Middlefield Planning Commission Voices Reservations About Airbnbs

by Ann WiShArt Ann@kArlovecmediA com

As demand for short-term rentals – like Airbnbs – increases across the country, Middlefield Village Planning Commission is looking at ways to regulate their establishment in the village.

Ohio House Bill 563, which would not allow municipalities to control short-term rentals, was not passed and signed before the end of 2022, so cities and villages are free to set guidelines for the short-term rental of homes.

On Feb. 7, planning commission Chairman Scott Klein recommended the commission pursue some regulations for homeowners already operating Airbnbs or who are considering the money-making idea.

Bicyclist Killed After Running Stop Sign

StAff report

A bicyclist riding the Maple Highlands Bike Trail in Middlefield Township died Feb. 14 after he failed to stop at the post trail stop sign and was hit by a sport utility vehicle, the Ohio State Highway Patrol said.

Steven Arnold Hirsh, 60, of Middlefield Township, died at University Hospitals Geauga Medica Center in Claridon Township, where he was taken after the 3:18 p.m. crash.

Hirsh was riding west on the bike trail when he pedaled through a stop sign at the intersection of state Route 528. He was hit by a southbound 2015 Chevrolet Equinox that 38-year-old Erika Hardee, also of Middlefield Township, was driving on Route 528, the patrol said.

Hirsh did not have a helmet on, the patrol added, and alcohol and drugs do not appear to be a factor in the crash at this time.

The crash remains under investigation, the patrol said.

Klein said he has stayed at Airbnbs when traveling and likes them, but he said he has reservations about leaving them unregulated in the village.

“I don’t want an Airbnb next door,” he said, recommending the village only allow them in areas zoned for multifamily residences or general commercial use, which would rule out opening short-term rentals in subdivisions.

Most of the village is zoned to allow multifamily residences, Klein said.

The property owner should also be required to get a permit from the village to operate a short-term rental, he said, adding he would like the owner to report what days someone is staying at the property, so the police department knows why cars

with out-of-state licenses are parked there.

Keeping up the appearance of the village is also a goal, Klein said.

“They need to be well main tained and looked after,” he said, adding if the property is not well maintained or the neighbors complain, the permit could be pulled.

Ideally, the house would be owner-occupied, so part of it would be rented out while the owner remained in residence, Klein said.

If that is not acceptable, the village needs to have the owner’s contact information on file in case there is a problem, he said.

Commission member Dave Dietrich urged caution.

“Let’s start out conservatively

and see how it works,” he said.

No action was taken following the conversation.

However, regulations on parking spaces for electric vehicle supply equipment may go to village council soon.

Changes to the proposed ordinance included sizing EV spaces at least 10-feet-by-20-feet and landscape screening.

Klein said the fire department should weigh in on the installation of the equipment.

The proposed ordinance recommended limits on the number or percentage of EV parking spaces in a commercial lot, but commission members noted the supply equipment is expensive to install and limits might not be necessary.

Gardening & Cooking With Catherine

by cAtherine yoder pArkmAn toWnShip

Hello readers. What a rainy day we’re having. Oh well, I guess we need the moisture as we haven’t had enough snow. Well, today we’ll see what recipes we enjoy.

Fluffy Raspberry Salad

Ingredients:

14.6 oz pudding (cook and serve, vanilla)

6 oz. raspberry Jello

1 teaspoon lemon juice

16 oz. Cool Whip

2 cups raspberries (other berries will also work)

Directions: Mix together pudding, Jello, water and lemon juice in saucepan over medium heat until it boils. Remove from heat and pour into bowl. Refrigerate until mixture has thickened, about an hour. Beat until creamy. Fold in Cool Whip and raspberries. Chill about 1 hour.

Loaded Roasted Broccoli

Ingredients:

2 cups broccoli florets

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 cups cauliflower florets

1 tablespoon butter

1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

3 pieces bacon, cooked and crumbled

Salt and pepper to taste

4 green onions, chopped

Directions: Preheat oven to 375 F. Toss broccoli with olive oil and roast in the oven for 30 minutes or until cooked and slightly browned. Meanwhile, add cauliflower and butter to a microwave bowl and cook in microwave for 10 minutes or you can cook in kettle on stove or until cauliflower can easily be pierced with fork. Let cauliflower cool a few minutes than add to high speed blender. Blend into with the cheese. Blend until smooth and creamy. After broccoli is finished, top with the cheese, bacon and any other toppings you wish.

Easy Taco Skillet Meal

Ingredients:

2 pounds ground beef

1 quart tomato juice

2 cups instant rice, uncooked

2 tablespoons taco seasoning

1-1/2 cup water

1/4 cup brown sugar

Shredded lettuce

Chopped onions

2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Sour cream

Salsa

Directions: Brown beef in skillet, drain. Add tomato juice, rice, seasonings, water and brown sugar. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes or until rice is tender, stirring several times. Top with cheese and cover until melted. Serve with lettuce, onions, sour cream and salsa.

The right plant and right space. The facts of light. The growing requirements of plants are expressed in terms of full sun, partial sun and full shade.

Once you assess your site’s sun and shade patters, you can match plant to those places. Full sun — at least 6 hours of sun daily. Also, sites that have filtered or dappled light. Full shade: less than 3 hours of sun daily.

Matching plants to the growing conditions of your site is the key to a beautiful garden. Size, soil, hardiness, heat and humidity contribute to your success.

Choose plants in same color family. White is a strong, elegant and serene color. Yellows are warm and cheerful, blues are cool and relaxed, pinks work well with neutral house colors. Every color has a character, but mixing them all together ends looking scattered. You can’t go wrong with a single color scheme. You can add another color that doesn’t clash.

Buying healthy plants opt for plants with buds over those with flowers. Avoid stressed plants with stretched out stems, yellow or brown leaves. Forgo sickly clearance plants. Choose firm bulbs and tubers. See you all next time.

Faith Matters Breaking Out of Dormancy

Most of us are feeling good about turning the calendar forward to March. Even though it has been a mild winter by Ohio standards, we are good and ready for Spring’s arrival. The maple sap has been flowing for a few weeks and the bluebirds already have returned and made a new nest in their box. To celebrate, I have already bought some young Japanese Maple trees to plant around the property. I can’t wait to put them in the ground.

Nevertheless, the grass, shrubs and trees are nothing to brag about. The landscape is still looking pretty drab. Most of what we see is in either dead or in a state of dormancy. Of course, that is normal. During the cold winter months, perennial plants, bushes and trees become inactive, suspending growth and function to conserve energy and to protect from freezing. I have been cutting off dead stems above ground, knowing full well that new growth will begin to spring up soon.

By Roger Kruse

Sometimes people go into dormancy, too. What do I mean by that? We suspend our healthy life pursuits and hunker down to inactivity. We go into a funk, a robotic routine of daily life that bears little fruit of human interaction, joy or discovery. Maybe we are ill, depressed or simply uninspired. Perhaps we are healing from a disappointment or hurt that has left us licking our wounds. How are you doing? Where are you at in the cycle of dormancy?

Unlike the Ohio landscape, springtime does not guarantee that our lives will change. Some of us will remain “stuck” in a dormant state of life, lacking the internal growth process to jumpstart our lives into a new display of life.

So, how can that happen? How can you “break out” of spiritual dormancy and discover new evidences of personal growth? Let me suggest some steps that have the potential to energize your soul.

Seek the sunshine of God’s face. You

were designed to be in fellowship with your heavenly Father. However, you must desire and pursue His closeness. The Bible says, “Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you.” Begin by opening your heart and mind, conversing with the Lord. Be honest and transparent, sharing your true feelings. Ask God to meet you and show you a new reality of Jesus living in you. Learn to look for His help in your life, those touches of His kindness. Remember to give thanks for the many blessings that come your way. Take in the nourishment necessary to grow your faith. Like roots, your faith needs to go deeper into the soil of God’s love. When you take time to read a portion of the Bible each day, you will discover new, robust growth that eventually produces a sweet fragrance of a Christlike life. Pick out a verse from your reading that encourages or challenges you. Think about it during the day, allowing the meaning and application to infuse your life with new spiritual growth. God’s Word will produce within you new attitudes, desires and vitality that will surprise you. Try it!

God promises His Holy Spirit will indwell those who choose to follow Jesus. The Helper brings the life-giving water that becomes like a spring of refreshment, saturating our souls with divine power. Little by little, the Lord will display the fruit of His Holy Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Remember, this is God’s work. Yet, you must desire it and take steps to nurture it. It requires the mindset to know and do what pleases God.

So, let’s go for it. Don’t settle for dormancy. Awaken your soul and watch what God can do.

Roger Kruse needs and wants fresh growth in his soul this Spring. God is faithful to respond and make him fully alive in Christ.

Ramblings from Windsor

by ruth byler

Hello friends, a very unusual winter we’ve been having!

Jake and IdaMae Miller welcomed their first daughter. Her name is Rosalyn and her grandparents are John Henry Millers and Jonas Hershbergers.

Monday, Feb. 20: Sheila moved back home after staying at her daughter Esther an family as she recovered.

Tuesday, Feb. 21: Dad’s family gathered at his sisters Katie and Fanny’s tonight. Don’t think all the locals were there. I was playing volleyball.

Thursday, Feb. 23: Grandpa was taken to ER. He was having trouble breathing. Not sure what’s wrong yet. Mom and Dad went up tonight.

If you meet up with Uncle Marty (Huntsburg Botshaft scribe) you will definitely want to ask him about his runaway. I won’t even try writing about it. As his story would way top mine. :)

Friday, Feb. 24: Grandpa is still in hospital. He has a broken/(bruised?) rib and a touch of pneumonia. Hmm, why is his rib hurting though? :) Ask him or cousin David at O.A.R Vinyl Windows or possibly any of their coworker’s.

Dad and Mom were to the hospital again today and, of all things, our water quit working. When Dad got home after 9 p.m., we ended up pulling the pipe and then the new one wouldn’t fit! So we pumped water over from Grandma.

Saturday, Feb. 25: Happy Birthday brother Josiah. Dad got water pump fixed. Good news, Grandpa came home today. Bad news, he had to miss his trip to Sparty to visit his cousin :(

Monday, Feb. 27: It would’ve been Grandpa’s (Dad’s dad ) birthday today, if he would

still be living.

Andy Burkholder passed away tonight. His wife Sarah and three special children, Allan Fannie and Linda, live at 11574 Clay St., Huntsburg, OH 44046. Fannie had a birthday today.

Maria Gingerich, Manda Byler and Dora and Elva Miller were here for the night. Yes, on a Monday night someday we will probably look back, shake our heads and wonder why we didn’t sleep more when we were young.

Tuesday, Feb. 28: Happy 17th birthday, Sari. The girls that spent that night at my place and I were school visiting. We had a very enjoyable day. Got word Mosa Levi Maryann passed away. She had cancer.

Wednesday, March 1: Happy 69th birthday to Sam Esther. I hope you had a great day. And I hope to see you soon again.

As the old folks say, if March comes in like a lamb, it will leave like a lion, so let’s see if it truly does — because it definitely came in as a lamb.

Thursday, March 2: I will be spending the next few days at a cabin with some of my friends. It Is such a peaceful setting an beautiful cabin. The wildflower at forever spring.

Friday, March 3: Happy birthday to Rop S. Miller :) and Happy 18th Kaitlyn Bontrager.

Sunday, March 5: Grandma and aunts and Marty and Esther were here for brunch. Around 4:15 p.m. Marty and Esther started for home with horse and buggy, and just a little after that we headed that way with driver also wayne and Lyn, and we were there when they got home. Every door and window was locked, but we made us right at home. :)

‘Til next time, was it really a bad day or was it just a bad 5 minutes that you let ruin a good day?

Learn to Play Bunco at Chili Cook-Off

Submitted

During the Huntsburg Grange Chili CookOff on March 18, Debbie Gallagher, a member of the Huntsburg Bunco Club, will teach anyone who is interested in learning how to play the game of Bunco.

Bunco is a social dice game with the objective of accumulating points and rolling certain combinations. Debbie will instruct on the finer points of the game.

The word Bunco brings happy memories, back to the 1950s when it was introduced as a night for young moms in Huntsburg to visit at each other’s homes. The

original club continues meeting every two weeks during the cooler weather starting in September through the spring. Anyone interested in joining may come to the chili cook-off.

Information and items from Bunco in Huntsburg are on display in the Huntsburg Historical Society Museum, which will be open during the cook-off.

The chili cook-off is March 18 from11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at the Huntsburg Community Center, 12406 Madison Road. For more information on the event or about the Huntsburg Grange, call Jean at 440-286-4992 or Lynnette at 440-477-2822.
