Get Creative During Construction

FUN OUTDOORS THIS FALL

With the Community Center Expansion in full swing, sections are taking shape and will open as they are completed. Some of these areas, including the playground, teen room and childcare area are used throughout the year, but have a higher attendance once school is back in session. So, what do you do in the meantime?

Outdoor Fun this Fall You may have noticed that many areas you would normally attend will be closed into the fall season. This is the perfect time to get outside and enjoy everything Westerville Parks and Recreation has to offer through its parks, nature areas, wetlands and trails.

Parks with Playgrounds Westerville parks are maintained through all four seasons, but bathrooms and water fountains will be closed and winterized when colder weather comes.

The playgrounds will remain open, so watch the weather for the best days to get outdoor activity this fall. Temperatures typically hover in the 50-60 degree range through much of October, which may be a great sweater-weather play alternative until the Community Center indoor play area reopens.

Nature Areas

WETLANDS

Fall is great time for a long, cool hike in one of many natural areas preserved for outdoor activity. The smell of the season and crunch of the leaves marks a special time of year. Take the opportunity to watch for wildlife as nature begins its own process to “hibernate” for the winter.

Wetlands may seem most alive in the warmer months, but there is still much to explore as the temperatures cool. The vegetation will change, but the wetlands are still doing their job helping manage stormwater and treat pollutants.

The properties around the wetlands also provide a peaceful and tranquil environment for a walk or run.

Westerville’s Recreational TRAIL System With 51 miles of recreational trails that run through parks, wooded areas, fields and roads as well as along streets and through neighborhoods, the City’s recreational trail system is traversed by thousands of residents and visitors each week. Some of the most popular trails follow: ALUM CREEK TRAIL From the dead end north of County Line Road, south through the Sports Complex through Heritage Park to Main Street, east to Alum Creek, south across the historical bridge, under Schrock Road to the Westerville Corporate limits.

BIG WALNUT CREEK TRAIL County Line Road at Sunbury Road south through the tunnel just north of Marlene Drive, along Hoover Reservoir to Central College Road.

COUNTY LINE TRAIL From the Ohio to Erie Trail west across Alum Creek to Worthington Road.

SHOP UPTOWN

this Small Business Saturday Uptown is the heart of Westerville and a vibrant area to shop, play and dine.

With the Uptown Improvements and Columbia Gas projects on pause for the holiday shopping season, residents are encouraged to head to State Street this Small Business Saturday, Nov. 30.

A nationwide movement, Small Business Saturday encourages shoppers to patronize local businesses during the busy holiday shopping season.

Find more information about Uptown at www.westerville.org/uptown.

Uptown Improvement Project Schedule Work began in late July with sidewalk improvements in front of Hanby Elementary School (56 S. State St.) The new sidewalk is Americans with Disability Act (ADA) compliant, and now wider.

The project schedule (below) was crafted to follow the work of Columbia Gas to replace gas lines under the roadway.

The City’s work will continue through November and then resume early next year.

THROUGH MID-SEPTEMBER: Installing the new gas main and installation of services on the west side of State Street between College and Home.

EARLY AUGUST TO NOVEMBER: City begins Uptown Improvements in areas not impacted by Columbia Gas. THROUGH LATE OCTOBER: Installing the new gas main and installation services on the east side of State Street between College and Home.

Work on both projects will be suspended from Nov. 1 - Dec. 31 to reduce disruption to the holiday season in Uptown and will resume in January 2020.

Learn About the City’s

Proposed New Police/Court Facility This November, Westerville voters will decide whether to proceed with plans to consolidate multiple Police and Mayor’s Court facilities and operations into a single location at 229 Huber Village Blvd. Acquired by the City last August, this 29,000-square-foot building would be remodeled and expanded by an additional 33,000 square feet to provide a 62,000-square-foot facility to meet the immediate and long-term space needs of the Police Division and Mayor’s Court. Estimated construction costs are approximately $15 million that would be financed through a voter-approved, 0.96 mill 20-year bond issue.

This initiative addresses long-standing functional space needs of the Police Division while providing a more united and efficient workspace as well as improved safety for the public and staff associated with the Mayor’s Court in City Hall.

The long-standing needs of the Police Division have been evaluated for over a decade with a 2012 study finding a space deficiency of over 20,000 square feet and citing poor or inadequate conditions for specific areas, such as the firing range, evidence storage, training areas, and workspace allocated to community services & crime prevention. The Mayor’s Court, having operated out of City Hall and Council Chambers since its inception, has increasingly represented safety and security concerns for Court patrons, City Hall staff and the general public.

After renovation and expansion, the new combined Police/ Court facility would house all WPD bureaus under one roof including Investigations, Emergency Communications and Court operations. Currently, these operations are dispersed across three separate City buildings (21, 28 and 29 S. State St., respectively, in Uptown Westerville).

Find more information at www.westerville.org/policecourtfacility.

Ultimately, the decision to proceed with the project belongs to the voters, who will see the issue on their Nov. 5 ballots. The 0.96 mill, 20-year bond issue would cost property owners an additional $2.80 per month for every $100,000 of home value. If approved, the additional cost will not hit tax bills until 2021.

Upon completion of this project, the City intends to renovate the current police headquarters building adjacent to City Hall and relocate the City operations at 64 E. Walnut (Planning & Development, Income Tax & Utility Billing, Information Systems) there as a separate project. This approach would allow the City to sell the old Post Office at 28 S. State, 64 E. Walnut, and the Armory facility on S. State St. that would reduce the City’s overall footprint in Uptown and provide some relief for parking.

Expanded First Responders Park REOPENS THIS FALL

After months of construction and reconfiguration, Westerville’s First Responders Park (FRP) will reemerge in its newly expanded state this fall at 374 W. Main St. The park is expected to officially open in October.

The park was first dedicated in 2010 to honor the service and sacrifice of all first responders.

The centerpiece to the park, a section of steel known as “C-40” from the north tower of the World Trade Center that fell during the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, will remain a prominent feature. Also remaining in the park is “The Crossing,” a privately funded sculpture which honors a fallen Westerville firefighter, David Theisen who was killed while battling a fire as a volunteer in Crooksville, Ohio.

“First Responders Park had long been eyed for expansion due to its small size and the road noise that often disrupted important observances,” said Westerville City Manager David Collinsworth. “These plans were expedited after the events of February 10, 2018, when the City tragically lost Officers Anthony P. Morelli and Eric Joering in the line of duty.”

When construction is complete, the community will have a permanent place honoring law enforcement, fire and EMS, Emergency Communications and Chaplains.

Landscape architecture firms POD Design and McGill Smith Punshon provided design services free of charge to honor Officers Morelli and Joering.

Learn more about FRP at www.westerville.org/frp.

First Responders Park Funding The City of Westerville would like to thank the community for their generosity in bringing this newly expanded park to life.

Celebrating the City’s

INFORMATION SYSTEMS

DID YOU KNOW?

IT Professionals

November 13 is GIS Day!

The third Tuesday in September, the City takes time to recognize the men and women of the Westerville Information Systems (IS) Division for “IT Professionals Day.” You won’t see them racing by in shiny red fire trucks, police cruisers with lights and sirens, or in heavy-duty service vehicles, but these tireless professionals are heroes in their own right.

Like other local governments and businesses, the City relies heavily on its computer systems to provide services to the public. The primary function of Information Systems is to lead and assist City departments in the use of information technology as a tool to pursue their respective business objectives.

Westerville’s Geographical Information System (GIS) team loves to celebrate this day by visiting Westerville City School students and teaching them about how maps help the City navigate to a better future.

It’s this team that helped contribute to the City’s recognition as a Top 7 Intelligent Community, an international recognition by the Intelligent Community Forum (ICF). Westerville was one of only three cities from the United States to receive this prestigious distinction.

A City like Westerville never sleeps and the IS team is tasked with keeping critical technology running 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. Below is a high-level look at the tasks this team manages:

Municipally-Owned, Westerville-Managed

City Takes On Operational Management of WeConnect Data Center Westerville has the distinction of being home to the nation’s first and only municipally-owned data center. In the past, the WeConnect Data Center has been overseen by the City’s Information Systems (IS) Division with operations managed by a third party. The City’s IS team has taken on those responsibilities.

“WeConnect poses a unique advantage for attracting and retaining businesses to Westerville. We feel the City’s IS team is in a good position to continue providing the outstanding service that our customers expect,” said Westerville City Manager David Collinsworth.

With 40 miles of high-speed fiber and services including colocation, WeConnect offers speeds and services at an affordable rate to businesses of all sizes from its 16,000 sq. ft. facility.

Security is a top priority. The fiber network is a 100 Gigabit private connection giving clients a direct connection to their server and internet, allowing user content to never be rerouted through internet nodes.

Learn more about the WeConnect Data Center at www.weconnectdatacenter.com.

MAP OUT YOUR FALL FOLIAGE ADVENTURE IN WESTERVILLE This fall, leaf enthusiasts need not wander about looking for the best and brightest foliage in the City. Westerville’s Geographic Information Systems (GIS) team, in partnership with the City’s Urban Forestry team, maintains a tree viewer map on the City’s website.

This interactive map allows users to search for their favorite tree types and find their exact locations, allowing them to plot out the best foliage viewing spots in the City.

Protecting Westerville’s SOURCE WATER

WATER DIVISION

The City of Westerville operates and maintains a large network of inlets, pipes, ditches, ponds, wetlands and other stormwater features.

As part of the Spring Road Improvements project, the City is deploying a new stormwater management system using underground detention chambers that will help release stormwater more slowly to minimize downstream impacts of runoff. The system will also help improve Westerville’s source water by adding extra filtration measures.

“The City prioritizes projects that have the greatest impact on the health, safety and welfare of the community,” said Westerville City Engineer Scott Tourville. “The reconstruction of Spring Road presented the opportunity to implement this new system that will help protect Westerville’s most crucial natural resource-water.”

In addition to the detention chambers, the project will install pre-manufactured water quality devices to remove sediments and trash from the runoff as well. These systems and devices aid in our sustainable stormwater management practices.

Westerville is seated within both the Alum Creek and Big Walnut watersheds. Staff works within federal, state and local laws to protect water quantity and quality within these watersheds.

During rains or snow melts, water drains from paved surfaces (streets, parking lots, etc.) and lawns carrying with it litter, improperly-stored chemicals and other pollutants. Ultimately, this water ends up in local streams and creeks.

The City takes every precaution to protect its source water (and thoroughly cleans all water before it is sent to homes), residents and visitors can play a big part in keeping this resource clean.

REMEMBER TO:

Pick up trash and debris around your yard and neighborhood.

Simply check the forecast before applying lawn fertilizer to ensure it has plenty of time to settle before the next rain.

Include trees in your landscaping; they can soak up 900 gallons of rain per year.

Learn more about the City’s stormwater management program at www.westerville.org.

The Westerville Division of Fire (WFD) is joining the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) in encouraging families to create and practice a home escape plan in the event of a fire. The practice will be a central theme of WFD’s annual Fire Prevention Week Open House on Sunday, Oct. 13 from 1-4 p.m. at Station 111 (400 W. Main St.) “We can’t emphasize the importance enough of being prepared. It’s crucial that the entire family understands exactly what they should do in the event of a fire, or any disaster, in the home,” said Westerville Fire Chief Brian Miller. “If the worst happens, it can make all the difference.”

According to the NFPA, U.S. fire departments responded to 357,000 home structure fires in 2017. These fires resulted in 2,630 fire deaths and 10,600 injuries.

Fire Prevention Open House Sunday, Oct. 13 1-4 p.m.

Station 111 400 W. Main St.

“It’s not just at home, your family should know what to do in the event of a fire in any location. Be sure to point out fire exits to your children as you visit locations and set a meeting place in the event of an emergency,” Chief Miller said.

Chief Miller makes it clear that the goal is not to alarm, but to help families understand the importance of planning ahead.

WFD’s open house event will help families start preparing while participating in fun activities like games and puppet shows. Can’t make it to Station 111? Westerville Stations 112 (727 E. Schrock Rd.) and 113 (355 N. Spring Rd.) will hold open house hours and offer tours from 1-4 p.m. on Oct. 13, also.

Learn more at www.westerville.org/fire.

If your in-home smoke detectors are more than 10 years old, they need to be replaced!

The Westerville Division of Fire is partnering with the American Red Cross to offer free smoke detectors and installation for Westerville and Blendon Township families. Simply put: you call, we’ll install.

Call (614) 901-6600 to schedule your appointment and a Westerville Fire Division team member will visit your home to install your brand new smoke detector free of charge.

National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Weekend This October 5-6, thousands will gather at the National Fire Academy in Emmitsburg, Md. to honor men and women in the fire service who have died in the line of duty. In its 38th year, the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Weekend features programs for colleagues and families of the fallen, as well as public ceremonies.

Included on a plaque at the monument is the name of David Theisen, a Westerville firefighter who died in 1998 while battling a fire in Crooksville, Ohio. He is also memorialized with a statue called, “The Crossing,” in Westerville’s remodeled First Responders Park, 374 W. Main St., set to reopen this fall. For more information about National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Weekend, visit www.firehero.org.

Moving Forward: Help the City Prioritize Mobility Improvements Westerville has been studying mobility - how we use transportation, the ways and manners in which we move from place to place - for several years as we make investments to improve roadways, recreational trails, sidewalks and more. With a plan now in draft format, residents are encouraged to share their thoughts on how to prioritize future mobility improvements through an online survey closing Friday, Aug. 30. The link to the survey can be found at www.westerville.org/mobility.

Focused on community building, the effort to produce the Westerville Strategic Mobility Plan is intentionally collaborative every step of the way. Residents shared their input about what specific improvements should be made to make cycling, walking and other means of moving easier and safer in Westerville in 2018. The City used that feedback to draft a plan, which will be presented to City Council in the fall.

Ultimately, the plan will help guide future decisions per considerations set forth in the Westerville Community Plan.

Now, the draft plan sets the stage for the future decisions which will: Improve mobility options, making it easier to bike, walk, ride public transportation and drive in our community and connect to the region.

Enhance quality of life, making it safer for youth to get to school, the workforce to get to their places of employment and for people to move about the City in a way that is pleasing to them.

Support future and ongoing development, accommodating growth is key to ensuring Westerville can remain economically competitive and vibrant. See the Westerville Community Plan to learn about the City’s vision.

COPY THAT: Cops & Kids Day Expands into Festival Mode The much-loved Cops & Kids Day event held every September by the Westerville Division of Police (WPD) is expanding. Now called the Cops & Kids Day Festival, the community celebration will feature food trucks when it returns on Sunday, Sept. 15 from 12-4 p.m. along County Line Road, between Vesper Way and Cleveland Avenue.

Cops & Kids Day is growing to welcome food trucks because the Westerville Area Resource Ministry (WARM) will not hold the Great Westerville Food Truck Festival this year. Instead, 20-25 food trucks and carts will set up shop in the parking lot at the Westerville Sports Complex (325 N. Cleveland Ave.) to serve attendees.

Sunday, Sept. 15 12 - 4 p.m.

(Rain Date: Sunday, Sept. 22)

Designed to build positive relationships between law enforcement and community members, the event brings together thousands of families with local agencies. The event creates opportunities for children to meet friendly law enforcement officers, explore helicopters and cruisers and more.

The first 1,500 children to attend will receive a free gift. Learn more about the 2019 Cops & Kids Day Festival at www.westerville.org/copskids.

Watch What You Toss:

Trashing Batteries Can Be Dangerous The Westerville Electric Division is joining Rumpke in encouraging residents to avoid throwing batteries in with their curbside trash and recycling because they can cause fires in collection trucks and at the landfill.

When batteries, especially lithium ion, are taken into Rumpke trucks and processed, they can break and spark fires that burn quickly when surrounded by other refuse.

Instead of tossing batteries in the trash, bring them to the Westerville Electric Division at 139 E. Broadway Ave. for safe recycling. Accepted batteries include: lithium (rechargeable), leadacid wet cell (vehicles) and typical household (AA, AAA, C, D etc.).

When enough batteries are collected, they will be taken to the Westerville Public Service Department for safe disposal.

For more information, call the Electric Division at (614) 901-6700, email electric@westerville.org or visit www.westerville.org/electric.

PREPARE FOR LEAF COLLECTION SEASON

As leaves in the City lose their colors, the Westerville Public Service Department Road Warriors are readying themselves for another leaf collection season after a challenging 2018 season.

PUBLIC SERVICE

“We saw a substantial increase in leaves collected in 2018, with 6,704 cubic yards collected compared to 4,500 cubic yards collected in 2017,” said Westerville Public Service Director Kevin Weaver. “Paired with the later than usual leaf drop, we had our work cut out for us.”

The Public Service Department asks residents to follow the below guidelines to help ensure a successful leaf collection program: • Rake all leaves to the tree lawn (between the sidewalk and the street), but not in the street, the night before the start of your scheduled collection.

• Ensure leaf piles are free of large sticks, twigs and any trash or debris that could cause damage to the leaf collection equipment and injuries to personnel.

• Avoid parking vehicles in front of leaves during collection times.

Please contact the Public Service Department with any questions or concerns at (614) 901-6740 or publicservice@westerville.org.

For more information about the program, schedule and status updates visit www.westerville.org/leafcollection.

Westerville Named

National Gold Medal Finalist The City of Westerville Parks & Recreation Department will soon learn if it has been named the National Recreation and Parks Association’s (NRPA) 2019 National Gold Medal winner. The winner will be announced at the NRPA General Session at the 2019 NRPA Annual Conference in Baltimore, Maryland, Sept. 24–26, 2019.

Westerville was named a finalist in May. The City joins three other finalists in its class that will compete for the National Recreation and Park Association’s (NRPA) highest award. If awarded, Westerville will be a five-time Gold Medal winning department. The department previously won the Gold Medal in 1974, 2003, 2007 and 2013 (the last year in which it was eligible).

The American Academy for Park and Recreation Administration (AAPRA), in partnership with NRPA, announced Westerville as one of four finalists for the 2019 National Gold Medal Awards for Excellence in Park and Recreation Management in its Class IV category, communities serving a population of 30,001 – 75,000. This year’s sponsor of the Gold Medal Awards program is Musco Lighting LLC. Founded in 1965, the Gold Medal Awards program honors communities in the U.S. that demonstrate excellence in parks and recreation through

long-range planning, resource management, volunteerism, environmental stewardship, program development, professional development and agency recognition. Applications are separated into seven classes, with five classes based on population, one class for armed forces recreation and one class for state park systems awarded on odd-numbered years.

“As a four-time gold medal winner, we are thrilled to have this opportunity to continue the tradition,” said Randy Auler, Westerville Parks & Recreation Director. “Westerville’s history with the gold medal, along with the support from our residents, participants and community partners, are reasons why our parks system has an outstanding reputation.”

Agencies are judged on their ability to address the needs of those they serve through the collective energies of citizens, staff and elected officials.

A panel of five park and recreation professionals reviews and judges all application materials.

Judges are chosen for their considerable experience and knowledge in parks and recreation on both the local and national levels.

For more information on the Gold Medal Awards, visit www.nrpa.org/awards or www.aapra.org.

City Financial Assistance Program

Parks for All

Westerville Parks and Recreation serves more than 850,000 people annually, but all too often families encounter financial barriers to participating in health, wellness and recreational programming.

The City of Westerville Financial Assistance Program is offered to residents living within the City of Westerville corporate limits, enabling them to purchase a Community Center pass or register for programs.

Financial assistance eligibility is determined by total household income in relation to a percentage multiplier of the Federal Poverty Guidelines. The National School Lunch Program standard is used as the guideline.

Applications for the program can be downloaded at www.westerville.org/parksforall and returned with all necessary materials to the Westerville Community Center (350 N. Cleveland Ave.) For more information, please call Westerville Parks and Recreation at (614) 901-6509.

NEW HEMPSTEAD ROAD PARK Taking Shape

One of the newest parks in Westerville’s future will be in final design this fall, with construction expected to begin next year. To be built on the former residential site at 480 S. Hempstead Rd., the parks will serve both local neighborhoods in the southeastern quadrant of the City, as well as offer new amenities to attract visitors across the community.

Below: Reference images for design intent only.

Final play structure will be modified for budget purposes and site constraints.

City staff will spend the fall season finalizing designs for the new park at 480 S. Hempstead Rd. Construction is expected to begin in 2020.

The park, located in the southeastern quadrant of Westerville, is not a new idea. The Westerville Parks & Recreation master plan (Parks, Recreation and Open Spaces-or PROS), which helps guide planning and investment for a park to serve the community and neighborhoods on this side of town. When the property at 480 S. Hempstead Rd. near McVay Elementary became available, the City acquired it to begin plotting a course to fulfill that vision.

Starting with a series of public meetings earlier this year, conceptual plans were developed based on resident feedback for the site. A design was developed to pay homage to the McVay family, the original landowners, who were deeply philanthropic and loved nature. Akin to other parks and green spaces in Westerville, the theme centers around nature while implementing play features and recreational opportunities.

The plan includes the preservation of mature trees on the property. Fun, whimsical and educational elements will maintain and embellish the site’s natural character the McVay family sought to preserve. Also included is a realigned entry drive and bridge, shelter, restroom, trail network, elevated play elements, nature play area, creek interaction zone and meadow as well as a parking lot for visitors.

To learn more about this future park and review the design concepts, visit www.westerville.org/parks.

Brings Fall Magic to City Westerville Parks and Recreation will present four days of fall whimsy at The Great Westerville Glow from Oct. 23- 27 at Heritage Park, 60 N. Cleveland Ave. Tickets cost $12 for adults and $10 for children.

“This is the first event of its kind to come to Westerville, we wanted to make sure we did it right,” Auler said. “A lot of hard work and careful planning went into bringing this vision to life.”

The park, which houses the historic Everal Barn, will transform into a fall wonderland featuring a quarter-mile wooded trail aglow with family-friendly carved pumpkins.

Additionally, attendees will be invited to bring their own carved gourds to contribute to a Community Jack-oLantern garden on site and participate in fun games. Food trucks will be available as well.

The City has contracted TORK Collaborative Arts to help put on the event. Thousands of carved pumpkins are expected to be on display. Several scenes will be created in partnership with Westerville City School students.

The event comes to the City after years of planning.

Westerville Parks and Recreation Director Randy Auler says his team has worked thoughtfully to bring the best value to Westerville residents and visitors.

Find more information about the Great Westerville Pumpkin Glow at www.westerville.org/pumpkinglow.

Wednesday, Oct. 23 - Sunday, Oct. 27 6:30-10:30 p.m.

STAFF PROFILE DERRICK MCPEAK, ARTS PROGRAM SUPERVISOR Fall 2019

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THIS CAREER PATH? After working in professional theatre for a few years, I wanted to find a career path that had a more direct impact on the community and it’s members. Being able to infuse the arts into the Westerville community and see its direct impact is very rewarding.

WHAT IS A TYPICAL DAY LIKE FOR YOU ON THE JOB? The summer months are very fast-paced. In a typical day I can be building scenery for a theatrical production, writing contracts for instructors, confirming travel arrangements for visiting artists, setting up venues for performances or shopping for some strange prop for a production. As an arts and entertainment professional in the public sector you have to wear many hats. Every day is a new adventure.

WHAT’S THE BEST THING ABOUT YOUR JOB AT THE CITY? The best thing about my job is the wide variety of work I get to do.

WHAT IS THE MOST REWARDING EXPERIENCE YOU HAVE HAD IN YOUR YEARS WITH THE CITY? There are two: The Towers Park Art Shelter project and the civic theatre program as a whole. The collaboration with fellow artists on community enriching projects is one of the most gratifying experiences.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN IN THIS FIELD OF WORK? I have worked in the Parks and Recreation field for just more than six years.

EDUCATION Bachelor of Arts, Theatre from Otterbein University FAMILY INFORMATION I come from a large family. I have eight siblings and 12 nieces and nephews!

WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO DO IN YOUR LEISURE TIME? I like to spend my leisure time gardening, both indoors and out. I have a collection of more than 20 species of tropical house plants.

MILITARY BANNER PROGRAM Returns to Westerville

The City will once again honor the sons and daughters of Westerville with the Military Banner Program. Applications will be available at Westerville City Hall (21 S. State St.) and at www.westerville.org/militarybanners beginning at 8 a.m. on Monday, Jan. 6.

In its inaugural year, Westerville residents honored 42 men and women through the program.

Applicants are invited to submit on behalf of themselves or family members who are currently serving or hold Veteran status from a branch of the U.S. Armed Forces (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard).

The program will feature the individual’s military photo on full-color, double-sided banners on light poles in Uptown Westerville along State Street, between Home and Walnut Streets.

The banners may be purchased for $130; reservations for space are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis beginning in January 2020. First priority for the program will be given to Westerville residents (proof of residency will be required e.g. copy of utility bill, driver’s license).

Second priority will extend to residents of the Westerville City School District (WCSD).

A high-resolution digital image or scan of their military member’s photo(s) must be provided by each applicant.

High-resolution means it is at least 300 dots-per-inch (DPI) ensuring the photos contain enough detail for print quality purposes.

Banners will be displayed during the month of May and again in November to coincide with Veterans’ Day. After a banner is posted for the two-month terms, it will be returned to the individual(s) who purchased it the first week of December 2020. The applicant must be an immediate family member (spouse, parent, sibling, grandchild or legal guardian) of the service member.

Eligibility

To download the program policy, visit www.westerville.org/militarybanners.

Service member must be active duty OR a veteran and a current or former resident within the City of Westerville OR Westerville City School District OR an immediate family member (spouse, parent, sibling, grandchild or legal guardian) of a resident within the Westerville City School District. (See below.)

For the purposes of this program, “armed forces” are defined as meaning the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard, per section 101(a)(4) of title 10, United States Code. Also for the purpose of this program, “active duty” is defined as full-time active military service to the United States as defined in section 101(d)(1) of title 10, United States Code.

This program is offered on a first-come, first-served basis. First priority for the program will be given to Westerville residents (proof of residency will be required e.g. copy of utility bill, driver’s license).

The Westerville Parks & Recreation Department is pleased to offer online registration for classes, programs and shelters. Online registration streamlines the process of registering by eliminating the need to wait in long lines on registration day.

Any household that has previously participated in a Parks and Recreation program, pass, or facility reservation may already have an online account.

Those wanting to sign up for the first time will need to create an account through our online registration site www.westerville.org /registration. Click “Create an Account” and follow the prompts.

Proof of residency is required in order to be eligible for the discounted resident rates.

With your active online account, you will be able to view class information, process registration and reservations, make secure credit card payments and view class enrollment counts from your home or office 24 hours a day! You can even make changes to your household and member’s information–fast, easy and secure. User name/passwords and household information can be changed once you log in. Click on “My Accounts.”

Visit the Westerville Community Center during the hours listed on page 35. Participants may register for ONE additional household other than their own during the registration process. Resident restrictions still apply. Senior Center members may register online or at the Community Center on Saturday and the Senior Center on Monday.

HOW TO UPDATE YOUR RESIDENCY STATUS WITH WESTERVILLE PARKS AND RECREATION AND UTILITY BILLING: Contact Utility Billing at (614) 901-6430 or askutilitybilling@westerville.org to ensure your phone number is current.

Contact Parks and Recreation at (614) 901-6500 or parksandrec@westerville.org to confirm the phone number associated with your Utility Billing account and Parks and Recreation account are the same.

Therefore, to be considered a “Resident” in our registration process, you must live or work full time within the corporate City Limits of Westerville or be a spouse or child of such person.

“Non-resident” applies to all others. Even though you may have a Westerville mailing address or live within the school district, you may not live within the Westerville City Limits.

Resident/Non-resident Rates To receive discounted resident rates, Westerville residents will be required to present identification such as a valid driver’s license, photo ID card, utility bill or pay with a check with an address printed by the bank. Individuals employed full time in the Westerville City Limits will need to provide proof of employment on company letterhead with the signature of the personnel director or president or a current paycheck with their employer’s name and address along with a valid driver’s license. If a household has been granted residency status due to providing proof of Westerville income tax withholding and it is later revealed that a full refund of these taxes occurred, the City of Westerville reserves the right to collect the difference between the resident fee paid originally for the activity or pass and the appropriate non-resident fee.

A $5.50 resident ID card may be purchased for registration and admission convenience.

Arupa is advanced yoga without advanced postures that includes a group setting for personal practice - with expert supervision.

Suggestions abound, but the choice is the student’s. Specific instructions are more about “how” than “what” to do. Safely discover your own authentic practice - among friends.

Based on Hatha yoga postures and principles, the pace is slower to make the power of yoga accessible to people of all ages and fitness levels. The focus will be on breathing in combination with stretches and gentle postures which will have a calming and centering effect. Must be able to get to and from the floor.
