Aroundt h e ART TOUR

COMES ALIVE

Public art helps define an entire community’s identity and reveal its unique character. It can make strangers talk, children ask questions, and calm a hurried life.

Beyond its enriching personal benefits, public art is a true symbol of a city’s maturity. It increases a community’s assets and expresses a community’s positive sense of identity and values. It helps green space thrive, enhances roadsides, pedestrian corridors, and community gateways; it demonstrates unquestionable civic and corporate pride in citizenship and affirms an educational environment. A city with public art is a city that thinks and feels.

The City of Westerville continues to add public art in spaces for citizens to enjoy including sculptures, murals and artwork. This summer, the Parks and Recreation Department is holding a Public Art Tour on Sunday, June 28 that will encompass the existing public art installations along with the newest additions to the annual Midwest Sculpture Initiative (MSI), the Cobert C. Collins collection, memorial sculptures and murals.

The tour will begin at the Amphitheater at Alum Creek

ASIAN LONGHORNED BEETLE

NEW THREAT TO POPULAR TREES Tree Talk articles are presented by the Westerville Shade Tree Commission.

Insects have long posed a threat to trees and vegetation, but some are more destructive than others. Over the past few years Westerville, along with many other communities have fought the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) through preventative measures and by removing trees impacted by the insect. Now as the focus on the EAB has diminished a new bug has appeared on the scene threatening even more trees prevalent in Ohio.

The first Ohio report of the Asian Longhorned Beetle (ALB) was in June 2011 in Clermont County. Ohio was the fifth state discovered to have an infestation of the insect. However there is hope as it was successfully eradicated in Illinois and in parts of New Jersey.

Efforts have led to the pest being controlled in New York and Massachusetts. Trees favored by the Asian Longhorned Beetle are predominantly maples, but infestations have also been discovered in horse chestnuts, poplars, willows, elms, mulberries, black locusts and other species.

Once the larvae mature into beetles, they burrow out of the tree leaving holes about the size of a ball-point pen in diameter. The mature beetles emerge starting in late May and continue through October. However the peak time for this to happen is in July. Infestations can be detected through several signs. First are the exit holes as mentioned above. These will often be in the trunk and in larger branches of the crowns of infested trees. Other signs include sap oozing from exit holes and coarse sawdust on the ground or on lower branches.

Damage from ALB is done by the larvae that burrow deep into the trees to feed on its food and water.

Mature beetles range from 0.75-1.25 inches long, with very long black and white antennae. Its body is glossy black with irregular white spots. To report signs or symptoms of ALB, please call the Ohio Survey Program toll free at (855) 252-6450.

DON’T FORGET!

Hydrant Flushing

THE SHADE TREE COMMISSION The Shade Tree Commission meets the second Wednesday of each month, meetings are open to residents and the public. Information on the Commission can be found online at www.westerville.org/ boardsandcommissions. Residents can also contact the Parks and Urban Forest Manager at (614) 901-6598 or matthew.ulrey@westerville.org for information on trees.

Hydrant Flushing starts in the City of Westerville on Sunday, April 26, 2015.

All hydrants are flushed once a year to help clear the water lines of particulates that may build up over time. Crews also check the hydrants and valves for any operational issues which need to be addressed in order to keep the hydrants in good working order.

For a complete schedule visit www.westerville.org/publicservice.

KEEPING WESTERVILLE’S

URBAN FOREST CANOPY ALIVE: THE CRABAPPLE MANAGEMENT PLAN Westerville, a Tree City USA designate, has a glorious tree population. The spring is a particularly spectacular time in Westerville with its flowering species, one being the Flowering Crabapple. By summer, the disease apple scab will leave the Flowering Crabapple population looking sickly.

Although the disease does not kill infected trees outright, these repeated defoliations over the years can reduce the trees vigor, growth and make it more susceptible to disease and ultimately death. Apple scab is caused by a fungus, Venturia inaequalis. The symptoms are most commonly observed on leaves, but fruit, blossoms, and all parts of the tree can become infected. As leaves mature, brown to dark green spots appear near the veins of the leaves in the spring.

Leaves ultimately become distorted, turn yellow and drop off in early summer.

Applescab has a recurrent pattern. As shown in the diagram, this hearty fungus survives the winter in infected leaves that have fallen under the trees. During wet and rainy periods in the spring millions of spores are released into the air and are carried by the wind to newly developing leaves. Although this mostly occurs in April to June, infestations can occur throughout summer and fall. The spore’s effects act quickly, and depending on weather conditions, symptoms (lesions) can show up as early as nine to 17 days.

The Parks and Recreation Department, with the support of the Shade Tree Commission, has developed the Crabapple Management Plan as an approach to remove and replace these trees.

PURPOSE The implementation of the Crabapple Management Plan will help reduce the appearance of leafless trees caused by the apple scab disease. By taking a proactive approach with this plan, it is hoped that new trees can be planted in their place and continue to improve the City’s urban forest canopy.

SCOPE This plan covers all crabapples that are currently growing along streets throughout the City of Westerville. The Department’s Urban Forestry Division is responsible for the implementation of this plan and seeing that its provisions are carried out.

ACTION STATEMENT Residents may make requests directly to the Urban Forestry Division of the Parks Maintenance Department (614) 9016598, for proactive removal of crabapple trees from the City’s tree lawn. Individual requests may not be made for removal of trees from an entire street but only for their own property.

Westerville sees the effects of this disease each summer, so what can be done? Chemical treatments are available to slow the disease, however it requires multiple applications throughout the year during periods of moisture or high humidity. Cost for this treatment is high, as is the time involved to complete the task.

Crews will remove up to 100 Crabapple trees annually as part of this plan making sure resources continue to be available for replacement trees. As part of this management plan, tree replacement is required providing there is adequate spacing.

This plan is expected to continue until a majority of the trees that are highly susceptible to apple scab are removed. The tree inventory will be used to keep a dated record of each removal request.

REPLACEMENT TREES All removed Crabapple trees will be replaced, given adequate spacing, with an approved species of tree as listed in the Street Tree Master List. This will enhance the neighborhood, ensure the diversity of trees and maintain or improve the general health of the urban forest.

CONTINUING PLAN EVALUATION The Crabapple Management Plan, with assistance from the Shade Tree Commission, will be evaluated as needed for any necessary revisions.

Getting Even GREENER WHY RECYCLE?

Along with the soft grass and tall trees, you can now experience a greener lifestyle when visiting a City of Westerville park. The Parks Maintenance Department has installed new blue recycling receptacles in 12 parks, adding to three parks currently using green recycling receptacles.

Americans throw away enough garbage every day to fill 63,000 garbage trucks. It is estimated that at least half of that waste could be recycled. Of the items that could be recycled, there is enough aluminum to rebuild the entire commercial air fleet every three months, enough steel to reconstruct Manhattan, and enough wood to heat five million homes for 200 years. (www2.epa.gov)

(Sports Complex, Hanby Park (Train Depot) and Hoff Woods Park.)

NEED ADDITIONAL REASONS?

New blue recycling receptacles are planned in the following parks: Alum Creek North Park Metzger Park Alum Creek South Park Millstone Creek Park Olde Town Park Hannah Mayne Park Spring Grove North Park Heritage Park Towers Park Highlands Park Walnut Ridge Park Huber Village Park

“We are fortunate Rumpke accepts co-mingled or single stream material, meaning that we do not have to sort the recyclables just like the residential curbside collection,” said Doug Vineyard, Parks and Facilities Superintendent. “But it does have to be acceptable material.”

Recycling: • Saves money • Improves efficiency • Reduces energy use • Reduces water use • Saves landfill space • Improves air quality • Improves water quality • Reduces the rate of global warming Today, this country recycles 34.5% of its waste, a rate that has doubled during the past 20 years.

While recycling has grown in general, recycling of specific materials has grown even more drastically: 70% of all paper, 34% of all plastic bottles, 55% of all aluminum cans, and 70% of all steel cans are now recycled. (www2.epa.gov)

The receptacles can accept PLASTIC BOTTLES, ALUMINUM CANS, GLASS and PAPER mixed together. If the material in the receptacle is contaminated with non-recyclable items it cannot be picked up and processed as recycling and must be diverted to the trash flow into the landfill. Some items that cause the contamination are pet waste, food waste and construction debris. These items may be disposed of in the regular trash receptacles found in the parks.

ALWAYS ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT

Even if you recycle your bottles, cans, paper and cardboard on trash day, you can always do more. The City of Westerville Parks and Recreation Department is offering a free Shredding Day on Saturday, April 18 from 9 a.m. - 12 p.m. at Hoff Woods Park, 556 McCorkle Blvd and the Public Service Department offers a free Household Hazardous Waste drop-off on Saturday, September 15.

Visit www.westerville.org for more information.

“Despite our best efforts to be green and encourage a sustainable lifestyle for the community it does not work if the recyclable material is not deposited correctly,” said Vineyard.

A FEW FACTS ON RECYCLING plastic

Recycling one aluminum can saves enough energy to run a 100 watt light bulb for 20 hours.

a lu

min um

Recycling one ton of plastic saves the equivalent of 1,000-2,000 gallons of gasoline.

Recycling one aluminum can saves enough electricity to run a TV for three hours.

Recycling a pound of steel saves enough energy to light a 60-watt light bulb for 26 hours.

Recycling one aluminum can produces enough power to listen to a full album on your iPod. Recycling 100 cans could light your bedroom for two whole weeks.

Americans use 100 million steel cans and 299 million aluminum beverage cans every day.

g l a ss NEWSPAPER

Recycling one glass bottle or jar saves enough electricity to light a 100-watt bulb for four hours.

Recycling one ton of paper saves the equivalent of two barrels of oil.

Recycling one ton of newspaper saves enough electricity to run a TV for 31 hours.

Running a faucet for five minutes uses up enough energy to run a 60-watt light bulb for 14 hours.

Recycling one ton of paper saves 7,000 gallons of water.

One drip per second from a faucet wastes 540 gallons of water a year.

GYPSY MOTH

UPTOWN PARKING

RESTRICTIONS FOR 2015

UPDATE

The Ohio Department of Agriculture (ODA) has recently completed an analysis of Gypsy Moth populations in Central Ohio, including the Westerville area. Based on their findings, it has been determined that treatment is needed. The ODA, in cooperation with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Forest Service I Forest Health Protection I Gypsy Moth Slow the Spread Program, will be conducting a Gypsy Moth Treatment Project in early to mid-June at the beginning of the mating season.

This treatment does not kill the Gypsy Moth, but reduces the population in the area.

Heading to 4th Fridays, out to dinner in Uptown or doing a little shopping this summer? Construction on the City Hall parking lot will continue through late fall but parking is still available throughout Uptown. Lots can be accessed on E. Home St, behind the buildings from E. Home St. to E. College Ave., as well as along the Brickwalk shops. On the west, lots are available behind the buildings from W. Home St. to W. College Ave. with limited parking behind City Hall. On-street parking is available throughout the Uptown area.

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW • All treatments will be applied from an aircraft flown approximately 50 to 100 feet above the tree tops.

• Disrupt II is specific to gypsy moth and is not harmful to any other species, including humans, threatened or endangered species, or beneficial insects and predators.

• The exact time and date of treatment applications in the area cannot be determined in advance. The timing of treatments is dependent on insect development and environmental conditions.

• Updated information will be placed on the City website, www.westerville.org when it comes available.

Information about the Gypsy Moth and the ODA Gypsy Moth Management Program are available on the website www.agri.ohio.gov when you click on “Gypsy Moth Program.”

REGISTER TODAY:

EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION PORTAL Westerville residents may still register their contact information and preferences via a website portal managed by the Westerville Emergency Communications Division.

Commonly known as the “reverse 9-1-1” system, this site provided residents the opportunity to self-select and update their contact information in the event of emergencies.

“This site expands our capabilities when it comes to communicating with residents during an emergency,” said Holly Wayt, Westerville Communications Manager. “This makes our process of reaching people in an emergency situation not only more reliable and user-friendly but also more targeted in terms of how to get information out quickly.”

Residents who visit https://westerville.onthealert.com or the City website – www.westerville.org – can securely register their mobile phone number, activate text messaging capabilities and assign their home address for local/ neighborhood to receive emergency alert notifications.

Residents without Internet access may sign up by providing information in person at the Westerville Division of Police, 29 S. State St.

Alerts from this system are based on true emergencies, such as disaster notification, public safety information and/or alerts pertaining to missing children, hazardous spills and major power outages. Content is provided by voice message or text, depending on the preferences selected during registration. Subscribers’ information will not be utilized or accessed for any other purpose.

10

People who work in Westerville but do not live in the city or parents who have children in the Westerville City School District may also use the system.

“It makes sense for someone who spends a significant portion of their day in Westerville to be in the system so that they too can get alerts if there’s an emergency,” says Wayt.

To sign up or get more information, please visit www.westerville.org.

A PLAN

FOR

parks

START HERE The Parks, Recreation and Open Spaces Master Plan was updated and adopted by Westerville City Council in 2014. When voters said “yes” late last year, the wheels started to turn in the planning and development of the next generation of the Westerville parks and recreation system.

STA

PATHWAYS: Expand the Bike & Walkway (B&W) Recreational Pathway System

RT

PRIORITIES

ADVENTURE RECREATION: Create Recreation and Adventure Recreation Opportunities along Alum Creek Waterway and Otterbein Lake

SPORTS FIELDS: Develop Additional and Improve Current Sports Fields

NEIGHBORHOOD PARKS: Improve and Enhance Existing Neighborhood Parks COMMUNITY CENTER: Expand the Community Center: • Space to include a relocated older adult center (senior center) • Warm water therapy pool • Fitness and program space • Additional gymnasium • Track expansion

FINISH LINE As a nationally recognized “City within a Park,” Westerville is never done making improvements and enhancing our parks and recreation system. We’re excited to start plotting the course of the new projects. You can get involved! Look for updates in future issues of this publication on volunteer opportunities and read more about PROS online at www.westerville.org/parks.

COMMUNITY We talked to thousands of Westerville residents in focus groups and surveys to understand what residents want in the parks system for the next 20 years. This feedback became the basis for the PROS Master Plan. An Executive Summary of the Master Plan, which outlined the plan outcomes, was sent to all Westerville households.

VOTE RESULTS NEXT STEP Funding for the Master Plan (from the voter-approved income tax renewal) becomes available in 2020, but work is already underway.

Planning, design and development takes place years in advance, so improvements can start as scheduled. City officials also work to secure financing at favorable rates so that projects can begin when the current funding expires (2020) and the renewal goes into effect (2021).

On Tuesday, November 4, Westerville voters said YES to these priorities, as defined in the PROS Master Plan.

FIVE-YEAR PLAN The City of Westerville publishes a five-year capital improvement budget annually. The 2016-2020 plan is currently in development, and hearings with Westerville City Council take place April 11, 2015.

Projects are prioritized in this process. This is the same process that yielded these projects since 1998 (with our current PROS funding): • Westerville Community Center 2001 • Highlands Park Aquatic Center 2011 • Millstone Creek Park 2010 • Westerville Sports Complex 2001 • Everal Barn and Homestead /Heritage Park 2000 • Alum Creek Park North Amphitheater 2001 • Alum Creek South Park BMX/Skate Park 2004 • Spring Grove North Park 2002

“

My son who is 2 ...was very nervous and cried the entire first lesson.

The next lesson, Joey pulled us aside and let us play in the zero entry area and he stayed with us the entire time trying to get Cooper comfortable with the water. Cooper had a blast and by the next lesson he was loving the water. (He) definitely went above and beyond and we are so grateful and want to make sure that (he) knows how much we appreciate everything! How lucky you are to have such caring and fun instructors and what a joy for everyone who gets to experience this class! Thank you very much!

OUTDOOR SERIES

CONTINUES TO EXPAND Outdoor Explorers is one of three nature courses in a specific “Outdoor” series aimed at children of different ages. Outdoor Discoverers and Outdoor Adventurers, along with Outdoor Explorers expose kids to quality time in the parks while learning about various animals and plants that inhabit the region.

“Look what we found! What kind of animal is it?” exclaimed Josie and Vera Johnson, two participants of Outdoor Explorers.

“Those are deer tracks,” explained M.J. Smith, Westerville Parks and Recreation Naturalist.

This dedicated time to experience the natural world provides more benefits than just education. Studies show spending time outdoors can improve social skills, academic performance, stress levels and creativity to name a few.

CONTINUOUS LEARNING “Every time Josie and Vera take this class, they get something new out of it,” said Vanessa Johnson, Josie and Vera’s mom. “They are becoming more attuned to nature, making new friends and developing a great relationship with an adult mentor.”

There are opportunities all around us in nature to learn.

Part of the program is structured, but it is also vital that kids have the opportunity to ask questions, search, and play freely.

“If we didn’t take the time to pause and use the binoculars to spot the red bellied woodpecker, we may have never seen the beautiful color of that particular bird,” said Smith.

For class details on Outdoor Discoverers, Explorers and Adventurers, see pages 36 and 38 or visit the City website at www.westerville.org/parks.

WHAT CAN’T YOU CREATE WITH THIS AMAZING PRODUCT? We have all used it. We have even joked that it can fix any problem. It can event be a purse, wallet, backpack or even a prom dress! Confused?

CREATIVE ARTS New this quarter, Duct Tape Creations will answer the question, What can’t you do with duct tape?

Using colors and fun patterns, participants will learn to make anything from a wallet to flowers.

It is duct tape of course!

Duct tape has been around since World War II when the need for a strong, flexible yet waterproof tape could repair or seal just about anything, plus be easy to carry. The result was today’s duct tape, or as one company fondly calls it – Duck Tape.

For information on dates and times for this fun creative class, see page 43 or visit the City website at www.westerville.org/parks.

After the war, the official army green color was quickly changed to a more neutral gray, but today you can find it in any pattern or color imaginable.

There is even a section for this versatile tape at the local craft stores.

So – what does this have to do with Parks and Recreation? Classes of course!

LOG ROLLING COMES TO WESTERVILLE Log rolling has a history that dates back more than 100 years. As America was growing, the need for lumber grew as well. Lumberjacks transported logs down local waterways and frequently jumped from log to log on the rivers to keep wood moving downstream. After bringing their logs downriver, the lumberjacks would have a friendly competition to see who can balance on a log the longest while it is still rolling in the river.

So what does this have to do with Westerville?

Log rolling has come to the Parks and Recreation Department in the form of classes.

“We’re always looking to bring new adventure programs to the Community Center,” said Darcy Baxter, Program Manager for Westerville Parks and Recreation.

HEALTHY ACTIVE LIFESTYLE Beyond the fun factor, log rolling proves to be a wellrounded workout, improving balance, coordination, endurance and foot speed. It also strengthens mental focus and concentration.

“Since you are having a good time, the physical fitness aspect of log rolling sneaks up; and you end up getting a really good workout. Your legs are constantly moving while your core is stabilizing the rest of your body,” explained Baxter.

Classes officially began in spring 2015 at the Community Center, but because of the overwhelming demand, additional classes as well as introductory courses have been added for the summer at Highlands Park Aquatic Center.

For information on available classes, see page 58 or visit the City website at www.westerville.org/parks. Visit acitywithinapark.com, the Parks and Recreation blog, for a complete story on Log Rolling.

The 96,000-square-foot facility, opened November 2001, was designed to bring the outside in. When residents and visitors enter the rotunda they are treated to a panoramic view of many of the features of the Center including the track and fitness room, gymnasium, climbing wall, indoor leisure pool, indoor playground, and teen room.

The information desk serves as the central location for visitor’s questions, registration and pass sales.

Residents have the option to pay daily admissions, purchase a pass for individual features of the facility or purchase an ultimate pass, which is the most economical and includes admission to all features.

The rotunda leads to two wings, an activity wing and a program wing. Just a short trip down the north corridor takes visitors to the activity wing and to a checkpoint station where daily admissions are taken and passes are scanned for the fitness room, aquatics center, track and gymnasium. Just down the south corridor resides the program wing featuring a cluster of multi-functional rooms designed to host a variety of events. The program wing has six reservable rooms and is where recreation and fitness classes are conducted, child care is housed, and rental facilities are located.

The Community Center also offers meeting and gathering space.

Our staff has been proud to serve the hundreds of thousands who have benefited from this facility.
