Pedestrian killed in downtown accident By TOM THELEN tthelen@lsj.com

PORTLAND — One person was killed in a car/pedestrian accident in downtown Portland last week. The accident took place at about 10:12 a.m. on Aug. 4, according to a release issued by the Portland Police Department. The officers and Portland Ambulance Department were called to the intersection of Kent Street and Grand River Avenue on a report of two pedestrians being struck by a pickup truck. Emergency responders arrived and found one of the victims, Judy Fedewa, 64, of Portland, to be critically injured and suffering from severe head injuries. She was transported to Sparrow Hospital in Lansing, where she later died from her injuries.

YES!

A second pedestrian suffered apparent minor injuries and sought her own treatment. An investigation by the Portland Police Department determined that the pedestrians were crossing Grand River Avenue from the north side of the street when they were struck by a pickup truck that was making a left turn from Kent Street onto westbound Grand River Avenue. Portland Police Chief Bob Bauer stated that based on the initial investigation the truck was moving at a slow speed through the intersection, which is controlled by a traffic light. Bauer added the driver of the truck is cooperating with the investigation. Portland police officers were assisted by members of the Ionia County Sheriff Department in the investigation.

PORTLAND — Area residents narrowed the list of candidates for the November general election during the primary election last week. Over 1.6 million voters statewide cast ballots Aug. 3 to select the Republican

A total of 8,611 registered voters in Ionia County participated for a turnout of 20.9 percent of all registered voters. In Clinton County, 14,356 ballots were cast for a voter turnout of 26.76 per-

of St. Johns. Calley was the overall winner, thanks in part of a 4-to-1 margin in Ionia County. Calley received 5,353 votes in Ionia County while Trebesh received 1,703. Trebesh carried his home area of Clinton County, but by a narrower margin. TrebeSee Election/page 5

Bids for trail project lower than expected tthelen@lsj.com

PORTLAND — The Portland City Council received some good news regarding pricing for city projects during its Aug. 2 meeting The council received the bids for the completion of the Portland Rivertrail between Charlotte Highway and Okemos Road. Seven bids were submitted, all of which were well under the engineer’s estimated cost of $327,168. The council voted to follow the engineer’s recommendation and award the project to Cook Brothers Excavating of Portland at a cost of $180,826.70, which was approximately $146,341 below the estimate. City manager Tom Dempsey said that the Cook Brothers bid was not the lowest, but there were some concerns with the lowest bid. “We the engineers went back and looked at the bid submitted, some of the quantities and quotes were not correct,” said Dempsey. “It still would not have changed the outcome. Cook Brothers has performed well in similar projects and has experience working on MDOT projects like this. The other firm only had a few employees and we did not believe that the project could be completed in the time frame that we had set.” Dempsey said the project could begin as soon as the Michigan Department of Natural Resources and Environment, which is providing grant funds for the project, approves the bid. “We hope to have everything in place and be able to start this project sometime next week,” said Dempsey.

Divine Highway

asphalt from a supplier. “The road commission gets the quotes and allow us to piggy-back on that quote,” said Dempsey. “The quote that they have received is $49 per ton. We have not seen price quotes like that ever. Right now we are paying $57 per ton for the Grape Street project.” Dempsey said the price quote could allow the city to do a crush and reshape repair on Divine Highway for less than $160,000. “The engineer said the crown on the road would be reshaped and two layers of asphalt would be put down and that would give us a long-term repair,” said Dempsey. “We do have the money and ability to take advantage of this pricing because of your foresight in the way that you financed the Grape Street project.” A formal proposal could be brought before the council at its next meeting on Aug. 16

Grape Street Council members approved a change order for the Grape Street project that increases the cost of the project by $5,170. Dempsey told the council that the change order was due to adding the installation of a fence on top of the boulder wall over the creek as well as a change to a water service line. “When we set the contract, we based it on having all water lines being the standard three-quarters of an inch residential line,” said Dempsey. “However, we found one line that was a one-inch service line. So the total price is increasing to account for that.” Dempsey added that the price will drop near the completion of the project to account for the standard line that will not be used. Meanwhile, the council also approved a pay request to CL Trucking in the amount of $246,941.37 for work completed on the project. “Overall, the project See Council/page13

Main Street volunteers honored PORTLAND — On Thursday, July 29, the Portland Main Street program honored its volunteers with a “Volunteer Recognition” event at the community bandshell in Two Rivers Park. “A Main Street program is only as strong as its volunteer base, and we have a very good group of volunteers and a great Main Street program,” said Main Street Manager Patrick Reagan. “The work that these folks put in each year - from producing our newsletter each month to hosting events like Portland Pay Day or the Downtown Block Party - is phenomenal. All of the great events and programs that take place in downtown Portland are thanks to the hard work of these community volunteers.” The Portland Main Street program individually recognized some program volunteers for their outstanding work over the past year. Nicole Sunstrum, the chairperson of the Promotions and Marketing Com-

mittee, was given the Horizon Award as the best new volunteer over the past year. Bernie Pelc was honored as the Economic Revitalization Committee’s volunteer of the year. City Manager Tom Dempsey was chosen as the Design Committee’s volunteer of the year, while Paige Patterson won the award for the Organization and Finance Committee. Cathy McCann, co-owner of Around the Block Quilt Shop, was named the Promotions and Marketing Committee’s volunteer of the year, and Wanda Urie, owner of Distinctive Occasions, was named the Portland Main Street Volunteer of the Year. Julie Clement, co-owner of Raffaeles’ Marketplace, was given the Manager’s Award for her commitment and service to downtown Portland. Jamie Schriner-Hooper, the organization specialist for the Michigan Main Street Center, gave a keynote speech

on the importance of volunteers in the downtown and throughout the community. “Everything that these people give to their community - their time, efforts, and talents - is a testament to the civic pride and spirit that exists in Portland. We simply cannot thank these people enough for their service,” said Reagan. The goal of the Portland Main Street program is to actively revitalize Portland’s vibrant, charming, and unique downtown into a gathering place-one that uses broad-based community support to (1) provide opportunities to entrepreneurs; (2) sustain a strong economic foundation for the region; and (3) safeguard history, tradition, and a sense of community for residents and visitors.

This seminar will help business owners navigate both of these process correctly, which will allow them to protect their business, their reputations, and their profits.” Diane Smith, Economic Revitalization Chairperson, believes that this seminar will help small business owners attract and hire the right person for the job. “It’s important for business owners to hire people who fit the business the best,”

It unites participants with others who have shared a similar experience, allowing them to find hope and healing. Teams of co-workers, colleagues, family and more camp out overnight and take turns walking laps around a track. Participants celebrate the victory of local cancer survivors during the special Survivors Lap. At dusk, they have a chance to remember loved ones lost to the disease during the poignant Luminaria Ceremony. Different activities will be

Red Cross encourages residents to donate blood LANSING — As summer comes to a close, American Red Cross officials encourage all eligible donors to make an appointment before summer’s end. Blood donation helps treat patients in your community, across the state and the country. “Blood donors can play an important role in the treatment of sickle cell disease, leukemia and other forms of cancer,” said Sharon Jaksa, CEO for the Great Lakes Region of the American Red Cross. “You can make such a difference to someone very sick through the simple act of rolling up your sleeve.” The Red Cross needs to collect about 700 units of blood everyday to ensure patients throughout the Great Lakes Region get the blood products they need. While the need for blood doesn’t go away during the summer, blood donors sometime do. Make an appointment to donate blood before the summer slips away.

EAST LANSING — A pair of Michigan State University agricultural economists will present “Small Wind: Will it Work for You?” at locations throughout the state Aug. 24 through Sept. 9. Drs. Steve Harsh and Lynn Hamilton, professor and visiting associate professor, respectively, in MSU’s Department of Agricultural, Food, and Resource Economics, are working with MSU Extension educators in seven counties to talk to residents about using small wind turbines to power a farm, home or business. Recent state and federal laws have made wind energy a much better investment than in the past, Hamilton said. “One of our goals, through these workshops, is to go over those policy
