Newell Creek bikeway project pedals forward in Mentor BY IDALITA RASO Gazette Newspapers MENTOR - City Council approved six property acquisitions for easements related to building a 4,000-foot multi-use trail in the Newell Creek Development at its June 17 meeting. “It’s been 10 years in the making and I’m glad it’s finally moving forward. It’s long overdue,” said Councilman at large Scott Marn. According to Mentor engineer Dave Swiger, the Newell Creek Bike Trail will be a 10-foot-wide, asphalt-paved path surrounded by green space. The path will run along Norton Parkway and the Garfield Road/Route 84 intersection.
“The trail will be open to the public and managed by Lake Metroparks,” said City Manager Kenneth Filipiak. The project is a joint venture with Lake Metroparks and is being funded entirely with federal funds. The total cost of the acquisitions is approximately $71,000. The bike trail construction is expected to cost about $450,000. In other council business: Council approved an ordinance authorizing a cooperative agreement with the Lake County Department of Utilities for a storm and sanitary sewer evaluation in the city at a cost of $398,400. The cost of the study will be divided between the two entities. It is anticipated to be completed in
November. URS Engineering was hired to conduct the study and will be monitoring seasonal and hydraulic flow - both wet and dry, and ways to alleviate basement backups. “The city has dealt with URS Engineering in the past and I believe they understand what the city needs. I have high hopes for this,” Filipiak said. An ordinance authorizing the city manager to enter into a contract with Classic Ford of Mentor for the purchase of six 2015 police Interceptor vehicles for $177,540 was also approved by City Council. The next regular meeting of council will be at 7 p.m. Tuesday, July 1.

Port authority votes to receive Lost Nation Airport should result in a significant contribution to our local economy.” Lost Nation, a reliever airport for Cleveland Hopkins International Airport, is self-supported by rents from six existing businesses and 86 airplanes based there. It is responsible for the employment of 120 persons with a total payroll of nearly $3 million, and adds a total impact to the local economy of over $7 million annually, according to the 2006 study done by the Ohio Department of Transportation Department of Aviation. According to the Port Authority Board, the city of Willoughby has been a good steward of the airport for many years, and this transfer provides the opportunity to maintain operations and further develop airport land as a contributor to the regional economy and a continued asset to the community. The transfer will ensure that these jobs will remain in Lake County and that businesses like the Lost Nation See AIRPORT on Page 2

In other business: • Board Chair Paul Malchesky swore in parttime firefighter/paramedic Anthony Marut. • Fiscal officer Amy Dawson reported she did a streetlight audit with Dave Dillon of FirstEnergy since the details had been removed from the bills in 2009. The audit showed the Township was being billed correctly. • Galloway said he, Mitchell and Dawson attended Cong. Dave Joyce’s conference in Washington, D.C. the previous weekend. “We had a very informative meeting with EPA in Washington and some of the ancillary Army Corps groups as it relates to some of their new water regulations and how they might affect the Township … ” Galloway said. • Fire Chief Mike Warner reported they had 168 runs for May, nine motor vehicle crashes, 29 basic rescue calls, 72 paramedic calls and three structure fires.

Warner said cell phones and other electronic gadgets are not always the best when calling 911 for help. “For example, if you live in a complex, like a condo or apartment complex, the 911 operator may be able to locate the general area you’re in, but not the exact unit,” the chief said. “Unless you keep talking to the 911 operator and provide an exact address, first responders may have to go door-to-door to find you, wasting valuable time.” Cell phone users should register with the Lake County Sheriff’s Office to receive emergency alerts at 350-5455. • Service Director Frank Kraska reported his department repaired 80 inlet basins in May. A number of ditch lines were excavated and crack sealing continues. • Assistant Zoning Inspector Bruce Bullard reported 50 permits were issued, of which 13 were for new dwellings.

Michael Reed of the Lake County Sheriff’s Office reported there were 1,505 calls for the month of May with seven injury accidents and 13 property accidents. There were three disorderly conduct arrests, one for domestic violence, two operating vehicles intoxicated and one for leaving the scene of an accident. New investigations included: three burglaries, two bad checks, one for drugs, 11 thefts, three menacing, one trespassing and three vandalisms. • It was noted they would like anyone who will be soliciting in the Township contact the Township. Residents are encouraged to call the hall about solicitors if they have concerns. • The trustees approved the following: the unappointment of Kathy Mitchell from her positions as planning and zoning director/zoning inspector and secretary to zoning boards and her appointment as township administrator; and the promotion of Bruce Bullard to zoning inspector and secretary to zoning boards. • The trustees passed a resolution asking for the county auditor’s certification of total funds which would be generated by the renewal of a 1-mill police protection levy.
• The trustees accepted the resignation of PTFF/ paramedic Kevin Doman. • The trustees approved advertising for bids for the Summer Road Program with a bid opening date of July 9. • The trustees approved seasonal hires for the Service Department of Scott Hanslik and Brad Dodick. • The trustees approved Summerwood PUD, Phase IV – L&M. • The next regular meeting of the trustees will be Wednesday, July 2.

Lake Health TriPoint dedicates new path BY WJ KEACH Gazette Newspapers CONCORD TOWNSHIP – The Wellness Walk is open for business, well actually … it’s open for walking. A barrier-free path winds for seven-tenths of a mile through TriPoint Medical Center’s wooded campus. Exercise stations, meditation areas, a children’s play area, a viewing platform, a musical garden and a boardwalk mean a variety of experiences. Whether in the mood for a leisurely stroll or more strenuous physical activity, the Wellness Walk can provide the platform. Financing came from a variety of sources. Kevin Farrell of TriCounty Ambulances provided a $50,000 contribution. Bill and Beth Cassella were major contributors and the Lake Health team members purchased pavers. Captains Charities, the philanthropic wing of the Lake County Captains, donated $10,000 and many other local businesses, individuals and organizations also added financial support. One such individual was Joe Grodze, who purchased a $1,000 paver. “I drove to the hospital Dec. 17, 2013. I wasn’t feeling well. I had congestion in my chest area. They took me

That’s why I wanted to contribute,” Grodze said. “The Wellness Walk exemplifies Lake Health’s commitment to the health and well-being of every member of the community, citizens and employees alike,” said Nancy Rodway, MD, director of Occupational Health Services at Lake Health and director of the Lake Health Department. “I can’t think of a more perfect way to relax and de-stress than immersing oneself in the spendor of TriPoint’s
beautiful grounds.” The $325,000 project is the first of its kind in Ohio and is available for anyone in the community, not just for patients or staff at TriPoint. The trail is “green” environmentally, with ‘Vitamin G benefits – vitamin G meaning get outside and exercise, studies show the fresh air is better for you. The walk was designed by Cawrse and Associates, landscape architects, Chagrin Falls. “The hospital wanted to provide a safe way for employees to get out and exercise rather than have people walking on drives and across
parking lots on their lunch hours,” said Richard Washington, ASLA, principal with Cawrse. “We did some planning studies and then the final construction documents for the trail. It’s anticipated that in the future the walk will be extended to a mile and a quarter, which will require crossing some streams with boardwalks.” The first 250 feet of the Wellness Walk is composed of Flexi-Pave, which uses re-

Industries, Shaker Heights. “It’s a green surfacing that not only reuses old tires but allows rain water to percolate through, thus causing less water run-

Pelagyi said the park was able to get a number of federal grants for the Bluffs and people from around the country who came to see the property were amazed there was such a natural area on the lake. The road to the park, the parking lot and a trail to the overlook will be paved for handicap access and to make access easier for senior citizens.

Fire chief reports EMS calls going down BY MARIAN MCMAHON Gazette Newspapers PAINESVILLE - Fire Chief Mark Mlachak told City Council the department is projecting, conservatively, that it will receive about 3,800 calls this year at the June 6 council meeting. On a 10-year graph, he showed how EMS transports were highest in 2010, the
year after LakeEast Hospital closed and moved to Concord Township, but the number was dropping each year since. “It’s an indication that people are getting used to the hospital being out of town,” Mlachak said. As the number of EMS calls are decreasing, so too are the number of billable runs.

The living room of the 2014 Lake County YMCA Dream House, between the great room and the kitchen, is designed for entertaining. The Dream Home is located at the Residences at Willoughby Pointe in historic downtown Willoughby and is now open for tours.
The chief reported the Public Relations and Education Programs are: fire extinguisher training, hands only CPR, smoke detector/public relations program, support of recreation programs, block parties, Party in the Park, Fire Safety Month Program and Fire Corps. The planned projects for 2014 are the replacement of the station exhaust system, purchase of hydraulic tools, replacement of an ambulance and completion of the purchase of the Council of Governments vehicle, which has been tabled. Mlachak spoke of the Painesville Safety Forces Foundation, created in 2011, and how there was training provided for chaplins to help deal with the community following sudden deaths and funding for the Fire Prevention Month programs. “The Foundation, this year, has been struggling to fund these projects due to not having any big fundraisers this year,” the chief said. The Foundation will have the First Annual Gala at LaMalfa Centre in Mentor Saturday, Oct. 4. Sponsors are needed. In other business: • Council presented a proclamation to Police Chief Troy Hager, who is retiring, in recognition of his 27 years
of service to the city. • A resident told council the condition of his street was very bad and is causing damage to his car and would like it fixed. He said he has looked at some of the streets councilmembers live on and they are in good shape. • Angelo Cimaglio of Owego Street said he was at his mother’s house and there was firing going on at the gun range at Atwell’s, even on Saturday and Sunday. “ … it is a nuisance to listen to those bullets and I don’t know why the city would let a gun range operate without (having noise restrictions),’” he said. Cimaglio said he believes in a strong Second Amendment, but he, and the neighbors there, do not want to hear all that gunfire, which is disruptive for outdoor family gatherings. “I’ve checked with other cities and they can’t believe that we would let this go on,” he said. Councilmember Mike DeLeone said the city measured the decibel levels at one time and the range did not exceed them so he did not know what the city could do about the sound. • Council held an executive session prior to the meeting to discuss personnel. LEGISLATION: • Council suspended the
rules and adopted a resolution adopting the tax budget for 2015 and declaring an emergency. A public hearing was held prior to the meeting on the tax budget. Director of Finance Andy Unetic reported there would be no change in property valuations for 2015. “This is an annual item of legislation that sets forth the anticipated property tax revenues and expected expenditures anticipated for 2015,” stated the City Manager’s Report. Unetic said they were expecting a surplus from the 2014 budget in the General Fund and the Bond Retirement Fund and others. “In 2015 we’re expected to bring in a little over $300,000 in property tax revenues for the Fire Improvement Levy and over $600,000 in property taxes for the Road Improvement Levy,” Unetic said. The 2015 Tax Budget must be submitted to the County before the middle of July. There were no comments. • Council adopted, on third reading, an ordinance re-issuing a one-year note for $565,000 for various capital projects and declaring an emergency. • Second reading was held on an ordinance amend-
ing Sections 167.07 and 167.09 relating to the Classification and Compensation Plan. • Council suspended the last reading and passed a resolution identifying the elimination of storm water flooding within the city as a primary goal of council supporting the city manager’s current efforts. • The following ordinances remained tabled: amending Section 1375.02 relating to vacant property/ building registration and authorizing an agreement with the East End Lake County Council of Governments for the joint purchase of an air/rescue truck. OLD BUSINESS: • Concerning the Prairie State Power Plant, Councilmember Andrew Flock said he would like to know how much the costs are for repairs following the explosion at Prairie State and if AMP participants would be assessed for them. • Assistant City Manager Doug Lewis said he received a letter from CSX Railroad confirming what had been discussed at a May meeting concerning Heisley Park. The letter also included a potential plan to plant trees (for a noise barrier). CSX would donate up to five trees.

Painesville switches to new emergency notification system PAINESVILLE – The city of Painesville’s new 911Cellular system will be utilized to update residents on emergency situations and their status. Residents and businesses who were previously registered with the CodeRED system need to reregister with the new 911Cellular system. City Manager Anthony Carson cautioned that such systems are only as good as the telephone number database supporting them. "If your phone number is not in the database, you will not be called," he said. The switch to the new 911Cellular system will continue to give individuals and businesses the ability to add their own phone numbers directly into the system's database. A registration alert will be sent through the former CodeRED system reminding residents and businesses to re-register with 911Cellular as soon as possible. The city of Painesville contracted with 911Cellular LLC to license its emergency high-speed notification solution. The new system provides city officials the ability to expedite messages to targeted areas or the entire city of Painesville. Upcoming new features will enhance communications while providing individuals the ability to communicate directly with the city utilizing their smartphones and modern technology. Highlights of a few new features, once instituted, include the ability for residents to report concerns, provide pictures of an area of concern, and have their concerns addressed in a timely manner. “No one should automatically assume his or her phone number is included,” Carson said urging all individuals and businesses to log onto the Painesville’s website, www.painesville .com, and click on the new icon (pictured above) for the "911Cellular" notification enrollment page. Those without Internet access may call Painesville’s Police Department at (440) 392-5840, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m.-5 p.m. to supply required information over the phone which includes: first and last name, physical street address (no P.O. boxes), city, state, zip code, home/business phone and cell phone numbers. All businesses should register, as well as all individuals who have unlisted phone numbers, and especially those who use a cellular phone or VoIP phone as their primary number. Personal information will only be used for notification pur-

Former school in Grand River Village demolished LAKE COUNTY – John Rogers, executive director of the Lake County Land Reutilization Corporation (Land Bank) and Mayor Christopher Conley, mayor of the Village of Grand River, jointly announced that through a collaborative effort, Hach Excavating and Demolition Inc. began razing the former Merrick Hutchison Elementary School, located at the eastern end of the Village’s square June 23. Demolition includes excavation of the foundation, debris removal, a clean backfill, grading and seeding. The work was to take seven to 10 days. Asbestos removal and its
proper disposal, pursuant to EPA and Health Agency guidelines, was recently completed. Merrick Hutchison School, constructed in 1926, was named in memory of Merrick Hutchison, honoring the only Grand River resident to have been killed in the First World War. Merrick was the son of James Hutchison, an early superintendent of the former Painesville Township Schools. The school closed its doors in 1989 due to declining enrollment. Subsequent use included housing programs offered by the Lake County Health Center and again, as an educational facility, ini-
tially housing the Western Reserve Montessori School. Bingo was a frequent activity within the building many years ago. The building which has been vacant approximately 10 years was acquired by the Village in January 2012. The total cost of this demolition project is $62,200 and is being funded in large measure by the Land Bank. Intended to assist the Village with its long-term commitment to enhancing the quality of life in the Grand River Community, the Land Bank’s involvement will enable the Village to allocate future funds for anticipated improvements to the site and a park-like square.

The show features such all-time favorite melodies as Bali Ha’i, Some Enchanted Evening and I’m Gonna Wash That Man Right Outta My Hair. “South Pacific” is directed by Brendan Sandham who has directed and performed in numerous productions at Rabbit Run, Fine Arts Association, Geauga Lyric Theater Guild and The Beck Center. “Having visited the South Pacific, I was struck by the great beauty of the region,” said Sandham. “We have tried to replicate that sense of beauty into the set and in the overall look and feel of the show.” “The actors have all embraced their characters wonderfully. Lindsay Leonard as Nellie Forbush and Brian Altman as Emile de Becque have added a humanity and realism to characters that can sometimes appear cartoonish. Josh Dean as the wheeling-dealing Billis, has found dimensions to his character that are both delightful and fun to watch.” Also performing in the show are Lincoln Sandham as Lieutenant Joe Cable, Carly Post as Liat and Maria Lister Lyons as Bloody Mary. “South Pacific” opens Friday, June 27 and runs through Saturday, July 12. Tickets for all performances are available by calling the box office at (440) 428-7092, Wednesday through Sunday, 3 to 7 p.m. or online at www.rabbitrunonline.org.

Adopt A Pet
My name is Louie Blue Eyes, and I am one handsome cat (if I must say so myself). I am very shy at first and will try to hide, but once I'm allowed to explore a little and get to know you, I become very loving and even a little playful. I came to the shelter as a stray and really need to find my furever home. I truly would make a great companion. Please come see me!
My name is Tink, and I am very friendly and calm. I may look quite large because of my long hair, but I weigh just over 8 pounds. I came to the shelter because I was abandoned, and even though the humans there take very good care of me, I really need a place of my own to call home. Hope to see you soon!
Lake Humane Society is located at 7564-E Tyler Blvd., Mentor. For adoption information call (440) 951.6122 or email:info@lakehumane.org. All of the cats and kittens are spayed/neutered prior to being placed for adoption. They also receive a physical examination from a veterinarian. All the cats receive age-appropriate vaccinations and they are treated for fleas, and are tested for feline leukemia and receive an FIV Combo test. All cats and dogs adopted from Lake Humane facility are microchipped. All of the above are included in the adoption fee of the animal. For more information, please call (440) 951-6122 or visit www.lakehumane.org.
Keep dogs safe during July 4th fireworks These coming weeks will be busy ones for the dog shelter. The days before and following the 4th of July are filled with loose dogs that have run away after hearing loud fireworks. Hopefully they wear licenses and can be returned to their owners. Those not claimed will be up for adoption. During this upcoming holiday, keep pets safe and preferably inside while the skies light up with bright sparkles and big bangs. The Lake County Dog Shelter is located on Route 20 near the Painesville/ Perry border. The shelter’s phone number is (440) 3502640. Each dog costs $95, and that price includes a validated license, microchip, vet check and immunizations. Additional dogs can be seen at www.petango.com using the zip code 44077.
Slick is an older, neutered male, min pin/chihuahua/ beagle mix. Slick's owner had to give him up due to health problems. Slick is just forlorn. He'd be happiest in an understanding home willing to give him some time to adjust.
Rose is a young, 38-pound, hound/pointer mix. Rose has been waiting at the shelter for quite some time. She has lots of puppy energy and could make a nice hunting dog given the proper training.
Additional dogs can be seen at www.petango.com using the zip code 44077.

Hooping it up with Lifeline BY MARK GIFFORD Gazette Newspapers MENTOR - March has become the month of mania for so many and one of the maniest events that has taken place for many years is the annual March Mania 2014, Come Hoop It Up With Us for the benefit of local nonprofit organization Lifeline, Inc. It’s a fun yet relaxed event that pits individuals against other individuals in a battle of hard-fought skill and endurance. Long hours … ok maybe an hour … or 15 minutes … if at all … practicing takes place by those who step up to take on the grueling challenge in the sport of mini basketball! This year was no exception for excitement as the bracket of 64 spots filled up the board at the sixth annual event. While the anticipation was building there were other competitions for prizes taking place. A Slam Dunk Cornhole Competition was set up for $1 per toss paying winners one raffle ticket for landing on the board or three tickets for getting the bag in the hole. One lucky winner took home $100. A silent auction was also part of the mania with themed baskets and electronic items. A 50/50 raffle also ran throughout the event. The Ultimate March Mania Raffle awarded three winners cash prizes of $500, $200 and $100. A thank you from Lifeline goes out to the volunteers of the Eastlake Women’s Club who have been helping every year of this event for their time taking care of the raffles. Also, to Ryan Gilkerson who was the emcee for the evening. A five-time Ohio Hip Hop Awards nominee in the Best Concert Host category, Ryan participated because, “I believe in the people who run the organization and like the concept of what they do. I love the event because it’s so laid back. It’s not a stuffy, black tie affair. It’s like going to Dave and Busters, only the community benefits from your fun evening. The great thing about getting money into this organization is that it is empowerment based. The more money brought in, the more money generated for the local economy due to the job placement and training programs.” Then with all the athletes … ok players, signed up, the mini basketball competition began. Yelling and screaming for guests’ favorite player was all that could be heared as one by one winners and losers came away from their round with a smile. After the first two rounds the Final Four from each conference hit the locker rooms to get psyched for the second half. “I have been a member of the board for about seven years,” said newly elected Board President Michelle Herron. “I come from a public assistance administration background and find that my work experience and the Lifeline Agency is a good fit. “The annual March Mania event is always fun.

It is a chance to invite friends and family to support Lifeline in an atmosphere that is entertaining. I feel that attendees of the event got to hear or read about the progress and accomplishments of the organization over the last year. It is a great way to share this information in a fun environment,” she said. As rounds three and four continued some players were being crushed by the pressure of the event. After the smoke settled there were only two contestants left. “My main role is to recruit people for the basketball competition.,” said board member and former board president Jeremy Iosue, Esq. “The best part is recruiting someone that doesn't want to do it, and then seeing how much fun they have when they finally do participate. And often shoot baskets better than they thought they could.” As Adam Booher and Eric Christman stepped up to their respective mini basketball cages the crowd started screaming for their choice, although some seemed to be just screaming for both.

After the dust settled Booher showed everyone that he was not to be denied. “I thought it was a great event - a really enthusiastic crowd, as it always is,” said Lifeline Executive Director Carrie Dotson. “The auction was amazing, as it always is and there’s always so much energy in the room at March Mania. It’s hard to believe this was already our 6th year.” “We were really grateful for the support of our sponsors, donors and to everyone who attended - it helped us raise over $10,000 for Life-

Village hopes study will help find leaks to plug BY MARIAN MCMAHON Gazette Newspapers MADISON VILLAGE – The administration has found the Village was being charged for more water by Lake County than what it was billing its residents. To work toward resolving that issue, Council suspended the third reading and passed a resolution at its June 16 meeting authorizing the mayor to execute a contract with Aqua-Line, Inc. for a water leak detection survey and declaring an emergency. “We’ve taken a cursory look at our billing versus what we’re paying the county and there’s definitely a discrepancy there, and I think it’s a very urgent matter that we find out, with some confidence, that our system is not losing water to the ground,” said administrator Dwayne Bailey. He said he requested three proposals for the service and only received one. Bailey said they listen to hydrants and valves for leaking sounds and then locate the areas where the leaks are. “This $3,000 will pay for itself in short order with the fixing of one or two leaks,” Bailey said. In other business: • Richard Fike, owner of Madison Combined Martial
Arts Association, and his daughter Sara Lashley, addressed council on the second annual Main Street Run, a 5k run/1 mile walk, set for Saturday, Aug. 2. “The 5K run was a success last year; we raised $4,000,” Fike said. “Ninety-eight percent of the money stayed right here in Madison; 2.5 percent went out between Geneva, Ashtabula and Perry. “We adopted over 10 families last year at Christmas; we had 15 seniors we adopted for Christmas; we had numerous emergencies—houses burning down in the village—that we gave $500 blocks to.” The event is a nonprofit 501(C)3. The website is www.mainstreetrun.com. He said the event should be cleared by 11 a.m. Fike said he has spoken with the businesses, especially the new ones, and they are supportive. • There was discussion about providing department heads with budget history so they would be more aware of their spending, as well as providing further information to them. Councilman John Hamercheck said the advisory committees also were not getting all the fiscal information they should have. “The information is there; it’s not being withheld from anybody; it’s just not in a usable form right now, so ev-
erything is reinventing the wheel,” Bailey said, adding finding a feasible reporting format is a goal they have. • A Square’s Acre resident said he needs to sell his home but could not because the Village is not fulfilling its responsibilities for taking care of the roads and drainage problems. He was told they did care about his problems and advised what steps the Village was taking to try to fix the various drainage problems and infiltration and inflow issues. He was also told money was an issue. • Police Chief Dawn Shannon said she and Mayor Britton attended a meeting at the Lake County Emergency Operations Center. They are working on getting the Village divided into zones, so if a reverse-911 call is needed to warn residents of flooding or other issues, only the affected areas are called. The zones would also allow the EOC to get the calls out sooner. The chief said the reason some people had trouble understanding the message was because they had phone lines which were under water which caused static. • Bailey said the new website is set to be operational July 7. He said the last detailed stormwater study was on the current website, although it was a little hard to find. The
Summer fun at Rabbit Run There is still time for youth to register for several summer fine arts camps at Rabbit Run. Youth Art Camp is for anyone who likes to be creative and maybe make a mess in the process. For one or two weeks, campers ages 8 to 16 get elbow deep in paint, clay and other mediums as they create original two- and three-dimensional works of art. The camp meets Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to noon in the pavilion in the Madison Village square. Campers ages 11 – 16 may attend June 23 through June 27, and campers ages 7 through 10 may attend one or two weeks of Art Camp, July 7 through July 11 and/ or July 14 through July 18. Pop Star Camp gets youth ages 5 through 10 up and moving as they learn to sing and dance like their favorite pop star. This oneweek day camp is from July 21 through July 25 from 9:30 a.m. to noon.
Campers delve into all areas of the theater arts including drama, music, dance, costumes, make-up, and stage craft in Youth Theater Camp, a seven-week camp held at Rabbit Run Theater and neighboring Stanton Park. Combining the best of both worlds, campers have access to the professionalquality stage with state-ofthe-art theatrical equipment at Rabbit Run, as well as access to the fresh air and beauty of Stanton Park where many traditional camp activities take place. Campers also participate in arts and crafts and ageappropriate games including water games. The last week of camp, campers have the opportunity to perform or work backstage in a full-scale production at Rabbit Run Theater. Youth Camp, ages 8 to 15, meets Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., beginning June 23 through Aug. 9.

village will continue to work on the stormwater issues, of which some resolutions have been delayed for financial reasons, but they are a priority. He said one idea which came up was trying to hold some storm water upstream and to that end he has spoken to some landowners with larger properties about the possibility of creating some detention areas in a public/ private venture. The restoration of the stream in Fairview Cemetery has received EPA funding. It will involve a bit of a flood plain which could help downstream. • An ordinance authorizing the sale of two copiers no longer needed was removed from the table for discussion. Law Director Joe Szeman said the copiers were being put back into service at the village, so they were needed. Council voted down the ordinance to clear it from the agenda. • Two ordinances remained tabled: accepting the bid of Trax Construction for waterline installation for the State Route 528 Southerly Water Line Construction Project; and amending the codified ordinances related to the location of sexually oriented businesses. • Second reading was held on an ordinance providing for additional appropriations and adjustments to
various line items for 2014 and declaring an emergency. • Council suspended the third reading and passed an ordinance authorizing all actions necessary to effect an opt-out natural gas aggregation program pursuant to Section 4929.26 of the Ohio Revised Code, directing the county board of elections to submit a ballot question to the electors and declaring an emergency. • Council suspended the third reading and passed a resolution approving and adopting the tax budget of Madison Village for the fiscal year commencing Jan. 1,
2015 and submitting the same to the county auditor and declaring an emergency. • Council suspended the readings and passed an ordinance authorizing the mayor and acting fiscal officer to enter into a contract with the Conneaut Telephone Company (Suite 224) for computer and IT services. • Council approved a purchase order for $3,139 to Aeromix for a new mixer shaft for sludge lagoon at sewer plant. • The next regular meeting of council will be at 7:30 p.m. Monday, July 7.

Lake ADAMHS Board begins with new officers, new budget, annual awards PAINESVILLE - The Lake County Alcohol, Drug Addiction and Mental Health Services (ADAMHS) Board officially transitioned to a new fiscal year June 16 during its annual meeting and dinner event held at Quail Hollow. Nearly 200 people attended. Established by Ohio Statute, the ADAMHS Board is responsible for planning, funding, monitoring and evaluating Lake County’s community-based mental health and addiction recovery services. Those services are delivered through a network of agencies. Board members - all Lake County residents who serve without compensation - include medical professionals, mental health and recovery experts, consumers (people who need and use services), relatives of consumers, community leaders and business professionals. The board approved $10.57 million in ongoing non-Medicaid funding for its
2015 fiscal year. Those funds will provide services for local individuals and families who are dealing with mental illness or addiction issues. During the meeting the ADAMHS Board elected new officers for its new fiscal year. The slate includes Jim Garrett, chair; Tricia Hart, vice chair; Joanne Zeroske, treasurer; Roberta Kalb, secretary; and Dr. Gail Fedak, past chair. Other fiscal year 2015 board members include Dione DeMitro, Troy Hager, Douglas Klier, Frank Sarosy, and Karen Tarase. Two new providers, WomenSafe and Cleveland Rape Crisis Center, were added to the Lake County ADAMHS roster for fiscal year 2015. Following the formal board meeting, board members, staff and guests shared dinner and a program that included awards presentations. ADAMHS Board Executive Director Kim Fraser used her time at the podium to
Mardi Gras Committee seeks basket donations FAIRPORT HARBOR – The Mardi Gras Veterans Day Committee is seeking donations for baskets to be raffled off for the different branches of the military service. They will accept donations of items like gas or restaurant gift cards or gift certificates; items that mostly men could use. To donate, contact Sharon Lowthian at (440) 463-6903.
underscore the importance of wrapping an inclusive array of services around a person, and not to simply focus on treating the symptoms of his or her illness. “Our system provides psychiatry, medication, counseling, case management and intensive outpatient services for clients, but our obligation doesn’t stop there,” she said. “Things like housing, nutrition, transportation, social interaction and physical health matter as well. Counseling and meds don’t have much chance of being effective if the person doesn’t have a safe, decent place to sleep, or goes weeks at a time without having a conversation with someone else.” Retiring ADAMHS Board members Dave Enzerra, Don Filipski and Beth Gurley were honored. Enzerra joined the ADAMHS Board in 2005, and has served as chair and vice chair. He also chaired the board’s Long-Range Planning and Marketing committees, and served on the Executive/Personnel committee. Filipski also joined the ADAMHS Board in 2005. He has served as chair, vice chair, secretary and trea-
surer as a member of the board’s Executive/Personnel committee. He also chaired the Alcohol/Drug Addiction, Evaluation/Quality Improvement, Grievance, LongRange Planning, and Allocation committees. Gurley joined the ADAMHS Board in 2006. She chaired the board the past two fiscal years, and has served on the Executive/Personnel committee as secretary, treasurer and vice chair. She has also headed the Allocation and Evaluation/ Quality Improvement committees. The ADAMHS Board bestowed its three annual system-wide awards at the event. Peggy Kiikka was given the 2014 ADAMHS Consumer Achievement Award. This award recognizes a consumer who has been especially successful in working toward and achieving important goals. The Unsung Hero Award salutes a staff member at one of the ADAMHS funded service providers. This year’s award went to Melissa Heidemann, a school-based services team member at Crossroads. The 2014 ADAMHS Advocate Award was given to Mike Crislip, the long-time

Crossroads Board chair who helped engineer the partnership between that agency and New Directions. Crislip donated services that helped facilitate a number of important projects in the ADAMHS system, including Crossroads’ Early Childhood Center, and the new Extended Housing and Bridges
facilities. Award winners and retiring board members were presented framed pieces of art from the system’s annual Expressions of Recovery consumer art show. More information about ADAMHS and its network of providers is available at www.HelpThat Works.us.

Mentor, Kirtland schools receive Straight A Fund grant MENTOR - Mentor Public Schools, in partnership with Kirtland Local Schools, has been awarded a $13.8 Million Straight A Fund grant titled High School Blended and Online Pathways to Success. Mentor partnered with Kirtland to apply for the grant as a consortium based on aligning visions of bringing innovative instructional practices to the classroom. “In today’s world where information is available anytime, anywhere and right at our fingertips, we realize a major shift in how we teach has become necessary in order to meet the needs of all of our learners,” said Mentor Schools Superintendent Matthew Miller. “We’ve been working hard to make this change in Mentor Schools, and while it can’t happen overnight, this grant affords us the opportunity to move
toward making our goals a reality sooner.” “Mentor has been a leader in infusing technology into the classroom for past couple of years - what school district wouldn't want to take advantage of their innovative thinking?” said Kirtland Schools Superintendent Steve Barrett. “Mentor has a great deal of knowledge and a willingness to share. In schools, we often duplicate effort. This is a real chance to leverage our resources and share them. We know there's a lot of work ahead, but we couldn't be more excited.” In Mentor Schools, the change in instruction has begun through a blended learning program implemented at the middle school level. Specifically, at Ridge Middle School where in phase one of the blended learning rollout, 160 seventh
grade students participated in a 1:1 take-home learning environment, meaning one device for every student. The 1:1 environment allows teachers to provide individualized and targeted instruction through small groups, while other groups of students are engaged in digital curriculum. They found students working in this educational setting also remained engaged and worked on school content after school hoursb - on nights and weekends. High School Blended and Online Pathways to Success outlines detailed plans to expand the 1:1 concept throughout the high school. Beginning in the 2015-2016 school year, Mentor High School students will have more classroom choices than ever before, including a blended learning track, an increased offering of online
Seminar shows how to take integrated approach to fundraising KIRTLAND - The Lakeland Community College Nonprofit and Public Service Center will host “Greater Than the Sum of the Parts: Integrating Your Organization's Fundraising Strategies” Thursday, July 22 from 8:30 - 10:30 a.m. at Lakeland's Holden University Center, which is located across from the entrance to the main campus on Route 306. The $45 fee includes materials and a continental breakfast. To register, visit lakelandcc.edu/cl, or call (440) 525-7116 and mention registration number 15UNPC131.01. In a time of continuing economic challenges, hav-
ing a strong and diverse array of revenue sources is more important than ever. This unique presentation highlights the importance of taking a comprehensive, organization-wide approach to the coordination of all fundraising efforts. The session will feature Beth Darmstadter, chief development officer, The Gathering Place; Marie Monago, vice president of development, Cleveland Botanical Garden; and Deborah Osgood, vice president of development and marketing, Achievement Centers for Children. These presenters will help both nonprofit board and staff members understand what it means to take
an integrated approach to fundraising, why it matters, and how to do it. Participants will learn how to: • Create a comprehensive plan for simultaneously pursuing a variety of revenue streams, using multiple channels and techniques • Develop integrated fundraising strategies in order to execute the plan • Implement and benchmark development efforts • Deploy the talents of board, staff, and volunteers to maximum advantage

One large construction project that will be funded by the grant at Mentor High School will transform the current library space into an up-to-date media center for students and community use. “We’re excited to revamp the Mentor High School media center into a space our students want to be and a space that is conducive to student collaboration so they can work on projects or their studies together,” Miller said. “Also, as we have a community that is extremely supportive of our school district, we will be pleased to eventually open the im-

In the latest update to the Five Year Forecast, Chief Financial Officer of Mentor Schools, Daniel L. Wilson projected a deficit of $13.2 million by the end of the 2016-2017 school year. The grant funding of the MHS Media Center project, along with planned staff reductions, will help contribute to the Board of Education’s goal to balance the budget through 20162017. Achieving this goal would mean the emergency levy passed in 2004 will be extended to cover 13 years of budgets, instead of four as originally expected.

The most important factor in operating a successful blended learning environment is having a well-trained faculty to implement engaging lessons in the classroom.

Sports Economods race in special event this Friday at Raceway 7 CONNEAUT - Raceway 7’s newest division, the Zimmer Service Center Economods, first run in 2011, will be in the spotlight this coming Friday, June 27, when the growing class will race for a $500 winner’s purse. Steve Burns, with two wins this season, leads the points chase by 34-points over Josh Mueller, who won his first-ever feature on June 13 and has had several top finishes. Josh Ferry, who won his first ever feature on May 23rd, then backed it up with another win the following week, currently rides third in the standings, a scant six markers back of Mueller. Last week saw Rick Prosser, a standout Street Stock and EMod pilot from the 1990s, win his first since 1997. Prosser just returned to Raceway 7 at the end of May and has become a threat to win every week. In Evergreen Lake Park Campground Crate Late Models action Chad Wright, a winner twice this season, including last week, leads the standings in his effort to repeat his first-ever championship. Wright holds a 24 point edge over Matt Latta, who collected his first Raceway 7 feature win June 6. Another 22 points back is Darrell Bossard, a winner on May 30 for the first time in Evergreen Lake Park Campground Crate Late Models competition. On the strength of two feature wins Gary Eicher leads the Bonnell Collision Center E-Mods point standings over Dan McDonald by a comfortable 69-point margin. McDonald has not won a feature event since taking over track operations at the start of the 2010 season. Another four points back of McDonald is defending champion Joel Watson. The Campbell’s Mini-Storage Street Stocks points Chase is currently very close with defending champion Chris Withers holding a seven point lead over Jimmy Kennerknecht. Former champion Ed Bolyard, a winner twice this summer, is only another four points behind Kennerknecht. Dale Fraschetti, a first time winner this year, leads the Specialty Products Mini Stocks championship Chase by only four points over 2012 champion Bud Sergeff. Third place is a tie between Carlos Aponte and defending champion Brad Cole, both with wins this summer. Jason Easler, tied for the lead only a week ago, fell all the way to fifth in the standings but is only eighteen points out of the lead in this closest of races.

Lake County Captains to host Mark Emmert Fan Appreciation Night on July 2 EASTLAKE - The Lake County Captains Professional Baseball Club, proud members of Minor League Baseball and Class A affiliate of the Cleveland Indians, will be hosting Mark Emmert Fan Appreciation Night on Wednesday, July 2. The event will honor the great fans of Northeast Ohio in a way that only Emmert would find to be acceptable. All fans who attend the game and do nothing but stay until the third inning will receive credit towards a future Captains game of their choice. In addition to this great benefit of just showing up, given the recent ruling in college athletics that will allow student athletes the opportunity to enjoy consuming food as they need it, four lucky
college students will win an All-You-Can-Eat wristband and tickets to a future Captains game. During the game, fans will be permitted to move from their seat location designated by their ticket, subject to a one inning waiting period, if they desire a different view. Prizes will be handed out during the game, including “one and done” player basketball cards while others in attendance will receive copies of college football and basketball video games. Copies of the publication “Undue Process – The NCAA’s Injustice For All” will also be distributed to select attendees. Lucky participants who take part in the Captains ingame promotions will not be
rewarded for their efforts, rather, they will have the satisfaction of just having the opportunity to participate. At the end of the game, a promotional participant will be crowned that evening’s BCS (Big Captains Superstar) Champion via a subjective vote taken by members of the media and a computerized scoring algorithm. Fans who wear their “generic” college jersey that may or may not correspond to a famous athlete who may attend the same college may be awarded by a visit from a Captains Booster who greets them with a $100 handshake. The Captains considered offering complimentary tickets to any local student-ath-
lete for the July 2 Mark Emmert Fan Appreciation Night, however, due to regulations related to their amateur status, all local college students who show their college ID at the Classic Park Box Office will instead receive a $2 discount. Finally, given that he has never attended a Minor League Baseball game, the Captains would like to extend an invitation to Mark Emmert to this evening in his honor. While at his first Minor League Baseball Game, he will have the opportunity to greet some of our hundreds of thousands fans who annually enjoy Classic Park, and he can participate in the Classic Chevy T-Shirt Toss, or Dizzy Bat Race during the game.

Saint John School had applied to re-join the OHSAA in May, after fulfilling the requirements of a probationary year in 20132014. The decision to re-join
the association was based on Saint John’s growing enrollment and the belief that membership in the organization best serves the needs of Saint John student athletes. The mission of the OHSAA of promoting the values of participation in interscholastic athletics as an integral part of a student’s educational experience while promoting academics, the safety
of participants, good citizenship and lifelong values as the foundation of interscholastic athletics mirrors the goals of the Herald athletic program. . Nick Iarocci, athletic director of Saint John, spearheaded the application process. “I believe students at Saint John will benefit from the decision to re-enter the OHSAA.
It will provide for a broader spectrum of opportunities and the ability to participate in the various OHSAA tournaments will allow our students to enjoy more competitive opportunities. Saint John has a history of success at the tournament level in a variety of sports and we look forward to once again bringing tournament trophies back to the school,” Iarocci said.

Lake County Sheriff’s Report for May LAKE COUNTY - The Lake County Sheriff's Office provides regular patrols to the unincorporated areas of Lake County. As part of their crime prevention efforts deputies watch for open doors, lights on inside vehicles during nighttime hours and other potential problems, visit with residents and visit construction sites and with contractors. The LCSO asks residents and businesses to promptly report false alarms so deputies are not dispatched needlessly. Each false alarm takes at least 15 or 20 minutes of a deputy’s time which could be better spent patrolling. The following calls were recorded for May: Concord Township • Total Calls for the month: 1,505 • Accidents: Injury Accidents: 7 • Property Damage Accidents: 13 • Arrests: Male arrest for Disorderly Conduct on Auburn Rd.
