March Proves Busy Month for Police, Fire

By Magdalene Pesch news@kirtlandchronicle.com Kirtland emergency services were kept busy last month handling numerous calls, including a school lockdown incident, an active shooter report at Lakeland Community College and a house fire.

At the Kirtland City Council meeting March 18, council President Kevin Potter asked Kirtland Police Chief Lance Nosse to report

on a March 14 lockdown at the Kirtland Schools’ campus as well as the Lakeland incident.

“Without giving up too much because it’s obviously — it’s proceeding in court, we received a call concerning a gentleman that was seen with a firearm,” Nosse said.

“When the school went into lockdown, as it should — I commend the young ladies, I believe they’re 10 years old, that reported it to See Services • Page 5

“Honestly, it was seamless. Everything was just a seamless transition. We were able to get the gentleman in custody for other various reasons and nobody got hurt and we were able to reopen the school and move on.”

Longtime Barber Shop Strives to be a ‘Cut’ Above the Rest

In a day and age of constantly evolving technology, movement and progression, the passionate preservation of an 1836 church in Kirtland has been a worthwhile endeavor for people like Seth Bryant.

“Taking care of the Kirtland Temple is an honor and thrill of a lifetime,” said Bryant, site director of the Kirtland Temple, 9020 Chillicothe Road, for the past two years.

Bryant’s ancestors helped build the Kirtland Temple in 1836 using stone quarried from the Chapin Forest, he said, adding the building was intended as a house of worship, like other churches in the area; however, as a temple, it was

Council Bids Farewell to Longtime Finance Director

By Magdalene Pesch news@kirtlandchronicle.com March 18 marked the last Kirtland City Council meeting for exiting Finance Director Keith Martinet.

“I started here in June of 1992. It’s been a long time. I thank all the mayors and city councils and department heads,” he said.

“It’s been a great time. You know, this is a great city and I hope everyone will continue to make good decisions.”

Councilman Rich Lowery told Martinet he would be missed, particularly his laugh.

“We appreciate everything you’ve done,” said Councilman John Lesnick. “Thanks for helping out us new guys, too.”

Council President Kevin Potter said from day one, Martinet has been “nothing but helpful” to him and everyone.

“By all accounts, you’ve helped us get our arms and hands and heads wrapped around some of this stuff. You’ve been patient and you’ve been diligent,” he said. “I can’t think of a harder worker and I appreciate getting to know you and all the hard work you’ve done for the city.”

Councilman Matthew Schulz wished Martinet the best of health and thanked him for all of his hard work.

“Keith, I really appreciate your positive attitude at all times, even during tax season,” said Councilman David Kirek.

On March 4, council unanimously approved a resolution confirming the appointment of Mary Kovalchik as the part-time interim finance director for the City of Kirtland.

confirming the appointment of Louis Slapnicker as the part-time assistant finance director for the City of Kirtland.

Potter thanked Slapnicker for his extensive pro bono service on the Fiscal Review Task Force.

“As you can tell, I’m a very dedicated person as you guys know through the task force,” Slapnicker said. “So I’ll be here diving all the way in looking at any ways that we can make things better. I’ll be a good point of

contact for (the city’s finance team) to reach out during the day with any questions, any guidance that they need. I’ll be hands-on.”

Kirek said Slapnicker is a “very impressive young man.”

Martinet added: “I think Mary and Louis are great and I think they’ll do a great job and appointing both of them’s going to be a good decision by the city. I’m going to miss it.”

Lowery asked for an update on the service director position search.

“I would expect that on the April 1 agenda that the individual’s name is on there,” Mayor Doug Davidson answered. “I’ll commit to getting it done as soon as I can, recognizing the importance of having someone in there for the spring. My gratitude to the members of the panel who helped interview and go through the resumes and ask questions. It is, if you consider a 10-year period of time, which is the period of time I expect the person to serve, that it’s a million-dollar decision.”

In other business, Lowery, Lesnick and Councilman Joe Smolic said residents have complained to him about elements of the new brush pickup rules.

“The new rules are a result of, let’s call them, ‘abuses’ by certain residents who, let’s say, on Billings Road, for instance, maybe they built a new house, they cleared their entire lot and put it along the entire frontage of their lot,” Davidson said. “It’s not a reasonable amount. If you’re doing land clearing, there are land clearing companies and landscaping companies and ways to achieve that. We’re trying to do a convenience for all the citizens. If they pull up and they have to spend half a day at one house, there’s a problem. And really those rules are driven by abuses of previous seasons.”

Davidson added if there needs to be a modification, “let’s modify” and said he would review the regulations.

The results of the Feb. 6 strategic planning kickoff meeting are posted at www.kirtlandohio.com. Available are “Kirtland City Mindmap,””One Word to Describe Kirtland” and “SWOT Analysis.”

the teacher — (Kirtland Elementary School) Principal (Chad) VanArnhem notified (School Resource) Officer (Al) Taddeo, who immediately took action.”

The school district released a statement March 15 explaining an employee with a concealed carry permit was securing his weapon in his vehicle in the school parking lot when a student saw him and notified administrators.

“A lockdown was implemented as a precaution while the Kirtland Police Department responded,” school officials said in the statement. “After determining there was no threat to students or staff, the lockdown was lifted.

The employee was placed on paid administrative leave while the district investigates whether there was a violation of (Kirtland Schools) Board of Education policy. This is a personnel issue, so the district cannot comment any further. We want to commend our student for coming forward, and for everyone who followed all safety procedures and maintained a safe campus during lockdown.”

Nosse told council everything “went smoothly,” that day.

“I’m very proud of everybody that was there,” he said. “Honestly, it was seamless.

Everything was just a seamless transition.

We were able to get the gentleman in custody for other various reasons and nobody got hurt and we were able to reopen the school and move on. Obviously, because there are charges on that, I can’t speak too much about this.”

Kirtland police also responded to a Feb. 28 “swatting” call that concerned the Lakeland Community College campus, Nosse said during the March 4 city council meeting.

According to the police report, around 5:54 p.m., dispatch received a call from an unknown male stating he was at the college campus with two pipe bombs and a rifle about to shoot everyone.

“The male further stated he was inside the radio station,” said Sgt. James Fisher in his report. “Lakeland Community College police were notified that we were responding to assist. With the assistance of numerous units from multiple Lake County police agencies, the entire campus was searched, which was met with negative results. An investigation into who made the call was initiated.”

During the council meeting, Nosse praised the quick responses of multiple po-

Kirtland Chronicle

lice departments in the area.

“Positive that came out of it was that there was no active shooter,” Nosse said.

Fire Chief Anthony Hutton was not present at the council meeting, but on March 14, the Kirtland Fire Department reported on its Facebook page there was a structure fire in the area of state Route 306 and Barristers Court that day.

“Kirtland Fire (Department) along with surrounding area departments quickly responded to the fire. No one was home at the time the fire started,” officials said. “The family pet was taken to Kirtland Veterinary Hospital. Unfortunately, the dog did not survive.”

At the April 1 Kirtland City Council meeting, Hutton provided more information on the house fire.

“We did not receive one 911 call on that fire. We had a person walk into dispatch, knock on the window and say, ‘There’s smoke in the area. I’m not sure where it’s coming from,’” he said. “I was at (State Route) 306 and Joseph (Street) when the tones went out. I could see smoke up the road. The call came in as smoke on North Star (Road), Charlesderry (Road) area, so as I’m pulling up, I’m looking to the east and I see a lot of smoke. When I did look to the west, the fire had already broken out all the windows. The front side of the house was fully involved. It started wrapping around the sides. We made a quick hit with our ‘blitz attack,’ is what we call it.”

The chief reiterated no one as hurt, but the family pet was lost.

Results of an insurance investigation are pending, he said.

“Once we determine that it is accidental, (if) there’s no arson or anything involved, we turn it over to the insurance companies,” Hutton said. “They will provide their own investigators. Churchwell Insurance is investigating it now.”

also a place to tarry and be endowed with the Holy Spirit, to then be sent forth in mission.

The second floor served as a “School of Mine Apostles” to prepare the priesthood for ministry, Bryant said.

The Latter-day Saints recorded visions and spiritual manifestations in the 1830s, he said, adding they referred to the dedicatory period as a latter-day Pentecost, like the second chapter of “Acts” in the “New Testament.”

Very little has been done, in terms of renovations or changes to the building. It has never had a bathroom added to it, nor a kitchen, even though a congregation worshipped regularly in it up until 1959, Bryant said.

“Community of Christ — formerly the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, one of the denominations that came out of the original Latter-Day Saint community who built the temple — has gone out of its way to preserve it exactly as it was built in the 1830s. Of course, electricity, HVAC, fire suppression systems etc. were added, but the building itself remains as it was built 183 years ago,” Bryant said. “We still hold services in the temple, just not every Sunday.

Services open to the community are held on Good Friday, Easter morning, Thanksgiving and two at Christmas time. Visiting and local congregations also hold services in the temple. Altogether, there are around 50 services held in the temple each year.”

The Kirtland Temple brings in countless tourists each year, Bryant said, adding his favorite experiences are when people from different traditions and places meet together

in the temple and it becomes a place of reconnection and healing.

“I would hope that our visitors would appreciate just how unique this place is. First off, there’s no other building in the world like Kirtland Temple,” he said. “But, it’s even more remarkable to have something preserved to the degree that this building has been preserved. No building committee ever knocked down a wall. The RLDS congregation, who was here for almost a century starting in 1860, felt that God literally designed the place, so former caretakers didn’t change a thing. You’re in a time machine when you walk in.”

More than 31,000 people visit the temple annually, with a third of those coming in July.

Visitors come from Australia, Europe, South America and Asia, although most visit from the western United States and are members of their cousin denomination, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

“Community of Christ is a more liberal branch of the same movement that grew out of Kirtland in the 1830s, but we get along with our cousins and love sharing our history together,” said Bryant.

The children of Kirtland Elementary School visit the Kirtland Temple on field trips.

“We give a special tour that focuses on our local history and the role the temple has played,” Bryant said. “For example, the third story attic floor of the temple was home to the Kirtland High School in the 1830s. We also have students visit from other school districts, but usually AP history students or college students.”

While the Kirtland Temple plays a prominent role in the skyline of Kirtland, it also impacts many people’s hearts, whether they

Stone quarried from Chapin Forest was used to build the foundation of the historic Kirtland Temple in 1836.

have religious ties to the building or not, Bryant said.

“When our football team went to state championships a few years back, we held a prayer service in the temple beforehand,” he said. “Many high school students will take their prom photos in our gardens. We want this place to be, and I think it is, one of the hallmarks of Kirtland.”

Taking care of the temple is an honor and thrill of a lifetime for Bryant, he said.

“My ancestors literally built the temple, so I’m coming home and becoming native

to a place that has deep meaning,” he added. “That said, being the director is stressful work. Never enough time or money to do the job how I’d like it to be done. But with a very dedicated staff of volunteers and paid employees, we pour our hearts into this place.

And the temple watches on, having been here long before me and it will be here long after me. It’s just an honor to spend a little time at the helm.”

David Cool — who grew up going to the temple and is a tour guide there since 2012 — said it had a great significance in determining who he is today.

“I was married there, as was my mother,” he said.

Cool’s guests are receptive to learning about the history of this landmark.

“Since most of our guests are from the Utah branch of Latter-day Saints, they are very receptive. For many of our visitors, it is a pilgrimage,” he said. “For those outside the faith, it is an admiration of an historic building. The feedback I get is inspirational. Since I give a different tour than others, mine is given from a lifetime of personal experiences within what are considered by most as sacred walls. I usually receive hugs with tears of thanks.”

Cool added, “Virtually every tour is uplifting. I have seen people who arrive with limited abilities to walk, climb three flights of stairs, to encounter an experience of a lifetime for them. Listening to groups sing, ‘The Spirit of God Like a Fire is Burning,’ with tears flowing is a moving experience every time. Being in the temple and showing where things happened in my life is very important.”

from page 8 Softball Team Has Potential

Kirtland’s softball team also will see some new faces in the lineup after the graduation of several key players but Jamie Kamensky’s squad returns several key players from the team that finished 13-7 overall and 10-2 in league play.

“The key to our success is going to be versatility, getting some key players back from injury, developing our younger girls quickly, and staying healthy,” Kamensky said.

“I’m excited to see our growth and where we are toward the end of the season. We have a tough schedule ahead of us but by postseason we can be something very special.”

Kirtland’s success starts at the top with the three seniors who have meant so much to the program.

Emily Ungrady returns in the circle as one of the most complete all-around players in the area. She was named Co-MVP of the Chagrin Valley Conference Valley Division and also earned all-district honors.

Elizabeth Vernon is out with an injury but will return at shortstop and Kaitlyn Mancini has third base on lockdown.

“Our senior class is something special,” Kamensky said. “They have a dynamic relationship that has really helped to focus our program this year. Emily brings a lot to the table, pitching, fielding, and hitting. She is not only a leader through her play; she has become a mentor and a true leader for our younger players. Elizabeth is battling back from an injury that happened during the soccer season. Though she hasn’t been able to lead on the field, she has been a voice for our

Juniors Samantha Bates, Haleigh Getchell, Noelle Nead and Julia Camino also are projected to start for the Hornets. Bates will line up behind the plate while Getchell will play first. Nead and Camino, an All-CVC performer, will play left field and center, respectively.

Tennis Team Opens With Big Win

Track Team Ready to Run

Kirtland’s tennis team opened the season with an exciting 3-2 win at Mentor on March 28. The Hornets swept the singles competition but came up short in both doubles matches.

“It was a great way to start the season,” Kirtland coach Bob Lasecki said. “Kyle (Lutz) and Justin (Aranavage) did awesome with straight-set wins. Lauren (Lutz) and Nate (Cardon) and Lauren (Namciu) and Aaron (Schulz) gained a lot of experience in their losses.”

Lutz defeated Mentor’s Reese Elinger in first singles, 6-2, 6-2. Aranavage beat Mentor’s Gavin Beyer in second singles, 6-4, 6-1.

Kirtland sophomore Nisha Makkar won an exciting third singles match over Mentor’s Elliot Miller, 6-1, 4-6, 7-6 (9-7).

“Nisha was a star,” Lasecki said. “After winning 6-1 in the first, she dropped the second and they went back and forth for the entire third set. She was down three match points in the tiebreaker and came back to win it and seal it for the Hornets.

Lutz and Cardon dropped their first doubles match to Mike Nicoletti and Denny Migro, 6-7, 4-6, and Namciu and Schulz fell to Aiden Hahn and Nick Pirs, 1-6, 3-6 in second doubles.

“This was big for our confidence, especially being so early in the year,” Lasecki said. “We have a lot of kids who came out for

Kirtland’s track team opens the season on April 3 with a dual meet against league rival Berkshire and the Hornets are excited about their potential this season.

The girls’ team returns its top performer in senior Jenna Sayle and boys’ squad has several athletes with the potential to reach the regional meet and beyond.

“This year we return our top performer from last season, Jenna Sayle,” Kirtland girls’ coach JP Moran said. “We have some balance and depth on the track in both the sprints and distances. There is a nice group of underclassmen we are excited to see perform and compete. The numbers are good and we have some new faces on the coaching staff ready to have a successful season.”

Austin Fulco and Torok, who will split time with the baseball team, both qualified for regionals last season and look to improve upon their performances from last spring.

Ryan Ritossa hopes to make up the inches he missed in the pole vault at last year’s district meet and several others have boys’ head coach Greg Sayle eager to start the season.

Jack Bailey, a Kent State football recruit, will throw the shot put, Luke Gogolin, is a returning district qualifier in the high jump, and Anthony Blasini and Logan Miguet have experience in several events.

Who was Mrs. Sherlock Holmes?

April 10 • 7 p.m.

Please join us for a presentation by local author Brad Ricca that will introduce patrons to Mrs. Grace Humiston, the detective and lawyer who turned her back on New York society life to become one of the nation’s greatest crime fighters during an era when women weren’t even allowed to vote.

After graduating from N.Y.U. law school, Grace opened a legal clinic in the city for low-income immigrant clients, and quickly established a reputation as a fierce, but fair lawyer.

And, when a pretty 18-year-old girl named Ruth Cruger went missing on Valentine’s Day, Grace navigated a dangerous mystery in a desperate race against time to save Ruth. When she solved the crime, she was made the first female consulting detective to the NYPD. Ricca is the author of “Mrs. Sherlock Holmes: The True Story of New York City’s Greatest Female Detective and the 1917 Missing Girl Case That Captivated a Nation,” nominated for a 2018 Edgar Award in Best Fact Crime.

This free program is sponsored by The Friends of the Kirtland Public Library. Please register for this event by calling the library.

Going FINE-FREE!

In honor of National Library Week, April 7-13, Kirtland Public Library is going fine free.

Beginning April 12, the library will no longer charge fines for most overdue material.

• Fine Free only applies to Kirtland library materials. Materials borrowed from other libraries will be subject to the fine policy of the owning library.

• Borrowers will still be charged for lost or damaged materials.

• All existing Kirtland library fines will be forgiven. This does not include bills for lost or damaged items.

• Fines will remain in place for certain items of equipment: WiFi hotspots.

KPL has automatic renewals now. Unless a book is on hold for someone, it will automatically renew four times.

Borrowers will receive an email or phone call from CLEVNET when an item cannot be renewed because someone else is waiting for it, or it has reached its renewal limit.

Overdue fines will be charged after the item has reached the renewal limit.

Kirtland Public Library Trustees voted to

make this change at the March 2019 meeting.

“We want to make it as easy as possible for the residents of our service area (Kirtland, Kirtland Hills and Waite Hill) to take advantage of our materials and services,” said Library Director Jane Carle.

Barber from page 1

known as “Junior” to many resident of Kirtland, opened the shop on Sept. 8, 1958. Junior grew up in Willoughby, raised his family in Mentor and later moved to Kirtland, where he has lived for about 30 years.

Jason became a barber in 1995 and his wife, Kelly Patti, became a barber in 1998.

Before they became owners of the Kirtland Barber Shop, the couple worked at Michael’s Barber Shop in Willoughby. Kelly shared it was during that time they met and started dating.

“I took over the Kirtland Barber Shop Jan. 1, 2002. My wife, Kelly, came to work with me officially about six months later,” Jason said. “The basic services we provide for our customers are haircuts, head and face shaves, and beard trims. People seem to be happy we are here to keep the old-time barbershop tradition. The shop is a landmark in the community. We are very proud to own and operate it.”

Dan Samf has been a Kirtland resident for a total of 35 years and has been a customer of the Kirtland Barber Shop for the past 16 years.

“When I go to get my haircut, I always get a flattop. Kelly and Jason have both cut my hair. They both do a fantastic job, even though each of them cut my hair slightly different. It is hard to find a good barber that can cut a flattop correctly,” said Samf.

Samf said Kelly and Jason always take their time while cutting a customer’s hair.

“They genuinely like to know how you are doing and take the time to talk to you,” he said. “They never rush you out the door.”

He said the barbershop is an asset to the

community because it is a good way to stay connected to old friends.

“When I get my hair cut, I enjoy talking with old friends or even the parents of friends I knew in school. It is nice to ‘catch up’ with people I haven’t seen for a long time,” Samf said. “Overall, I have been extremely satisfied with how Kelly and Jason cut my hair and would recommend them to anyone.”

Bruce Carter has been a lifelong resident of Kirtland and has been getting his hair cut at the Kirtland Barber Shop for many of those years. He said Jason and Kelly are a very nice, friendly, easy-going couple and very attentive to their customers.

“All the people I talk to in Kirtland like

Jason and Kelly and like getting their hair cut at the Kirtland Barber Shop,” Carter said. “They are good business owners, cut your hair exactly how you ask, and keep their shop very neat and clean. My brothers and grandsons have also had their hair cut there.

I started going to get my haircut there when Junior owned the shop, then continued when Jason and Kelly took over. They did an excellent job filling Junior’s shoes.”

Jason said it has been “really amazing” to see up to three generations of families support them.

“People like to see the same faces in the barbershop,” he said. “Everyone seems to know someone when they come to the bar-

bershop. It’s nice having the small-town relationships.”

He also said it’s great being across from the Kirtland Schools as it makes it easy for the kids to walk over after school to see them for haircuts or face shaves for the older students.

“Many thanks to our many loyal customers and clients of the Kirtland Barber Shop for your support over the years,” Jason said.

“We couldn’t be successful without you.”

For information about the Kirtland Barber Shop and to schedule a haircut, shave or beard trim, call 440-256-8669. Hours are Tuesday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Saturday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Walk-ins are welcome.

KHS Students Recognized with Aspirations in Computing Awards Staff Report Kirtland High School junior Rylee Domonkos and senior Lilly Kelemen earned honorable mentions for the 2019 Ohio Affiliate National Center for Women & Information Technology (NCWIT) Award for Aspirations in Computing.

The award recognizes high school women across Ohio for their leadership and involvement in technology, robotics and applied science, along with their academic success and plans for post-secondary education.

Aspirations in Computing is a talent development initiative designed to increase female participation in technology careers by providing encouragement, visibility, community, leadership opportunities, scholarships and internships to aspiring technically inclined young women.

Kelemen is president of Student Council and Key Club. She also is a member of Math Club, National Honor Society and Academic Challenge. She plays volleyball and spends her summers volunteering at Broadmoor School.

Her proudest accomplishment as a programmer is creating a system that mimics the periodic table and outputs reactants or products based on user-given information.

Kelemen credits her computer science teacher Greg Cosimi with inspiring her to pursue this subject. She scored the highest

score possible on both AP Computer Science Principles and AP Computer Science tests.

An aspiring neurologist or biomedical engineer, Kelemen plans to double major or minor in computer science.

Domonkos is co-captain of FIRST Tech Challenge team 8120 and a member of Student Council, Kirtland Kiwanis Key Club, Drama Club, Math Club, Academic Challenge and Foreign Language Club. She enjoys computer programming, math and science and intends to go into a STEM field.

Domonkos is taking three AP courses and two community college courses.

She is a second-degree black belt in the American Taekwondo Association, earning state and district championship titles and ranking on the national and world levels.

Last year she earned a NCWIT National Certificate of Achievement.

“Rylee and Lilly are two of Kirtland’s strongest computer science students, and I am so proud of them,” said Cosimi, who nominated the two for the recognition. “Their leadership in class and in our school community is awesome. While these awards reflect their hard work in high school, I cannot wait to see what happens when Lilly and Rylee get to share their talents with the world outside of Kirtland.”

The two will be honored at an awards ceremony in Columbus in May.
