Tensions ran high at the short Volusia County Council meeting on Tuesday, April 2, causing council members to issue reminders about respect and protocol — or lack thereof — regarding items on the agenda. It began with council’s discussion on a $5,000 sponsorship for the “Dreams Do Come True”

weekend celebration April 25-26, which included a groundbreaking ceremony for the new DeLand Community Spring Hill Center that will be named after former County Councilwoman Joyce Cusack. The event is hosted by the Minority Elected Officials of Volusia County, a nonprofit organization made up of past and incumbent minority government representatives. The motion failed 5-2. Councilwoman Billie Wheeler called the organization a political action committee, and stated that the organization has a candidate running against her in the next election. She said she wasn’t comfortable agreeing to sponsor

the event without knowing how much of that sponsorship money would go directly to the community center. County Council Chair Ed Kelley also referred to the nonprofit as a PAC, and thought it was too close to a political endorsement. Councilwoman Deb Denys agreed and added that the council will always support Cusack, and if Denys is invited to the event, she will write her own check of support. Councilman Ben Johnson also voted against. Only Councilwomen Heather Post and Barbara Girtman were in favor of the sponsorship. GirtSEE COUNCIL PAGE 4

Volunteers to build Ormond’s first mountain bike trail POLICE PRESENCE AT THE PARK

brush. Manis said no trees will be removed, as mountain bike trails use nature as obstacles. However, the trail will require a raised 150-foot-long boardwalk and bridge to navigate through some wetlands and a culvert, according to a city memo. The group’s professional environmentalist will be overseeing that task. “We’re a very ecologically minded group,” said Tim Cone, whom Manis called the mastermind behind the trail. Cone lives near the park and has always thought Riverbend would

be a good area for a trail. By the time the trail is completed, Cone said it could measure 5-7 miles. “It’s almost ready made for it,” Cone said. “Almost.” “Close,” Manis said. Currently, the mountain bikers have rallied the support of about 30 volunteers, and they’ve cleared roughly 3 miles. Civil designer Allen Kull is donating his time to provide blueprints for the boardwalk and bridge; Jim Moore, of PSP Dock Builders Inc., has agreed to provide all labor, equipment and pylons; the

For a group of local mountain bikers, Riverbend Nature Park screamed “potential.” The historic oaks, proximity to water, varying levels of elevation and tranquility in its woods could help make it a great riding trail. So, instead of waiting for the city of Ormond Beach or another organization to find a use for Riverbend, one of the city’s underutilized facilities, these mountain bikers decided to approach the city themselves. Through an all-volunteer effort — including a civil designer and an environmentalist — the mountain bikers approached Leisure Services Director Robert Carolin in January with a plan to build Ormond Beach’s first mountain bike trail at Riverbend. “This park has the perfect name — Nature,” said Mike Manis, one of the mountain bikers driving the effort. “Mountain bikers are all about nature.” The group presented their idea to the Leisure Services Advisory Board on Feb. 13, gaining unanimous approval, and their project was approved by the City Commission on March 21. Building the trail would consist of trimming vegetation and some under-

Riverbend Nature Park has been in the news for less-thanstellar reasons, also. In June 2017, eight men, ranging from 28-71 years old, were arrested at the park during a Volusia County Sheriff’s Office sting for lewd activities. A police car remains stationed in the park. However, Ormond Beach Police Public Information Officer Keith Walker said there were no arrests at Riverbend in 2018. There were 340 calls for service, but Walker that also included officers checking in on the radio as they patrolled the area. Walker said there were also 18 miscellaneous calls, which were all animal-related. Riverbend Nature Park is where the city releases oppossums, raccoons, snakes and the like when the animals are caught elsewhere in town. For the mountain bikers, the past is just that. “Its past, I’m not sure about, but the future is what we’re looking forward to,” Mike Manis said.

Steering the future of downtown New committee to gather input and make a plan. WAYNE GRANT

Examples of CRA improvements include Granada Boulevard and Vining Court streetscaping, Cassen Park docks, building improvement grants and stormwater upgrades.

REAL ESTATE EDITOR

Rockefeller Park, the site of festivals, outdoor movies, holiday events and more, was quite different 10 years ago. It was soggy after a rain making it difficult to use even the next day. There were no sidewalks or stage. The park was landscaped and amenities were added in 2009, using money from the Community Redevelopment Area, after it was listed as a goal on the 2006 Downtown Master Plan. Now, the city is set to update the plan and list other needed projects with the help of the 16 volunteers on the Downtown Steering Committee, who gathered March 28 at the Anderson-Price Memorial Building, 42 N. Beach St., for a kickoff meeting. The goal is to have a proposed master plan for the City Commission in September. In addition to action items, the committee can suggest legislative changes. The downtown CRA consists of Granada Boulevard from State Road A1A to Orchard Avenue including a few blocks north and south. In a CRA, a baseline is established for property taxes when it is formed, and as the property values rise, the added tax dollars can be used for improvements. The downtown CRA was established in 1985, sunsets in 2036 and raises about $1.5 million per year. The City Commission serves as the CRA Board.

BUT WHERE DO YOU PARK?

Peter Sechler, of GAI Consultants, of Orlando, helped develop the 2006 plan and has been hired to work on the new plan. He said he loves Florida’s beach communities, because they have their own history and culture, as well as their own unique challenges. At the first meeting, the members tossed out problems and possible solutions, and suggested what should be learned from the public, which will be invited to an April 17 meeting. Sechler said the goal is to get all of the input, find commonalities and end up with an action plan. Sechler said the city has been successful since the last master plan in improving areas, and now the goal is to tie them together. “You clearly have a healthier business environment,” Sechler said. “You have pieces and places to work with. How do you connect them?” Ferry boats across the river and shuttles were both thrown out for discussion to make the city more of a unified destination. “People need to feel they can park their car and visit an area,” Sechler said. Lori Tolland said travelers need to know when they get downtown that it’s a place to stop and look around. Others said visitors will not walk far on Granada Boulevard, because restaurants or shops they would visit are spread

out. The heavy traffic of Granada Boulevard also dissuades pedestrians, some said. Sechler said people generally don’t want to walk more than a couple of blocks, but will walk several blocks in a place like St. Augustine, because of all the things to do and see. Several business owners on the committee called the lack of parking on both the mainland and beachside a severe problem. Charles Lichtigman, of Charles Wayne Properties, which man-

ages Granada Plaza, said the lot has become parking for the beach. and a couple of times a year they have to tow cars. CONVENTION CENTER?

Debbie Cotton, CEO and president of the Chamber of Commerce, described the need for a convention center, saying she often must find a place outside the city to have a large meeting. Some members suggested the city could look at the recently purchased Riverside Church, 56 N. Beach St., for renovation into a convention center. The city is currently studying options for the church property, as well as the police station, which has been considered for relocation. Bonda Garrison, president of the Ormond Beach Historical

Society, said it’s been shown that people who travel for historic tourism spend more money than those who go to the beach. “How do we capture that?” she asked. A dining opportunity with a view of the river was suggested by Nancy Lohman. Other committee members said that a restaurant idea was proposed for the Bailey Riverbridge Gardens area several years ago but there was a lot of opposition. Sechler said it’s amazing how hard it is to find a place to eat and look at the water in Florida. The next meeting will be May 15, and Planning Director Steven Spraker cautioned the committee members to not discuss ideas with each other because the process is subject to the Florida Sunshine Law and all meetings must be public.

Ormond Beach buys S Old Kings Road residential property for $285,000 The city hopes the property will help increase its floodplain storage capacity — after the owner clears it out. JARLEENE ALMENAS NEWS EDITOR

Despite complicated negotiations between staff and the property owner, the Ormond Beach City Commission approved 4-1 the purchase of a residential property at 385 S. Old Kings Road for $285.000 at its meeting on Tuesday, April 2. The city had been interested in buying the property for several years because the land is next to

Central Park and would give the city a chance to increase its floodplain storage capacity. During a commission workshop on Feb. 19, City Engineer John Noble said the last city engineer had discussed the purchase of the property from owner Paul Duncan about 10 years ago, but that Duncan declined to sell because his mother was living in the house. Duncan’s mother has since died, and he has moved out of town. During negotiations, which City Attorney Randy Hayes called “challenging” during the Feb. 19 workshop, it was established that the city would hold $65,000 of the purchase price until Duncan removed all his personal items and property from the residence. The property currently has several abandoned vehicles, boats, tires and other household items

The city is giving Paul Duncan six months to remove all his items from the 385 S. Old Kings Road property.

scattered throughout, as well as 37 discarded 55-gallon drums, some of which have brake cleaning fluid. Duncan will be given six months to clean the property out, and will have the option to receive an additional three-month extension if the city sees he is making efforts to remove the items. “In my opinion, that’s far too long,” said City Commissioner Dwight Selby, who voted against the purchase in the commission’s consent agenda. “We shouldn’t do it that way.” While he said he supported the city acquiring the property, he didn’t support the terms in the contract. Selby was concerned about the $285,000 price, which was the average of two property appraisals, in addition to the environmental aspect that the city could be burdened with should Duncan not clean the property. Even with the $65,000 in escrow, Selby said the city can’t

know what the overall cost could end up being; the city had estimated $25,000-$50,000 at the workshop. “This property is so heavily wooded there could be other buried things,” Selby said. “For years and years and years, the owners have stockpiled all kinds of stuff.” Selby also briefly mentioned Duncan’s behavior at the March 5 commission meeting, calling his behavior “erratic” and a cause for concern. At that meeting, Duncan threatened to sue the city over allegations that a dump site had caused health problems for his family at the 385 S. Old Kings Road property. After the April 2 meeting, Hayes said that the city tracked down its history as far back as it could, and that no record of a dump site was ever found near Duncan’s property. He also said that decades earlier, the Duncan family had sold some of their neighboring land to another family; some of that land is now underwater since the Central Park ponds were created. Duncan had also requested the city name the lake after his family. Hayes said the commission was favorable toward paying tribute to the Duncan family in some way, but that aspect is not legally binding. A memorial bench or plaque were discussed at the workshop as possibilities. A couple of the other commissioners agreed with Selby’s concerns, but felt the acquisition was

MURALS, ANIMALS, RECYCLING  Murals and the possibility of neon signs, per a special exception, in the downtown district were approved on second reading at the April 2 meeting.  The city will require mural applicants to reimburse its $150 advertising cost, for murals undergoing the review process.  Ormond Beach’s animal tethering ordiance was updated to prevent animal cruelty.  Ormond Beach Mayor Bill Partington directed staff to find creative ways to recycle glass in the community after several commissioners, himself included, received calls from citizens over the city getting rid of glass recycling.

worth it. City Commissioner Troy Kent said he was approving this because of what happened in the 2009 flood. “I’ve gotta tell you, I don’t like those things either — I agree,” he said. “But I think the city getting that property and making sure that we do everything in our power so that our residents don’t deal with a flood issue like that again is a good thing.” Email Jarleene Almenas at jarleene@ormondbeachobserver. com.

council needed all the information before an item is discussed, but Post disagreed. She believes discussion is the time to share information. Both interrupted one another during their discussion, prompting Councilman Fred Lowry to comment on keeping decorum on the dais. “I’m getting tired of hearing arguing, back and forth and people just jumping in,” Lowry said. “I think we need to follow those things and be aware that there’s seven of us up here and not one.” During final comments, Johnson also spoke about decorum, saying he’s seen staff be disrespected when they’re trying to give information to the council. “Robert’s Rules of Orders were made for a reason, and that’s to keep decorum in a meeting, and we have to be more civil about not interrupting, not overriding each other,” Johnson said. “We have to have our chance to talk, but not an open argument on top on somebody else’s time to speak.” Post said she’s often see Robert’s Rules of Orders be used as a “sword”; Kelley disagreed. He said he had attended more meetings following Robert’s Rules than anyone else on the dais. Kelley also brought up Post’s travel to Washington, D.C., for the National Association of Counties legislative conference in early March, saying she didn’t notify them and that it went against the county’s travel policy. Kelley asked the county attorney to look into the issue. Post said she wasn’t aware that her travel was against the policy because she was representing Volusia County in an association the county belonged to. She also said she was fairly certain she did notify the council ahead of time that she was planning on attending the conference. At the end of the council meeting, she brought up the issue again and said she gained valuable knowledge at the conference. Kelley didn’t respond. He adjourned the meeting.

man, who is the vice chairwoman of the nonprofit, later addressed the council on its decision during her final comments. She said the council “doesn’t put their support where their intent is.” “I think it’s really important to understand the reason there’s a minority elected officials group is because there needs to be,” Girtman said. “There needs to be someone who looks out for communities that have a lesser voice — that have always had a lesser voice.” That’s why she sits on the dais today, she said. Without it, there would be no diversity on the council. “And it matters,” Girtman said. “We’re a diverse county that should be evolving in a very different way, and the issues that you bring to the table are not the issues that are the affecting a total community.” She said they could see the sponsorship as something political, or they could have seen it as a tribute to the investment Cusack gave in her years of ser-

vice. Council’s thinking should be more inclusive. Wheeler and Kelley later responded, saying that they held Cusack in high regard and that their vote was not about her. “It goes beyond that individual,” Girtman said. “That’s the part that none of you are connecting to.” She was interrupted by Kelley, as she said this during his final comment. Kelley told her it was a statement directed at her, and not a question. That was not the first time in the meeting that someone was interrupted. Kelley and Post engaged in a heated discussion over an item that was not on the agenda. Post had asked for a discussion about Florida House Bill 511 and Florida Senate Bill 744 (on the reclassification of dispatchers) to be placed on the agenda. However, this was not done. “If council gives direction, who is it that goes in the background and has a meeting and decides we’re not going to do that?” Post said. Kelley told her that the bill hadn’t been filed by March 21 when he met with the county manager and attorney to discuss the agenda items. The bill was filed on March 27. Kelley said

The Publix Supermarket in the Trails Shopping Center may soon be demolished and rebuilt, and the community and nearby residents are invited to attend a neighborhood meeting (6:30 p.m. Monday, April 8, at the AndersonPrice building at 42 N. Beach St.) to discuss the project. SO-Trails LLC is seeking to tear down the existing store and former CVS unit at 220 N. Nova Road and construct a new onestory Publix spanning 48,387 square feet in its place. The development also includes changes to the parking lot. The property currently has a Planned Business Development zoning. The plans for the project first reached Ormond Beach’s site plan review committee in August 2018. In an email, Planning Director Steven Spraker said the retail use is an allowed use within the shopping center and PBD. There is no Planning Board or City Commission review required. However, Spraker said that should there be a major issue at the neighborhood meeting that cannot be resolved, city staff is allowed to require a special exception for the project that will then need to be reviewed by the Planning Board and City Commission.

BUSINESS OBSERVER SON COMPLETES ASSISTED LIVING Dr. Gordon Forbes has accomplished his dream of building an assisted living facility, designed with his own mother in mind. Ormond Manor opened a month ago at 495 Sterthaus Drive, across from the YMCA. When shopping for a facility for his mother, he couldn’t find one he liked. So, he set out to build his own. His mother has since died, but he looks forward to caring for other seniors. “When I was working in the emergency room, the seniors were my favorite patients,” he said. “It was like treating my mom and dad, and that will continue.” The name was originally going

to be For Our Parents, but seemed awkward so it was changed. Forbes never liked the long hallways in facilities, so he has an atrium type design where rooms open up onto the main dining/ activity area. The nursing station looks like a concierge desk. The walls in the 16,000-squarefoot building are decorated with nature photos from Forbes’ trips, mostly federal parks. Forbes has quit his job as an emergency room doctor and works full time at Ormond Manor. It was an adventure constructing a building, Forbes said, but praises the help he got from Gary Roberts, president of Commercial Construction Inc. “They did a magnificent job,” he said.

LET T ERS

City must fix North Nova Road for safety Dear Editor: Just before 5 p.m. on Friday, March 22, I was about to leave the Avante Nursing Home when suddenly I heard a thunderous crash, followed by loud cries. As I walked toward the sound, a plume of dark smoke shot into the air, then quickly faded. Others nearby also heard or witnessed what had happened: A terrible accident involving a motorcycle and an SUV. People began rushing to the scene to see help. Some directed traffic, doing their best to keep a sense of calm. It took at least 10 minutes for the first responder to arrive — a fire truck with emergency personnel. I watched the scene in horror. What I saw was a mangled cycle and a body lying in the

road. Someone placed a partial cover over the victim. A short time later, the emergency crew replaced the makeshift cover with an “official” sheet — and then we knew for sure. Several bystanders wondered out loud where the police were. Two motorcycle policemen showed up, but it was at least 15-20 minutes after the accident. It was a devastating scene. The site of the accident occurred at the main entrance to the Trails Shopping Center. Directly across the street is Avante Nursing Home. This juncture is dangerous, and the city of Ormond needs to fix the problem — now. By the time I left the area (around 6:15 p.m.), the body of the person who had been killed was still lying in the

road. There was no ambulance, no EVAC or other vehicle to remove his body. By then, the police had surrounded the area. This was a grievous and senseless tragedy. No amount of blame or fault-finding can bring that person back to life. Sadly, it is not the first time that someone has died at that location. It is imperative, therefore, that we as a community demand an immediate change to that section of Nova Road. What was once a two-lane truck route is now a six-lane highway. The distance along Nova from Granada north to Wilmette is probably less than a mile, yet in recent years it’s become a race track. Today it takes a steady eye and quick reflexes to suc-

cessfully maneuver through turning traffic and oncoming speedsters. Why is this area not patrolled heavily by the Ormond Beach police? Also, there is no crosswalk in the area of the Trails Shopping Center. We citizens need and deserve better protection. There should be a stoplight on Nova at the intersection of the Trails Shopping Center and Old Kings Road. If a local developer can get his way with halting traffic on West Granada so as to accommodate his “Wawa development,” then so should we citizens have a stoplight for safety purposes on North Nova Road.

Response to letter from Sipeses

18-foot deep hole. If the Sipes or anyone at CANDO 2 actually took the time and accepted any of the multiple offers my father has made to them to sit down and speak about the project and answer any questions, maybe they wouldn’t be making themselves look very uneducated, claiming a gas tank buried 18 feet underground is going to “float away.” 2. Of the 8.6 acres of residential property that was rezoned, only 2.2 acres of it was rezoned commercial; the rest was rezoned from residential to conservation, and those 2.4 acres are in no way connected to Wawa or the car wash, the two things they continually are bringing up. 3. The Wawa Gas station was not a special exception as they claim. It was added as a permitted use within the Planned Business Development. 4. You do not have to have a PBD to assemble adjoining parcels. This process is done all the time with or without a PBD on both the commercial and residential property and can be approved at staff level with a Unity of Title Agreement. Claiming this is a “loophole” is again incorrect, further proof that the writer has no knowledge of the Land Development Code within our city. 5. They also talk about surrounding homeowners. The Sipeses live five miles away from Granada Pointe. It’s admirable that they are thinking of their fellow Ormond Beach neighbors; however, have the Sipeses actually taken the time to speak to the residents who are actually adjacent to the development? We have, and the majority of them support it and look forward to it being completed. Some have even written letters or spoken at City Commission meetings in support of the project. The rest of their letter is opinion, and they are entitled to that just like everyone else. If there is one thing that I can take away as a positive from their letter is that, in their own words, it is their “final thoughts” on the project. Thankfully that means I won’t have to waste time out of my day correcting their false statements anymore. I also wanted to address one opinion letter that was recently published. On March 21, one writer claimed that Paul Holub did not make any contributions to Susan Persis’ campaign, and

maybe his lack of contribution is why she voted against the car wash. That is false. My father (and myself) fully supported and campaigned for Susan Persis during the election, and we both continue to fully support her regardless of her position on the car wash. We will always support those who we feel are the most qualified to represent Ormond Beach with their leadership and decision making.

and said before, what I deliver is honesty from the heart. You have to sit with the peons in the peanut gallery to understand our feelings. The City Commission, in our eyes, does not care for, respect, or care about our wishes, wants or needs. As the “new kid on the block,” the general public was looking for more out of you than just defending your four buddies — and their buddies. You and the other four who sit on your thrones in the city chambers during the commission meetings should have more compassion for what is right for the general public and the city of Ormond Beach, which we so dearly care about. As I stated at the March 21 meeting, many residents do not show up for these meetings as they are frustrated with the closed minded, and controlling, attitude of the commission. Let’s take one simple example of how blinders do not let the commission see: $1.25 million has been dedicated for the placement of a floating dock at Cassen Park — great for the few who have the “boatability” to use same. In the meantime, countless individuals utilize Nova Road (in the general vicinity of Publix). Wouldn’t that same $1+ million serve more people somehow in some manner to keep them safe on a road in an area that has been suspect for longer than I have been a resident of this community? Finally, Mr. Mayor, for perhaps one week, I shall have the last word. Every commission decision ends with the commission itself taking as much time as it needs to render a decision, thereby getting in the last word. That was the case at the March 21 meeting where you took offense to the comments made by the various residents who spoke against the car wash, and the commission in general. You referred to them as “disingenuous.” Well sir, in my opinion it takes a narcissist to label an adversary as disingenuous. In fact, due to our genuine and sincere care for the city of Ormond Beach, I find your commentary most insincere about the most loyal citizens of the city. Whatever happened to government by the people, for the people — maybe even with the people?

Dear Editor: I am Paul Holub’s son. I would like to take a moment to respond to the Sipeses’ recent letter to the editor, as well as a guest editorial printed in your paper recently. Once again, the Sipeses are being allowed to spout off falsities without any repercussions. When I speak at a City Commission meeting, or through a letter to the editor, I am also representing my father and our company, and anything I say or write has to be backed up with facts. The Sipeses, however, have taken the approach of our current political climate and the “say anything you want” way of trying to spread misinformation. So, like I had to do many times during the election season, I am writing this to continue to correct the lies that they continue to perpetuate to our community about the Granada Pointe project. 1. They claim that the concrete slab with rebar hooks that is located on the Granada Pointe property is there because they are “needed when a gas station is on a floodplain, so that the tanks won’t float away.” First off, while the property is still currently designated as being in a floodplain, that is only because FEMA has not come and surveyed the land to confirm that it no longer is. The proposed floor elevation for WaWa and every building that will go onto Granada Pointe will take it out of the floodplain, and this will be confirmed when FEMA amends their designation as will be requested when the WaWa or any building is completed. That was the whole point of adding fill to the property, to make sure it would no longer be in the floodplain. Second, the concrete slab with hooks isn’t going to “float away,” because it will be buried with the tank on top of the slab, 18 feet underground. If the writer of the letter knew anything factual about this project whatsoever, they would know that the concrete slab is usually fabricated above ground, and then lowered by crane (the reason for the hooks) into the excavated area where it will provide the foundation for the tanks. It is a lot easier to form and pour the slab above ground than it is in an

BRYAN SHAFFER Ormond Beach

Editor’s Note: The water reservoir in Granada Pointe is in an area that was rezoned from residential to open space/ conservation and serves as a stormwater management area. The Wawa, a convenience/gas store, could not have been built without a Planning Business Development zoning classification. The restaurant with a drive-thru, no longer in the plans, was a Special Exception under the original zoning designation.

Listen to us in the peanut gallery Dear Editor: The past 12 months have been a whirlwind filled with emotions and political ups and downs. Yes, the City Commission incumbents won their respective seats along with their hand-selected newcomer. As we slide into the new political year, it became evident why it was so necessary for the developer to front the City Commission to their current positions. This maneuver guaranteed him clear sailing with the Wawa and car wash projects. Ms. Persis, you defended the developer and called me down for my commentary about him during my speech back in February regarding the car wash issue. What was said during my allotted three minutes was merely fact. There was nothing incorrect. No lies. On March 21, you were now defending the City Commission, specifically the mayor, regarding my feelings about the City Commission, especially the mayor. His choice of words to push the car wash issue to a final positive vote was, truly, a contrivance of narcistic behavior. Again, there was negative response to my commentary. As I have written

County seeks rezoning of Ormond-by-the-Sea homes The rezoning is meant to help the homeowners, county staff said. NEWS EDITOR

Volusia County is planning to rezone about 1,900 homes in Ormond-by-the-Sea from an urban single-family residential R-4 zoning to urban singlefamily residential R-5 — a slight administrative change meant to help put the homes in compliance with dimensional requirements. Clay Ervin, county director of Growth and Resource Management, said at a workshop on Tuesday, April 2, that 90% of the homes east of John Anderson Drive, west of Ocean Shore Boulevard, north of Sandcastle Drive and south of Michael Crotty Bicentennial Park do not comply with the current zoning dimensions. R-5 requires a minimum lot width of 75 feet and lot area of 7,500 square feet; Ervin said most homes in that area are in smaller lots already. R-5 also requires a minimum of 8 feet for side yard setbacks, and R-4 only requires 5 feet, which is what Ervin said the majority of the homes abide by. Why does this matter when some of these homes have been there since the 1950s? Because residents seeking permits to make changes to their homes cannot do so without obtaining a variance. If something were to happen to the homes, they could not be rebuilt as they were, Ervin said.

Many residents at the workshop were wary. They asked whether this would increase the density in the peninsula in allowing someone to come in and build three houses on what used to be two lots. Ervin said existing lot sizes don’t allow for this. “This is not being done for private development,” Ervin said. “It’s being done because we are torturing you with variances, and making it harder for you all to get building permits.” Some residents asked whether this rezoning could have something to do with converting to Ormond Beach sewer from septic, along with the possibility of annexing into the city of Ormond Beach. “We are not trying to force annexation,” Ervin said. “We are not trying to force sewers.” Volusia County Councilwoman Heather Post, who was present at the workshop,said she also questioned the county, at first. The current zoning isn’t working for the residents, she explained. She added that this is happening because the county is focusing more on Ormond-by-the-Sea, and staff is trying to figure out ways to become more efficient. Rezoning will be discussed at the county’s Planning and Land Development Regulation Commission May 16, before coming before the County Council July 2 and Aug. 6.

Disruption at Pine Trail Elementary Ormond Beach Police arrested a 36-year-old man who trespassed Pine Trail Elementary while school was in session, threatened staff and screamed vulgarities in the vicinity of children on March 29. According to a police report, James Richards, of Ormond Beach, was there to pick up a student, who had been staying with their grandfather because of issues at home. Because of this, the teacher told the receptionist to call the principal or the Department of Children and Families. The receptionist told Richards to wait in the lobby. Richards said he was going to use the restroom,

caller said the man was asking for money and looking for cigarettes — the butts, to be specific. An officer responded, finding the 49-year-old transient man. He was issued another trespass warning and taken to jail.

Two Ormond Beach roommates, a 28-year-old man and woman, were told to separate by police after they got into a physical argument which involved the woman spitting on the man in hopes he would catch her Scarlet fever. According to a police report, the pair began arguing after the woman asked the man to get her food since she was sick. Because of battery from each and conflicting stories, police made no arrests.

but he headed toward the playground without permission. Once there, the student’s teacher saw Richards approaching his pupils “screaming obscenities” at the student. The teacher told police that Richards began cursing at him. The school guardian and principal escorted Richards away. The student told his teacher that they were afraid of Richards and that he had hit them in the past. Their grandfather came to pick up the student. The principal told police that she could smell alcohol on Richards’ breath. The report states that Richards was agitated with police, and after continued aggression, was taken to jail.

Seabreeze’s Nate Thompson and Cameron Bowling go head-to-head in East Coast Florida Boys Soccer All-Star Game.

Friendly Fire The East Coast All-Star game features Flagler and Volusia counties’ top seniors. RAY BOONE SPORTS EDITOR

arly in the first half of the East Coast Florida Boys Soccer All-Star Game on the night of Friday, March 29, forward Nate Thompson found the perfect opening to score. He beat his defender down the field and was one-on-one in the box with the opposing team’s goal keeper, Cameron Bowling.

Thompson and Bowling both starred at Seabreeze High School the past four years, and now they had the opportunity to play against each other. Thompson wanted nothing more than to score on his former goalie, and Bowling absolutely could not let his longtime friend score on him. Bowling dove toward the ball, stuffing Thompson’s shot attempt. Thompson gave Bowling a friendly shove as he trotted back down the field. “I wanted to score on him so bad,” Thompson said with a smile after his team’s 4-2 win. “Cam did a good job. He’s a great goalie, and I’m OK with it.” Bowling added: “If I let him score, I would not have heard the end of it.” It was the fifth year the event, which features Flagler and Volusia counties’ top seniors, has been held — this time at the Daytona State College Soccer Stadium. Connor Rioux, Will Crotty, Benny Hartsell, Thompson and Bowling represented Seabreeze, and Kyle Cavedo, Derick Nyamison, Danny Nunez and Malik Alkhateeb represented Mainland. Rioux and Bowling were on the same team, while Crotty, Hartsell and Bowling were on the opposing team. “It was fun playing with all my buddies again,” Bowling said. “I’m honored to be in this game. I never thought I would be here when I was a freshman.” Despite it being a friendly allstar game, the competition was still fierce. There were several times when Crotty and Thompson fought for the ball against one another, and late in the second half, Bowling and Thompson went head-to-head again — this time in the field. Thompson had the last laugh, dribbling past his former teammate with ease. “We’re a competitive group. We like to go in hard,” Thompson said with a laugh. “We don’t play soft.” However, the chance to play with, and against, his former Sandcrabs teammates is a memory that will always be cherished. “This is something that will probably never happen again,” he said. “It’s a great send off as we go into college and go our separate ways.” Seabreeze’s Nate Thompson dribbles the ball against former teammate Benny Hartsell.

Bucs prevail against Pirates 6-0

Mainland’s Alexa Wilson dodges a defender against Matanzas.

RAY BOONE SPORTS EDITOR

Mainland’s Asia Hubbert leaps into the air for a catch against Matanzas.

Down a touchdown with 30 seconds remaining in regulation, Matanzas opted for a lateral pass on fourth down. The receiver who caught the ball spotted a fellow receiver streaking downfield with several steps on Buccaneers defender Leesha Henry. A touchdown would tie the game, and the Pirates could possibly take the lead with a successful extra point conversion. Mainland head coach Scott Wilson was as calm as ever as he watched the ball descend toward the receiver. “I’ve been in this too long for the heart to flutter,” he said. Henry caught up, making

the throw a difficult catch. The receiver dropped it, and the Buccaneers were able to run out the clock, defeating the Pirates 6-0 on the afternoon of Tuesday, April 2, at Matanzas High School. Mainland quarterback Alexa Wilson completed 15-of-23 passes for 133 yards. She also threw one touchdown and one interception. The Buccaneers’ only score was a 20-yard throw to Henry with 1:27 to play in the opening half. The Buccaneers secured the No. 2 seed in their district, behind only rival and No. 1 seed Seabreeze. “We’ve just got to produce and get better every week,” Wilson said.

“It was a defensive battle on both sides of the ball, and our defense prevailed.”

Provision Packs now helps feed students at six schools, and is working to add a seventh. JARLEENE ALMENAS NEWS EDITOR

n just 16 months, local nonprofit Provision Packs outgrew its 1,000-square-foot pantry. The program doubled. It went from serving around 200 students each week at three schools, to almost 400 at six schools — Pathways Elementary, Tomoka Elementary, Ormond Beach Elementary, Ortona Elementary, Holly Hill School and Pine Trail Elementary. It’s a rapid growth that bewildered Provision Packs founder Carrie Torres. With a seventh school, Osceola Elementary, on the way, and with bags falling off the shelves onto others at their U.S. 1 facility, Torres knew it was time to find a bigger space. Provision Packs found

a home at 289 Walnut St., which used to house a glass and window warehouse manufacturer. Volunteers gutted the building, and through community donations, the 2,000-square-foot facility is the now the hub where over 3,300 meals are packed a week for local students. “We could double the amount of children we feed in this facility,” Torres said. Provision Packs’ aim is to prevent childhood hunger in local students by providing them with 6-8 meals a week plus snacks. It’s a mission that Torres said couldn’t be possible without the community rallying behind the nonprofit. About five years ago, the program started with three kids at Pathways Elementary. Amber Azzarello, secondgrade gifted teacher at Pathways, has witnessed Provision Packs’ progression over the years. Her son was in the same kindergarten class as Torres’ daughter. Since her students are currently learning about community problemsolving, she hoped that by taking them on a field trip to Provision Packs’ new facility would help them understand the needs of the community. None of her students have that need, but she thought it was important they go outside their elements and see it. “I really thought that [Torres] was inspiring — that she saw this need and problem in the community and solved it, and is still solving it even further and more broad in our community,” Azzarello said. As a teacher, she sees students every week receive Provision Packs at school. She sees their excitement to have food in their hands, so much that Azzarello

Ormond residents star in ‘Man of La Mancha’ at Daytona Playhouse Dreaming the impossible dream ...

IF YOU GO... ‘MAN OF LA MANCHA’ When: 7:30 p.m. on March 29-30, April 4-6, 12-13; and 2 p.m. on March 31, April 7, 14 Where: Daytona Playhouse, 100 Jessamine Blvd. Details: Tickets cost $23 for adults, $22 for seniors, and $14 for youth 18 and under. Visit DaytonaPlayhouse.org or call 255-2431.

JARLEENE ALMENAS NEWS EDITOR

The Daytona Playhouse hopes its audiences will dream the Impossible Dream with Miguel de Cervantes as “Man of La Mancha” graces the stage for the next three weekends. The classic tale about Don Quixote, told in a musical format with a live orchestra will feature Earl Levine as Cervantes and Quixote, and Michael Nunn as Sancho. The musical will detail how Don Quixote seeks knighthood save Aldonza, played by Ormond Beach resident Kelly Rivera. It is a play within a play, with Cervantes telling the story of Don Quixote to fellow prisoners while he waits a hearing with the Spanish Inquisition. “I think it takes you by surprise because it’s slightly comedic throughout and then it takes this serious, very philosophical tone that has a true message that you don’t expect,” Rivera said. This was her stepfather’s favorite show. Having grown up around theater, she said she wanted to do something special for him. As she listened to the score, and saw how a role in this musical would combine all her singing and acting training, she knew this was something she wanted to be a part of. “I actually fell in love with the role while revisiting it even though I knew it as a kid,” Rivera said.

Tom Hansen, Earl Levine, Jim Scott, Alex Brunning, Edward Atta, John Hardebeck, Joshua Lingo and Stephen Martino in “Man of La Mancha.”

The musical will be the first time Ormond Beach resident Roger Danforth Sr. acts onstage. He used to be an usher at the Playhouse, and now he’s starring as one of the guards in “Man of La Mancha.” “It’s very exciting,” Danforth Sr. said. “I get to meet a lot of very interesting people, a lot of unique personalities and just an extended family, more or less.” He’s not the only one that was drawn to the stage for this production. While Ormond Beach resident Tom Hansen has been directing for a number of years,

this will be the second time in 17 years he’s been onstage. It’s his favorite show, he said. Hansen saw the original 1965 production with Richard Kiley. “I’ve listened to the album like a thousand times,” Hansen said. “I could probably sing all Aldonza’s songs.” The play also showcases a range of ages between the actors, Hansen said. He’s the eldest at 71 years old, and Mainland High School junior Joshua Lingo is the youngest at 16. For Lingo, this is not his first exposure to Don Quixote. He

studied “Man of La Mancha” in his Spanish class last year. It ended up being the subject material for his final exam, which he passed. “Now, thanks to this musical, I’m able to go to college,” said Lingo, since passing a language class is a requirement for graduation. Ormond Beach resident Dawn Sauer said “Man of La Mancha” has touched her. She said she loves being at the Playhouse, both and off-stage. In this production, she’s playing a housekeeper. “It starts to be like a family,” she said.
