Have we seen the last of new Van Wert County wind farms?
BY ED GEBERT
DHI Media Editor
news@delphosherald.com
VAN WERT Within the past
few days, the future for wind energy
in Van Wert County has taken an
almost 180-degree turn. Whereas
land deals were signed and in force,
plans and maps were drawn up and
it appeared that Dog Creek Wind
Farm in the eastern half of the
county would soon join Blue Creek
Wind Farm to the west, two recent
changes from Columbus may have
reversed the momentum locally.
Last Friday, Senate Bill 310 was
signed into law by Ohio Gov. John
Kasich, putting a two-year hiatus on
renewable-energy standards in the
state. Then Monday, Kasich put his
signature on House Bill 483 with-
out using a line item, which would
have eliminated stiffer requirements
for setbacks of wind turbines from
property lines.
While no announcement has
been made about the specific future
of any further wind projects local-
ly, Iberdrola Renewables Project
Developer Dan Litchfield said on
Tuesday, We are disappointed with
the two recent changes in Ohios
energy policy, both their substance
and the process by which the set-
back requirements were changed.
The setback provision specifically
had no opportunity for public com-
ment or input.
Concerning the immediate
future of Dog Creek Wind Farm,
Litchfield would only say, We
are currently assessing our options
for future investment in Ohio but
theres no question that more invest-
ment in Ohio just became a much
riskier proposition. Its frustrating
that were now less likely to work
with our dozens of local landowner
partners and Lincolnview Local
Schools to add new revenue to the
community.
A statement directly from
Iberdrola Renewables was harsher in
tone, quoting American Wind Energy
Association CEO Tom Kiernan as
saying that Kasich and the legisla-
ture are creating an unfriendly busi-
ness environment in Ohio.
Kiernan went on to say,
Legislators rammed through
restrictive rules without due pro-
cess and millions of dollars already
invested based on the previous set
of rules may now be lost without
any public debate. This will force
clean-energy developers and manu-
facturers to move to neighboring
states with similar resources and
friendlier business climates.
The new law changes requires
wind turbines to be at least 1,300
feet from the nearest property line
instead of the nearest house. Senate
Bill 310 changes the renewable
electricity standard for two years.
Ohio Sen. Cliff Hite, a wind
energy-backer, explained that with
changes in the marketplace, perhaps
having 25 percent of the states
energy coming from renewable
energy by 2025 needed to be re-
examined.
Council
formally
OKs income
tax increase
BY GREG SCHERGER
DHI Media Correspondent
DELPHOS Delphos City Council met
in regular session Monday evening for the
second time in the month. However, due to
the fact that two councilmen were not pres-
ent Joe Martz and Andy Knueve all of
the matters presented on first reading and the
majority of the legislation on second reading
carried over to a quickly-scheduled special
meeting to be held at 6:15 p.m. today at coun-
cil chambers on Canal Street.
With only five council members pres-
ent, the attendance was insufficient for vot-
ing on first and second reading ordinances.
Legislation on third reading was addressed
by those in attendance and all third reading
ordinances were unanimously passed.
On third reading, council passed an ordi-
nance to formally adopt the quarter-percent
income tax increase passed by Delphos vot-
ers on May 6. The tax increase will go into
effect as of July 1 on all qualifying wages,
commissions and other compensation earned
or received by residents of the city and upon
non-residents of the city for work performed
or services rendered within the city.
The quarter-percent increase raises the
city income tax from the present 1.5 percent
to 1.75 percent and is in effect until June
30th, 2017, unless amended by council at
that time. The new tax increase is expected
to raise approximately $400,000 annually
for the city and is earmarked for the Parks
Department.

Chief Cook warns of aggressive door-to-door sales
BY STEPHANIE GROVES
DHI MEDIA Staff Writer
sgroves@delphosherald.com
SPENCERVILLE Spencerville
Police Chief Darin Cook reported a
group of people had been canvassing
the town selling Kirby Sweepers who
were very aggressive and pushed their
way into homes to try and sell vacuums
a few weeks ago.
After getting calls regarding the
individuals, I had three separate conver-
sations with them and each time they
said they did not have a permit with
them, he told council Monday. We
took names and other information
none of them had a drivers license
and ran background checks.
The people were all from different
states and had criminal histories
criminal records of bank robbery and
other felonies and they were run-
ning through the neighborhood to catch
up with each other. Cook said their
actions were alarming. After the last
conversation with two individuals deliv-
ering something to a resident, Cook said
he stopped them, checked for drivers
licenses which neither individual had
and told them to leave town.
I told them Id like to have a face-to-
face with the business owner and pulled
their permit, Cook said. There is a
Southwestern Educational Books sales per-
son in the vicinity who has a clean record
and showed me his permit up front.

FORT JENNINGS
Jennings Mayor Jim Smith
spoke to Park Board Vice
President Kari Amstutz about
preparations for Fort Fest, the
annual celebration set for Aug.
16-17, during Tuesday nights
council meeting.
As discussed at the May 20
meeting, Amstutz spoke with
council about road closures for
the event and asked if it would
be possible to close Water
Street Thursday night to set up
the entertainment tent early. She
said last year, it was very rushed
to try and set it up on Friday.
We will send a letter to
residents notifying them of the
road closures Second and
Water streets starting at 5 p.m.
Thursday, Aug. 14 through
midnight Sunday, Aug. 17, he
explained. I thought we would
add a flyer to the mailing.
Smith asked Amstutz if she
would like to get a flyer ready
to be stuffed into the mailing to
residents. He said she could do
something in black and white or
color. He estimated there would
be close to 190 letters mailed.

Todays Highlight in History:
On June 18, 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson and
Japanese Prime Minister Hayato Ikeda spoke to each other
by telephone as they inaugurated the first trans-Pacific cable
completed by AT&T between Japan and Hawaii, and linked
to existing cables between Hawaii and California. (Due to the
time difference, it was already June 19 in Tokyo.)
On this date:
In 1778, American forces entered Philadelphia as the
British withdrew during the Revolutionary War.
In 1812, the War of 1812 began as the United States
Congress approved, and President James Madison signed, a
declaration of war against Britain.
In 1815, Napoleon Bonaparte met his Waterloo as British
and Prussian troops defeated the French in Belgium.
In 1873, suffragist Susan B. Anthony was found guilty by
a judge in Canandaigua, New York, of breaking the law by
casting a vote in the 1872 presidential election. (The judge
fined Anthony $100, but she never paid the penalty.)
In 1908, William Howard Taft was nominated for presi-
dent by the Republican National Convention in Chicago.
In 1912, the Republican National Convention, which
would nominate President William Howard Taft for another
term of office, opened in Chicago.
In 1940, during World War II, British Prime Minister
Winston Churchill urged his countrymen to conduct them-
selves in a manner that would prompt future generations to
say, This was their finest hour.
In 1953, a U.S. Air Force Douglas C-124 Globemaster II
crashed near Tokyo, killing all 129 people on board. Egypts
148-year-old Muhammad Ali Dynasty came to an end with
the overthrow of the monarchy and the proclamation of a
republic.
In 1972, 118 people were killed in the crash of a Brussels-
bound British European Airways Hawker Siddeley Trident
1C shortly after takeoff from London Heathrow Airport.
In 1979, President Jimmy Carter and Soviet President
Leonid I. Brezhnev signed
the SALT II strategic arms
limitation treaty in Vienna.

Elections chief sets
new early voting hours
COLUMBUS (AP) Ohio voters
who want to cast an early ballot in per-
son before Election Day will get new
hours to do so under a schedule set
Tuesday by the states election chief fol-
lowing a recent federal order.
Secretary of State Jon Husted direct-
ed Ohios 88 county elections boards to
be open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday;
from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday; and from
8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday for upcoming
major contests, including the Nov. 4
election.
That means voters in the battleground
state will get a total of 18 hours to
vote in person over the final three
days before presidential primaries and
presidential and gubernatorial general
elections.
Under Husteds previous schedule for
this November, residents could not have
voted on the Sunday and Monday before
Election Day.
The new times come after a federal
ruling in a 2012 lawsuit filed against
Husted by Democrats and President
Barack Obamas re-election campaign.
In the June 11 decision, U.S. District
Judge Peter Economus ordered the
Republican secretary of state to set uni-
form and suitable in-person early voting
hours for all eligible voters for the three
days preceding all future elections.
At issue in the case was a 2011 state
law that cut off in-person, early voting
for most residents three days before
Election Day, but allowed an excep-
tion for military and overseas voters to
cast a ballot in person until Monday.
Democrats claimed that arrangement
amounted to unequal treatment of vot-
ers, and said everyone should have the
chance to vote on the three days before
Election Day.
The judge issued a temporary order
in August 2012 that allowed voting to
occur on the final three days before
the November presidential election.
With the case still pending, Husted in
February set a voting schedule for this
years elections with hours that included
only the Saturday before Election Day.
The federal judge issued the perma-
nent injunction last week, barring the
states top election official from enforc-
ing Friday as the close of early voting
and requiring hours be set for the three
days.
In announcing the new times, Husted
said Tuesday that he considers the mat-
ter settled.
It is my sincere hope that in the
future Republicans and Democrats can
work together to put voters first and
avoid these kinds of controversies, he
said in a written statement.
Husted also issued early voting hours for
municipal, primary and special elections.
His Democratic challenger criti-
cized the new schedule as not going
far enough. State Sen. Nina Turner of
Cleveland said it fails to provide for
evening early voting hours that working
Ohioans need this cycle.

Aspen Energy
Representative Marc Hollinger
met with council members
to discuss residential electric
aggregation and establishing a
program for the village.
Aggregation requires a vote
and is a process where com-
munities combine their resi-
dents into a large buying group,
which results in increased buy-
ing power and stable rates for
members, Hollinger said.
Hollinger explained locking
in a rate for one, two or three
years is the way to go. Folks
who dont want it have three
weeks to opt out. In order for
the village to create an aggrega-
tion program, a majority of the
residents have to pass a bal-
lot issue authorizing the village
to negotiate the rates on their
behalf.
Smith asked if the ballot
could be presented at either
a general election or primary
election. Hollinger explained it
could be either and most of the
time it (the aggregation) passes
unless there is an income tax
increase on the ballot.
If we would pass the
ordinance in July, can we
still get that on the ballot for
November? Smith asked.
As long as it is 90 days
prior to the election, Hollinger
explained.
Council agreed there will be
a mailer sent out explaining
the aggregation program and a
town hall meeting to allow resi-
dents to participate in asking
questions about the program.
Smith asked Wrasman how
the sewer pumps were perform-
ing and Wrasman responded
with everything has been run-
ning just fine.
Discussion turned to mos-
quito control and Smith spoke
to council about Mosquito
Dunks, a larvaecide that kills
mosquito larvae only.
I wanted to present this to
council, Smith said. We could
drop these into the catch basins
since they float on top of the
water.
It will not kill adult mosqui-
toes but the Mosquito Bits will
and those can be placed in high-
moisture areas.
The next council meeting
will take place a 7:30 p.m. on
July 15.
Fest
Columbus to move
Santa Maria replica
COLUMBUS (AP) Columbus has discovered it
needs to move a replica of the Santa Maria from its
downtown river mooring while a multimillion dollar
riverfront project continues.
The replica of explorer Christopher Columbus flag-
ship is getting in the way of a $35.5 million project nar-
rowing the Scioto River and adding dozens of acres of
green space, said Alan McKnight, city Recreation and
Parks director.
City Council on Monday approved spending $500,000
to move the ship to make it easier to work on the park
where the ship is situated, the Columbus Dispatch
reported.
Some renovations will also be made while the ship
is in dry dock, McKnight said. The bottom of the ship
is fiberglass and does not need to be repaired, but the
wooden deck and other parts have decayed over the
years.
The city will hire the Albany, New York, builders of
the ship to help with renovations.
About 17,000 visitors board the ship each year, said
Linda Ketcham, executive director of the nonprofit
group Santa Maria, Inc.
The ship, which arrived in 1991, will likely return
to the river in 2016, but may be placed someplace new,
possibly closer to the Center of Science And Industry
across from its current location, McKnight said. There
are no plans to remove it permanently.
The riverfront project is dramatically reshaping the
river downtown. The removal of a low head dam has
freed up large amounts of land being redeveloped as
park space.

Pain Doctor Discovers Blood Flow-
Busting Material Into Miracle Socks
for Diabetics and Foot Pain Sufferers!
Breakthrough circulation-boosting fibers improve blood flow, relieve swelling,
boost oxygen flow, and eliminate foot fatigue - naturally in as little as 5 minutes!
Being Diabetic, I never had pain-free feet - UNTILNOW!
PAD ADVERTSEMENT
What part of your swollen, tired,
or achy feet would you like to see
go-away?
If you suffer from poor circula-
tion, injury, swelling or any condi-
tion that leaves your feet fatigued
and sore, then read on to discover
the breakthrough that can change
your life.
Good news comes in the form of
a pain-busting microfiber that is
used to weave a circulation-boost-
ing sock, called Bambusa
TM
.
Better Blood Flow
The miracle sock is made from
a new, patented anion-technology
that is weaved into every strand of
thread used to make a Bambusa
TM
sock. This special micro-fiber
thread is made from revolutionary
bamboo charcoal to stimulate
blood flow andrevitalize feet.
When this material comes in con-
tact with body-heat it is proven to
release circulation-boosting ions.
The 3D-weave technology used
in the material has been compared
to infrared light therapy to help re-
vitalize stiff and sore muscles. The
manufacturer, who also makes a
back and wrist sleeve, says the ma-
terial provides almost instant relief
to any part of the body it touches,
making it ideal for diabetics, ath-
letes,inflammation, stiffness and
swelling.
Anne M. from California agrees.
Bambusa socks are absolutely the
most comfortable socks I have ever
worn! My feet are no longer fa-
tigued!
Therapy
Without A Prescription!
When the socks were pho-
tographed using a thermographic
imaging camera, results showed up
to a 17% to 22% increase in blood
flow. This helped to improvemus-
cle oxygenation and decrease foot
fatigue. The socks have been proven
to provide extended relief from
cold, swollen and fatigued feet.
Doctor
Recommended
Pain specialist
of 30 years, Dr.
Jahner comments
on the 3D-weave
technology. In-
frared therapy has
been used for
years at medical
clinics to treat vascular and circula-
tory conditions. Physical therapists
use infrared therapy to speed re-
covery. Better blood flow equals
less pain. This microfiber works
much the same way.
"Circulatory dysfunction affects
MOST of the adult population in
the United States. Heart Disease,
Strokes and Diabetic conditions are
at epidemic levels; anything that
improves circulation improves cel-
lular health and vitality. I use the
Bambusa product myself and rec-
ommend it to my clients. It really
works! states Dr Jahner.
Results in Minutes?
John G. of California claims he
felt immediate results with his
tired, swollen feet. Without exag-
geration the relief was almost in-
stantaneous. It is like a heating pad
set to low and wrapped around my
calf. I will be replacing my entire
set of dress socks with these
socks!
Relief for Tired, Swollen Feet
Bambusa
TM
socks are not a med-
ical device or compression socks
because they dont restrict blood
flow. Utilizing the special negative-
anion technology, they comfortably
increase blood flow and oxygen to
tissues. My feet felt wonderful,
cool, and I never got that pins and
needles feeling anymore. I love my
Bambusa
TM
socks, says Nancy,
from NJ.
They are ideal for diabetics and
those suffering from neuropathy or
injury from repetitive use. Bam-
busa
TM
socks can also bring com-
fort to tired legs within minutes of
putting them on, energizing indi-
viduals who spend long hours on
their feet.
Goodbye to Pain and Numbness
Marilyn H. has suffered persist-
ent foot problems for years and no-
ticed fast results. The issue for me
was persistent numbness in my
toes - it was gone completely after
a few days of wearing these socks!
Being diabetic, I never had pain-
free feet - UNTILNOW!
I went out on the golf course
for 18 holes of golf, and when I got
home my feet werent swollen,
they werent sweating and my feet
didnt hurt, says Lou B. from New
York.
BENEFITS:
Increased blood flow and
oxygen
Reduced swelling and pain
Anti-microbial
Wicks away moisture
Increased range of motion
IDEALFOR:
Neuropathy
Raynaud's Syndrome
Cramping
Cold Feet
Tom from NJ reports, I suffer
from chronic foot cramps. My feet
were sore for days after the cramp-
ing. My wife gave me the Bam-
busa
TM
socks, I wore them, and the
foot cramps stopped. I replaced all
my socks with Bambusa
TM
. My
feet feel great now.

The infrared anions generated by the charcoal bamboo in-
crease blood flow and deliver oxygen to the tissues. After
wearing for only minutes there is an increase in temperature
due to the increased blood flow, resulting in improved com-
fort and reduced swelling. Twenty minutes after using the
anion-fiber infused socks, patient has better blood flow and
less numbness.

BY VERENA EICHER
Age 16
Hello! This is Lovinas daughter, Verena.
Mom has been extra busy lately, so I wanted
to help her out by writing the column for her
this week.
Washing dishes, sweeping and mopping
floors and watering flowers has filled my
day. With having sisters Loretta,
13, and Lovina, 10, home from
school, they can help out a lot
around the house already. I like
to send Lovina after my things
when I feel a little lazy. Smile!
I enjoy helping mom keep her
gardens and flowers watered.
She depends on me to keep the
flowers watered, so I try my best
to keep them looking nice. They
are nicely hung on our porch,
making it look beautiful from
the view on the road. I want to
help mom do some weeding in
the garden if we get time tomor-
row. We want to also wash laundry tomorrow,
if it doesnt rain.
Sister Elizabeth has a Yorkshire Terrier
puppy. Shes only had it for a week. She is
named Isabella. We call her Izzy for short.
She is such a little ornery puppy sometimes.
She loves to play and all the attention she gets
around here. Elizabeth also has a Shih Tzu
dog named Spikey. Her boyfriend Timothy
keeps Spikey at his house because he was way
too lively in our house for mom. Mom never
allowed us to have pets in the house but so far
she hasnt said anything about Izzy. Izzy is
most of the time a quiet puppy. She stays quiet
during the night and only weighs 1 pounds
so she cant cause too much trouble. Spikey
would jump on our beds waking us up before
it was time to get up. Timothy brings Spikey
along sometimes, so we still get to play with
him. I take care of Izzy while Elizabeth is
at work. She is pretty well litter-box trained
already.
Friday night our family was invited to
Timothys brother JR and Rachels house for
a birthday party for Elizabeth. Elizabeth will
be 20 on June 14. Rachel baked and decorated
a very nice cake for Elizabeth. JR and Rachel
have 10 children ages 11 months to 14 years
old, so she is a busy mother. We had a lot of
fun with the little children. On the menu for
supper was homemade pizza, ice cream, cake
and watermelon.
Saturday evening cousins Elizabeth-17,
Emma-16 and I went to the community build-
ing where all the youth gather on Saturday
evenings. We took Jacob and Emmas horse
Silver and the buggy. He is a big gray horse
and seems to do a good job to let us drive
him. The youth play games such as volleyball,
basketball and board games, etc.
There are usually 2 sets or more
of parents at the building to
chaperone us youth. They bring
snacks and drinks for every-
one. Ivan and Ruth and another
couple that I didnt recognize
were chaperones on Saturday
evening. They treated us all to
pizza and pop which we all
enjoyed. Elizabeth, Emma and I
decided to spend the night at our
friend Rhondas house instead
of driving home after dark. We
started for home the next morn-
ing after it was daylight.
Sunday night cousins Elizabeth, Emma
and I took our horse Itty Bit and our buggy to
the youth singing. It was at Tim and Violets
house which is probably around eight miles
from here. For supper they had a casse-
role, hot dog sandwiches, salad, watermelon,
strawberries, cake and ice cream.
I need to get busy and I hope I wrote the
column OK for you readers. Take care and
God bless!
For a recipe Ill share this beef nacho cas-
serole:
Beef Nacho Casserole
3 pounds ground beef, browned
1 quart (32 oz.) salsa
1 quart corn
1 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons chili powder
6 cups corn chips
6 cups shredded Colby-jack, cheddar or
mozzarella cheese
Mix first 5 ingredients. Put half in the bot-
tom of a large casserole. Then put in half of
chips, then half of cheese. Repeat layers. Bake
until heated through. You may top with lettuce
and tomatoes if you would like. Note: Omit
chili powder if using hot salsa.

SPORTS
Wildcats rally past Knights in ACME hardball
By JIM METCALFE
DHI Media Sports Editor
jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com
CONVOY The Jefferson ACME summer baseball team
rallied from a 4-3 deficit and scored the last five runs to double
up Crestview 8-4 in action Monday at the Crestview Athletic
Complex.
The Wildcats scored the first three runs in the top of the
fourth frame, with the host Knights answering with one in the
home half and three more in the bottom of the fifth.
The Red and White tallied three runs in the visi-
tors sixth and two in the seventh.
Josh Teman got the pitching win, going the first
five frames (4 hits, 2 bases-on-balls, 4 unearned
runs, 1 strikeout; 62 pitches, 34 for strikes), with
Jace Stockwell getting the save with two frames of
1-hit, 2-strikeout relief (37 pitches, 25 strikes).
Gaige Rassman (3 runs, RBI) and Jake Pulford (run)
went 2-for-3 to pace the Wildcat 6-hit attack.
Crestview southpaw Justin Overmyer started (3 2/3
IPs, 2 hits, 4 BBs, 3 earned runs, 4 Ks; 68 pitches, 33
strikes) but righty reliever Spencer Rolsten took the loss
(2 1.3 IPs, 3 hits, 1 BB, 3 runs, 2 earned, 1 hit batter, 2
Ks; 38 pitches, 23 strikes). Preston Gerardot threw an
inning of 1-hit, 1-walk, 2-unearned run relief.
Gerardot led the 5-hit Crestview offense with a 2-for-
3 night (run), while Colby Clifton went 1-for-3 with two
runs batted in.
After the Knights had rallied to take the lead 4-3 at
the end of five frames, the Red and White took it back with
that 3-spot in the top of the sixth. Rassman started it with an
infield hit and an out later, Pulford singled to right and Ryan
Bullinger walked to juice the bases. Nick Fitch was hit by
a pitch, scoring Rassman, and Adam Rode forced Fitch at
second to get Pulford home and put runners on the corners.
A throwing error on a Kurt Wollenhaupt grounder plated
Bullinger for that 6-4 lead.
The hosts tried to retaliate in the home half as Zach
Simerman got aboard via a 2-out error but was caught trying
to steal by Fitch.
The visitors put on the last two runs in the seventh. Hunter
Binkley got aboard on a leadoff throwing error, stole second,
took third on a wild pitch and, an out later, scored as Rassman
singled sharply to right. An error on a Gage Mercer grounder
allowed both runners to stay on base. Pulford walked to load
the bases and a force-out of Pulford on Bullingers grounder
got Rassman in for the final tally.
Gerardot led off the Crestview seventh with a single to left
but could only get as far as second.
The Wildcats didnt touch Overmyer until a 2-out free pass
to Wollenhaupt in the visiting third.
The Knights first got to Teman with a 1-out infield hit
to short by Gerardot but Fitch threw out his second attempt
base-stealer.
The Red and White took a 3-0 edge in the fourth. Binkley
led off with an infield hit, took third on a pickoff error and
touched the dish on a Jace Stockwell sacrifice fly to center.
Back-to-back bases-on-balls (Rassman and Mercer) and a
slap to right by Pulford juiced the sacks. Rassman scored on
Bullingers sac fly to center and after Fitch walked to again
load them up, Rodes infield hit to short plated Mercer
for the 3-run lead.
The Knights got a run back in the bottom half on a
1-out walk to Colby Clifton, a pickoff error and an RBI
slap to center by Nate Owens.
The home team took the lead with a 3-run fifth.
With one down, Simerman got aboard on a throwing
error, followed by a 2-base throwing error on a Gerardot
grounder that plated Simerman. Gerardot stayed put as
Rolsten beat out an infield hit to short and Jordan Miller
Walked to load the bases. Clifton conked a 2-run single
the opposite way into left to get Gerardot and Rolsten
home for that 1-run edge. A pickoff error moved runners
to second and third but they stayed there.
Both teams return to the diamonds today, both at
home: Jefferson vs. Lincolnview and Crestview vs. St.
Johns.

Early eruption paces
Kalida by Grove
By CHARLIE
WARNIMONT
COLUMBUS GROVE
Kalida took advantage of seven
hits in the first inning Monday
evening to defeat Columbus
Grove 7-1 in ACME baseball
action at the Columbus Grove
Athletic Complex.
Kalida moved to 8-1 on the
summer.
The Wildcats sent nine bat-
ters to the plate in the first
inning to score six times in
getting the early advantage on
the Bulldogs.
The first three Wildcat bat-
ters in the first inning set the
tone for the game banging out
hits giving Kalida a quick 2-0
lead.
Austin Swift opened the
Wildcat first with a single to
center and he scored from
first base as Drew Hovest
lined a double to left-center
field. Drew Hovest scored as
Brent Hovest hit a ground rule
double over the right fielders
head.
Brent Hovest stole third
base as Bulldog starter Elisha
Jones was striking out the
fourth batter of the inning.
Brady Laudick made it a
3-0 game with a double to
left-center and he moved to
third base as Noah Lambert
dropped a short single into
right field and Lambert took
second base when the throw
from the outfield got away
from a Bulldog player.
After a popup to third base
for the second out, Nathan
Meyers lined a single to right
field that scored the two base
runners and he took second
base on the throw home. Trent
Siebeneck made it a 6-0 game
with a single to right-center
before Siebeneck was picked
off first base to end the inning.
The kids hit the ball well.
They stayed within the count
to hit the ball well, Kalida
ACME coach Gary Zeller
said. We are asking them to
be patient up there and take
what the pitcher gives you.
Down six runs before they
stepped into the batters box,
the Bulldogs attempted to
curb the Wildcat momentum
as they mounted a rally in the
bottom of the first inning.
After Kalida starter Austin
Klausing retired the first bat-
ter, Zach Shafer and Jake
Utendorf worked walks. The
two base-runners moved up
a base on a groundout before
Marcos Olivo was hit by a
pitch to load the bases. A
wild pitch allowed Shafer to
score before Travis Ellerbrock
walked to reload the bases. A
groundout to shortstop ended
the inning as the Bulldogs left
the bases loaded.
After the first inning,
Klausing kept the Bulldogs
off the scoreboard although
Columbus Grove had base-
runners in three of the next
four innings that Klausing
worked. For the game,
Klausing allowed one run on
one hit while walking four
batters with two strikeouts and
he hit three batters.
Klausings defense helped
him in the third inning as an
error and two hit batters load-
ed the bases with one out.
Kalida was able to turn a dou-
ble play to end the inning.
T.J. Pardo had the Bulldogs
only hit off Klausing, a fourth-
inning infield single.
He was working on his
mechanics early; he hadnt
thrown in a while, so he did
that the first inning, Zeller
said. He threw strikes and
thats all we ask from him.
Derek Buss finished the
game allowing no runs on one
hit with two strikeouts. He
only faced seven batters in the
two innings he worked.
After a rough first inning,
Jones settled down for
Columbus Grove allowing
just one more run in going
the distance. That run came
in the second inning as Swift
doubled, moved to third on a
balk and scored on a ground-
out.
It wasnt like they were
hitting it at us that first
inning; they were finding
a lot of holes in the field,
Grove ACME coach Mason
Smith said. Elisha had some
pitches up that first inning
and they were taking advan-
tage of that. Once he started
to keep the ball down, he
pitched a lot better.
Drew Hovest led Kalida
with three hits, while Swift
and Brent Hovest both had
two hits.

Cougars take advantage of error-prone Jays
By LARRY HEIING
VAN WERT For the second time
in four days, the Van Wert Cougars
played a team from Delphos in ACME
baseball.
On Friday, the Cougars traveled
to Delphos and romped against the
Jefferson Wildcats, winning 16-2.
The Cougars hosted the St. Johns
Blue Jays Monday and remained per-
fect against their Lincoln Highway
neighbors with a 9-2 victory.
The Blue Jays loaded the bases
in the first inning with consecutive
hits by Austin Heiing, Jesse Ditto and
Buddy Jackson. Eric Vogts blooper to
center knocked in Heiing as the bases
remained jammed. Van Wert starting
pitcher Caleb Jenkins retired the next
batters to leave the bags full of Jays to
escape the first-inning jam.
Jacob Youngpeter started for St.
Johns and held the Cougars hitless
until Ryan Stoller singled with two outs
in the third inning. After a balk and a
stolen base, Mason Carr walked to put
runners on the corners. A wild pitch by
Youngpeter allowed Stoller to come
home a even the score at 1-1.
Just as the Cougars blew the game
wide open against Jefferson on Friday
with a big inning, Van Wert scored six
runs in the fourth to jump out to a 7-1
advantage. The Blue Jays committed
four fielding errors in the frame, hit
a batter and Stoller had a run-scoring
single, along with an Ethan Williams
double, to chase Youngpeter. Gage
Seffernick came in and retired Jenkins
to end the inning.
St. Johns scored again in the sixth
inning as Jackson reached with one
out and went to second base on an
overthrow. Vogts grounder to second
base took a bad hop and went into
center field for a hit to score Jackson
as the Jays trailed 7-2. Josh Warnecke
singled to put two on with only one out
but Jenkins again got out of the inning
retiring the final two batters.
Van Werts Stoller notched his third
hit of the game to lead off the sixth
inning and went all the way to third
on the overthrow error. The Cougars
scored again without hitting the ball as
Seffernicks wild pitch got by catcher
Jackson as Stoller scored from third.
After Carr walked and Brian Mills
was hit by a pitch, Ditto was called to
the mound by the Blue Jays coaches.
Ditto recorded an out as Jenkins hit
into a fielders choice. A sacrifice fly
hit by Gavin Cross plated Carr for the
final run of the game and the 7-run
victory.
St. Johns committed seven errors in
the field, three wild pitches, three hit-
by-pitch batters and a balk to give Van
Wert too many extra chances.
The Cougars took advantage of
the free passes given to them, scoring
those nine runs on only four hits while
the Jays out-hit them with seven base
knocks all singles.
Stoller led the Cougars with three
hits, scored three runs and had a run
batted in. Jenkins pitched a complete
game, allowing only two runs with nine
strikeouts and giving up only one walk.
St. Johns was led by Vogts two hits
and a pair of runs batted in. Heiing also
had two hits for the Jays offense.
St.Johns travels to Crestview
tonight.
Van Wert visits Lincolnview Friday
night.

Columbus State signs
Stetler for womens hoops
INFORMATION SUBMITTED
COLUMBUS Columbus State Community College
womens basketball program has announced the signing of
another standout player to further her athletic and academic
career.
Carly Stetler is a 5-11 forward and a recent graduate from
Elida High School.
Carly brings depth to our frontcourt as she is a very ath-
letic player with good size for her position and a solid back-
ground from the Western Buckeye League, Columbus State
Head Coach Joel Renner said.
Columbus State looks to be one of the top teams in the
National Junior College Athletic Association. The Cougars fin-
ished with a 20-7 record last season and reached the Top-20 in
the NJCAA national rankings for the third straight year. After
back-to-back 20-win seasons, Columbus State is focused on a
conference championship.
Stetler joins an extremely talented freshman class, which
includes 6-3 post Angel Cooler from Columbus East and
Shanice Johnson, a standout guard from Reynoldsburg High
School.
The Cougars are 57-29 in Renners tenure and are recog-
nized as one of the elite teams at the NJCAA level.
Our goal is to compete for the Ohio Community College
Athletic Association Championship and advance to the nation-
al championship tournament. The addition of Carly is a step in
the right direction in building a championship-caliber team,
he added.
Elida graduate Carly Stetler, seated middle, signed
a national letter-of-intent to attend Columbus State
and play basketball this coming winter. Pictured
with her are (seated) her dad and mom, John and
Deb Stetler, and back, Columbus State Head Coach
Joel Renner. (Submitted photo)

Excess executive pay could
eat into investors return
DEAR BRUCE: What
would you say is fair com-
pensation for a CEO? It seems
to me that if I own stock in a
company, I should be part of
what the CEO pay package
would be. Do you feel they
are way overcompensated? I
buy stocks to make me money,
and any excess money a CEO
makes takes money out of my
pocket. -- Kevin, via email
DEAR KEVIN: You raise
an interesting, but unanswer-
able question: What is fair
compensation for a CEO? If
the company is really kicking
butt and making lots of mon-
ey, it would seem to me that
the CEO should be well-paid.
Whether or not he should be
paid millions of dollars a year
is another question.
Your point is, whatever
the CEO is paid reduces your
return on your stock, which is
a valid consideration. On the
other hand, if your company
doesnt make money, a lot of
that can be traced back to bad
decisions on the part of the
CEO.
No matter how good the
man is, whether he is worth
$40 million or $50 million, I
think the board of directors is
required to answer that ques-
tion.
DEAR BRUCE: My
wife has accumulated over
$200,000 in cash from an
inheritance from her father.
Our accountant suggest-
ed an immediate annuity. I
researched and found that at
her age of 67 it would pay less
than 7 percent, and at the end,
there would be nothing left.
My wife is paranoid about
investing her cash, but she did
agree to put the $200,000 into
a company that is paying 7.3
percent. Its a security we have
held for 40 years. This way
she gets more income than
with the annuity and will be
able to leave the principal to
our children.
Yes, its putting all the eggs
in one basket, but this company
has given us a steady income
stream for many years. Also,
we have significant assets in
other IRAs and trust accounts,
so even the unlikely event of a
100 percent loss would not be
devastating. Your thoughts? --
L.C., via email
DEAR L.C.: I have abso-
lutely no quarrel with the deci-
sion you have made. I cer-
tainly wouldnt have put the
money into an annuity, in most
cases.
You say your wife is para-
noid about investing her cash,
yet she put the entire $200,000
into one company. You men-
tioned that you have held this
security for 40 years and its
done very well, and that when
she passes, your wife will be
able to leave the principal to
your children.
As you say, its putting all
your eggs in one basket, but
the company has given you a
steady income for many years
and you have other assets to
protect you in the unlikely
event the whole company goes
down. Sounds like you have
thought this out very well, and
I salute your conclusions.

Ricker
Joins Rea
& Assoc.
INFORMATION
SUBMITTED
LIMA Rea & Associates,
a regional accounting and
business consulting firm,
announces that Janet Ricker
recently joined the firms
Lima office as a client service
specialist.
Janet is detail-oriented
and a conscientious individu-
al, and were glad that she has
joined the Lima team, said
Mark McKinley, CPA, Lima
office manager. We look for-
ward to working with her to
further serve the Lima area
clients.
Prior to joining Rea, Ricker
was employed by a large retail
chain. She holds an associates
degree in applied business
with an emphasis in account-
ing from The University of
Northwestern Ohio. A native
of Delphos, Ricker currently
resides in Spencerville with
her husband.
Rea & Associates, Inc. is
a regional CPA and consult-
ing firm with more than 200
bright professionals in 11
offices throughout Ohio.
WASHINGTON (AP) Optimism
among chief executives of large U.S. compa-
nies has reached a two-year high, driven by a
more positive outlook toward hiring and sales.
The Business Roundtable said Tuesday
that its CEO outlook index rose to 95.4 in the
second quarter, up from 92.1 in the first quar-
ter. That is the highest level since the second
quarter of 2012.
The positive sentiment among CEOs of
some of the largest U.S. companies could
bode well for hiring and growth. The U.S.
economy has been adding jobs at a steady
pace this year and the unemployment rate has
fallen to 6.3 percent, a five-year low.
The proportion of CEOs expecting to hire
in the next six months rose to 43 percent, up
from just 37 percent in the first quarter.
Still, the outlook was not all rosy: the
percentage of CEOs planning to invest more
in their businesses fell to 44 percent from 48
percent.
Randall Stephenson, CEO of AT&T and
chairman of the Roundtable, blamed the drop
on the expiration of several investment tax
breaks at the beginning of the year.
The decline is troubling because of the
high correlation between business investment
and economic and job growth, Stephenson
said.
The CEOs also forecast that the economy
will grow at just a 2.3 percent pace in 2014.
That would be better than last years 1.9
percent growth, but below many economists
hopes at the beginning of this year that growth
would reach 3 percent.
US CEOs more optimistic
on hiring, sales this year
GM sales, used-car values hold up through recalls
DETROIT (AP) Consumers looking for a
used vehicle arent shying away from GM mod-
els even though more than 20 million GM cars
and trucks have been recalled this year.
General Motors cars such as the Chevrolet
Malibu have retained or increased in value, some-
times more than rival vehicles. And sales of new
cars arent slowing either, up 13 percent in May.
GM has issued 44 recalls in North America
this year for parts ranging from ignition switches
to air bags. The most serious is for ignition
switches in 2.6 million small cars linked to
more than 50 crashes and at least 13 deaths.
Investigations into that recall have exposed GM
as a company that was too slow to react to serious
safety issues.
In the past, consumers punished automakers
for big recalls. Those companies lost market
share Toyotas dropped 2 percentage points
over 12 months when it recalled 14 million cars
for unintended acceleration. Yet GMs has held
fairly steady so far, around 18 percent.
GM has cautioned that an ongoing compa-
nywide safety review could produce even more
recalls just Monday it recalled another 3.4 mil-
lion cars for a separate ignition switch issue so
consumers might still decide its smarter to buy
their wheels elsewhere.
But for now, experts say, GM has retained
buyers confidence by appearing to act quickly
on safety matters even though GMs internal
investigation into the small-car switch recall
showed that employees took years to realize they
had a safety problem on their hands.
Major retailers agree to
list unit prices online
NEW YORK (AP)
Shoppers can skip the math.
Its about to get easier to com-
pare prices on products from
breakfast cereals to toothpaste
at some of the nations major
online retailers.
New Yorks attorney gen-
eral said Tuesday that Costco,
CVS, FreshDirect, Wal-Mart
and Walgreen have agreed
to list unit prices on their
websites and mobile apps for
shoppers nationwide in the
coming months. Amazon.
com Inc., the worlds larg-
est online retailer, did not
agree to participate, accord-
ing to Attorney General Eric
T. Schneiderman.
A unit price tells consum-
ers how much a product costs
by each unit of weight. It
divides the full price of the
item by the size of its packag-
ing. For example, a 16-ounce
bottle of shampoo costing
$5.99 would have a unit
price of 37 cents per ounce.
Because the same product can
be sold in several different
sizes, a unit price is a better
way to compare whether a
giant bottle of shampoo is
really a good deal compared
to a smaller one.
Retailers already list unit
prices in stores, but theyre
harder to find online.
The New York Attorney
Generals office said that
19 states and the District of
Columbia have some type
of unit pricing requirement.
New York law requires that
large retail stores clearly dis-
play the price per unit of
measurement for most types
of food, cleaning and paper
products, toiletries, pet food
and over-the-counter medica-
tions. But prior to this initia-
tive, unit pricing information
online was rare. Among large
retailers, full availability of
unit pricing was limited to
online grocer Peapod.
As the Internet becomes
the shopping mall of the 21st
century, we need to ensure
that consumers have the same
robust protections online that
they do in brick-and-mortar
stores, said Schneiderman.
Amazon is about to
jump into smartphones
NEW YORK (AP) Amazon, a company of seemingly
boundless ambition, appears to be venturing into yet another
market: smartphones.
The corporate juggernaut that started out with books and
soon moved into music, video, cloud computing and Kindle
e-readers is hosting a launch event today in Seattle, and media
reports indicate the product will be an Amazon phone per-
haps one with multiple cameras that can produce 3-D photos.
Amazon declined to comment, but analysts said the goal is
almost certainly a device designed to get customers to buy more
things from Amazon. It might include an Amazon shopping app
or other features tied in tightly to the products the company sells.

Dear Abby
Free family caregivers kit
should be in every home
DEAR ABBY:
Helping a parent or
other adult relative
handle their finances
and health care can
be a challenging gift
to give. You want to
honor their wishes
and respect their
boundaries, while at
the same time acting
in their best interest.
But it can be hard
to know where to
begin and whom to
trust, and you always
wonder if youre
forgetting something.
To help your
readers carry out
this important role,
the Federal Citizen
Information Center
created the free
Family Caregivers
Kit. It features
publications from the
Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau
that explain how
to manage a loved
ones money and
protect seniors from
scams. And it also
contains publications
from the FDAs
Office of Womens
Health to keep track
of medications and
learn to use them
safely. The kit is full
of practical tips that
give caregivers the
confidence they need
to manage a loved
ones affairs.
Abby, thanks
for sharing the free
Family Caregivers
Kit. From one
daughter to another,
you know how
important it is to stand
up and support family
members through
lifes challenges.

CRANE, ACTING

FEDERAL CITIZEN
I NF ORMATI ON
CENTER
DEAR MS.
CRANE: Thank
you for offering
this important
information to
my readers. It is
important because
accepting this kind of
responsibility should
not be done without
fully understanding
what it will entail.
The publications
you sent to me --
and will send to my
readers -- provide
an illuminating
overview of the
r e s p o n s i b i l i t i e s
involved.
Readers, this
years packet is
not to be missed,
particularly if you
have aging relatives
or a friend who may
need you to handle
his/her affairs, even
for a short period of
time.
These booklets are
offered free of charge
and include the
Managing Someone
Elses Money series
of publications,
which cover Power
of Attorney and
Managing Trusts,
Property and
Benefits. They are
written in plain
English and are in an
easy-to-understand
format.
Also included is
a pamphlet on using
medications wisely.
Did you know that
125,000 people die
each year because
they didnt take
their medication
as directed -- and
many more get sick
because they didnt
properly follow the
directions on the
label? (I didnt.)
Another pamphlet
shares information
on recognizing and
avoiding health
scams, so you and
your loved ones can
watch out for miracle
devices and cures
that really ARE too
good to be true.
But wait! Theres
more ... You will also
receive a copy of
the 2014 Consumer
Action Handbook,
which contains not
only information
you need to make the
best decisions about
what you buy and the
service providers you
use, but also a sample
complaint letter to
help you get results.

kit, go to promotions.

You are so sensitive to the
needs of others that you could
get into fnancial trouble if you
are too giving. Lots of changes
are present, so make sure you
have the funds on hand to
follow your dreams. Invest in
you, not someone else.
GEMINI (May 21-June
20) -- Dont become lazy
in your work habits. Your
peers depend on you to do
your best. There are skilled
people willing to jump in and
take your place. Protect your
reputation.
CANCER (June 21-July
22) -- You should concentrate
on romantic and sentimental
issues. Its likely someone you
love feels the same way, so
make plans to do something
special. Self-improvement
projects will pay off.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
-- Consider remodeling or
redesigning your home. Check
out real estate in your region
to get a host of good ideas
that will help improve your
domestic scene.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.
22) -- Dont make any spur-
of-the-moment decisions.
Question the motives of
someone who is trying to talk
you into a controversial or
unproven investment. Protect
your assets.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct.
23) -- Let everyone know
about your innovative ideas.
Applying your creative talents
to your work will help you
outmaneuver any competition
you encounter. Put your best
foot forward.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-
Nov. 22) -- Invest in you.
Dont hesitate to seize an
opportunity. Get the ball
rolling and turn your dreams
into reality. Its up to you to
make things happen.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov.
23-Dec. 21) -- Dont wait until
its too late. If something isnt
going your way, deal with it
head-on. Youll feel much
better once you know you have
nothing to worry about.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-
Jan. 19) -- Listen to the voice
of experience. Your friends
and relatives want to help.
They have faith in your talents
and will do the best they can
on your behalf.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-
Feb. 19) -- You will gain a
lot of meaningful insight and
information if you listen to
an older or more experienced
friend or relative. Free your
head of distractions and offer
your undivided attention.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March
20) -- You may feel let down if
someone decides to do things
without you. Let him or her
have some space, and look for
an activity you can pursue on
your own.
ARIES (March 21-April
19) -- A little exploring could
lead you to discover what is
going on behind the scenes.
Someone will try to withhold
vital information regarding a
decision you need to make.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20) -- Dont let restlessness
lead to trouble. A good cure
for boredom is doing yard
work or home repairs. You can
avoid complaints if you take
care of responsibilities without
being asked.

TODAYS
SMILE
Jack Maag
It was time to have another
look at exactly what we were
doing with our in-state stan-
dards and making sure that the
average Ohioan is getting the
best bang for their buck, Hite
shared. That was the purpose
of this. Things have changed
since we set up those stan-
dards. We didnt know about
natural gas and the supply that
exists today. That has kind of
changed the game a little bit as
far as what does give the best
bang for your buck. Its a com-
petitive game and its a market
game and we have to look at it
and try to find out what is the
best we can do for Ohioans. So
to have a pause for a couple of
years is not a bad thing.
Both pieces of legislation
were recent considerations for
lawmakers in Columbus. It is
likely that protests by those
opposed to new and current
wind farms helped to inspire
both the setback changes and
the two-year halt on advancing
renewable-energy standards.
In April Iberdrola held a town
hall meeting at Lincolnview
High School in which some
vocal demonstrators sparred
with company representatives.
There was a lot of talk in
Van Wert County during the
primary that was very anti-
expansion of wind projects,
Hite noted. That discussion
became a part of our discus-
sion as well.
Sarah Smith, Van Wert
County economic develop-
ment director, who testified
earlier against the changes
and wrote Kasich to urge him
to use the line item veto to
omit the new setbacks, told the
Times Bulletin she believed
the anti-wind sentiment was
too strong and cost Van Wert
County a large investment.
Susan Munroe, CEO/pres-
ident of the Van Wert Area
Chamber of Commerce, also
testified in Columbus against
the two changes.
Its my belief that Iberdrola
could have dealt with (Senate
Bill) 310, although that still
provides legislative uncertain-
ty which sends up red flags
for companies like Iberdrola
who are ready to drop $200
million in this community
and understandably so, she
said. But the setback provi-
sion was the real project kill-
er, from my understanding.
Maybe there is a way to get
around that. I hope so because
our community has way too
much at stake when you look
at Lincolnview Schools being
able to reap another $600,000
for their school system each
year. With the impact of
decreased educational funding
out of Columbus, this is even
more important that we are
allowed to pursue these pri-
vate investment opportunities
to develop our economy with
no new taxes.
The new setbacks will
make any new wind farm dif-
ficult to design. Of the 150
turbines at Blue Creek Wind
Farm, only 12 would adhere
to the new law. But even with
the new setback distances in
force, Hite stated that property
owners could still proceed if a
waiver was signed.
If somebody wants to
waive that stipulation, they
may. (You would only lose
that many turbines) only if
nobody waives their rights,
Hite pointed out.
Every other entity that
involves setbacks uses that
to the property line except in
Ohio when we did the setback
rules for turbines. (Previously)
I was the one who did the
amendment that doubled the
size of the setbacks but that
still wasnt acceptable for
many, and definitely to those
who sponsored the amend-
ment that was put into (House
Bill) 483. They felt we needed
more setback to be consistent
with other law. Their motives
behind all that, you can discuss
with them.
Hite noted that Blue Creek
will be grandfathered in to
the new rules. Actually, any
wind farm approved by the
Ohio Power Siting Board cur-
rently qualifies to be built but
any changes to the specifics
of the development cannot be
changed without being brought
under the new measurements
for setbacks.
Hite concluded simply,
Im not as optimistic for new
projects as I was a year or two
ago.
This is an Ohio job killer,
pure and simple, wrote Mark
Goodwin, president of Apex
Clean Energy. With the set-
back requirement, he wrote,
Apex will have no choice but
to take its investment and its
business elsewhere. Given the
need to find new carbon-free
sources of electricity in Ohio,
we cannot imagine a worse
time to send wind energy com-
panies packing.
Whether Iberdrola comes to
the same conclusion remains
to be seen but its complaints
about the process makes their
position clear. In a company
statement, Iberdrola states,
The American wind industry
has generated major economic
benefits for Ohio, which ranks
first in the nation for the num-
ber of wind energy manufac-
turing facilities with more than
60 in the state. Yet there was
no opportunity for the regula-
tors at the Ohio Power Siting
Board, nor a single wind com-
pany operating or developing
in Ohio, to comment or pro-
vide testimony on this mat-
ter during its short one-week
consideration in the General
Assembly Gov. John Kasich
and the Legislature abandoned
$2.5 billion in current wind
energy projects, which now
face cancellation along with
jobs, leases, payments to local
governments, and orders for
factories, over a needlessly
restrictive setback requirement
that Kasich signed into law.
Council also passed an ordinance to pro-
vide 22 non-bargaining full-time employees with
additional sick leave time for the period of 2008
through November 2013 to conform with the
Ohio Revised Code. In this time frame, the accu-
mulated sick leave time had been calculated at a
rate lower than provided by the ORC; the adjust-
ment brings the compensation into compliance.
Additionally passed on final reading was
authorization for Mayor Michael Gallmeier and/
or Safety Services Director Shane Coleman to
enter into agreement with Lakeview Farms to
extend the current water and sewer rates to the
expanding entity at current rates for a period of
three years, and authorization for the administra-
tion to dispose of surplus assets, including one
car, one truck and miscellaneous items through
Gov.Deals, an online auction service.
Council read but could take no definitive
action to first- and second-reading legislation due
to a lack of quorum to the adoption of the 2015
city budget, contract with Stolly Insurance for
general property and liability insurance, establish-
ing a new fund for the parks income tax revenue,
a separation agreement for dispatchers from the
city as the dispatch service within the city comes
to a close, as well as proposed increases to cur-
rent water rates of five percent, and a 10-percent
increase in current sewer rates. These items will
be addressed at todays meeting. Time is of the
essence for the budget and insurance contract.
The budget needs to secure approval by July 7,
the present insurance contract expires June 30.
Councilman Mark Clement stated his intent
not to support the proposed water and sewer
increases, suggesting that the proposed increases
be cut in half, and further to extend to Bunge NA
a water rate deal similar to that just extended to
Lakeview Farms. Clement indicated the water
and sewer rates for Delphos customers have, in
his opinion, reached a critical limit with con-
cern that such additional rate increases will drive
residents and businesses out of town.
Council received positive news regarding the
proposed paving of East Second Street from
Main to Douglas streets. The project had an
estimated cost of $188,757 with 20 percent of the
cost shouldered by the city, the total low bid was
said to be $157,140, including ODOT-approved
striping. The low bidder for the project was not
announced and is expected to be revealed at the
first July council session.
Cook said they have devel-
oped a suspect on the back-
yard thefts.
We are fairly confident
we have the right individual
and that he knows we know
who he is, Cook said. The
thefts have stopped, for now.
Cook cautioned people out
walking at night need to use
the public sidewalks rather
than alleyways or they will
be stopped and questioned by
officers.
As discussed at the
June 2 meeting, Village
Administrator Sean Chapman
is continuing his work on the
Trail Project.
I removed all of the stakes
indicating the proposed loca-
tion of the trail and met with
Beth Seibert of the Allen
Soil & Water Conservation
District regarding a Storm
Water Pollution Prevention
Plan, which is required for
this project, as per the Ohio
Environmental Protection
Agency (OEPA), Chapman
reported.
Seibert stated that she
would be able and willing to
put a plan together at no cost
to the village.
This would otherwise cost
the village a few thousand
dollars if we had to hire a con-
sultant, he said.
In addition, Chapman
checked with Douglass
Degen of the Allen County
Engineers office to see if
there is any permitting needed
through his office.
Once I receive the com-
pleted plan from Beth, I will
complete all necessary paper-
work and applications and
submit to the OEPA for their
review and approval, he said.
Ohio Department of Natural
Resources (ODNR) will then
be able to begin the work.
Chapman gave his report
on the progression of the
Water Treatment Plant. The
interior block walls have been
completed and the top precast
slab has been delivered and
installed. All building door
frames have been installed,
the filter media has been
delivered and will be installed
into the nano-filters when they
are delivered this week. The
structural steel for the building
was completed last week and
the siding for the building is
close to complete.
As the building nears
completion, the HVAC and
electrical contractor will move
in and complete their portions
of the project, Chapman said.
The building will be secure
by the end of the week.
Chapman said the plant
start-up is still on schedule for
August/September and final-
izing the control mechanisms
will occur prior to start up.
He said many people have
asked how much the new
Water Treatment Plant is
going to cost them (raise their
bill) and he responded with
there will be no increase since
the debt service was covered
beginning in 2013.
During the May 19 village
council meeting, Chapman
and council members spoke
of the possible construction
of a sidewalk on East Fourth
Street which would extend to
the Dollar General store.
Recently, Chapman said
he was able to look at the
proposed sidewalk area lead-
ing up to Dollar General.
Although the project can be
completed, there are a few
concerns, including obtaining
Dollar Generals permission
to pour a sidewalk onto their
property; working with Dollar
General on cutting out exist-
ing curb for zero entry to
parking lot from sidewalk and
lowering the grade of the sur-
rounding ground leading up to
the curb cut and on relocation
of existing irrigation system
and there are sprinkler heads
along the back side of the
curb.
We may also need to
install a catch basin on the east
side of Hemmelgarns drive-
way and connect the outlet to
the existing storm sewer on
the same side of the road,
Chapman explained. This
may need to be completed
in order to promote positive
drainage.
The total cost of the con-
crete project is in the neighbor-
hood of $3,080 and includes
seven yards of concrete.
Chapman has contacted
Dollar General property own-
ers GBT Realty to dis-
cuss the proposed project in
the field and has sent them
a drawing of the proposed
work.
Additionally, Chapman
spoke of a $20,000 Storm
Water Plan which he will pro-
pose for 2015. He said he
would work with the Finance
Committee to check the feasi-
bility of implementation.
The next council meeting
will be held at 7 p.m. July 7 at
the Municipal building.
