Former SWAT leader named GHPD chief

By ALAN FROMAN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Grandview Heights City Council confirmed Mayor Ray DeGraw’s appointment of David R. Wood as the city’s new chief of police at its meeting May 2.

Wood replaces Rollin Kiser, who retired March 31.

Wood recently retired from 33 years with the Columbus Division of Police,

where he was on the SWAT team for 29 years.

After serving in such positions as scout, rifleman, point man, sniper and gasman on the team, Wood was promoted to sergeant in 1990 and began a stint as team leader in October 1992.

In 1995, he was named as lieutenant in charge of the SWAT. Section, Hostage Negotiation Team and the K-9 unit.

Wood was one of the potential candidates for the chief position he was

most interested in talking to, DeGraw told council.

“I think he’ll bring a good management style” to Grandview along with the right personality for the position, he said.

“He’s coming from a high-stress background with a relaxed personality,” DeGraw said.

A graduate of Bishop Watterson High School, Wood holds a bachelor of science degree in business administration

from Franklin University and a master’s graduate certificate in human resources from Central Michigan University.

Wood’s first day as chief was May 3.

In other business, council held first reading of an ordinance to approve a development agreement with Capital Wholesale Drug Company and G.G.D. Investment, Ltd., to provide for alternative parking solutions if construction

at the Grandview Yard project disrupts the current parking setup.

Capital is located at 873 Williams Ave., near the intersection of Williams and Higgs Avenue. It is expanding its wholesale pharmaceutical sales business within its current building and the adjacent building at 897-899 Higgs.

G.G.D., which is under similar ownership with Capital, owns the properties See COUNCIL, page A2

City to hold Spring Clean Up May 10-13

By ALAN FROMAN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

It’s spring cleaning time, and the city of Grandview Heights is again offering residents an easy way to dispose of appliances and other large items from their home, yard or garage.

The city of Grandview Heights will hold its annual Spring Clean Up Week May 1013.

Grandview and Marble Cliff residents will be able to put out bulk items for collection on their regular trash collection day only, street supervisor Steve McKnight said.

“If you put something out the day after your regular collection day, it won’t be picked up,” he said.

Residents with alley service should place their items near the alley. Residents without alley pick-up service should put their

items at the curb.

“We don’t accept any construction debris or hazardous materials of any kind,” McKnight said. “That’s a common problem we have.”

Small loose items should be placed inside containers for easier disposal.

Trash and metal items should be separated, as each is placed on a different truck.

For more information, call the service department at 488-4728.

The Grandview Heights City School District Food Service Department and Family and Civic Engagement Team are conducting a food service and nutrition survey.

“We want to see what parents in the community are looking for in our lunch program,” food service director Carol Hamilton said. “We want to get their ideas of how we can improve our program.”

The district is also looking for input from parents as it works to meet the mandates regarding healthier menu options for students set by Senate Bill 210, she said.

The survey is being conducted through May 15. It includes questions specific to each building.

It can be accessed through a link on the district website, www.grandviewschools.org.

Copies are also available in the schools’ main offices.

“We’re always looking at what we can do to improve our lunch program,” Hamilton said.

The district has taken a number of steps already to make its school lunches healthier, she said.

“We’re giving our students healthier options,” Hamilton said.

“We’re using less fat, less bread

and offering more fruits and vegetables and whole grains.”

French fries are now served only once a month and baked potatoes and tater tots are each served twice monthly.

Except for the Donatos pizza served at the middle school, all of the pizza offered for lunch is made of whole grain, she said.

“I don’t think the kids are aware of it,” Hamilton said. “If you don’t tell them it’s a whole grain pizza, they just go on their merry way. What they don’t know will make them healthier.”

One of the goals of the survey is to try to find out what adjustments can be made to the menus to increase the number of students who buy rather than bring their lunches, she said.

The food service department is self-supporting, so it relies on the income it earns from students purchasing lunch, Hamilton said.

High school students raise funds, awareness for homeless issue

By ALAN FROMAN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

A group of Grandview Heights High School students held a sleepover for a cause Friday night.

The students participated in the national Solidarity Sleepout in the high school gym, an event designed to raise awareness of and funds for homeless young people.

More than 20 students and chaperones participated in the sleepout, which lasted from 9 p.m. to 7 a.m. The participants spent the night in sleeping bags or blankets on the hard gym floor, simulating the difficult sleeping arrangements the homeless suffer each night.

The project supports Covenant House, a provider of services to homeless and runaway youth throughout the United States.

The Grandview effort was spearheaded by Key Club vice president Rachel Metzler, who said she was inspired to act after hearing a presentation last year by a representative of Covenant House.

“He came for a talk at the school and when he gave the numbers — that two million kids

will experience homelessness or hard times this year, including 35,000 in Ohio — it had a big impact on me,” Metzler said.

“That’s a pretty crazy number,” she said.

“In Grandview, we don’t have a high number of people living in poverty, but it’s happening so close to us.”

Metzler said she thought it was important to “plant the seed” and help raise awareness among her school mates about the problem of homelessness.

Prior to Friday’s event, the participating students raised about $380 online for Covenant House and also collected cash donations that are still being turned in and tabulated, she said.

The students were doing more than just sleeping Friday night, Metzler said.

The evening included discussions of homelessness, its causes and what can be done to help solve the problem, she said.

Most students don’t think about the issue of homelessness, Metzler said. “I think unless they are personally affected by it, it’s not something they think about. Fortunately, most Grandview students aren’t affected by it.

“I’ve helped out with some programs to

Upper Arlington

Rainy spring delays work on Lane Avenue

By GARY BUDZAK ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The American Electric Power underground electric utility line installation project on Lane Avenue was expected to reach Upper Arlington this week, weather permitting.

“They did end up being delayed a bit by weather,” said city spokeswoman Emma Speight on April 29. “From what I understand, they believe they will be close to or at the North Star intersection by May 4 or 5.”

The orange barrels are out along Lane Avenue, but record rainfall in April put a damper on the project’s scheduled April 25 resumption within Arlington.

“The contractor and AEP have adjusted the schedule several times, but now they seem to be moving along pretty well,” said Bob Darragh, project manager for CT Consultants, Inc., which will inspect the work of Cuny Construction and Excavating.

Trenching work along the southernmost lane will be done, with installation of the electric and fiber optic cable conduit to follow along the entire length of Lane Avenue. Next year, the roadway will be resurfaced.

The project was postponed within UA shortly after it began in mid-January.

The 138,000-volt transmission line is being installed along 6.08 miles from AEP’s Roberts Sta-

tion to OSU Station to prevent overloads and handle future growth in the Ohio State University and greater Columbus areas.

The route includes boring a tunnel under the Scioto River.

The $32 million project is expected to be completed this December.

“We’re still on target to finish construction this year,” said AEP Ohio spokeswoman Vikki Michalski, but “we don’t know with weather how long anybody is going to be in a particular location.”

Darragh said that the project entails having 2,000 feet of wire on 14-foot spools snaked through pipes that are in concrete vaults the size of a Greyhound bus, and then buried under the roadway.

“It’ll leave a scar down the center of the street,” Darragh said.

“The eastbound lane is where the cable is installed. It’s backfilled with a mixture that will prevent any voids from being left in the pavement, and then they’ll cap it with concrete. Then they’ll come back and overlay that with asphalt.”

help those in poverty before, but until I heard (the Covenant House representative) speak, I never thought about young people and what if I was affected by it,” Metzler said. “I am very fortunate and we should be grateful for our good fortune and think about those who aren’t as lucky.”

The sleepout event “is a great opportunity for teens in our community to show their support for people who are homeless,” Key Club secretary Elaina Vimmerstedt said.

The issue has become even more important during the recent economic hard times, she said.

In many ways, Grandview is isolated from the problem of poverty, Vimmerstedt said.

“As a small community, we need to be more aware of a problem that is just 10 minutes away,” she said.

The Solidarity Sleepout is just one of many charitable projects the Key Club conducts during the school year, co-adviser Carmen Mendoza said.

“I’m really proud of these kids because they come up with the ideas themselves and do such a great job carrying them out,” she said.

LUNCHES COUNCIL Continued from page A1 A switch to a four-week menu rotation has helped to boost the level of participation, she said.

“It helps when they know when their favorite items are going to be served,” Hamilton said.

“If they like spaghetti and they know it’s going to be served on the second Thursday of the month, they’ll be more likely to buy it.”

Students are always eager to give their feedback about the school lunches, she said.

Hamilton said that as she visits the elementary and middle school lunchrooms she observes what items are included in the lunches students bring from home to try to get an idea of what could be added to the school’s menu.

The survey can be a valuable tool to helpmprove that menu, she said.

“We encourage parents to take the survey and give us their input,” Hamilton said.

“We’d really like to know what they think.” www.ThisWeekNews.com

Continued from page A1 and leases them to Capital.

The properties are now served by 45 head-in parking spaces along the west side of the Higgs Avenue right of way and eight head-in spaces along the south side of the Williams Avenue right of way.

Under the proposed agreement, the city would assure that if the parking spaces are eliminated or otherwise unavailable because of construction or other reasons, it will make available, without cost, the same number of spaces located within 100 feet of the perimeter of the properties.

If necessary, pedestrian crossings would be constructed to allow walking access to the properties from the new spaces.

Capital would agree to continue its operations on the property for at least three years from the effective date of the agreement.

The agreement states that during that period, the company “shall use its best efforts” to make sure its combined taxable net income and payroll is at or above the levels of the last three years.

The ordinance was assigned to council’s economic development committee. afroman@thisweeknews.com

Grandview PTO holding staff appreciation weeks

By ALAN FROMAN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Grandview PTO is culminating its monthly program to express its gratitude to the staff at Edison Intermediate/Middle School and Stevenson Elementary with Staff Appreciation Week.

A different activity is being held for staff members each day during each school’s own appreciation week. Edison is holding its celebration this week and at Stevenson festivities are scheduled for next week.

“We think it’s important to show how grateful we are for the job teachers and school staff do for our children,” said Krissy Dobies, one of five co-chairs of the Edison PTO’s staff appreciation committee.

“During the school year, they are taking care and educating our children every day,” Dobies said. “They do so much for our children.”

This week’s celebration at Edi-

son kicked off Monday with a cookie contest. On Tuesday, staff members received a PTO funded gift. A continental breakfast was planned for Wednesday and Thursday will feature a Cinco de Mayo theme.

At both Edison and Stevenson, the week concludes on Friday with the annual boxed lunch event.

“Our teachers really love the boxed lunch project,” Dobies said.

During lunch on Friday, staff members will stop by a PTO members home, where they will be able to select from a variety of specially designed boxed lunches, each with a different theme.

“Whatever captures their attention and fancy, they can choose,” Dobies said.

The ideas parents come up with for the boxed lunches they prepare run the gamut, she said.

“It can be almost anything,” Dobies said. “We always try to have some OSU-themed boxes,

but it might also be related to gardening, golfing or be a nice fishing box or tote bag design.

“It’s always fun to see the creative boxed lunches our parents come up with,” she said.

The monthly staff appreciation events also involve different themes, Dobies said.

Last month, Edison’s event was held on Earth Day, April 22, and parents and students were asked to donate seeds, decorated pots or plants and flowers to recognize the school staff.

Although Staff Appreciation Week is the climax of the year’s efforts to recognize staff members, it won’t be the last effort.

The PTO also provides lunch to staff members as they wrap up their year of service on the day after students’ last day in June, Dobies said.

“I’ve been involved in this effort for five years, including the first four at the elementary school,” she said. “It’s just a nice way to show our appreciation to a staff that really deserves it.”

Phillip and Nancy Skeele and their son Bradley were early residents of Marble Cliff, with a home at 1492 Roxbury Road. Bradley was born in 1901. His memoirs about life in Grandview and Marble Cliff prior to World War I are featured on the GHMCHS web page under the “Grandview Reminiscences” link. Bradley’s son, Bob, of LaConner, Wash., recently donated to the historical society the three, one-hundred-year-old books shown here. The two smallest volumes on the left, “The Humpty Dumpty Elephant Book” and “Cinderella and the Sleeping Beauty” were Bradley’s Christmas gifts in 1905. “The Perfect Tribute” was a gift from Bradley to his mother, and is a 1910 edition of the poignant story of Lincoln drafting the Gettysburg address and his relationship with a dying Confederate drummer boy in a Union hospital. The latter is timely, given that this year marks the 150th anniversary of the start of the Civil War.

Cuco’s Taqueria serves up unbeatable values Because today is Cinco de Mayo, why not beat the burrito-buzzsawing crowds by igniting your fiesta well before noon?

I’m not talking about drinking all day long (though I’m not ruling it out, either), I’m suggesting you jump-start your morning with a zesty and stunningly cheap Mexican breakfast at Cuco’s.

Most people know Cuco’s as one of the best full-service Mexican restaurants

in Columbus, and it is certainly that. But the family- and party-friendly Cuco’s serves up some unbeatable first-meal values, too.

I’ll admit at first it felt a bit odd settling into a roomy booth in the modest and amusingly Mexi-kitschy Cuco’s at 9 a.m. I’m so used to digging into their fresh chips and salsa and heck-yeah margaritas (the Original, on the rocks and with half the sugar is my local benchmark)

By Jodi Miller/ThisWeek that lurking over eggs and diner-style coffee

(sometimes flavored with cinnamon) almost seemed surreal.

So I ordered a Vampiro cocktail to get my mind right. Made with tequila, grapefruit soda and the bracing tequila chaser called sangrita, it tastes entertainingly citrusy, spicy, sweet and tart. Anyway, sucking on that Vampiro proved to be an inspired idea.

So did ordering the smorgasbord-like El Tapatio platter ($6.25). Kinda like breakfast, lunch and dinner all on a single huge plate, it’s a phenomenal deal. I got three eggs over greasy; a generous mound of addictive Mexican hash (crispy fried potato cubes blended with lots of properly fat-rendered and zingy chorizo); two terrific barbacoa tacos fashioned with soft corn tortillas wrapped around spicy, juicy and super-tender beef; and rich refried beans laced with melted cheese.

Equally giddy-making in variety and size and likewise providing killer value is the hog-out ensemble called Nuevo

after the eggs in the previous dish (well, plus rice and beans — don’t think you’re getting off that easy here) by ordering the good Huevos Rancheros ($5.25).

In general, Chilaquiles ($5) is a clever Mexican leftovers meal made by stewing yesterday’s tortillas with condiments and other flavor enhancers. At Cuco’s, this translated into a piquant, cooked salsa verde playing off of a fresh tomato pico de gallo plus three eggs (of course), cheese and sides of those irresistible breakfast potatoes and refried beans.

For something a little more unusual, but still nice, try the Oaxaqeña ($6.75).

This was three ample enchiladas crammed with scrambled eggs and spuds wholly slathered in a stout black bean sauce.

Like all of the breakfasts at Cuco’s, it’s an incredibly generous serving of food and flavor for a mere pittance of pesos.

Amaneser ($7).

The roll call on that one went like this: • Three fried eggs (because three’s better than two, right?) enticingly simmered in a zippy ranchero sauce then winningly plopped atop fried corn tortillas • Soupy, full-flavored black beans • What the menu calls bacon or sausage but happily turned out to be more of that well-done chorizo • Two big and very nice pancakes (dessert’s too often neglected in the morning, don’t you think?) that were light, had attractively crisp exteriors, were pleasantly flavored with vanilla and sprinkled with powdered sugar.

Yeah, that’s a lot of food. For a more Check out the new Columbus-area dinmodest repast, you could just call it quits ing guide at www.ColumbusCrave.com

Chefs to converge on Audubon Center for fourth Taste event Kevin Caskey can’t wait to show off his chops next week at the fourth annual Taste of Dine Originals.

The chef and owner of Skillet in Schumacher Place will serve raspberry panna cotta with rhubarb and lemon verbena, along with some other creations.

Caskey is among 50 chefs participating in the fourth annual event, to be held May 12 at the Grange Insurance Audubon Center, 505 W. Whittier St. He said he hasn’t participated for two years and is eager to get back.

“It’s good exposure for our group as a whole,” he said. “We’re all independently owned restaurants, and we’re a diverse group.

And in one night you can taste not only the food offerings but understand the concept and thoughts that went into the development of the restaurants that make up our group.”

The gala will be held from 6 to 9 p.m. Tickets are $100 and can be purchased at www.dineoriginalscolumbus.com. Some tickets might be available on the day of the event and may be purchased at the door.

Proceeds benefit Dine Originals Columbus and the Buckeye Ranch, which provides mentalhealth treatment and alcohol and drug services for children with behavioral or psychological and substance-abuse disorders.

“We’re blessed to be part of the event for four years,” said Michelle Aro, development coordinator at the Buckeye Ranch. “The partnership we’ve built with the

The Audubon Center, on the Whittier Peninsula, provides a modern backdrop with attractive surroundings, she said.

“We thought it really complemented our messaging and mission because they are green and our members have that commonality,” Moore said. “It’s such a beautiful oasis in downtown Columbus that people don’t know about. So it’s fun for us to introduce that venue to a whole new crowd.

In addition to food, more than 30 vineyards will be represented, as well as local breweries and micro distilleries. One of those is Watershed Distillery, just outside Grandview Heights.

“We are excited to be a part of it,” Greg Lehman, co-founder of

the company, said of the celebration. “I think it’s a good way for us to be involved locally.”

Cordell aiming to regain state title For an athlete who didn’t like running when she started competitively at age 9, Taneisha Cordell has developed into an elite competitor.

The New Albany High School senior, who will run track at the University of Miami (Fla.) beginning next year, has the fastest area time to this point in the season in both the 400 LARRY meters and her specialty, LARSON the 800. She had the fourth-fastest time in the country in the 800 in the winter indoor season and, after finishing fourth in the Division I state meet as a freshman, she won the 800 as a sophomore at Reynoldsburg before transferring to New Albany. Cordell also won the 800 at the USA Track & Field national meet last summer in Sacramento, Calif.

Talk about credentials.

“My mom got me into running when I was in elementary Caitlyn Sarich of Grandview Heights clears the bar on a high jump attempt during the Bobcat Booster Invitational on April 29. school and I really wasn’t very good and I was a basketball girl so I wasn’t even really interested,” Cordell said. “Through lots of hard work and dedication and lots of support from my teammates, my family and my coaches, Denny Hammond at Reynoldsburg and Otis Winston here at New Albany, I have been fortunate to be successful. Like lots of athletes, I owe so much to so many people and right now I owe so much to coach Winston.

He has definitely been a major factor in my life and we have a great relationship.”

Track teams win Booster Invitational sions. She beat the record of 11:13.26 set in 1998 by Alli Grace.

“Alli Grace is a professional runner for the most part, so for Hannah to beat her record was great,” Schoch said of the 1998 Grandview graduate who ran at the University of Kentucky and competed in the 2008 Olympic trials in the 10,000 meters. “It was really an impressive time.”

Sarah Meier set the meet record in the 300 hurdles in 46.38. She also won the 100 hurdles in 15.86.

Other winners for the girls team were Jordan Fitzgerald in the 400 (1:03.56) and Emma Haase in the pole vault (9 feet).

Joe Trapp won the 100 (11.28), 200 (22.91) and 400 (53.55) in the boys meet. Luke Evans won the 3,200 (10:24.19).

“Joe Trapp is someone who has really improved and improved every year,” Schoch said. “It’s nice to see someone who works so hard rewarded with a meet like that. All three races were great times for him. It was fun to watch.”

The Bobcats will compete on Friday, May 6, in the Friday Night at Grandview Heights event before competing in the MSL-Cardinal Division meet, which begins Tuesday, May 10, at Berne Union.

The league finals are May 13 at Berne Union.

“The boys meet is pretty wide open. Berne Union, Liberty Union, Licking Heights and us all have good teams. It should be an exciting meet.”

Last season, the girls team scored 159 points to win its second consecutive league title, outdistancing runner-up Fisher Catholic (108). The boys team finished fourth (82.5) behind champion Berne Union (151).

•The baseball team opens the Division III district tournament on Tuesday, May 10, at Worthington Christian. The winner will play May 12 at second-seeded Fredericktown, which had a bye in the first round.

“We were supposed to play Worthington Christian (on April 28) but had to make up a league game (with Berne Union),” coach Brian Thomas said. “If we had a better record we might have had a better draw, but just when we started to play better we had rain wipe us out for more than a week. We needed to keep playing those games.”

The Bobcats beat Harvest Prep 13-2 on April 26 and Berne Union 7-5 on April 27 in MSLCardinal games.

“With the way A.J. Findlay has been pitching and the way we have been playing defense, I’m comfortable playing anyone right now,” Thomas said. “I thought that before the weekand-a-half hiatus that we had, we were playing better than we had been at any time in the two seasons that I have been here.”

Zoombezi Bay adds two slides

By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

An anaconda and python will be added to Zoombezi Bay’s lineup of tides, rapids and twisters.

Two new serpentine slides — Anaconda Falls and the Python Plunge — will snake into Zoombezi Bay when the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium water park opens later this month. “Anaconda Falls is unique and different from anything we have in Zoombezi Bay,� said John Gannon, Zoombezi Bay senior vice president.

Slide-side research in Florida and Alabama went into picking the two new water rides that will serve as the first major additions to the four-year-old park. “That was a nice day at work.

We tested waterslides. Its fun, but it’s a necessary experience because you want something that will be exciting and invigorating,� Gannon said. “We rode slides and picked the best ones.�

Anaconda Falls starts in an enclosed “serpentine slide,� Gan-

non said. “You don’t know if you’re shifting left or right, up or down. You go through the slide and then burst into sunlight and you immediately drop down 30 feet on a steep hill and that carries you up a 30-foot incline that looks like a skateboard ramp.�

After a few harrowing moments on the ramp — “There’s no lip, it looks like you could go over the side, but physics won’t allow it,� Gannon said — the riders start traveling downhill backwards and eventually land in the splash pool.

The Python Plunge uses the same entry tower and starts with a downhill plunge before shooting uphill then down again. “It’s a watercoaster. It’s like a rollercoaster because you’re going uphill,� Gannon said. “This is the first one at Zoombezi Bay.�

Anaconda Falls is like six other slides across the country, but according to Gannon, the Python Plunge is an original. “It’s a combination of two waterslides,� he said. “The Python Plunge doesn’t exist anywhere

else.�

Along with offering something new for Zoombezi Bay visitors, Gannon said the new slides are working toward a shorter time in ride lines. “We’re excited to reduce line length at other slides,� he said. “The new slides have good capacity. A lot of people will be able to ride these in an hour’s time.�

Visitors can get a crack at the new slides and other water rides when Zoombezi Bay opens its doors at 10:30 a.m. May 21.

Gannon said visitors can win free tickets to the season openers from 10:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. May 21 and 22 at Kroger by purchasing a Pepsi product.

Admission to Zoombezi Bay is $25 for children ages 2 to 8 and seniors aged 60 and over, and $33 for ages 10 and up. Admission also includes access to the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium.

Season passes and reduced rates for zoo members are also available.
