Russell’s Citizens Park District Levy Withdrawn From Ballot By Ann Wishart ann@geaugamapleleaf.com
The Russell Township Citizens Park District commissioners encountered a steep learning curve in its efforts to become a fiscally correct government entity. Although the district has a balance of less than $6,000 showing in its budget, the board cannot spend any money until their accounting practices and annual budget submittal are approved by the Geauga County auditor. They also have to show a need for the funds a levy would yield — about $267,000 a year — before See Levy • Page 6

The Russell Township Citizens Park District commissioners met at Geauga West Public Library at noon July 24. They voted to withdraw the district’s 1-mill levy from the November ballot. Commissioners are, from left, Stephanie Snevel, Perry Howard and Roy Podojil.

they can place a 1-mill levy on the November ballot At a special board meeting July 24, the three-commissioner board voted to withdraw its 1-mill levy from the ballot, which means the citizens park district will not be able to afford to purchase property for township parks. Commissioner Perry Howland said he met recently with county Auditor Chuck Walder and was told the district needed to create a computer-generated spread sheet detailing its last two years of revenue and expenditures and its projected balances for the next year. “We can’t write checks until we are compliant,” he told fellow commissioners Roy Podojil and Stephanie Snevel. The three approved a budget that shows the park board had no funds in 2017, and revenues of $3,621 from a grant from Russell Township Trustees in 2018 with expenditures of $425 for administrative costs. In 2019, the district received $2,328 in local government funds and spent $867 for administration, leaving a balance of $4,657. The spreadsheet shows an estimated cash balance of $5,707 by the end of 2020. Howland said he would deliver the approved budget to the auditor that afternoon, and would attend an auditor’s budget meeting Aug. 5. The next step will be to get the budget approved Aug. 19 by the county budget commission, he said. But, even if the levy passed in November, the yield would not be available to the board because the district doesn’t have a plan to spend it, Howland said. The commissioners had completed and sent to the Geauga County Board of Elections all the necessary forms to place the levy on the ballot. Under the circumstances, Howland recommended commissioners withdraw the levy until they are clear on all the budget requirements. “When that’s okay, we can ask again,” he said. Snevel, who is new to the board, asked what would happen to the funds if the levy passed and the board couldn’t use the money. “They won’t hold it,” Podojil said, adding the county would take the millage off the tax
“It breaks my heart to do this, but we have no choice.” – Roy Podojil duplicate and put the funds back in the general fund. “We have to retract our formal request for a levy,” he said. All three signed a letter to the board of elections asking for the levy to be withdrawn. “Now we’re back to the starting point,” Podojil said. “This time, we’ll start much earlier. It breaks my heart to do this, but we have no choice.” Howland said he would find out if there is a cost associated with running the levy on the primary election ballot in May 2020. In an email, Walder said he explained the budget requirements to Howland. “During the meeting, we recommended that the board have a formal forward plan in place to adequately demonstrate their need for levy revenue,” he wrote. “Ohio law requires government entities to certify resources prior to appropriating and expending funds.” His office had not received the district’s certification of its beginning balance in 2019 so they could review its budget submission, Walder said. “As a new government entity, the 511 (park district) is learning the requirements of government accounting,” he said. “I believe the 511 board’s decision, to temporarily delay their levy until they get their fiscal house in order, is well considered and appropriate.” The citizens park district was created by a township referendum vote in November 2017 and township trustees appointed park commissioners. The 1545 township park board that currently controls more than 400 acres of township parkland, dates back to 1984. Ohio Revised Code Chapter 1545 put the county probate judge in charge of appointing members. Ten years later, ORC Chapter 511 was passed, allowing township trustees to appoint park boards to control township park districts. Both boards placed levies on the 2018 ballot and both failed. Podojil’s press release reads: “The Russell Township Board of Commissioners of the Russell Township Citizens Park District 511 Board has decided to withdraw its 1-mill levy from the Nov. 5, 2019 Russell Township ballot. The board is working with the county auditor’s office to become compliant with its budget and desires to be completely transparent with the voters before asking the voters to support a levy.”

Better Bodies – MaxStrength Fitness
Lou Joseph, president and CEO of Brewer-Garrett Company in Middleburg Heights, has relied on Jeff Tomaszewski’s guidance and the proprietary MaxStrength Fitness model to achieve maximum results since 2008.
40 Minutes to Fitness The exclusive MaxStrength Fitness system promises maximum results in a minimum amount of time.
I
n a Seinfeld episode, George Costanza’s post workout sweating attracted suspicion during an executive meeting in which his boss discussed a rash of in-house theft. Had George known about MaxStrength Fitness, he could have experienced his intense but efficient, 20-minute conditioning session, and returned to the office as dry as a bone, suggests Jeff Tomaszewski, owner of the exclusive workout system with a new location in Willoughby. “The MaxStrength system is a unique workout that uses special resistance machines that provide optimum resistance training for muscle strength, cardiovascular conditioning and overall health and wellness,” Jeff insists. And, he adds, the whole experience is efficient, professional and quiet. That means there is no obnoxious loud music playing, ear-popping grunting and shouting and no sweaty gym rats trying to impress the ladies. In fact, about the only noise you’ll hear is the sound of your certified personal trainer—professionally dressed in a shirt and tie—encouraging you toward your goals. “We take a very clinical and businesslike approach to getting fit and staying fit in the safest possible manner,” Jeff emphasizes. “That’s why we’re especially attractive to high-level business professionals and active supermoms. Our program is 20 minutes, twice a week, so our clients
can quickly get back to their work, their families and their busy lives.” MaxStrength, Jeff assures, is cool—and not only in the Fonzi kind of way. “We keep the training room at 65 degrees,” he says. “Contrary to most workout protocols, we want to keep the body cool during the exercises. Like a car engine that is overheated, the body loses efficiency when it gets too hot, so we want to dissipate heat very quickly. If you start to sweat we crank up a fan to cool you off. That’s why our clients can go straight to work without showering after a workout.” The MaxStrength exercise machines are specially designed to provide maximum resistance to make muscles work hard, but without dangerous jerking that can create or exacerbate joint injuries. “Our job is to fix people, not break them,” Jeff says. “Our machines are highly efficient with very low friction. With a slow, constant tension,
you lift your weight for 10 seconds and lower it for 10 seconds. It looks easy until you try it.” Each client moves from machine to machine according to his or her customized fitness plan. “Every client starts with an hour-long complimentary initial consultation where we review their medical and family history, look into their current health condition and discuss their goals,” Jeff says. “We also talk about proper diet and nutrition. Then we do a demo workout.” MaxStrength is perfectly geared toward business professionals like Lou Joseph, president and CEO of the Brewer-Garrett Company, of Middleburg Heights. “I have been in the gym my entire life and found MaxStrength training to be an excellent way to maximize effort in the least amount of time with positive results,” Lou says. Typical clients are high achievers in their 50s and up who are starved for time but don’t want to keep putting their own health on the back burner, Jeff says. MaxStrength’s success has spawned some lite competition, he adds. “Others have imitated our 20 minutes, twice a week concept, but they don’t have the same proprietary equipment and temperature-controlled distraction-free environment,” Jeff says. “The giveaway is that they emphasize affordability while we emphasize results.” To find out how your professional, efficient workout can result in a happier, healthier lifestyle, you can schedule your complimentary consultation with MaxStrength Fitness, at 4212 SR 306, Suite 120, in Willoughby. You can find more information, including client testimonials, by visiting MaxStrengthFitness.com, or you can call 440-226-8080.
Our program is 20 minutes, twice a week, so our clients can quickly get back to their work, families, and their busy lives.

West Geauga Schools West G Summer Projects
Summer is a busy time at West Geauga Schools. Custodians and maintenance staff take this time to clean buildings and make repairs that are unable to be done while students are in the building. Painting, new gym padding, washing and waxing of floors are among the activities happening each day. The team is also busy maintaining the grounds surrounding the buildings, which includes repairing damage to parking lots and sealcoating and restriping them to improve visual appearance. Larger projects, such as repairs and updates to HVAC systems, security systems and adding over 500 additional Chromebooks for student use, are also happening during the summer season.
Kindergarten Welcome Coming Soon
All incoming West Geauga kindergartners and their families are invited to a welcome event before school starts. Kindergarteners will have a chance to visit Westwood Elementary School on Aug.13 from 3-5 p.m. to become more familiar with starting school. No matter which building one’s child will attend, it is a great opportunity to meet the building principals, take a tour of the school, meet teachers and enjoy a snack.

The West Geauga varsity baseball team went into the season with eight seniors and ended with a competitive result of 12-11. The team included 11 lettermen and was coached by Guy McIntryre, who has been the coach for the last four years and has been involved in the West Geauga program for the last twenty. Over that time, the high school program has grown in the number of players and win totals the past four years.
SRO Prepares for School Year
Mark Rich, West Geauga’s school resource officer, just returned from additional training to help him and the staff prepare for the upcoming school year. He said, “The training I attended was for the OSROA (Ohio School Resource Association). It was a three-day Rich training that covered vaping, electronic cigarettes, the digital lives of students, drug awareness, Ohio trends and emerging threats. In addition, the training covered a

school resource officer’s role in addressing mental health disorders.” The training will help Rich and the staff to better serve the West G students at all levels.
Marching Band Trip to Disney The West Geauga High School marching band will be enjoying travel this year. In addition to a trip to The Ohio State University to participate in Skull Sessions, the band will travel to Florida in the fall. Band director Jason Branch commented,
“The West Geauga Marching Band will perform at the Magic Kingdom, and the Wolverettes are participating in a dance clinic. The band is participating in a performance clinic and recording studio activity in November.” Travel and training help the musicians to develop their skills and prepare for more advanced performances.

Gino Antonelli’s desire to expand his restaurant business brought him to Chester Township. Since leasing the property, he and his wife, Carolina Antonelli, have been massaging the environment into “causal Italian.”
Gino’s
from page 1 spacious venue his own Italian recipes to the kitchen and bar, and will offer craft beers. But his unique contribution is his signature wedge sandwich called The Panino. The Panino had its origins in Antonelli’s trip to New Orleans with a friend. They visited the famous Napoleon House restaurant and he had his first taste of the muffuletta sandwich. “I instantly fell in love with every bite of this muffuletta sandwich, especially the amazing sesame-seed-topped sweet brioche bread,” Antonelli said. “It was the best sandwich I’d ever had.” Back in Ohio, he experimented until he had the recipe perfected and is ready to offer the wedge sandwich to guests the first week in August. For the last five years, Antonelli has been operating his Bistro at Bratenahl Place, a community restaurant that rates 4.5 stars on YELP online.
Ready to expand, he spent a couple of months looking for the right venue on Cleveland’s east side. His search brought him to Chester Township and, since he has a lot of friends “out this way,” he decided Maywood Center is a good fit. “Everyone is so friendly here, my wife is looking for a house,” Antonelli said, adding Carolina is “the silent boss” and has been instrumental in selecting the décor and organizing the catering side of the operation. The space he is leasing is large enough that he plans to close off a portion into an event room where the restaurant will cater large parties, he said. “My biggest challenge has been finding staff,” he said. The operation will need 15 to 20 workers, most of whom will be part time. Until those positions are filled, Antonelli said he will ask employees at the bistro to help out. Hours will be from 4-11 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 4 p.m. to midnight Friday and Saturday. Sunday hours are to be announced.

Business Spotlight: MyoFit Clinic
Doctor of Physical Therapy First in Treatment for Back Pain By Dr. Adam M. Cramer, PT, DPT If chronic back pain is seriously impacting your quality of life, you are not alone. Low back pain remains the most common cause of lost work days and missed attendance at important events. It is non-discriminating in that it attacks both men and women equally and vicious and relentless when it hits, stopping us Cramer in our tracks, and making even basic movements excruciating.
Why physical therapy should be your first line of treatment
Instead of rushing out for pain medications or getting on a waiting list for surgery, more and more people with chronic low back pain are seeing a physical therapist first. In the state of Ohio you do not need a physician’s referral or prescription to have your physical therapy services covered. You can see any physical therapist that you want and no physician can direct you to go to see their own or anyone else’s, YOU HAVE THE CHOICE! A mountain of research published in peer-reviewed journals around the world supports this. Physical therapy should be your first line of attack on lower back pain because it has proven to be effective, it saves money
and it prevents dependency on pharmaceuticals.
How physical therapists treat low back pain
Our goals are straightforward when patients arrive at MyoFit Clinic suffering from low back pain. First, we take immediate step to decrease the pain; then we work to increase your mobility to function creating a long-term program you can continue at home to prevent your pain from recurring. Trigger point dry needling is a physical therapy treatment that involves inserting needles into myofascial trigger points within muscles and soft tissue. The treatment focuses on reducing and eliminating the trigger points and restores range of motion. It is especially effective in patients who have been suffering from chronic and acute low back pain. Specific exercises that help treat low back pain include proper stretching, dynamic stabilization exercises to strengthen the spine’s secondary muscles, and core strengthening exercises use to strengthen the low back muscles and abdominal muscles. Doctors of physical therapy will show you exactly how to manage your symptoms, correct them and keep them from coming back again successfully avoiding surgery. Dr. Adam M. Cramer, PT, DPT, is a licensed physical therapist, Pain specialist and owner of MyoFit Clinic in Chardon and Middlefield, Ohio.

Transfer
Scott A. Larrick

idents who had signed up before the meeting to speak for up to five minutes each. Six spoke in favor of the transfer. Two, including current Newbury Schools Board of Education member Marty Sanders, spoke in opposition. “Newbury is a quiet community of 5,500, 20 percent of whom are senior citizens,” said Tina Ryan. “One thousand are children.” Ryan urged the ESC board to approve the transfer. She criticized the rancor in the Newbury community over the transfer and said the split has given the township a bad reputation outside Ohio. She urged the community to choose a cooperative attitude. “We need to take this opportunity for a peaceful and unified transfer,” Ryan said. “We need to embrace the future.” Two announced candidates for Newbury Schools Board of Education in the November election, Terri Rice and David Lair, told the ESC board a transfer will give Newbury students many more opportunities for honors and advanced placement classes, more academic offerings, and more opportunities for participation in sports and extra-curricular activities. Mary Masilonis pointed out West Geauga Schools is ranked number 28 in the state and can offer classes in sculpting, journalism, Latin, Chinese and ceramics; as well as sports, including golf, lacrosse, fencing, gymnastics and swimming; and clubs such as chess club, Key Club and the National Honor Society. “Why would anyone want less for their children?” she asked. Melissa Miller said Newbury’s 1928-era building, constructed for more than a thousand students, is not sustainable with its current small population. “My family and I have lived through the roller coaster ride that is Newbury Schools,” Miller said. “Please give our children a sustainable future.” Current Newbury board member Marty Sanders, who has consistently criticized a territory transfer, said he does not want Newbury to lose its small school atmosphere. He blamed the district’s dwindling enrollment on the current board’s decision to seek a merger with another district, which he called “destabilization of our school.” “It’s not the people who are making that choice,” Sanders said. Jessica Alldredge, a vocal critic of the transfer, questioned whether ESC board member Sally Gillmore should be allowed to vote on the issue. “This decision reflects on your board as well as Newbury’s,” she said. “A current ESC member has served as a West Geauga board member for several years. She can’t be unbiased and should recuse herself.” She added, “This will be a train wreck for our community, your desire to get it over with. It deserves a public vote.” The ESC board did not reply to any of the comments. Board President Ken Burnett said the transfer resolution has been in discussion for two years. After he read the resolution, the board passed it unanimously. “Tomorrow, copies of the document will be delivered to both districts, along with territorial maps attached,” Burnett announced. Burnett said the board will take the final vote at their next meeting on Sept. 3. There will be a referendum period until Oct. 3, during which residents can submit petitions to the Geauga County Board of Elections to place the issue on the November ballot.

Newbury Schools Board of Education member Marty Sanders told Geauga ESC board members July 23 a territory transfer will mean Newbury will no longer have a small school.
Following the meeting, Lair said petitioners will need to submit 1,400 valid signatures for a ballot issue. If a referendum passes, the transfer issue will be delayed for two years. Lair said if that happens, the Newbury enrollment is likely to drop even further, which he believes would incur a state takeover. Lair said the state could then order the district to be broken up into several surrounding districts if that should happen. “It sounds good to sign a petition to put something on the ballot for a vote of the people, but if it passes, the people would likely lose all their say with a state takeover,” Lair said.
