Board picks forecast with cash balance By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers The New Albany-Plain Local school board approved its five-year financial forecast May 23 in a split vote. The board was given two forecasts to review. One showed a cash balance of $9,644 at the end of fiscal year 2013, and the other showed a $451,450 deficit at the end of the same year.

Four board members — president Mark Ryan, vice president Laura Kohler, Natalie Matt and Cheri Lehmann — voted to approve the forecast that did not show a deficit. Michael Klein voted against it. During the discussion, superintendent April Domine said the forecast with a balance of $9,644 included: the reduction of permanent substitutes, saving $100,000 annually; fixing the costs of

supplies and equipment regardless of enrollment growth; and eliminating hiring new teachers for fiscal year 2012. Klein argued that the approved forecast did not invest in the district’s future and did not include new programming or funds to address the district’s overcrowding issue. He said the district already absorbed costs for permanent improvements after allowing the last permanent improvements levy to expire.

By putting off so many expenses, Klein said, the district is going to have to ask for a lot of money when any issue is placed on the ballot. “We will be out of permanent improvements money, out of operating money and we are out of space,” he said. Matt countered that the board is not procrastinating on any decisions. Rather, she said, the board is facing the tough decisions on big issues at the same time

it is dealing with an unusual economic situation. “We are trying to give the community the time to recover in a very difficult economic moment in our country,” she said. “We’re not putting it off. We’re giving people space to recover.” Lehmann admitted the forecast had weaknesses but said the district would See FIVE-YEAR FORECAST, page A2

Brickman nets local, state incentives for move to city By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers A company that has worked in New Albany for many years plans to move its Ohio operations to the city this summer. “Our plan right now is to move in mid-August. That’s our time frame,” said Mark Strayer, divisional vice president of Brickman Facility Solutions. Brickman Facility Solutions is a division of The Brickman Group of Maryland. Strayer said the company’s facility solutions division includes landscaping services and snow removal. “We provide exterior maintenance to national retail clients across the country,” he said. The state of Ohio and the city of New Albany recently approved tax incentives for Brickman’s relocation. The Ohio Tax Credit Authority on May 23 approved a sevenyear, 50-percent tax credit for the company’s move. The company is required to have $3.4 million in payroll and must remain at the New Albany site for 10 years. According to information from the state, the “Job Creation Tax Credit is a major factor in Brickman’s decision to relocate its operations in New Albany. … The credit will allow the company to go forward with the operation

By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers New Albany’s “form-based” zoning code will go into effect next month for new developments in the urban center. City council on May 17 approved two ordinances related to the new code. The first established the urban center district and the other amended all existing zoning chapters to include the new regulations. Kathryn Meyer, deputy director of community development, said, according to New Albany’s strategic plan, new zoning regulations were needed “to allow for pedestrian scale and oriented development to be maintained and built without extensive reviews and approvals.” See NEW CODE, page A4

Tax incentive review council

Most local companies meeting benchmarks By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers All but one of the New Albany companies that receive tax incentives are exceeding expectations, community development director Jennifer Chrysler told city council last week. Only Tutor Time of New Albany, a day-care facility on Woodcrest Way, has not met its revenue projections, though the company has three years to reach the projected revenue of $18,557, Chrysler said.

“Technically, they are in compliance,” she said. The actual revenue reported in 2010 was $5,090, Chrysler told council May 17. The company was not required to create a certain number of jobs as part of the agreements with council, she said. The company received a 10-year, 100-percent property-tax abatement that requires a certain percentage of income tax to be generated per square foot. Council member Glyde Marsh asked why the company was not meeting expected pay-

roll projections. Chrysler said the payroll benchmark was created before the recession and Tutor Time is the first business to open in that area. Other businesses were expected to follow but none did when the recession occurred. “Without other businesses, they couldn’t attract the students to hire the staff needed to meet their benchmark,” Chrysler said. Marsh suggested renegotiating the agreeSee TAX INCENTIVE REVIEW, page A2

TAX INCENTIVE REVIEW Continued from page A1 ments with Tutor Time to make the projections more realistic. Chrysler said the agreement could be suspended until more businesses open in the area and the company then could meet its projections. Though Tutor Time is a company that does not typically receive abatements, according to Chrysler’s report to council, “the use was a needed amenity in the business park and could potentially serve as a catalyst for future developments.” The companies receiving tax incentives are required to report annually to the tax incentive review council (TIRC). According to the Ohio Revised Code, the TIRC reviews and makes “recommendations regarding the annual compliance of companies with active economic incentive development agreements.” County auditors chair the TIRC in each county. Representatives from cities and school districts affected by the agreements also serve on the council. Because New Albany has land in Franklin and Licking counties, both county TIRCs review projects for the city. Most of the other companies are meeting or exceeding benchmarks, Chrysler said in her May 17 report to council. Many of the companies are expected to create a certain amount of income-tax revenue for the city. The amounts are based on type of business and size of the area occupied. Tween Brands and the Signature office building, south of Central College Road and west of U.S.

Route 62, both exceeded their income-tax revenue benchmarks: Tween Brands’actual revenue was $1.17 million, nearly twice the target amount of $571,860, and the office building’s revenue was $91,500, almost double its target of $55,440. The Commercial Vehicle Group on Walton Parkway has a 12-year, 100-percent tax abatement and was expected to create 115 jobs with a total payroll of $5.85 million. The company actually created 142 jobs and has a payroll of $16.6 million. The Smith’s Mill Road office park, which includes five buildings south of Central College Road and east of Route 62, has a 10year, 100-percent property-tax abatement with the agreement that the buildings would generate $59,400 in income-tax revenue. The actual revenue is $78,000. The medical office building south of Central College Road and east of Route 62 has a 10-year, 100-percent abatement and was expected to generate income-tax revenue of $83,160. The city is receiving $317,000 in income taxes from the business, Chrysler said. The Water’s Edge building on Walton Parkway south of state Route 605 has a 15-year, 100-percent property-tax abatement and was expected to create 400 jobs and a payroll of $14 million. The building has only 267 employees but the payroll of $23.9 million exceeded projections. Chrysler said several new tenants plan to move into the building, including Bluemile, which will put the building over the job benchmark. Discover Financial Services has a 15-year, 100-percent property-

tax abatement and was expected to create 1,800 jobs with a payroll of $65 million. Like the Water’s Edge building, Discover has less employees than expected — 1,439 — but the payroll is $68.4 million. Chrysler also reported on several companies in the Central College community-reinvestment area (CRA) north of West Campus Oval and east of New Albany-Condit Road. They include Aetna, All-Pak, Liberty Mutual, HerbalScience, The Bank of New York Mellon, Andreas Business and Tax Solutions and ACA Medical Management Solutions. Chrysler said tax abatements have expired for these businesses but they still must meet benchmarks. The companies exceeded their income-tax revenue benchmark of $584,329, generating $840,000. Chrysler said these companies employ 1,012, though there were no job-creation benchmarks associated with their incentives. The two Abercrombie & Fitch buildings on Smith’s Mill Road have 15-year, 100-percent property-tax abatements. Together, the buildings were expected to employ 1,200 people with a target payroll of $1.16 million. They currently have 2, 292 employees and $5.1 million payroll. The Licking County TIRC reviewed American Electric Power on Smith’s Mill Road. It was anticipated to generate $115,636 in income-tax revenue for the city and it actually generates $125,000. The company had no job-creation benchmark, Chrysler said, but it employs 105 people. lwince@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

Continued from page A1 have to continue to look for creative ways to save money. “There’s not a better plan. These both are mediocre,” Lehmann said of the two forecast options. “I wish we could do more.” Domine said the approved forecast does not include staffing for the pilot all-day kindergarten program, which would target students identified as academically at-risk, or the expansion of the Mandarin Chinese program for seventh-graders. Under the current forecast, implementation of those programs would be delayed at least a year. Klein called that delay “a lost opportunity.” Ryan agreed that those are lost opportunities but he said, “Our obligation is to protect what we have first.” Ryan argued that the district is investing in the future by expanding programs it does not have to fully fund. He mentioned the financial literacy programs through a partnership with Junior Achievement of Central Ohio, which began earlier this year. He also said the board has committed to keep the district financially sustainable through fiscal year 2013 to keep a former campaign promise. Domine reminded the board that the forecast is used by the district to anticipate future costs

but the board can change the forecast as actual numbers come in. “It does change over time and does drive how we budget but it is not the budget,” she said. Matt said the district is anticipating more accurate financial estimates in the summer regarding state funding cuts for schools and the county auditor’s property reappraisals, for example. She asked if teachers for the all-day kindergarten program and seventh-grade Mandarin Chinese could be hired if the estimates were to change. Domine said those programs could be instituted at any time. She said students already have been identified for the all-day kindergarten program and The Ohio State University already has told the district it has five to six candidates available to teach the Mandarin Chinese class. The only down side is that Ohio State can’t guarantee those Chinese teachers would be available later this summer, Domine said. The financial review and reporting committee, which made recommendations on the fiveyear forecast, also asked the district to see if it could keep per-pupil expenditures frozen at the estimated $11,800 cost to educate one child in 2010. Domine told the board May 23 that if the district were to do that, it would need to cut $3.882 million out of the district’s budget for fiscal year 2012 and $5 million out of the budget for fiscal year 2013.

Accord panel denies recommendation for storage facility By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers AAA Storage’s plans to build a set of storage units at 10913 Johnstown Road were not supported May 19 by members of the Rocky Fork-Blacklick Accord Implementation Panel. The five members present voted against recommending approval for a zoning change for the project. They each gave their reasons for the refusal. “The applicant did a wonderful job of presenting the rendering and this plan has gone a long way (from what was originally presented),” said panel member Tom Rybski. But, Rybski said, the Plain Township land-use plans and the accord plans both show the land use for the area as rural residential, not commercial. Panel members Don Ballard, Doug Burnip and Derek Benseler agreed, saying the plan itself is not bad but the location isn’t right. Panel member Meera Parthasarathy also said the plan seemed fine but she questioned the location because of its

proximity to a stream. Burnip said the accord panel has recommended some zoning changes in the past, which deviate from land-use plans. But, he said, in those cases, the change was beneficial to the area. When land was rezoned for Abercrombie & Fitch, for example, the business brought muchneeded property-tax revenue and took away the possibility of several hundred homes being built, which would have negatively affected the New AlbanyPlain Local School District with increased enrollment. Similarly, when residential space on state Route 605 was rezoned for the Sorensen & Sorensen, Optometrists office, it was in an area already surrounded by commercial businesses. Burnip said AAA Storage wants to build between residential homes, 25 feet from the closest neighbor, and would cover most of the lot with large buildings. “This is 10 acres surrounded by residential that you want changed to commercial, that’s in an area zoned for a one home-per-acre max, that was designat-

City modifies Souder Road extension, cuts cost in half New Albany City Council on May 17 agreed to allow city manager Joseph Stefanov to advertise bids for the extension project of Souder Road East. The road is being extended 700 feet north. The project is expected to have two phases. The first phase will extend the road 400 feet north, ending it in the shape of a “T,” with a temporary easement from the surrounding property owners for a turn-around for emergency vehicles and city crews removing snow. Utility extensions are included in the project. Stefanov told council that the project initially was estimated to

cost $2 million but the cost has been cut in half. He said the city has determined it does not have to extend the water line on state Route 605 between Central College Road and New Albany Road East until more development occurs in the area, which will save $1 million. By extending the road, the city would be able “to serve the additional undeveloped acreage within this area of the research and information campus,” which includes about 75 acres open to development, according to city staff reports. — Lori Wince

ed by the township for residential,” Burnip said. “This plan presents no compelling reason for the (zoning) change.” Attorney Korey Kidwell, who spoke on behalf of AAA Storage, said the plan meets six of the accord’s 10 principles and the other four don’t apply. He said the commercial venture would generate $39,000 to $52,000 a year in property taxes, while the existing home on the 10.788-acre site, an abandoned house built in 1972, generates only $8,800. The lot and house at 10913 Johnstown Road are owned by Playworld Systems Inc. of Pennsylvania, which bought the property in March 2010. Kidwell said after the meeting, he plans to present the application to the Plain Township Zoning Commission, which will meet again June 9. The commission reviewed the project in May and decided to wait for the accord panel’s recommendation before moving forward with a vote. Both the accord panel and the township zoning commission make recommendations on zoning changes to the Plain Township trustees, who have the

final vote on any zoning change in the township. Even though the accord makes recommendations only, Burnip said, trustees have never approved a zoning change that the panel recommended against. AAA Storage wants to construct 13 buildings with 597 units in two phases, with two buildings and a third larger building for recreational vehicle and boat storage to be built first, said Don Durbin of AAA Storage. The buildings would be surrounded by a green, vinyl-coated chain link fence with a silent alarm system to protect the property inside the units. Plans shown to the panel May 19 included a 400-foot setback from Johnstown Road and enough landscaping to screen about 80 percent of the buildings from the road and from the neighbors. A detention basin, which would hold storm water runoff, was proposed for the west side of the project. Several residents spoke against the project May 19. Residents who live on Clouse Road and along Johnstown Road said the road already is busy and traffic

turning in and out of a storage facility could cause more issues. Joanne Adams, who lives on Johnstown Road, said there were 38 reported accidents in the last four years on U.S. Route 62 between Clouse Road and Walnut Street, a total that doesn’t count all the “near misses.” Several residents said the local streams could be affected negatively by runoff from the site and others feared the detention basin could attract children. Kidwell said the site does not contain wetlands and the detention basin is designed to improve drainage. Holly Morgan, who lives on Stonegate Drive in the New Albany Links subdivision, said the safety of the 50 children on her street could be affected by the project. One person spoke in favor of the project. Don Shoemaker, who owns property southeast of the site on Johnstown Road, said the storage facility would be an asset that would not hurt property values. lwince@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

Memorial Day services slated in Gahanna and New Albany By MARLA K. KUHLMAN ThisWeek Community Newspapers Gahanna and New Albany-area residents have many opportunities on Memorial Day to offer “A Salute to Those Who Paid the Price of Freedom,” the theme of programs sponsored by the Veterans of Foreign Wars Tri-Community Post 4719, American Legion Post 797 and Ladies Auxiliary Unit 797 of Gahanna, and Knights of Columbus Council 10941 of New Albany. Jack Steinhausser, Memorial Day chairman, said remembrance services would be held at each cemetery stop, where a rifle salute and the playing of “Taps” will be conducted to honor all fallen heroes. Post 797 Cmdr. Malcolm Glasgow said the services on Monday, May 30, would start at 9 a.m. at Riverside Cemetery on Sunbury Road. The program includes a memorial march, prayer from Legion Chaplain Rusty Lundy and the pledge of allegiance. Next, a memorial march will begin at 9:45 a.m. at Maplewood Cemetery, 4585 Reynoldsburg-New Albany Road in Plain Township, with the Veterans of Foreign Wars, American Legion and Knights of Columbus conducting services. An invocation will be offered by Deacon Robert Killoren, of New Albany’s Church of the Resurrection, which will be followed by the pledge of allegiance and the national anthem. The New Albany High School band, directed by Darren Falk, will play “America the Beautiful,” and Killoren

will provide a Memorial Day address. Services will follow at Blacklick’s Jefferson Cemetery at 10:45 a.m., when an invocation will be provided by the Rev. David Allison of Havens Corners Church. Gahanna Lincoln High School’s band, directed by Rob Cebriak, will perform “America the Beautiful,” followed by a Memorial Day address by Allison. An assembly on the Creekside bridge will follow Blacklick’s service beginning at 11:30 a.m., with the VFW and American Legion. Tri-Community Post Cmdr. Jeff Szabo will conduct a wreath ceremony. “We lay a wreath on the water for our comrades who died at sea,” Steinhausser said. “It’s to give recognition to them that they will never be forgotten, as well as those veterans buried in cemeteries around the world.” The laying of the wreath will be followed by a prayer from Lundy. Gahanna Lincoln’s band will play “America the Beautiful,” followed by a march to Mifflin Cemetery. Gahanna Mayor Becky Stinchcomb will begin ceremonies in Mifflin, followed by Tri-Post Community Chaplain Jim Thompson with an invocation. Gahanna Lincoln’s band will perform and the Rev. Andrew Hoover, of East Columbus Christian Church, will offer the Memorial Day address.

BRICKMAN Continued from page A1 and increase the capacity and ability to manage their growing customer base and create new jobs. The state of Ohio is in competition with Maryland for this project, as the company has been reaching out to those locations.” Strayer attended the New Albany City Council meeting May 17 when council voted 5-0 to approve an income-tax credit for the company. Community development director Jennifer Chrysler said the company will receive a 30percent income-tax credit, which means it will pay only 70 percent of income taxes during its first seven years of operation. According to the city, The Brickman Group is the largest landscape and snow-services contractor in the U.S. The Brickman Group in 2009 purchased Lawn GreenKeeper in Marion. The company wants to expand its operations so it plans to move into 18,000 to 20,000 square feet of space at 6530 W. Campus Oval in New Albany. “We thank you so much for considering New Albany as your new home,” Mayor Nancy Ferguson said May 17. According to information from the state, the company must renovate the building and add new machinery and equipment totaling an investment of $915,000. The company has 82 employees it is bringing from the Marion location and it is anticipated to add another 40 after the move. According to information provided by the state, the company “will create 63 full-time equivalent employees generating $3.4 million in annual payroll at the project location within three years of the project’s initial operations.” The average wage for full-time workers will be

$26.29 per hour, which includes another $6.57 per hour in benefits. The company also “has committed to hiring at least 10 percent disadvantaged and/or minority persons, as defined by the Ohio Administrative Code.” The 30-percent income-tax credit is divided, with 25 percent given for the relocation and the other 5 percent given as a health and wellness credit. Chrysler said the health and wellness credit requires the company to create a plan encouraging their employees to be healthy. It could include a company-wide initiative or simply a company team walking in the New Albany Walking Classic. “It has to in some way tie back to health and wellness,” she said. Even with the tax credit, the company is anticipated to pay $94,000 a year in income taxes, with $28,000 of that going to pay off infrastructure debt that helped build that part of the business campus. Chrysler said the building at 6530 W. Campus Oval initially received tax abatements but those have expired. The building owner must pay 100 percent of the property taxes, which provides more money for the school district. Brickman Facility Solutions will occupy the space left vacant when MRS Associates moved in 2009. Strayer said the company has some work to do to convert the space for their operations but he said, company officials would first like to move the 82 employees from Marion and then finish work on the remaining space to prepare for the rest of the move. “Pending approval of the state incentives, we could temporarily move in June,” Strayer said last week. lwince@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

NEW CODE Continued from page A1 As a result, city staff members spent the last two years developing the Urban Center Code, which “will benefit businesses, residents, developers and city government by providing increased certainty in allowable building forms, less time required for approvals and increased assurance that the envisioned village center master plan will be achieved,” according to city staff reports. Rather than relying text-based traditional codes, “a form-based code is predominately visuals and graphics, which results in improved clarity and understanding.” City officials also have said that the form-based code differs from traditional zoning codes in that it emphasizes building form, massing and relationship to the street and existing buildings, instead of emphasizing land uses.

Correction

The new code has been being reviewed by several planning bodies, as well as tenants and business owners currently living and operating in New Albany’s urban center. Meyer said the city has held more than 25 public hearings on the code as of last week and more are planned. The planning commission and architectural review board (ARB) have reviewed the code, with the planning commission recommending a few changes. The code affects 230 properties in the city center, which will be rezoned as the urban center district, perhaps as soon as one of city council’s June meetings. Meyer said many of the properties in the urban center currently do not conform to codes. The Urban Center Code will bring

those properties in line with code and would provide default zoning regulations for land already zoned within a planned-unit development. Planned-unit developments often have more extensive development text. Meyer said any aspect of a planned-unit development not controlled by existing development text would be regulated by the Urban Center Code. Meyer said city staff members would have more approval power under the new code and developers and city staff alike should benefit from the clearly stated guidelines. The new code also gives the ARB the authority to approve waivers of alterations and variances, as well as hear appeals on staff approvals. lwince@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

Community Newspapers

ThisWeek is printed on recycled paper.

Because of incorrect information from Plain Township, a story about the May 11 trustees meeting in the May 19 edition of ThisWeek New Albany reported the wrong pay increases for two employees. After a 2-percent pay increase, administrative office employees Cindy Powell and Mary Fee will earn $16.85 per hour. Their previous hourly rate was $16.52. Also, because of a reporting error, the same story incorrectly referred to township maintenance supervisor Bob Pharris as “Bob Ferris.”

Michael Brewer has two severed heads and a set of daggers on his bed and a moose head on his dining room table. It goes with the territory when you’re working on Evil Dead The Musical. “I’ve been waiting for the scary dreams to start,” Brewer said, only half-joking. Brewer is set designer for CATCO’s production of Evil Dead The Musical, which opens next week. He said that, from a special-effects standpoint, it’s the biggest show he’s ever done, including operas and large-cast musicals. “We’re having (production) conversations about a singing beaver,” Brewer said. The show is a spoof of the popular cult slasher films, CATCO artistic director Steven Anderson, who also directs Evil Dead, told The Beat. As such, Brewer explained, the effects are designed to be “cool and awesome, but not scary. Believable, but not realistic.” “It’s a musical,” Anderson added. “We have eight good voices. The show is good fun, good comedy. Folks are going to walk out of the theatre humming the melodies. The other stuff is just icing on the cake.” Actually, the other stuff is not so much cake decoration but severed body parts (“I’ve spent hours looking for and buying body parts,” Brewer said, ostensibly meaning fake ones) and blood. Lots of blood. The theatre will include a “Safe Zone” and a “Splatter Zone.” The splattering blood has been measured at a maximum of 18 feet. “We’ll be providing protection,” Anderson assured. Josef Matulich was brought in to be the show’s “blood czar.” “There’s no such thing as an expert,” Matulich explained. “It’s

more mad inventor status.” He said he’s worked with a variety of mixtures — that, in addition to the visual effect, the blood formula must also be washable (costumes must last the threeweek run, for example), must be safe enough for actors to be sprayed in the face and needs to not jam the pumps and fixtures used to deliver the blood. For example, there is a scene in which an actor is stabbed with a dagger that is followed by a song delivered while using a hand pump to pump blood from the “wound.” “When an actor has to sing and dance while spurting blood, it complicates things,” Matulich said. Indeed — the functionality of the blood delivery mechanisms impacts more than just the technical aspect of the show. “The challenge in blocking the show was, whereas normally you are concerned with stage fixtures and the relationships of the ac-

tors, you have to get the actors to where things can happen, but get them there in a way that makes sense,” Anderson explained. “I’m comfortable we’ve achieved the goal of making it plausible and natural,” Brewer added. Apart from the times actors are asked to handle certain effects, much of the rest of the bleeding is coordinated from a single workstation under the stage, designed and built by Matulich. “It’s like a command center with gang valves,” he said. “I’ve discovered more types of plumbing fittings than I knew existed.” “You start out with an ideal of what you want and then work with the team to discover what you can do,” Anderson said. “I’ve been amazed at how close to ideal you can get.” For more on CATCO’s production of Evil Dead The Musical, read the BeatBlog at www.ThisWeekNews.com.

New lunch menu unveiled at Sage American Bistro Last week, some lucky tablemates and I basically had Sage all to ourselves for a few terrific lunches. See, the top-tier North Campus place was attempting to roll out its new midday service slowly and on the down-low. Yeah, sorry Sage, that’s not likely to happen now that G.A. Loudmouth is on your case. And as word breaks out that Sage is making great soups, salads and lusty, handcrafted sandwiches for only a couple more bucks than fast food, I doubt I’ll be enjoying many more allalone nooners in there again any time soon. Working from a restrained menu that emphasizes tricked-out familiar sandwiches, Sage’s lunchtime fare is rife with bold, compound bites that wrangle the sweet and spicy, the salty and hearty, the leafy and meaty. And that includes soups and salads because Sage certainly excels in these culinary phases, too. Take, for instance, a recent Daily Soup ($6) flaunting deeply developed flavors. At its heart were tons of long-cooked,

MENU by G.A. Benton transparent onions with the texture of soft noodles. The soup’s body, which was creamy — but not excessively thick or gloppy — benefited handsomely from blue cheese pungency and a backbone of bacon. Instead of forgettable ephemera, the salads I tried at Sage actually provided me with something memorable to sink my teeth into. For example, “steaky” is not a word generally associated with a pile of greens, but it aptly describes the Grilled Caesar ($7). About half an intact head of smoky and grill-marked romaine was trimmed to its heart and embellished with hard-cooked egg, anchovies and a brashly rich dressing. The excellent Spring House Salad ($7) elegantly balanced delicate, chopped thin asparagus spears, shallots and a

Speaking of sides, Sage’s other extras, like the addictive, hand-cut fries ($3), the bright, sweet and tart red cabbage slaw ($2) and a not-so-simple Simple Salad ($3), were standouts in taste, size and price. If sandwiches aren’t your thing, there are also a Smoked Salmon pasta ($11) and a full-flavored, salt-edged meatball with a kicky “smoked tomato” gravy, killer tater-tot-riffing risotto cake and niftily contrasting arugula salad ($11). These entrees might even call for a nice libation from Sage’s fine drinks menu. I know my toast to Sage’s welcome and new — if no longer secret — lunch menu certainly did.

Barbecue veteran moves center of operations to new restaurant At 34, Stan Riley already is a 17-year veteran of the barbecue industry. As a junior in high school, Riley began washing dishes for Art Yoho, the man who would become his mentor — and later partner — in the restaurant business. Yoho, then owner of Yoho’s Café and Catering on Westerville Road in the North Linden area, showed Riley the ropes: how to cook, work the smoker, control food costs and manage labor. “Everything he taught me, I took with me,” said Riley, who opened his second Holy Smoke Barbecue last week at 5251 N. Hamilton Road near

New Albany. “We’re in a good place to grow,” he said. “I needed a commissary and catering facility that also had a retail setting.” The store, in 2,100 square feet of space that was formerly home to Baja Sol, is more than just a sit-down restaurant: It is now is the barbecue center of his universe. It is where he prepares all the meats for his two eateries (the original is in the North Market) in Southern Pride Smokers located out back. The space, which seats 50 inside and another 30 outside, is designed in a way that allows customers to take a visual survey of the offerings: a glass case out front houses the brisket, pork, ribs, sausage and chicken, plus a variety of Southern sides. “Hopefully, you see what you want to eat today and see what you want to eat tomorrow,” he said. When orders are prepared, patrons By Lorrie Cecil/ThisWeek retrieve their meals from the counter. Stan Riley stands in his second Holy Smoke Barbecue restaurant, which reRiley uses two cently opened at 5251 N. Hamilton Road. The original store is in the North kinds of wood: Market.

Riley said he will have the typical American macro-brews in the bottle while offering a reperwww.ThisWeekNews.com/foodandwine toire of micro-brews on tap. For the time being, there’s Frostop Root Beer on tap, along with other Recipe of the week cold beverages. Holy Smoke has its own brand of barbecue sauces — “Sweet and Smokey” and “Spicy Chipotle” — available tableside and for retail sale. And, Riley stresses, the ribs are slathered with sauce before serving, unless otherwise specified. He also offers several sauces for retail made by CaJohns Fiery Foods, a specialty-foods manufacturer located in Westerville. Incidentally, Riley and John Hard, the founder of CaJohns, were partners in the North Market before Hard left to concentrate on his salsas, sauces and spice mixes. He also makes Holy Smoke’s private label. The new store means the end of an era at the Westerville Road site, from which Riley was doing all of his cooking for the market and catering operations.

Support system

Blue Star Mothers form bond while children serve overseas By JAYME DETWEILER ThisWeek Community Newspapers

For some mothers, the somber meaning behind Memorial Day can be sobering. The thought of a brave son or daughter serving overseas, in hostile territory, can worry a mother sick, with fear that her child is alone and in harm’s way. When those thoughts become overwhelming, help is available from the Columbus chapter of the Blue Star Mothers of America. The Blue Star Mothers group is a nonpartisan, nonpolitical service organization comprising mothers who have or have had children serving in the U.S. military. The organization also promotes public awareness of military support efforts through fundraising and community events. The more than 50 women in

the local group provide support to each other and to active-duty military personnel. Associate members could be fathers, aunts, uncles and other family members. In the past three years, the Columbus chapter has sent almost 4,000 packages overseas, according to Trina Dunlap, second vice president of the Ohio organization and 2008-10 president of the Columbus chapter. She also co-founded the chapter in 2007. “There are so many over there that do not have anybody sending them anything from home,

In brief

and they’re over there alone,” she said. “Those are the ones we target.” The intent of the packages is to say, “Thank you for what you are doing.” Dunlap said she would send 10 packages to her son, Michael Dunlap, a U.S. Army officer with the C-52 infantry company who was stationed in Iraq for 15 months. He arrived home safely in fall 2010. He would give nine away to soldiers whom he knew hadn’t received anything, she said. The Blue Star Mothers will participate in the Memorial Day pa-

rade in Worthington on May 30, holding a Blue Star Mothers banner and pictures of their family members who are in the military. “It’s not just another day or a cookout,” Dunlap said of Memorial Day, adding that now that her son has fought overseas, she feels the pain of what the veterans went through in past wars. “It means a lot to us.” The women of the group also support each other, Dunlap said. “Moms walk in with a tissue and a picture and say, ‘My kid just left for basic,’ and we tell them it’s going to be OK,” she said.

recognition of her public-service efforts. Established in 1997, the Schottenstein award recognizes an American Signature (Value City Furniture’s parent company) employee who has demonstrated extraordinary volunteer efforts by giving back to the community. Dunlap is only the fifth recipient of the award. Her son presented it to her as a surprise guest. The Blue Star Mothers group meets monthly in Worthington; members find a way to educate the public about what really is involved when Americans are fighting overseas. When asked what the Blue Star Mothers meant to her, Dunlap said she finds it difficult to explain it in words, but offered this: “When you see the flag fly, it’s quite different when you have family in the service.”

Blue Star Mothers post flags in their windows, with one white star representing each solider in their family. Some women of the Columbus chapter have flags with as many as four stars. As president, Dunlap would present a gold star to a family who has lost a loved one. “It was a heart-wrenching thing to do,” she said. The overall mission of this group is to be patriotic, educational, social and service-oriented and to maintain true allegiance to the government of the United States, Dunlap said. Dunlap, a supervisor in American Signature’s home-office lossprevention department, was honored by the company during its annual leadership conference awards dinner in August.

Members of the New Albany High School boys tennis team had mixed feelings at the conclusion of the Division I district tournament on May 21 at Hilliard Davidson. On one hand, freshman Steven Miller Jr. had qualified for the state tournament, which starts Friday, May 27, and concludes Saturday, May 28, at Davidson. In addition, New Albany still was in the hunt for the OTCA Division I team title. On the other hand, Miller sustained an ankle injury during the district tournament, putting his status for this week in doubt. But Miller didn’t let the possibility of not being fully healthy for the state tournament or the Eagles’ match against Thomas Worthington in an OTCA regional final on May 24 take away from his district performance. “It’s so amazing to be able to represent New Albany,” Miller said. “It felt good to go out there and play and have my teammates and everyone cheering for me. People woke up early to come out and cheer for me.” There was a lot for everyone to cheer until the second set of a semifinal match against Thomas’ Casey Cempre. After losing the first set to Cempre 6-2, Miller came back to win the second set 6-4, although he twisted an ankle during the set. He was unable to continue in the third set. Later in the day, the injury prevented him from playing his third-place match against Gahanna’s Jesse Shivener and he had to settle for fourth place. Cempre went on to defeat Dublin Coffman’s Hiromi Nakayama 7-6, 6-3 to win the district championship. Since Miller finished fourth, he’ll open the state tournament against a champion from another district. “There’s such a fine line there,” coach Andrew Sinclair said. “(Miller) went from having a good shot at winning the district championship to finishing fourth and having to face another district champion at state on a gimpy ankle.” Miller was New Albany’s lone state qualifier. After defeating Worthington Kilbourne’s Brian Aguirre 6-1, 7-5 in a first-round match at district, Sean Yun lost to Nakayama 6-3, 6-2 in the second round. Sam Romanoff lost to Upper Arlington’s Brandon Griffin 6-7 (4-7), 6-2, 6-0 in his opening match. In doubles, John Hendrix and Oliver Sybert defeated Big Walnut’s Nathan Randall and Sam Lawless 6-2, 6-0 in the first round before losing to UA’s Billy Weldon and Stu Little 6-0, 6-0 in the second round.

Track & Field

Windle reaches regional in 800, on boys relays By JEREMY STEWART ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Senior Drew Windle of the New Albany High School boys track and field team is hoping his performance in the 800 meters in the Division I regional meet May 25 and Friday, May 27, at Pickerington North is good enough to kick start a future intrasquad rivalry with Alliance Marlington’s Brian Baum. Windle and Baum not only will be teammates on the Ashland University track team next spring, they will be roommates their freshman year. Both won district championships in the 800 on May 21, and both are vying for a spot at state in the event, although they have to go through different regionals to get there. “I’m really excited to get a chance to run (at regional) with some really good guys, especially since our region is really packed,” Windle said. “It will be really exciting, and the guy I’m rooming with is going to Marlington and hopefully he’ll get up there (to state) and we can start a little rivalry.” The top four finishers in each regional event advance to the state meet June 3-4 at Ohio State. In the Division I, district 1 meet, Windle set the program record by winning the 800 in 1 minute, 55.87 seconds, edging the runner-up, Westerville North’s Jacob Dumford (1:56.24). Windle also was part of two regional-qualifying relays. The

The winner plays at Mason or West Chester Lakota West in a regional final on Thursday, May 26. New Albany, which is struggling with injuries, had a firstround bye and opened the postseason by defeating Watterson 24-2 in the second round on May 18 as Emily Newman scored five goals. Ferguson had moved senior Sam Arey, who will play goalkeeper at Presbyterian College in Clinton, S.C., into the midfield earlier this spring, but she now is back in goal after starter Hannah Sommerlot suffered a concussion. Sommerlot will not return, Ferguson said, and two other players also have suffered concussions.

Boys track team wins district championship By FRANK DiRENNA

At a glance

ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Columbus Academy boys track and field team appears to have set itself up for a strong showing in the Division III regional meet by winning the district championship May 21 at Gahanna. The Vikings scored 83.5 points at district to finish first of 21 teams ahead of runner-up Berne Union (67). “I thought if we ran our races and ran them well and we ran them right, we could score a lot of points,” coach Bob Kirk said. The top four finishers in each district event qualified for the regional meet, which began May 25 and concludes Friday, May 27, at Fairfield Union. The top four in each event at regional advance to the state meet June 3-4 at Ohio State. Dominic Facciolla, Jon Michael Hilsheimer, John Sutton and Jake Tuckerman opened district by winning the 3,200-meter relay in 8 minutes, 7.21 seconds. Also finishing first were Hilsheimer in the 800 (1:58.58), Jack Lint in the 300 hurdles (40.72) and Tyler Gittins, Hilsheimer, Ben Meacham and Sutton in the 1,600 relay (3:32.16). Last season, Hilsheimer was a member of the 1,600 relay that finished first at state in 3:18.65, breaking the 16-year-old state record of 3:21.08. The girls team finished third (62) of 26 teams in the Division III district meet behind Grandview (100.5) and Mount Gilead (69). Sarah Timko led the Vikings, finishing second in the high jump (5 feet) and teaming with Aziza Corbett, An-

jali Kanwar and Annie Mampieri to place second in the 1,600 relay (4:14.59). Corbett, Melanie Knopp, Mampieri and Jillian Woodard were second in the 800 relay (1:50.21). “I couldn’t be more pleased or proud of these young women,” coach Dani Sparks said. “The weather was warmer than it has been all season and the girls went out and performed.” •Junior Langston Hughes is making a return trip to the Division II state boys tennis tournament, which will be held Friday, May 27, and Saturday, May 28, at Hilliard Davidson.

Hughes will team with junior Chris Perrini to play doubles at state after the duo won the district title May 21 at home. Hughes and Perrini won their first two matches in straight sets and then rallied to beat DeSales’John Acomb and Paul Rosile in the final 6-7, 7-5, 6-3. “I thought that was the one that had our best shot (of qualifying for state),” coach Jeff Warstler said of Hughes and Perrini. “I don’t know if I would have guaranteed a district championship. I was happy to see that happen, but going into state as a (No.) 1 seed, you give yourself some oppor-

with three runs in the sixth. Despite playing most of the season with a shoulder injury, Sergakis had a team-high .500 batting average and was named MSL-Ohio Player of the Year and district Player of the Year. A Coastal Carolina recruit, Sergakis also led the team in home runs with five and had 22 RBI. The shoulder injury limited his contributions on the mound, as he was 2-2 with a 0.95 ERA, with 33 strikeouts and 11 walks. “Nick Sergakis played hurt,” coach Jim Collis said. “We go as he goes. He’s a legitimate baseball player.” Senior Kennedy Clark batted .472, followed by junior Zach Ratcliff (.395), Frye (.378), junior Stephen Casey (.314), senior Joey Vara (.309) and freshman Lee Solomon (.305). Vara led the team in RBI with 26. On the mound, Casey was 5-1 with a 4.27 ERA, 18 strikeouts and 25 walks. Clark was first-team all-league and all-district and Ratcliff was secondteam all-league and all-district. Casey and Vara were honorable mention allleague. Senior Jon Dillon, considered the Vikings’ second-best pitcher behind Sergakis, missed most of the season with an elbow injury. “Losing our No. 1 and 2 to get to where we got was pretty rewarding for the kids,” Collis said. Academy tied Granville for third in the league, behind Newark Catholic (12-2) and Heath (10-4) and ahead of Bexley (7-7), Lakewood (4-10), Whitehall (3-11) and Licking Valley (2-12). fdirenna@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

The game resumed the next day at Olentangy, and Academy rallied, scoring five runs in the fourth inning and two more in the fifth. Junior James Frye’s two-run home run in the fourth highlighted the rally. Against Bloom-Carroll, Academy again rallied, erasing a 2-0 deficit with three runs in the fourth. The Bulldogs, however, reclaimed the lead with two runs in the fifth. Nick Sergakis homered for the Vikings in the bottom of the fifth to tie the game at 4, but Bloom-Carroll took the lead for good

Olentangy Orange was second at 95, followed by Mount Vernon (8-5), Watkins Memorial (8-5), Delaware (6-7), Big Walnut (6-8), Hilliard Bradley (6-8) and Franklin

Heights (0-13). Four of the eight teams did not complete their league schedules. Five OCC-Capital teams reached a district semifinal, including Watkins Memorial and Orange in Division I and Big Walnut and Bradley in Division II. McMartin joined Krebs as a first-team all-league selection, and both made firstteam all-district. Senior Bryant Bednarek, who will play football at Davidson College in Davidson, N.C., made honorable mention all-district. Krebs, who Talpas said was named to the Minuzo all-state team, is looking at Akron and also is considering walking on at Ohio State. The other seniors are Nick Bowman, Demaree Parsons, Nick Sosh, Ray VanBoven

and Austin Winterbauer. Parsons had a 31 pitching record and VanBoven was 4-3. In addition to McMartin and Kriss, expected to return are juniors Dan Brittan (OF), Austin Morlan (3B/P), Zach Sevenish (2B), Nick Stahlman (SS) and Zach Tomi (OF). Morlan had a 2-0 pitching record. Kriss also played first base. “We had a good year; I’ll take it,” said Talpas, whose team won its third league championship in five seasons after unseating two-time champion Mount Vernon. “We won 19 games. A lot of teams would take that, especially this year.” kadams@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Financial finesse

Be prepared by getting pre-approved Despite countless stories about the troubles in the housing market, there are many options available. That said, the first step in determining whether or not to shop for that new home is to discuss your financial situation with a trusted mortgage professional and get pre-approved. A pre-approval is one of two common processes prospective homebuyers engage in before making an offer on a home; pre-qualification is the other. Both allow customers to begin the buying process with a good idea of what they can afford, but there are clear advantages to going one step beyond pre-qualification to get pre-approved. Pre-qualification uses a home-buyer’s financial information — income, debts and other monthly obligations, such as child support payments — to determine a buyer’s debt ratio. Depending on how much or how little is available for a down payment, this process helps to determine the size mortgage the buyer can afford and the type of mortgage that best meets the buyer’s needs. Pre-approval takes the approval process to the end — almost. Only a few items remain outstanding, such as an appraisal of the property and confirmation the buyer will have whatever cash is needed for the closing.

For a comparatively small fee — usually about $50 — lenders will work through the steps necessary to receive a mortgage. Buyers who get pre-approved know exactly which financial guidelines they are working within. The BRIAN pre-approved buyer has the lender’s approval for a speBURSTEIN cific mortgage amount. Lenders and real estate agents sometimes say pre-approval is the “same as cash,” which can often be an advantage in beating out other buyers. Searching for the right home, arranging a comfortable mortgage and closing the deal can be a challenging process. So doing a little legwork up front by becoming pre-approved can make the other challenges a whole lot easier.
