‘Catastrophic’ Plantation Bay wastewater plant gets design work Residents propose a less expensive solution, but officials are skeptical. BRIAN MCMILLAN EXECUTIVE EDITOR

Despite dozens of residents asking them to do the opposite, Flagler County commissioners on March 18 voted to move forward with phase 2 of design to build a new wastewater treatment plant in Plantation Bay, a gated community plagued by water trouble for years. Residents wanted swifter, less expensive solutions. County Engineer Faith Alkhatib said phase 1 construction should be complete by Aug. 1 but that further problems were discovered; phase 2 is now necessary. Approving design would enable the county to complete construction of the next phase well ahead of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s July 31, 2022, deadline. The county has requested funding help from the state, Commissioner Dave Sullivan said, but Plantation Bay residents are concerned that the cost will fall to them and that they are powerless to stop it. Former County Commission candidate Jane Gentile-Youd said design work was unnecessary and a waste of time. She added, “Nobody has mentioned who has to pay.” Plantation Bay resident Fred

Manzolillo called the situation a “catastrophe” and warned that Plantation Bay will be come a “wasteland” if the problem was not fixed soon. “I’m shocked by what’s going on,” Plantation Bay resident Mary Ann Redden said. “ … I can’t believe I’m standing here, having to argue for clean water and getting wastewater that works.” Some residents in attendance asked that the county instead pursue a $1.8 million solution from a Kansas-based company called Aero-Mod. Neither Alkhatib nor Interim County Administrator Jerry Cameron was aware of Aero-Mod’s specifications but were skeptical of such an inexpensive solution for what their experience indicates should cost more like $7 million to $10 million. County Commissioner Joe Mullins proposed that the county vote to approve the next phase of design but also to have Cameron explore the Aero-Mod solution as well. The motion was approved 5-0.

MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS Patients are struggling as Flagler’s number of Medicaid mental health care providers drops to one JONATHAN SIMMONS NEWS EDITOR

F

lagler County had the highest suicide rate per capita of any county in the state of Florida in 2017, and has been among the highest in the state for years. Meanwhile, it has consistently ranked near the bottom statewide in terms of availability of mental health care providers, particularly for patients on Medicaid. Now, the situation has worsened: One of the only two mental health care facilities in the county that accepted Medicaid switched to self-pay-only, leaving patients who can’t afford to pay out of pocket scrambling to find someone who can treat them and reauthorize prescriptions that could cause withdrawal symptoms if stopped suddenly. “They’re showing up for their regular, scheduled appointments to get this medication ... and they’re being told, ‘Oh, we can’t see you today unless you have $60 cash,’” said Jill Crawford, a former patient at the facility, known as the Flagler Mental Health Center. Rhonda Harvey, the chief operations officer at StewartMarchman-Act Behavioral Healthcare — now the only mental health facility in the county that accepts Medicaid — called that displacement of patients “a crisis,” and said the county has an urgent need for more funding for mental health care. “It’s just really distressing to see the number of people that are feeling hopeless, helpless and with no choice other than suicide,” she said. SMA recently received a federal grant to fund a suicide prevention effort, she said, and Flagler will be one of the counties involved. “But it is an overwhelming challenge,” she said. CONFUSION

Crawford was one of several people who contacted the Palm Coast Observer and reached out to community organizers saying they were Medicaid patients at the Flagler Mental Health Center, couldn’t be seen, and were worried about running out of medication. The Flagler Mental Health Center has not responded to requests for comment. But a sign posted on the facility’s door stated that the facility is now not accepting insurance. The business’ registered owner — Dr. Joseph Comfort, an anaesthesiologist, who went by the name “Duke” — died in late January. Some patients said they had showed up for their regular

appointments and found the facility closed, with a lock on the door. Later, the facility reopened, but was only accepting cash. Now, people are able to pay with credit cards, but still can’t use Medicaid or insurance. One local pharmacist posted on Facebook in early March: “Thoughts on Flagler Mental Health Center locking its doors ... suggestions for patients?” That prompted more than two dozen comments, including by frustrated patients who said they’d called the facility and found the phone line cut off. Its main phone line, posted on its website, was not in service. Some patients, including Crawford, reached out to School Board member Colleen Conklin, who’s helped lead efforts to increase mental health care awareness and availability in Flagler. Conklin was in Australia when Crawford contacted her, but quickly responded, Crawford said, and began trying to organize resources, as did Carrie Baird, executive director of Flagler Cares. “I’m concerned about very vulnerable people who have been taking psychiatric drugs for a very long time,” Baird said. “Some of those medications they’ve been taking are dangerous to just stop taking cold turkey.” Baird, working with the Department of Children and Families, compiled a one-page list of resources for displaced patients. (Find details by searching for this story on www.palmcoastobserver.com.) RESOURCES

Crawford, seeking resources for herself and a friend who’d been an FMHC patient, called around and was repeatedly directed to SMA Behavioral Healthcare. SMA serves the north-central Florida area and has a branch in Bunnell, on Justice Lane. But when Crawford called in February and said she was running out of medication and needed reauthorization, a receptionist at SMA told her SMA wouldn’t be able to schedule an appointment for her with someone with prescribing authority until April, she said. “Stewart-Marchman — I’m glad they’re there, but there’s nowhere you can go in (a medication) crisis,” Crawford said. “The best course of action right now, if I were in crisis, I would pay $60 to go to Flagler Mental Health Care.” She noted that some people just can’t do that. Crawford said she’s since switched from Medicaid to private insurance, and has more

options. “It certainly doesn’t sound as efficient as I would like to think, but she may very well have been told that,” said Harvey, the SMA Behavioral COO. “It depends on how she presented and if there was a sense of urgency. Typically, if we have to establish a new patient, that takes a little longer, but typically that’s three to four weeks out.” SMA has now carved out time to see displaced Flagler Mental Health Center patients more promptly, Harvey said. “We have set aside specific walk-in times where people can come in and be seen immediately,” she said. (Screening services are Mondays from 8 a.m. to noon. Patients can call Coleen at 236-1718 or walk in to the clinic at 301 Justice Lane, Bunnell.) There’s one potential problem: SMA Behavioral Healthcare doesn’t prescribe some of the medications that the Flagler Mental Health Center prescribes, including benzodiazepines — a class of drugs that includes Xanax and Valium and is used to treat anxiety, panic attacks and insomnia — and medical marijuana. “If [displaced patients] are needing help for a psychiatric disordered but they’re not currently on one of those meds, then we can enroll them and see them pretty quickly,” Harvey said. If they need benzodiazepines, she said, “then we’ll connect them with a care coordinator,” who can help direct them to someone who could prescribe the medication. Currently, Harvey and Baird said, the quickest route for patients who need benzodiazepines seems to through Impower (see www.impowerfl.org), a Central Florida-based nonprofit that can prescribe those medications and has psychiatrists who can quickly see patients by Telehealth — that is, over a secure internetbased connection — to reauthorize meds, and has been reporting a wait time of one to two days. “If people are overwhelmed and intimidated by that process, of tele-psychiatry, that’s really the purpose for a care coordinator,” Harvey said. “Just knowing where to turn, what person to call. It’s not intended to add another level of bureaucracy to the process: It’s meant to be short term; it’s just meant to make sure people get linked to services.”

“They’re people and lives. They’re human beings, and we have to treat them with dignity and give them hope again.” JAMES BELLINO, pastor at Church on the Rock

at the public safety meeting held on the morning of Wednesday, March 13. “I know what I can and cannot do [with this property],” said Bellino, who is a licensed contractor in Florida. “But to turn a blind eye? There’s no quick fix. There’s no easy pill to swallow that’s going to make it go away. ... I have a facility that I’m willing to open up. You have to partner with the people who are already on the ground and who have a heart to do this.” County Commissioner Joe Mullins and Palm Coast City Councilman Jack Howell both discussed the idea of creating a task force to analyze the situation and then to present possible solutions. Mullins laid out a threepronged approach: new laws to give law enforcement tools to counter panhandling and camping in undesirable areas, coordination with an agency to determine individual needs of the homeless, and a program to pick up homeless and deliver them to an agency. Trish Giaccone, the executive director of the Family Life Center, had to remind them that the county already has an existing task force — and has had one for years. “I just feel like we’re putting the apple before the cart,” she said. “It really needs to be the folks that are currently engaging in the

conversation. ... I just don’t think it’s prudent for us as a committee to kind of swoop in and say, ‘This is what we want.’ Let’s talk to the people who are doing this day in and day out for the last several years and say, ‘What do you want to see happening, and how do we work together?’” The council eventually settled, voting to assign the existing homeless and housing task force the job of coming up with recommendations within 30 days. Mullins also spoke of the possibility of establishing new ordinances — like those most recently adopted by St. Augustine and Daytona Beach. But County Attorney Al Hadeed cautioned the council about instituting such legislation. “It is a very treacherous path to fashion a statute or a rule to address homelessness or panhandling in particular,” he said. “It hasn’t been tested judicially, and I would expect that it would be tested judicially.” The meeting ended with several homeless people addressing the council. Bonnie Weygandt said she became homeless after her husband of 37 years decided he didn’t love her anymore after she had three strokes. “I didn’t do anything wrong,” Weygandt said through tears. “I need a place to live. Please help me.” A homeless woman named Phyllis Adams, who consoled Weygandt after she broke down into tears, also spoke. “You’re saying the same thing over and over,” she said. “I don’t think you’ll ever make a change.” “Thank you. For nothing,” she added as she stormed out the door.

For nearly 1 1/2 hours, James Bellino sat quietly in a corner of the room at the Flagler County Emergency Operations Center, listening to members of the Public Safety Coordinating Council pass and amend motions to deal with the homeless issue that faces Flagler County and its cities. Then came the public comments. Bellino, a pastor at Church on the Rock in Bunnell, has been involved with the homeless for several years. He bathes them. He feeds them. He takes time to listen to their problems, their worries, their fears. On March 6, the Palm Coast Observer reported that county officials contemplated collaborating with the Church on the Rock as a place to relocate the homeless living in the woods behind the Flagler County Public Library while brush and debris were being cleared. However, after a meeting between Interim County Administrator Jerry Cameron, Bunnell City Manager Alvin Jackson and Police Chief Tom Foster, it was determined that doing so would violate Bunnell’s city codes. Bellino said nobody talked to him about the potential collaboration. He found out about it by reading the Observer’s story. He’s never met, nor even seen, Jackson before. Jackson was in attendance

County commissioner believes churches are ‘enabling’ the homeless situation

RAY BOONE SPORTS EDITOR

Some county officials want Bunnell’s Church on the Rock to be involved in formulating solutions to the homeless situation in Flagler County, while one county commissioner took issue with the church’s current actions regarding the homeless. Church on the Rock, located at 2200 N. State St., provides food, showers, clothes and more to the area’s homeless and has done so for several years. However, District 4 County Commissioner Joe Mullins said the involvement of churches and other religious organizations could be making the situation worse. “What it’s doing is it’s spreading the problem around instead of deterring it,” Mullins said. “Taking them once a week to shower or eat once or twice a week, that doesn’t help these people. It enables their situation. That’s a handout, not a hand up.” He added: “I think it’s wonderful that we’ve got churches who want to help and do things. But we as their government need to lay out a policy and structure for what really helps these individuals.” Church on the Rock pastor James Bellino disagreed with Mullins’ statement. “When you have elected offi-

cials categorize any segment of our society as criminals, drug addicts and abusers, you demonize them,” he said. Bellino compared the church’s actions to the government establishing methadone clinics and equipping law enforcement with NARCAN. “Are there bad apples in that bunch? Absolutely,” he said. “But should we still give showers and feed people who might be on drugs? Yeah, we should. I’m not going to stop.” Bellino met with Interim County Administrator Jerry Cameron on Friday, March 15, and Cameron asked Bellino and the church to come up with a solution to the county’s homelessness. Homeless advocate Denise Calderwood presented the idea of opening the Flagler Transformation Center, housed by the Church on the Rock, which would be a come-as-you-are service center for single homeless people. “Sometimes government gets in its own way,” Calderwood said. “You need other solutions from other parties.” But despite the confusing pushback from some and pull from others, Bellino believes the faith community needs to step up. “We shouldn’t rely on the government to solve all of our problems,” he said. “I don’t want to be a social worker. I have no interest in being in government. But I will speak and continue to do what is right. That’s the bottom line. I cannot stop what I’m mandated to do from a belief standpoint.”

“Are there bad apples in that bunch? Absolutely,” he said. “But should we still give showers and feed people who might be on drugs? Yeah, we should. I’m not going to stop.” JAMES BELLINO, Church on the Rock pastor

Avoid repeating history of sick Ops Center

JAMES MANFRE GUEST WRITER

Now that the Flagler County Commission is prepared to wrestle with how to solve the sick Sheriff’s Operation Center, it is important that the process that led the county here be reexamined so the same mistakes are not repeated. In 2012, the commission decided to build a new Operation Center and place it in the Courthouse Annex that had been unoccupied since 2003 when the new courthouse was opened. When I became sheriff in 2013, the city of Bunnell requested that the court annex be ceded to the city for a larger Bunnell City Hall. The county agreed, which set the county on a search for a new site. There were three possibilities proposed: the Emergency

Sheriff should ditch Green Roof Inn shtick

L ETTERS

THURSDAY, MARCH 21, 2019

Dear Editor: We have a cowboy sheriff and a dysfunctional sheriff’s office here in Flagler County. Sheriff Rick Staly thinks he’s Volusia’s Mike Chitwood and Arizona’s Joe Arpaio rolled into one would-be media star. He preens and struts about while the jail population has doubled under his administration and prisoners die. He shows utter disdain for the citizens who fall into his grasp with his childish “Green Roof Inn” sign. Is his visible contempt rubbing off on deputies and support staff? Is his cavalier attitude a contributing factor to the recent deaths of his “guests”? Neither Sheriff Staly nor his deputies or staff are judges or juries. The sheriff should set a proper example to all by promoting the humane treatment of those unfortunate enough to fall under his jurisdiction. And get rid of the Green Roof Inn sign, Sheriff. Leave the comedy routine to the late night

Operation Center that already housed the Sheriff’s Communication Center; an addition to the courthouse; or the old Bunnell Police Department Building across the street from the courthouse. All three options made sense from a logistics standpoint, and the costs ranged from a low of $2 million to redesign the Emergency Operation Center to $4 million for the courthouse addition. All three options were turned down by the county. A new option was then proposed by the county: Purchase the abandoned hospital site at a cost of $1.3 million. Although this made little fiscal or operational sense in that the other three options were already owned by the county and were closer to the county center, the purchase was approved. There were two suggestions made by county staff and myself: 1) that a project manager be hired to oversee the design and construction of the new facility as was done by the city of Palm Coast when they built their new city hall and 2) that the old hospital building, which had sat abandoned for more

than a decade, be torn down. Several commissioners agreed, but the county administration turned down both requests. During the demolition process, it was discovered that bats had infested the entire structure and there was mold in areas of the roof due to leaks. Also, the contractor found that the cast iron wastewater pipes had cracked and had to be jackhammered out of the concrete slab and removed through the plastic vapor barrier. This was reported to county administration. The county also decided not to demolish the adjoining patient wings which were filled with debris, mold and garbage from trespassers. Once the building was occupied in November 2015, there was an odor emanating into the building from the decrepit patient wing building, and there was leakage through the doors closest to the patient wings when it rained. Despite these conditions, the county refused to demolish the patient wings until 15 months later and did so without obtaining the proper Department

of Environmental Protection permits and without utilizing an experienced demolition contractor. Within six months, the first serious symptoms were reported. A top detective then felt compelled to write a personal letter to the sheriff’s administration, begging them to take the illnesses seriously. The county administration should now hire the project manager it should have used from the beginning to make an objective appraisal of the costs of remediating the structure or determining that it cannot be reoccupied. This appraisal can then be part of any lawsuit if there is one brought against the contractor. None of the present County Commission or county administrator were in office or were part the poor decisions of the past administration. I am hopeful that they will learn from these past mistakes and choose the fiscally responsible option with the health of our hardworking law enforcement personnel in mind.

Did I misinterpret his promise to drain the swamp (what with all those indictments and convictions, it’s confusing)? By now seeing her blank look I paused to take a breath and she started repeating, over and over, “God Bless you,” which was nice but rather missed the point of my questions.

Everybody needs help. Parents are trying to raise children in an unsafe society. Teachers with students who come with so many problems. Children overwhelmed with social media. Many agencies and organizations are trying to deal with these problems on limited funds and volunteers. Believers are taught that when one of us hurts, we all hurt. We are taught that serving God does not stop when we leave our houses of worship. God is always with us who seek peace and demonstrate love. Changes will come when we all work together. Perhaps a coalition of different faiths and race to discuss issues and encourage participation with community groups. Prayer and hard work can bring on some changes. Sometimes we become so absorbed with the destination that we forget the hard work to get there. We are all God’s children. God bless America!

Did I miss the Trump health care plan? Did I miss the infrastructure plan? Has coal come back? Is there a new travel ban that covers the countries that actually sent us terrorists?

Salary offer for new city manager: $145,000 BRIAN MCMILLAN EXECUTIVE EDITOR

Matt Morton has been extended a salary offer of $145,000 to become the third city manager in Palm Coast’s history. If, in the future, he wants a raise, the City Council wants it to be based on performance, and he has no problem with that. The contract that was brought before the council on March 19 indicated that Morton would be given automatic raises, just like directors, thereby avoiding the public discussion of his salary on a regular basis. But, Mayor Milissa Holland, Councilman Jack Howell and Councilman Nick Klufas said they have all been evaluated for their own jobs on performance in the private sector, and they felt the same scrutiny should apply to Morton. (Howell, a retired colonel, also worked in education.) Private-sector salary discussions are not held in the public as they are for a city manager, and so they might be uncomfortable, Holland said. But, “anyone that is hired understands that walking in the door. … It’s what they’re signed up for.” In a phone interview with the Palm Coast Observer after the meeting, which he watched online from Washington state, Morton said he sees no obstacles to moving forward with the contract, despite the changes. “Transparency is important,” he said. “I have no anxiety or fear about being evaluated publicly.” STAFF FRICTION?

Holland said she was concerned that in early meetings with Morton, one director on staff was

Matthew Morton

“not as pleasant as I would have liked.” To help resolve the friction between Morton and staff, Holland asked for help from the man she had passed over for the job and who will soon to be reporting to Morton: Beau Falgout. “Change is not easy … but we have a responsibility to the public and to the community to make decisions in the best interest of moving forward,” Holland said. Falgout, who is now serving as interim city manager, told Holland he has daily calls with Morton. “He and I are committed to a seamless transition on his first day,” he said. After the meeting, Falgout added, “Before this process started, before even the former manager was terminated, I said my role in life was to help the city transition to the next city manager, whether that was me or someone else, and I’m committed to doing that.”

Morton is required to relocate to Palm Coast within six months of his first day of work, which is April 8. If Morton is ever terminated, his severance package would be capped at five months’ salary plus other benefits, for about $132,000. Former City Manager Jim Landon’s severance was six months’ plus other benefits, for about $238,000. Landon’s base salary was $177,000 when he was terminated.

Library gets 24 security cameras amid fears of homeless camp The situation ‘could not be ignored’ and is getting better, Cameron says. BRIAN MCMILLAN EXECUTIVE EDITOR

The library got county approval on March 18 to buy 24 security cameras and establish a “green zone” of good behavior, as the presence of the homeless continue to loiter and make some staff and residents feel unsafe. The cameras, which will be funded by revenue from profits earned by the Flagler County Public Library’s passport services, are part of the county’s effort to “do what we can to make sure our library stays viable,” Flagler County Commissioner Dave Sullivan said. The green zone comprises the library, its parking lot and the immediate tree line. When the library is closed, no one is allowed in the green zone, according to the revisions to the Code of Conduct. It does not forbid people from staying in the woods behind the library, according to Library Director Holly Albanese. The County Commission voted 5-0 to approve both measures. Also at the March 18 meeting, Interim County Administrator Jerry Cameron reported that he toured the facility on a recent Thursday and felt that the security situation “couldn’t be

ignored.” After County Commissioner Joe Mullins made a personal donation to hire a guard for a weekend, Cameron approved using county funds to pay for guards to continue. “I want to make sure that our people are safe, and the residents are safe,” Mullins said. As of now, Cameron has the authority to use county funds to pay for a guard; if the costs rise, he will seek County Commission approval. As a result of the guards, Cameron told the County Commission on March 18, “the situation has improved.” But Benjamin Belhumeur (son of Flagler Beach City Commissioner Rick Belhumeur), who moved to Palm Coast so recently

that he admitted he doesn’t know where the library is, said he will wait and see if the code of conduct is enforced before he takes his six children to check out books. Also at the meeting, Jim Ulsamer, chairman of the library’s Board of Trustees, asked the county to make a new, southern branch of the library a higher priority so that state grant opportunities are not squandered. The commission also selected Bernard Barczak to replace longtime advocate and former County Commissioner and Palm Coast City Councilman Alan Peterson on the library’s Board of Trustees.

and up to nine more have been approved to be built. From a tourism perspective, successful quarterly pickleball tournaments can make an economic impact of $1.2 million in a year, he said.

Between flag football and pickleball, “sports is busting out at the seams” in Flagler County, and more facilities would yield a greater economic impact, according to enthusiasts who spoke March 18, at the County Commission meeting. Jarrod Maxwell, owner of a new flag football league called Mad Dogs, told the commissioners that whereas he expected 100 players in the inaugural season, enrollment is now “pushing 300.” He said the league has begun practicing at the county’s fields near the State Road 100 bridge at Wadsworth Park, the condition of which are unacceptable, he said. Commissioner Donald O’Brien proposed that Maxwell ask about availability of the city of Palm Coast’s fields as well. Mad Dogs Board of Directors member Mike Schottey later said in an email to the Palm Coast Observer that both the city and county have been “gracious” in working with the league, but drainage, turf durability, lights and field availability still present challenges. Mad Dogs’ opening day is Saturday, March 23. A pickleball enthusiast, Walt Hooker, also asked for more facilities at the meeting. Tournament participation has ballooned from 80 to 241 in three years, he said, making it a pickleball mecca in Florida, north of Daytona Beach. Tourist Development Director Matt Dunn said there are three pickleball courts now behind the Hammock Community Center,

For years, the Gargiulo Art Foundation and the city of Palm Coast have dreamed of a Sculpture Garden around the lake at Palm Coast’s Central Park in Town Center. That vision is now becoming reality with the installation of the first piece — a nearly 10-foot-tall, cast bronze sculpture “Burro with Bird on Shoulder.” The Palm Coast City Council, the city’s Beautification and Environmental Advisory Committee, the Arts Commission and the Gargiulo Art Foundation will dedicate the tall burro next to the lake in a public ceremony at 9 a.m. Tuesday, March 26, at Central Park, 975 Central Ave.

The City of Palm Coast in partnership with the Palm Coast Observer will present the second annual State of the City event featuring an address by Palm Coast Mayor Milissa Holland. There is no charge to attend the State of the City address, but seating is limited. Join The Observer and our event sponsors for a private reception immediately following the address. Tickets to the private reception are $30 and are now on sale. Your ticket also includes a reserved seat for the address. Buy yours today! palmcoastobserver.com/state-city

Sponsorships are still available. Contact advertising@palmcoastobserver.com or (386) 447-9723 for more information.

The public is invited to attend. The Gargiulo Art Foundation donated the artwork by sculptor Copper Tritscheller, of New Smyrna Beach – and is donating four other sculptures to be placed around the lake in coming months. “What better way to support artists than to buy their work and put it in public places?” GAF President Tom Gargiulo said in the news release. “At the same time, we’re enhancing our community.” GAF is dedicating “Burro with Bird on Shoulder” in memory of Arleen and Richard Schreiner. Richard Schreiner was Flagler County Artist of the Year in 2012, the same year he died.

County orders Captain’s BBQ to reduce seating after inspection Flagler County has ordered Captain’s BBQ — the restaurant at Bings Landing that has become a locus of controversy concerning its proposal to expand — to reduce its seating to 100. The order comes after a state Department of Business and Professional Regulation inspector found 118 seats on March 1. The restaurant’s lease with the county, which owns Bings Landing and the restaurant building, only allows for up to 100 seats. The county sent Captain’s a “note to cure” on March 15. Chris Herrera, who co-owns the restaurant along with Michael Goodman, said the inspector had counted stools that are not currently being used as seating and will quickly be removed.

Flagler Palm Coast’s boys track and field team finished second at the Bob Hayes Invitational on March 15-16 in Jacksonville. Jacob Miley won the 800-meter run. Nathan Farrell took second in the 300-meter hurdles and third in the 110-meter hurdles. The 4x800-meter relay team of Shawn Gordon, Gus Healy, J.T. Dahlberg and Miley finished first; and the 4x400meter relay team of Darrell Thomas, Farrell, Gordon and Miley placed second.

Jada Williams and Prosperity Wright were the top placers for the Bulldogs’ girls track and field team at the Bob Hayes Invitational. Williams finished third in the 1,600-meter run with a time of 5:48.55, and Wright took third in both the long jump and triple jump.

Matanzas boys weightlifters Will Lam (169-pound weight class), Richard Knowles (183-pound weight class) and Skyelar WilliamsMichaud (219-pound weight class) earned gold medals at the Pirates’ district meet on Sunday, March 17, at FPC High School.

While many of his teammates and opponents huddled in their respective dugouts wrapped in rain gear, jackets and sweaters, Matanzas’ Erik Libby sat comfortably in the Pirates baseball team’s typical shortsleeve uniform. The temperature never rose about 60 degrees on the night of Tuesday, March 19, at Flagler Palm Coast High School. A stiff wind blew, and a thick rain veiled the baseball field. Libby, a native of Minneapolis, Minnesota, felt right at home. “This is normal weather for me,” he said. Libby pitched six innings against the Bulldogs. Sixty-six of his 95 throws were strikes. He struck out six batters and walked just one, as the Pirates defeated rival FPC 2-1 in their first meeting of the 2019 season. “He’s been our go-to guy,” Pirates coach James Perry said. “He’s a strike thrower. He did a great job of competing on the mound.” The Bulldogs scored the first run of the game off an error in the first inning. Matanzas’ Will Towles had an RBI double in the top of the third inning to give the Pirates their first lead of the game. “He’s the guy who hits the ball hard up the middle when we need it,” Perry said. The Bulldogs had a chance to tie — and even win — the game in the bottom of the seventh inning. A catcher’s interference put

Matanzas’ Jason Guilbe pitches a ball to first base.

FPC’s Chance Barber on-base as the potential game-tying run. On the next at-bat, Alex Machado opted for a bunt. The Pirates’ closing pitcher, Nathan Quinn, fumbled with the ball on the ground. Barber made it to third base, and Machado nearly made it to first — but was thrown out. With two outs and with Barber still stranded at third, Noah Trawick stepped into the batter’s box. He swung hard, driving the ball high into left field. The ball ran out of gas as it ballooned high into the wind, dropping into the glove of a Pirates outfielder. “These guys have grown up with each other and have played against each other their whole lives,” Perry said. “It’s always good to get the win.”

FPC’s Nathan Farrell set the U.S. No. 1 time in 300-meter hurdles at the Five Star Conference Championship on March 9. dle, he realized he needed to pick up the pace. As he rounded the track at Flagler Palm Coast High School, nearing the final hurdle, he could hear Halliday’s piercing whistle calling him home to the finish line. Farrell completed the race in 37.5 seconds, a new personal record and a U.S. No. 1 time. “I was happy, I guess, but I have to stay humble,” Farrell shrugged. “I just want to run faster each week. There’s so much stuff I can work on.”

RAY BOONE SPORTS EDITOR

“It’s not necessarily who is the fastest person. It’s the quickest person with the best technique.”

301390-1

Nathan Farrell hadn’t felt this good before a race in a long time. As a talented hurdler and sprinter at Spruce Creek last season, he grew accustomed to competing in four-plus events per meet. He was always running and jumping on tired legs. But this meet — this season — was different. His coaches at Flagler Palm Coast have limited him to a maximum of three events per meet. At FPC coach the Five Star Conference ChamDavid Halliday pionship on March 9, he competon what it takes ed in only two. to be an elite For the first time in who knows hurdler how long, he had a bounce in his step when he took to the block for the preliminary round of the 300-meter hurdles. He cruised his way to the finals with a time of 37.9 seconds, a personal best. The best part: his legs were still fresh. Before the final, Bulldogs head coach David Halliday gave him a pep talk. “He just told me to go all out,” Farrell said. Farrell crouched into his stance in the final of the 300-meter hurdles, awaiting the sharp crack of the starter’s pistol. He started slow. At least, more slowly than he usually does.

The hurdles are among the most technical events in all of track and field. Each step and each leap is perfectly timed, perfectly calculated. It’s a delicately balanced concoction of speed and form. One is meaningless without the other. But Farrell believes that attitude is what separates the elite hurdler from everyone else. “It’s all in the mind,” he said. “Most people are scared to go over hurdles. You just have to run through them.” There was a time when the mere sight of a hurdle gave him anxiety. In a meet at First Academy his

structured — it’s more like a college program than a high school program. And that’s just how Halliday likes it. Farrell is the “quintessential coachable athlete,” according to Halliday. He takes criticism well. He adjusts on the fly. He’s openminded. And he doesn’t cut corners. “He was a pretty talented kid last year,” Halliday said. “But I think he’s taken it to a whole new level this year. He’s seeing that at

FPC, we do things a little differently than most schools.” Farrell’s skill for hurdling was obvious the moment he arrived at FPC, but his coaches wanted to round him out as an athlete. In addition to the 110- and 300-meter hurdles, Farrell always competes in the 4x400-meter relay and trains with the other sprinters and distance runners. “He wanted to take his game to the next level,” Halliday said. “The sky’s the limit for him.”

William “Bill” Golden 71, of Flagler Beach passed away peacefully on March 11, 2019 at the Stuart F. Meyer Hospice House. He was born on May 23, 1947 in New Jersey to the late George and Lorraine Golden (Cooke). Bill retired from New Jersey Bell after 27 years of service. In 1991 he moved to Flagler Beach where he enjoyed being outdoors, fishing, boating and kayaking but his greatest love in life was playing with his grandchildren. Survivors include the love of his life Jane for the past 43 years; children, James (Motoko) Golden, Eileen (Stephen) Kisly, Robert Siegel, Kim ( Adam) Francis; grandchildren, Grace, Stephen, Michael, Matthew, Mackenzie, Boyd and Zach; siblings, George and Matthew Golden, Patricia; niece, Johnna. Donations in his memory may be made to The Skin Cancer Foundation, www.skincancer.org. For online condolences go to: www. craigflaglerpalms.com. Arrangements are in the care and trust of Craig-Flagler Palms Funeral Home and Memorial Gardens.

freshman year, Farrell fell twice in the same race while hurdling for Spruce Creek. The feeling of embarrassment stayed with him for months. When he approached a hurdle, he was hesitant. His times never dropped. He couldn’t shake the fear. But entering his sophomore year, he vowed to change. “I knew I couldn’t be scared anymore,” he said. Farrell burst onto the scene as one of the most talented hurdlers in the area as a sophomore last season. He dedicated all of his time to blending his speed with his newly acquired form. He takes 15 steps before each hurdle in the 300-meter hurdles. Now, he never missteps. The hurdles that used to inspire fear during each race? He no longer sees them. “I just attack them,” Farrell said. “It’s like muscle memory now.”

Despite dreary weather, Pirates softball blows past FPC Matanzas led 9-0 after the second inning. RAY BOONE SPORTS EDITOR

Matanzas’ Ellie Hansen

The Pirates jumped out to an early lead after scoring 9 runs in the second inning against rival Flagler Palm Coast on the night of Tuesday, March 19, at FPC High School. The undefeated Pirates felt confident. A run-rule, and quick ending, to a game plagued by dreadful weather was in sight. But the Bulldogs, who have only won one game so far this season, scored six runs in the fourth inning to cut Matanzas’ lead to 11-6. “I’m hoping that my girls didn’t get a little to big for their britches,” Matanzas head coach Sabrina Manhart said, “because we know that it’s always going to be a fight against FPC.” Both teams battled the elements on Tuesday night.

The temperature was below 60 degrees, there was a brisk win and a chilling rain fell from the dark sky. “We like to think that the weather will never affect us,” said Manhart, whose team played its third rainy game this season. “We’re not scared of the elements by any means.” With the Pirates up 16-6, the game was called in the sixth inning after the officials declared the conditions at home plate “unsafe.” The Pirates were led by Alexia Moy, who went 1-for-3 with 4 RBI. Three other Pirates also recorded 2 RBI each. “Our team needs to be able to respond to challenges,” Manhart said. “We had a rough couple of innings, and I got onto them a little bit, and they responded, and I’m really proud of that. They pulled it back together as a team.”

Palm Coast couple wins free beach wedding Wed By the Sea chose Lidieth Gil and Arnaldo Lopez for its wedding contest winners. PAIGE WILSON COMMUNITY EDITOR

Photo by Paige Wilson

Palm Coast residents Arnaldo Lopez and Lidieth Gil

The dedication of a Waste Pro driver Dave Black hasn’t missed a day of work since the ’80s.

Lidieth Gil and Arnaldo Lopez had planned on getting married in a courthouse. It’d be a small wedding, but that’s all they could afford. A few months into their engagement, Lopez’s best friend, Josh Martinez, gave the couple great news. He told them that they won a free wedding from Wed By the Sea, a Palm Coast and Flagler Beach wedding business. Lopez said he thought his friend was joking, initially. But after reading the wedding contest submission, he realized a bigger wedding wasn’t just a fairytale. “We’re grateful — very grateful,” Lopez said. “Winning this contest just makes this relationship just that much more special.”

PAIGE WILSON COMMUNITY EDITOR

Dave Black hasn’t called in sick since 1981. The Waste Pro roll-out driver has worked in the Palm Coast department for the last 16 years, and, before that, he worked with a waste management company in St. Augustine for 16 years. His dedication and hard work ethic has earned him Waste Pro’s $10,000 Safety Award three times: this year, in 2013 and in 2007. He’s gotten sick since the ’80s, but never to the point of staying home from work, which is something he takes pride in. Black said that while this isn’t the kind of job one would dream of having as a kid, it’s in his blood. “I was kind of born into the business,” Black said. “My dad owned his own garbage companies. ... My dad always

Wed By the Sea opened in Flagler County in August 2018, and launched the wedding contest soon after. Ambi Yurk, owner and planner/ coordinator of Wed By the Sea, said being from the Flint, Michigan area and moving here made her want to “give back,” she said. The contest had about 30 submissions from all around the U.S., but Lopez’s and Gil’s relationship of four years inspired their win. “They faced difficulty and are working really hard to make a good life for themselves and their daughter,” Yurk said. “We were looking for somebody who needed a break, somebody who’s working hard.” Lopez served in the U.S. Army for five years, got married, had a daughter and got divorced. But he said his now 8-year-old loves Gil, which is very important to him. As a full-time student at Daytona State College during the day and

a U.S. Foods employee at night, Lopez has a full plate. Lopez and Gil are both from New York, but they didn’t meet until they moved to Palm Coast. The two briefly dated in 2007 before Lopez went into the military. But they’ve learned that timing is everything. Gil is in the real estate business in Palm Coast. She said she’s thankful her job and bosses accommodate her having multiple sclerosis, which has recently started to affect her more. She has a 17-year-old daughter and 24-year-old son. The couple also

told me there’s always going to be garbage. People are always going to need you.” He first stepped onto a garbage truck in the summer of 1977, as a 15-year-old, when he worked for his father’s company. One of the things he enjoys most is the variety of each day, especially in a roll-out driver position, where he goes around to local businesses to collect compactors and large dumpsters. “I could never do an office job. I’m not that kind of a guy,” he said. “When you’re out on the road, there’s always something different every day. ... It’s always paid my bills.” Each day, he clocks in at 5:15 a.m. and works about 11 hours. But it’s a stable, dependable job he enjoys. When Black isn’t working, he likes spending time with his family and riding his 2011 HarleyDavidson Fat Boy.

cares for nieces and nephews often, making it a full house. “We’re at a loss for words, especially knowing that we’re not the ones that entered; somebody else entered for us,” Lopez said. “So that makes it even more worthwhile.” With the wedding approaching on April 26, Gil said she’s thankful for Yurk’s help. A bigger wedding was something her grandmother always wanted for her, she said. And Gil’s mother dreamed of having a beach wedding. “ I t ’s something my grandmother wanted before she passed,” Gil said. “Actually, two days before she passed, she was bugging me about me having a big wedding and how she wanted my dress. So, I thought that was pretty cool that I kind of got close to what she wanted.” Yurk said she hopes to make this an annual contest with Wed By the Sea. Visit h t t p s : // w w w . wedbythesea.com.
