ANOTHER DOOR OPENS

County disputes city’s 25% markup at the airport.

JACQUE ESTES STAFF WRITER

The proposal to amend the 1996 Utility for Water and Wastewater Services, that would acknowledge the city of Palm Coast as the successor to the Palm Coast Utility Corp., was tabled until the September meeting to allow members of the Flagler County Commission and the Palm Coast City Council to meet.

Questions arose concerning the 25% premium being charged to the Flagler County Executive Airport, which sits like an island of unincorporated Flagler County, surrounded by Palm Coast.

“It borders on immoral to squeeze people on water,” County Commissioner Nate McLaughlin

City, county officials seek reconciliation meeting to provide the water, and developing their own service. He said the short-term solution would be to pay the premium while the county explored other long-term options.

“Long term is the key,” said Commissioner Charles Erickseen. “The airport is here to stay.”

City Council member Bill McGuire approached the podium and encouraged a meeting between the entities on the topic.

“I stood here a month ago and suggested a joint meeting of the City Council and the commission,” he said.

The next night at the City Council meeting, McGuire explained his reactions to the County Commission’s discussion. See the story to the right.

SEA RAY GETS FINAL OK

The second reading and adoption of the rezoning proposal for an expanded parking lot at Sea Ray Boats Inc., on Roberts Road, met with continued opposition from Flagler Beach officials and residents living on Lambert Avenue.

The complaints and opposition ranged from odors to noise and the rezoning specification.

Don Deal, a Lambert resident, played a recording of large trucks backing up, which he said was recorded from inside his home, which has a 700-foot buffer from the site.

“Why not call it an industrial purpose PUD (Planned Unit Development)?” he asked.

McGuire: ‘I’m at the end of my rope’ with city-county strife The Palm Coast City Council member said the two largest government entities do not work ‘in sync.’

BRIAN MCMILLAN EXECUTIVE EDITOR

There are times when the elected officials for Palm Coast and Flagler County talk about successful ways they colloborate to make this a wonderful community. But other times, there appears to be strife between the City Council and the County Commission.

City Councilman Bill McGuire reported on that strife at the Aug. 4 City Council meeting, saying that the county and the city “don’t work in sync.”

One cause of ongoing contention has been the 25% markup in the cost of water provided by the city of Palm Coast to the Flagler County Executive Airport, which is a doughnut of unincorporated territory surrounded by the city. (There is a markup for all customers outside the city limits.)

“A month ago,” McGuire said, “I got before the county commissioners about the situation with the water and sewer at the airport. I suggested that this would be a topic that might Upchurch, Bailey and Upchurch, said he had read the odor ordinance drafted in 2001.

well require a meeting with the City Council and the Board of County Commissioners.”

That meeting, he said, would be open to the public. But, he said grimly, “That idea never bore any fruit. Instead, members of the city of Palm Coast administration and the mayor met with the managers on the county staff and forged together an idea to clean up a whole bunch of ideas that were creating conflict between the City Council and the County Commission.”

McGuire said he went to the Aug. 3 County Commission meeting to find out that the matters were far from resolved.

“You can imagine my surprise when I found out that one of the items on the consent agenda was the water utility agreement. Apparently some of the members of the County Commission were surprised to hear that when you use water that the city of Palm Coast provides, and it’s outside the city of Palm Coast, there’s a premium cost, and they took great exception to that.” bacher said. “He was part of the group that grandfathered this corporation into the Flagler County long range planning board and city of Flagler Beach

“I just don’t see any reason why, since ... we were all elected to serve the citizens in our commuity, why we can’t get together on these things.”

BILL MCGUIRE, City Council

The county took the item off its consent agenda and discussed alternatives, including an agreement with the city that would give them “an escape clause” in the event that they could find a better solution in the long term.

“Once again,” McGuire reported, “a county commissioner screamed about how the city is robbing them because of the wastewater costs at the library, and it went downhill from there.”

bara Revels proposed a meeting with the City Council, McGuire reported. Then he said, “I’m not going to beat this dead horse again, but let me say this: We, the city of Palm Coast — and I’m not pointing fingers at anyobody — do not work in sync. We don’t. I just don’t see any reason why, since we’re all commited to a common cause, and we were all elected to serve the citizens in our commuity, why we can’t get together on these things. And I’m at the end of my rope with it. I’ve mentioned it before, and I won’t beat this dead horse anymore, but it’s going to come up again. I don’t know what they’re going to do with water.”

Referring to the meeting that took place between the administrations of the county and city, McGuire said, “It was almost as if nothing had happened at all.”

The rest of the County Commission, he said, appeared surprised that the Palm Coast markup, which has been in effect since 1996, was going to affect them.

No one else on the City Council spoke in reference to McGuire’s comments, and the meeting ended shortly thereafter.

CAN THE POOL

The YMCA hasn’t been in Flagler County since 2010 but could return, if the community can raise enough money.

BRIAN MCMILLAN EXECUTIVE EDITOR

The Belle Terre Swim and Racquet Club is losing money, and, so far, discussions with the YMCA have not yielded the type of partnership that Flagler Schools administration has hoped for. Without a deal in place, Superintendent Jacob Oliva has recommended closing the pool to the public, effective Sept. 7, but the deal is not dead.

Teresa Rand, president and CEO of Volusia Flagler YMCA, said that based on her calcuations the Y would be able to inhabit the current facilities at Belle Terre if the community could raise $200,000 to help offset scholarships.

The model for the Y is to not turn away anyone; scholarships are offered to those who can’t afford a membership to use the facilities, and if the Y took over the Belle Terre Swim and Rac-

quet Club, that guarantee would remain, and it would leave the Y operating at a $50,000 to $75,000 deficit. The $200,000 sum would give a sufficient “cushion” of 18 to 24 months as the Y built up memberships.

“The Y certainly wants to have a presence in Flagler,” Rand said.

“Ever since the Y left in 2010, we’ve been trying to find a presence.” Other than some summer programs with the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office, however, there hasn’t been a partnership. At one point, there were 800 members of the Y in Flagler County.

Fundraising efforts have been successful in Volusia County, where the Y has six facilities, plus Camp Winona. Less than a year ago, Rand said, the Y embarked on a $5 million campaign, and so far $3 million has been raised. In total, the Y gives away $1.1 million per year in scholarship, and only raises about $500,000, so the rest comes from grants and other sources.

Rand said that, in the mean

time, the decision to close the pool will not be easy for Flagler Schools. But, she said, “they have to be good stewards with their dollars.” In the end, the talks had a time limit because of Flagler Schools’ budget deadlines, and the funding plans for the necessary capital improvements to the Belle Terre facilities couldn’t be resolved.

If the community can raise the $200,000, though, “that would make the decision easier,” she said. “I absolutely believe that, between us and the school, we could work out the capital improvement projects.”

FINAL LAPS AT BELLE TERRE SWIM AND RACQUET Operating costs are more than double revenue.

JACQUE ESTES STAFF WRITER

One item on the Aug. 4 School Board agenda filled the seats, not with parents, but with swimmers.

Swimmers who use the Belle Terre Swim and Racquet Club, and are passionate about it not being closed to the public.

After nearly 20 years, the donation of the recreational facility to the school district in 1996, is haunting the current Flagler County School Board. The club is operating at a deficit of more than $200,000 a year.

Since it was acquired by the school district for the school swim teams, it has been used by the Synchro Belles, Silver Sneakers, and independent memberships have been sold to the community.

“The issue is, the pool revenue is not enough to maintain it, and

keep it open,” said Adult and Community Education Director Kevin McCarthy.

McCarthy presented the figures, $138,000 in revenue, which included $62,000 from memberships, and $352,300 in operating costs for the past school year.

“The pool is running at a negative,” said Superintendent, Jacob Oliva. “I don’t want to close the pool to the public, but we are not in a position where the school can continue operating it.”

Oliva proposed closing the pool at the end of the traditional pool season on Sept. 7, to coincide with the expiration of the summer memberships. Memberships past that date would be refunded.

“The school took on Adult Ed programs, and the parks and recreation aspect of running a pool.

We are going to have to have a hard conversation with the city and county about whose purview

that is going to fall under,” said School Board Chairwoman Colleen Conklin.

State regulations dictate that school funds cannot be applied to the swim and racquet program.

“This is outside the K-12 wheelhouse,” Conklin said. “The dollars we receive from that program have to come from that program.

We do not get taxes to operate the

CITY COUNCIL SAYS ...

Palm Coast resident CarMichael McMillan asked the City Council on Aug. 4 if the city would consider helping to fund the Belle Terre Swim and Racquet Club to help keep it open.

Mayor Jon Netts responded that the city would have to wait to see what the Flagler County School Board would do about the pool. But he also acknowledged that if the pool were to be closed, “it has implications for the city of Palm Coast and Frieda Zamba. There will have to be some discussion so that we don’t deny our residents the opportunity to swim.”

As a result of the discussions of closing the Belle Terre pool, calls have come to the city asking about the Frieda Zamba Pool, which is located nearby, in the P-section.

City Manager Jim Landon sympathized with the school district’s dilemma. “We have our own swimming pool, and I guarantee you we don’t make money,” he said.

He also said that recreation is more in line with the city’s role in the community, not the school district’s. “I support the idea of taking a hard look at what their core mission is, and what our core mission is,” he said.

facility.”

Options were discussed, including finding a group or business in the community to take over the facility. Oliva reported that one attempted negotiation had fallen through.

A dozen people spoke, asking, and in some cases, demanding, the School Board keep the pool open for community use.

During the board’s closing statements, School Board member Sue Dickinson said there was a direct correlation between the failing of a referendum three years ago and the failing adult education programs.

“If it had passed, maybe we would have money in the general fund for this,” she said.

Dickinson asked that the issue be included on the September agenda. “We can vote on it, and whether it’s yea or nay, we will have some direction,” she said.

“The dollars we receive from that program have to come from that program. We do not get taxes to operate the facility.”

The county jail had 60 new cells installed this week, raising the capacity from 132 to 402 inmates.

New holding cells were stacked side by side.

Early on Monday morning, new high security jail cells were prepared for transit to Flagler County’s new county jail. The new county jail is scheduled to be in full operation by June 2016.

Sixty new units in all will be installed within this week, at an average of 12 cells a day. Each cell can hold two to four inmates. The new county jail will be at the same location as the old jail, at 1001 Justice Lane, Bunnell.

“As our county grows, crime is always an issue,” said Jim Troiano,

of the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office. “We are taking care of the issue of overcrowding appropriately. ... With this new jail we will be able to accommodate any level of classification.”

The method of using prebuilt cells to build the new jail is considered more cost effective than building them on the site. The cells are prebuilt in Atlanta, then laid into the structure much like buiding with LEGOs. The construction of the new county jail will cost approximately $17.9 million.

Dennis McDonald’s frivolous lawsuit costs city $12,000

County keeps janitorial staff in-house

He had been ordered to pay for the city’s attorneys’ fees, but delays caused the total to increase. Now the taxpayers are on the hook for the difference. the settlement agreement, Smith wrote via email. As a result City Attorney Bill Reischmann had to research and come up with a strategy for collecting the money.

Ultimately, McDonald paid his amount without coercion, plus more than $1,000 in interest. But that research, as well as the settlement negotiations, resulted in additional costs to the city.

The total for the attorneys’ fees and additional costs is $26,268.18.

The total amount paid by McDonald and Knight for their role in the frivolous lawsuit was $14,037.54.

At the July 28 City Council meeting, City Manager Jim Landon pointed out that even though it was unfortunate that the city had to pay extra for collections, “Overall, it was better than the taxpayers paying the whole amount.”

City Councilman Bill McGuire wasn’t totally satisfied. He said, “At the end of the day, the taxpayers shouldn’t have to pay anything. And they are. ... It’s a sad day when you take taxpayers’ money and just throw it away.”

Landon also commented on the recent announcement by the developers of Island Walk that they are 84% full. “That’s what we were sued over, was to prevent Island Walk,” he said. “I think it’s ironic that that has been settled in our favor.”

BRIAN MCMILLAN EXECUTIVE EDITOR

Palm Coast resident Dennis McDonald has delivered a check to the city of Palm Coast for $9,037.54, bringing his frivolous lawsuit to a close — although the matter leaves taxpayers on the hook for more than $12,000.

McDonald sued the city over a dispute regarding the rules for removing trees near the site of the Island Walk Shopping Center, and a judge declared one year ago that not only was the lawsuit without merit, but that McDonald and his attorney, Joshua Knight, should have known better. They were ordered to pay the city back for attorneys’ fees needed to fight the lawsuit.

City Manager Jim Landon said at the July 28 City Council meeting, “Anyone can sue you, and you have to defend. It’s sad.”

The judge ordered McDonald and Knight to refund the city $8,000 each. The city entered into negotiations with McDonald and Knight to arrange for a payment plan. According to City Clerk Virginia Smith, Knight accepted the settlement. It was revealed at the July 28 City Council meeting that Knight’s father paid $5,000, and the matter was settled for his portion.

However, McDonald rejected

Flagler County commissioners have voted 4-1, against a proposal to replace county janitorial staff with a private firm, American Janitorial Services Inc. Commissioner Nate McLaughlin voted in favor of hiring the firm.

If the commission had approved the privatization of county janitorial services, 13 individuals currently employed in the department, would have lost their jobs.

Those 13 would have received separation packages beginning at two month’ pay, and four months’ health insurance. It was the lack of insurance provided by the bidding company that was to be their downfall in being awarded the contract.

Jordan Dailey, representing American Janitorial Inc., assured the commission that current employees would all have the opportunity to interview for a position with their company, for jobs that pay $10 an hour. The county starts janitorial pay at $9.47 an hour.

When asked if benefits, specifically health insurance, would be comparable to what the employees received now, Dailey said his company does not offer benefits.

County Administrator Craig Coffey proposed the switch in an effort to continue making county operations more efficient.

City crews work on the Seminole Path.

Seminole Woods path stays on track, thanks to CDBG But the City Council also debated the priorities of the Community Development Block Grant funding.

BRIAN MCMILLAN EXECUTIVE EDITOR

What’s more important, a bike path in the Seminole Woods area of Palm Coast, or spending the money to help rehabilitate several homes that might have leaking roofs?

The five-year plan for the Community Development Block Grant is due to Department of Housing and Urban Development by Aug. 15, and the Palm Coast City Council discussed the funding strategies and timelines for how to spend the money. Currently, the city plans to use $250,000 per year until completion of the path, and about $150,000 for housing rehabilitation.

Pedestrian fatalities in the Seminole Woods area vaulted that bike path project to the top of the list a few years ago, but, as City

Councilman Steve Nobile pointed out, the priorities and the makeup of the City Council can shift over time. He said he opposed spending the limited funds on a bike path in Seminole Woods because fixing leaky roofs should be a higher priority.

Resident CarMichael McMillan spoke in public comment and said he felt it was not right to spend the money on a bike path; it was designed to help the poor. According to the city’s presentation, “the city will allocate approximately $153,979 for financial assistance for repair of owner-occupied housing units” thanks to the CDBG. But City Councilman Jason DeLorenzo said there will be more dollars available to help with housing repair through the State Housing Initiative Program next year — about $760,000 — and that

The completion of providing bicycle/pedestrian facilities in the Seminole Woods neighborhood will total approximately 8.1 miles.

city residents can take advantage of SHIP, which is administered by the county.

DeLorenzo then spoke strongly in favor of spending the money on the paths because he remembered the emotional residents who came to protest the lack of attention given to paths on the southern side of the city.

In the end, Nobile agreed to go along with the five-year plan, with the hope that it can be reviewed in the future.

BRIEFS Hutson, Renner seek law change to clear up Canvassing Board confusion Flagler County’s legislative leaders took the first step to clear up a legal point of contention that had bogged down government meetings leading up to last November’s elections.

Florida Sen. Travis Hutson filed Senate Bill 82: County Canvassing Boards, and Rep. Paul Renner will soon follow suit and file a companion bill in the Florida House of Representatives after it comes out of drafting. The bill would require a county canvassing board to retain the services of the county attorney for any legal representation of the board unless a majority of the canvassing board decides to retain different counsel.

The issue of legal counsel dominated multiple meetings of the Flagler County Canvassing Board last fall, taking time and focus from their core mission of conducting orderly and fair

elections. Former Supervisor of Elections Kimberle Weeks felt that Al Hadeed should not be the attorney for the Canvassing Board, and she hired her own attorney in a failed attempt to remove him. For more of this story, see palmcoastobserver.com.

Observer Time to shop for back-to-school shoes

OBSERVED

PALM COAST

In which my 9-year-old learns the importance of checking the size before trying on the shoe.

BRIAN MCMILLAN EXECUTIVE EDITOR

OP IN ION

We are only a few weeks away from school starting, so the kids are getting depressed. Soon, they’ll say goodbye to MakeA-Snack-And-Hope-Mom-

Cleans-Up-The-Mess Land and head back to Yes-TeacherI’ll-Do-Whatever-You-Say Land.

Mom, of course, is doing her best to hide her excitement at having the house to herself for a few hours a day. Dad, of course, is trying to hide his frustration with the rate of growth of his children’s feet because — didn’t we just do this? — it’s time to go shoe shopping again.

Grant, my 9-year-old, sits on the floor of the store and tries to cram his foot into a shoe that he

likes. He winces in pain. “These things are way too small,” he says.

“What size are they?” I ask.

“I don’t know.”

“What size did you wear before?”

“I don’t know.”

I direct him to the contraption next to him on the carpet, the metal plate with the slider that is supposed to measure your foot, and I explain to him how the world works.

Jackson, 11, doesn’t need new shoes because his aren’t very old, but, being the helpful and thoughtful child that he is, he suggests that I could buy him an extra pair of shoes a few sizes

too large, considering these are on sale, and they’re really cool, and eventually he’ll need — “No,” I say.

Ellie, 5, is already jogging around the store in some sparkly gray shoes and trying out a pair of aviator sunglasses. Jackson and Grant open an umbrella that is on sale for such a low price that if we don’t buy it, we are being ungrateful to the store.

We manage to leave after buying only two pairs of shoes, and I take a deep breath and try to avoid thinking about the next ritual we have coming up: Pencils-Pens-Glue-NotebooksFolders-And-Fancy-Erasers Shopping.

Sea Ray to Flagler Beach: MY VIEW Lack of leadership is the Be wise and don’t sue real cause of pool’s closure

The purpose of this letter is to clarify some points before the Flagler Beach City Commission’s meeting on Aug. 6.

At that time, the commission is expected to consider filing an appeal to Flagler County’s recent approval of our request for rezoning.

First, the proposal is — as they say — what it is. Sea Ray has received approval from the Flagler County Board of County Commissioners, which has jurisdiction over this matter, to rezone the property for use as a parking lot, finished boat staging and possible future office space. While some have claimed the new parking lot is some veiled attempt to increase production, it is not.

Further, any claims that Sea Ray is exceeding or ignoring environmental concerns are false. Sea Ray is well within the applicable standards and works hard every day to improve in this area. We do so not only because it is the law, but because it is the right thing to do and we also truly value our presence within the community. We work and live here as all of you, who are our neighbors, do.

Throughout this process, Sea Ray has actively and candidly communicated its intent in seeking this zoning change. As we complete this process and continue to move forward, Sea Ray will continue to openly share its plans with the community.

We are seeking this approval so we can have safe, convenient parking for our employees.

We believe this new parking lot is our best option to provide all in our workforce more convenience, improved safety over the current crowded conditions; and also offer Sea Ray increased efficiency by freeing up space within the existing property and physical plant, perhaps for additional covered mold storage and warehouse space.

These efficiencies are absolutely essential to maintaining and advancing the competitive advantages we now enjoy to continue to compete in the global marine market. Again, while relocating our parking lot would make the operation safer and more efficient,

its purpose is not to increase overall production levels.

We hope that all of our neighbors in Flagler Beach, including the members of the Flagler Beach City Commission, will carefully sift through what is sometimes emotional rhetoric to examine the facts of the situation and take a step back to carefully consider the next steps in this matter — and the potential impact upon our employees’ safety and Sea Ray’s ability to sustain its advantages and compete and thrive in the global marine market — before taking any action.

To these two points — maintaining our competitiveness in the market, and especially the safety of our employees — no one should underestimate Sea Ray’s resolve and willingness to deploy resources to uphold both. We hold dearly to those goals and have demonstrated our commitment through the years to achieve them.

And while we don’t question their motives in this matter, as a long-standing member of the Flagler County community — having been operating at Palm Coast for more than 30 years — we are also left to ponder if filing an appeal is a wise and prudent move on the part of the Flagler Beach City Commission.

By its own admission, the City Commission is uncertain of its legal standing in the matter. And as with any such action, the ultimate outcome of such an appeal is uncertain.

What is certain in taking such a step is that considerable taxpayer resources, such as money and time, for starters, will be committed to a process that could be both protracted and expensive.

It is not for us to say if it is a wise use of such resources when Flagler Beach, as any number of municipal governments, is facing so many other challenges requiring careful and effective use of finite funds and other types of assets.

We hope that Mayor Linda Provencher and those commissioners who serve with her will exercise sound judgment in their decision.

SEA RAY PALM COAST

DR. DOUGLAS COURTNEY GUEST WRITER

As a longtime member of the Belle Terre Swim and Racquet Club, it disheartens me to consider its closure. However, I must concede the current analysis by the administration is correct. Closing the facility for limited use for K-12 students would cut operational costs to a required $30,000 per year. As a taxpayer I cannot condone spending $115,700 of Adult Education funds to keep the facility open.

But here is the rub: It doesn’t appear that the facility has had opportunity to overcome this deficit. The current policies and procedures have been heavy on cutting costs, but not promoting attendance.

It can be argued that fitness facilities are competing effectively against BTSRC. But the argument would also have to be made that the number of potential fitness participants is a finite constant divided by the number of facilities available. This is not true. As Flagler County has grown, so has the number of residents seeking facilities. There are enough potential members in Flagler County to make BTSRC a viable facility. It is the only facility with a year-round heated pool, spa, gym, tennis courts, fitness programs and onsite classrooms — a strong asset unable to be matched by any commercial facility.

The lack of membership is a result of lack of leadership on the issue. For years, membership renewals went out in late November. But not last year.

No renewals were sent out at all because membership fees were not set until late January. When fees could finally be accepted, the memberships were drastically changed to a tier system paid month-to-month instead of one fee for the full year.

These actions alone severely reduced this year’s revenues and memberships.

Additionally, personnel, programs and times of operation have been cut — all ostensibly to cut costs. But each reduction created a concurrent loss in memberships creating even greater expenses, which needed to be covered leading to additional cuts.

Under the administration’s analysis, $116,000 would have to be generated to maintain the facility for the rest of the year. Or, in simpler terms, 464 memberships valued at $250 each would need to be sold. This is not unattainable, as current membership is approximately 460 individuals. Each of which would like to remain at the facility. Each of which is currently prohibited from purchasing said membership or any type of membership. Which begs the question why the School Board wishes to spend $30,000 of taxpayers’ funds to mothball the facility.

Maybe if the administration and board had spoken to the members, instead of only each other, this solution would have appeared earlier.

Some members are aware discussions continue with the YMCA and may bear fruit in the new year. To them, it would seem ongoing membership would be an enticement to the YMCA. Why, then, are we dismantling this asset? And if the Y chooses not to contract, what then BTSRC? Will it go the way of the Corporate 1 facility, a darkened hulk of lost taxpayer funds eventually demolished and forgotten?

It would be a shame to let an asset that allows the board to show and communicate directly to the voters their vision and commitments to be abandoned. It is an asset that cannot be duplicated easily. Still the current numbers are correct. We would need leadership to alter them. I look forward to recognizing it.

The woman complied and gave her ID. The man said he didn’t have ID with him and said his name was John Smith.

The deputy didn’t buy it.

He told “John Smith” that it was against the law to give a false name. The woman then revealed his real name, and the man was arrested. The deputy later found his ID card, which he had claimed was missing.

The woman was arrested for reckless driving.

Now open: Salvation Army

YOUR TOWN GOLFERS STUFF BUS

New office makes them neighbors with Free Clinic.

JACQUE ESTES STAFF WRITER

The Salvation Army opened their new office, at 703 E. Moody Blvd., to the public on Friday, July 31.

This is the first full-time office to be opened by the organization in Flagler County.

As residents, ministers, representatives from other organizations, and the public stepped into the waiting room, the reaction was the same — “inviting and relaxing.”

“This is so inviting,” was the most-heard phrase as tours were provided throughout the facility.

Debbie Colbert of the Salvation Army, was in charge of decorating the new offices and created a homey atmosphere as opposed to a bureaucratic office.

Pastel paint, decorative pillows, stylish seating and a play area in the corner for the children made it a place where those seeking help can feel comfortable.

“We are celebrating the opening of this office in Flagler County, and also celebrating 150 years of the Salvation Army,” said Pamela Andrews, who was there representing multiple organizations (AmeriCorps, VISTA, Volusia County Coalition for the Homeless, Clothing/Donation Chair at FCFAC and The Sheltering Tree).

“This is our cup of cold water.”

Major Stan Colbert, Joni Casillas, Tony Deobil, and Pamela Andrews pose for a photo in the new Salvation Army office at 703 E. Moody Blvd. in Bunnell.

Andrews said she is involved in all of the organizations to become as educated as possible in the different areas — something residents will benefit from as she operates out of the new office.

“It’s a real blessing to be able to be here,” she said.

The organization provides help to those in need.

“We are open five days a week and will have a food pantry onsite,” said Joni Casillas, director of development. “People can walk in and find out how to get help paying the light bill or help with their mortgage or rent. It’s a one-stop kind of place.”

The location in the heart of Bunnell, across from the post office, was intentional.

“People kept telling us, ‘If you are going to do the kind of work you do, you need to be in Bun-

nell,’” said Tony Deobil, director of social services. “We looked around, and this was affordable and accessible.”

Funding is being provided through at $3 million VA grant through Supportive Services for Veteran Families.

As he cited Mathew 10:42, during his blessing, Maj. Stan Colbert, pastor and corps officer, said the “giving of a cup of cold water,” was what the new office would provide.

“This is our cup of cold water,” Colbert said. “We are privileged to be able to do God’s work here.”

The Bunnell Police Department’s K9 Jackie, has been awarded a ballistic vest, donated by Vested Interest in K9s Inc. and Tome Berry of the Blue Alert Foundation, who donated $950 through an online T-shirt fundraiser. The fundraiser paid tribute to the 20 law enforcement dogs that lost their lives in the line of duty in 2014.

“As the chief in a small municipality police department, where budgets are extremely tight, I am extremely grateful for the donation and want to thank the dedicated individuals in the nonprofit organization,” said Bunnell Police Chief Tom Foster.

HOW DID HE GET HERE? Jason Wheeler began his career in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, in 1994. He has 20 years of experience in the news industry.

Married to Shelley, they have two children who attend Flagler Schools.

“I have plenty of firsthand knowledge of the great things Flagler County schools has provided my own family,” Wheeler said.

“My hope is to help others share the good news found in the classrooms of our schools.”

BRIAN MCMILLAN EXECUTIVE EDITOR

Jason Wheeler wasn’t in the right desk yet last Thursday; he was downstairs until offices could be rearranged. He had nothing on his calendar yet because his boss — Superintendent Jacob Oliva — was out of the office for a few days. But Wheeler is preparing to make a big impact on how you get information about Flagler Schools.

Wheeler was recently hired as the information specialist for the district. He formerly covered Flagler County for Central Florida News 13. He wasn’t looking for a career change, but the district approached him and asked him if he’d be interested.

His vision? “Telling the good stories here,” he said.

According to the press release sent by the district, Wheeler will focus on internal and external communication. He will serve as the public information officer for Flagler Schools, although, he said, they decided against using the term “PIO” as his title because it sounds too distant and clinical.

Wheeler said he looks forward to helping the community to understand the full scope of the Flagship Programs at each school. So far, he said, “it’s been trickled out,” but he will help to

give a “unified approach” to the message.

Lynette Shott, who was recently moved from principal of Flagler Palm Coast High School to become the director of the newly created Community and Student Engagement department, will lead Wheeler’s efforts.

She said, in the press release: “As we move forward with our commitment to community and student engagement, Jason will be a great asset. His expertise and passion for Flagler County and our school district will help us continue to improve our partnership with our families and community as we all work together to help every student reach their full potential.”

PALM COAST LITTLE LEAGUE EDITION

LIKE UMPIRE, LIKE SON

Are you one of those?

Aedan Celestino wants to follow in the footsteps of his father, Pete, a former Major League umpire.

here are many, many enticing reasons to become an umpire.

Umpires get the best seats in the house. They get to watch some of the greatest players to set foot on the diamond, and their opinions are the ones that actual hold weight. Then again, there are huge downsides that requires Rhinoceros-tough skin to reap the benefits.

Palm Coast Little League assistant coach Pete Celestino knows this too well. For a great deal of his life, including 13 years at the highest level, he sat behind a batter and catcher, calling every pitch and taking in the offensive language with every call the fans disagreed with. Celestino now has a 13-year-old son, Aedan, one of the PCLL All-Stars, and he wants to follow in his dad’s footsteps. Aedan has made the All-Star team in whatever league he’s played in, but he wants to be like his dad, whom he considers the best person in the world.

“That’s what he wants to do; I wouldn’t make him do that,” Pete Celestino said. “That’s a tough profession. You gotta be able to take a lot of stuff.”

While asking to become a verbal punching bag, Aedan’s decision is as much expected as a child

of a Major Legue player. Growing up in the house of an umpire, he had the pleasure of meeting and getting to know his dad’s closest friends, other umpires.

Although he hasn’t been one in years, Pete still gets tickets from his umpire buddies, which allows Aedan and him to enjoy games together and watch their friends completely ignore the angry tirades of fans.

One of Aedan’s favorite memories is their week-long camping and baseball trip, where they traveled to Cincinnati, Washington, D.C., Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland and Pittsburgh, attending six games in seven days.

“He’s been to more ball parks at the age of 13 than I ever was,” Pete Celestino laughs. “I didn’t go to my first game until I was 13. But, he appreciates it. We have a lot of sports memorabillia from when I grew up and when I worked in the league, and we love to show it to baseball fans and share memorable stories.”

Pete and Aedan Celestino have enjoyed the game together since he was a toddler, rolling a baseball around on their living room floor.

Now, a shy teenager who will eventually have to make game-deciding calls that will anger many, he believes he is ready to be what dad has been and continue the Celestino name in the umpire world.

“Seeing him umpiring for the

first time — I get nervous when he’s playing,” Pete Celestino said.

“I’ll be a little extra nervous when he umpires because it’s going to be hard to sit there and listen to the comments; they’re going to come. But, he knows the game well enough, and he’ll do good at it. If he’ll get through those early times, when he’s putting up with everything, that’ll make him a better umpire.”

PETE CELESTINO, former Major League umpire

GREATEST MOMENT Aedan Celestino didn’t allow a bad game to thwart his perspective on his team’s accomplishment of making it to the Little League state tournament. Of all the other great achievements he’s had as a baseball player, Aedan says his time at the tournament is his best moment because it’s the highest level to play in, next to the Little League World Series.

rowing up in a superstitious household was always fun. It added a level of excitement and comedy to an otherwise troublesome life in the ghetto.

There were times, in the middle of sweeping our dirty, stained hard floors, when I would accidentally sweep over my siblings’ feet, and my mom would make someone spit (yes, spit) on the broom. If she didn’t, she believed, someone in the family would go to jail. Not a joking matter, but a lot of my family members have gone to jail. Of course, I believe it was due to a crime they committed, not the disregard of spittle.

This was just one fish in an ocean of ridiculous notions.

We couldn’t wash clothes on holidays, split a pole, had to travel in the opposite direction of black cats, tell our nightmares to someone lest they come true, perform a ritual if we broke a mirror — and so many others.

Would you believe, as a kid, I actually tried to avoid all the cracks on the sidewalk pavement, so I wouldn’t get home to an ailing mother who suffered a cracked back because of my carelessness?

The issue of superstitions crossed my mind the other day, when, jokingly, a coach blamed me for the lopsided inning his team suffered as I showed up late to the ballpark. As I laughed, I begin to wonder about all the crazy and meaningless habits people do to get the upper hand.

A few years ago, there was a commercial about superstitions, featuring Stevie Wonder’s “Superstition” song, and the end of the commercial said, “It’s only weird if it doesn’t work.” Does it ever? Now, I know people claim the jerseys they wear weekly that never get washed all season are the reasons their teams win “some” games, but I don’t recall any team in the history of sports that never lost, at least in the modern era. Do superstitions have off-nights? Let’s face it: LeBron James and Tom Brady (along with deflated balls and spies) make “superstitions” work. Those who hold to their game routines should try them on the Cleveland Browns or the Philadelphia 76ers.

I wonder who wins when both teams trust in superstitions. Do they cancel each other out?

What are some of the superstitions you’ve learned or seen, and do you believe in superstitions? And, since we are on the subject, have any of you dreamed of fish lately? My wife and I are seeking to become first-time parents.

210 Old Kings Road South Ste. 500,

The Palm Coast Little League Allstars failed to win either of their games at the State of Florida Little League tournament this past weekend in Tallahassee, but they still returned as winners and history makers.

In addition to the District 19 championship, the All-Stars became the first Palm Coast team to win a sectional title, and they returned from the Florida Little League tournament as the eighth best team in the state.

While the kids desired better results, they never ceased to play hard and exhibit good sports-

manship. During a stretched rain delay and muddy diamond, the All-Stars lined up against their opponents and decided to entertain fans and onlookers with a dance-off. Both teams performed classic and modern dances to MC Hammer’s “U Can’t Touch This.”

The also got a team picture with Dick Vitale, the famous college basketball broadcaster and Little League Hall of Famer.

“I’m thankful to the 14 who did the work and played the games, and made us all proud,” coach Doug Berryhill said. “We will watch with joy as they continue to grow as baseball players and young men.”

Most kids wish to play in a Little League State tournament or the World Series. Most would love to excel in any sport where they could contribute to a team. While these are true, nearly every kid would love to freely eat as he wishes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Alex Machado has not only accomplished the first two, but he’s actually encouraged to do the last.

Now that baseball season is over, Machado will focus on football for the next few months. Though he’s talented enough to play, his small physique could hinder him from getting on a team, unless he puts on enough pounds to meet the Pop Warner weight requirement.

“His football coach told him to eat peanut butter and jelly with a big glass of milk every night,” said Christina Machado, his mother.

Alex Machado takes a bite out of a chicken sandwich.

“We are trying to feed this kid whatever he will eat, along with protein and milk shakes, and that works pretty well. He’s just very active, so we have to try to keep the weight on him.”

While this may seem like a tough task to make a football team, don’t shed any tears for Machado; he’s in kid heaven.

“Are you kidding me? He loves it,” Christina Machado laughs.

“We have to try to feed him four times a day, and he is definitely using this to his advantage. He’s always asking for candy bars and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and I would usually, say, ‘Come on, it’s like 10 o’clock at night.’ Then, he’d say, ‘Well, I really need to eat to make this weight,’ so he’s definitely loving it. I still make him eat the vegetables he doesn’t want to eat, but he doesn’t care because he knows he will get dessert every night.”

“I get to eat a lot of ice cream, cheeseburgers, chicken sandwiches and pizza,” Alex Machado said. “It’s fun that I get to eat a lot of calories to gain weight, especially vanilla ice cream.”

As of today, Machado’s mother says that he currently weighs 80.7 pounds, which is .7 ounces over the minimum weight requirement for him to play.

PET DISH

Doggie take the wheel? No. What if the airbag is deployed? Think safety first.

JACQUE ESTES STAFF WRITER

Years ago, while interviewing an employee at Florida Hospital Flagler, I overheard a man who was distraught, after learning he needed to be admitted. The man had driven himself to the emergency room where he waited, was seen, I assume had some tests, before the decision was made to admit him.

His concern wasn’t the fact that he was sick enough to

require hospitalization, he was worried about his dog, waiting out in the car for him.

Dogs want to be with us, and we with them. That’s good, but sometimes the kindest thing to do, is to leave them at home in the air conditioning with their food, water and toys.

If you have never left your dog while you’ve gone out on errands, you are missing a real treat — the absolute joy your dog experiences when you return. It’s a good feeling. I can honestly say that no one in my life has ever been as genuinely happy to see me as my dog.

Reasons not to take your dog along for the ride, when he has to stay in the car, includes the temperatur. Don’t tell me you have the windows “cracked.”

There is always the chance that any of us could fall ill and need medical attention, and no one would know our pup was alone in the car. There is also the chance that someone might snatch the pup out of the car.

In my opinion, the only individual behind the steering wheel should be the one with the license — the driver’s license.

I snapped the accompanying photo while sitting at a traffic light. The little terrier popped his head out the window and yes, he is cute, but the mom in me kicked into overdrive and the “what-ifs” began in my head.

The arm he is nestled in looks strong enough to hold him in the car, but what if another car hits him or another car with a bigger dog pulls up alongside?

Then there are the airbags.

Great inventions to protect the

driver and passenger, but children are secured in the back seat. Why? Because should the air bag deploy it can seriously hurt them. Same with your dog.

There are times when our dog goes with us, to parks, the veterinarian, and on vacation. In a perfect world, he will settle down after we are on the road, but sometimes one of us ends

up in the backseat with him. He has had a doggie seat belt in the past, but the last one he chewed through before I was off the ramp and onto the highway.

Our dogs may “want” to go everywhere with us, but it is up to us, as their parents, to make the right decision — the safe decision.

A little help from PACE First Palm Coast homeowner takes advantage of the program.

JACQUE ESTES STAFF WRITER

The first Flagler County PACE (Property Assessed Clean Energy) recipient, Jill Trecki is all smiles.

Thanks to the new program, she was able to make some much needed repairs to her home.

“The PACE program is truly a blessing in our community,” Trecki said in a press release. “I would not have been able to have the roof and air conditioning replaced without them.”

PACE funding is available to residential and commercial property owners to be used for energy efficient, renewable generation and wind mitigation improvements.

“We are authorized to raise $2 billion across the state of Florida,” said Mark A. Pierson, outreach manager of the PACE Funding Agency.

Flagler County Commissioner Charles Ericksen was at Trecki’s home for the oversized check delivery last week.

Seminole Woods K Investment Properties sold the home at 21 Seamaiden Path to Paul and Eileen Trucksess, of Palm Coast, for $189,000. Built in 2004, it has four bedrooms, two bathrooms and 2,255 square feet of living area. It sold in January this year for $80,000.

Quail Hollow Regions Bank sold the home at 10 Zorro Court to Adams Homes of Northwest Florida for $198,900. Built in 2015, it has four bedrooms, two bathrooms and 2,330 square feet of living area.

Toby Tobin, of GoToby.com, contributed to this report.

“Private investors put money into the fund,” Ericksen said.

“The homeowner is obligated to pay back with small interest rate, about 5%.”

Bringing this program to Flagler County has taken nearly four years according to Commissioner Barbara Revels.

The money isn’t free, it is paid back by the homeowner as an assessment on their property tax.

“It’s an assessment against property just like a road paving or water line might be,” Revels said.

“Flagler doesn’t make any money on this.”

The fund allows homeowners to improve their property at a reduced interest rate.

“It’s not for everybody. You have to have equity in your home, be current on your mortgage and tax bill, and have a certain credit rating,” Revels said.

To find out more about the program, residential and commercial property owners can go to the agency’s website at EvestFlorida. com.

“It’s the perfect chance to share the uniqueness of our area with the world,” The show was filmed over a four-day period in Flagler County with locations that include The Funky Pelican and Marineland, as well as several shots of Flagler County’s parks and beaches.

Beachfront Bargain Hunt is a series that documents the journeys of families who are dreaming of living in a sandy locale with palm trees and warm ocean breezes, but those

dreams are accompanied by a firm budget substantially short of a million dollars. The house hunters tour three to four waterfront properties — each with surprisingly affordable price tags — before choosing the one that turns the beach lifestyle dreams into reality. The show has been on air since 2013.

The Flagler County office is located at 5505 North Oceanshore Blvd., in Palm Coast. Blackmon can be reached at 706-575-2402 or pjblackmon@fortunegroup-
