“As your police chief, I’m concerned about the drivers’ behavior and their disregard for the safety of our residents here in Ormond Beach.

The loss of one life is too many.”

JESSE GODFREY, Police Chief

In 2018, there was one death as a result of a traffic crash. This year, there have been six.

JARLEENE ALMENAS NEWS EDITOR

With four traffic fatalities in the city in the last month — more than the number that happened in all of 2018 — the Ormond Beach Police Department and the city of Ormond Beach are taking measures to fight back against those numbers.

Mayor Bill Partington said the three major accident-causing traffic problems are speeding, distracted driving and reckless driving. He said he had directed Police Chief Jesse Godfrey and City Manager Joyce Shanahan to come up with an action plan to address those concerns through education and enforcement. This year, the city has seen a total of six fatalities due to traffic crashes.

In 2018, there was only one.

“It’s concerning, and I think about the individual lives that were lost and the families who lost a loved one,” Partington said.

“And then, the people who either caused or were part of those accidents, they have to live with that

— the fact they killed somebody.”

Godfrey delivered a video statement on the matter on Wednesday, June 5, the day after 73-year-old Mary Spanos of Daytona Beach died by Shadow Lake Boulevard in a crash caused by two other cars that were street racing. Spanos turned onto North Nova Road and was struck by 24-year-old Erik Worthington.

The car Worthington was racing swerved to avoid the crash and left the scene, police reported.

“They were flying so fast, there was nothing she could do,” Partington said.

The crash on Memorial Day at the intersection of Seminole

Drive and West Granada Boulevard killed a pregnant woman and her unborn child. The woman, who was crossing the road at the crosswalk when she was struck, was visually impaired, Godfrey confirmed. Her name had yet to be released as of press time.

Godfrey said in his video statement that the recent incidents in the city could not be overlooked or disregarded “as the norm.” He vowed that the city would take action, and said that officers were already increasing traffic safety through education and enforcement.

“As your police chief, I’m concerned about the drivers’ behavior and their disregard for the safety of our residents here in Ormond Beach,” Godfrey said. “The loss of one life is too many.”

Since then, the city has increased enforcement of its traffic laws, and has placed electronic

Hand Avenue

signs cautioning drivers to watch for pedestrians and to slow down, and portable electronic signs that check and display display drivers’ speeds. Godfrey said the department hopes these things will serve as a reminder to pay attention.

An average of 300 people each year die in Florida as a result of speeding, Godfrey said.

“No matter how eager you are to get to your destination, speeding and driving aggressively is dangerous,” he said.

Partington said he attributes the fatal accidents to high speeds.

He believes that if people followed the speed limit and other traffic safety rules, accidents would decrease on major thoroughfares.

“People just driving so fast for no good reason other than they think they’re going to get there a couple minutes quicker,” Partington said. “We want them to get there safe and alive, and be safe for everybody else in the community.”

Godfrey said the Police Department has also added extra officers in key areas of the city.

“There will be a traffic safety social media campaign all summer to better educate our residents and visitors and remind everyone to slow down and drive responsibly so incidents like this don’t happen,” Godfrey said.

The city is working with the Department of Transportation to increase safety for pedestrians as well, he added. The hope is to get improvements on Nova Road by The Trails Shopping Center and acquire more signalized crosswalks on A1A. Partington said he will bring the topic of traffic safety to the Volusia County Roundtable of Elected Officials eventually, to see if a community-wide effort can be kickstarted.

“It’s just something that we have to try to address,” Partington said. “You can’t prevent everything, but I’m hoping if we can bring awareness to it and raise the issue with enforcement and education and those kind of things, that we can calm things down.”

The plan for fiscal year 2019-2020, prepared by using a millage rate of 4.045 (half of rollback rate), included more than $8 million for water and wastewater projects and almost $4.6 million for airport and economic development improvements.

As the biggest budget item in the plan, the water and wastewater projects are relying on $5.4 million of funding through impact fees, $1.3 million in user fees, $310,500 from the vehicle reserves fund, as well as $1.1 million from wastewater reserves — which is the cost of the design and permitting phase for the north peninsula Phase 1 septic to sewer conversion.

As for the airport projects, the city is relying on $4.5 million worth of grants from the Federal Aviation Administration and the Florida Department of Transportation, which will mainly cover the planned airport runway 9/27 1,000-feet extension.

The rest of the money for those projects will come from the general fund and economic development reserves.

CHILDREN’S MUSICAL THEATRE WORKSHOP DANCE SHOWCASE

Almost $20 million worth of projects were given a tentative thumbs-up by the City Commission at the Capital Improvements Program workshop on Tuesday, June 4, but one was notably left in limbo for the time being: the MacDonald House.

The Ormond Beach Historical Society was hoping the city would allocate $200,000 to the first of four phases for exterior improvements to the historic city-owned property, which was built around 1900. Staff didn’t include the project in the drafted list of general fund capital projects, though it was listed as an alternate or additional project.

That category in the CIP involves three initiatives, with a potential combined allocation of $572,567: Improvements at The Casements (mainly funded through its Guild fundraising efforts), Community Development Block Grant projects and fiber optic connectivity.

Only Mayor Bill Partington said he wanted to allocate money to the MacDonald House. He wanted to figure out a way to complete all phases, a cost of $890,000.

“Expensive, but a lot of cities spend a lot of money on old houses,” Partington said. “I look at Winter Park which has spent millions of dollars restoring old houses because they treasure their history. It’s valuable to them, and it’s important to their community.”

But he didn’t get support from commissioners at the workshop. City Commissioner Rob Littleton said that funding the improvements would require digging into the city’s 17.3% in general reserve funding. With other organizations like The Casements

Guild having raised $127,000 for improvements to The Casements, and the Ormond Memorial Art Museum and Ormond Beach Performing Arts Center working on their own fundraising efforts for building improvements, he was hesitant to allocate city money without a similar effort by the Historical Society, he said.

Historical Society President Bonda Garrison expressed the organization’s disappointment at the lack of city support at the commission meeting later that night. She said the Historical Society and the city’s Landmarks Preservation and Quality of Life Boards have all been advocating for the maintenance and preservation of the MacDonald House since 2007.

That was 12 years ago, she said.

Garrison said the Historical Society raised $70,000 two years ago to save the house, but stopped because the city was conducting a study to find out what the improvements would cost. Raising money isn’t easy for a small organization like theirs, she said, and it would be “shortsighted” to do so without city commitment.

“It’s one of the last structures that we can save to showcase our wonderful history,” she said. “We stand ready to do our part.”

At the workshop, City Commissioner Susan Persis said she’d

“It’s one of the last structures that we can save to showcase our wonderful history. We stand ready to do our part.”

Bonda Garrison, Historical Society president

The MacDonald House was built around the year 1900.

rather fund a different project over the MacDonald house: the construction of a bathroom and concessions facility at Field 7 in the Ormond Beach Sports Complex, a project that is estimated to cost $600,000, though Persis hoped it could be done for less.

None of the other commissioners favored this idea. City Commissioner Troy Kent agreed that the girls that will be using that field need a bathroom — the city is hoping to make Field 7 the primary home field for the Seabreeze High School’s girls softball team — but the cost was too high.

Persis persisted, even as Commissioner Dwight Selby pointed

out that there are bathrooms nearby and said he wanted to make sure the city wasn’t committing to a project because it “feels good.”

“I don’t want to do it because it feels good, for sure,” Persis replied. “I want to do it because it’s right.”

The commission reached a compromise regarding the bathrooms by opting to direct staff to put the bathroom project on hold, and, in the meantime, continue applying for grants. If the city is able to obtain grant funding, the CIP budget could then be amended.

WHAT ELSE IS IN THE CIP BUDGET?  $182,000 to replace four police cars. This is funded through the dedicated millage for vehicles.  $50,000 to replace a 2003 street loader. This is a five-year lease and is also funded by the dedicated millage for vehicles.  $450,000 for road resurfacing. This is funded through the gas tax.  $70,000 to replace the overlook above the restrooms at the Birthplace of Speed Park by the Granada Boulevard beach approach. This is funded through property taxes.  $70,000 to make improvements to the Rockefeller room inside The Casements. This is funded through property taxes.  $120,000 to paint the Granada bridge. A color scheme is still to be determined. The city plans to apply for FDOT funding for this project.  $865,000 for parking lot improvements, a new bathroom, bait house and pavilion at Cassen Park. This will be funded through property taxes.

Why we’re helping with septic conversion Now is the time to move forward on this project.

DWIGHT SELBY CITY COMMISSION

You may be wondering why the city of Ormond Beach is poking its nose into the sewage treatment methods of the residents of Ormond-by-theSea? After all, Ormond-bythe-Sea is governed by Volusia County; it’s an unincorporated area outside the city limits of Ormond Beach.

Ormond-by-the-Sea is, of course, contiguous to Ormond Beach – Ormond’s most northern street on the peninsula is Sandcastle Drive, and Plaza Drive is the southernmost street in Ormond-bythe-Sea. Well it’s a great question and deserves a thoughtful response, which actually has two parts. First, why should I get rid of my septic tank and hook up to sewer? And second, why is Ormond Beach pushing this?

WHY SHOULD I GET RID OF MY SEPTIC TANK?

If you live in Ormond-by-theSea and have a septic tank, you need to seriously consider hooking up to city sewer when it becomes available for the sake of environment.

I’m not going to try to guilt you into doing this. I want you to come to your own conclusion based on the facts. The place to start is the Volusia County Health Department report on the status of sewage disposal and collection in Volusia County dated November 2013. The Health Department rated every area in the county where septic tanks are prevalent based on six characteristics (soil permeability, proximity to water body, average age of systems, water table, potable water source, and density) and determined that three of the five worst areas in the entire county for septic tanks are in Ormond-by-theSea. The North Peninsula barrier island is designated “Not Suited for Septic.”

If these 4,000 homes were not on city water, Ormond-bythe-Sea would be the absolute worst area in the county, bar none, for septic.

So what makes septic so bad?

Well, even a properly working septic system does not remove the nutrients from the waste water that leaches into the soil; the nitrogen and phosphorous end up in the aquifer and the Intracoastal Waterway.

Atlantic Avenue is about 15 feet above sea level, and John Anderson is about 5 feet above sea level. All the groundwater flows from the ocean to the river carrying along the nutrients. And it’s the nutrients that destroy the natural water quality and can cause algae blooms to grow.

The Clean Water Act declared the Halifax River near the Tomoka Basin an impaired water body due to high nutrients and algae blooms. The soil is extremely porous on the peninsula, so a homeowner may not even be aware that their system is not working properly because their toilets flush and their shower drains without backing up but underground it may be leaking without any treatment.

WHY IS ORMOND BEACH PUSHING THIS?

The reason is simple: Ormondby-the-Sea is in Ormond Beach’s utility (water and sewer) service area. Every single Ormond-by-the-Sea resident buys his or her potable (drinking) water from the city of Ormond Beach.

This has been the case for decades. I know because Sheryl and I lived in a single-family house in Ormond-by-the-Sea when we first moved to the area in 1983 and back then we paid a water bill to Ormond Beach. This had been the case for years prior to our arrival.

Ormond Beach is logically the designated utility provider for Ormond-by-the-Sea for a couple of reasons. There are really only three possible providers of sewer service: i) A private company, ii) Volusia County, or iii) Ormond Beach.

There is a private company that serves about 650 homes at the far north end of Ormondby-the-Sea with package plants. It is unlikely that this company or any other private company would invest the millions of dollars necessary

to build a facility to treat the sewage for a relatively small number of homes. That is, of course, assuming they could find a tract of land at a reasonable price sufficiently large enough to construct their sewage treatment plant without raising the ire of the neighbors, who would now be living next to such a facility.

Volusia County is not an option. They are not interested in being the sewer provider for this area for the same reasons expressed above. So that leaves the city of Ormond Beach which is the most obvious and best alternative.

First, Ormond-by-the-Sea is in its utility service area. Second, Ormond Beach has capacity in its existing wastewater treatment plant to service all of Ormond-by-the-Sea and then some, so the city will not need to spend millions of dollars to expand its plant. Finally, as my friend Peggy Farmer says, “The water knows no boundaries. It is everyone’s water.”

Now is the time to move forward on this project. There’s citizen support as evidenced by the OB Life No. 1 environmental concern was water quality and septic. On the state level, Gov Ron DeSantis’s push for $600 million per year for the next four years for water quality projects and the federal government is considering a major infrastructure bill. If we delay this project, the competition from other cities and counties will heat up over time and make our ability to secure partner funds increasingly difficult.

the peace of mind knowing you’re doing your part to clean up our water for the benefit of future generations — our kids and grandkids.

WHAT’S IN IT FOR ME?

Absolutely not. This is about water quality – not annexation. No one will be required to annex into the city.

For years politicians have been talking about the septic problem on the North Peninsula. And for years all that has been accomplished is talk. My hat is off to Mayor Bill Partington and the entire City Commission for taking this bold step. Finally action will replace talk and results will follow.

I’m confident that when you analyze all the facts, you will agree that abandoning septic and connecting to sewer is the right thing to do and is in your long-term best interest.

Dwight Selby represents Zone 1 on the Ormond Beach City Commission. Email him at dwight.selby@ormondbeach.

As I see it, there are two big financial reasons to consider sewer over septic.

First, you gain the utility of all of your land. Right now you can’t build anything where your drain field is located. So if it’s in your backyard, you can’t add a swimming pool or expand your home. If it’s in your front yard, you can’t install a circular driveway.

The other big benefit involves the value of your home. There are many buyers who will not even consider buying a home with a septic tank. If you connect to sewer, you expand your pool of buyers which raises the market value of your home.

There is one other benefit:

WHAT’S NEXT?

The Ormond Beach City Commission must adopt the annual budget including the $1.1 million allocation for the design and permitting of Phase 1. This will be followed by a request for proposals to select the professional engineering firm that will create the construction plans and secure necessary permits. A project is considered “shovel ready” when it is designed and permitted.

Once that’s completed, the city can bid the construction to determine how much it will actually cost to construct.

Simultaneously, we will be securing commitments from financial partners like St. Johns River Water Management District, Volusia County, Florida Department of Environmental Protection, Community Development Block Grants, the state revolving fund, the federal government and any other sources that will contribute. All this is with the goal of raising as much support as possible so as to minimize the expense to homeowners.

Recognizing that many people are not in a position to absorb a large one-time expense, we are researching the means to make available low-interest loans.

WILL I BE REQUIRED TO ANNEX INTO ORMOND?

Deputy Frank Scofield remembered for his faith and dedication A crowd of 500 law enforcement officers, friends and family joined together to honor Frank Scofield’s memory.

CAROLINE SMITH CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Over 500 people gathered to celebrate the life and legacy of fallen Volusia County Sheriff’s Office Senior Deputy Frank Scofield at the First Baptist Church of Daytona Beach on Thursday, June 6.

Scofield, a U.S. Navy veteran who had been with VCSO since 1995, was fatally struck by a van early morning on Sunday, June 2.

He, along his wife Susan attended the Spruce Creek Baptist Church.

Pastor Steve Loy commenced the service by illustrating the kind of man and officer Scofield was for

Volusia County in the years he served.

Loy said he was fostering three girls who were terrified of police officers, but after being introduced to Scofield, the girls were able to reconcile their fears because Scofield was a good man, “full of the Holy Spirit.”

“Susan, he loved you, and he had to go up there and get things ready for you,” Loy said. Scofield and his wife had been together for 28 years.

Volusia County Councilman Ben Johnson, a former Volusia County sheriff, said, “We will never forget our friend Frank.”

ORMOND BEACH OBSERVER

OrmondBeachObserver.com

Dear Editor: The past few months have been very entertaining in the political arena. The May 30 edition of the Ormond Beach Observer supplied some fodder for response from yours truly.

First, and foremost, the article from Heather Post was spot on regarding the state of the county and, also, the state of the city, Ormond Beach. We do need leadership that is resident-sensitive, not self-serving. Heather, whether you opt for the County Council chair, or to be the mayor of Ormond, you have a lot of fans throughout Volusia. We need someone with your mindset.

Secondly, regarding the “sales tax failure,” it would be best solved by those (the majority) on the County Council, and the Ormond Beach City Commission stepping down at any time (preferably soon) so that the concerned citizens can regroup, put this item back up for vote and move forward by putting their trust with the use of these funds in the hands of new leadership (preferably, 1. not “seasoned” politicians; and 2. definitely no ties to developers). At the county level, those involved, coincidentally, happened to be opposed to the Amendment 10 results from last November’s election process. Seems to be a trend here.

Thank you, Alan Hovey, for an accurate view of yet another sham by the county politicians.

This unnecessary, untimely and costly special ballot shall be their legacy. (And I was not far off from my estimate [my 16% vs. actual of 15.18%] as stated in my editorial letter April 24). The

failure by the City Commission to extend their dynasty does not even warrant comment.

Fourth, will someone finally bury that ridiculous, worthless OB Life topic. Anyone applauding same is not in the same galaxy as those who have sensed the reality of what is. How can anyone honestly believe that a minuscule number of attendees at those functions (including folks from outside the city limits) can be representative of the populous of this fair city? The voluminous book with alleged statistics outlining city residents needs and desires is, indeed, yet another example of taxpayer money waste. There can be nothing strategic about a simple statement, “smart growth,” which was preached by the commission’s opposition during last fall’s election period. Only then, did the commission decide to get on the “smart growth” bandwagon. I would like to see that “book” placed at our library for all to read.

And finally, but not least, the Memorial Day articles should be a must read for all. Then, D-Day was remembered on Thursday, June 6, which, in 1944, was significant to the history of this country. Coming up we have Flag Day on June 14. Fly it proudly.

Then fast forward to July 4, Independence Day, another national holiday. Be grateful for the sacrifices of our men and women in the service. So many have given so much so we can enjoy. Never forget!

Couple shares interest in fitness and wine.

WAYNE GRANT REAL ESTATE EDITOR

The Anytime Fitness franchise in the Trails Shopping Plaza at 302 N. Nova Road has new owners who are excited about getting their own fitness studio after talking about it for many years. Luca Pomaro and Bonnie Williamson, a married couple, bought the business June 3.

Pomaro, a former professional hockey player in Italy, and Williamson, who played soccer in high school, have been lifelong fitness enthusiasts.

“When I went to college, I didn’t play soccer anymore, so I started going to gyms,” Williamson said. “I never stopped.”

Fitness is not the only thing they have in common; There’s also wine. Both had their own wine import business and met in Sicily where they were shopping. Pomaro left his native Italy to come to America where they opened an import business together, which continues today.

Pomaro said wine in moderation is healthy.

“It’s been around for millennia,” he said.

The travel requirements of their wine business, with long hours of sitting, made them conscious of fitness even more. They were members of the Ormond Beach

Luca Pomaro and Bonnie Williamson recently purchased Anytime Fitness.

Anytime Fitness when they heard the owners were retiring after running it for 10 years.

“It worked out perfectly,” Williamson said.

They are excited about changes they plan for the facility, but do not want to make any announcements until further along, about a month from now.

Living nearby, they look forward to running a “neighborhood” gym.

“We’ve always been on the road, and now we have an opportunity to be part of the community,” Williamson said. “We want to help people make health happen.”

They came to the area because Williamson’s parents retired to Palm Coast from Connecticut.

“We like Ormond Beach,” Williamson said. “It has a cool little downtown … a cool little vibe.”

CAMP JAIL 11:45 a.m. — 1500 block of West Granada Boulevard Petit theft. When a 32-year-old Silver Springs man saw a tent for sale at a local supermarket, he thought: “It would be a good idea to get a tent to stay in.” At least that’s what he told police shortly after being arrested for stealing the tent.

Police report the man didn’t deny stealing the $191.98 tent, and was also found to have another man’s ID card and three credit cards belonging to a woman. The man said he found the ID card in a hotel parking lot and that the woman asked him to hold on to her credit cards for her. “They were in her car about a month ago and she forgot them,” he told officers.

The woman filed a police report against him after she was contacted. The man was taken to jail.

CRACK CHAPSTICK 3:50 a.m. — 200 block of Williamson Boulevard Cocaine. A 44-year-old Ormond Beach woman thought herself clever for hiding cocaine in a chapstick, and when police discovered her drug’s hiding spot, she was caught by surprise. “I thought hiding it in the chapstick was a smart idea,” she told police according to the report.

“How did you figure that out?”

Police pulled the woman over after seeing her vehicle jerking all over the road due to its front right tire being off the rim. Before the officer exited his patrol car, he saw the woman

flailing her arms and with her body hanging halfway out of the window, according to the report.

After making contact with her, the officer suspected she was on drugs.

A search of her vehicle resulted in a crack pipe and the chapstick, which had cocaine residue inside. The woman told police that “if you guys had caught me earlier, you would have been even happier. That’s when I had the stuff.” She said she had smoked it all and that’s why the chapstick didn’t have much inside.

She was taken to jail.

A 57-year-old Ocala man didn’t wait until he was in handcuffs to call someone and ask them to get him out of jail, as a police officer overheard his phone conversation while approaching his car. “I am going to jail,” the man said to someone on the phone, according to the report. “I got caught again and call the bondsman and get me out.”

The police officer then asked him if he knew he shouldn’t be driving, seeing as his record showed he had a revoked license and numerous DUIs. The man said he did. He was taken to jail.

Former day care worker facing child abuse charges JARLEENE ALMENAS NEWS EDITOR

A 65-year-old Ormond Beach former day care worker is facing four counts of child abuse charges after video surveillance from May 23 uncovered at least 30 incidents of mistreatment of small children at Dream City Academy, police reported.

Katherine Weitz was fired that same day after the day care office manager began investigating due to hearing the repeated crying of a child. The office manager checked the live video feed to identify which room the crying was coming from, and saw Weitz roughly treating a child, according to the police report. The office manager then contacted the business owner, and continued to monitor the video feed until the business owner arrived.

Weitz was then removed from the classroom and questioned by day care management on her treatment of the child, which included shaking and slapping in the face.

The business owner contacted Ormond Beach police the following day, after reaching out to the abuse hotline unsuccessfully. The police report states she was told by the hotline that, unless there were documented injuries on children, a case could not be opened.

Weitz was supervising a room of six children on May 23, and according to police, video sur-

veillance showed her picking children off the cots roughly, “jerking” them into position, shaking them near eye-level, flipping them over, tossing them onto their cots, pushing their faces into the cots, and slapping them in the face.

The parents of the victims involved told police they wished to pursue charges, being “visibly upset to the point of tears and extreme anger” as they saw how their children were treated, police report.

Ormond Beach police contacted Weitz at her home on May 30, where she told them May 23 was her third day of working full-time, as she was initially hired as a part-time employee.

She said has taken care of children since she was 11 and had two adult children of her own.

She admitted that she “lost her temper that day,” according to the police report.

Weitz denied slamming a child into a cot. She told police she was “very tired and frustrated that day,” and that she shouldn’t have gone into work.

She said she knew what she did was wrong, and wondered what it would cost her. When asked if she considered her actions to be child abuse, police report that Weitz said she hoped it wouldn’t be.

Weitz has no prior criminal history or incidents.

The office manager began investigating due to hearing the repeated crying of a child.

Katherine Weitz said she was tired and frustrated that day but denied slamming a child into a cot.

Growth coming to ‘hot corner’ near Ormond Apartments are being built, but the rent may be challenging.

WAYNE GRANT REAL ESTATE EDITOR

The LPGA/Williamson area near Ormond Beach was described as “the hot corner” by Larry Bartlett, Volusia County property appraiser, at the annual VCARD Real Estate Values Forum on June 7 at Halifax Plantation Golf Club.

“This is where the growth is happening,” he said.

Along with the Margaritaville and Mosaic communities under construction, two new apartment buildings have been built in the area — Sands Parc, 264 units; and Tomoka Pointe, 276 units — and one is under construction: 500 East, with 301 units.

The demand for apartments is rising, Bartlett said, because many people, particularly millennials, want to stay mobile. The downside, he said, is that single-family-home neighborhoods are more stable and pay more taxes.

Another guest speaker at the forum was Luke S. Wickham, senior vice president at CBRE Group Inc., a national company in multifamily real estate.

He said no apartments were built in the Daytona Beach area between 2009 and 2015, and job growth has created demand. Even with increasing rents, apartment complexes are finding renters.

He cited the two hospitals as employers supplying renters for

luxury apartments.

According to rentcafe.com, the average rent is lowest in South Daytona at $1,015 per month and highest in Port Orange at $1,193 and Ormond Beach at $1,181. But the rent for a two-bedroom apartment in Tomoka Pointe, a Class A luxury apartment in the hot corner, starts at $1,450, according to www.tomokapointe.com.

According to a statement from VCARD, there are an estimated 4,500 apartment units now in the development pipeline, almost all in the Class A luxury category.

Wickham said a person should earn 2.5 to 3 times the rent to afford an apartment.

To supply properties with lower rent, Wickham said, it would be necessary to construct an apartment building using tax credits and government grants, because of the cost of construction.

A workforce housing project was planned in Ormond Beach a few years ago west of Interstate 95, but the developer could not get tax credits. An extended-stay hotel is now being built on the lot.

‘WHERE THE GROWTH IS HAPPENING’ The hot corner will see about 1,000 apartments in coming months.

ing of Latitude Center, the gathering place for the community.

Originally, plans called for Phase 2, which would continue Margaritaville north to State Road 40. But Minto, the developer, backed out, citing increased impact fees and other costs, and the land north has since been purchased by an unnamed developer.

There was anticipation of Tymber Creek Road being extended all the way to S.R. 40, and this will likely still happen, because there is an agreement with the county that when developed, the landowner will extend the road.

When Margaritaville began selling lots, the prices started

Smart growth conversation to return in September JARLEENE ALMENAS NEWS EDITOR

at $225,000, but they now start around $250,000. Bill Bullock, president of Minto’s Latitude Margaritaville Division, cited the cost of labor and materials.

But a new model, the Conch Cottage, will be closer to $200,000.

“We’re nimble,” Bullock said. “We can adjust to the market.” About 700 total homesites have been sold.

Another new wrinkle is that a prospective buyer can rent a villa for three days to see if they like the community.

Bullock said at the grand opening that after showing brochures and renderings for months, he enjoyed seeing the happy faces of residents as they saw the completed Latitude Center, which includes a bandshell, fitness center, large swimming pool, restaurants and bars. There are also tennis and pickleball courts and a nature trail, and more amenities are planned. A Publix-anchored retail center is being constructed only a golf cart ride away.

Volusia County elected officials are hoping to dive into the smart growth conversation after the summer, once each municipality agrees to participate and all city and county planners discuss the topic among themselves.

This was the consensus reached at the Volusia County Elected Officials Roundtable meeting on Monday, June 10. The government leaders listened to a presentation

by Clay Ervin, county director of Growth and Resource Management, on smart growth, as well as local attorney Glenn Storch, who said he looked at growth like a “three-legged stool.” Elected officials need to take into consideration what the community, residents and landowners all need, he said.

If growth doesn’t happen, he said, people could see another recession. To prevent that, government should encourage the “right kind” of investment and redevelopment. Storch spoke about tree preservation, and how it enhances properties and quality of life in the areas affected.

City and county leaders should be encouraging growth that minimizes traffic congestion, as the key to quality of life is traffic, Storch said. Elected officials could also speed up reviews for projects that are favorable as a way to incentivize them, he said.

County Manager George Reck-

tenwald said he wanted to make sure the elected officials all had a clear focus of what they wanted out of this smart growth discussion, as he has a “bookshelf full of studies” in his office.

In response, County Council Chair Ed Kelley said that everybody is concerned about growth.

Having Ervin work with other city planners is a way to start addressing this, and that the process will likely take a couple of months.

He also said leadership on the subject should come from members of the public so that they see transparency.

“Let them be aware of what exactly what we can and cannot do by law,” Kelley said. “We need to have everybody on board to understand the constraints that we’re facing.”

The next roundtable meeting will take place in September.

LESSONS LEARNED FROM THE HALFCENT SALES TAX:

sales tax vote with a different perspective.

He said he believes that the people who voted for it saw the infrastructure needs and that those who voted against it also saw the need, but voted against the elected officials.

They need to take that to heart, Burnette said, and reexamine their actions as leaders. If they don’t, it would be “foolish” of them, he added.

“We should all take the time to take a little bit of inventory within ourselves and elected officials,” Burnette said. “How are we doing our jobs? Are we doing our jobs right? Are we listening?”

The longer an elected official is in office, the harder it is to have a “heartbeat” in the community, Burnette said. Elected officials need to continue to make that commitment, otherwise it’ll be hard to make decisions for the people, he said.

Ormond Beach Mayor Bill Partington said that, though the sales tax failed, the ballot allowed Ormond to get additional questions answered, referencing the four-year staggered terms and term-limit questions on the ballot. Only adding the participation of a primary election in races with two or more candidates passed in the city.

The sales tax vote also allowed all the municipalities and the county to create priority lists of projects.

“I don’t think anything like that existed at that level before, and so I think that was a tremendously valuable thing,” Partington said.

He also said it got the 16 cities and the county working together, which had been lacking before.

Port Orange Mayor Don Burnette walked away from the failed

Seabreeze shows out in 7-on-7 scrimmage at Pedro Menendez RAY BOONE SPORTS EDITOR

Sandcrabs head football coach Pat Brown entered his first spring practice with Seabreeze with a focus on competing hard and finishing games.

The Sandcrabs played against Eau Gallie, a team they lost to 47-7 during the 2018 regular season, for their annual spring game on May 16, capping off spring practice with a 31-14 loss to the Commodores.

The Sandcrabs competed — but didn’t finish.

And for the first time in a while, the offense and defense were able to click.

Although the Sandcrabs still had momentary lapses, several players still made tough catches, athletic interceptions and pinpoint throws. Throughout the entirety of the camp — which saw the Sandcrabs square off against Matanzas, St. Joseph’s Academy and Pedro Menendez — there was no let down in intensity from Seabreeze.

“Our focus now is on finishing and then dominating,” Brown said. “This was good for our confidence.

Now, we have to keep it rolling.”

The Sandcrabs had at least two interceptions in every game, and they picked off three passes against Matanzas. However, the play of the day (arguably) came from rising junior

Chris Lewis, who played on both sides of the ball for Seabreeze during the scrimmage.

In Seabreeze’s final game of the day, against Pedro Menendez, Lewis shook the defensive back off the line. He ran a skinny post, with the DB a few steps behind him. Sandcrabs quarterback Blake Boda launched a pass 40 yards downfield into the end zone. Lewis leapt into the air and caught the ball over the outstretched hands of the defender.

Touchdown.

“It was good competition today,” Lewis said. “Our confidence was boosted way up.”

The Sandcrabs are scheduled to play in several more 7-on-7 events throughout the summer: on June 8 at Florida State University, on June 14 at the University of Florida, on June 15 at the University of Central Florida and on July 12 at University High School.

With each practice, each weight lifting session and each game, the Sandcrabs are getting bigger, faster, stronger and more ready for the upcoming season under their new head coach.

“Coach Brown knows what he’s doing,” rising senior Latrae Bass said. “He’s showing us the way.”

YOUR NEIGHBORS Q: Years before “The Voice,” you had a record deal that “went south” in Nashville.

What did you learn from that experience?

A: I think that’s probably pretty

common ground for artists, from what I hear. Artists hear more noes than yeses. It’s just the lay of the land. Everything is about timing — who you know and when you know them. If talent was the only factor, there would be a lot of folks out there making great careers. After being on the show, for me personally, my timing is now, and we’re doing everything we can to make it happen.

KALEB LEE’S

NEXT STAGE

Q: You rhyme “Yeti” with “Petty” in the song “Cooler Weather,” which you co-wrote.

Specific references like that seem to be a characteristic of a lot of country songs. Why do you think that is?

A: They say in Nashville, “It’s

about three chords and the truth.” I think that’s why people gravitate to country music. It’s about life.

Country music has gone so much more pop than it used to, but even then, it’s more about the song than about the hook or the beat.

Q: What’s your role in writing the songs on the album?

A: There are a couple songs on

Kaleb Lee: "They say in Nashville, 'It’s about three chords and the truth.' I think that’s why people gravitate to country music. It’s about life."

Q+A KALEB LEE Ormond Beach’s own will release a single with Kelly Clarkson in the coming months.

BRIAN MCMILLAN EXECUTIVE EDITOR

A

lthough he always wanted to be a country singer, Kaleb Lee never dreamed that some day, a star as successful as Kelly Clarkson would pitch a song for him to sing. But Lee, who grew up in rural Kentucky and is raising his family in Ormond Beach, could be on the verge of the big time, with Clarkson backing him up.

After getting national exposure and a musical “boot camp” as a contestant on “The Voice,” he released a single (“Cooler Weather”) on his own label, and he has a second one scheduled for release on July 19, “I Need a Drink,” which he describes as another “fun, summer tune.” His third single will be “I Dream in Southern,” the song Clarkson brought to Lee, asking him to sing it with her as the title track on his first full-length album, coming out in the fall. She is the executive producer of the album, he said.

“It’s funny how life works out sometimes,” Lee said.

He spoke with the Ormond Beach Observer while he was on the road, playing in small venues and in bars in California, or, as he calls it, “hustling,” as he chases the dream of landing a deal with a big record label.

Q: What songs inspired you to say, “I want to be a country star”?

A: We grew up on country music

— Garth Brooks, George Strait, Travis Tritt — so it was a way of life. In rural Kentucky, that was the only music that was on the radio. It was the music that talked about what we did for a living.

The first song I ever sang in front of people was in an elementary school talent show, “Two of a Kind,” by Garth Brooks.

Q: What was it like working with Kelly Clarkson on “The Voice”?

A: Kelly was awesome. She was

It gives you something to aspire to.

Q: You recently performed shows in California with Pryor Baird, whom you met on “The Voice.” Does the bromance continue?

A: That a--h---- is driving me

right now, in the truck. Prior’s one of my best friends. He’s out hustling and doing the same thing I am. When you hang out so much with people on the show, you either learn to love them or hate them. I learned to love this guy. You walk away with friendships that are life long.

the album that I didn’t write, but the rest of them I did, with a couple of other guys. For me, that’s one of the most important pieces as an artist: It’s so much easier to sing and play songs that you were part of conceptually.

Q: You recently performed at the Pocono 400 pre-race concert in Pennsylvania, and then at the Colorado Summer Games opening ceremonies, then to California. What do you like about being on the road?

What do you not like?

A: I love being on the road. I have

such a good local following, but part of the hustle is getting out and building more and more of that everywhere else. What I like is you can see a lot of new people see a lot of new fans. The part I hate is being away from family and home, but we all know what we signed up for, and this is part of it.

always a huge fan on the show, and super supportive as a coach.

After the show, she’s been great.

She’s the executive producer of the album I’ll be releasing in the fall and she’s singing on one of the songs. She and her team have helped out a ton.

Q: What did you learn from “The Voice” that still impacts your career outlook today?

A: The show gives you a perspec-

tive of what the music business is like. As a younger artist, you play a lot of gigs, bars or restaurants, or smaller venues, and you kind of working you’re a-- off.

You’re hustling, and sometimes it’s hard to get the bigger picture. Being on the show gives you a picture of that. It’s the big leagues: the best musicians, the best bands, the best production the world, some of the best coaches and people around you.

Kelly Clarkson was a big fan of Kaleb Lee's on "The Voice" and continues to work with him today.
