Mehlville candidates debate governance, Gaines at forum By GLORIA LLOYD News Editor Governance, school security and Superintendent Chris Gaines were some of the topics debated in a forum last week by the three Mehlville Board of Education candidates running for two seats in the election Tuesday, April 3. With incumbents Lisa Dorsey and Jamey

Murphy leaving the board after a single term, none of the three candidates are incumbents. Former board President Ron Fedorchak is running against newcomers Tori Behlke and Lisa Messmer, who are running as a slate. Fedorchak served on the board from 2011

Affton man files suit against Affton fire district, seeks to not pay taxes By GLORIA LLOYD News Editor An Affton resident is suing the Affton Fire Protection District, alleging that it is unconstitutional that he has to pay taxes to the fire district while residents of the area annexed into Crestwood do not.

Bayless voters weigh two ballot measures

By GLORIA LLOYD News Editor Voters in the Bayless School District will weigh two ballot measures next week that the district promises will modernize its aging facilities and improve the quality of its education. The Board of Education placed a 41-cent tax-rate increase for operations on the ballot along with a $10 million bond issue funded by a 34-cent tax-rate increase. If approved, the operating tax rate of the district would increase to $4.97 for residential property and 87 cents for debt service.

By GLORIA LLOYD News Editor With Sunset Hills Ward 1 Alderman Richard Gau departing the Board of Aldermen after six years, two candidates are vying to replace him on the board. Ann McMunn and Joseph “Joe” Stewart III are running in the April 3 election to succeed Gau. Court Drive resident McMunn is best known for her advocacy against the commercialization of her neighborhood, and

Tapawingo resident Stewart currently serves on the Finance Committee. Neither has held public office. Asked to identify the most important issue in the race, the candidates responded: McMunn said, “Ensuring that residential areas are protected and residents feel represented in regard to commercial development and redevelopment.” Stewart said, “Enhance Planning and Zoning to make their pro(See SUNSET, Page 4A)

Chiefs: Ayouaz endorsements not from them By GLORIA LLOYD News Editor The Crestwood police and fire departments do not officially endorse candidates for office, despite a claim on a flier that Ward 4 aldermanic candidate Ismaine Ayouaz distributed before later correcting the wording. Ayouaz, who is challenging incumbent Ward 4 Alderman Tim Anderson for a three-year seat on the Board of Aldermen in the election Tuesday, April 3, circulated a flier that stated he was endorsed by the Crestwood Police Department and Crestwood Fire Department. But the endorsements had been made by the police and firefighters’ unions and not the official departments, the chiefs of both departments confirmed at the March 13 board meeting. Residents came to Anderson after seeing a flier from Ayouaz that said, “Ismaine endorsed by both police and firefighters!” “Recently in the course of my visiting with fellow residents of Ward 4, questions have come my way regarding the stance, if any, of both the police and fire departments with regard to favoring one candidate over another candidate for an aldermanic position,” Anderson said. “To make clear, I would like to ask the chief of police — does the Crestwood Police Department endorse candidates for elected office in the city of Crestwood?… And if someone was representing to the citizens of Ward 4 that the Police Department had endorsed him for the office of Ward 4 alderman, that would be untrue?” Chief Ron Compton confirmed that the Police Department does not endorse can-

didates for office, although the Crestwood Police Officers’ Association does. It is a police union separate from the city. “That in no way is part of the Police Department or an official statement from the Police Department,” Compton said, later adding, “The Police Department has not endorsed anybody and will not endorse anybody.” Fire Chief Dave Oliveri confirmed that the same was true for the Crestwood Fire Department. It does not endorse candidates for office, but its union does. During public comments, Ayouaz apologized for the confusion. “I would like to address the comment of Mr. Alderman Anderson,” Ayouaz said. “An honest mistake has been made in the fliers that I distributed. I was made aware of this mistake yesterday by one member of this board and the city administrator. The first thing I did right away is change the wording, and I posted a statement on social media that I want to read to you to make things clear — we are all human beings and we are making mistakes sometimes.” Reading from his social media statement, Ayouaz said, “An honest mistake was re-

encroachment of residential areas? McMunn said, “I am against commercial encroachment into residential areas in general. As with most things, there are two sides to the issue. Obviously, in some areas, the residents know that their neighboring property was commercial when they chose to build or buy on their lot, but the nature of commercial developments change over time. The board must respect the desires of adjacent neighbors by allowing only appropriate commercial development adjacent to our residential areas.” Stewart said, “I am sensitive to residents whose quiet enjoyment or property values could be negatively impacted by commercial development. It is important to recognize that commercially zoned property may be developed at some point. It is incumbent on the city to work with both residential property owners and commercial developers to address the concerns of all parties.” Should the Court Drive neighborhood bordering South Lindbergh Boulevard be residential or commercial? McMunn said, “The residents of Ward 1 and of Sunset Hills in general have spoken time and again on this issue. They desire the Court Drive neighborhood to remain residential. They have petitioned, displayed signs, attended meetings, workshops and community forums. “The Planning and Zoning Commission and the Board of Aldermen have voted unanimously to keep this area zoned residential. This was a private, thriving residential area before the tornado. New homes are being built on the property at this time and additional homes could readily be built on the property but for the ‘potential commercial developer’ holding these residential lots hostage. Enough is enough! “Regarding attached villas, I would not be opposed to considering villas that mirror those of the Courtyards on the opposite corner. However this developer has yet to produce one.” Stewart said, “See the response to the prior question. The economics of keeping all of the distressed lots bordering Court Drive and South Lindbergh Boulevard ‘single-family residential’ are questionable. Continued negotiation between the lot owners, adjacent homeowners and potential developers is the only way to a solution.” Should the city increase hotel heights? McMunn said, “I believe an adjustment should be made on a case-by-case basis. Some lots may be able to support a taller hotel without encroaching on the peaceful existence of nearby residents.” Stewart said, “Yes. As long as it does not impact any nearby residential areas.” Visit www.callnewspapers.com to read additional answers from the candidates.

•Affton Crestwood funding lawsuit protesting fire district taxes (Continued from Page 1A)

“No adequate justification or rational basis exists for the district to tax Schmoll’s residential real property differently than residential real property in the annexed area,” Schmoll’s attorneys allege in the lawsuit, which was filed in St. Louis County Circuit Court March 14. The fire district was served with the lawsuit last week. Crestwood is funding Schmoll’s legal fees for the lawsuit against his fire district as part of the broader legal fight against a state law that requires the city to pay the taxes to the Affton fire district that residents of the annexed area of Crestwood would otherwise have paid themselves, City Administrator Kris Simpson said. The city is seeking to strike down that law entirely, since it requires the city to pay around $500,000 to Affton annually, an amount that increases as taxes in Affton increase. The city got Schmoll involved in the lawsuit because he can raise claims that the city cannot raise as a government entity, according to a statement from the city attorneys. “As was the case in the Cole County lawsuit against the Affton Fire Protection District, since Mr. Schmoll’s claims are intertwined with the city’s, and his lawsuit will benefit the city, the city is paying the expenses associated with this lawsuit,”

the city said in a statement. “The city’s counsel has determined that Mr. Schmoll’s claims are best brought as a separate lawsuit through the tax protest procedures, though the remedy he seeks is similar to the city’s. The incremental increased costs associated with Schmoll’s separate lawsuit are expected to be minimal.” Affton Fire Chief Nick Fahs deferred comment on the lawsuit to the fire district’s attorney, Frank Vatterott. Crestwood and Affton will now have to face each other in court in two different counties, Vatterott noted. “Now we have to fight a lawsuit here and more money for the taxpayers of the Affton district,” he said. “The plaintiff here, Mr. Schmoll, he says that he pays the taxes but the residents of the Crestwood annexed area get the services for free, well, that’s not true at all.” Schmoll says in the lawsuit that he paid his 2017 taxes of $218 under protest. He hopes to get his taxes back since he believes that it is unconstitutional that he has to pay taxes while annexed Crestwood residents pay “zero,” which violates the Constitution’s equal protection clause. But the taxes of the Crestwood residents are paid by their city, Vatterott said. Crestwood originally lobbied SIZEstate OFofficials for the passage of the ballot measure AD(S) that the city is now suing to overturn. “We’re disappointed that the city would 1/4,3/16 want us to spend more taxpayer money to fight something that they pushed years ago,” Vatterott said.

Editorial Our Call

Call makes endorsements for next week’s elections South county voters next week will vote for aldermen in Crestwood and Sunset Hills and Lindbergh and Mehlville school board contests. As it has for 29 years, the Call offers the following endorsements for the Tuesday, April 3, election. Lindbergh school board Lindbergh voters will consider three candidates for two seats. Incumbent board President Karen Schuster and board Secretary Mike Shamia are running for re-election, and newcomer Eric Edward Thias is challenging them. Everyone running in Lindbergh this year is a Lindbergh native who has their heart in the right place and a desire to serve and improve the district they were raised in. Schuster is an easy endorsement because of her longtime service to the board, in an era when the district skyrocketed to the top of statewide academic rankings. This newspaper did not endorse Shamia when he first ran last year, but with a year of experience under his belt along with his financial acumen, we feel he’s done an admirable job on the board and will continue to do so. Our one concern with Shamia is that he is married to a Lindbergh teacher, which is an inherent conflict of interest when voting on budgets, teacher raises and other decisions that would directly impact his own household. The Call endorses Schuster and Shamia. Mehlville school board Three candidates are vying for two seats in Mehlville: Tori Behlke, Ron Fedorchak and Lisa Messmer. All three candidates in Mehlville are well-qualified to serve, and we believe voters can’t go wrong with any of them. Fedorchak, a former board president who oversaw Mehlville’s strategic turn under former Superintendent Norm Ridder, is obviously committed to serving on the school board and has the experience necessary to do it. We’ve chronicled over the years how Mehlville has stumbled due to inexperienced board members, but that wouldn’t be a problem with Fedorchak. He would also be a dissenting voice on a board that mostly agrees these days, and in that respect, a nice replacement for Jamey Murphy. Behlke gets our nod as a dedicated volunteer with children in the district who knows its history. But we hope Messmer will run again in the future if she isn’t elected this time around. We endorse Fedorchak and Behlke. (See ELECTIONS, Page 7A)

Crestwood Ward 3: Will the real Bill Boston please stand up? Will the real Bill Boston please stand up? If we were former Crestwood Ward 3 Alderman Boston, we might just say we have “no comment at this time” on what that means or why we’re endorsing his opponent, current Ward 3 Alderman Grant Mabie, over Boston. Why would we take the “no comment” route? Because that’s exactly what Boston did when he “answered” the Call’s candidate questionnaire this year. When it came to questions about the Crestwood mall redevelopment and the

Editorial Sunshine Law, Boston took a pass. That decision was all the more curious considering that when Boston previously defeated Mabie in 2013, he answered the Call’s questionnaire completely. Perhaps the answer lies in Boston’s flipflopping views on tax-increment financing. We simply don’t know what Boston’s views are today because he wouldn’t tell us. That means Crestwood voters won’t

know who they’re electing either. Is he the previous Bill Boston or the current one? The candidate adamantly opposed to TIF or the alderman who voted for it? This newspaper has not hesitated to criticize Mabie when it’s warranted, but we applaud him for his willingness to still sit down and answer questions from us. What a novel concept: A politician who wants to answer questions from the public and takes the time to do it. We wholeheartedly endorse Mabie, who has shown he will serve Crestwood well.

Former Mehlville board member supporting Fedorchak and Behlke To the editor: I hope that voters elect Ron Fedorchak and Tori Behlke to the Mehlville Board of Education in the Tuesday, April 3, election. Mr. Fedorchak is a former board president and helped guide the district through the selection of two superintendents. He has a degree in chemical engineering as well as an MBA. His educational background and extensive board experience will allow him to hit the ground running from day one. He is a staunch advocate of transparency in government, and will work diligently to make sure Mehlville’s large fund balances are used to improve student achievement and increase security. Mrs. Behlke has a degree in child development and has been an active parent, both at her kids’ schools and at the district level. The countless hours she dedicated to leadership roles, including

PTO president and fundraising events, benefited all students at her kids’ schools. She is personable, approachable and willing to listen to constituents. Having known both Mr. Fedorchak and Mrs. Behlke for many years, I can say with confidence that they would not hesitate to challenge the administration when required. The Mehlville School District is losing two dedicated, experienced board members in Dr. Lisa Dorsey and Jamey Murphy, who have decided not to seek re-election. I thank them for their service and urge voters to elect Ron Fedorchak and Tori Behlke. Venki Palamand Oakville

Editor’s note: Mr. Palamand is a former Mehlville Board of Education president.

County Council should only be concerned with efficiency, not quotas To the editor: I’m writing in response to the March 8 article “Council eyes quotas for minority contractors on county contracts,” which discussed the County Council’s possible plan to institute quotas or percentages of minority contractors. What concerns taxpayers is that public funds are spent efficiently and effectively.

A purchase that is effective is of little benefit if it has an exorbitant cost. Look at the county Board of Election Commissioners fiasco. The County Council needs to focus on that process and remedy that before they do the new project.

• Chiefs Ayouaz endorsement from unions, not departments (Continued from Page 3A)

cently made in fliers distributed in a small percentage of Crestwood Ward 4 residents. “So to avoid any confusion and issues, I want to clarify: I am not endorsed by the Crestwood police and fire departments as city entities. “I am endorsed by the Crestwood Police Officers’ Association, which represents 18 union members out of our 27 people, and the Crestwood Professional Firefighters,

which only represents the union firefighters but not the secretary, the four captains, assistant chief or chief.” At the meeting, Ayouaz continued, “I apologize for this honest mistake made, which was really an oversight on my part…. And I want to tell you Mr. Alderman Anderson, I understand where you’re coming from. But I’m very disappointed that you didn’t reach out to me to talk to me and I could have told you directly in person, on the phone or send me an email.” Mayor Gregg Roby said Anderson could respond if the discussion stayed civil.

“The flier that is in question says, ‘Ismaine endorsed by both the official Police and Fire departments, exclamation point,’ read the official letters. This doesn’t sound like a mistake to me,” Anderson said. “Furthermore, this document was never provided to me for any comment before it was handed out to the citizens of Crestwood. “It’s out there, it’s like toothpaste out of the tube, the representation is there and I suppose there’s nothing we can do about it. “But it’s certainly not something that promotes good government.”

Crestwood Ward 4 In Crestwood, Ward 4 Alderman Timothy Anderson is being challenged by current Economic Development Commission member Ismaine Ayouaz. Readers may remember Ayouaz, who filed to run two years ago after announcing in a press release that he didn’t qualify to file because he had not been registered to vote in the city long enough. The city allowed him to file, but the Board of Aldermen was prepared not to seat him if he won. He came in second. We feel there’s no need to revisit that history in detail. Anyone who wants to know more can visit our online archives at callnewspapers.com. The irony is not lost on us that the candidate who by his own admission filed when he was not legally allowed to run, Ayouaz, is the one endorsed by the Crestwood Police Officers’ Association. Just last week, Ayouaz made another misstep when he sent out fliers claiming he was endorsed by the Crestwood Police Department and Crestwood Fire Department. Neither endorse candidates. He was endorsed by their unions instead.

Anderson has represented the city well, and his perspective as an attorney is helpful and needed at a time when the city is spending so much on legal fees. Anderson has what it takes to continue representing Crestwood. The Call endorses Anderson. Sunset Hills Ward 1 In Sunset Hills Ward 1, two fine candidates have stepped up to serve their fellow citizens. The city would be well-served by either. Tapawingo resident Joe Stewart, who has served on the Finance Committee since 2015 and runs a bank, has the financial expertise needed to run a city. Court Drive resident Ann McMunn has long been at the center of the movement in Sunset Hills to prevent the encroachment of commercial development into residential areas. But in this race, we give the nod to McMunn, who seems to represent the majority of city residents’ views toward the potential commercialization of Court Drive — an issue so important to current city officials that they are defending a lawsuit from the developer who wants to build there, Dr. George Despotis of Des Peres. Stewart would serve well if elected, but we feel he leaves the door open on the possibility of commercialization in that area. The Call endorses McMunn.

Shamia, 47, 10552 Gregory Court, is the vice president of fixed income and mutual fund trading at Scottrade. He and his wife, Meighan, have three children who attend Lindbergh Schools. He is running for re-election because “I remain focused on making decisions in the best interest of our students, whether academic or financial. “I look to continue building on progress from the past year, including fostering positive teacher/staff relations, hiring of a highly qualified superintendent, planning for building needs including an additional elementary space and modernized high school and budgeting to best meet the needs of our student population. I promise to continue bringing a collaborative, results-driven approach to the board that serves our district well.” Thias, 58, 10560 Hackberry Drive, 63128, is self-employed. He is seeking office, among other reasons, because of “public concerns, budget matters, educational thoughts and processes of leaders and paid directors.” The candidates gave the following responses to a Call questionnaire: Are you satisfied with the leadership of Superintendent Jim Simpson? Schuster said, “Yes, I believe Dr. Simpson has led our district to new heights during his tenure. Despite that success, as a board member I have encouraged Dr. Simpson to continue learning and growing. I will expect the same of Dr. (Tony) Lake.” Shamia said, “The district has been award-winning, maintained its fiscal responsibility, and experienced a great deal of growth and construction. Jim should be recognized for his accomplishments. I will wish him well in retirement.” Thias said, “I’m willing and hopefully able to keep totally positive on all administrative leaders there to serve and assist the educational mission, as long as they don’t start asking for across-the-board 10-percent raises/more perks. “Jim Simpson set a very positive tone and carries forth encouragement by voicing it to those he directs so that they become encouragement to others, especially students.” Would you support a tax-rate increase to fund teachers’ salaries? Schuster said, “Yes, I would support a tax-rate (increase) if it is determined that additional operating revenue is needed and our community identifies this as a priority to providing a quality education to students.” Shamia said, “There are funding needs in the district to further support our growth and maintain the level of excellence. I will evaluate all possible solutions to address this issue. The Lindbergh school system continues to be a value for residents living within the district. “Our children benefit from the awardwinning education which helps support and sustain property values. We will need to look at all possible solutions to determine what is best for our students, school district and community while maintaining our board’s fiscally responsible approach.

“Teachers need to be valued and are paramount to academic excellence and student success.” Thias said, “I haven’t caused any weakness or had such a vote. Don’t have deficit Eric Thias spending to begin with.” Should the district deficit-spend for recurring expenses like salary increases? Schuster said, “No.” Shamia said, “No, I do not believe the district should deficit-spend for operating expenses. The board has maintained a track record of fiscal responsibility and would expect that to continue.” Thias said, “Probably never.” Do you have any family members employed by Lindbergh Schools? Schuster said, “No.” Shamia said, “My wife, Meighan, is employed as a reading specialist at Dressel Elementary School.” Thias said, “No.” Do you agree with the decision of district teachers to work to contract last school year? Schuster said, “No, I would have preferred to open dialogue to reach a resolution.” Shamia said, “I know this was an agonizing, difficult decision for the teachers. The Blue Ribbon awards and high level of student academic achievement are a direct result of a student faculty that cares deeply about their profession.” Thias said, “Not fully.” How did you vote on the district’s Proposition G in April 2014? Schuster said, “I voted yes.” Shamia said, “Yes.” Thias said, “I was, as other similarly situated residents, very positive toward the lead committee of proponents and this advancement for the schools, physical improvements and some upgrades, needed intensely at the time. I voted in the affirmative, and was surprised when (Prop G committee head Dave Reinhardt) placed third in the next school board election.” How did you vote on the district’s Proposition L in November 2010? Schuster said, “I voted yes.” Shamia said, “Yes.” Thias said, “As much happened personally in my immediate family and some related health issues and travel stress, I remember little of the lead-up to that particular fall election (medium/long ballot) and it may have been one of very few elections I might not have had participation in (overall less than half a dozen).” Visit www.callnewspapers.com to read additional answers from the candidates and read an article on the district forum.

By BILL MILLIGAN For the Call Making up appetizing desserts is so easy it’s a wonder everyone isn’t vegetarian. This recipe came about one day after sitting down to create a vegetarian recipe and discovering a mental block when it came to meatless dishes. I willed myself to get creative as a means of overcoming my stalled imagination. The syrup used in this fruit salad can be used in any way imaginable. I took it from an idea I had for mixing drinks, but it can also be used to sweeten iced tea and to keep any type of fresh fruit bowl from oxidizing and turning brown.

Fruit in Apple Syrup

Syrup: 2 cups apple juice Zest of one lemon 1/4 vanilla bean, halved lengthwise Fruit salad: 2 mangoes peeled, diced 1 pint strawberries 1 pint blueberries 1 pear, cubed

This is the easiest vegetarian dish I have ever come up with. To make vanilla-apple syrup, place apple juice and lemon zest in a medium saucepan. Slice vanilla bean in half lengthwise and scrape seeds into the juice. Add vanilla bean seeds to pan and bring to a boil. Stir to combine flavors. Reduce heat to medium low and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. When syrup is reduced to 1/3 cup, remove any zest you can latch onto along with the vanilla bean and cool to room temperature. To make the fruit salad, chop the mangoes into spoon-sized chunks. Give your strawberries the same treatment and then add the blueberries, mangoes and strawberries to a bowl large enough to hold them and add the syrup. For most of my life, I’ve always thought fruit didn’t need sweetening. But this makes for a delicious dessert for weeknight feasts.

Pet Oxygen Delivery Devices

MFPD - Protecting life and property no matter how small or furry

Although generally in a structure fire dogs and cats find their way out of a house, Mehlville Fire Protection District keeps pet oxygen delivery devices in the Deputy Chief’s command vehicle and on many of the pumpers. MFPD has equipped firefighters with these devices for almost four years. In 2014, Marilyn Zimmerman generously donated eight Wag’N 02 Fur Life Oxygen Masks to the District.

Pets can be overcome by smoke in the same way as humans. When a pet cannot get out of a smoke filled area or if they are kenneled, a pet will suffer smoke inhalation. The pet respirator or oxygen delivery device may help with the pet’s recovery. The life-saving apparatus is designed with animal muzzles in mind. The pet inhalator is actually not an inhalator at all but a plastic mask equipped with tubing that is connected

to an oxygen cylinder. A pet that has lost consciousness, but is still breathing, can be helped by this device. The masks are washable and reusable and come in three different sizes. House fires are always devastating but losing a pet family member compounds the devastation. Although pets are very important to us, always remember once you are outside of a structure on fire, STAY OUT. DO NOT go back inside for any reason.

Tornado Safety A tornado is a violently rotating column of air extending from the base of a thunderstorm down to the ground. Tornadoes are capable of completely destroying well-made structures, uprooting trees, and hurling objects through the air like deadly missiles. Tornadoes can occur at any time of day or night and at any time of the year. Although tornadoes are most common in the Central Plains and the southeastern United States, they have been reported in all 50 states. Before and during a Tornado, acting quickly is key to staying safe and minimizing impacts. 

• Stay Weather-Ready: Continue to listen to local news or a NOAA Weather Radio to stay updated about tornado watches and warnings.  • At Your House: If you are in a tornado warning, go to your basement, safe room, or an interior room away from windows. Don’t forget pets if time allows.  • At Your Workplace or School: Follow your tornado drill and proceed to your tornado shelter location quickly and calmly. Stay away from windows and do not go to large open rooms such as cafeterias, gymnasiums, or auditoriums.

• Outside: Seek shelter inside a sturdy building immediately if a tornado is approaching. Sheds and storage facilities are not safe.  • In a vehicle: Being in a vehicle during a tornado is not safe. The best course of action is to drive to the closest shelter. If you are unable to make it to a safe shelter, either get down in your car and cover your head, or abandon your car and seek shelter in a low lying area such as a ditch or ravine.

• Practice Your Plan: Conduct a family severe thunderstorm drill regularly so everyone knows what to do if a tornado is approaching. Make sure all members of your family know to go there when tornado warnings are issued.

For rental, sales or repair of commercial and homeowner lawn equipment check out Common Cents Rental. Customers can rent a wide range of lawn and power equipment, including air tools, aerators, skids, pallet forks, backhoes, concrete tools, flooring tools, chain saws, welders and drain snakes. The company also offers delivery of some equipment. It also carries major equipment brands, including Echo, Fisher Snow Plows, Giant-Vac, Husqvarna, Redmax, Scag, Shindaiwa, Tanaka and Toro. The store serves customers in all seasons. It sells seed and fertilizer in warm months and road salt in the colder months. Common Cents opened in October 2009, when Bryan Ficken was working for another rental company, whose owner decided to retire. “So we pulled our resources together and came up with Common Cents Rental,” said Jennifer Ficken, who owns the business with her husband Bryan.

Since opening, both the business and the industry have grown leaps and bounds. “Rental is its own growing ever-popular industry,” Ficken said. “We are looking to continue growing our skidsteer and backhoe/excavator fleets. Two years ago, we took on Scag for its walk-behind mower to keep up with high demand for a reliable walk-behind mower.” It may be winter, but Common Cents Rental’s SSpring Service Special is well underway. The special offers discounts on service for all types of mowers and free pickup and delivery within 15 miles. The couple’s daughters are starting to work more at the store, following in their parents’ footsteps. Jennifer Ficken loves helping customers get the best bang for their buck and in “just helping them.” Customers, in turn, say they love the family atmosphere and the staff’s honesty and realistic prices.

Local Manufacturer Celebrates Over 70 Years!

Quality Since 1947

There is an old saying: “Necessity is the mother of invention”... In 1947, Leonard Fred Detmer decided to build a concrete block wall at his home in Lemay. When he discovered a six month waiting list, he decided to make his own with a hand crank cement mixer and a block mold. People driving by saw the concrete blocks in the yard and stopped to inquire about purchasing them. He sold the blocks as fast as he could make them. Leonard was never able to build his wall but did start his own company, Lemay Concrete Block. 70+ years later his family is proud to carry on his creation, expanding in both size and products manufactured on site. Lemay Concrete Block offers ready mix concrete, masonry block, retaining walls

and pavers. In recent years they have added outdoor living kits such as fireplaces, bars and firepits. Pizza ovens are a new addition to their line of products manufactured on site. “Whether it’s pouring ready mix concrete, building a retaining wall or creating an outdoor living area; helping home owners to become do-it-yourselfers is the most rewarding part of each day.” For information on your next outdoor project, visit their large indoor showroom located just a mile from the River Des Peres at 326 E.

Family Owned & Operated Since 1976 In 1971, Hoppy Huelsman was an apprentice for Jaccards Jewelers in downtown St. Louis. The repair department was closed, so after a few years of working other jobs full-time and working a bench out of his flat in south St. Louis, he opened Huelsman’s Jewelers in November of 1976. He did work for many of the chain stores; Venture, Stix, Baer & Fuller and independent smaller jewelry stores. Sue, his wife, joined Hoppy in 1978. After a few years, their clientele grew so much it outpaced the work from other stores. In 1990, they moved to a larger suite in the Paul Brown Building. March of 1996, the building was sold to rehab lofts and they had six months to relocate.

Ryan, Hoppy and Sue Huelsman

Hoppy Huelsman

They found a new location in Sunset Village Shops on South Lindbergh in Sunset Hills. Huelsman’s has been a family owned and operated business for more than 40 years. Hoppy and Sue’s son, Ryan, joined them full-time in the summer of 1996. Ryan has had a special art of taking things apart and putting them back together since age 5. He is talented in design and has learned his goldsmith talent from his father. All work is done in the store expect watch repair, engraving and casting. The Huelsman family takes great pride in their work and in the integrity of every piece that is created. They like their shop to feel comfortable and not intimidating. Their customers are important to them. They find it especially gratifying to now see third generations come through the door.

Family Owned Business Celebrates 32 Years!

Daniel S Fowler

Dan looks forward to serving his community for many years to come

Daniel S Fowler started his career as a scratch agent for American Family Insurance in 1976 at the young age of 23. After serving more than 42 years as an agent, today his agency is still striving to serve his community with great service. Dan graduated from the University of Missouri-St. Louis in 1976 with a Bachelor of Science degree in administration of justice. That same year, he married his wife, Sandy. They have four children: Justin, Julie, Jenny and Janell. In 1989, he successfully ran for the Mehlville Board of Education and was reelected two more times, serving nine years before stepping down. The board elected him president in 1992 and 1997. He held officer positions during six of his nine years on the school board. As board president in 1992, Dan helped to lead the effort to pass a $29.5 million bond issue that improved the school district’s facilities and added a new elementary school. As board president in SIZE OF ISSUE RUN 1998, he also helped to lead a campaign to pass a tax rate increase that enabled teachers’ salaries to AD(S) DATE: remain competitive with neighboring districts. After leaving the school board, Dan wrote numerous16th columns for Call Newspapers. In lateWC 1999, 3/29/18 Dan undertook his biggest community challenge to date, chairing a public engagement process to assess the facility needs of the Mehlville School District. After a six-month process that included more than three thousand participants, the Citizens’ Advisory Committee for Facilities recommended a $70 million bond issue be submitted to the voters. Dan also served as chairman of the successful campaign committee, Citizens to Protect Our Investment. In 2007 Dan was appointed by the Board of Education to Co-Chair COMPASS (Charting the Oakville-Mehlville Path to Successful Schools). Part of the COMPASS recommendations was to transfer tax monies from the capital fund to the operational fund to stabilize the budget. In November 2008, voters approved this recommendation. In 2015, Dan became part of a leadership group that led and passed Prop R, a .49 cent tax increase to help fund millions of dollars that had been cut out of the school district budget over many years. These funds will help make Mehlville School District a place of destination. In 2015 the Board of Education voted to honor Dan by naming its board room the Daniel S. Fowler Board of Education Room. Dan published his first book, “Ten Steps to Success,” in 2006. He is committed to sharing with others what he has learned about what it takes to be successful as an insurance agent and views it as a part of his legacy. His second book, “Ten Steps to Energizing Your Business and Your Life,” was published in September 2009. During his 42-plus-year career, Dan has earned dozens of awards from his company and district as one of their top agents. He holds the full Life Championship Ring for excellence in life production, and also the Elite Life Diamond Watch. In 2004, Daniel was inducted into American Family’s All American Hall of Fame for qualifying for 25 consecutive conventions. In 2018, Dan qualified for his 39th consecutive All American Convention. Dan loves spending time with family and his nine grandchildren, Nellie, Natalie, John III, Gracie, Peyton, Jack, Dylan, Kellen and Julia. He enjoys reading, walking and working out in the yard. Do not be surprised to pass his house and see him sitting out on his driveway talking with neighbors.

Lindbergh teachers, officials agree on a step raise this year

By GLORIA LLOYD News Editor The Lindbergh Schools teachers’ union and the administration agreed on a raise this year, avoiding the strife of two years ago during Superintendent Jim Simpson’s last year as superintendent. This year’s proposal to grant teachers a 3.1-percent step increase was set to be considered by the Lindbergh Board of Education Tuesday night — after the Call went to press.

Based on where teachers fall in the salary schedule, some teachers will see less of an increase and some teachers will see more, but the average raise will be 3.1 percent. Every teacher will receive a step increase, except those who are at the top of the salary schedule and cannot move up. The raise is the “result of positive collaboration between teacher representatives and administrators this year,” the district said in advance of the vote. (See RAISE, Page 9A)

Sunset Hills panel OKs higher height limit aimed at Days Inn By GLORIA LLOYD News Editor A new hotel set to replace the Days Inn in Sunset Hills could be five stories tall if new city height limits gain approval. The city currently has a height limit of 35 feet, which hotel owners have told the city is detrimental if they try to modernize their hotels with newer buildings or better brands. The thinking is that new hotels want to build up rather than out, with hotel patrons entering their rooms from inside the hotel rather (See HEIGHT, Page 19A)

The Mosaic Minds Robotics Club at Mosaic Elementary, the school of innovation in the Mehlville School District, competed against high-schoolers in the Boeing Engineering Glider Challenge at Washington University last week. The team, comprised of third- and fourth-graders, was the only elementary team participating against one middle school and 83 high schools. The challenge was building a glider and seeing how far it can fly. “Most of the teams were high-school students,” the district said. “They were really impressed how skilled the Mosaic students are.”

Nearly two dozen people attended an event at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery last week to remember the Union’s 56th Regiment of the Colored Infantry, who are buried at the cemetery. The 175 men died of cholera in 1866 on “Quarantine Island” near Oakville’s Robert Koch Hospital. They were the focus of a May 5 event sponsored by the Sons of Union Veterans in remembrance of their sacrifice in honor of their country. The men had enlisted in the Union Army and were traveling to Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, to muster out of the army when cholera swept the steamboat Continental, making them too ill to continue their journey home.

Quarantine Island was located in the Mississippi River, near the current location of the western pier of the Jefferson Barracks Bridge. Aside from New York’s Ellis Island, it was the most common point of arrival for individuals emigrating from Europe to the United States. The men of the 56th Regiment came into contact with cholera aboard the Continental, which was bound for Fort Leavenworth. When many of them became too ill to travel, they were forced to stop at Quarantine Island. Thanks to modern sewage and water treatment, cholera is unheard of today in the United States. The last recorded outbreak in the U.S. occurred in 1911. But there were few options for treatment in 1866. (See INFANTRY, Page 19A)

• Trail ‘It was hard,’ Great Rivers Greenway says about trail (Continued from Page 1A)

the Mississippi Greenway, also hosted a Community Day celebration Sunday to kick off the new trail. With the existing five miles of trails, the park now has seven miles of walking paths. Notably absent from all the festivities was 6th District Councilman Ernie Trakas, R-Oakville, who was invited by GRG. He blocked the trail’s construction last year and pushed for a pedestrian bridge over Telegraph Road to the new trail entrance. The trail was built despite a lawsuit filed by neighbors. In Stenger’s remarks at the ribbon-cutting ceremony, he emphasized the importance of working together as a team. “It was challenging in the beginning,” Stenger said. “But when you look at the breadth and the scope of this project and you just look at this tremendous view, it’s easy to see how we were able to move this forward and be here today.” Trautman later added, “It was hard – it was hard.” The project added bathrooms and a new parking lot at Cliff Cave Road and New England Town, in addition to the existing lot at the end of Cliff Cave Road, plus a pedestrian-only entrance at Telegraph Road. The new parking lot is 0.2 miles from the Mississippi River overlook and 0.5 miles from the trail to Telegraph Road, the same distance as the older parking lot. The trail to Telegraph is about 1 mile, and the distance from the overlook to the cave is about 0.4 mile. The two shorter 0.5-mile legs meet the longer Telegraph leg at a 210-foot pedestrian bridge crossing Cliff Cave Road. It is one of the largest single-span pedestrian bridges in the county. The Telegraph entrance will allow neighbors to access the trail without having to drive to the main park entrance on Cliff Cave Road. GRG downsized the Telegraph entrance from its original plans so that people would not mistake the new entrance for the trailhead and drive there expecting to find a place to park. The entrance will not have any parking. Considering the scope of directly linking Telegraph Road with a trail to bike or walk along the Mississippi River and the fact that the money for the trail came from Great Rivers Greenway instead of the county, Stenger said, “Aren’t we fortunate?... We hope you enjoy it for many years to come.” The regional trail system being built by GRG will “rival any in the country,” the county executive added. Great Rivers Greenway builds its trails to last decades, Trautman said. The Telegraph extension’s asphalt is set on top of four inches of gravel. The existing unpaved trails at Cliff Cave and mountain-biking network are still there for those who want to use them, but more people will be able to enjoy the park than in the past, Trautman said. “Any time we lay a trail, people are on it.

Call Publishing, Thursday, May 10, 2018 - Page 5A They just enjoy,” she said. “You wouldn’t have been able to be here (next to the cave) unless you were a mountain biker.” The new paths also open up the park to people with mobility issues, bicycles and children in strollers. “The new trails will allow access to everybody – you notice the grade coming down here,” county Parks Director Gary Bess said. “I’m kind of a fat guy. I can walk up and down this, it’s OK. But it also allows our friends that don’t have the mobility that we do, in wheelchairs or walkers, for example, to come down here and enjoy this beautiful view.” The trail was built by an Oakville-based contractor, Ideal Landscape, owned by Oakville resident Dave Buckel. Trautman brought him up as she spoke at the ribbon-cutting. Stenger hugged him. “I don’t usually do this, but is Dave Buckel in the crowd?” Trautman said. “We don’t usually call the contractors out, but here is a man who had challenges here in every way. So I just want to thank you personally. From the geology to the politics to the massive effort it took to build a project like this, it’s stunningly beautiful, and Ideal Landscape did an amazing job.” Contractors ran into issues building the many steep retaining walls required for the switchbacks to keep the grade up the bluffs at 2 percent, Trautman said. The ground in the park was more challenging than a typical project because it is karst and riddled with sinkholes. At one of the early public meetings on the project held at Oakville High School in 2016, a planner said that visitors to the overlook on the bluffs would be able to see Kentucky on a clear day. Trautman said she’s not so sure, but what visitors can see is beautiful. “I don’t know about Kentucky, but you can see a lot of Illinois,” she said. Trakas pushed for a safety study to look at whether the project needed a pedestrian bridge over Telegraph Road to keep bikers and walkers out of the way of traffic at the intersection of Telegraph and Erb roads below. The safety study found that the crossing would be safe, and the original plan was built without a bridge. But with an influx of parents with strollers trying to cross at Telegraph, some residents have questioned the study’s findings. “I understand and appreciate people’s concerns, but we’ve done a lot of work in these areas and if you look at Grant’s Trail, for instance, it has a dozen crossings over roads bigger than or equal to Telegraph,” Trautman said. “If we thought it was an unsafe crossing, we would have done it differently.” The Telegraph entrance has no sidewalk linking with other sidewalks in the area because it is surrounded on both sides by private property, Trautman said. Most people who enter the park will be crossing from Erb Road. “What this really does is allow the neighborhoods on the other side to connect into the park and not have to get in a car to drive there,” she said. Editor’s note: In a future issue, the Call will look back at the neighbors’ lawsuit.

By Carl Hendrickson

In appreciation for all our mothers, past and present

Unassuming. Unselfish. Underappreciated! These words described my mother. Perhaps they also describe yours, or perhaps they describe you. It is not until we reach adulthood that we truly appreciate all that our mother has given us or done for us, and how unselfishly she labored to make us the man or woman that we became. When Erma Bombeck’s nowfamous article, “When God Created Mothers,” first appeared in her column in 1974, I was an adult and married to a mother. Yes, I had finally come to appreciate up close the burdens undertaken by a mother to raise a child. When God created mothers, He was into His sixth day of “overtime.” An angel came to inspect the creation. The angel bent and ran her fingers across the cheek of the creation. “There’s a leak,” she pronounced. God explained that it was not a leak but a tear. When the angel inquired what the tear was for, God said that the tear was for “joy, sadness, disappointment, pain, loneliness and pride.” “You are a genius,” the angel said. God replied, “I didn’t put it there.” This column is for my deceased mother, my wife, and all the other mothers who have shed many a tear of joy, of sadness, of disappointment, of pain, of loneliness and of pride. Thank you. Hopefully your child or children have come to appreciate all that you have done as a mother. But a mother does more than shed tears for us. She often is the bedrock of the family, providing advice as needed. My mother, by word and action, showed that the greatest pleasures in life are the friends we accumulate and the memories of the time spent with them. Our friends hang like companion stars around us, giving us direction. Friends are those relations we chose for ourselves. It is to our friends that we run when we have something to celebrate and fall back upon them when feeling ill-used. As my mother said, a friend stands by you in prosperity, poverty, health and sickness. When others desert you, a friend remains by your side. Thank you, Mother, for this priceless lesson in life, for your advice on true friendship, for showing that it is infinite and priceless. Thank you for the advice to search for friends and not gold or silver. It is a lesson I have taken to heart.

A Lindbergh High student responds to presence of guns in schools To the editor: In response to the April 19 letters of both Jim Stinebaker and Jim Kohnen, I invite them to consider attending a school where it is proudly displayed that a teacher carries a firearm. As a student of Lindbergh High School, I would be immensely worried, as that person — with or without an outside threat — has just become dangerous, and in most cases, lethal.

To protect students, we need to establish a way to keep guns out of school, period. A device created for the sole purpose of killing someone has no place in a learning enviroment filled with the future generation.

Alice Clauss Concord Lindbergh High School sophomore

Resident thinks Crestwood Board of Aldermen is ‘on track’ with mall To the editor: I would like to first of all give a big thank you and congratulations to Mayor Gregg Roby and the Board of Aldermen of Crestwood. At first, I had some hesitation on their recent decisions regarding the status of the former Crestwood mall. Many have made fun of the big pile of dirt in place of what was once a thriving center of commerce. Since the mall’s closing, the tax revenue of Crestwood has dropped along with many public services. But after giving some thought, I now understand the true insight and vision of our city leaders.

Big cheers to our city’s government for converting the space to a cross-country racing course. It looks like just a pile of dirt now, but soon we will see motorcycles, four-wheelers and big trucks racing over and around the hills. I look forward to seeing their big jumps and aerial acrobatics. This looks to be a big source of tax revenue that will truly benefit our citizens. Next time you look at that big pile of dirt, you now should have a better understanding of the wisdom we credit our civic leaders. James Bubash Crestwood

Mayor should be ‘honored’ on new Crestwood logo, writer suggests To the editor: I’ve seen the two proposed new logos for the city of Crestwood and they’re nice, but I feel they miss the point. We should recognize the role Mayor Gregg Roby has played in making Crestwood what it is today and will be in the near future. I would suggest the new city logo include an image of Mayor

Roby flanked on one side by a huge pile of dirt and on the other side by two immense storage tanks of human waste. This looks to be a big source of tax revenue that will truly benefit our citizens. Dale Taylor Crestwood

Another reader votes for ‘Crestwood Mall, where four-wheelers are’ To the editor: Alert the media. Contact the Lindbergh marching band. Hire Monster Truck Bigfoot to dedicate the new Crestwood Court AllTerrain Park.

Four-wheelers, all-terrain vehicles and dirt bikes could all have fun on the 40-plus acres. It’s a one-of-a-kind destination. Joe Ebl Crestwood

Reader says yes to full-day kindergarten, no to TIF stance and taxes To the editor: If Lindbergh Schools’ initiative against tax-increment financing, or TIF, succeeds, it hands district officials a veto impacting regional economic development. Their initiative has larger implications impacting the community. It’s about “their” revenue. More like our revenue. Apparently Lindbergh financed its administrative center using U.S. Bank certificates of participation. The 20-year cost to build their shiny new administration building? About $10 million. Superintendent Jim Simpson loves his new office. Glad he won’t occupy it longer. Certificates of participation could fund classrooms. Clearly that isn’t a district priority. And to continue laying approxi-

mately $1 million per year upon families for full-day kindergarten. Never mind those who can’t afford the tuition. Full-day kindergarten tuition is a yearly negative economic impact. Cars not bought. Property enhancements delayed. Kindergarten tuition impacts the community no less than a tax increase. The district’s opposition to the Crestwood mall project and their campaign against TIF negatively impacts the community. Whether you agree or disagree with TIF, it’s a tool long used for economic growth. The Board of Education’s TIF opposition potentially negatively impacts the region. It’s too much power for any single taxing entity. Other tax entities will board the anti-TIF train. The board also telegraphs its intent for

a tax increase. I support school tax initiatives. With Lindbergh I’m not sure. I’m paying $7,000 for twins attending full-day kindergarten. Lindbergh is the only district of Missouri’s 500 school districts charging kindergarten tuition. They aren’t receptive, nor do they seem progressive enough to investigate how they can change this. Instead, they point to issues like TIF and the mall project. The district isn’t transparent about spending and needs. They want to use all of the above to justify new taxes just a few years after the public handed them one. As an ardent supporter, I’m poised to say no. Steven Crawford Crestwood

Mehlville moves graduation to Chaifetz By GLORIA LLOYD News Editor The Mehlville School District is trying a new location for its graduation ceremonies next year. The Board of Education last month unanimously approved switching the location of 2019 graduation ceremonies for Oakville and Mehlville high schools to the Chaifetz Arena on the St. Louis University campus in downtown St. Louis, instead of the Family Arena in St. Charles. The district has been “very, very happy” with the Family Arena for about 14 years, but Chaifetz is significantly less expensive, Assistant Superintendent Jeff Bresler said at the April 25 meeting. Chaifetz will cost $15,578 as a base fee, while the Family Arena would cost $28,000 just for rental. Parking adds $4,000 to the Family Arena total, while Chaifetz charges $1 for each person that attends, which should amount to roughly $3,000 or $4,000 per graduation for a total closer to $23,000. “So this is a huge bargain,” board member Jean Pretto said. Although the Family Arena has been

popular, it can feel far away and downtown seems closer, board member Lisa Messmer added. “It’s a 20-minute drive to get there versus an hour-and-a-half sometimes,” Messmer said. The graduations will take place June 2 next year. The district will try Chaifetz for one year, but then will likely consider longer-term contracts so that it can lock in the best dates and prevent a recurrence of what happened this year. Traditionally, the district has scheduled its graduations back-to-back on a Sunday in early June, which makes it easier for officials and board members who have to attend both graduations. They had traditionally rented that date from the Family Arena, but had not locked in the date through more than a one-year contract at a time. But the district got booted from its traditional date this year, in favor of the Wentzville School District. Instead, graduations will take place on separate weekday nights, with Oakville’s ceremony taking place on Thursday, May 31, and Mehlville’s ceremony taking place

Prosecuting Attorney Tim Lohmar has asked that Trakas be removed from office for his work as an independent contractor doing legal work for three public school districts. Although the Charter change would not affect Trakas’ immediate battle to keep his seat, it would prevent a council member from being ousted in the future for the same thing. “I think we were all surprised to see this Charter applied as it had been, and it’s been an eye-opener,” said Chairman Sam Page, D-Creve Coeur. “We rec-

Council eyes changes to its Charter See related article on Page 1A By GLORIA LLOYD News Editor Among the changes the County Council is trying to make to the St. Louis County Charter is the council’s now-familiar contention that it needs its own legal representation when it encounters disputes with the county counselor. But the council also appeared to stand in support of 6th District Councilman Ernie Trakas, R-Oakville, that the Charter definition of employment should not include work as an independent contractor.

• Raise LNEA signs on to 3-percent raise for 2018-2019 budget (Continued from Page 1A)

On the administration side, negotiations were handled this year by Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources Brian McKenney. LNEA President Kim Scronce was unavailable to comment before the Call’s press time. Besides the step increase, more money was added to certain cells of the salary schedule to make them more competitive with benchmark districts. The district also added money to some cells last year to make them more competitive. Overall, the district added more money to five rungs on the salary schedule for teachers with bachelor’s degrees, five rungs for teachers with bachelor’s degrees plus

150 hours of more education, nine rungs for teachers with master’s degrees and 10 rungs for teachers with master’s degrees plus 30 graduate hours. The district saved $2.3 million this year from 27 retiring teachers. The step costs $810,279 of that, and the cost of 27 new teachers to replace the retiring ones is $1.4 million. Lane changes from teachers gaining education adds $104,210. The district continues to add new teachers too. It will add 1.84 classroom teachers, a counselor and an in-school suspension/credit-recovery teacher at Lindbergh High School, two teachers and a reading specialist for middle school, two teachers, a reading specialist and a library media specialist for elementary and one districtwide literacy coach. That adds up to $752,367 in new salaries.

Thirteen Lindbergh High School students committed to college fine-arts programs during a special signing ceremony last week. District Music Coordinator Linda Huck congratulated the seniors, who collectively earned more than $100,000 in scholarships from 10 different institutions. “This is a great testament to the school district, to the music department and to all of the families for supporting and encouraging your children in the fine arts,” Huck said in a news release. Huck also thanked the students for their hard work and dedication, and for sharing their talents with the Lindbergh community. All of the school’s fine arts – band, choir, orchestra and theatre – were represented at the event, with six students participating in multiple programs. Lindbergh’s commitments include: • Jacob Blackwell, band/orchestra, University of Missouri • Cullen Curth, theatre/choir, Webster University • Abbey Friedmann, choir, University of Oklahoma • Josh Guehring, band/orchestra, Southeast Missouri State University • William Kraus, band, United States Marine Corps

FINAL PROOF APPROVED BY/ DATE:

But it’s needed because they see an inherent conflict of interest in the county counselor position, which is appointed by the county executive and approved by the council, but serves at the pleasure of the county executive. With the council and county executive increasingly at odds in the last year, attention has turned to how County Counselor Peter Krane interprets bills, laws and the Charter. “I think it’s human nature for anyone who aggressively disagrees with us to interfere with our ability to have representation,” Page said. “But it’s an internal conflict. It’s unfathomable that we would share legal counsel.” Wasinger wanted stricter requirements on what constitutes a conflict that would allow the council to go out and hire special counsel. She wanted five votes to be required to take that drastic step. “I would not want to use this provision indiscriminately,” Wasinger said. “I would hope it would never be used.” But Page said a resolution could declare a conflict, just as the council has already done in the last year when four members sued Stenger. The move to allow the council to hire its own attorney brings it into line with the St. Louis Board of Aldermen, which has its own legal representation aside from the city counselor. But Jackson County and other large counties only have one lawyer, Wasinger said. It also could mean that the council’s lawyer gives a different interpretation of the law from the county counselor, which would be a predicament Wasinger hoped to avoid. “I just want to make sure we don’t have two masters that are serving the county legally,” she said.

Most of the current Charter dates to the 1970s, and council members say it grants too much power to the county executive over the council. As it stands, the council can’t approve more money than the county executive recommends. The council approves the budget, but the county executive can move any line item around. “This effectively renders the budget process null and void,” Trakas said at a council hearing on the amendments April 17. “This means that regardless of what is passed by the council, the executive has the ability to make excessive funds in some departments less visible by depleting funds of others.” One of the changes is aimed directly at Trakas, changing the definition of “employment” so that it does not include work as an independent contractor. While that would not help Trakas’ current situation, in which a judge will decide if he should be removed from office for his paid legal work for public school districts, it would prevent the same situation from happening in the future. The first proposed Charter amendment requires line-by-line transfers to be approved by the council. A second change would limit campaign contributions to county offices to $2,600 per election, the same as statewide limits voters approved in 2016. Businesses or developers with business or contracts pending before the council could not make donations to any county official’s campaign 90 days before or 90 days after the business was approved, and if they do, they will be disqualified from the contract, which will be deemed void. Another clause in that amendment requires the director of administration to create a website that provides financial documents including “all St. Louis County debts, expenditures, pension fund balances, pension fund statements and budget documents… implemented in a manner that will ensure the accountability and transparency of the St. Louis County government’s financial matters and affairs.” The final suggestion would allow the council to hire its own lawyer to represent it as an independent special counsel instead of sharing the county counselor, who is also the attorney for the county executive and the rest of county government. The 90-day ban against campaign contributions by those who have contracts with the county is meant to “ensure there are no pay-to-play concerns in the future,” Trakas said. “There’s an intense need to eliminate appearance of impropriety that exists currently, and so this Charter amendment goes a long way toward doing that.” The campaign contributions could also pave the way for more political-action committees, or PACs, to become involved

Call Publishing, Thursday, May 10, 2018 - Page 13A in county politics. Like at the state and federal levels, their spending is not covered by campaign contribution limits. The initiative seems squarely aimed at County Executive Steve Stenger, who has set records for fundraising in his campaigns for county executive and also denied allegations that he directed county contracts to campaign donors. But the county executive said he supports the change. “I think that’s an excellent idea,” Stenger said of contribution limits. “I think that the cost of these elections have gotten far out of hand. The cost of the county executive race has gotten way out of hand, it’s far too expensive. Asking people for money is not an enjoyable experience, and the more we can make the race the less expensive, the better.” But he said the council’s limits do not go far enough and allow a self-funding candidate to “essentially buy the election because there are no caps on the selffunder.” The ban on individual contributions could also mean more PACs enter county races. Their funding may not be as transparent as individual contributions. “I think it is generally a good idea,” said 3rd District Councilwoman Colleen Wasinger, R-Huntleigh. “My only concern is that I know money comes in other ways that might not be transparent.” Other council members were in favor. “I do think we have to do something, because that whole thing with the payto-play and all that has just gotten out of control,” said 1st District Councilwoman Hazel Erby, D-University City. Budget change ‘operational nightmare,’ budget director says County Budget Director Paul Kreidler objected to the idea of the council approving each individual line-item transfer. There are 1,900 of those a year, so that would require 1,900 more votes, he said. “My main concern is that what is now an efficient paperless process would become SIZEprocess,” OF ISSUE a time-intensive paper he said.RUN AD(S) DATE: “I think that this will pretty significantly impact our ability1/8to manage an5/10/18 efficient operation.” “One person’s excessive tracking is another person’s accountability,” responded council Chairman Sam Page, D-Creve Coeur. Every year is going to be different, so even if budget officials learn how to better plan and budget in one year, constant adjustments have to be made throughout the year, Kreidler said in response to 7th District Councilman Mark Harder, R-Ballwin, who questioned the need for all the transfers and adjustments in the first place. Overall, it would be a “big operational problem for us,” Kreidler added. Trakas suggested that Kreidler submit his own proposal that would be “less burdensome on you,” and the budget director said the county already produces a monthly report on all line items. “But that takes us back to status quo, right?” Trakas said.

most serious of which would be impeachment. The special session will begin immediately after the regular session ends on May 18 and will give the committee time to “investigate and collect relevant information surrounding the conduct of Gov. Greitens,” Richardson said. At a press conference following the May 3 session, Republican leaders said 138 representatives and 29 senators had signed the petition to enact a special session. They only needed 123 in the House and 26 in the Senate. The petition was signed by every south county lawmaker, including Sen. Scott Sifton, D-Affton, and Sen. Andrew Koenig, R-Manchester. It was also signed by Haefner, Rep. Doug Beck, D-Affton, Rep. Bob Burns, D-Affton, David Gregory, R-Sunset Hills, Rep. Mike Revis, D-Fenton, and Rep. Sarah Unsicker, D-Shrewsbury. For the first portion of the session, the investigative committee is expected to continue its work, Richardson said. The session is limited to 30 days. “The House and the Senate agree that the committee should have the time it needs to conduct a fair, thorough and timely investigation,” Richardson said. In addition to the House investigation, the governor faces two felony charges. One involves allegations made by Greitens’ former hairstylist that he sexually and physically abused her in 2015. The other involves reported misuse of a donor list

than outside. The low-slung motor lodges that populated Sunset Hills and other areas along Route 66 are increasingly viewed as relics of the past. The Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommended a higher height limit last week aimed at Days Inn owner HR Sheevam’s proposal for a more modern hotel along South Lindbergh Boulevard. Sheevam’s plan includes a new 74-unit hotel next to Ameren Missouri that will replace the current Days Inn. Demolition is underway on a building the city wanted demolished, with a deadline of the end of the month. “Aldermen wanted to find out what the city could do to entice better brands, and Mr. Sheevam told them taller buildings means better brands,” said Sheevam’s attorney, Sunset Hills resident Norbert Glassl.

The 56th Colored Infantry was stationed in Helena, Arkansas, during the Civil

taken from a nonprofit Greitens ran that was used to raise funds for his campaign. In response to criticism from Greitens’ team that the investigative committee has only heard from one side, Richardson said “the committee has made itself available for any witness the governor wanted to produce, to take testimony from the governor, to review any documents.” The petition was delivered to the Secretary of State’s Office at a little after 7 p.m. May 3. If the process leads the House to vote for impeachment, the Senate would then select a panel of seven “jurists” to hear the case. Ron Richard, president pro tem of the Senate, said they have not begun the process of vetting judges to appoint to such a panel. This is the first time that the Legislature has called itself into a special session in Missouri’s history. All previous special sessions have been called by a governor. Despite the circumstances, Richardson said the session “has quietly turned into one of the most successful sessions of my time.” House Democrats had been holding out from signing the petition, because they wanted the issue to be dealt with immediately instead of delayed to a special session. But with time growing short, they signed last week. “No one takes pleasure in this, but I think it is something that we absolutely have to do,” said House Minority Leader Gail McCann Beatty, D-Kansas City. “My constituents want to know why we haven’t done something already.” Kathryn Hardison and Gloria Lloyd contributed to this report.

A plan to modernize the Hampton Inn at 1580 S. Kirkwood Road was postponed from the same commission meeting. The city currently limits buildings to 35 feet, which is roughly four stories, plus a 15-foot parapet. Sheevam would prefer to build five floors at his new hotel, which would mean a building measuring 46.3 feet. The planning panel agreed to raise the height limit to 60 feet, with the condition that for every 10 feet in height above 35 feet, the hotel would have to have another 10 feet in setback to any residential property. A 60-foot-tall building would require 400 feet in setback. If the Board of Aldermen does not sign on to the higher height limits, the plan will still go through as a four-story hotel. Sheevam was not able to attend the May 2 meeting because he was on the West Coast meeting with representatives of Choice Hotels about the new hotel plan, Glassl said.

Crestwood and Affton get their days in court

Newly elected state legislator Jim Murphy of Oakville hugs his son, former Mehlville Board of Education member Jamey Murphy, at the elder Murphy’s victory party at Cafe Telegraph Nov. 6, after the father and son heard the final results in the race. Photo by Erin Achenbach.

‘Red wave’ turns south county crimson By GLORIA LLOYD News Editor The Democratic “blue wave” expected by some for the election last week didn’t happen in South St. Louis County, which instead saw a “red wave” of Republicans elected to Missouri House seats. In the most competitive race, Oakville Republican Jim Murphy narrowly defeated Mehlville Board of Education member Jean Pretto, an Oakville Democrat, 51 percent to 48.7 percent to succeed the late Rep. Cloria Brown representing the 94th District.

In Oakville’s 95th District currently held by Rep. Marsha Haefner, R-Oakville, Republican Michael O’Donnell defeated Democratic candidate Mike Walter 58 percent to 42 percent. Rep. David Gregory, R-Sunset Hills, was reelected over Democratic challenger Erica Hoffman in the 96th District with 60 percent of the vote. And incumbent Rep. Mike Revis, D-Fenton, lost to Republican challenger Mary Elizabeth Coleman, a former Arnold city councilwoman, in the 97th District House race. Revis won election in (See CRIMSON, Page 16A)

By GLORIA LLOYD News Editor A judge could soon rule on the lawsuit between the city of Crestwood and the Affton Fire Protection District, after the case got its day in court this fall. Crestwood filed a lawsuit in May 2017 in Cole County Circuit Court challenging the constitutionality of two state laws requiring the city to make annual payments to Affton. To overturn those laws, the city is also suing Attorney General Josh Hawley. The laws require the city to make indefinite annual payments to the AFPD for providing fire service to an area that Crestwood annexed in 1997. The calculation of those payments is based on the fire district’s property-tax rate, which keeps creeping up as voters approve tax hikes, the lawsuit alleges. (See COURT, Page 8A)

Grant Mabie will serve as Crestwood’s mayor

By GLORIA LLOYD News Editor There’s no maybe about it — Ward 3 Alderman Grant Mabie will serve as Crestwood’s next mayor. In a rare November special election for mayor, Mabie was elected with more than 70 percent of the vote in a three-way field versus two newcomers to city government, Christopher Court and Neil Brown. Mabie earned 72.73 percent of the vote to 18.13 percent for Court and 8 percent for Brown. Mabie earned 4,605 votes to 1,148 for Court and 505 for Brown. (See MAYOR, Page 23A)

Revis’ time as legislator in 97th District short-lived; Coleman rides ‘red wave’ to win By ERIN ACHENBACH Staff Reporter Republican challenger Mary Elizabeth Coleman defeated Rep. Mike Revis, D-Fenton, in his re-election bid last week for the 97th Missouri House District. Coleman won the district, which straddles South St. Louis County and Jefferson County, with 56.3 percent of the votes compared to 43.7 percent for Revis.

for Jefferson County executive, although he later gave up that bid. Coleman, a former Arnold councilwoman who frequently went door to door with some of her six children, posted a photo of one of them at an election night victory party with U.S. Rep. Ann Wagner and the caption, “We took back the 97th!!” (See LEGISLATOR, Page 9A)

The Nov. 6 election was the second in a year for Revis, who won the seat in a special election in February but then had to turn around and campaign for the November election. His initial win caught national attention since the district went for President Trump by 20 points in 2016. That first election, against Republican David Linton, happened after former Republican Rep.

With no buyer, the remaining 17 locations are closing. The closure of the Shop ’n Save is one of many that have hit the Watson Road corridor. The loss of business and subsequent sales tax could bring an estimated $330,000 loss to the city in sales-tax revenue, not accounting for utility tax. However, City Administrator Kris Simpson said events like this are accounted for in the budget. “We’ve been fortunate because we do have room for contingencies like this in the budget,” said Simpson. “We plan for the worst-case scenario or unfortunate circumstances such as a closure that allow you to ride out economic fluctuations.”

Two local churches will be offering free community meals on Thanksgiving this year. Affton Christian Church, 9625 Tesson Ferry Road, and St. Luke’s United Methodist Church, 2761 Telegraph Road, will both offer community dinners on the holiday, Thursday, Nov. 22. Affton Christian Church will provide a free Thanksgiving dinner from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. It is the 10th year the Affton church is providing a meal for anyone from the community who wants to attend. The church served over 350 meals to residents at the event in 2016.

However, Simpson said that the city does not have enough information right now to estimate the impact of the utility-tax loss. The city has taken steps to mitigate the damage the store’s closing may cause. A part-time position that had not yet been filled was eliminated, and budget requests are being closely scrutinized. “The 2019 (fiscal year) budget factored in losses, and we still have a balanced budget that meets needs,” said Simpson. “It comes down to being fiscally conservative.” Current Ward 3 Alderman Grant Mabie, who was elected as mayor last week, has a fairly optimistic outlook on the situation. board plans to work with SIZEThe OF ISSUE RUN the owner of the space to turn the area into AD(S) DATE: a vibrant shopping plaza, and the money lost from Shop ’n Save could come back 16th 11/15/18 to the city through increased sales at other Crestwood groceries such as Aldi, the existing Schnucks and Sam’s Club. “In some ways we’re really lucky to have three grocery stores plus a Sam’s Club,” said Mabie. “That’s a luxury a lot of cities don’t have... I don’t view it as a decline. Just as a tough break for the city.”

Editorial Our Call

Calling for an audit on the vote for the state’s auditor

As usual, Missouri voters are perplexing us. The Call has editorialized many times in the last two years about the lack of qualifications of the St. Louis County auditor, who has a nearly $100,000 federal tax lien and has served nearly two years without completing a single audit, at a cost of $85,000 plus benefits to taxpayers. So we’re also scratching our heads at how more than a million Missouri voters cast ballots last week for Republican auditor candidate Saundra McDowell. Despite early returns that had McDowell leading incumbent Democratic Auditor Nicole Galloway, thankfully McDowell didn’t win. And that can only be a good thing for Missouri taxpayers, who have been well served in a nonpartisan fashion by Galloway. As for McDowell, this column doesn’t have enough space for a detailed recounting of her financial troubles, but here’s a partial rundown: She had court judgments ordering her to pay back money for furniture and more than $30,000 in unpaid rent. She had unpaid personal property taxes. Her wages as an assistant attorney general were actually garnished to pay a judgment. Galloway hasn’t been a statewide embarrassment as auditor. With all her financial baggage, McDowell would have been. So especially after this year in Missouri government, what were voters thinking? The easy explanation is that voters simply voted for the Republican, no matter her qualifications, in a year that turned out to be a “red wave.” But voters clearly did their homework, as seen with their vote for Amendment 2 to legalize medical marijuana and votes against Amendment 3 and Proposition C to do the same. Voters showed with this vote that they paid attention to local newspaper coverage and the many editorial boards telling them to vote “yes” on one medical marijuana initiative but “no” on the others. And despite polls saying voters would approve all three, voters listened and averted a possible constitutional crisis. So why did they see it as acceptable to vote for a financial watchdog who didn’t pay taxes, abide by contracts or follow qualifications for the office? It’s a mystery that remains unsolved. But whether backed by Democrats or the GOP, it goes without saying that auditors should not have to be audited themselves.

Oakville writer: Lindbergh parade should not shut down the highway To the editor: Don’t get me wrong, I love a parade. But the homecoming parade that was sanctioned by Lindbergh High School with the assistance of the county police was ridiculous. It was 5:45 p.m. Traffic was stopped at Lindbergh and Roxanna Drive. I saw the flashing lights from the police

cars, fearing a major accident — only to see the beginning of a long parade crossing Lindbergh entering the school grounds. We sat for 15 minutes. Some cars chose to turn around. I sincerely hope no one had an emergency. Shutting down a major artery for a trivial parade screams for a better plan.

And that would be to break up the parade at, let’s say, every other traffic light sequence. Traffic would still be tied up, but not at a standstill. Better yet, don’t shut down a major highway unless it’s for an emergency. Don Figler Oakville

Writer says Kavanaugh case shows that #metoo is for political gains To the editor: On the idea that #metoo is not for political gains — let’s point the right finger at the right people here. Dr. Christine Blasey Ford has alleged that now-U.S. Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her almost 30 years ago. Whether this young man did this at the time is not my point. There are too many missing facts to form any opinion, much less a real judgment. From the news I have heard that Dr. Ford has received praise for stepping up, and death threats. The death threats coming from the obvious side, and people saying she waited too late to bring this up or it is a lie. Republican senators asked that she come in or allow them to come to her so that she could give

a sworn testimony and have the FBI look into it. The left is coming out saying the GOP is trying to hurry this along and is not doing the victim justice. I cannot pretend to know what this woman is going through, if it did happen or not. I will state we are not putting any blame or giving flak to the correct people. Kavanaugh was nominated July 9. Dr. Ford wrote this letter to U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein in late July. That would have been time to bring this issue up. The government wasted two months of FBI background checks, hearings and even just Kavanaugh’s time. Skeptics of the #metoo movement, including myself — I am working on this flaw of mine — point to time statutes, and why now?

If Sen. Feinstein was really worried about the victims of #metoo and not about her own political career and personal gains, this letter would have been brought up then. “But, what if Kavanaugh would have failed in his hearings?” you ask. Give the letter to the FBI while they are doing their own checks. If she feels it was not addressed by the FBI in the hearings, then she could make it public like it is now. So let’s not get upset at Dr. Ford or Justice Kavanaugh until we know the facts. The only facts we have now are that Sen. Feinstein held onto a letter for two months and revealed it not to protect other victims of sexual predators, but for political gains. Shawn Finney Sunset Hills

Patriot Rider objects to Broughton comparing Trump to Hitler, Nazis To the editor: My, my, Mr. Michael Broughton, Green Park Ward 1 alderman. I don’t know what’s in the water in Green Park, but it seems to make you say foolish things. President Donald Trump and Adolf Hitler are similar? As far as President Trump, he is doing exactly what he said he would do. And doing it very well I might add. Let’s see: Taxes are lower, regulations are fewer, unemployment is way down to levels not seen in decades, black unemployment is down to unheard-of

levels, the stock market is soaring — retirement investments are up, and we have a president that respects the military and police. He has been able to do what none of the past three presidents have been able to accomplish: Bring some dignity back to America. It’s too bad that you are so miserable as America prospers and can’t share in the joy. Denny Eads Oakville Patriot Guard Riders ride captain

Broughton critic asks: Do aldermen have term limits in Green Park? To the editor: In response to Green Park Ward 1 Alderman Michael Broughton’s Sept. 27 letter, Mike, this is also not fiction: 304 to 227 electoral votes for President Donald Trump and 63,000,000 American votes for

Trump. We’ve had slave owners, womanizers, alcoholics, liars, movie stars and we’ve impeached presidents and we’ve always made it through. We were not nominating someone for

sainthood. It’s just politics. So get over it, Mike, and we also have term limits. By the way, do they have term limits in Green Park? Mark Manley Concord

‘How far have our morals fallen?’ reader asks re Kavanaugh’s case To the editor: I find it offensive when I hear from members of a political party using the excuse that everyone attempted rape when they

were teens. No they didn’t. Especially when they want to sit on the highest court in our country.

How far have our morals fallen? Shame on you.

Revis won in February, but Coleman ‘takes back’ 97th (Continued from Page 1A)

A difference in campaign styles is the reason that the elections, at least on a local level, were more of a “red wave” than the anticipated “blue wave,” Revis said. “A lot of my Democratic colleagues opted to take the high road and focus on the issues and factual differences between themselves and their opponents’ stances,” said Revis. “I think under the Trump administration with how he does his campaigning, Republicans feel this kind of free-for-all that they can say anything and get away with it, because that’s what their president does.” While out canvassing and campaigning, Revis said the biggest concerns he heard from voters depended on the time of year. Earlier in the summer, the right-to-work measure Proposition A and other labor issues were hot topics. But as the midterms grew closer, the issues changed with the news cycle, with immigration and the confirmation hearings for U.S. Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh dominating much of the news leading up to November. Revis said it is too early to determine if he plans on running for public office in the future. But he plans to stay involved in the community he’s called home his whole life. His family dates back three generations in Fenton and Jefferson County. “It was a pretty humbling experience. I got to serve the community my family has been in for generations,” said Revis on his time as representative. “I got to stand

up and be a voice for working people and being a part of shooting down right-towork in our state... Just truly representing my district and not just my party... I truly had the voting record that reflected this district and put those issues first. And that’s something I can be proud of.” Coleman, who could not be reached for comment, was one of 103 women running for federal and state office in Missouri. An estate-planning attorney by trade, Coleman decided to set her sights on the 97th District when it flipped Democratic. “Friends and neighbors approached me about running because they wanted to see a strong Republican candidate on the ballot in November. Having run a small business, I understand the need for consistency in tax laws and regulations,” said Coleman in her candidate questionnaire to the Call on why she was running for state representative. “On (the Arnold) city council, I was able to use my legal experience and practical approach to spearhead economic development. I know I can win this election and help bring some common sense to Missouri government.” Coleman said the first legislation she plans on introducing would be to strengthen the laws protecting victims of sex trafficking and tighten the laws to punish those who participate, financially benefit from or commit sex trafficking. She also plans to focus on flooding, which she cited as the single most important issue in the race: “...

Going into the sectional, Oakville (12-14) had won four of its last five games, including a 3-0 shutout of St. Louis University High to win the Missouri Class 4 District 4 championship. The Tigers’ district championship was their first under second-year

head coach Jordan Klipsch, who succeeded longtime coach Dave Robben last year. “This was one of the best games that we have played this season, because earlier in the season they beat us 6-1,” Klipsch said. “They (Marquette) are a very good team, and to come out against them and hold them to two goals, it was outstanding work by the boys.

Are You Fearful of Having Another Fall? Top 4 Exercises to Improve Your Balance at Home! By Geriatric Physical Therapist Dr. Beth Templin If you had a chance to read my previous article, you’ll know there are various factors that contribute to your balance including: your leg strength, your vision, your inner ear and the ability to feel your feet. Other issues like pain, blood pressure, medication side effects and dizziness can also have a negative impact on your balance. Did you know that your age plays a role too? The older you are, the more likely you are to have a fall. And if you’ve had a previous fall, your chances of falling again doubles. The good news is you are never too old to improve your strength and balance! There is plenty of research to support improved strength and balance into your 80s, 90s and beyond. Get ready to take back some control over your balance and your life with these exercises. Here are 4 of the most common exercises that we perform at HouseFit with clients who want to improve their balance and prevent another fall.

3. One Leg Stand: Hold onto the countertop, then lift one foot off the ground and hold for 60 sec and repeat 3 times on each leg. When this gets easy, try to let go with one hand and then with both hands.

Please make sure to hold on when starting these exercises and then slowly take away your hand support as you improve. It should be noted these exercises are appropriate for most of our clients. Some of them may be too easy for you, while others may seem a little too hard. The best way to know if an exercise is right for you is to have a balance assessment from a Doctor of Physical Therapy. If you would like more information on how we can create a specialized program for you, 1. Heel Raises: Hold onto a firm countertop call us at (314) 339-7430. with your feet shoulder width apart.

the game just two minutes later to bring the score to 2-0. “Trent’s incredibly quick and explosive, and that was one of those few times that he did get free,” Kenny said. “On the second goal, we went out wide and played the cross and he put it in.” The Tigers will graduate 13 seniors from this year’s squad, which means that Klipsch will start with a young squad for the 2019 season. “This whole season has been a work in progress,” Klipsch said. “Thankfully the end of the season we began turning it on and started clicking, and everything was going right for us.”

FINAL PROOF APPROVED BY/ DATE:

Steve Stenger predictably won re-election with 56.92 percent of the vote to Republican Paul Berry III’s 37.3 percent. Fenton Fire Protection District’s $25 million bond issue Prop F was approved by voters. It garnered 67.8 percent of the vote to 32.2 percent “no” votes, or 9,281 votes to 4,412. Former St. Louis County Police Department Chief Tim Fitch, R-Fenton, was elected to the 3rd District County Council seat, succeeding 3rd District Councilwoman Colleen Wasinger. Voters overwhelmingly approved a new sales tax of one-eighth of a cent for the St. Louis Zoo to expand to a new conservation breeding ground in north county. The tax brought home 61 percent of votes. Voters also passed a slate of proposals to change the St. Louis County Charter. They approved campaign-finance limits for county candidates with 74 percent of the vote. They also approved a “parks protection amendment” that would require the sale of any county parkland to go to a public vote. That passed with 78 percent of the vote. The Charter Commission ballot measure passed with 55 percent of the vote. Changes to the Charter were approved with higher vote totals: An amendment changing how budgetary transfers are handled drew 65 percent of the vote, while posting financial information on the county website saw support from 80 percent of voters. A smoking ban on 50 percent of casino floors edged by with 50.8 percent of the vote. In statewide amendments to the Missouri Constitution, the “Clean Missouri” Amendment 1 passed overwhelmingly with 62 percent of the vote. Voters had to decide among three proposals to legalize medical marijuana, two amendments and a state statute. As recommended by editorial boards across the state, they chose Amendment 2 over alternatives. Voters also overwhelmingly approved Proposition B, which gradually raises the minimum wage to $12 an hour by 2023. But a 10-cent gas tax that had wide bipartisan support failed in both the state and the county. Statewide, 53.6 percent of voters rejected Proposition D. Voters also narrowly approved changes to how bingo can be advertised. For more results and complete vote totals, visit www.callnewspapers.com.

• Precinct

Trakas: Precinct still set for site at Sappington, Gravois (Continued from Page 2A)

planned to use four acres for the new precinct and sell the rest. As one of Belmar’s promises with how to spend Prop P, a one-eighth of a cent countywide sales tax, he promised a new Affton precinct. The aging Affton facility would be replaced with a more modern precinct similar to the new South County Precinct on Sappington Barracks Road. The new site, on 4.1 acres and five parcels at 11448 through 11530 Gravois Road, is 2.6 miles and a five-minute drive down Gravois from the original location. After Belmar’s May announcement, County Counselor Peter Krane suggested the council go into closed session with, among others, the head of the St. Louis Economic Development Partnership, Sheila Sweeney. The economic organization has close ties with the Port Authority and with County Executive Steve Stenger. Soon after, 6th District Councilman Ernie Trakas, R-Oakville, and council Chairman Sam Page, D-Creve Coeur, said they had questions about the land deal and whether the Port Authority was authorized to approve it rather than the council. They delayed but ultimately voted for a bill approving the design contract after ensuring that the county got an appraisal for the land — which hadn’t initially been done. The deal should move forward, Trakas said last week.

SIZE OF AD(S) Half

“The police chief has provided us with an appraisal, and we are simply waiting on legislation,” Trakas said this fall. “I believe that the ultimate legislation has to come through the council. The Port Authority could arguably say they could buy or sell, but at the end of the day the building of the precinct has to be approved by the council. And I’m not conceding that the Port Authority has unfettered authority to do anything.” Stenger was re-elected to a second term last week. “It’s not about the precinct, it’s about slowing down the precinct so that we don’t have a groundbreaking or a ribbon cutting before the election — which is shameful, but it’s what it is,” Stenger said. “They may push back on something like the precinct, but Ernie Trakas knows that he can’t turn that precinct down because there will be an outcry like never before from the people in his district. They were promised a police precinct, and they deserve a precinct. And he’s going to vote for it because his people require it.” Trakas and Page spearheaded a bill passed by the council that essentially fired all the current Port Authority members, who were serving on expired terms. The council approved a contract for design of the precinct to move forward, but no county official seemed certain about the precinct’s timeline last week in the wake of the shakeup of the Port Authority. In the latest chapter of the ongoing feud between Stenger and the council last week, the council appointed its own members to

ISSUE RUN DATE: 11/15/18

the Port Authority. Stenger said the move to oust current board members was illegal, and he appointed his own competing members to add to the panel. Stenger’s appointees met with the Port Authority in closed session for an hour and a half last week at the Economic Development Partnership’s office in Clayton to discuss legal issues, attorney Kim Diamond said. She said she was unsure whether the legal makeup of the board was Stenger’s appointees or the council’s, but she believes it to be Stenger’s. “I don’t know if they approved that land transaction, but that’s certainly one of the business items that needs to be addressed,” Page said. “But it has to be a legally constituted authority to make that land transaction…. The Port Authority needs to get back in business, they need to manage that land transfer.” Garden shop says goodbye Stanley called her family’s many decades operating the Sappington Garden Shop the “ride of our lives.” She hasn’t announced her next step yet, but doesn’t plan on retiring. But she will most miss the customers. Gardeners make the best customers, she said. The Heimos family’s business started as a Christmas tree lot and, with the slogan “The Key to Outdoor Living,” grew into a staple of south county and a “lifetime of love, family and work” for more than 50 years. “It is time for this chapter in our lives to close,” Stanley said. “It is truly bitter-

ARTIST/ PROOF DATE DONE: RECEIVED BY: Proof 1: KM 11/12/18

sweet.” The Heimoses bought the land from the Wagner family in 1951. They first operated Sappington Fruit and Produce at 11530 Gravois, then built a new market at 11520 Gravois and operated out of that building for years. The family, then with seven children, also lived in the market building. When the family grew to nine children, they moved to a larger home in Oakville. Business in those days was another world entirely, Stanley said. “Blue laws” prohibited sales on Sunday, but Sappington Fruit and Produce could still stay open because it was a produce outlet for truck farmers. “People from all over south county would come and buy produce and get their fireworks in one location,” she said. As a hobby on the side, Norwin Heimos started growing vegetables and flowers. Of that decision, Stanley said, “This was the key to our today.” The Sappington Garden Shop opened in 1967, and at that time a standalone garden shop was a novel concept. Today, the family has greenhouses on land along Eddie and Park Road and in several locations in Illinois. Those sell plants to wholesale vendors and will stay open after the garden shop closes. “It has been a great honor and joy to be part of the St. Louis garden community for the past 50 years,” Stanley said. “We hope to see our wonderful customers shopping other independent garden shops in St. Louis. Remember a true gardener ‘plants dreams and grows love.’”

• Mayor

Mabie outlines priorities of the city in next 18 months (Continued from Page 1A)

The new mayor will likely be sworn in at the Board of Aldermen meeting Tuesday, Nov. 27, after election results are certified. He will take over day-to-day mayoral duties from acting Mayor Tony Kennedy, the president of the Board of Aldermen. To fill his Ward 3 seat, he said he plans to appoint Economic Development Commission member Greg Hall, a former Arnold director of administration. Hall could also be sworn in at that meeting after Mabie takes over as mayor. An Oakville native and graduate of Oakville High School and the Missouri University of Science and Technology in Rolla, Mabie is an attorney who has lived in Crestwood for about a decade. He and his wife, Patty, have two children, Anne and Claire, who attend Lindbergh Schools. With more than 4,000 votes, Mabie received more votes than the totals in the last contested mayoral election combined between former Mayor Gregg Roby and former Mayor Jeff Schlink in 2014. Roby resigned in June for health reasons, which means Mabie will serve out the rest of Roby’s term, through April 2020. Mabie has served as an alderman since 2015, and was re-elected in April by a rare margin of victory in Crestwood. Court and Brown are new to city service. “It was November, you had a lot of people voting, and I’d like to think people liked the message I had,” Mabie said of how he won. “I’m sure I had a leg up on some prior name recognition compared to the other two candidates… If you’re going to run as someone who hasn’t served as an alderman or served on a city commission, you really have to try that much harder to convince voters.” The race itself focused on issues and never ventured into negativity as far as Mabie could tell. The candidates all said they thought the city was headed in the right direction, supported City Administrator Kris Simpson and respected Roby’s service. Court called Mabie to offer his congratulations on election night, and Mabie hopes to sign his opponent up as a volunteer on a city board. Court was actively out knocking on doors during the campaign. “If someone cares enough about the city to pound the pavement every weekend, it would be good to have that person put their time and energy on city boards and commissions,” Mabie said. At a meeting of the Concord-LemayGravois Republican Club during the campaign, Mabie outlined his five priorities for the city in depth. First, he said his primary focus as mayor would be getting the mall redevelopment off the ground. “We’re knee deep in trying to sort out the Crestwood mall development,” he said. “We think we’ve got some positive momentum there, and there’s some other things kind of percolating. We hope to see some cranes up and down Watson Road in the next few years.” The city is also rewriting the zoning code to make it more business friendly

Call Publishing, Thursday, November 15, 2018 - Page 23A and easier for residents to follow, the first substantial rewrite of the code in 40 years. The city is also working on implementing some of its comprehensive plan. Secondly, Mabie said he wanted to continue “governmental efficiency” in Crestwood. The city has done a lot of studies comparing its budget to other cities. “I would put us up against almost anyone in the region for how efficient our departments are — the Police Department, the Fire Department, Public Works,” Mabie said. “When you look at revenue and expenditures per citizen, we really do a good job overseeing our taxpayer dollars.” With budget season coming up, the city is on an easier financial path since voters approved Proposition C last year, the first permanent tax-rate increase in city history, he said. Third, Mabie said he wants to maintain the city’s infrastructure. In recent years, the city has improved the average quality of its roads as measured on an independent scale, and Mabie said officials want to continue that trend. The city started a sidewalk repair program for the first time in 13 years and is examining ways to fund it without raising taxes. “We’re exploring ways to expand the sidewalk network by where it’s underserved next to schools and churches and parks,” Mabie said. He also hopes to find ways to connect more neighborhoods to Whitecliff Park through the woods, plans that have been drawn up in the past by city consultants but never happened. Fourth, “I just want to make sure we maintain a professional demeanor, make sure we conduct our business fairly and as a city, we’re respectful when people come talk to us and we explain city decisions clearly and answer citizen questions,” Mabie said. “Right now we’ve got some divergent views on the Board of Aldermen, but the debate’s respectful. We also run the meetings well, and I want to absolutely continue that. People should demand professionalism from their government.” And lastly, Mabie said he wants to investigate what he can do to protect the city from increasing crime. “I don’t know any city that’s been immune from it, it seems anecdotally there’s been kind of a spike in petty crimes, people stealing from cars and garages and things like that,” Mabie said. “We’ve been talking with our Police Department, how can we solve this?” One idea Mabie suggested is mounting license-plate scanners at the entrance to the city to automatically scan incoming cars into Crestwood. If a car was stolen or a person is wanted on a felony warrant, the police would get an alert. Other cities, especially in north county, have adopted that system. “It’s not a done deal, but it’s something being explored because we want to have a safe, vibrant community,” Mabie said. And Mabie already has his first critic. “I could actually challenge almost every point you made about what’s going on in the government,” Ward 3 resident Martha Duchild told him at the meeting.
