Dress for Success – Without a Uniform With the start of school right around the corner students and parents alike are anxiously planning new wardrobes for the 2009-2010 school year. What’s hot? What’s not? What’s cool? And what is acceptable to wear to school? …….are the questions surfacing as students prepare to journey back to the classroom. Huron City School students can “dress for success” without having a school uniform policy in place for the 2009-2010 school year. The Board of Education would have to announce 18 months prior to mandating a school uniform policy. There has been no such announcement. Back in May of 2008, the Huron Board of Education researched and explored the idea of considered implementing a school uniform/restricted dress code policy. Prior to establishing a new policy the Board requested that Superintendent Fred Fox conduct an extensive survey to collect input on how parents, students and staff felt about this consideration. The Huron PTO helped gather and organize the results after the district sent surveys to parents, students and staff for students in grades 5-10. A one page survey was mailed the end of March 2008 to 850 households with children

enrolled in the district. Respondents had four weeks to return the survey to the school via mail or drop off. The survey included six questions related to uniforms/restrictive dress codes. A Uniform/ restrictive dress code was defined as clothing consisting of limited colors and styles. The six questions were asked using a five-point scale ranging from strongly disagrees to strongly agree. The survey also captured in which school or schools the respondent had students enrolled. There was an optional place for names and a spot for comments. Of the 850 surveys that went out; 364 were returned. The response rate across the system was 43 percent. For complete details of the survey logon to: www.huron-city.k12.oh.us. All of the information was numbered and coded and entered into an Excel file. From there it was entered into SAS – Statistic Analysis Program. The results….. “There was no clear majority on what parents and staff wanted, however, there was a clear majority of students who were very much against a uniform policy,” Stated Fred Fox, Superintendent.
Fox was pleased with the number of parents who took the time to fill out the survey. “The results were a little surprising,” Fox added. “It seems the pro-uniform advocates are more vocal. I heard very little from the parent who did not want a change until the survey was circulated,” he continued. Fox’s recommendation to the Board was not to make a change to the current dress code, however asked all staff members to work together to enforce the current dress code policy. By simply adhering to the current dress code policy would be a starting point to eliminating some of the problems. At the high school level this past year (2008-2009), the staff began enforcement of successful dressing. Torn or ripped clothing, pajama tops and bottoms were no longer acceptable. Students who showed up for school not dressed properly were sent home to change their clothing. The current dress code policy is outlined in the student handbook and is available to every student at the start of the year. As students venture back to the classroom this fall staff members in all buildings will be paying close attention to acceptable “successful” classroom attire.
Council Perspective Focused on Continued Improvement at Conagra Andy White, City Manager At a special session of the Council conducted Monday afternoon at City Hall, authorization was given to the City Manager to enter into a service agreement for the purpose of submitting an application to the Clean Ohio Revitalization Fund (CORF) for environmental remediation and site improvements at the former Conagra property. In a 6 – 1 vote Council approved a resolution to retain engineering firm Hull and Associates to manage all facets of a grant submission to the state by January 2010. The contract sum shall not exceed $125,500.00 and will provide several expert functions including, but not limited to: a phase I environmental property assessment ($7,500); a building material survey ($8,000); zero sum demolition specifications ($5,000); a phase II environmental property assessment ($50,000); construction management services for the demolition work ($25,000); and preparation of the city’s CORF grant application ($30,000). A successful application will accommodate up to $2,000,000.00 for the revitalization of the parcel. The Clean Ohio Fund was established to provide assistance in restoring brownfield properties and encourage redevelopment to revitalize communities; in 2000, and again in 2008, Ohio citizens approved the $400 million bond program. In order to make application to the program the city must provide detailed information supporting its request for funds. The funds may be used for the acquisition of property, demolition, remediation of contaminated soil and ground water, infrastructure and consulting services. Prior to acquiring the Conagra property, the Ohio Department of Natural Resources completed a Phase I ASTM environmental assessment required to support the real estate transaction. In its application to the Clean Ohio Fund the city is anticipating future development on the property that will promote public access to the site and will require a more in depth environmental analysis to ensure the public’s safety. Phase I will establish the potential for contamination on the property and Phase II will identify specific locations and levels of contamination on the property. The two environmental assessments are expected to cost approximately $57,500.00 and will be provided for as part of the city’s contract with Hull and Associates. I recommended Council approval of this contract for a several reasons. First, there are several priorities essential to the successful transition of this property that cannot be accommodated within the city’s internal organizational structure. The Phase I and Phase

II environmental assessments are mandatory components of the city’s application for a Clean Ohio grant award. In addition, the assessments will be necessary to determine the quality of the property and its ultimate new use. Regardless of the application to the state, the city wishes to transition the property and without appropriate disclosure specifically describing the quality of the site, redevelopment may be limited. An appropriate designation now will initiate a final improvement that can accommodate whatever development concept ultimately selected by the Council. The additional benefit of determining this information today allows the city to position itself well for a grant award that will eliminate additional costs to the city.
The Clean Ohio Fund is a match grant program requiring the applicant to provide 25% of the total award. In this case that would mean a maximum of $500,000.00 cost to the city for a $2,000,000.00 project. However, the current circumstances locally present a limited opportunity to consider the public boat ramp project costs as the city’s match and eliminate any additional out of pocket expense for the grant submission. However, monies dedicated for the boat ramp may only be considered as part of the local match for a period of 24 months from the start of the project. Thus, in this case, time is of the essence the clock is ticking for the city to maximize the benefit of the ODNR grant. In addition to acquiring the property and the grant funds to support the boat launch Council’s action has positioned the community to extend these project benefits by utilizing its value as the city’s 25% match. This would yield a savings of $500,000.00 for a $2,000,000.00 project award. The current period of economic decline has most local governments scrambling just to provide enough resources to continue on with status quo operational services. The Clean Ohio Fund awards grants on a competitive basis and considers applications by state district. There are 18 total districts and the City of Huron is located in District 5. At the time
of this report, there are no known projects pending in ODOD District 5. An assignment of the top priority for the district will generate a high score for the application and be a determining factor in the state’s final award. In addition to priority status, the city’s application will also garner additional consideration as a first time applicant and as the owner of the affected property. Many communities in Ohio apply for this grant prior to acquiring the actual property to be revitalized. These circumstances provide a competitive advantage for the city today. Financially, the city will begin expending resources for this service in the fall and complete its last payments in the late spring of 2010. I have directed the Finance Director to encumber the necessary funds from the Capital Improvement fund immediately upon Council approval. The Finance Committee’s recently recommended authorizing my recommendation to eliminate $160,000.00 of discretionary capital resources from the budget to maintain the city’s bottom line for the remainder of the year. Even with this reduction the committee’s review demonstrated the availability of approximately $276,000.00 of available resources. Encumbering the Hull service contract amount will provide for the entire project to be completed and still yield $150,000.00 for additional capital work in the city with 2009 operational resources. Pursuing this opportunity now capitalizes the city’s potential to improve itself immediately and long term. The residual effect of Conagra’s improvement will impact property valuations throughout the area and generate new revenues for a number of local governments as a result. In theory, improving the city’s riverfront will also serve as an attraction to new residents and ultimately yield new resources to accommodate first rate service improvements supported by the generation of income from new residents and visitors. The Conagra property has generated much interest from potential developers over the last few years, but no final development agreement. If the CORF application accommodates a successful award, the community will be the recipient of a $2,000,000.00 improvement project and almost eleven acres of Lake Erie waterfront property poised for development for a cost of $125,000.00 -- or 6.3% of the total project. A completely new site, adjoining the new public boat launch, can be established and help attract private investment and create an enduring economic engine along the river. The circumstances surrounding this one parcel are essential to the reestablishment of the traditional center of commerce in the heart of downtown on both sides of the river.

FirstEnergy contributes $25,000 to Firelands Habitat for Humanity
FROM THE BENCH
License suspension for dropouts By Judge Bill Steuk, Huron Municipal Court There are more than 30 ways one can have his/her driver license suspended.One way involves minors who drop out of high school or are habitually absent. Pursuant to Ohio Revised Code Section 4410.32, in conjunction with Section 3321.13, a school superintendent can notify the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) of a student’s unauthorized withdrawal from school or habitual absence without a legitimate excuse, or the student’s suspension or expulsion for use or possession of alcohol or a drug of abuse, and ask for a suspension of the student’s driver license. The suspension can last until the minor reaches the age of eighteen (18) unless: • the minor provides evidence of a high school diploma or general education development certificate of high school equivalence, or • the suspension was imposed due to error, or • the superintendent informs the BMV that the minor has satisfied the terms or conditions necessary to terminate the suspension, or • in a drop out situation, the superintendent informs the BMV that the minor is now attending or enrolled in an approved program to obtain a diploma or its equivalent. A juvenile subject to this suspension can appeal to have the suspension removed. If the suspension is lifted, the juvenile most likely will be required to pay a reinstatement fee to re-acquire his/her driver license. If you desire further information in regards to this or other types of license suspensions, please visit the Bureau of Motor Vehicles website at www.bmv.ohio.gov. Articles appearing in this column are intended to provide broad, general information about the law. Before applying this information to a specific legal problem, readers are urged to seek advice from an attorney.
FirstEnergy Corp. is joining Firelands Habitat for Humanity to sponsor and also help build a home in Huron County. The three-bedroom, one-bathroom home in Norwalk will be for the VanMeter family. Construction on has begun and will continue through late October. This home is part of FirstEnergy’s state-wide effort to support Habitat for Humanity with its goal of providing simple, decent and affordable shelter for people in need. Since 2002, the Akron-based utility has been a tremendous partner by providing over $18 million in house sponsorships to Ohio Habitat affiliates that helped finance the construction of over 400 Habitat homes. Each of the Habitat for Humanity homes are built and certified to EnergyStar™ energy efficiency standards. “We are pleased to continue our long-standing partnership with Habitat for Humanity to help people in our communities realize the dream of homeownership,” said FirstEnergy President and Chief Executive Officer Anthony J. Alexander.
“The partnership with First Energy has enabled our local affiliate to build six homes in past years, and we are thankful for their continued dedication toward our mission,” said Barbara Miller, Executive Director of Firelands Habitat for Humanity. The funds were committed under FirstEnergy’s Ohio Rate Stabilization Plan, and are not a donation from the FirstEnergy Foundation. In addition to FirstEnergy’s financial support, its employees have donated their time to help build the homes, joining with Habitat’s local volunteers to improve communities and the lives of families in Erie and Huron counties. According to the most recent census, more than 750,000 Ohio residents live in poverty, and nearly one out of every four Ohio families spends more than 30 percent of its income on housing. With its contributions, FirstEnergy is doing its part to help eliminate substandard housing in Ohio by building affordable, energy-efficient homes in partnership with low-income families.
BEHIND THE BADGE
Huron police launch crackdown on impaired driving America is facing an impaired-driving crisis and the problem is especially acute during the summer months. That’s why Huron Police today announced it will join other police agencies throughout the country in support of an intensive crackdown on impaired driving this August 21–September 7. Nationally, many law enforcement agencies will be participating in this year’s crackdown, known by its tagline: Drunk Driving. Over the Limit. Under Arrest. In 2006 alone, nearly 13,500 people died in crashes in which the driver or motorcycle rider was legally impaired, according to the latest statistics from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Among them were 306 children under age 15 — innocent victims of crashes that could have been avoided. “All too often, innocent law-abiding people suffer tragic consequences and the loss of loved ones due to this careless disregard for human life. Because we’re committed to ending the carnage, we’re intensifying enforcement during the crackdown. We’ll be especially vigilant during highrisk nighttime hours when impaired drivers are most likely to be on our roads,” said John Majoy, Acting Chief of Police. In every U.S. State as well as the District of Columbia it’s illegal to drive with a blood alcohol concentra-

tion (BAC) of .08 grams per deciliter (g/dL) or higher. More than 10,000 police agencies will participate in this year’s mid-August through Labor Day crackdown, including law enforcement officers representing every State, the District of Columbia, and many U.S. cities and towns. According to the latest data, 32 percent of motor vehicle driving fatalities involved a driver or motorcycle rider with a BAC of .08 g/dL or above — an average of one fatality every 39 minutes. Majoy said Huron Officers will be aggressively looking for all impaired drivers during the crackdown and will arrest anyone they find driving while impaired — regardless of age, vehicle type, or time of day. “Our message is simple and unwavering. If we find you driving impaired, we will arrest you. No exceptions,” said Majoy. “Even if you beat the odds and walk away from an impaired-driving crash alive, motorists should be aware that the consequences of driving while impaired can still virtually destroy your life.” According to the Huron Police Department, violators often face jail time, loss of their driver licenses, or being sentenced to use an ignition interlock. Their insurance rates go up. Other financial hits include attorney fees, court costs, lost time at work, and the potential loss of job or job prospects. When family, friends, and co-workers find out, violators can also face tremendous personal embarrassment and humiliation. “Driving impaired is simply not worth all the consequences. So don’t take the chance. Remember, if you are over the limit, you’re under arrest,” said Majoy.
Huron — The Huron Chamber of Commerce’s Don Billman Memorial Golf Outing marks 13 years of great golf and good times with this year’s event, planned for Wednesday, Sept. 16 at Thunderbird Hills North Course.

The New Look of your School Lunch Let’s start with Shawnee Elementary. We have designed a 5-week cycle for our students here. Students will receive a full size magnetic menu to place on their fridge. A cycle menu works like this… each week is color-coded. That particular color is then marked on the school calendar. Since the first week of the cycle is BLUE and we start school on a Wednesday of that week, lunch would be, mini corn dogs, French fries, animal crackers, seasonal fresh fruit and milk. If there would be some reason for school to be closed on a regular school day, lunch would be what is listed for the day students
return. Hopefully this will make it easier for our students to know, “What’s for lunch?” Peanut butter and jelly sandwich will continue to be offered as a second lunch choice. We are currently trying to work out someway of offering a breakfast at Shawnee but haven’t completed that as of yet. We’ll keep you posted. Woodlands Intermediate will also be on the same 5-week menu cycle as Shawnee and receive a magnetic menu. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and a veggie salad with cheese & crackers will also be offered daily. Also new this year at Woodlands will

be breakfast starting Tuesday, September 8th. Waiting until then will give our students time to get used to their bus routes and back into school mode. This will be a “grab & go” type breakfast. Allowing our customers the opportunity to purchase and consume breakfast while still getting to class on time. Breakfast offering is also listed on the magnetic menu and can be purchased the same way as lunch. Breakfast will cost an additional $1.25 per day. Free to those on free lunch and $0.30 a day for those students on reduced lunch. We will continue to offer limited ala carte items at Woodlands. Ala carte items and prices will be listed on our school website soon along with nutritional information for each meal. McCormick Junior High and Huron High School’s lunch and breakfast programs will stay the same. They are on a different 5-week cycle menu than Shawnee and Woodlands, though. These two cafeterias offer your student much more than just a regular school
lunch on a daily basis. Offering between 4-6 entrée’s each day. If a student buys a regular lunch they may get an extra main dish item for $1.00, (half the cost of buying it without a lunch). We have found that most students in these two buildings really don’t worry about seeing a printed menu because of so many choices. We have “paper” copies of their menu if the students would like a copy and it is posted on our website, also. Breakfast at these buildings is $1.50 per day and of course, if your student is on free lunch they can also receive a free breakfast. Reduced student will be charged $0.30 additional for breakfast. All cafeterias will be offering a wide variety of fresh fruit and vegetables. We will be working with The Chef ’s Garden and Mulvin’s Farm Market to expand our offering. More whole wheat/whole grain items will be incorporated also. We hope all our customers will enjoy our new menu.
