From the 4/18/07 Dispatch: Some question bank's role in county project Wednesday, April 18, 2007 3:41 AM By Barbara Carmen THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH Franklin County has yet to dig a hole for its new courthouse, but foreclosure is already a concern. Union and community leaders asked commissioners yesterday to use their weight to force JPMorgan Chase, chosen last month to help the county borrow money for its new Hall of Justice, to change its practices. Otherwise, the leaders said, taxpayers will be doing business with one of the region's foreclosure kings. "We hear you, and we are going to take a look at this," Commissioner Marilyn Brown responded. Commissioners agreed to invite Chase officials in to present their side. But the county deal is struck.

  11. From the 4/18/07 Pickerington Times-Sun: Charter amendment backers, opponents debate its merits By DAVID S. OWEN With less than a month to go before the May 8 primary election where a proposed amendment to the city's charter will be before voters, a debate is brewing between supporters and opponents as to whether it is necessary. The amendment to the city's charter is the result of a citizens' initiative petition that was circulated in February and prompted by a proposed economic agreement between the city and Violet Township. The amendment would preserve the city's right to perform annexations in the future regardless of any economic agreements it enters with any municipality, backers said. It also preserves the right of the city to conform its boundaries in the future, if it chooses, regardless of any economic involvement it may have with other municipalities. The proposed economic agreement has not been approved by all parties involved and city and township officials say they now believe it will never be approved or enacted.

  12. From Big Walnut News, 4/18/07: Campaign reports 'ecstatic' response Fund raising for an outdoor pool at the proposed Sunbury- area recreation center has gotten a jump-start. By JENNIFER NOBLIT Some Sunbury-area residents have questioned the feasibility study that led to a 1.2-mill bond issue on the May ballot, but members of the campaign to build a local recreation center said response from the community has been overwhelmingly positive. Voters will be asked to approve a 27-year, 1.2-mill bond issue at the polls May 8 that will finance the construction of a 50,000-square-foot community center. While current plans are to have the YMCA furnish, run and maintain the facilities, some residents of the Eastern Delaware County Joint Recreation District -- which shares its borders with the Big Walnut Local School District -- have questioned the number of people surveyed in the YMCA-conducted feasibility study that led to the plans.

  13. From the 4/18/07 Dispatch: RE-EVALUATION OF SCHOOL CHOICE Vouchers, charters facing the fire Wednesday, April 18, 2007 3:37 AM By Catherine Candisky THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH About 10 years after the launch of the school-choice movement in Ohio, almost 80,000 students are attending charter schools or receiving vouchers for private-school tuition. But now those schools are facing the most serious questions since their creation. Gov. Ted Strickland wants a moratorium on new charter schools and abolishment of a statewide voucher program created last year. An older Cleveland voucher program would remain intact. Lawmakers created a pilot voucher program in Cleveland in 1995 and began the charter-school program in 1997, both to give low-income students an escape from poorly performing schools. Now, with nearly 9,000 students receiving vouchers and 70,000 attending charter schools, the programs are at a crossroads: Have they helped Ohio's education system or hurt it?

In a letter to Marva Collins principal, Cleaster Mims, the state Education Department said it intended to remove the pre-kindergarten to 6th grade school from the list of schools eligible to accept vouchers. According to the letter, the school was unable to prove that three of its teachers are certified to teach, and could not document mandatory background checks for three others. Furthermore, the letter said, the school had the same teacher teaching math and science in multiple grades simultaneously. The state’s decision would be a serious blow to the school, Mims said. Almost half of its student body – 53 of its 110 students – pays the $4,200 annual tuition with vouchers. MORE: http://news.enquirer.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/AB/20070418/NEWS01/304180037/

  18. New business park in the works Marietta Times, 4/18/07 A new Washington County business park should be ready for occupancy by the end of this year, thanks to a $500,000 award in state industrial development funds to the Southeastern Ohio Port Authority. “This addresses one of the main problems facing economic development in Washington County, a lack of ‘shovel-ready’ sites for new businesses,” said Mike Jacoby, executive director of the authority. He said $300,000 of the money comes from Ohio’s Industrial Site Improvement Fund, and the remaining $200,000 is out of the state Roadwork Development account. The $300,000, announced by Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher on Monday, will be used to extend infrastructure and install an access road to a 27-acre tract of land along Ohio 7 North for development of a county business park.

  20. From the 4/17/07 Tri-County Press: Wyoming residents speak up about group home BY ANDREA REEVES | COMMUNITY PRESS STAFF WRITER WYOMING - Council chambers overflowed with residents, some of whom sat on the floor in the hallway, who came to hear more about a proposed group home and to voice their opinions on the matter at a public hearing April 17. GraceWorks Lutheran Services is proposing the relocation of 10 group home residents from a home in Avondale to a newly constructed 4,852-square-foot home at 1227 and 1229 Springfield Pike, near Chestnut Avenue. About the proposal GraceWorks Lutheran Services is asking Wyoming City Council to grant it a special use permit to allow 10 group home residents to relocate to a proposed newly constructed group home on Springfield Pike. City code written in 1983 allows group homes to have no more than six residents. GraceWorks officials want to move the home from an unsafe community, and they want to keep the residents together. Judy Stang of GraceWorks said during the last five years the Avondale home has experienced shootings in the front yard, robbery of a pharmacy delivery driver, and several car break-ins. Council plans to vote on the development plan and the special use permit at its May 21 meeting.

TMC plans athletic upgrades Cincinnati Enquirer, 4/14/07 Thomas More College is embarking on a fundraising campaign so that it can switch to a synthetic turf football field and make other improvements to its athletic complex. School representatives plan to meet soon with neighboring residents and other interested parties to explain the plan and answer questions about the project, Gerald Dusing, chairman of the school's board of trustees told Crestview Hills City Council Thursday. He offered no cost estimate, but three years ago, school officials estimated it would cost about $1 million for the artificial turf. "We're anxious to get started on this," Dusing said. "We hope to have the artificial turf finished by at least mid-season next year, if not the beginning of the season." The school plans to do some grading to lower the current football field about four feet and widen it to accommodate an eight-lane regulation artificial-surface track, Dusing said. He said additional plantings will provide a screen between the football field and residents on Trevino Ridge. A second phase calls for replacing the portable aluminum stands with larger bleachers that are encased. Skate park ready to roll Delhi Press, 4/14/07 After months of weather-related delays, the Delhi Skate Plaza will open Saturday, April 21.

Sandy Monahan, township parks and recreation director, said it features many of the elements teens said they wanted, such as simulated curbs and ramps. Designed for skateboards and skates, the new park addition was paid for, in part, with a state grant. On hand for the 4 p.m. grand opening ceremony will be three professional skaterboarders Ryan Gallant, Gary Collins and Kokomo Joe. They will start their demonstration at 4:20 p.m. There will be free skateboard lessons at 6 p.m. Church's new look Kentucky Post, 4/14/07 Covington's First Christian Church may not have the congregation it once had, but the building itself sure looks great. The church recently spent $170,000 to add new mortar to the bricks, clean the exterior walls and repaint and recarpet the sanctuary. "There's a night and day difference in the exterior of the building," the Rev. Patricia Hatfield said. "There was maybe 100 years of grime on that building." The congregation had to act, because pieces of concrete trim were starting to fall and hit the sidewalk below. "We had to move fast, so we would not get hit with the liability," Hatfield said. "We had no idea how we were going to pay for this." Firms contend for Loveland Y Loveland Herald, 4/13/07 Jon Bennett is hoping to take charge of developing the Loveland YMCA.
