8 State wins, Walmart loses in liquor votes By ANDREW KING THISWEEKNEWS.COM It was a mixed Election Day for businesses seeking liquor option votes in Westerville Tuesday, with a planned upscale restaurant in Uptown, another restaurant and a mini-mart winning approval, but the new south Westerville Walmart being dealt a narrow defeat. In Westerville Precinct 1-A, voters approved two liquor options for 8 State Bistro by wide margins. The upscale restaurant locating in the old State Theater hopes to open by the end of the year. The restaurant’s weekday alcohol option passed by a vote of 313 to 62, while its SunWesterville City Council members Larry Jenkins (left) and Kathy Cocuzzi, with city Parks and Recreation Director Randy Auler, watch Issue 24 results come in at Jimmy V’s in Uptown Westerville on Tuesday evening, Nov. 4. Voters approved the extension of the city’s 0.25-percent PROS income tax with more than 60 percent in favor. CHRIS PARKER/THISWEEKNEWS
Parks tax extension rolls to win Major extension of bike path system, big addition to Community Center and more now on tap
By ANDREW KING THISWEEKNEWS.COM Westerville voters overwhelmingly approved Issue 24 Tuesday, Nov. 4, extending the city’s PROS tax for parks for another 20 years. The “yes” vote on Issue 24 renews the city’s 0.25-percent income tax dedicated to funding parks and recreation facilities and maintenance, and sets the table for tens of millions of dollars in new facilities to be built over the next 25 years. For Westerville Parks and Recreation Director Randy Auler, the extension comes as a vote of confidence as well as an ability
to move forward. “I think it’s a testament to the work that council and staff have done over the years,” he said. “We engage the community in everything we do, and they have ownership that way.” Now, he says, the department will be able to plan further ahead than in the past. “The key to everything we do in Westerville is engaging the community in the process and doing effective planning,” he said. “This gives us the tool to do the planning.” Councilwoman Kathy Cocuzzi said she was ecstatic about the vote outcome.
Gathered at Jimmy V’s Grill and Pub in Uptown, city officials declared victory for Issue 24 before 10 p.m. “I’m very grateful to the city of Westerville for showing their support for our excellent parks system,” Cocuzzi said. “We’re truly ‘a city within a park,’ and our residents understand that.” The wide margin of victory, she said, was to be expected. According to final, unofficial vote results from the Franklin and Delaware counties boards of election, the issue won 60.2 to 39.8 percent in Franklin County portions of the city, and 66.3 percent to 33.7 percent in the Delaware

County portions. “I’m not surprised because our citizens truly get it,” Cocuzzi said. “We engaged with them from the very beginning with the master plan and asking their opinion of what we need to do in the future. They all understood that and turned out today in support.” Like Cocuzzi, Auler said the vote speaks volumes of the community’s support of the parks and recreation department. “The city understands the value of parks system and where the future lies in terms of meeting their needs, and they came out to

Franklin County Children Services
Issue 4 approved by 2-1 vote margin By GARY SEMAN JR. THISWEEKNEWS.COM Voters gave their blessing to a 10year, 1.9-mill renewal levy sought by Franklin County Children Services. At 11:15 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 4, with 1,075 of 1,086 precincts reporting, Issue 4 was winning 194,217 (70 percent) to 83,509 (30 percent), according to unofficial results from the Franklin County Board of Elections. Deborrha Armstrong, spokeswoman for the agency, said officials were pleased with the results.
“We’re just very appreciative of the community’s support and we want to thank everyone for making this a successful effort on behalf of our families and the children we serve,” she said.
The issue, which will cost the owner of a $100,000 house $54 a year, will raise about $46 million annually. It will not increase taxes. “I think a lot of people didn’t know we were on the ballot and the ones who did know were confused whether it raised taxes or not,” said Doris Calloway Moore, campaign manager for the pro-levy group Committee 4 Children. “But we had a lot of people out there working hard, trying to get our message out that it didn’t raise taxes and the community responded,”

support us,” he said. “Tonight, they weighed in with another positive vote moving forward. ... We have known over time that the residents really support the parks system and value the parks system ... because they own the parks system and we deliver the results.” The 0.25-percent PROS tax initially was implemented in 1999, and was set to expire in 2019 without the extension. It built a $30 million slate of parks projects, with about $18 million spent to construct the Westerville Community Center. The projects were built with city bonds, which are being paid back through the dedicated income tax revenue.
But the bond capacity of the tax revenue through 2019 has nearly been exhausted. The city needed to guarantee the revenue through 2040 to support another ambitious slate of projects. They include an expansion of the city’s recreation trail system from about 29 miles to 5055 miles over the next 15-20 years, and a major addition to the Community Center that will bring the Westerville Senior Center under the same roof at 350 N. Cleveland Ave. The Westerville Senior Center now is housed in a separate building, at 310 W. Main St. In its first year of collection in 1999, the tax produced $3.1 million in revenue. That number is projected to reach nearly $6 million annually by 2019
and city officials say they have not projected beyond 2019. The renewed tax will now run through Dec. 31, 2039. Auler and city staff, working with residents on the updated PROS Master Plan identify five major areas where funds from the renewal will be focused: • Expanding the recreational pathway system; • Expanding the Community Center; • Expanding recreation along the Alum Creek waterway; • Developing additional and improving current sports fields; and • Improving and enhancing existing parks. aking@thisweeknews.com

After a controversial rezoning that included a threatened referendum in 2011, the 108,000-square-foot Walmart opened in Westerville Square in August 2013. But unlike the Kroger store catty-corner to it at State Street and Schrock Road, the new Walmart does not offer alcohol sales. Elsewhere in the Tuesday, Nov. 4 election, voters in precinct 2-G passed four separate liquor options for Certified Oil, the parent company of the Sunoco station at 131 S. Sunbury Road. The station’s weekday beer option passed 208 to 135 votes while its Sunday sales passed 183 to 160. Its weekday wine sales passed comfortably by a vote of 191 to 151, but its Sunday wine sales passed by just a single vote, 172 to 171, the elections board reported. In Delaware County, Yabo’s Tacos passed two options for spiritous liquor sales in Genoa Township’s Precinct D. The restaurant’s weekday sales passed by a vote of 360 to 126, while Sunday sales passed by a vote of 340 to 144, according to unofficial results from the Delaware County Board of Elections.
day sales – enabling the restaurant to sell alcohol for a Sunday brunch – passed 296 to 81, according to unofficial results from the Franklin County Board of Elections. Owner Kevin Campbell said passing the options was a huge relief. “This is truly a win for Westerville,” he said. “Uptown and all of Westerville needed an upscale-style space, and without a liquor license, it just wasn’t going to work. And we’re thrilled to be able to execute our Sunday brunch, which we think is a great menu.” While Campbell emphasized getting the word out before the election, he credited precinct voters with the decision. “I attribute it to people recognizing that there was a vacancy that existed here in Uptown,” he said. “There are a couple of bars and taverns, but there wasn’t that nice place you could be proud to take a date or a place to celebrate.” In precinct 5-B, the new Walmart at 50 E. Schrock Road was the lone loser of the night. The supercenter failed to pass its weekday beer sales option by a vote of 179 to 173 and its weekday wine option by a vote of 178 to 174. aking@thisweeknews.com
Neighbors in the news • Westerville resident Clay Thompson, national sales director for the digital marketing firm Fugent, has been named to the board of directors of the Furniture Bank of Central Ohio.
Previously Thompson spent 20 of his 30 years in financial services at Nationwide Financial in a variety of positions. The Furniture Bank of Central Ohio provides free furniture to area families struggling
with poverty and other life challenges. Each year, the Furniture Bank has helped more than 4,100 families by providing each with 13-15 pieces of furniture.
Moore said. Children Services, the establishment of which is mandated by law, receives 31,000 calls annually reporting suspected neglect and abuse of children and investigates about a third. The levy was originally passed in 1963 as a 1.5-mill levy and has continued to be renewed or replaced by different amounts five times since then. In March 2004, it was passed as 1.9 mills. A separate ballot option, a 3.1mill levy, was introduced in 2009. That way, Children Services wouldn’t need
to rely on one tax issue for the majority of its funding, Armstrong said. “Our agency has continued to provide high-quality services and carry out our mission to protect children through strengthening families,” she said. “And I think we’ve proven we’ve been good stewards of public dollars that have been entrusted to us,” Armstrong said. ”I think the community believes we take our responsibilities seriously.” gseman@thisweeknews.com

Franklin County Auditor
Mingo defeats Schadek, retains his post By NATE ELLIS THISWEEKNEWS.COM
Incumbent Franklin County Auditor Clarence Mingo will spend another four years in office after being re-elected Tuesday, Nov. 4. Mingo, a 42-year-old Republican, scored a victory over Democratic challenger Mike Schadek, a current member of Upper Arlington City Council. With all 1,086 precincts reporting Tuesday night, Nov. 4, Mingo held a lead of 153,387 votes (56 percent) to Schadek’s 122,446 votes (44 percent), according to unofficial results from the Franklin County Board of Elections. “I’m thankful to the voters of Franklin County for awarding me with another four-year term,” Mingo
said in a statement issued by his spokesman, David O’Neil. “We look forward to continuing improvements in the office and moving the office into the 21st century.” Mingo was appointed auditor in August 2009, then elected to a full term in November 2010. Schadek, 46, will remain on Upper Arlington City Council, a post he’s held since being elected in 2011. “I would like to congratulate Clarence Mingo on his victory,”
Schadek said. “This was a hardfought campaign and I met incredible people throughout Franklin County. “I will continue public service and continue trying to make Franklin County a better place to live, work and raise a family.” According to pre-election campaign finance reports filed Oct. 23 with the Franklin County Board of Elections, Mingo raised $133,421 to Schadek’s $48,235 after the May primary through the end of the reporting period, Oct. 15. Overall, Mingo had $305,873.64 in his war chest to Schadek’s $96,337, according to those reports. Election Day capped off a race that was heated at times. An ad from Mingo’s campaign accused Schadek of defaulting on
two mortgages, supporting a 25 percent tax increase and sponsoring legislation to ease restrictions on sex offenders. Schadek denied those assertions, saying the mortgage issues were for two investment properties that eventually were resolved through a shortsale process, and noting the Upper Arlington City Attorney’s Office randomly assigned him a proposed ordinance that sought to remove a city restriction against sex offenders working within 1,000 feet of any school, preschool, day-care facility, public park or swimming pool, library or playground. Schadek fired back by pointing to an ongoing Ohio Ethics Commission investigation of Mingo regarding a consulting contract Mingo awarded to a former chief of staff
after she had been fired from the auditor’s office. At the time she was fired, Jerzell Pierre-Louis said she had questioned Mingo about rumors he had an inappropriate relationship with a subordinate. She later stated the rumors about Mingo were untrue. Mingo gave her a $135,000 consulting contract that the Ohio Auditor’s Office found did not require Pierre-Louis to document her time as a consultant. The contract also said the county auditor would have to pay the full cost of the contract even if he terminated it early. Mingo has said none of the accusations against him have merit and noted the state auditor found PierreLouis provided valuable services to the county through her contract.
Columbus City Charter Amendments
Bunny trail leads fest to Voters approve 19 changes new North Columbus home packaged in Issues 6, 7 and 8 Founded in 2011, Midwest BunFest draws hundreds of rabbit owners By KEVIN PARKS THISWEEKNEWS.COM Midwest BunFest, billed as the “largest rabbit-related exposition in the eastern United States,” will hop to a new location for the 2014 edition. The annual event, set Saturday, Nov. 8, and put on by Clintonville-based Ohio House Rabbit Rescue, was held at Whitehall Community Park for its first three years. Uncertainty about being able to reserve the space for a fourth straight year led those involved with the nonprofit organization to look elsewhere, and they settled on the Ramada Plaza and Conference Center, 4900 Sinclair Road, said Pat Barron, co-chairwoman of the Midwest BunFest. The event, which features educational sessions for rabbit owners and information for those considering adopting a rabbit, will run from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is $5 for adults, $3 for children. “It’s going to be a great location,” Barron said. “It’s bigger. It’s a venue where people from out of town can come and stay in the hotel as well as go to BunFest, so it’s a great move for us. “Also, we were outgrowing that location. We really needed to move anyway.” About 200 people attended the inaugural BunFest in 2011, the co-chairwoman said. That figure had grown to 600 for last year’s
gathering. “We’re hoping with the new venue we can just continue to grow year after year,” Barron said. “They come from as far away as California. We have a rescue operation from Iowa that’s a rescue partner this year. We have people who come from Florida. We have a vendor from Connecticut. It really is the whole eastern United States.” The highlight of BunFest is a full day of educational sessions taught by nationally known veterinarians and educators, according to the announcement for this year’s fest. Sessions include Bunny Basics, Keeping Your Rabbit Healthy and Best Bunny Food, as well as sessions on common rabbit illnesses, alternative medicine and caring for aging rabbits. A complete schedule of the education sessions, including a description of the topics and background on the speakers, is available at midwestbunfest. org. Ohio House Rabbit Rescue was founded in 2009 by longtime bunny owner Beverly May of Clintonville. In central Ohio, more than 900 rabbits are offered for surrender each year at animal shelters or rescues, according to the organization’s website. Rabbits not placed in a shelter are frequently released outdoors, amounting to a “death sentence,” the site says. The nonprofit operates a rescue and adoption center at 5485 N. High St.

Charter Review Commission, which was convened in April. “It was nothing more than an update in a lot of technical and, frankly, rather boring chapters of the charter,” said Curtin, a Democratic state representative from Marble Cliff who also won re-election to his seat as representative from the 17th District Nov. 4. “And, fortunately, of those 19 changes within those three city issues we’ve been able to bring the charter into the 21st century.” The charter changes deal with city administration, elections and office holders. Curtin said none of the measures was controversial. The commission simply sought to bring some antiquated language up to date. One example is a 100-yearold recall petition, which said
a voter could only sign a recall petition at the city clerk’s office or city firehouses. The change will allow recall petitions to be circulated as any other petition. Now, with voter consent, the Charter Review Commission is mandated to meet every 10 years. Curtin said he’s pleased the requirement is there, but suspects it will meet more often, should the need arise. He said city administration and council want to address residency requirements for city employees. Although the Ohio Supreme Court ruled that such requirements are unconstitutional, it “needs to be dealt with one way or another,” Curtin said. He said the commission didn’t have time to address it before the election. gseman@thisweeknews.com

Day by day
Thanksgiving reminds us to let go, forgive
When we think of slow baking, we might get our CrockPot ready for the sweet smells of cooking low and slow. The fragrance of soup, meats and even desserts will fill our home, if we are fortunate enough to have the pot and ingredients. With Thanksgiving happening this month, we are thinking of what to cook and who to cook for. Many will give of themselves to serve meals at shelters or churches; giving back to their community for those less fortunate. God bless them all with clean motives of love abounding. The word forbearance was used in my daily devotion recently and I checked the dictionary to make sure I had the right definition. Basically, it is a byproduct of love and means to have patience when provoked; being willing to put up with people’s actions and inactions – to let things go and to forgive. No one says it’s easy but it is possible. In the book Lee: The Last Years, by Charles Bracelen Flood, a story about Robert E. Lee illustrates my thoughts. After the end of the Civil War, Lee visited a woman in Kentucky who showed him the remains of what was once a grand, old tree. It had been destroyed by federal artillery fire. Crying, the woman looked for Lee to condemn the Northerners or sympathize with her loss. His response: “Cut it down, dear Madam, and forget it.” When I asked my friend Suzanne if she thought writing about forbearance while thinking of giving thanks this month, in particular, made sense, she didn’t hesitate. “Being able to forgive is one of the best gifts God has given us,” she said. “So yes, we need to be thankful about all things, including our learning to let things go.” Lack of communication or poor communication can break down even the smallest family or corporation. Add to that a lack of patience and walls go up that create divisions that are hard to break down or through. Offenses are exaggerated to the point where we might even forget how it all began. “A (fly’s) egg becomes as huge as ever was laid by an ostrich,” Charles Spurgeon said about offenses magnified out of proportion. I’ve been there, done that – seen that. It takes someone saying something to break through that wall of conflict and wave a white flag; call it quits and start again. On the lighter side, Erma
Bombeck wrote with humor on living, through her years. Near the end of her life, she was asked LIZ what she THOMPSON would do differently if she had a chance to live her life again. Many famous quotes came from her answers: burning that fancy pink candle instead of letting it collect dust, not worrying about grass stains and playing with her children more, but the following quote relates to my writing today: “There would have been more I love yous ... more I’m sorrys ... more I’m listenings ... but mostly, given another shot at life, I would seize every minute of it ... look at it and really see it ... try it on ... live it ... exhaust it ... and never give that minute back until there was nothing left of it.” We need to decide whether to let our annoyances slow bake or let them go. It’s hard to be thankful when our hearts and minds are busy being angry. And you might already know it takes more muscles to frown than to smile; not just the baring teeth smile but the true smile that reaches the eyes. Smiling is only an indication of being open to forgiving, forgetting (at least not bringing up old hurts repeatedly) and being willing to “cut it down.” This month, we think more about what we are thankful for because of the national holiday. It’s a good reminder to be thankful year-round. I look at the birds at our feeder and realize how hard they must work for daily food and I become more thankful. Physical things such as food, clothing and shelter are temporary and shifting. The long-term, year-round list for me includes family, friends, memories, and acts of love and forgiveness I have experienced in my life. There isn’t paper enough to write it all down. Jan Karon wrote in Somewhere Safe with Somebody Good, “Love is an act of endless forgiveness.” Sounds right to me. But check that Crock-Pot to make sure your food doesn’t burn. You likely have hungry people to feed.
As it were
First prison sat on donated land
There was no town on the “High Banks” opposite the village of Franklinton on the east side of the forks of the Scioto and Olentangy rivers until the Ohio General Assembly brought the town of Columbus into being in 1812. Four men called the “Proprietors” had acquired the land on the ridge and had made an offer to the legislature. If the capital city of Ohio was relocated to their site, they would give 10 acres for a statehouse, 10 acres for a penitentiary and $50,000 – an immense sum at that time – for the construction of buildings. Longtime residents of Columbus will recall that the Ohio Penitentiary occupied a large site at the corner of Neil Avenue and Spring Street for many years until it was demolished to make way for the Arena District. In fact the institution had been at that site, in one form or another, for about 150 years. But that is not where the Ohio Penitentiary began. The original 10 acres given to the state by the Proprietors of Columbus occupied the southwest corner of what is now West Main Street and Marconi Boulevard. The site looked considerably different in those days and sloped more precipitously down toward the Scioto River. At the corner of Main and Marconi and facing Marconi, a three-story brick building began to be constructed in 1813. The clay for the bricks to build the prison was taken from the large Indian mound at the corner of Local author Liz Thompson Mound and High streets. Half of the basement was writes the Day by day column for ThisWeek News. Reach her built into the side of the hill at blt78@columbus.rr.com. and was underground. The
building was 60 feet long by 30 feet wide. The lower level was divided into a basement, kitchen ED and dining LENTZ room for prisoners. It could be entered only from the prison yard. The next story above was the home of the keeper of the penitentiary and was entered from the street. The third story was divided into 13 cells – according to one account “four dark and nine light ones”– and could only be entered by a stair from the prison yard. The prison yard was about 100 feet square and was enclosed by a 15- to 18-foot-tall stone wall. In 1818, a larger prison building was built. It was 150 feet long and 34 feet wide and faced Main Street down the hill from the old building. It was two stories high and had a dining hall and kitchen on the ground floor. On the second floor were 54 cells and a hospital ward. Below ground were five dark cells for solitary confinement. The original prison was linked to the new structure and was refitted to be the keeper’s house. The prison yard was expanded to 400 feet east and west and about 160 feet north and south. All of this was done under the supervision of Judge Jarvis Pike, who had become the first mayor of Columbus in 1816. Pike was acting as agent for the state of Ohio in his work at the penitentiary. This prison provided manpower to build a number of other state institutions in the

city but it was not all that secure. One account later summed up the situation. “There were about every year more or less escapes from the old prison.” In the 1820s, it was planned that the National Road would come west through Columbus. By 1830, it was clear that the road would enter Columbus on Main Street. To state officials, this meant the largest highway in the state would pass right by – if not through – the prison. This – combined with continuing escapes – prompted the Ohio General Assembly to move the prison into what was then out in the country at the corner of Neil and Spring streets. Work began in 1832 and prisoners were moved to the new prison in 1834. Within a year, the walls of the old prison were torn down. Two years later saw the removal of the second main prison building. The original three-story building and a brick storehouse were used by the Ohio Quar-
termaster General for the storage and repair of firearms until 1855. In that year, the buildings were torn down and their bricks used in the construction of the new Ohio Statehouse. The ownership of the lot was vigorously contested when it was no longer used as a penitentiary. In 1847, local attorney Elijah Backus claimed he had acquired quitclaim rights to the site from the Proprietors. His claim was that the site passed back to the Proprietors as it was no longer used for its original purpose. The state of Ohio argued that the site belonged to the state and could be sold to benefit the state. The case went before many courts for several years with the state finally winning control. In 1860, a state arsenal would be built on part of the site. It is still there as the Columbus Cultural Arts Center.

Woolly bear caterpillar: Is it an accurate winter weather predictor? What can we expect this winter? Will it be cold and snowy? The woolly bear caterpillar may have the answer. So what should you look for and what do scientists say about this little creature’s forecast? According to folklore, the amount of black on the wooly bear varies proportionately with the severity of the coming CHRIS winter. The longer the black bands, the colder BRADLEY and snowier our winter will be. The longer the brown bands, the milder our upcoming winter. And more specifically, the position of the dark bands indicates which part of winter will be cold-
ing adult size. With each successive molt, their colors change, becoming less black and more reddish. In addition, there are approximately 260 species of tiger moths (the adult of the woolly bear caterpillar) in North America, and each species has slightly different color patterns and hair coverings. Turns out some of the color and hair variations that we see each fall are a result of these different species. Let me know what the woolly bears look like in your neighborhood. Message me on my Facebook Page (facebook.com/chrisbradley10tv) and look for the latest forecast on 10tv.com.
est. If the head of the caterpillar is dark, the beginning of winter will be severe. If the tail end is dark, the end of winter will be cold. According to the National Weather Service, the woolly bear caterpillar’s coloring is based on how long the caterpillar has been feeding, its age and species. The better the growing season is, the bigger it will grow. Scientists say this will result in narrower redorange bands in its middle. The width of the banding is an indicator of the current or past season’s growth rather than an indicator of the severity of the upcoming winter. Also, the coloring indicates the age of the Chris Bradley is chief meteorologist at woolly bear caterpillar.

My Very Own Blanket thanks those who helped grand opening To the Editor: I would like to thank the community of Westerville for joining My Very Own Blanket at its grand opening to celebrate 15 years of our mission and ministry at our new location, 175 E. Broadway Ave., former home of WARM. So many people took time out of their busy day to help make our celebration a wonderful event! I would like to thank my family, friends and many Blanket Angels who helped in so many ways to make the Blanket Workshop our new home. Thank you to Max & Erma's Polaris for providing the food, Edna and Tanya Stewart for making the cake, Noelle Jackson and her carpool group for making the cupcakes, Kroger and Tim Hortons on Cleveland Avenue for their in-kind donations, Worthington Presbyterian Church and the Senior High Youth Group, 104.9 The River for their hard work and providing the music, the Public Children Services Association of Ohio volunteers, the OSU University Partnership Program Volunteers, Magic Nate, Danny Staudt the Tallest Man in the World, Westerville Area Chamber of Commerce and Janet Davis, Dayton Women’s Prison, and BSA Troop 192. And, lastly, thank you to all of the Blanket Angels who have sewn thousands of blankets over the past 15 years to warm the hearts of so many children in the foster care system, giving them a feeling of comfort, security and most of all, a SMILE. My Very Own Blanket would like to extend an invitation to the community to stop by for a tour or to volunteer! Visit our workshop from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday, or from 6:30-8:30 p.m. Wednesday evenings. The ability to sew is not required. Please visit our website for a list of volunteer activities. Jessica Hollins, president and founder, My Very Own Blanket
Bicyclists: Use common sense, common courtesy on bike trails
To the Editor: Just a note to the two women wearing high visibility orange and yellow jackets who passed me as I walked my dog, southbound on the Genoa bike trail on Sunday, Oct. 12: Try some common sense and common courtesy! You didn’t announce your passing as a cyclist is supposed to. (A bright and cheery “Good morning” as you are next to someone is NOT the same as a “passing left” warning that you are
coming up from behind and about to pass. For that matter, several bikes passed us during our walk, and only one gave us the “passing left” warning, but at least they didn’t almost hit us.) You continued to ride side by side instead of going single file as you passed. And you still used both sides of the path as you went by, coming within a foot of me, so close that I felt the air move as you went by, even though I was off to the right side of my half of the path. I or my dog could easily have moved to the left, stayed on our half, and still be struck by you on your bikes. Common sense and common courtesy. Give it a try. Seriously. This may come as a shock to you (and many others), but you’re not the only person using the path. And whether there is one of you, or a hundred of you, on wheel or on foot, you still only get half the path. John Tripp

The Military Veterans Educational Foundation, also known as MilVets, will hold its Columbus Veterans Day Parade at noon Friday, Nov. 7, in downtown Columbus. This year’s parade is titled “Paying it Forward” because of the touching gift a young boy gave to a veteran in uniform. The parade will line up at Nationwide Boulevard and High Street. Ite will step off an travel south on High Street to Broad
Street and concludes at Franklin County Veterans Memorial, said Carrie Killngsworth, a volunteer for MilVets and a retirement plan specialist at Nationwide Insurance, which sponsors the event. Participation is free and open to the public. Those who want to march in the parade can fill out an application at www.mil-vets.org. Killingsworth said this year’s theme originated from a selfless act by Myles Eckert, whose father, Sgt. Andy Eckert, died in Iraq. Eckert, then 8 years old, and

With less than two weeks remaining in its annual Thanksgiving food drive, the Westerville Area Resource Ministry is confident it will reach its goal of feeding 350 families for the holiday. WARM, now operating in its new, larger facility on Heatherdown Drive, hopes to top last year’s number of 300.
“We want our families to be experiencing Thanksgiving in as typical of a fashion as they can, in a very stressful time in their lives.” – CHERYL WOOTEN
Westerville Area Resource Ministry
Director of development and communications Cheryl Wooten said this year’s need is even greater. “We base that 350 number on the number of families that have really indicated that they need some help this Thanks-
giving, as well as our current client base,” she said. To make their Thanksgiving packages, WARM looks largely for ingredients and traditional Thanksgiving items. A turkey as well as cranberry sauce, stuffing, pies and other
holiday favorites are all important. “We want our families to be experiencing Thanksgiving in as typical of a fashion as they can, in a very stressful time in their lives,” Wooten said. Monetary donations are more than welcome as well, and can often allow WARM to buy more food than the typical person. “Our monetary donations go further because of our buying power,” Wooten said. “So we

My Very Own Blanket CEO and founder Jessica Hollins stands in the organization’s spacious new workroom, where volunteers make quilts and blankets for children in foster care to keep through the tumultuous process. In October, the local nonprofit moved from its 600square-foot facility down the street to 175 E. Broadway Ave., the former home of the Westerville Area Resource Ministry. The new location is 10 times larger, and Hollins said she hopes to increase production from about 7,000 blankets a year to more than 10,000. My Very Own Blanket has donated more than 65,000 blankets to children since Hollins launched it in 1999. ANDREW KING/THISWEEKNEWS

On Tuesday, Westerville voters missed a “golden opportunity” to keep city income taxes from increasing by 0.25% on January 1, 2021 by voting no on Issue 24. I am disgusted that the approval was decided by thousands of voters who pay zero taxes to Westerville. Many voters may have thought a 0.25% tax increase was trivial, especially if they did not have to pay it themselves. However, consider a Westerville household median income of about $90,000. A 0.25% tax reduction would lower one’s tax burden by $225 per year.
Three Better Ideas for Families to Use $225 Per Year ◆ Children’s College Education: Take $225 per year and invest it in Ohio’s “tax free” 529 College Savings Plan. Just $225 invested per year for 20 years and earning 7% per year would generate over $9,000. This could help reduce student loan debt significantly as today’s college students are graduating with an average college loan debt burden of approximately $30,000. ◆ Pre-pay House Mortgage: Families could pay off their mortgage early. Paying an extra $225 per year on a $200,000 30-year 4% mortgage would save in excess of $6,000 and the mortgage paid off one year early. Once this mortgage is paid off it would “free up” monthly cash flow of almost a thousand dollars or $12,000 per year. ◆ 401(k) or Roth IRA Plan: Invest an additional $225/year in your 401(k) plan or Roth tax-free IRA plan. $225 per year ($18.75 per month--about 62 cents per day) invested for 40 years at 8% would snowball to approximately $58,000. I think readers will readily agree that utilizing monies for one’s own family is a much better alternative than giving it to our city council to squander. The million dollar question is, “What are we to do here in Westerville and other suburbs?” Politicians continue to raise taxes and spend lavishly on ostentatious and self-indulgent projects. Well, I for one, am mad as !*¥€*+#. Are you? If so speak up!! * * * Financial Tip * * * Pay extra on your mortgage every month by whatever you can afford. This will save your family thousands of dollars. Once your mortgage is paid off and you are debt free you can probably retire at a much younger age.

The Franklin County Commissioners have a new loan program to help local municipalities fund infrastructure projects. In a meeting held Oct. 29 at the Pinnacle Golf Club in Grove City, the commissioners announced the launch of Infrastructure Works. It’s a revolving loan program that awards competitive loans to municipalities for infrastructure projects that promote economic development. The loans, capped at 50 percent of the total infrastructure project cost, range from oneyear bridge loans up to 10-year terms. They have a maximum of $1 million with fixed, belowmarket interest rates. “Any kind of public infrastructure can be eligible,” said Commissioner John O’Grady. “We’re not trying to be the bricks of the projects but the
mortar that ties them together.” All cities, villages and townships in Franklin County are eligible borrowers. Potential projects cited included transportation, traditional and renewable energy, water and telecommunications. “It’s a way for us to work with our local governments to leverage our investments,” said Commissioner Marilyn Brown. “None of us can do it alone.” The commissioners will fund the program with $3.5 million annually for the next four or five years, with the money coming from the half-percent sales tax increase the commissioners put in place last year. The loans will be administered by the county Economic Development and Planning Department. Applications will be rated by a loan committee of five to seven private and public professionals, appointed by the commissioners. The committee will rank the loans based on their economic

development and job creation potential as well as the project’s viability and creditworthiness. The committee will make recommendations to the commissioners, and the commissioners will vote on those recommendations at general session meetings. Economic Development and Planning Department Director James Schimmer said the committee members will likely be named by the beginning of the year. The entire process, from submission to decision, is expected to take two to three months. “We’ll give them a quick answer,” Schimmer said. “You’ve got to be nimble.” The county also will hold
two funding rounds each year. Applications for the first round of awards are being accepted until Jan. 30, with awards projected to go out by March 15. Grove City Administrator Chuck Boso, attending the program announcement Oct. 29, said he doesn’t see any development on the near horizon in Grove City that would be eligible. “I’m sure there’s going to be a lot of competition for those funds,” Boso said. “There’s opportunity to use the program (in the future) and hopefully we will.” For more information about Infrastructure Works, visit franklincountyohio.gov/smartworks.
Developers again eye Ulry Road for project
Neighbors still oppose apartments, ask for environmental studies on the 68-acre tract By KEVIN PARKS THISWEEKNEWS.COM by Dan Roush Employee Owner STOP COSTLY AIR LEAKS
A cold draft on your feet after entering the front or rear door may be a sign of worn threshold weather-stripping. If so, it can be easily replaced to ensure a tighter seal. Begin by measuring the door width and bringing in a sample of the old vinyl weather-stripping. Wood and metal thresholds take different profiles of weather-stripping. One common type is vinyl seal weather-stripping with flanges that fit tightly into grooves in the threshold. To insert in place, start at one end of the threshold and a wood-tapping block, if necessary, to drive the flanges all the way down into the threshold grooves. This is just one of the small tricks that can save you big bucks this winter. From low-tech solutions like weather-stripping to high-tech ones, like programmable thermostats, ROUSH HARDWARE has all the tools and hardware that you need to winter-proof your house. As the weather cools down, come talk to our expert staff members to learn more about the little projects you can do around your house to lower your heating bills this winter. Give us a call at 614-882-3623 today if you have any questions for our friendly staff. Our address is 609 S. State St.,Westerville.

tion in early 2012, was back before the committee last week, but this time on behalf of McCorkle Soaring Eagles LLC, the owner of the site. The purpose of appearing before the advisory panel without seeking a recommendation of any kind – in fact, before a rezoning application has even been filed – was to discuss various ideas for the site “on a completely informal basis,” she said. “We’re still trying to figure out exactly what we want to do here,” Tangeman admitted. Three different uses are
A 68-acre parcel off Ulry Road, once proposed as the site of an apartment and retail complex that drew the ire of nearby residents, is again being looked at for development. Nearby residents turned out in force at last week’s meeting of the Northland Community Council Development Committee, even though the members were only listening to an informal presentation about land that has yet to be annexed into the city from Blendon Township. Attorney Jill S. Tangeman, a partner in the firm Vorys, Sater, Seymour and Pease LLP, who represented Preferred Real FROM >> A8 Estate when the mixed-used project was under considera- can always take a dollar and stretch it into more than just food donations. But we accept and welcome both.” One emphasis this year is on nutrition. While some items are easier to find, organizers would prefer for people to focus on nutritional value just as much as they do in their own homes. “If you’re giving toward Thanksgiving, think about what your own families enjoy at Thanksgiving,” Wooten said. “We're looking to be a nutritional pantry, so if you can pur-
under consideration now for about 63 acres of the site; the rest is wetlands and a stream. The property is bounded on the south by Warner Road and on the east by Ulry Road. One section along the Warner Road side is being looked at for a 250-unit apartment project by Metro Development, according to Tangeman. That would be a density of just under eight units an acre, down from the 10 units per acre sought two years ago. Another area, close to the intersection of Ulry and Warner roads, is earmarked for a pos-
sible assisted-living facility of between 85 and 100 beds, Tangeman told committee members. The third and final proposal, for the southern section of the site, would be 140 units of condominiums to be built by Ryan Homes. “We’re very excited about this site,” said Gary Smith, appearing on behalf of Ryan Homes. Jim Ohlin, also representing Ryan Homes, said the condos would be for “empty-
chase things for the same price with less sugar or sodium, that's what we're looking for as well.” Each year, turkeys are the most sought-after item, but things such as milk and other easily perishable items are always in high demand as well. But perhaps more importantly, Wooten hopes the wave of positivity around the holidays won’t lead to people forgoing donations in other months. “The message is always, ‘Don't forget about us in January, February and June,’ ” she said. “People start going on vacation in June, and in Jan-
uary and February, it’s not a time when people typically think of giving to the pantry. Everything we get during the holidays, if it’s not used immediately, it goes to those months.” Organizers hope to have all donations accounted for by Monday, Nov. 10, but will continue accepting through Nov. 17. Those interested in making a donation can contact WARM at 614-899-0196 or visit their new location at 150 Heatherdown Drive in Westerville.

erville resident said last week. The ceremony introducing the 20 newest members of the Ohio Veterans Hall of Fame, one of them posthumously, was scheduled to take place today (Thursday, Nov. 6) at the Lincoln Theatre on East Long Street in Columbus. “The Ohio Veterans Hall of Fame is not a military hall of fame,” according to the page devoted to it on the website of the Ohio Department of Veterans Services. “Those selected for the honor of induction are veterans who have honorably served their country through military service and who have continued to serve and inspire their fellow man with their deeds and accomplishments throughout their lifetime.” That David R. Cooper, 69, should wind up in the Ohio Veterans Hall of Fame would have appeared unlikely back when he was returning from a tour of duty with the U.S. Air Force in Vietnam. At that time, the native of a small town in Maine recalled, veterans of that controversial conflict weren’t treated very well back home, and he completely turned his back on his years in the service. It was not until 1985, when Cooper was invited to be a charter member of the new Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 7883, that he once again acknowledged the debt he owed to his service many years earlier. “The military is what gave me discipline,” he said. “I got to travel the world and to see how important this country is and how everything happens in this country for a reason, and we need to support one another.” Cooper was only 10 years old when his father died; he said it is from his mother and his dad that he learned the importance of becoming involved in a community. “My parents, my father, even though he passed away at 44, were very involved in the community,” Cooper said. “They volunteered to help people who needed help. “That’s how I was raised.” Cooper, whose supposed one-year as commander of

Ohio Veterans Hall of Fame inductee
the VFW post turned into 17, is still a member, but for the first time since it was chartered in 1985, he is not an officer. He is also deeply involved in the Northland community, where he owns the Ink Well on East Dublin-Granville Road. He is serving a second straight term as president of the Northland Area Business Association, is a member of the North Side Health Advisory Committee, is founder of the NABA State Route 161 Task Force and serves on the Northland Community Council development committee. Among other things. “One of my fellow VFW members who has known me for many, many years felt what I had done warranted some acknowledgment,” Cooper said. Alan Briggs, whose father was in the Ohio Veterans Hall of Fame, decided to nominate his fellow VFW member for induction, but tried to do it secretly with the help of Cooper’s wife, Chris. As the conspirators tried to compile a list of all of Cooper’s veteran and civic activities, they realized the task was too daunting. “Finally they said, ‘Look, we’re going to have to tell him,’ ”Cooper said. He cooperated, but with little expectation that anything would come of the nomination. “A lot of people told me you don’t get in on the first try, so I said OK,” Cooper recalled. “It’s quite an honor to be involved in this at all. To have been nominated and approved is very special.” kparks@thisweeknews.com

Westerville City School District finances
2012 levy stretching years longer than expected By ANDREW KING THISWEEKNEWS.COM
Westerville school officials believe the levy passed by voters in 2012 will sustain district operations through the 2018-19 school year – four years longer than promised when residents were asked to approve it. Thanks in large part to frugal spending with the district’s
2012 emergency levy funds, Treasurer Bart Griffith announced at the Westerville school board meeting Oct. 28, the district is in a position to maintain a cash balance through the 2019 fiscal year. The 2019 projection is four years longer than original estimates, and Griffith credited smart spending with the stretched funds. A district press
release also credited unanticipated increased funding from the state. “We are now on track to gain one additional year and stretch emergency levy dollars four years longer than anticipated, through fiscal year 2019,” Griffith said. “Any time a publicly funded institution is able to revise its ending cash balance upwards is good news
for taxpayers.” Griffith’s latest Five-Year Financial Forecast for the district projects an average of $5.28 million less spent each year, allowing the district to spread those levy funds further than anticipated. In those projections, Griffith said the district should end fiscal 2019 with a cash balance of $38.4 million. The board approved the creation of a reserve fund in 2013, and as of now, the district has $19 million in reserve, enough
to operate for more than a month in an emergency situation. “This reserve fund now ensures that we have at least 45 days of operating costs to address any unforeseen financial crises,” Griffith said. “It’s not only good fiscal stewardship, but it’s one more proactive measure that the board has taken to strengthen its financial position and lengthen the time between levy requests.” Despite the positive outlook, the board will soon need to
consider whether to renew the old levy, passed as a five-year issue in March 2012. The 6.71-mill levy passed with just 51 percent of the vote, and will no longer provide funding after 2017. While the district will be able to continue operating at its current rate through 2019 regardless of the levy, Griffith said that conversations about a potential renewal will need to take place sooner rather than later. aking@thisweeknews.com

“I resist once again the ongoing attempt to put apartments in an area like this,” committee Vice Chairman William Logan told Tangeman. She replied that her clients believe it is the right location for such a project, and that nearby apartments already in place are not only full but also have waiting lists of prospective tenants. Young professionals increasingly would rather rent than buy, she added. “This is probably one of the last multifamily sites in this area,” Tangeman said. “There’s not a whole lot of land left on Warner Road. I think this piece still makes sense.” Dee Grindley does not think it makes any sense at all. Appearing, as she did in 2012, on behalf of many others living in the vicinity of 5800 Ulry Road, Grindley said she and 500 others who signed a petition don’t want to see anything happen on the site without proper environmental stud-
ies. “Once again, we’ve got the cart before the horse,” she said. “We’re not going to have someone come in and dump on us. We’re going to protect this area.” Although no vote was requested or taken, NCC Development Committee Chairman Dave Paul said it appeared to him that a majority of committee members would have a hard time supporting the apartment aspects of the potential rezoning application. “If the multifamily component had not been there, if it had all been condominiums, the gut feeling of those in the room was they probably would have been in support,” Paul said. The proposal is a vast improvement over the one from 2012, he added. “Folks were willing to agree that they’re moving in the right direction,” he said.

The selling price for the condos would start at $220,000, Smith said. The condo portion of the project and the assisted living idea drew no criticism, but the multifamily section brought some objections.

Central again to face Solon By FRANK DiRENNA THISWEEKSPORTS.COM
Glenn Smith of North races past South defenders John Edwards (21) and Shuron Howard during the visiting Warriors’ 28-21 loss Oct. 31. The Warriors ended the season at 2-8 and the Wildcats finished 6-4, falling short of the playoffs. JOHN HULKENBERG/THISWEEKSPORTS

Wildcats beat Warriors in finale By DAVE PURPURA THISWEEKSPORTS.COM
A third-quarter surge carried the Westerville South High School football team to a 28-21 victory over visiting Westerville North on Oct. 31 in the regular-season finale. The win didn’t carry the Wildcats any further. Devan Wade rushed for 82 yards and two second-half touchdowns on 13 carries to lead South, which trailed 14-7 just 15 seconds into the second half but roared back with 21 unanswered points. The Wildcats (6-4 overall, 4-3 OCCCardinal Division) were 16th in Divi-
sion I, Region 2 before playing North (2-8, 1-6), but they dropped to 17th after the game and were eliminated from the playoffs. The top 16 teams in the region qualified. “We did our part,” South coach Tim Bates said after the game as several assistant coaches checked scores that might impact the Wildcats’ playoff standing. “Everybody’s calling around to see how everything shakes out, but first, we had to win.” The Wildcats overcame 15 penalties to record their eighth consecutive win against the Warriors. North took a 14-7 lead on its first play of the second half, when running
back Jake Hinz threw a 66-yard touchdown pass to Glenn Smith. South answered two plays later, when Lincoln Flood connected with Abu Daramy for an 87-yard score. South converted three third downs on the go-ahead drive, which Wade capped with a 23-yard touchdown run on which he broke at least five tackles to make it 21-14. “I just base my game on speed and elusiveness,” said Wade, who scored again from 7 yards on the second play of the fourth quarter. “A lot of people might think that because of my size (5foot-10, 175 pounds) I can’t be a power runner, but I think I can do it all.”
North did not go away, converting two fourth downs on its final possession. Jake Downs threw a 27-yard touchdown pass to Colin Fugger to make it 28-21, but South recovered the onside kick. “We had a chance and we played tough,” Warriors coach Rodger Elander said. Downs had a 16-yard touchdown run to open the scoring in the first quarter, and the Wildcats answered with a nine-play, 73-yard drive culminating in Flood’s 29-yard touchdown pass to Jaelen Gill. dpurpura@thisweeknews.com
The Westerville Central High School football team opened the Division I, Region 1 playoffs a year ago by defeating Solon 55-7 at home. The teams will meet again in the first round Saturday, Nov. 8, at Central. However, Warhawks coach John Magistro isn’t anticipating another blowout. “Everybody is different,” he said. “We have a new team. They have a new team. They’re better than last year’s team. They have good speed. Their team reminds you of (Westerville) South a little bit. They have a couple guys who are game-breakers.” The Warhawks are 9-1 overall and seeded third in the region. Their loss, 35-10 at Hilliard Darby on Oct. 24, helped give the Panthers the OCC-Cardinal Division title at 7-0 as the Warhawks placed second at 6-1. Central is competing in its third postseason, with the first appearance coming in 2011 when it lost to Gahanna 3821 in the first round. Last season, Central lost to Austintown Fitch 40-24 in the second round. “Our goal is to be in playoffs,” said Magistro, who is in his sixth season. “It took us a couple years and we finally achieved it.” Solon is seeded 14th and is 6-4 overall. “We surely didn’t represent ourselves or northeast Ohio

ThisWeek’s 2014 Super 12 Girls Soccer Team The Captain
Ranalli’s attitude is key for Liberty By DAVE PURPURA THISWEEKSPORTS.COM
Holding back tears after her team’s season ended, Emma Ranalli of the Olentangy Liberty High School girls soccer team nevertheless cracked a smile when asked to reflect on the Patriots’ season. The Patriots went 17-2-1 overall and 70 in the OCC-Central Division, were the top-ranked team in the state during the second half of the regular season and won their first district title. Ranalli, a senior midfielder, was a key factor in Liberty allowing only four goals all season and was named captain of ThisWeek’s Super 12 team. Ranalli, a four-year Emma Ranalli starter and three-year captain, downplayed her talents and contributions even as they were widely acknowledged by her peers and area coaches. She was both league and district Player of the Year. “We just came together as one,� said Ranalli, whose team lost its regional semifinal to Olentangy 1-0 on Oct. 28. “It wasn’t three or four people on the back line and then our goalie (Miranda Kuhns). We worked as a unit. It was so important. We worked together and that kept us so strong.� Katie Best and Emma Waters also helped anchor Liberty’s defense, as the Patriots recorded 16 shutouts. Coach Lisa Saiben called Ranalli “the backbone of our team.� Despite playing a defensive-oriented position, Ranalli still had six goals and a team-best nine assists. “Emma is the most complete player I have ever coached,� Saiben said. “Every time she touched the ball, she made something positive happen and had the greatest impact on every game she played. This year, she covered an immense amount of space defensively in the middle of the field. She directed her teammates effectively and respectfully, and distributed the ball with impressive vision and accuracy.� Ranalli has committed to play for Tufts University, a Division III school in Medford, Mass., a suburb of Boston. “I love the school and Boston’s a great city,� she said. “I’m looking forward to playing at the next level.� dpurpura@thisweeknews.com
NIKKI COX After Granville lost 12 players to graduation from last year’s Division II state runner-up team, Cox moved from forward to midfielder. The Blue Aces were 12-5-4 before playing Cincinnati McNicholas in a state semifinal Nov. 4, with Cox leading the way with 34 goals and 19 assists. The junior, who was the district Player of the Year, was Super 12 honorable mention as a freshman when she had 29 goals and 12 assists, and she made the first team last year when she had 50 goals and 15 assists. “She has had to be more of the overall playmaker with both setting up and scoring goals,� coach Scott Forster said.
ADRIANA JOHNSON The senior defender played a major role in helping Hilliard Bradley finish 125-1, with nine victories by shutout. She was first-team all-district in Division I and the OCC-Cardinal Player of the Year as the Jaguars tied Dublin Jerome for the league title.The Jaguars went 6-1 in the league, allowing only four goals in league play and 14 on the season. Johnson scored the winning goal in a 2-1 win at Hilliard Darby on Oct. 7. “We moved Adriana from the center midfield to a part of the field where she was less comfortable and she did a great job of leading our defense,� coach Cheri Shields said.
DEVON JONES A Super 12 honorable mention selection last year, this senior forward was Division III district Player of the Year. Jones scored two goals as Worthington Christian beat Grandview 3-0 on Oct. 25 for its first district championship. She also scored a goal in a 3-2 loss to defending state champion Hamilton Badin on Oct. 28 in a regional semifinal as the Warriors finished 15-3-2. Jones, who had 38 goals this season and 109 in her career, will play for Liberty University. “She works hard and she’s very humble about it,� coach Shari Welsh said. “She’s fast and is good in the air. This year she also (reached double figures in assists).�
HANNAH LEHMKUHL The junior midfielder was among the leaders for Dublin Coffman, which captured its fifth Division I district championship in the last six seasons. Lehmkuhl had 10 goals and 15 assists through 20 games for the Shamrocks,who were 14-1-6 after defeating Olentangy 2-0 in a regional final Nov. 1, and was first-team all-district and all-OCC-Central. “We lost a substantial amount of talent from last year,� coach Marc D’Auteuil said. “Hannah was the one proven entity that we had coming back and she hasn’t disappointed. She sat out a couple games this year because of injury and we were pretty lost. She does a lot of different things well.�
PAYTON NAYLOR Naylor, a senior forward, led Olentangy in goals (14) and assists through 20 games as it won the program’s first district championship and its first league title since 1999. Naylor, who has committed to play at Northern Kentucky, was a first-team all-district and the OCCCapital Division Player of the Year. She scored in a 1-0 win over Olentangy Liberty in a Division I regional semifinal Oct. 28, and Olentangy finished 13-5-3 overall after losing to Dublin Coffman 2-0 in a regional final Nov. 1. “We have so much leadership out of this senior class, and Payton is a big part of that,� coach Megan Kirsten said.
HALEY REES Rees, a junior forward, had a programrecord 36 goals this season for Grandview, which finished 16-1-2 with a 3-0 loss to Worthington Christian in a Division III district final Oct. 25. The Bobcats’ previous season record for goals was 23 by 2010 graduate Hilary Ells.
Rees was first team all-district and all-league. Grandview tied Worthington Christian for the MSL-Ohio title at 4-0-1. “The biggest difference was (Rees’) mental approach,� coach Mike Merna said. “She was much more focused in training and in games, and developed her left foot so she can go either way. She is quick, but surprisingly strong.�

ThisWeek’s 2014 Super 12 Girls Soccer Team The Captain
Ranalli’s attitude is key for Liberty By DAVE PURPURA THISWEEKSPORTS.COM
Holding back tears after her team’s season ended, Emma Ranalli of the Olentangy Liberty High School girls soccer team nevertheless cracked a smile when asked to reflect on the Patriots’ season. The Patriots went 17-2-1 overall and 70 in the OCC-Central Division, were the top-ranked team in the state during the second half of the regular season and won their first district title. Ranalli, a senior midfielder, was a key factor in Liberty allowing only four goals all season and was named captain of ThisWeek’s Super 12 team. Ranalli, a four-year Emma Ranalli starter and three-year captain, downplayed her talents and contributions even as they were widely acknowledged by her peers and area coaches. She was both league and district Player of the Year. “We just came together as one,� said Ranalli, whose team lost its regional semifinal to Olentangy 1-0 on Oct. 28. “It wasn’t three or four people on the back line and then our goalie (Miranda Kuhns). We worked as a unit. It was so important. We worked together and that kept us so strong.� Katie Best and Emma Waters also helped anchor Liberty’s defense, as the Patriots recorded 16 shutouts. Coach Lisa Saiben called Ranalli “the backbone of our team.� Despite playing a defensive-oriented position, Ranalli still had six goals and a team-best nine assists. “Emma is the most complete player I have ever coached,� Saiben said. “Every time she touched the ball, she made something positive happen and had the greatest impact on every game she played. This year, she covered an immense amount of space defensively in the middle of the field. She directed her teammates effectively and respectfully, and distributed the ball with impressive vision and accuracy.� Ranalli has committed to play for Tufts University, a Division III school in Medford, Mass., a suburb of Boston. “I love the school and Boston’s a great city,� she said. “I’m looking forward to playing at the next level.� dpurpura@thisweeknews.com
NIKKI COX After Granville lost 12 players to graduation from last year’s Division II state runner-up team, Cox moved from forward to midfielder. The Blue Aces were 12-5-4 before playing Cincinnati McNicholas in a state semifinal Nov. 4, with Cox leading the way with 34 goals and 19 assists. The junior, who was the district Player of the Year, was Super 12 honorable mention as a freshman when she had 29 goals and 12 assists, and she made the first team last year when she had 50 goals and 15 assists. “She has had to be more of the overall playmaker with both setting up and scoring goals,� coach Scott Forster said.
ADRIANA JOHNSON The senior defender played a major role in helping Hilliard Bradley finish 125-1, with nine victories by shutout. She was first-team all-district in Division I and the OCC-Cardinal Player of the Year as the Jaguars tied Dublin Jerome for the league title.The Jaguars went 6-1 in the league, allowing only four goals in league play and 14 on the season. Johnson scored the winning goal in a 2-1 win at Hilliard Darby on Oct. 7. “We moved Adriana from the center midfield to a part of the field where she was less comfortable and she did a great job of leading our defense,� coach Cheri Shields said.
DEVON JONES A Super 12 honorable mention selection last year, this senior forward was Division III district Player of the Year. Jones scored two goals as Worthington Christian beat Grandview 3-0 on Oct. 25 for its first district championship. She also scored a goal in a 3-2 loss to defending state champion Hamilton Badin on Oct. 28 in a regional semifinal as the Warriors finished 15-3-2. Jones, who had 38 goals this season and 109 in her career, will play for Liberty University. “She works hard and she’s very humble about it,� coach Shari Welsh said. “She’s fast and is good in the air. This year she also (reached double figures in assists).�
HANNAH LEHMKUHL The junior midfielder was among the leaders for Dublin Coffman, which captured its fifth Division I district championship in the last six seasons. Lehmkuhl had 10 goals and 15 assists through 20 games for the Shamrocks,who were 14-1-6 after defeating Olentangy 2-0 in a regional final Nov. 1, and was first-team all-district and all-OCC-Central. “We lost a substantial amount of talent from last year,� coach Marc D’Auteuil said. “Hannah was the one proven entity that we had coming back and she hasn’t disappointed. She sat out a couple games this year because of injury and we were pretty lost. She does a lot of different things well.�
PAYTON NAYLOR Naylor, a senior forward, led Olentangy in goals (14) and assists through 20 games as it won the program’s first district championship and its first league title since 1999. Naylor, who has committed to play at Northern Kentucky, was a first-team all-district and the OCCCapital Division Player of the Year. She scored in a 1-0 win over Olentangy Liberty in a Division I regional semifinal Oct. 28, and Olentangy finished 13-5-3 overall after losing to Dublin Coffman 2-0 in a regional final Nov. 1. “We have so much leadership out of this senior class, and Payton is a big part of that,� coach Megan Kirsten said.
HALEY REES Rees, a junior forward, had a programrecord 36 goals this season for Grandview, which finished 16-1-2 with a 3-0 loss to Worthington Christian in a Division III district final Oct. 25. The Bobcats’ previous season record for goals was 23 by 2010 graduate Hilary Ells.
Rees was first team all-district and all-league. Grandview tied Worthington Christian for the MSL-Ohio title at 4-0-1. “The biggest difference was (Rees’) mental approach,� coach Mike Merna said. “She was much more focused in training and in games, and developed her left foot so she can go either way. She is quick, but surprisingly strong.�

Cross Country
North’s Sandvik twins battle elements at state By DAVE PURPURA THISWEEKSPORTS.COM
Many runners and spectators were shivering during the Division I state cross country meet Nov. 1 at National Trail Raceway, as cloudy skies and persistent breezes dropped the wind chill into the mid-30s. Haley Sandvik of the Westerville North High School girls team was not in that camp. A steady performance in her third state meet earned Sandvik, a senior, a 39th-place finish in 19 minutes, 7.56 seconds, and her first career win over her twin, Heather. Heather Sandvik, who was competing in her fourth state meet, was 50th in 19:11.18. “When it’s cold, it numbs me. I don’t hurt as bad when I run,” Haley Sandvik said, eliciting a smile from Heather. “I was more nervous for regional, actually, than for state, because once you get to state there’s no pressure to do anything, whereas at regional there’s pressure to get here.” The Sandviks competed as individuals in the 151-competitor race. Centerville’s Lainey Studebaker won in 18:09.43, leading the Elks to the team championship (52 points) ahead of runner-up Mason (92) as 16 teams competed. Haley Sandvik was 91st at state as a sophomore and 75th as a junior. Heather Sandvik, who was 63rd at state as a freshman, 20th as a sophomore and 16th as a junior, said she couldn’t catch up to the pack that was in her sights. “I started off really fast,” she said. “I saw all the girls from central Ohio in the front, basically where I wanted to
ahead of Westerville South (232). At district, North was eighth (203) of 17 teams behind champion Olentangy Liberty (46). Heather Sandvik was fourth (18:49.46) and Haley Sandvik was seventh (19:00.37) as the top six teams and top 24 individuals advanced to regional Oct. 25 at Pickerington North. At regional, Heather Sandvik was ninth (19:23.64) and Haley Sandvik was 15th (19:34.07) as the top 16 individuals qualified for state. Expected returnees for coach Johnny Jackson include junior Megan Mobley and sophomore Claire Wetta.

After my surgery I was back to work on Monday! I had no pain with my healing teeth. I went from an upper denture and a few lower working teeth, to new implant teeth. I never realized what a thorn my teeth and old dentures were or how negatively they affected me. It’s amazing how much better I feel after replacing my infected teeth with implants. I sleep better and my appetite is up. I’m much happier in general. My new teeth have made a big impact on my life.” Gary P., Columbus, Ohio

Boys Soccer
Wildcats ousted again by Canal Winchester By FRANK DiRENNA THISWEEKSPORTS.COM
Led by senior forward Luke Morais, the Westerville South High School boys soccer team enjoyed another successful season, making it back to a Division I district final. However, just like last season, the Wildcats’ postseason run ended against Canal Winchester. South fell to the second-seeded Indians 2-0 on Oct. 25 at Olentangy to finish 13-5-1 overall. Last year, the Wildcats lost to Canal Winchester 3-1 in a district final. The Indians seem to have the Wildcats’ number, also beating South 3-0 on Aug. 26 in OCC-Cardinal Division play. South finished fourth (4-2-1) in the league, behind Canal Winchester (5-0-2), Westerville Central (5-2) and Dublin Jerome (4-1-2) and ahead of Westerville North (2-4-1), Hilliard Darby (2-4-1), Hilliard Bradley (1-5-1) and Dublin Scioto (0-5-2). “I’m happy because our program is back,” coach Aaron Linden said. “I just wanted to do this for the seniors because they came to the team when I did and they mean a lot to me. It’s been a great year and we’ll be back again next year.” Morais was named first-team alldistrict and all-league. He finished with 21 goals and 17 assists. Junior midfielder Brennan Lawrence also was named first-team all-league. Also receiving all-league honors were junior defender Massillon Meyers (second team), junior midfielder Luke Houston (special mention) and sophomore midfielder Isaac Bumgarner (honorable mention). Junior forward Emmanuel Sabbi, a transfer from Gahanna Christian, also was a key contributor during the team’s run to a district final. After a first-round bye in the tour-

or our conference very well last season,” said Solon coach Jim McQuaide, who is in his 12th season. “A huge part of that was due to how good Westerville Central was, but that was not a very proud moment for us last year.” After beginning the season 5-0, the Comets have lost four of their last five games and finished 2-3 in the Northeast Ohio League-Valley Division. They are making their 19th postseason appearance. The winner plays sixthseeded Austintown Fitch or 11th-seeded Wadsworth in the second round Nov. 15 at a site to be announced. Solon, which features a spread offense and 4-3 base defense, is averaging 23.4 points per game and allowing 18.9.

Central reached its third consecutive district final, losing to topseeded Olentangy Liberty 1-0 on Oct. 25 at Gahanna. The seventh-seeded Warhawks finished 13-6-1 overall. The 13 wins was a program record, with the previous high of 12 coming in 2010, 2006 and 2005. Coach Dave Pence said his team used 13 starting lineups in its 16 regular-season games because of injuries. “The credit goes to this group of kids,” Pence said. “We moved people all over the place and had different people starting. They started out the season 1-3-1. At that point, we all challenged each other to improve, and to set a record for wins in a season just goes to show you the character and dedication of a lot of these young men. I was so impressed with what we were able to put together after such a dismal start.” Central opened the district tournament with an 8-0 win over 40thseeded Marion Harding on Oct. 14 and followed with a 6-0 win over 41st-seeded Mifflin on Oct. 18, both at home.

The City of Westerville, the Delaware County Engineer’s Office, and the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) will host an open house public involvement meeting to share the recommended alternative to improve congestion and safety along the Sunbury Road corridor between County Line Road/Smothers Road and Maxtown Road. The recommended improvements include construction of a two-way left turn lane, a second northbound lane, turn lane additions at the County Line Road/Smothers Road intersection, recreational path, and sidewalk. The public is invited to view exhibits of the roadway design and property impacts and ask questions relevant to the project of the project team. The recommended alternative includes construction of a new recreational pathway within the Hoover Reservoir recreational area, which is owned by the City of Columbus. The use of Federal Funds subjects the proposed project to the requirements of Section 4(f) of the Department of Transportation Act of 1966. This federal law protects publicly owned parks, recreation areas, wildlife refuges, and historic sites. Because the recommended alternative will not substantially impair the primary functions and components of the recreational area, the project is anticipated to have a de minimis impact to the Hoover Reservoir recreational area. All interested parties are asked to attend and comment on the proposed project. Your input is valuable. The open house will be held: Thursday, November 13, 2014 Westerville North High School Media Center 950 County Line Road, Westerville, Ohio 43081 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM Comments may be submitted at the meeting or mailed to: Jeff Kessler, City of Westerville Project Manager 64 E. Walnut Street, Westerville, Ohio 43081 All comments must be received by December 4, 2014.
