and zeros called binary code. Modern computers contain millions, even billions, of transistors, which means an incredibly large number of combinations.

Creating a computer program by typing billions of ones and zeros could take a lifetime to write. This is where a coding (programming) language comes in handy. A coding language is a set of syntax rules that define how binary code should be written and formatted. Learning to code will give you the ability to build simple websites and games, as well as computer software.

CONTINUOUS LEARNING WHY IS CODING IS IMPORTANT? • Coding drives innovation so kids’ ideas can come to life.

•

Coding allows kids to be creative in an atmosphere in which they are comfortable.

•

Coding builds confidence; it has an immediate result when done correctly, building kids up to continue the process.

•

Coding is best learned early, becoming a second language to those who learn.

•

Coding translates to success in many other areas because it is used in all businesses.

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.
