Spring is here, so our features on environmental stewards (pgs 6 - 13) share practical tips and information Westerville residents can use at home for stormwater protection, rain gardens, recycling and more.

Business news starts with Western Alliance Bank, a $2.2 million financial technology investment in Westerville (pg 15), along with the opening of the new headquarters of Vertiv (pg 16).

The Westerville Division of Police will host the inaugural Westerville Peace Officer Academy, beginning in May at the Justice Center (pg 18). This first-time program will help train future police officers in Westerville and surrounding areas at our state-of-the-art facility. And, don’t miss the

State of the City on March 16 at the Renaissance Columbus Westerville-Polaris Hotel (pg 23). It’s free and open to the community, so we invite you to join us as we talk about growth and opportunity. Lastly, it’s time to take the biennial resident satisfaction survey (see below).

Visit www.westerville.org for full details, along with a list of great springtime events, including the Spring Eggstravaganza (pg 27) and Civitans Inclusive egg hunt (pg 26) coming in April.

Resident Survey Open Through April 26

The 2023 Westerville Resident Survey, a once-every-two-years opportunity to tell the City your opinions and level of satisfaction with public programs and services, is available through April 26. Residents received a special household code in the postal mail (postcard) in late February to access the survey online.

This survey allows residents to rate parks, infrastructure, public services, safety and much more. Outcomes help the City set priorities and evaluate the delivery of programs at the neighborhood level.

In 2021, residents reported high levels of satisfaction in Westerville. Public safety and fiscal management/responsibility was ranked as the “most important issues,” while residents expressed frustration with construction and traffic. Included this year is a special section to gauge opinions about community engagement.

Feedback will help the City better understand resident preferences on special events, public service opportunities and overall communication.

For more information, or to participate, please visit www.westerville.org and follow one of several survey links from the front page of the website. Survey results will be public on the City website in June.

Westerville Recognizes Arab American Heritage Month

In April, the U.S. Department of State recognizes National Arab American Heritage Month, honoring the contributions of this diverse community to America. The United States is home to more than 3.7 million Arab Americans, representing 22 different countries who have come from throughout the Arab world. In 2022, President Joe Biden became the first sitting president in U.S. history to officially recognize April as National Arab American Heritage Month.

The term “Arab” itself is both cultural and linguistic. It references people who may speak Arabic as a first language. “Arab” is not a race of people; individuals who are Arab share a history, culture and, in some cases, religion. Many Arab-identifying people practice the Muslim religion, but there are also Jewish Arabs and Christian Arabs across the United States and around the world.

According to the Arab American Institute, the population of those who identify as Arabic-speaking in the U.S. grew more than 42% between 2000 and 2017. The number of Ohioans who claim Arab ancestry has more than doubled since the Census first measured ethnic origins in 1980. Ohio’s Arab American population is ranked eighth in the nation, with the statewide population of Arab Americans at approximately 115,190 people.The largest population of Arab Americans comes from Iraq, Jordan, Egypt and Lebanon.

Arab Americans aren’t “new immigrants” to the United States. In fact, the first Arab American immigrants arrived in the late 19th century to seek

economic opportunity, freedom equality and to escape the oppressive Ottoman rule. A second wave of immigrants came to America in the 1950s and 1960s, fleeing the 1948 Palestine-Israel War and revolutions throughout the Arab world. Immigration to the U.S. continues today for those seeking asylum from war, violence, poverty and human rights violations.

Despite such adversity, Arab Americans continue to make culturally significant contributions to all facets of American society. Hassan Kamel AlSabbah, who immigrated to the U.S. in 1921, is credited with pioneering technology that led to the development of the LCD screens we know today. In 1966, Michael Debakey, of Lebanese descent, was the first doctor to use an artificial heart in a surgical procedure. Nujoud Merancy is the current Chief of the Exploration Mission Planning Office for NASA, where she manages the creation of the Artemis mission, which plans to land the first woman on the moon. These innovators are just a small sample of the many Arab Americans working to make a difference.

The story of Arab Americans is the story of America. This diverse community with rich cultural heritage and history illustrates how the immigrant experience has shaped not only our country, but the fabric of our society and how the heritage and history of Arab Americans have contributed to the building of a better nation.

ENVIRONMENTAL

SUSTAINABILITY

It’s a big deal in Westerville.

In fact, it is one of the lenses through which we consider the decisions we make and actions we take. This is a community that maximizes current and emerging opportunities for environmental sustainability, including enthusiastic participation in programs that divert waste and save energy, minimizing negative impacts on our treasured biodiversity and protecting our source water.

As you’ll read in the pages that follow, even the most simple of steps can make a big difference in maintaining excellent environmental stewardship in Westerville. Participating in food-waste composting, picking up litter in a park and taking the time to ensure you are recycling correctly are just a few ways Westerville residents can make a big difference.

Stormwater Management:

Why It’s Important

Managing the quantity and quality of stormwater is a crucial asset to the City’s sustainability efforts. Federal, state and local regulations require stormwater management programs to improve waterways by reducing the number of pollutants collected by stormwater as it travels through storm sewer systems. As required by the U.S. EPA, these management programs provide communities with clean and affordable drinking water, safe recreational opportunities and protect property from flooding. These programs aim to reduce the impact of stormwater runoff and surface water on our sewer systems.

Franklin Country Soil and Water Conservation District reports, common pollutants include oil and grease from roadways, pesticides from lawns, sediment from construction sites, bacteria from failing septic systems and carelessly discarded trash. When deposited into nearby waterways, these pollutants can impair the waterways, thereby discouraging recreational use of the resource, contaminating drinking water supplies and impairing the habitat of fish, other aquatic organisms and wildlife.

PREVENT STORMWATER POLLUTION STEPS YOU CAN TAKE TO HELP:

Here are some things that you can do to help:

• Pick up litter!

• Use environmentally friendly materials and follow application instructions carefully for fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides to maximize your outcome with the least impact.

• Never put anything into a stormwater drain other than stormwater. A single gallon of oil can pollute 100,000 gallons of water.

• Use car washes or environmentally friendly cleaners to limit soap from reaching our waterways.

• Do not disturb or mow the area near stream banks. This will help limit erosion and filter pollutants prior to entering the stream.

• Clean up after your pets. Fecal matter can be very damaging to ecosystems.

REDUCE RUNOFF

What can you do to reduce the runoff from your property?

The United States Environmental Protection Agency has a few tips:

• Disconnect/redirect downspouts

• Use a rain barrel to capture rain from your roof

• Plant a rain garden

• Plant trees

• Reduce impervious surfaces; install permeable pavement

• Plant a green roof

“Stormwater quality must be protected because fresh water is a finite and critical resource. By keeping trash and contaminants from our waterways we are helping to provide clean and safe drinking water for ourselves and our downstream neighbors.”

What is a Rain Garden?

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A RAIN GARDEN?

One major benefit of rain gardens is bioretention—the process of removing pollutants, contaminants and sedimentation from stormwater runoff. During periods of rain or storm events, rain gardens capture water that flows across impermeable surfaces such as patios, roofs, parking lots, driveways and other hard surfaces. As rain and stormwater travel across these surfaces, they pick up contaminants such as oil, pet waste, fertilizer, sediments and other pollutants. By capturing this water, rain gardens reduce potential flooding and serve as a collection point for polluted water from coursing through storm sewer drains that would ultimately find its way into our streams, rivers and waterways.

Utilizing native plants in a rain garden creates an essential habitat for beneficial animals and insects. Native plants are those that occur naturally in a region and are acclimated to the local ecosystem. Local pollinators make use of those plants, which in turn helps the natural food chain and local agriculture.

DID YOU KNOW?

HOW DO THEY WORK?

Four major functions:

• Rainwater is directed into the garden via rain chains, rain barrel overflow, downspouts, driveway drains, curb cuts, dry streambeds or sheet flow.

• When water soaks in, less stormwater erodes our streams and rivers.

• Deep-rooted plants break up hard soils and create channels for water to move through.

• Plant uptake, physical filtration, and biological processes reduce contaminants like oil, metals and nutrients.

Rain gardens can be installed in various locations throughout your property that are at least 10-20 feet away from your home. Water can be redirected from the downspouts of your home or other impervious surface or from rain barrel overflow. Water can be diverted underground to enter directly into the garden, or a dry streambed can be created as a channel to move water from the downspout to the rain garden. When choosing a location for your rain garden, make sure that the soil is capable of absorbing water. Avoid areas that already have poor drainage or issues with standing water.

8 8
- Franklin County Soil and Water Conservation District According to the EPA, a rain garden is a depressed, typically shallow, area in the landscape that collects rainwater from a roof, driveway or street and allows it to soak into the ground. Planted with grasses and flowering perennials, rain gardens can be a cost-effective and beautiful way to reduce runoff from your property. Westerville residents can receive $50 toward the purchase of native plants and trees, rain barrels or compost bins. Find details at www.communitybackyards.org

THE RAIN GARDEN IN WESTERVILLE

Living examples of established rain gardens throughout the Westerville neighborhoods and the parks system: Hoff Woods Park and Millstone Creek Park feature naturalized rain gardens and more “manicured” gardens are planted in tree lawns throughout the Brook Run Drive neighborhood.

ANATOMY OF A RAIN GARDEN

Rain gardens commonly consist of three different zones: the base layer, which is inundated with runoff water and planted with moisture loving plants; the sloped layer, which acts as a berm for containing water; and the buffer zone which helps prevent erosion of surrounding soils. Most rain gardens are anywhere from six to 12 inches at the base layer. These zones or layers correlate to the water tolerance of plants. When

When it comes to planting your rain garden, determine if your garden is full sun, partial shade/sun, or full shade and choose plants appropriately. Consider using native plants, trees, and shrubs that are suited to the local climate, soil, and pollinators. Choosing plants that vary in bloom time will ensure prolonged color and nectar sources throughout the growing season.

Visit Westerville’s Wetlands

HIGHLANDS PARK WETLANDS AREA (245 S. SPRING RD.)

The design of this park allows for improved habitat quality and a greater buffering capacity for stormwater runoff and filtration. Scattered open water areas function as habitats for fish and waterfowl and act as a trap for suspended sediments. The wetlands area features an accessible dock that allows for up-close and personal interaction with a unique ecosystem.

HERITAGE PARK AND WETLANDS (60 N. CLEVELAND AVE.)

Heritage Park is a large, natural forested wetland located in Westerville’s 100-year floodplain, partially surrounded by Alum Creek. These wetlands were formed as the result of clay extraction from brickmaking in the late 1800s to early 1900s. This park houses a high-quality wetland with mature sycamore trees and swaths of buttonbush, a native wetland shrub. There are also three wetland areas on the east side of the rectangular athletic fields that help mitigate flooding in the surrounding neighborhoods..

“Wetlands create habitat and biodiversity, help to filter water, reduce stream erosion and create spaces for people to relax and enjoy nature. It is great to work for a community who values these natural assets as well as all of the other natural spaces.”

MARINER’S COVE (VIA FISHERMAN’S DRIVE AND WAKE DRIVE)

Mariner’s Cove and Wetlands, developed in 2001, is a nineacre plot of land located along Fisherman’s Drive with the entrance to the wetlands boardwalk on Wake Drive.

BOYER NATURE PRESERVE (452 E. PARK ST.)

A nearly 11.5-acre nature preserve located at the end of Park Street and Orchard Lane, north of Walnut Street. The park’s main feature is a three-acre, stream-fed pond that was formed in a glacial kettle. During the last ice age, Westerville existed below approximately 1,000 feet of ice. As the climate warmed, a huge slab of ice fractured from this glacier and created the glacial kettle. In addition to the pond, wetland areas and vernal pools are included in the landscape.

HOFF WOODS PARK (556 MCCORKLE BLVD.)

In the second phase of Hoff Woods Park, there is a quarter-acre bioswale that was installed as part of the park development. Bioswales are channels with plantings designed to concentrate and convey stormwater runoff while removing debris and pollution and recharging groundwater. This bioswale is planted with pollinator-friendly wildflower/wetland plantings and has been supported by the Westerville Garden Club and Westerville Sunrise Rotary Club.

COLLEGE KNOLLS WETLANDS RESERVE (VIA COUNTY LINE RD.)

This 14.5-acre plot of land between College and County Line Road is maintained by the Public Service Department. The area provides stormwater retention during intense rainfalls, limiting the water that heads toward Boyer Nature Preserve and further downstream. A portion of this land is also used for wetland purposes to improve water quality.

10 10 WETLANDS
Environmental stewardship has always been one of the City’s core values. This is accomplished through commitments to preserving the natural environment while actively integrating green practices into our physical footprint. The Parks and Recreation Department is dedicated to the protection of wetlands, floodplain, woodlots, ravines and other natural corridors to ensure the availability of wildlife habitats, water quality and public access for both enjoyment and education.

Wish-Cycling vs. Recycling

What you Need to Know

Wish-cycling is the well-intentioned but unfounded belief that something is recyclable when it is not. If you find yourself tossing any old thing in the recycling, hoping that it will end up in the right place, you could be hurting the process more than you help. When non-recyclable items find their way into equipment, they can cause a clog in the system. For example, “tanglers” like cords, ribbon and shoelaces can become stuck in machinery and force operations to shut down while workers untangle the items from the equipment.

Don’t worry; recycling the correct way is not a complicated process. Follow this handy guide from our partners at Rumpke Waste and Recycling. While the full list of acceptable materials may vary slightly in some locations, residents can typically recycle the following:

☑ GLASS BOTTLES AND JARS (all colors)

☑ METAL CANS: Aluminum cans, steel cans and lids, empty aerosol cans with the lids and tips removed

☑ PLASTIC BOTTLES (empty, crush, reattach lid): Bottles and jugs that have a small mouth and wider base, such as milk jugs, and bottles for soda, water, detergent, etc.

☑ PLASTIC TUBS: Containers for butter, sour cream, cottage cheese, yogurt, Jell-O and fruit slices. Lids should be reattached prior to recycling.

☑ PLASTIC CUPS (remove/discard straw, reattach lid): Fast-food beverage cups

☑ PAPER: Newspapers, magazines, cardboard, mixed-office paper and envelopes, paperboard (cereal boxes), pizza boxes free of food debris and grease, telephone books and catalogs

☑ PAPER CUPS (remove/discard lids, straws and stoppers): Fast-food beverage cups, coffee cups

☑ CARTONS: Food and beverage cartons, such as milk, juice, soup, wine, broth and other cartons

THE FOLLOWING ITEMS ARE NOT RECYCLABLE:

Plastic bags, cassette tapes, bed sheets, hangers, metal chains, garden hoses, batteries*, needles, syringes, electronics*, polystyrene foam, buckets, car parts, food, yard waste, light bulbs*, drinking glasses, ceramics, pots, pans and scrap metal.

Want to learn more? Visit www.westerville.org/recycling

*The City offers specialized drop-off recycling and disposal opportunities. Visit www.westerville.org/zerowaste for program links.

Tips for Recycling Success from Rumpke

• Mix all items together–no separation required

• Empty all bottles, jugs and cans

• No need to remove labels

• Empty, crush and reattach lids to plastic bottles

• Remove plastic caps and straws from cartons

• NEVER place medical sharps or needles in recycling

• Do not recycle plastic bags in residential containers. Check your local grocery store for bag recycling availability.

Sanitary Sewer System Inspection Underway

RedZone Robotics has been contracted by the City to conduct internal inspections of Westerville’s public sanitary sewer lines. The project, expected to last up to 24 months, began in January.

Residents may see this team in marked vehicles in neighborhoods as they access manholes to run cameras and inspect the working order of this critical infrastructure. The company will only inspect the City’s public infrastructure, not residential laterals.

The majority of the work will take place within existing sanitary sewer easements. Residents will be notified via door hanger if property access is needed.

While Westerville contracts wastewater management to the City of Columbus, it is one of the many responsibilities of the Westerville Public Service Department to carefully monitor, inspect and maintain more than 160 miles of sanitary sewer lines.

The Buzz on Mosquito Control

The annual mosquito control program runs between mid-May and late September (schedules could vary depending on weather conditions) in parternship with Franklin County Public Health (FCPH). FCPH conducts an integrated pest management plan involving four steps: surveillance, outreach and education, prevention and control. Treatment focuses on the control of three species known to carry disease to humans: Culex pipiens, Aedes triseriatus and Aedes albopictus. Mosquito-borne diseases include (but are not limited to) the West Nile virus, La Crosse and St. Louis encephalitis.

SURVEILLANCE

FCPH utilizes an extensive surveillance network to understand the quantities and species of mosquitoes impacting a certain area. Westerville has five test locations in zones checked each week. Surveillance information may be found at www.mosquito.myfcph.org/trap-wnv-data/

PREVENTION

Each resident in Westerville can play a big role in preventing mosquito breeding. During the hot spring and summer months, check around your home and empty sources of standing water. Common sources include bird baths (empty and replace water at least twice per week), old tires, pool covers, empty planters and other containers stored outside.

DID YOU KNOW?

Another key element of prevention is to treat any long-term standing water that can’t be avoided with larvicide preventing mosquitoes from developing into adults. Treating catch basins, retention ponds and other standing water is the most effective way to minimize the impact of mosquitoes over the summer season.

CONTROL/TREATMENT

If numbers hit a certain threshold or a mosquito-borne disease is detected in a certain area, FCPH will schedule a treatment.

Announcements about treatment plans are made on the City and FCPH websites and social media channels. Be sure to follow:

• www.westerville.org/mosquitocontrol

• mosquito.myfcph.org/

• www.twitter.com/tellwesterville

• www.twitter.com/FC_PublicHealth

You can also sign up for spray notification emails and place “Do Not Spray” requests on FCPH’s website or by calling (614) 525BITE (2483).

About Pollinators: FCPH schedules adulticide treatments for the evening hours when mosquitoes are most active and pollinators like bees and butterflies are less active. They also use larvicides that are nonlethal to honey bees or other pollinators. Unfortunately, there is no perfect solution, which is why prevention is key.

For more information about mosquito control, visit mosquito.myfcph.org or www.westerville.org/mosquito.

In 2022, FCPH reported catching more than 95,000 mosquitoes, of which more than 82% were Culex, a species capable of transmitting the West Nile virus.

Western Alliance Bank Makes Home in Westerville

Western Alliance Bank, one of the country’s topperforming banks with more than $65 billion in assets, recently announced an expansion into Westerville, investing $2.2 million and creating 150 new jobs. Western Alliance currently has nearly 3,400 full-time employees and is adding new positions for analysts, engineers, developers, network operators, management, finance specialists and others as it grows in the Central Ohio region.

To support the bank’s rapidly growing products and business segments, the company’s IT division is establishing a workforce in Westerville to enable the acquisition and retention of world-class data analytics, cyber security, software development, finance and IT talent.

“We are building a high-performing technology enterprise for our high-performing bank, and we were drawn to this outstanding part of Ohio. The robust talent pipeline, concentration of finance and technology companies and competitive business environment in the Columbus Region is the type of ecosystem we were looking for when scouting locations across the country,” said Tim Boothe, chief operating officer of Western Alliance Bank. “The community amenities, strong corporate presence, Class A office product and talent acquisition practices made Westerville the top contender for this project, which will ultimately be a catalyst for the bank’s growth nationwide.”

Headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, Western Alliance Bank operates individual, full-service banking and financial brands with offices in key markets nationwide. The company was awarded #1 top-performing bank with $50 billion or more of assets in 2021 and 2022 per American Banker. Its parent company, Western Alliance Bancorporation, ranked S&P Global Market Intelligence’s #1 BestPerforming Largest Public U.S. Bank in 2019 and 2020. Other parent company accolades include #1 Best Bank ($50 billion and above) in 2021 by Bank Director and 2022 All-America Executive Team by Institutional Investor (including #1 Best CEO and #1 Best CFO).

Economic Development Director Rachel Ray says the growth in financial services technologies is an emerging market in Westerville.

“Our finance cluster and broader business community is proud to welcome Western Alliance, one of the best performing banks in the country, to Westerville,” she said. “Westerville is already home to dozens of companies that specialize in technology and finance, so combined with the Region’s highly educated talent pipeline, we know that Western Alliance will thrive in this community.”

The company plans to lease the 28,000-squarefoot third floor of the Westar I office building, located at 570 Polaris Parkway, near the intersection with Cleveland Avenue. With its expanded presence in Westerville, Western Alliance Bank joins the community of global banking institutions, national insurance and technology companies changing the industry in the region, including Columbus and the surrounding suburbs. According to JobsOhio, a partner in the bank’s expansion planning, finance and insurance comprise the top private sector by economic output in the area.

Vertiv Opens Global HQ on Westerville Campus

With the snip of a ribbon, Vertiv officially celebrated the opening of its 72,000-plus sq. ft. global headquarters in Westerville (505 N. Cleveland Ave.) in January. The company says the move helped align its workforce and workflow while creating a walkable campus (with two nearby facilities at 610 Executive Campus Drive and 530 Westar Blvd.). Vertiv has committed to adding 100 jobs with $8 million in the region by the end of 2025. Learn more about the company at www.vertiv.com.

Social Media Extortion Targeting Teens

The Westerville Division of Police (WPD) is issuing a warning about an extortion plot targeting teenagers via social media. WPD wants parents and guardians to act now and have conversations with teens about responsible social media use.

In these cases, teenagers are solicited on social media, typically Instagram, to chat with a person pretending to be a friend. That person builds trust with the victim before requesting nude photos, typically via Snapchat or other messaging apps. Once photos are received, a demand for money follows. If unpaid, the extortionist threatens to release the photos to their contacts/followers or post to the Internet.

This extortion typically starts at $500 to $1,000, and usually increases with additional demands for money. Even if paid, the extortionist will continue to threaten public exposure.

Investigators warn this scam is becoming increasingly common among teenage boys, who typically believe they are talking to an interested female of similar age.

“This is called blackmail and sextortion, but it’s a crime and a dangerous scheme from start to finish,” said Detective Lt. Justin Alloway, WPD Investigations. “This is ruining lives, and not only from financial loss but because several of these cases have resulted in suicide. It’s important for parents and guardians to talk about this now, and include anyone in the family who uses a smartphone and these social media apps about this real-world issue.”

WPD recommends discussion guides on this issue provided by the Federal Bureau of Investigation at the link below. Other resources can be found via the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children at www.missingkids.org/theissues/ sextortion .

Westerville to Invest in, Develop 88 Acres East of Africa Ro ad

The Westerville Industry and Commerce Corporation (WICC) will purchase two tracts of land east of Africa Road for economic development purposes. The City of Westerville is considering the authorization of $8.4 million for WICC’s purchase, with the intent to develop the land for commercial use and job growth.

In 2019, Westerville celebrated the economic development success of the original investment in the City’s northern edge. The annexation of 941 acres in 1999 comprising the area known as Westar, followed by the City’s 2014 acquisition of 62 acres in the heart of Westar, known as Westar Place. This area has generated nearly 10,000 jobs and is home to multiple companies including the North American headquarters of DHL Supply Chain, the corporate headquarters of Vertiv, Lancaster Colony and Central Ohio Primary Care Physicians, and the future home to other corporate entities like Western Alliance Bank.

“Growth is happening all around us, and Westerville is being intentional about creating opportunities for jobs and economic viability,” said Jason Bechtold, Assistant City Manager, City of Westerville. “We’ve shown this model works. Westerville has been successful in pairing thoughtful development with undeveloped land and public infrastructure while bolstering the workforce and creating amenities for residents and employees of Westerville businesses.”

ABOUT WICC

On Tuesday, Feb. 7, Westerville City Council will hear the first reading of the ordinances that will enable WICC’s acquisition of the properties. As part of the proposal, City Council will authorize the funds for purchase and transfer to WICC, who has the express statutory authority to purchase land for economic development purposes. The City will recover the investment through land sales preceding development. The site is zoned Planned District for commercial development.

Bechtold says the land is a natural extension of Westar that will help Westerville achieve its economic development objectives, particularly as it relates to business demands for our existing industries and those related to the record Intel investment less than 10 miles away from this center of commerce.

“Westerville has a track record of adapting land for commercial use,” he said. “The 62-acre development at Westar Place illustrates that success. This is the next chapter in the City’s efforts to make strategic and intentional decisions about land use as Columbus Region grows in exponential ways.”

The purchase is expected to close in April, at which time development planning and marketing of the properties will begin. The City will initiate roadway and other infrastructure planning, including utility, stormwater and greenway design throughout the remainder of the year.

WICC is a not-for-profit community improvement corporation organized and existing under Chapter 1724 of the Ohio Revised Code. As a nonprofit community improvement corporation, WICC was formed for the purpose of advancing, encouraging, and promoting the industrial, economic, commercial and civic development of the City of Westerville. WICC successfully purchased and repositioned land used for commercial development in the past. For example, the $20 million Aloft Hotel (pictured) at Heatherdown and S.

WPD Debuts Peace Officer Academy

Calib Amos has been patrolling Westerville roads and responding to calls as a Westerville Division of Police (WPD) officer for about two months. His swearing-in by City Manager Monica Irelan took place in February, about two weeks after graduating from the Columbus Police Academy. Amos will be among the last graduates to join WPD from the CPD Academy. Amos’ graduation from Columbus marks the start of a new era. Beginning this year, WPD officers, and others who serve Central Ohio communities, will be trained and certified at the Westerville Justice Center.

In June, WPD welcomes its first class of men and women destined to become peace (police) officers. The Westerville Basic Peace Academy follows the training curriculum and requirements of the state of Ohio, providing a local solution to conduct training and recruitment with WPD personnel at its own facility.

“The Justice Center provides the equipment and modernized space we need in order to bring our Academy in-house and offer it to communities in the surrounding region,” said WPD Chief of Police Charles Chandler. “We have the capability to provide instruction for the Ohio law enforcement community using the latest research and recommended professional practices, and we want to provide that level of service and continuity for our community.”

Stephen Fridley as Academy Commander; Fridley holds the certifications required to manage Academy operations. He will oversee

the 22-week curriculum for cadets who are required to achieve 850 hours of instruction.

“Our recruit handbook mirrors the rules, regulations and expectations of the traditional academies that graduate peace officers,” said Fridley. “We are taking advantage of our own facility and the expertise of our own certified instructors to help generate the next few recruitment classes of Westerville officers.”

Fridley says the Academy will offset operational costs through a tuition model for other agencies that send their recruits to Westerville. Full tuition for the program is $4,280 per cadet.

Recruits’ attendance requirements are the same as any other 40-hour-a-week job, minus room and board. Eight-hour training and classroom days are required, but cadets may return to their homes at the end of the workday.

Fridley points to the modernized Justice Center for leading WPD in this direction.

“This facility is the difference-maker when it comes to training and graduating our own recruits,” said Fridley. “We have a classroom, virtual-reality based simulations, a new firearms range and everything else a modern Academy can offer. We have the tools we need to recruit the future of law enforcement professionals and ensure they are trained to our standard.”

Annual Hydrant Flushing Helps Protect Critical Infrastructure

Westerville Public Service will spend two weeks carefully inspecting each fire hydrant in the City (2,471 in total) beginning Sunday, April 30. The process also involves running water through the hydrants, ensuring the lines are clear of particulates that build up over time.

“Our crews will work around the clock, inspecting hydrants and valves for operational issues. This is important work to ensure this life-saving equipment is ready to be used when needed,” said Kevin Weaver, Director of Public Service.

Weaver says that residents may notice a brown tint in their water during the program. If this happens, the Public Service Department encourages residents to run the water through the tap for a few minutes. Residents are also encouraged to run washing machines through a rinse cycle before doing laundry.

The program will run from April 30 to May 12. Call Westerville Public Service at (614) 901-6740 with questions or visit www.westerville.org/hydrantflushing
