H " ^ T 20 feet pushing their height to nearly 100 feet. The last time the company raised their stacks to 77 feet some felt the problem would go away - or at least ftimm'"*y Unfortunately, neither happened according to area residents (Sea rotated story). Tim Fiuco factor. Had a number of comments from Sheffield Lake residents regarding candidate Mike Fusco'a refusal to take down his campaign signs. Sheffield Lake iign laws prevent early signs and Fusco feels it's unconstitutional. Some residents hove a problem with his approach - they fee! he should set an example and go through the apV-Tsl process rather than defy the law. They have a point here. If Mike Fusco should be elected hell have a tough time running Mayor's Court with his current approach. Tha continued saga surrounding what's new or what's not with the Aqua Marine/Heaven on Earth resort continues. Avon Lake Mayor Vince Urbin has had aboul enough of the whole situation. Urbin related to an encounter he had wi*H a Mr. Buddha, who. according to Uriitn. would guarantee a crime rale of zero in Avon Lake if he signed up the Avon Lake Police Deportment for their transcendental meditation. : Urbin's frustration comes out of the 1 many managers and their unsuccessful approach to bringing up the facility to current fire codes along with some of the- many unorthodox ideas coming from the resort.

Heard that," was the attitude of residents who Listened to a defense of Xerxes Corp. by its Vice President and General Counsel, Craig Peterson, at a Zoning Board of Appeals meeting last week. Xerxes requested permission to raise smokestacks snathe; 20 feet, to 97 feet high, at the plant on Mills Road. This would disperse stytene fumes and odors over a wider area. ZBA Chairman Cyrus Bliss tabled the motion at the end of the meeting, stating the ZBA needs mure information from Ohio EPA before an informed decision can be reached. The company produces fiberglau underground storage Unks. Styrene, a chemical with a foul odor so strong it can be identified at one part per million, is sprayed on the tanks during the Manufacturing process. After listening to Xerxes' solution to its odor problem - raising smokestacks 20 morn feet - residents were mostly disappointed with a proposal they considered rather lame. After hearing tha same complaints as in the past, plus some new ones- an Avon councilman who lives ou Jtycox Road near the plant, spoke up. **I hate to be the one to say this," Ted Graczyk said, "but if they can't bring the odors under control, maybe it's time for this company to walk away." "Why would you want to throw good money after bad?" another Jaycox homeowner, Steve Okamoto wondered. Continued on page 9 Sherroci Brown and House Minority Leader Richard Gephardt visited Tenneysoc. Elementary School in Sheffield Lake last week to protest the House Republicans proposal to eliminate the federal school lunch program. (Photo courtesy of The Chronicle Telegram) Century proposes restructuring of CCS By Marcella Grande AVON LAKE - The person who anid the wheels of government turn slav/ly terribly underestimated, considering I he snail's pace of the effort to acquire tcllfree calling into western Cuyahoga County. A decision by the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio regarding tollfree call* Ing was supposed to be rendered in September of 1994. but six months later, a now snafu to stalling progress. Last Friday. March 24. Century Telephone of Ohio filed an alternative proposal with the PUCO. Century is offering a reduced cost for the Community Calling Service {CCS) plan. Currently, residents on the CCS plan pay S9.25 for two hours of long- distance calling, plus $1.25 for each 15-minute block of time exceeding the two hours. Businesses are charged 312.50 for the same service. . Cantury's revised CCS structure calls for reducing the two hours to one hour at a cost of $4 for residents and $6 for businesses. For each six- minute block of timfl exceeding the one hour.

The name change wus decided by u 3-2 vote at last week's school beard meeting. "Since we have the Irish Heritage Club, our nrea is fast becoming the Irish hub of the Greater Cleveland and Lorain communities," said board momber Terry Ryan. Fellow Irishman and board member Mike Kearns agreed. "With all the newcomers, we've bean losing our cultural identity and a little of our heritage," Kearns said. "The Shamrocks present an easily identifiable name among our conference teams." Board President Frank Bolognia campaigned against the idea. Oolognia said changing the school colors from maroon and gold to green and white to accompany the new name is too drastic of a change. "Besides." Bolognia said, "If any of our concerns involve th« color green, we should bu worrying about where oil the greenbacks are going to corn« from to run this school system." Board member Dav« Updegraff interjected. "Aw. don't mind Frank. It's the banker in him talking. "Change is good." Updegraff added. "We're also considering a motion to havo the school principals announce over the P.A. systems every morning: Top o* the motnin* to ya." and to offer students Lucky Charms cereal for breakfast. Kearns said the green and white color change would bu an excellent advantage for graduates who will bo going to Ohio University, because OU's colors are also green and whits.

The raccoon. • however, was nowhere to be found when the warden showed up. This puzzled us at the time. Where did ; the CTT"^ go? Did he disappear into thin air? Wes he hiding under a bed upstairs? la the clothes hamper in the rethrown? This week's police blotter may contain. the answer. ' On May 19. according to tne blotter. : an Electric Boulevard man asked toe-, anim^t warden for b^lp in trapping a raccoon which was living in his : chimney. If this is the same Electric Boulevard,man complaining about the iame raccoon, then we know what happenedbefore the animal warden showed up. the first time. The cooo simply skittered up the chimney to his comfy, if sooty, abode. Good tuck to the little feller. Here"* hnprp^ thefltitmalwarden was able to' trap him and release him to a greener and safer place. .

Avon Council cheered by flood control solution By Karen Drasler benefit the entire city, not just one part of it. He also referred to funds available from the Ohio Department of Natural Resources if Avon. North Ridgeville. Sheffield and Westlake Join together in a regional project. "John's (Smitek)right-We can'l get rid of ;r*ter fast enough. And the worst place holding it back is at SR 83," Councilman Ted Craczyk said. Following the meeting. Craczyk said that in addition to stone blocking the water at SR 83, just to the cast there is a sharp bend in the creek which cuts down the flow. He said straightening the waterway would help a lot, "1 know just cleaning out the creek helped the flooding a lot. We've gone Irom a flood every four months to none in three years," Craczyk added. Krystowski concluded, "If we're thinking of $800,000 for one retention—we should do this instead.*' The idea will be discussed at a Sewers and Drains committee meeting April 8. AVON - Council members are enthusiastic about a plan to control flood water ul a reasonable cost by improving the Cow of French Creek, particularly east of SR 83 and at Avon Isle. Council learned last week that just one tO-acre retention lake, at SummerhiU Sul-division* would cost about $600,000. The city's retention fund which it collects from developers only has $250,000. Former Service Director fohn Smitak. told Council last Monday it would be better to improve the waterways to carry Qood water out of the city tritttefid of retailing it. At Council this week. Smttek expanded on the idea. "There's really two places where the flow of French Creek is blocked. There's Tock at SR 83. and it backs up at Avon Isle. . "You could rent equipment and clean French Creak out It would be better than all these retention basins." Smitek advised. Council President Ed Krystowski said $800,000 would go « long way toward cleaning French Creek, and that would In other business • Council approved eight ordinances. demands required, as well as toe comgranting three- percent pay increases to pensation set for similar positions in • non-union city employees.

From beginning to end, the board agrees the project ihould take about two years to complete if the levy passes. The board also discussed the proposed voucher bill that b undergoing hearings by the Ohio House Finance Committee and its subcommittees, as part of the governor's executive budget proposaL The voucher bill would allow students in * public school district to receive a voucher for the partial cost to attend a privatB school. This money would come out of funding allocated to the public school district - something that can prove very destructive to public schools. The voucher pilot program calls for the age of admission to start at K-3 and continue through the eighth grade. Under Covernor George Volnovichs proposal, the approval and supervision of the pilot programs would bo placed in the care of a five-member commission he would appoint. Another duty that would be taken away from the state board would be the establishmeu! of the professional stan" dards board, which . would have the cuthority over' the certification of teachers and administrators. The certifications would be replaced by "licensing" and would be under the authority of a separate board appointed by the governor. The school board also discussed the •phantom revenue" and Its depleting effects on school financing. Superintendent fohn Blanch! explained the phantom revenue concept. "Everyone has to be taxed, and a school district is not allowed to go below 20 milJj. Once the state figures out how much money it Is going to give each. school district, the ttata charges off 20 mills from the moaey it is giving us/* Blanch! said. •;••_. "Now, the state has raised the * chargeoff to 21 mills, but they haven't raised the floor. It's still at 20 miUs.** Board member Angle Marslgba further stated. "It raises the local contribution rate under the state basic aid formula, but does cot change the raulage exempt from the effects of House BUT 920. This con create a "phantom revenue'* problem for some districts. where the stats Is assuming the district is bringing in more local funds than they actually are." In other business • The board accepted the resignation of Marilyn Hubbard. due to retirement, at the end of the 1994-95 school year. Superintendent Bianchl said. "She's been a long-term Spanish teacher.

Jim was our recreation director for several years, then after bia full time Job required more of his time, he resigned *"H accepted a position as a member of the recreation commission. He now has decided 15 years Is a long time and someone else should be given the opportunity to . serve. He has been very instrumental in many different improveruots in this area over the years am has always displayed a positive disposition. Thanks. Jim. best wishes to you and your family. Welcome Aboard! I am pWwd to announce that long time resident and well known cheerleader, Betty Wakefield has accepted my appointment to the recreation commission. She will be filling two big holes. She is a senior citizen (and proud of It!) and a woman. Both of these areas were lacking on this board. 1 am confident her love of the community and energy will be a real asset to the recreation commission acd thus, the community. How about you? We don't have any openings at this time, but when we do it would be nice to have a list of Interested names to turn to. My list is getting short. From time to time, council and I have to appoint residents to serve on various boards and commissions. There is the Planning Commission, Recreation Commission. Air Pollution Control Board, Zoning Board of Appeals, Civil Service Commission, Income , Tax Board of Review, Cable Advisory Commission, Environmental Affairs Advisory Board and the Tree Commission. Also, every so often there is the Charter Review , Commission. I'd like to encourage you to find the area that you feel would best suit your desires and thoae of the community, and express that to me in s letter, or let your councupersoa ki*ow. If you have any questions about the duties or functions of any of these groups, feel free to give me a call. Again, there aren't any openings at present, but I don't know If there is a year that passes whin a hole doesn't open up and needs to be filled. , -." Publici Aeces* Studio - Tfee new studio for local programming is being put together at the library. They have graciously welcomed us into their faciltty and as far as cable goes, that will be our hoioe. The future hoMs a lot of new twists in local programming and it is definitely gaitiy to be interesting. Thank yon « to Mr. Kopf and VIP far allowingg us to stay g y at d The Landings, rent free, oatill we moved into the library. Thanks are also in order to Continental Cable for providing us space for a studio over the past few years. New Phone. - The new phone system installation is moving along pretty weU. Fire. Engineering,. Planning, Service, and Building have seen thatr new equipment installed. Police, City HaJl. Recreation, and the Mayor's Office are nexL After that tha whole system will be changed over so that hopefully youTI never have to hear a busy signal again. You may be put en hold, but al least you'll get through! After we are all trained on the new system. Tm sun the end result will mean a more efficient operation, BIG DITCH - It aeems this issue has quieted down a little bit. I think what got lost in this whole situation is that *h« plan that was discussed was jr ,i that - a plan. One option or draft, if you wiU. of bow the drainage for the center of the city could be handled. We are going to study what other options are available so that we can answer all of the questions, and so that whatever method is the final outcome is totally justified. The two most important issues on thur to me are: 1) That we take can cf tl_* existing areas first that are experiencing problems and 2) that we do ft in the most practical and cost effective way possible. Please keep In mind when you and I purchased our homes we paid our share of sewer Installations for our property. We should do our darndest to solve this problem with the cost going only to those who bavent paid and their property will benefit by this improvement By law, you can only assess so much cost to the unimproved property. Anything over and above that, is the responsibility.. of the city - your tax dollara. We should try our hardest to keep city funds out of : this process as much as we ran. The In- "" put I've received on this, both negative and positive, has been great, I appreciate your calls and your r stopping me to tell me how you feel. •'.., •''"'' A word or pralse_.to the vmlWQS Wrestlers.

Third, I have children of my own and I do not think that their playful sounds are noise! At council meetings last spring. I heard neighbors say that all they want is for Mrs. Samanich to operate within the law. Well, since January of 1995. Jody Samanich has been operating "legally" within current ordinances while at the same time working through the legal system to change tho outdated ordinance and Mrs. Scott and Others are still not happy! Were those just words or are they unhappy by nature? When they are finished with Mrs. Samanich, who will they come after next? 1 wonder if they will ever be happy. —. To the idilar. 8 I am a citizen of Avon. I am not a § member of Kids in Need of Day Care. I cc do not have children who are currently 2= in iieedofday care. I am not ao "illegal" to employee of Diamond Child Preschool. S although I am employed by the £ Saciaaich EamiJy is another capacity. I ui am at Jody's house almost every week jE day and I see what is going on. As a citizen and taxpayer. I am legibly upset by what has been transpiring as a result of her operation of a licensed day care home. Licensed home day care had been in existence in Avon for 6 years with no problems. When xsy own daughter got to he of preschcai age. I saw an ad in The Pre»a far Diamond Child Preschool, which was celebrating its grand opening. Having moved h&e form another suburb where qualify day care was very easily available. 1 was pleased to find this program, because it also seemed to be a high quality program. It gave me peace of mind to knuw that ray child would be in a highly regulated licensed home-1 did not want to have to worry about my daughter's safety while she was away from me- She spent two very productive years at Diamond Child Preschool and is now doing well in public school, having palsed her kindergarten screening with flying colors! Last spring I, along with many other moms and supporters, sat through months of Monday night meetings at city hall watching our council attempting to update an old ordinance to allow what had been allowed for lue previous 8 years. This being my first experience with a council. I was surprised by the 1 process and most surprised when they :• voted their now new ordinance down. Since then I have realized that my surprises were fust starting. I have watched .. what has been happening to this family '-"over the last year and I em appalled. I have beard the city's attorney say "We ' didn't know; anything about these businesses for the last 8 years,*- but f was at council meetings and beard the former dty safety director aay publicly that they did in fact know about them and decided that they weren't breaking any ordinances and were not hurting the dry by operating. . .' 1 have heard people say that although the businesses involved are child care businesses that the issue is not about children. At this point. I am starting to think thai they are absolutely right! What started as a citizen's attempt to change an outdated ordinance now seems to be more like a vendetta by a few neighbors and the city against Jody Samanich. The lengths that the city and neighbors have gone to to get their way and shut her up (or down) has me wondering how much freedom we as citizens actually have. I was at Jody'a bouse when the city sent "surveillance" vehicles to count children In her care day after day, hour after hour even though I knew she was completely legal in her operations at the time they were doing this. As a taxpayer. I wonder if the city has nothing better to do with our. money. I was at Jody's house and saw neighbor* going out in their bathiobes to Call Corrigan put notes on legally parked cars in from of Jody's house which had nothing *o do with her day care busin&ss. I was lhn?o Supports Fusco for mayor when clients of Jody's were yelled a: by To tho citizens of Sheffield Lake: neighbors. I was there when the police This letter is in support of Mr. Fusco CB-ne to this teacher's house to serve running for mayor. 1 have Uved in Shefcharges because ihe hired someone with field Lake for over 7 yoars, and I am por11 yean of experience caring for young sootily tired of living in a town where children instead of hiring her husband. I the mayor doesn't care what goes on in was there on the day that this preschool this town and. City Council thinks that teacher had to go to CRIMINAL court they own this town! Mr. Fusco seems to . because of this zoning violation because really care about Improving this city. He she stood up for what she'believed. She lias a hard job ahead of him "when" he stood up to Avon and Avcn didn't like it. wins! I don't envy the road ahead of Are you as nervous as i am? If they will him. As far as I'm concerned, the city of do aU this to one person for standing up Eiwffietd Lake is In a shambles (thanks for their beliefs and trying to make a to the current government), and I'm sure change, who will they go after next? Is they're going to make Mr. Fiasco's life this the best uiu> of our tax dollars? very difficult in the next several months. Really, Mr. Griflbre. was it really necessary to issue hint a citation for his Last summer, 1 heard fciayor Smith To me this }ust goes to show that say that this Issue should be taken to the signs? the current government is running public, that doing so would clear the air scored that .tomeone who cares just and let the people speak.

Our first meeting will be on Saturday. April 22.1 will contact each child and parent in the group before then with more details about our learning adventure. If you are under 16 years old. you do not need an Ohk> fishing license for fishing at Jie pond. At this time. 1 would like to thank Kathy Lynch, clerk of Avon Lake City Council, and James J. Smith. Avon Lake attorney. Kathy and jtni both went out of their way to help me with same questions X had pertaining to our group. Thank you both very much, and the kids thank you too! Inland water fishing is starting to heat up! Spencer Lake has given up a few nice largemouth bass plus some eightinch bluegills. These fish were all caught from the shore, not in boats. Local ponds are in the temperature range of 52 , degrees, and the bass are starting to move. The bass fishermen are using live golden shiners in the three-inch. size. and the bluegills are hitting on maggots, wax worms and smail worms. Greta Williams from Gateway Tackle reports that some walleye are being caught from both the north and south end of Pymutuning Lake. Walleye fishermen are using a jig and minnow presentation, along with sonars and cicada jiggling lures. Williams -also reports that crappie and bluegills are just starting to become active. West Branch Lake in Ravenna is starting to produce walleye, northern pike and a few muskies. Bluegills and crappies are starting to hit In the many •hallow biys and coves. As of March 23. the water temperature In the main lake at West Branch was 44 degreea, and tho bays and shallow coves were at 53 degrees. Wesr Branch b the only lake I know of around hare that is the same as the natural takes in Ontario, Canada. It has long, rocky points that drop effto25 to 30 feel of water. There are some spots in this lake that will drop off to 35 feet deep, three feet from shore. It has many rocky, sunken Island*. It also has many gravel, sand and weedy areas. If you are a structure educated fisherman, give this great lake a try! .•. Before you leave for West Branch ol Pydistuning, keep in mind that catching fish in these lakes requires a. little moos skill and knowledge other than j ging a few hires behind your bcaU If you would like to see for yourself what great walleye fishing the Gnod River offers, take a ride out to the areaof the grand just below the Route 2 bridge near the Uniroyal property to St. Ctalr Road. For the next several weeks, state personnel will be in that area during daylight hours collecting walleyes to be tagged and released as pan of an- ongoing study of migration and distribution in the river. Recent studies show that, walleyes originating in the Grand River are genetically different than those in the western basin of Lake Erie. ,;.;;/. One question that I hear a lot Is, why does Ohio insist on not having a closed season for walleye in the spring oa Laka Erie? The answer: Biologists are convinced that since commercial fishing for walleye in Ohio is banned, there is no need to protect the prime walleye breeders. 1 have my own views on this. \ and I definitely do not agree with the : biologists. Cranted, everything is great uow, but let's look ahead a little biL I am/ sure everyone remembers the blue pike. Everything was great with them also, until one day. they were gone and have never come back! " • .. .. , As of May 1. federal law says boaters cannot get by with cushions and rings. Boaters- and fishermen are. reminded that effective May 1, federal law will ro-;quire a wearable flotation device for each person aboard smaller crafts. Fut*. thermore, the state is in the process of changing its laws to conform with the federal law. This means that such items as cushions and rings o longer may be counted asflotation,devices on watercrafts. Thus, the law for smaller boats will be the sains as the law for the larger boats, and the device must be Coast Cuard approved, and be the approximate sizs for the potential wearer.

Above is the specific area where McCaskey wants to put his farm market. (See arrow.) Maps - courtesy of Avon Lake Planning DepL AVON LAKE — An uphill battle for James McCaskey of North Ridgeville has ensued for the past few years and shows no signs cf letting up. McCaskey has been trying to buUd a farm market on Walter Road, a quarter mile west of the Avon Belden-Walker Road Intersection. But his plan was once again detiiei by Planning Commission last week despite a court order for the PC to reconsider. McCasiey*s Uwyer. Patrick Mackin. was hopeful the commission would overturn its decision last week, since Common Pleas Judge Lycett McGough I>III»H an order to reconsider based on the city's newly revised Comprehensive isiirf Use Plan. The land McCaskey has owned since 1982 is zoned residential, yet it is surrounded by commercially zoned laud and also by land zoned b'isiness. Developer Bucky Kopf owns the majority of the land to the east of MeCaskey's property - moat of which will become Town Center. "Nobody in their right mind would build a hcuse surrounded by commercial property," McCaskey said in frustration af*er the March 21 meeting. la a unanimous decision, the commission voted against the rezoning. Planning Commission Chairperson Erma Haverback said the Citizens Advisory Commission, which just completed revisions of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan, is opposed to strip shopping along Walker Road. Rezoning McCaskey's property would, in effect, open the door for owners of land west of McCaskey's to request rezoning to commercial, and thus open the door to strip shopping. "You keep going on. and then you have a whole Walker Road (of strip shopping)." Mrs. Haverback said. Existing coramsrcially zoned land includes the Learwood Square area, property at Moore and Walker Roadi, pro- ' petty at Lear Road and Electric Boulevard, and land on the southeast Roads, Mrs. Haverback said, adding that there are a number of vacant stores m •". the commercial areas as welL .: : The'new Comprehensive Land Use Plan has recommended two mo-e areas to be zoned commercial, and Me- • O. -key'* property is not near either one.* even though it's, attached to land , awaiting Town Center development. _,., • : The two areas designated as future;: commercial property as indicated in the Comprehensive Land Use Plan are an ' area along Walker Road across From The Ceon Company; and land on the west side of Avon Belden Road that abuts the. \ newly zoned industrial area. .'.'.'• " "This land will serve as a buffer bet- :-: ween residential and retaiL" Mrs. Haverback said. :':;-.
