Bath Twp. reviewing local maintenance code Ken Palmer kpalmer@lsj.com

BATH TWP. — The Township Board is poised to take up a measure that would update the township’s property maintenance rules and make them easier to enforce. Board members discussed the issue in their July 18 meeting and could act on a tailored version of the International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC) as early as next month. The measure would streamline the code enforcement process and allow the township to address violations ranging from safety issues to neighborhood eyesores that can affect property values. Property owners could be ticketed if

they don’t correct a violation. “We tried to make it as minimal and effective as possible,” said township Police Chief Scott Rose, who sat on a committee that studied the issue for months. “We were trying to find a compromise, to do enough to protect people without going overboard.” The International Property Maintenance Code is a set of commonly used standards that is updated every three years. Local communities can tailor it to fit their particular needs. A committee comprising board members and building officials, along with the police chief and a private citizen, helped tailor the ordinance to focus on rental See PROPERTY, Page 3

properties. Owner-occupied homes would be specifically exempted from many requirements. Building officials often get complaints from renters but don’t have the tools to address violations, township officials said. “There are a number of people out there who need our help,” township Superintendent Troy Feltman told the board last week. Township officials said enforcement would be complaint-driven, meaning the township wouldn’t go out looking for violations. Still, not everyone is comfortable with the IPMC approach. In the meeting last week, Trustees Walter Pett and Rick Curtis questioned whether the township is over-reaching with the ordinance and intruding on property owners’ rights. “Once again, we’re having our community do something that’s already in place,” Pett said. “It seems there are tools in

place that can deal with this.” Curtis said the township could try to enforce the rules already on the books. Trustees Paula Clark and Leon Puttler, who sat on the committee that reviewed the IPMC, said it became clear to them that the township needs better tools to correct certain code violations. Standard IPMC rules governing interior aesthetics such as window coverings were left out of the draft ordinance, they said. “We tried to focus on those things that fell between the cracks,’ Puttler said. Township Supervisor Tom Schneider said he expects the board will take up the issue again at its next meeting and try to find a consensus. “We’re willing to work on it a little more if it means we can reach some sort of a middle ground,” he said.

Executive order is good news for Great Start Q

uietly and without much fanfare, Governor Rick Snyder signed an executive order recently creating an Office of Great Start within the Michigan Department of Education. This new office will work with Michigan’s Early Childhood Investment Corporation, which operates the Great Start system, to ensure that more children are “school ready” when they arrive in kindergarten. This is very good news for Michigan. Early childhood development is fundamental to creating great

GUEST COLUMN Karen Black kids, and great kids are fundamental to creating a new version of the Michigan we all know and remember - a Michigan that is economically vibrant and a place where businesses and families move to rather than away from. Economist James Heckman, the Nobel Laureate from the University of Chicago, offers a formula for understanding why things like prenatal care, preschool, quality child care and more are economically important.

The “Heckman Equation,” as he calls it, says that if we invest in educational and developmental resources for disadvantaged families that develop cognitive skills, social skills, and physical well-being in children early - from birth to age 5, when it matters most - and sustain that early leg-up with effective education through adulthood, we gain more capable, productive and valuable citizens who pay dividends to America for generations to come. Gov. Snyder is a pragmatic, results-driven person. His vision of a cradle to adulthood educa-

tion system isn’t based on flight or fancy. It’s based on data. As Professor Heckman said in a letter to the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Budget Reform, “Data from economists, social scientists and medical experts conclusively shows that the answer is to invest in comprehensive early childhood development - from birth to age 5 - particularly in disadvantaged children and their families.” Michigan’s Office of Great Start is certainly a step in the right direction. The office will combine and coordinate early

childhood programs and resources that currently are scattered across multiple state departments. The office will also work closely with the Early Childhood Investment Corporation to create, as the governor said earlier this year, “a dynamic partnership aimed at maximizing public and private investment in the service of Michigan’s children.” A major part of that partnership will continue to be Michigan’s Great Start Collaboratives, which operate in every county and are making tremendous strides toward building local early childhood systems starting with a

painstakingly built assessment of community needs and assets. What’s exciting about the Office of Great Start is that in time - and with continued legislative support we just might be able to see state resources go to communities to make those plans real. If so, we’ll move from making incremental progress on school readiness in Michigan to leaps. That will be wonderful news for Michigan and its future. Karen Black is the Great Start coordinator for Clinton County RESA.

Three injured in rollover accident along I-69 Ken Palmer kpalmer@lsj.com

DeWITT TWP. — Three people were hos-

pitalized after the truck they were riding in overturned on I-69 near Airport Road on July 17. Township police said a 56-year-old Eaton Rapids woman was driving the 2002 Ford F250 pickup with a trailer attached when she lost control in the westbound lanes about 3:45 p.m. The truck went off the road and overturned, ejecting one of the passengers, they said. Two Eaton Rapids men, ages 59 and 40, were taken by ambulance to Sparrow Hospital, along with the driver. The extent of their injuries was unclear.

Car-tree collision under investigation

The property damage crash occurred about 8:33 p.m. July 15 at State and Brook roads, police said. Officers received information about the suspect vehicle and driver and located him about 10:50 p.m., they said. The man said he didn’t realize he had been in an accident.

Honesty is the best policy for local driver A Lansing man who drove into two other vehicles on July 15 told police he’d had too much to drink and shouldn’t have been driving.

way down deep into the ear lessens the chances of resolution. You needn’t bother to blot the solution as most pets immediately shake their head forcing it out. Some pets have no problem with the irrigation solution squirted into their ear. Others are grievously offended by such an act and require a sneakier way of getting the solution into the ear. For these pets I recommend the caregiver saturate a small cosmetic cotton ball with Epi Otic, gently rub their ear then slip the soaked cotton ball into their ear canal. If you are gentle, they often enjoy the ear massage. The goal is to get the irrigation solution deep into the ear canal so that the offending

material is dislodged and evacuated. Please be compassionate. We know ear infections are often very painful. Prompt treatment under veterinary supervision is your best bet for rapid resolution. As an aside, many pets benefit from irrigating their ears with Epi Otic post bathing or swimming. When properly applied, Epi Otic removes any residual water. For more information about this and other pet health concerns, contact an expert, your veterinarian Dr. Stephen R.

LANSING — With recent temperatures climbing into the 90s and some communities experiencing heat advisories, the Michigan Department of Community Health (MDCH) is advising residents of the health risks associated with extreme temperatures and preventive measures they can take to stay safe. Any time temperatures are in the upper 80s and above, they can cause body temperature to rise. This can result in muscle cramps, dizziness, severe heat illness and even death. “The elderly and young children are especially vulnerable when it comes to the effects of extreme heat,” said Olga Dazzo, director of the MDCH. “It’s a good idea to check frequently on loved ones, neighbors and friends who may be at greater risk for heat illness.” Heat illness can occur when the body is unable to cool down. The body normally cools down by sweating. During extremely hot weather, sweating may not be enough to cool the body. That’s when people can become overheated to the point of becoming ill. “People should drink water frequently – even when they may not be thirsty – in order to stay hydrated,” said Dr. Dean Sienko, interim chief medical executive for the MDCH. “They also should avoid alcohol and caffeine because both can cause dehydration, the first stage of heat-related illness.”

Tips for staying cool To avoid heat illness: • Stay cool. Use an air conditioner or go to a cool place such as a basement, neighbor’s house, shopping mall or cooling center. Spending even a few hours a day in air conditioning can help reduce your risk for heat illness. • Use a fan only when the windows are open or the air conditioner is on. Fans will not prevent heat illness when the temperature is in the high 90s. • Take a cool shower or bath. • Keep shades and curtains closed to block the sun from coming in your home or office. • Avoid exercising and physical activity during the hottest part of the day. Mornings and evenings are usually cooler than mid-day. • Stay out of the sun. If you must be in the sun, wear thin and light-colored clothing, a hat and sunglasses. Wear sun screen (at least SPF15) and reapply every two hours,
