Volusia ranked second in coyote attacks Volusia County is the second county in Florida with the most reported coyote attacks during the pandemic.

According to a study by Veterinarians.org, data analyzed from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission found that, of the 419 coyote incidents reported in Florida from January 2020 to December 2021, 36 happened in Volusia County. Orange County ranked first with 62 reported attacks.

Prior to the pandemic, in 2018 and 2019, incidents of a serious nature totaled 91. In 2020 and 2021, there were over 300 serious coyote-related incidents.

These were defined as involving an injured animal, injured human, threatened animal, threatened human, killed animal, or missing pet suspected to have been taken by a coyote.

Neighborhood meeting planned for apartments

Courtesy of the city of Ormond Beach

A rendering showing what the apartments proposed for 215 Williamson Blvd. may look like.

The property at 215 Williamson Blvd. once housed a movie theater. Now, there are plans in the works for a new apartment building.

The Ormond Beach Planning Board will review a Planned Business Development amendment request on Thursday, June 9, by local developer Paul Holub to allow the demolition of the existing 39,368-squarefoot movie theater building in order to construct a 312-unit apartment complex.

The complex is proposed to consist of two four-story buildings and one two-story building on the property’s 12 acres. Per city documents, two access points for the apartment

complex are proposed, both on Williamson Boulevard. The secondary access point would be connected to Discount Tire Shop at 175 Williamson Blvd.

The project is one of seven items planned to be heard by the board at its next meeting. The board will also consider a zoning map amendment and development order request for a new car wash at 55 N. Nova Road.

The building on the property used to be a church.

The property owners, Port Orange Investors LLC, seek to demolish the church building and to construct a full-service car wash.

Also on the agenda is another

future land use map amendment concerning the RidgeHaven residential project, an administrative land development code amendment to update parking calculations for warehouses, and two items related to the Ormond Memorial Art Museum and Gardens.

The museum seeks a special exception regarding wall signage as well as a special exception to allow live outdoor music as part of scheduled events.

The Planning Board meeting will begin at 6 p.m. at the City Commission Chambers located at 22 S. Beach St.

A neighborhood meeting for the proposed Tymber Creek Apartments project at 36 Tymber Creek Road and a portion of 2011 W. Granada Blvd. will be held at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, June 8, at the Coquina Presbyterian Church at 2085 W. Granada Blvd.

The property owner seeks to construct a 300unit apartment complex consisting of 10 apartment buildings.

This is not a new proposal; the project was first proposed in 2020. A neighborhood meeting had been scheduled in August 2020 but was postponed to allow more public participation, since the pandemic impacted such meetings at the time.

We remember Annual Ormond Beach Memorial Day Remembrance Service pays tribute to fallen veterans

JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

Former Florida Rep. Fred Costello pushed the podium forward before beginning his speech on Monday, May 30, at Rockefeller Gardens, standing beneath the covered amphitheater that has borne his name since 2019. He looked out over the crowd that had gathered on the lawn for the city’s annual Memorial Day Remembrance Service.

“Glory, glory, hallelujah,” he said, and said how honored he felt to be there.

Costello, a former Ormond Beach mayor and retired dentist, served as a captain in the U.S. Air Force from 1974 to 1977. A member of the Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 1048 and the American Legion, he centered his speech around the sacrifice those serving in the armed forces have given, and are prepared to give.

“All veterans wrote a blank check to defend our American heritage of self-government to protect the enduring calling of individual liberty and freedom, so the USA can continue to be the beacon of freedom and individual opportunity throughout the world,” Costello said. “America is more than a country. It is a dream that lives within each one of us.”

Memorial Day is a time to remember and honor the veterans who died during service, he continued. It is not a celebration, but a time for personal reflection.

He invited two local veterans to speak during the service as well: Vietnam veterans Jim Drake and Bob Adkins.

Drake served in Vietnam from 1968-1969. He’s one of the lucky ones who came back, he said. His best friend, Donald E. “Rusty” Sizemore did not. The two had gone to the same high school. Drake joined the Navy; Sizemore wanted to be a Marine.

“I honor him every Memorial Day and every Veterans Day,” Drake said.

“He’s buried in Holly Hill at the Oak Crest Cemetery.”

Adkins said that for him, every day is Memorial Day. “We should never ever let our fallen be forgotten,” said Adkins, who is the president of the Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 1048. “Every day, they should be remembered.

That is what this day is about.”

national cemeteries across the country — Adkins asked for help from the community to continue to give veterans a proper military burial. The last call to honor he and and a small group of individuals completed saw the burial of 24 veterans and veterans wives. Adkins paid for it all.

funerals homes, of veterans, veterans’ wives — that are waiting for someone like me to come and get them and bury them in a national cemetery,” Adkins said. “That’s my project for the rest of my life, and I need help.”

The ceremony also featured the Daytona Beach Concert Band, the laying of the ceremonial wreaths and tolling of the eight bells, which honors a sailor’s end of watch.

Memorial Day is a difficult day for many, Costello said.

“There are those who mourn family members, whose selfless service led them to be laid in ground hallowed by the blood that they spilled,” Costello said. “There is the living warrior who sheds tears that are seen and unseen for the brother or sister

For these and many more, Memorial Day carries with it a weight that few can comprehend.”

Struggling with health or housing? You’re not alone. New deal on health plan EXECUTIVE EDITOR

Flagler County and Volusia County agencies, including the AdventHealth and Halifax Health hospital systems, recently completed a survey to assess the community’s health needs, according to Flagler Cares CEO Carrie Baird. Results are still be analyzed and released at a future date, but Baird discussed the community’s challenges Friday, May 13, on WNZF’s “Free For All Friday,” alongside Florida Department of Health-Flagler Officer Robert Snyder, and DOH-Flagler Medical Director Steve Bickel.

The three priorities identified in the survey were 1) access to behavioral health services, which includes mental health, suicide prevention and substance abuse programs; 2) economic and social barriers, including help for housing and child care; and 3) system infrastructure, including the ability to communicate what resources are available in the two-county community.

“Every day, we get calls to our office about people who are still falling behind in paying their rent or utilities, and a lot of the COVIDfunded resources … have gone away,” Baird said. “There is a state program (but) you had to have access to the internet and you had to figure out how to apply. … People don’t know where to go; they just they call everywhere asking, ‘Who can help me pay my rent this month?’

“Unfortunately, there isn’t one simple place,” she continued. Some organizations or programs are funded, but only for a limited time.

“That’s why Flagler Cares has created our one-stop where you can call us and we will figure out the resources, trying to be that middleman between people in need and the services that we know exist.”

Flagler Cares’ Carrie Baird said, in 2017: “In our country there are a lot of resources for the very, very, very poor, but the working poor are often not eligible for these resources, and they, with a little help, could make it.”

Some people don’t know how to define the help they need.

“Mental health issues, or substance use disorder issues are often tangled together,” Baird said, “It’s really anyone who doesn’t feel OK. … We can screen people and find out what challenges they want to tackle first.”

Flagler Cares’ four navigators, which are full-time employees who give one-on-one attention to anyone who calls for help, take on about 100 new clients in a month.

Snyder said Flagler County has the eighth highest per capita death rate related to overdoses in Florida. “We need to do something about that,” he said, and the health department will be getting a grant to provide resources.

LINC FLAGLER VOLUSIA

Another initiative launched by Flagler Cares is LINC, which stands for Linking Individuals to Networks of Care.

WHAT IS FLAGLER CARES? With four full-time “navigators,” Flagler Cares is helping people one-on-one in the community.

If you are struggling with health or housing and would like some individualized help to navigate social service options, call 386319-9483, walk into the Flagler County Village at 160 Cypress Point Parkway, Building B, or visit flaglercares.org.

“Flagler Cares started in 2015 with the goal of bringing together all of the parts of our system of care that protect the most vulnerable of our residents,” CEO Carrie Baird said.

“And we’ve grown over time to expand that safety net, identify issues in our system and figure out a solution to those using our staff resources to make a difference and ensure that people have access to behavioral health care — like health insurance or food stamps or housing — to make sure that they can be healthy and stable.”

ty. That’s in part because there is a shortage around the country.

However, Snyder offered hope.

SOLUTION: TELEHEALTH

“There’s a solution to this,” he said.

“It’s called telehealth.”

Baird said Flagler Cares has contracted with telehealth providers, and if someone doesn’t have internet access, the patient can go to the Flagler Cares office and will be provided a computer to use for a telehealth appointment.

“And then, if they have a prescription based on that appointment, we can also help them with our new pharmacy program,” Baird said. “So we’re trying to chip away at all of the barriers so that people can come to our office and access services outside our community.”

Young children don’t respond as well to telehealth, “but teenagers love it,” Baird said.

The pandemic forced a lot of meetings to go virtual, and that has proven to be an efficient solution for mental health appointments.

“Your typical medication management appointment with a psychiatrist is 15 minutes,” Baird said. If the appointment is in person, “you’re driving 45 minutes for a 15-minute appointment.”

Snyder said the health department, located in Bunnell, plans to have a presence at Flagler County Village, in City Marketplace, in the future, considering 92% of the health department’s clients live in Palm Coast.

SOCIAL VENTURE CAPITAL?

Another announcement coming soon, in July, is a project that will provide even more resources for coordinating care in the community.

The health department’s medical director, Dr. Stephen Bickel, called it a “social venture capital initiative, where we’re going to use some of the venture capital principals to help organizations grow to deliver services that aren’t here now.

Flagler Schools employees’ co-pays for office visits, urgent care and generic drugs will decrease.

BRENT WORONOFF STAFF WRITER

The Flagler County School Board agreed to lower co-payments on its employee health insurance plans for the 2022 to 2023 school year.

At a May 25 special meeting, the board also agreed to decrease deductibles for its HSA plan.

The changes will not affect board or employee premiums, according to a report from Brown & Brown.

The cost of the plan enhancements will be approximately $164,000, which will come out of the insurance reserve, a fund that was at $4.6 million from the last plan year.

The co-pays will decrease from $50 to $20 for primary care visits and $75 to $40 for specialist visits for both the standard and premium HMO plans. Urgent care co-pays will decrease from $100 to $50 for the standard plan. Generic drug copays will be $5.

“The items that we adjusted are not really expensive, but I think they give back to employees on the services they use most,” Danielle Boyle, Brown & Brown’s senior vice president, told the board.

The insurance committee recommended the adjustments to make the HMO plans more affordable.

The insurance committee also voted to decrease HSA deductibles from $2,500 to $2,000 for an individual and from $5,000 to $4,000 for a family. The board unanimously agreed.

The insurance committee’s recommendation to a one-time refund for all members of the health plan was not presented at the meeting.

But, Katie Hansen, president of the Flagler County Educators Association, said negotiations are ongoing.

LINC Flagler Volusia is a multiagency data system that enables 20 providers to send referrals to a network of other service providers on behalf of individuals seeking assistance.

“Just the school year, over 1,000 students have been identified as having a behavioral health need and been referred to a behavioral health provider,” Baird said. (Flagler Schools has about 13,000 students total.) “That’s what’s beautiful about a school district: There are so many adults caring adults who have contact with students every day and can identify when something’s wrong.”

Identifying a need is the first step; finding a medical professional who can help is another challenge.

School districts take added precautions in wake of Texas shooting Volusia, Flagler ramped up security for the end of the school year.

BRENT WORONOFF STAFF WRITER

Volusia and Flagler school district officials reassured parents, students and staff about their schools’ security in wake of the Tuesday, May 24, shooting that left 19 children and two adults dead at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas.

“Our hearts are with the families and friends of the innocent victims, Robb Elementary School, and the Uvalde community,” stated a message posted May 25 on Volusia County Schools’ Twitter feed.

“The top priority of VCS is to provide students, faculty, and staff with safe campuses where they can work, learn, and reach their highest poten-

File photo

tial.”

“It’s just unimaginable that this has happened again,” said Flagler County School Board member Colleen Conklin, who helped organize a candlelight vigil May 28 at Veterans Park in Flagler Beach to honor the victims of the Texas and Buffalo, New York, shootings.

"All of the legislation you see that other states are looking at and that the federal government is looking at, Florida has already done."

TOM LEEK, who represents Ormond Beach in the Florida House

Flagler School Board Chair Trevor Tucker said it’s understandable that parents are concerned in light of the tragedies.

“Any time one of these tragedies happen, parents are always concerned about the safety of their children,” Tucker said.

VCS spokesperson Nancy Gonzalez said the district has a total of 105 school resource officers, school resource deputies and school guardians based throughout the district.

“After (the May 24) tragic events, we communicated with our local law enforcement partners and requested extra patrols and extra presence on campuses for the remainder of the school year (to June 3),” Gonzalez wrote in an email.

With more visitors on campuses for end-of-the-year celebrations, Flagler had already scheduled more officers at the schools.

“Flagler Schools takes the safety and well-being of our students, faculty, and staff very seriously,” Superintendent Cathy Mittelstadt said in a message to parents, students and staff on May 25. “We value our continuing partnership with the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office as they provide School Resource Deputies for each of our school campuses. You will notice additional law enforce-

ment presence as we end the school year.”

Flagler County’s final day of school was May 27.

After the Parkland shooting in 2018, the state Legislature passed the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Act which required school safety officers at all public schools and provided additional funding to school districts.

Florida Rep. Tom Leek, whose district includes Ormond Beach, told the Observer that Florida is ahead of other states in setting school safety standards.

“All of the legislation you see that other states are looking at and that the federal government is looking at, Florida has already done,” Leek said.

But he added that that doesn’t mean Florida can’t do more.

Conklin said a Flagler School Board executive session is scheduled for June 1 to provide the board with an overview of district safety protocols and discuss any possible revisions or updates.

“It’s that time of year when we would look into plans and protocols and hardening our facilities,” she said.

She said she would like to see the district do an audit of current protocols.

Other provisions of the 2018 Florida law included new requirements for mental health services and training and launching the FortifyFL app to report suspicious activity.

“Florida has done a pretty good job requiring more secure schools and has provided the funding to do so,” Tucker said. “It’s a lot harder now to gain access to schools.”

Gonzalez said since the Parkland shooting, Volusia County Schools has hired a director of security operations, created a security operations department and a school guardian program, implemented a singlepoint of entry at every school, added a crisis alert system for employees, added fencing and surveillance cameras, created mental health teams and created a Student Hero Award program to privately recognize students who come forward to report weapons on campus, threatening behaviors or suspicious activity.

“We have learned so much from every tragedy beyond our school district borders,” Mittelstadt said in her May 25 message. “But we know we cannot do this alone. If you see or know of something... say something.

Utilize the FortifyFL app to report any suspicious activity or concerns.”

Jarleene Almenas and Brian McMillan contributed to this story.

“The purpose of these sessions is to find attributes these stakeholders would like to see in a campus leader,” the district said.

FINDERS, KEEPERS? 2:41 p.m. — First block of Byron Ellinor Drive, Ormond Beach Larceny. A 36-year-old Palm Coast Uber driver reported to police that a group of teens he had recently picked up from a local McDonald’s and dropped off at an Ormond Beach home had stolen his medical marijuana.

According to the incident report, the driver said that once he realized the marijuana was missing, he drove back and attempted to speak to the teenagers. He knocked on the front door multiple times, but no one answered. He could smell from outside that they were smoking his marijuana.

When police arrived, the driver was standing near the property, watching to see if the teenagers exited the home. He explained the situation to the reporting officer, and the officer commented that he didn’t understand how the teens knew about the marijuana if it had been inside his vehicle’s center console.

The man then admitted that the unit was in plain view because the door to shut the console had been open as he intended to use some later “because he was having a bad day,” the report details.

The officer explained the laws about medical marijuana, and the driver then became upset when the officer remarked that, while it was legal to transport the marijuana from the dispensary to a private residence or property, the law didn’t extend to picking up Uber customers. If the marijuana had been

The officer did acknowledge the teens shouldn’t have taken it.

The man said he was going to sit out in front of the home until the parents arrived, and the officer suggested he not do that since the incident involved minors and he was a “large adult.” The officer offered to call a teen’s parents and let him know the outcome, but the driver said he was “done” speaking with the officer, asked for the supervisor’s information, and asked to leave. He sped away, upset.

About five minutes later, the homeowner arrived and the officer explained to him what had transpired. The homeowner offered to bring one of the teens out, but they had all run out the back door during the driver’s conversation with the officer.

A woman from Orlando had stayed in the room two nights prior and police attempted to make contact.

Her voicemail inbox was full, and the reporting officer was unable to leave a message. Deputies in Orange County conducted a wellbeing check, and stated that the woman knew nothing about the note and was “sketched out” by it.

According to his arrest report, the man said that all of the officers knew who he was from previous interactions and trespassing incidents.

He was placed under arrest. While the reporting officer conducted a search on his person, the man admitted to having a used syringe in his right sock. He said he had used it for methamphetamine that morning in the woods. Police also found a partially smoked marijuana cigarette on his person.

SUSPECT CHEST BUMPS OFFICER 8:05 p.m. — 600 block of North State Street, Bunnell Battery on a LEO. Police responded to a local bar as backup, and upon the officer’s arrival, heard yelling and spotted a 57-year-old Bunnell man walking toward them.

The man walked past the reporting officer, who noticed he was bleeding from an injury on his forehead. The man continued walking out into the parking lot, and the officer tried to gauge what was going on and if he needed medical attention, unsure if the man was a suspect at the time.

According to the man’s arrest report, the man stood in the rain and refused officer’s requests to move, after which he chest bumped the reporting officer. The man then resisted arrest and the officer attempted to Tase him twice, with the man grabbing the wires and breaking them both times. A second officer then Tased him. He continued to resist until the reporting officer

MAN BUYS OLD CREDIT CARD ON THE INTERNET 1:02 a.m. — I-95 at the Palm Coast Parkway exit ramp, Palm Coast Possession of ID of another without authorization. A deputy was notified of a vehicle that matched the description of one utilized in a series of diesel thefts and spotted its driver, a 27-year-old man from Orlando, pumping diesel into a container in the bed of his pickup truck at local gas station.

The deputy then observed him leave the gas station, and conducted a traffic stop at the I-95 ramp shortly afterward. According to an arrest report, as the deputy approached the vehicle, he noticed a spilled liquid all over a black tank in the bed of the truck. The man, who didn’t speak English, called his girlfriend to be able to translate for him.

The man denied ownership of the truck, saying it belonged to his stepfather and that he uses the tanks to fuel semitrucks, as his stepfather is a truck driver. The deputy questioned why he only spent around $2 at the gas station, and the man said that gas was too expensive and decided not to continue to fill the tanks.

When the deputy asked to see the card he used for the transaction, he also observed a white credit card that the man didn’t provide. The man said he bought it online and was advised to only use it for fuel; the card no longer works.

Deputies discovered the card expired in 2005 and belonged to someone else. As the man admitted he had used it in the past to purchase fuel, he was arrested and taken to jail.

Chance meeting: WWII pilot flies again Rotary Club volunteers plant neighborhood flags Ormond Beach’s John DiMartino received a special gift for his 103rd birthday.

Residences in Ocean Hammock were decorated with flags in honor of Memorial Day.

JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

Once a pilot, always a pilot.

A local World War II veteran recently returned to the skies after encountering a stranger on Wednesday, May 18. John DiMartino, of Ormond Beach, was celebrating his early103rd birthday with family at Manny’s Pizza House when Steve Searle walked up to their table. The two soon found out they had quite a bit in common.

Both pilots, and both veterans of the U.S. Navy — Searle, of Ormond Beach, is a Vietnam War veteran — offered to take DiMartino flying to celebrate his birthday the next day.

It was a privilege, said Searle, whose father had also served in World War II. “He already was a naval aviator,” he said. “He hadn’t been up in the air for quite some time. He got back up for another flight.”

DiMartino even flew part of the flight.

He will turn 103 on June 24. DiMartino served from 1941 to 1945 and

He has been a pilot for 64 years and flew until he was 90 years old.

DiMartino is originally from Boyne City, Michigan. In 1984, according to an email, he purchased a residence in Ormond Beach to be close to his sister, Grace, and he and his family have been coming down for the winter since.

Steve Searle said it was a privilege to fly with a World War II veteran and pilot.

Palm Coast man arrested after seven-hour standoff The SWAT team used a battering ram to force open the door, which the suspect had barricaded.

MELISSA MORREALE FCSO PUBLIC AFFAIRS OFFICER

On Thursday afternoon, May 26, the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office responded to a domestic disturbance in Palm Coast’s W Section, where 51-year-old Mark Francioni was ultimately arrested after a seven-hour standoff.

A female caller advised the Sheriff’s Office that Wednesday evening, Francioni made statements about killing himself. He then threatened her, saying: “I could kill you right now,” and, “I’m going to put a bullet in your head.” The victim, who was in another room, heard a gunshot, ran to the sound and saw Francioni standing near the bed, saying, “Now I know it works, and you’re next.”

Thursday morning, Francioni continued his aggressive behavior and took the victim’s cell phone, throwing it at her, as she attempted to leave the home. He continued to threaten her life, grow more aggressive and smash her belongings. She then made her way to the front door, opened it and was grabbed by Francioni and pulled back in, screaming for help. Eventually, the victim was able to escape to a neighbor’s house and called 9-1-1.

Deputies responded to the Welling Place residence around 1:30 p.m. to find Francioni barricaded in his home. The FCSO SWAT and Crisis Negotiations Team responded after learning there were multiple firearms in the home and Francioni refused to exit. Throughout the afternoon and into the evening, he made multiple threats to harm himself and others, while consuming alcoholic beverages and progressively getting more agitated. Around 8:30 p.m. after

seven hours of negotiations which had deteriorated as he became more intoxicated and irrational, Sheriff Rick Staly, who was on the scene, authorized the SWAT team to use the battering ram on the armored Bearcat to force open the door, which he had also barricaded. Francioni then began to exit the home but when he failed to follow orders, he was struck with two less-lethal 40mm rubber rounds and was then secured without further incident.

“This drunken dirtbag had multiple firearms in his possession and disturbed the neighborhood for hours,” Sheriff Rick Staly said. “We knew from the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office, who had a prior standoff with him, that we had to be strategic and take forceful action as his liquid courage was increasing. I’m very proud of our team for successfully getting this guy to exit the residence and take him into custody. Hopefully, this guy stays locked up so he can’t continue to threaten our community or the victim.”

Francioni previously was been charged in Volusia County in 2010 for Domestic Battery, Driving Under the Influence and was charged in 2005 in Pennsylvania with Aggravated Assault. Francioni, facing charges for Felony Domestic Battery and Aggravated Assault, was held under a $60,000 bond. Additional charges are pending.

BRIEFS B-CU honors the legacy of Professor Emeritus Cleo Higgins Bethune-Cookman University is honoring the legacy of Professor Emeritus Cleo Higgins after her death Thursday, May 19. Higgins served B-CU in administrative leadership roles as vice president for academic affairs and dean of the faculty 1976–1986.

“We are deeply saddened by the loss of Dr. Cleo Higgins,” said Interim President Hiram C. Powell. “She left her mark on this campus and community in more ways than one, and we look forward to honoring her legacy for years to come.”

In 1945, Higgins became an English instructor at what was then known as Bethune-Cookman College. From 1946-1948, she served as chairman of the English department, before going on to serve as the chairman of the division of humanities until 1956. In 1970, Higgins returned to Bethune-Cookman College as the acting chairman of the division of humanities and was reinstated to the full-time role in 1973. Higgins retired in 1988 after 43 years of educational service, but she continued to teach part-time and volunteer at Daytona Beach schools, local communities and churches, and penal institutions.

Higgins is credited with designing the seal of Bethune-Cookman College in 1947.

Two Jacksonville motorcyclists die in crash on Interstate 95 Two motorcycle riders were killed in a crash on Tuesday, May 24, in northern Flagler County.

Four motorcycles were traveling northbound on Interstate 95 approaching Mile Marker 296 in the left travel lane, at 9:39 p.m. May 24, when the crash occurred, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.

A sport utility vehicle, driven by a 48-year-old Jacksonville woman, was traveling northbound on Interstate 95 approaching mile marker 296 in the center lane.

For an unknown reason, the four motorcycles collided into one another, and all four riders were ejected into the roadway. Subsequently, the SUV struck one of motorcycle riders.

Two of the motorcycle riders were pronounced deceased on scene, one 22 years old, one 29, both from Jacksonville.

The drivers of the other two motorcycles, ages 25 and 36, both also from Jacksonville, were transported to local hospitals with non-lifethreatening injuries. The northbound lanes of Interstate 95 were closed for approximately six hours.

FSCO arrests man for punching 76-year-old A Flagler County man is being held at the Sheriff Perry Hall Inmate Detention Facility on no bond after punching an elderly man in the face on May 25. Flagler County Sheriff’s Office arrested 39-year-old Sean Ruel. Ruel was at the Shell gas station on Palm Coast Parkway NE Sunday when he became frustrated and threw a cup of coffee on the ground, which splashed up and hit a 76-year-old man on the leg.

In the gas station surveillance video, you can see the victim walk outside and ask Ruel why he threw coffee at him. Ruel then punches the victim in the face knocking him to the ground and then leaving the area. After deputies arrived on scene, the Real Time Crime Center was notified and provided a description of photos of the suspect.

The 76-year-old man was taken to the hospital with minor injuries.

Deputies were able to identify and locate Ruel the next day and eventually arrest him.

Ruel is charged with Battery of a Person over 65. He’s been previously arrested and charged with three DUI’s in California.

Office manager charged in $200,000 payroll theft

The office manager of an area marine towing company is charged with stealing more than $200,000 from the company by inflating her own pay without the owner’s knowledge.

Jamie K. Mann, 35, of Daytona Beach, was arrested Friday on a

charge of grand theft.

The investigation started in April after the Ormond Beach company contacted the Volusia Sheriff’s Office. An initial review of payroll records revealed that Mann had altered payroll several times, given herself three $5 hourly raises and overpaid herself more than $165,000 between September 2019 and April 2022.

Upon further investigation, it was discovered Mann was providing different payroll records to the owner to obscure the true pay she was actually receiving. In addition to her self-approved pay raises, Mann regularly paid herself extra compensation for “on-call” time, and time-anda-half for overtime.

While her estimated annual salary was supposed to be $41,022, in 2021, Mann grossed $122,844 in salary for a reported 4,127.2 hours of work.

Since the beginning of the thefts, it was calculated that Mann stole more than $201,000 in excess pay plus payroll tax costs.

A review of Mann’s bank records indicated much of the money was spent on Amazon purchases, amusement park tickets, home improvement and decoration, restaurants and other recreational expenses.

Mann was transported to the Volusia County Branch Jail on Friday afternoon and released Saturday afternoon after posting $50,000 bail.

New fire engine dedicated to fallen hero Marine Lance Cpl. John T. Schmidt III died from injuries sustained in Iraq in 2005.

states and taken to Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonino, Texas. He sustained a chemical injury to both lungs; he later died from those injuries on May 11. Schmidt was laid to rest with full military honors at Arlington National Cemetery.

He was awarded the Purple Heart.

Schmidt was known for his love of the Marine Corps; his family shared a story that while in intensive care he was visited by the Commandant of the Marine Corps while under sedation. When coming to and being shown the Commandants Challenge Coin, he immediately wanted to know if his hair was “high

and tight.”

The idea for dedicating a fire truck to the memory of a fallen solider was proposed by Firefighter-Paramedic Christopher Strozier, who is a Navy Veteran.

“We often forget why we have the rights and freedoms we do,” Strozier said. “Dedicating the fire engine to the memory of a Gold Star Families is a small way to show our appreciation for what they have sacrificed.”

The Fire Department plans each Memorial Day to dedicate a fire engine to a Gold Star Recipient whose name is inscribed in the Veterans Memorial at Heroes Memorial Park. In 2021, Ladder 25

was dedicated to the memory of Marine Sgt. Zachary J. Walters; which weeks after the dedication, Ladder 25 was involved in a high profile rescue of a juvenile threatening to jump off an overpass.

“John’s engine will be first in and last out to all the calls for one of our busiest zones and second due to everywhere in the city,” stated Fire Chief Jerry Forte. “We will send John’s truck to ease the pain, suffering and anxiety of those in distress or perhaps just make their day better, just as he set out to leave this world a better place, by his willingness to defend this great nation. We’re forever grateful for his supreme sacrifice.”

Two candidates for School Board’s District 4

BRENT WORONOFF STAFF WRITER

Flagler County School Board Chairman Trevor Tucker is running for a fourth term.

Christy Chong has also filed for the District 4 seat.

They are the only two active candidates in the race; three other candidates have withdrawn.

Tucker said he decided in December to run for the fourth time. Chong, a family nurse practitioner, said she had been thinking about running for about a year but didn’t make up her mind until meeting with School Board member Jill Woolbright and Shannon Rambow, the Flagler County Chapter chair of Moms for Liberty.

Tucker has been a School

"How do we get those students who were behind (after remote learning) back on track? It's a nationwide issue. We were ahead of the curve, but you still have time missed that you have to make up."

TREVOR TUCKER

"I want to make reading and literacy a priority and make sure our children are prepared for the future and know that they have a purpose and identity, not to be confused about who they are but become adults that can lead us into the future."

CHRISTY CHONG

Board member since January, 2010, when he was appointed by the governor to finish out the term of late School Board member Peter Palmer. Tucker won his first election later that year.

He said his most important reason for running again is having two children, ages 13 and 17, who are students in Flagler Schools, with an 8-month-old who will be starting school in a few years.

“It’s a little selfish for my children, but it’s for everybody’s children,” he said.

Chong also has two children who attend Flagler County schools and a 4-year-old who will be starting in the fall.

“I think parents should get involved and not just complain about it on social media,” she said.

Tucker said the most important issue facing the school district is students’ academic loss triggered by the COVID-19 shutdown in 2020.

While Flagler County was well prepared for remote learning, it was not the same

as being in a classroom with a teacher, and many students fell behind, he said.

“How do we get those students who were behind back on track?” Tucker asks. “It’s a nationwide issue. We had less down time in Florida. We were ahead of the curve, but you still have time missed that you have to make up.”

Chong said indoctrination and parental rights are major issues.

“I want to make reading and literacy a priority and make sure our children are prepared for the future and know that they have a purpose and identity, not to be con-

fused about who they are but become adults that can lead us into the future,” she said. “We also need to make sure we are doing the most that we can to make our students and teachers safe in today’s world.”

Tucker has no contributions listed so far. He said he doesn’t begin campaigning until closer to the Aug. 23 primary. Chong has $2,100 in contributions listed — $2,000 are self-contributions — and $698.71 of expenditures for signs.

CAP aims to grow young leaders Civil Air Patrol’s cadet program focuses on aerospace and STEM education.

ORMOND

JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

Specializing in Northern Italian and French cuisines he revels in working with fresh pasta and hand Now proudly serving Prime butchered meats and fish.

Black Angus Chef Krause has completely beef that is reimagined our cuisine and we hand-cut are excited to present you the in house! pinnacle of fine dinning and entertainment in Central Florida.

One day, Cadet Chief Master Sgt. Hannah Rasch aims to join the U.S. Navy. For now, though, the Ormond Beach 16-year-old is concentrating her efforts on the Ormond Beach Composite Squadron of the Civil Air Patrol cadet program.

“The thing with CAP is, if you don’t put the effort into it, you’re not going to get anything out of it,” Rasch said. “... I’ve put the effort in, and I’ve come a long way from the cadet that came in.”

Rasch has been with CAP for about two years. A second-generation cadet, as her father had also been in CAP, Rasch has been able to learn more about and prepare for the military since joining.

The Ormond Beach Composite Squadron dates back to the early 1960s. The building the organization calls home is the oldest in the Ormond Beach Municipal Airport, and once used to be a hangar. In the 2000s, the squadron absorbed what remained of the Daytona Beach CAP squadron, and it is the only one in Volusia and

Flagler counties. The other nearest squadrons are located in St. Augustine and Sanford.

Civil Air Patrol is the auxiliary of the Air Force, having been founded on Dec. 1, 1941, years before the Air Force was founded in 1947. According to CAP, the organization aimed to “mobilize the nation’s civilian aviation resources for national defense service.” Its squadrons nationwide help with search and rescue, disaster relief, and security.

But its cadet program, which currently has about 20 active cadets in Ormond Beach, targets aerospace and STEM education, as well as leadership.

“When it comes specifically to the cadet program, it’s really a development of leadership,” said Capt. Eddie Marcal.

About 10% of the U.S. Air Force Academy is made up of former CAP cadets, said Lt. Col Ryan Wallace. The program is open to children ages 12, and they are able to remain until they’re 21, though once they turn 18, they can opt to join the senior ranks of CAP. “They obtain rank, they have the opportunity to learn about drilling ceremonies, respect to the flag, they have a moral or ethical leadership series of seminars,” Wallace said. “So they are literally developing themselves in the code to be of service to their

Cadets practice a drill and ceremony outside of their headquarters.

community, state and nation.”

It was through CAP’s cadet program that Wallace discovered he had a passion for the military, and later joined the Air Force. Marcal is also a former cadet, and his son is now in the program too.

Joining the cadet program also gives children the opportunity to fly a plane with a qualified pilot, a perk if they are especially interested in aviation. Marcal said that, in addition, cadets participate in national youth aerospace initiatives such CAP’s high altitude balloon challenge, a STEM-based competition where cadets conduct experiments within a small capsule, to be later launched to 100,000 feet and returned for later analyses.

The Florida Department of Health in Flagler County (DOH-Flagler) urges residents to prepare for the rapidly approaching hurricane season, especially with the passing of National Hurricane Preparedness Week: May 1 to May 7.

“Every year, hurricane season is anticipated to start earlier, and you can never be too prepared,” said Robert Snyder, DOH-Flagler Health Officer, “Flagler County was fortunate last year, but if we think about how Irma and Matthew impacted us, Flagler residents shouldn’t take storm preparation for granted.”

The Florida Department of Health in Flagler County advises starting early to update emergency plans, restock hurricane supplies, and confirm registration for

special needs shelter accommodation. The following tips are suggested as a “Plan of Action” for the 2022 hurricane season: Determine the risks to your home, property, or business; make repairs as needed, clean up debris, and trim trees.

Develop or update an emergency evacuation plan and review the plan carefully with your family and children – don’t forget to include your pets in your evacuation plan; Make sure you have adequate insurance by contacting your insurance company or agent; make copies of all essential documents and seal them in a waterproof bag.

Assemble a disaster supply kit.

Identify your trusted sources of information for any severe weather event or hurricane. Credible and timely information is critical to taking the appropriate actions in the event of an emergency; and Complete a written hurricane plan and keep it in a safe, easily accessible location.

Everyone living in Florida should have an emergency preparedness kit that meets their specific needs. Items to include, replenish and replace are: Water (at least one gallon a day per person for 5-7 days); Nonperishable packaged or canned food (enough for at

least 5 to 7 days).

Any necessary medications in their prescribed bottles (enough for two weeks).

First aid kit.

Flashlights with extra batteries.

Weather band radio.

Lanterns, candles, and matches.

Fuel and propane.

Pet care items (including any pet medications).

Other vital documents (stored in a waterproof container).

For more information about hurricane preparation, visit Flagler County Emergency Management’s website.

If you, a friend, or a family member have a disability or a special need such as a medical condition, please preregister with Flagler County Emergency Operations. The registration list is updated each year so that those who require electricity, refrigeration for medication, or oxygen can be assisted quickly during an emergency. For more information, visit www.flaglercounty.org/emergency or call 386-313-4970.

With Habitat for Humanity’s help, woman opens door to a new life Leticia Garner can now pursue her dream of becoming a foster parent.

“They ask you, ‘What does owning a home mean to you?’ To me, it means freedom, not being rent broke anymore.”

BRENT WORONOFF

LETICIA GARNER

STAFF WRITER

Leticia Garner has always wanted to be a foster parent. Now that she owns her own home, her dream is on the way to becoming a reality.

She is scheduled to begin her foster parent training on June 2, six days after she cut the ribbon on her Palm Coast home, made possible through Flagler Habitat for Humanity.

“I don’t think it can be any better than to start the weekend this way,” Flagler Habitat for Humanity Executive Director Lindsay Elliott said to open the home dedication on May 27.

Holding her Shih Tzu mix, Georgie, and surrounded by her friends and four godchildren — Brian, Abigail, Rosalie and Isabella — Garner cut the pink ribbon and entered the new house for the first time as a homeowner.

“She is awesome,” Elliott said.

“Just a ball of energy.”

The process took over two years of perseverance.

“It would have been so easy to give up, but I didn’t,” said Garner after Flagler Habitat for Humanity Construction Manager John Knox presented her with a gold hammer. Her friend Joan Findley also presented her with a Bible, and Yolanda Boone performed a house blessing.

Garner didn’t get selected the first time she applied to Habitat for Humanity. After paying off her car loan and school loan, she applied again and was selected. But that was

about the time when the pandemic hit and home construction came to a halt.

She ended up doing a lot of her 250 sweat equity hours at Habitat’s Palm Coast ReStore. Last August, she spent two weeks in the hospital with COVID and then she was on 24 hours of oxygen for a few months after that, she said. A car accident set her back further.

“I recovered just in time to start building,” Garner said.

partner families’ homes and doing homeowner training. Garner took nine week-long classes covering such things as hurricane preparedness, fire safety, code enforcement, home care and repair, homeowner’s insurance and mortgages.

“We try to set them up as much as possible to be successful,” said Elliott, who has been with Habitat for Humanity for 21 years, the past 16 in Flagler County. “Habitat becomes a family. We’re able to help them through the process. We’re a social service, a construction company, and we become their mortgage company.”

The last 100 hours of sweat equity are spent helping build your own home. Normally a 16-week process, Garner’s home took six months to build because of material shortages.

Garner originally heard about Habitat for Humanity through her friend, Melissa Rodriguez, who went to an orientation but didn’t qualify.

“She came back and said, ‘Leticia, I think this is for you,’” Garner recalled. “She planted the seed. But it took me a year to take action.”

Garner works at Epic Behavioral Healthcare as a substance abuse peer recovery specialist.

“I help people who need help with substance abuse,” she said. “I’m there to listen. I’ve been in recovery myself for eight years.”

She is four credits short of earning her bachelor’s degree. She is active at Calvary Christian Center Palm

Coast, serving with Boone in Calvary Kids. Georgie is a rescue dog, but Garner says they rescued each other.

With a 20-year, no-interest loan through Habitat, her mortgage payments with escrow for her threebedroom, two-bath home will be just under $700, Elliott said. Garner had been paying $1,350 in rent for a one-bedroom apartment.

To be a foster parent, each child has to have his or her own room. Now, Garner meets that requirement. She also has a yard that Georgie and the kids can run around in.

“They ask you, ‘What does owning a home mean to you?’” she said of Habitat. “To me, it means freedom, not being rent broke anymore, where most of your salary goes to rent.”

She said she was surprised that a single person could qualify for a Habitat for Humanity home. But after helping people in recovery, serving in her church, signing up to be a foster parent and rescuing Georgie, it was finally Garner’s opportunity to be rescued.

MY VIEW

ORMOND BEACH

We do not need an Ormond airport runway extension Joseph Valerio, a candidate for City Commission, has 40 years of experience in the aerospace business, most of it in general aviation.

JOSEPH VALERIO GUEST WRITER

LETTERS Airport freedom act Dear Editor: Every claim in the opinion letter by Karin Augat concerning the airport runway extension is verifiable by emails between the city and FAA. Those emails prove her claims and disprove the city’s previous assertions. I have read her emails. Her documentation is so thorough that the city’s response finally admits they cut the 1,000 feet desired extension to 600 feet for now. They reasoned that they did not have the time to complete another study to get the 400 more feet they really need before the grant money runs off.

Make no mistake, that was finally an admission that 1,000 feet is their ultimate extension goal and they won’t stop until they get it. Now we know why the city mysteriously allowed the golf course to die without seeking new management to take it over “as is.” The 400 more feet requires three holes on the back nine to be moved.

I requested an email from the FAA that responded to the city inquiring if Riverbend Golf Course could stay open. The FAA email stated that the Airport District Office thought the city intended to move forward with a study of a runway extension alternative that would include golf course lands, but that if the city wished to re-lease the golf course, a redesign of the affected holes was a way to address the issue.

In other words, it could have been left open all along and after any runway extension. The FAA did not kill it as previously claimed. The gun was planted on them. The city commissioners should care more about thousands of citizens enjoying golf with their families, than just a few wanting NetJets. It took a dedicated citizen who knows the Freedom of Information Act to get them to fess up.

The city’s noise reduction and pie-in-the-sky space-exploration-jobs-here gambit is no way to represent the people. A ruined golf course and more noise for us is really just about fatter vacation jaunting planes and NetJets.

NetJets requires a total of 5,000 feet, thus mandating the 400 feet coming soon. Three commissioners so far voting for the extension are leaving the commission. Mayor Partington and Commissioner Persis remain and they also knew better.

We need to start over. That includes not electing any of those candidates funding their campaigns with major airport user big money or recruited to succeed the departing.

DON MILLER Ormond Beach

Editor’s note: NetJets is a private business jet company.

Unanswered questions Dear Editor: I attended the May 10 OB Life meeting regarding the proposed Ormond Beach Airport runway extension and left with more questions than answers.

Why did our city officials not know how many homes are located in the FAA’s 2.5-mile-radius Airport Hazard Area? Why no mention of the FAA Airport Hazard Area?

What portion of Ormond Beach’s population lives within the Hazard Area footprint?

I am writing this letter out of concern about the negative impact that the proposed Ormond Beach airport runway extension from 4,005 feet to 4,605 feet will have on nearby residents. The two biggest issues for them are noise and fuel smell. The way the proposed airport extension was presented at the OB Life meeting held on May 10 was misleading.

The concerns about noise and fuel smell were not adequately addressed. I was present at that meeting, and I would say that 70% of the people left feeling that they were not heard.

I have worked in the aerospace business for 40 plus years, with most of it in general aviation. So, I know that jets are very noisy and

smell of kerosene during startup, taxi, takeoff and initial climb. I will add that I am against increasing the runway length above the existing 4,005 feet.

There were several talking points brought up in the OB Life meeting that I disagree with: - It was stated that the increase in runway length will increase flight safety. In fact, this statement is misleading. Existing operators/ owners/pilots will not operate an aircraft beyond the capabilities of the 4,005 foot runway. It is not a safety issue; it is an increase in runway capabilities to allow operators to takeoff with higher gross weight.

- It was stated that the increase in runway length will be less noisy since the aircraft will be higher in

altitude during the climb phase. In fact, this statement is misleading as well. As stated above, operators taking off with higher gross weight will not be at a higher altitude during the climb phase.

- It was stated that the increase in runway length will not increase jet traffic. If that were true, Ormond Beach would be wasting taxpayer money. What this really means to me is that Ormond Beach plans to incorporate the remaining 400 feet in the near future to allow companies such as Flex Jets to operate at the Ormond Beach airport. Note that a 400-foot future runway extension is still part of the city’s long-range plan.

Email letters to jarleene@ ormondbeachobserver.com.

Responding to the noise issue, City Airport Manager Steve Lichliter referenced the citizen Noise Abatement Task Force, established in 2009. Why did he fail to mention this Task Force has not met in years, despite ongoing citizen noise complaints?

City Financial Officer Kelly McGuire explained that internal loans like the $686,000 the airport has “borrowed” from the city’s General Fund are executed frequently, with interest paid internally. Why did she fail to mention that not one dime has been repaid by the airport to the General Fund since 2015?

If the airport generates its own revenue as a separate financial entity, why has it gone so deeply in debt in a relatively short number of years? Will this debt not sharply increase with the loss of $100,000 annual revenue from the River Bend Golf Course, now closed by the city?

Why are the mayor and proponents pushing a $4 million runway extension when the city is claiming the extra length will result in only three more operations per day?

How will three more daily operations accomplish the economic growth touted by the mayor?

Why was there no discussion of the proposal to bring larger NetJets operations into Ormond Beach?

This plan is referenced in the city’s capital project detail for extending Runway 9/27. Why was there no discussion of the city’s long-range plan for a 400-foot runway extension to the east, requiring costly rerouting of 2,100 feet of Airport Road into the protected Tomoka River ecosystem?

Why has our mayor not explained to citizens why he voted against a runway extension proposal in 2004, but now supports this runway extension?

While longer runways are safer in theory, why has the existing runway length been adequate for decades, without incident or FAA or pilot complaints? Would the FAA allow unsafe operations?

It is disappointing that the May 10 OB Life meeting continued a lack of elected official transparency in making the runway extension decision. Ormond Beach citizens deserve better.

easements.

It appears reports are made to show what is wanted while the consultants’ documents can only state approximate airport boundary lines. Neither the city nor Hoyle Tanner when asked have a survey of the airport property boundary. How can this be?

This consultant that has remained for many years, now works from “no survey” of airport boundary. So interesting, as a 30-foot-wide, 8- to 10-foot-deep canal/ditch with water, known as the A-14 canal system, that was done by the Navy to drain the airstrip fails.

It should be mentioned or shown or identified for environmental assessment. Why? This canal is at the city-county boundary line. I feel it should be identified by a field survey for accurate measurements to be used by this consultant. My property adjoins the airport property at this location.

Proposed A1A ‘Upgrades’

ROB BRIDGER Ormond Beach

Runway 9-27 Dear Editor: Ormond Beach had the opportunity to carry out the 1,000-foot extension west as the grant provided for. However, they want to say they were unable to obtain easements needed from the property owners. What did they do to get such easements?

The Uniform Act could have allowed them to purchase the properties in need. FAA informed them to follow the act. The facts to this are interesting! Now we are subject to: “Must be quiet. Can’t mention the 400 feet to the east for five years. Do a 600-foot and a 400-foot extension, making it different projects so NEPA (National Environmental Policy Act) does not prejudge this 600 feet.”

Part of the extension they want to do now is instead of the 1,000 feet that has been determined to be needed and had a grant awarded for with a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) based on obtaining

SHARON TRESCOTT Ormond Beach

My response to the city Dear Editor: The city stated: “There is a latent demand by some airport users operating larger aircraft to extend runway 8/26 to reduce their operational restrictions or allow larger aircraft use of the airport.” All right.

Again, the city stated: “Or allow larger aircraft use of the airport.”

One of the only two larger aircraft owners at the airport today stated he would purchase a larger aircraft with the runway extension.

So, again, why are you showing in your draft SEA the following C-II aircraft with faster approach speeds needing larger safety areas including Runway Protection Zone for the safety of people on the ground: Hawker 800, Citation X, Challenger 350, Challenger 600 to name a few?

The city stated: Trees have already been identified by Florida Department of Transportation as obstructing the approach to the existing runway.

I emailed FDOT on Oct. 25, 2021, inquiring about trees addressed in email correspondence between airport and FDOT regarding the 2021 Airport Inspection Report.

My purpose was to verify the trees addressed were on airport property. FDOT replied: “So the trees that are documented as the controlling obstruction and are the trees referenced on the inspection report, appear to be on airport property, according to the property appraiser’s website.”

After the city response above, I emailed FDOT relaying the city’s response in the Observer inquiring again about off-airport trees currently obstructing the runway. FDOT replied: “The FDOT aviation office has no documentation that trees to the west of the airport are obstructing the approach of the existing runway as they stated in the Ormond Beach Observer.” The only trees listed are on airport property.

Today, the subject trees are not an obstruction hazard to air space. You, the city, will cause the aircraft safety issue with the runway extension. Not to mention the “grandfather clause” for preexisting obstructions.

KARIN AUGAT Ormond Beach

Dear Editor: I reacted with shock and alarm when I read in the May 26 Observer that the Florida Department of Transportation proposed concepts for upgrades on A1A north of Granada Boulevard. Presented at a May 24 community meeting, one of the improvements would install a “chicane” or curve south of Amsden Road “to help slow traffic.”

The Neptune traffic light and the traffic signal at the Publix Shopping center already assure significant slowdowns and backups. We can only wonder if FDOT considered how semi-trucks serving the shopping center might negotiate the proposed “chicane” curve, and new problems for nighttime traffic on a poorly lit road.

Equally shocking is the artist rendering of a reconstructed A1A and Granada Boulevard intersection looking north from the traffic light. It appears one of the two vital stacking lanes for southbound A1A traffic has been eliminated and replaced with gratuitous landscaped medians. This reconfiguration also appears to severely limit A1A ingress-egress to the Granada Shopping Plaza.

What we really need, FDOT, is resurfacing on a road that has become a rutted washboard with crumbling shoulders in the 4-foot right of way bordering the sidewalk and Oceanside Country Club. Installing buttons and flashing warning lights at the pedestrian crossings might help people and bicycles get to and from the beach, resulting in the additional traffic slowdowns FDOT is seeking.

Ormond Beach has a transportation consultant on retainer, now in the fourth year of a lucrative fiveyear contract. What does she think of the FDOT “upgrades” proposed for A1A?

“Sweet Caroline” played throughout the Ocean Center while family and friends of the Seabreeze High School graduating class of 2022 sang the lyrics and waved their cell phone lights on Friday, May 27.

Seabreeze principal Earl Johnson said good morning to the “Sandcrab nation” as he presented the graduates to the crowd. Student Council co-president Brody Ochipa led the Pledge of Allegiance and was followed by “The Star-Spangled Banner,” sung by Lila Massabeau. People in the stands took over the song when the microphone cut out midway through her performance.

Valedictorian Ria Gupta will be attending the University of Central Florida and majoring in biochemistry. She spoke to her fellow graduates about the three essentials the Seabreeze community had taught them—support each other, adapt and keep it balanced. She parted with a quote from the writer and composer Anthony Burgess: “It’s always good to remember where you come from and celebrate it. To remember where you come from is part of where you’re going.”

Johnson commended the graduating class members for their resilience, perseverance, determination and fortitude, which had helped them overcome the pandemic’s obstacles.

Valedictorian Ria Gupta addressed her classmates regarding the three essentials that the Seabreeze community taught them: support, adapt, balance.

Dante Jones beamed as he got his photo taken at Seabreeze’s commencement.

Three hundred and forty-six graduates received their diplomas, with 45 as members of the National Honor Society, 17 with an AVID designation and 55 Cambridge AICE candidates. According to Johnson, 48% of the seniors graduated summa cum laude, magna cum laude and cum laude. They have accumulated over 28,249 community service hours and have attained over $5.6 million dollars in scholarships. Eleven students have already earned associate degrees from Daytona State College.

Johnson has been Seabreeze’s principal for one year but exclaimed it had been the best year out of his 33-year career.

“You are not the passive victim of circumstance, you are the action hero of your own journey,” he said.

Meet Ms. Debby: Nova Rec teacher showcases her students’ talents This year’s student recital, titled ‘Jungle,’ is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. on Sunday, June 5, at the Performing Arts Center, and will feature 35 students, ages 4 to 16.

JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

When it comes to putting on productions, Debby Mac Donald wears all the hats.

She writes original scripts, choreographs dances, makes the sets, orders the costumes and directs her student performers onstage at the annual recital for her “Dance and Act with Ms. Debby” classes. It’s a lot of work, but if you ask her, it’s more like a labor of love. And she certainly does love theater.

“I am passionate,” she said. “And everybody has vision, right? All creative people have visions, and you want to see it realized.”

Mac Donald’s classes have been a presence at the Nova Community Center for the last 18 years. And on the first Sunday of June, always on the week of her birthday, her student performers put on a show at the Ormond Beach Performing Arts Center, located at 399 N. U.S. 1.

This year’s show, titled “Jungle,” is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. on Sunday, June 5, and will feature about 35 students, ages 4 to 16. “Jungle” is about an expedition that runs into a bit of trouble along the journey. Tickets cost $15.

Every year, the Port Orange resident picks a different theme for the recital, and once she’s made her decision, begins writing the script.

She began working on “Jungle” in August, and continued to work on it until the end of April, all while keeping her students’ strengths and talents in mind.

“It’s worked out good so far,” said Mac Donald as she laughed. “You know, when you do a show like this with kids, you get everything together and you hope it flies. It always does fly.”

Mac Donald puts her decades of experience to work.

Originally from a small town in Canada, her exposure to dance began at 5 years old. She remembers her strict French ballet teacher — and how great of a teacher she was.

“It was a good introduction,” she said. “A good way to build the dedication that you need to have if you want to be any good at anything, right? You just have to stick with it and make it fun for yourself and make it fun for others.”

“Not only in their dancing or their acting, but they’re just so poised on stage,” Mac Donald said. “I guess it’s fun to see them grow up.”

And though she works hard on the shows herself, she also said she has great support from her students’ parents who are willing to help backstage or during dress rehearsals.

“I’ve been very fortunate to have a very successful program,” Mac

Donald said. “Thanks to the city of Ormond who supported me and the Nova Rec — they’ve always had my back if I needed something or got into situations like last year where we couldn’t use the Ormond Beach Performing Arts Center.” The PAC was still closed due to the pandemic.

Instead, she hung curtains in her dance room and her students put on three shows so all the parents could watch the recital in the small space.

“That was really challenging, but you know me — I’m up for a challenge,” Mac Donald said.

Heroes Honor Festival: giving Vietnam veterans welcome home U.S. Army veteran Ben Peterson founded the Heroes Honor Festival to give Vietnam veterans a place to celebrate and be celebrated.

MICHELE MEYERS CONTRIBUTING WRITER

The skies were abuzz with the sound of A10 Warthogs on Saturday of the Memorial Day weekend, at the Daytona International Speedway.

Cheering built to a crescendo as the flyover disappeared on the horizon.

Over 27,000 people were in attendance at the inaugural Heroes Honor Festival where Vietnam veterans could celebrate and be recognized for their service.

The event was the brainchild of U.S. Army veteran Ben Peterson, who brought it to fruition through his nonprofit organization, Engage Your Destiny. Mentorship, healing and addressing military trauma are key areas the outreach association focuses on for veterans, active military and their families.

“I grew up in a military family where the greatest thing you could do with your life is serve in combat,” he said. “My dad helped tell stories of veterans that had gone through horrific things and found peace and healing through telling their stories.”

When the planes hit the twin towers on Sept. 11, 2001, that was a pivotal moment for Peterson who decided at the age of 13 that he was going to join the military. One month after he turned 17, his parents signed his papers, and he joined the Army.

In 2009, Peterson arrived on American soil following a one-year

“We have been so thankful for Daytona.

The local Vietnam veterans chapter sat on the advisory board and sponsored us.”

“Back when I was 22, I passed through them, and it was time for beers and cheeseburgers and cars,” he said. “I think a lot of veterans forget (their homecoming). You’re

Peterson never forgot. As he learned more about how the Vietnam veterans were treated disparagingly when they returned home from war, he made it his objective to give these soldiers the “biggest, baddest, most patriotic welcome home in history.”

A website has been created for friends and family members of the students to make a reading pledge for them, such as $1 per reading session.

At the end of the summer, all money collected from the pledges will be donated to the Ormond Beach Elementary library. The proceeds will go toward purchasing a wider array of library books. The funds can also help teachers buy supplies and books for their classrooms.

“And then, the biggest excitement was when they brought up Craig Frick,” Partington said.

Frick, owner of a new local ice cream shop, Neighborhood Scoops, attended the book fair to offer a tasty incentive. If Ormond Beach Elementary students meet their school goal, Frick will reward the students with an ice cream party, full of delectable toppings, such as gummy bears, chocolate chips and sprinkles.

Students who have demonstrated outstanding performance following the reading challenge will be eligible to receive a year of free ice cream, courtesy of Neighborhood Scoops, which equates to about one trip per week.

Navy veteran Jim Drake is one of the directors for the Vietnam Veterans of America, Daytona Beach Chapter 1048.

Vietnam veterans, so the decision to have the festival here made sense. Finding a location that could accommodate a large group of people made the Speedway an ideal choice.

A cold call to the Speedway revealed that most everyone there had a connection to a Vietnam veteran, which opened the door to a positive response.

Peterson was overwhelmed by the support he received from the local community. Bob Adkins, president of the Vietnam Veterans of America Daytona Beach Chapter 1048, has been a friend to Peterson and a champion of the festival.

“We have been so thankful for Daytona,” Peterson said. “They’ve just been phenomenal. The local Vietnam veterans chapter sat on the advisory board and sponsored us.

Bob Adkins is a good man. I love that guy.”

Kiwanis READS! has returned for its second summer reading challenge, hosted by the Ormond Beach Kiwanis Club, following a two-year hiatus due to COVID-19. This year, the program is supported by Backers 4 Books, which enables supporters, using the Givebacks app, to receive cash back every time they shop, as well as helping to fund books to be donated to students in Ormond Beach.

The Kiwanis Club is a 100-yearold international organization that promotes the interests of children.

The Ormond Beach Kiwanis Club focuses specifically on providing books to local students.

In the state of Florida, students have fallen behind in school due to the COVID-19 pandemic. From 2016 to 2019, the number of Volusia County third graders who achieved a

3 or above on the Florida Standards Assessment English Language test was between 56% to 58%. In 2022, the number dropped to 51%.

Now more than ever, the future is dependent on today’s youth to maintain good grades and begin their path to success in adulthood, said Dillon Kalkhurst, president of the Ormond Beach Kiwanis Club, and a founding developer of Givebacks app.

“We are sponsoring Ormond Beach Elementary School and providing all 325 students with a $15 reading certificate,” he said. “Each one of the students is going to be able to enter the Scholastic Book Fair with $15 to spend.”

The Scholastic Book Fair took place May 16, in the Ormond Beach Elementary library.

“There was a tremendous amount of excitement and anticipation for the summer to get here so they could get started,” said Ormond Beach Mayor Bill Partington, who attended the book fair. “The teachers went through all the details of how it’s all going to work.”

The Kiwanis READS! challenge involves up to 20 minutes of reading per day for five days, for the 10 weeks of summer vacation, or 50 reading sessions.

BUSINESS OBSERVER Development, real estate + business news

Former Ormond hospital land sells for $2 million What will be built? The property owner has indicated retail and residential.

JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

The $2.05 million sale of the former Florida Hospital site at 264 S. Atlantic Ave. closed earlier this month, becoming one of the latest parcels on Ormond’s beachside that could soon see new development.

The property was purchased by Ormond Holdings LLC, a company based out of South Carolina, which also bought the vacant oceanfront parcel at 251 S. Atlantic Ave. for $5.3 million in January. A site plan submitted to the city in March shows the developer seeks to build a five-story, 95,700-square-foot hotel with 137 rooms in the oceanfront parcel. The developer also seeks to use a portion of the former hospital site across the street for hotel parking.

What will be built on the remainder of the 106,123 square feet of land? A mix of retail and residential.

Overall, it is a good sign for the beachside, according to local real estate agents.

Real estate agent John Haley, of Coldwell Banker Premier properties, said that the addition of retail shops and residential is a great idea.

“It means tax revenue for the city,” Haley said. “It means people spending more money in that area and to revitalize that area. Not only is it going to benefit leisure travelers, but locals as well, because now they’ll have more to do, particularly in that area.”

It’s always nice to see something new and improved, said John Adams president of Adams, Cameron and Co. The hospital site has been vacant since it was demolished in 2019, and a vacant site “doesn’t do a whole lot” for the beachside, he explained.

“I think the idea of having some new development along there is very positive,” Adams said.

With the low inventory of commercial land, he expects that instead

Flagler Palm Coast trio advances to national entrepreneurship challenge BRENT WORONOFF STAFF WRITER

For the second year in a row, Flagler Palm Coast High School is sending a regional finalist to the national Youth Entrepreneurship Challenge.

Rising sophomores Roman Savko, Darian Miroshnik and Leon Grigoruk were among six finalists at the May 13 Southeast Regional Final in Fort Lauderdale. They will advance to nationals in October in New York City. The competition is sponsored

by NFTE (the Network For Teaching

Mar Beach Resort at 507 S. Atlantic Ave., which sold for $3.1 million.

Both properties were sold in 2020.

While business travel is currently lagging a bit behind leisure travel in the city, Haley said the increase in visitors to this area will benefit the hospitality industry via a higher average daily rate, revenue per room and optionality.

In nearby Daytona Beach, new developments to the Hilton Daytona Beach Oceanfront Resort could also come soon. Haley is the listing agent for the commercial lease of the hotel, and said a national entertainment venue has expressed interest in 11,000 square feet of the spaces available for lease within the property.

“They (Starwood Capital Group, the owners of the property) want to make a better guest experience — really not interested in the revenue that would be generated by the spaces that are for lease,” Haley said.

“But when the guests have more to do right there and not leave the hotel, everyone benefits.”

Last year, Hailey Tucker advanced to the semifinal round at nationals when the event was held virtually.

This year, the three FPC students

will go to New York to pitch their idea — Peers, a tutoring business for students, by students.

“They’re go-getters. They’re very motivated,” said their entrepreneurship teacher, Corinne Schaefer.

“Peers is an online platform that’s affordable and accessible and focusing on students who need help.”

The three won $500 in cash and $150 in Amazon gift cards at the regional final.

“We’re going to split the gift cards for our own use, but the $500 will be strictly for our business,” Savko said.

Peers would pair up student tutors who are proficient in a subject with students who need help. As a business, they would charge $20 an hour with the tutor receiving $15 an hour.

But they have received tentative approval to begin as a school club in August with tutors receiving community service hours instead of pay and those getting tutored receiving a free service.

“We were thinking of problems in our school,” Grigoruk said. “Kids want affordable tutoring service, and they want to do it at home.”

Savko, Miroshnik and Grigoruk are working on a website where tutors and those seeking the service can register. But the actual tutoring would be on a video conferencing platform, such as Zoom.

“A lot of tutoring is expensive,” Savko said. “And it might be with a teacher they are not as comfortable with. (Working with) another student might be more comfortable.”

The service is especially needed these days with so many students

still behind from remote learning during the pandemic, Savko said.

“A lot of people cheated through the pandemic, or they just didn’t care. They didn’t have anyone to force them to do the work. They didn’t have a teacher around,” Savko said.

Savko, Miroshnik and Grigoruk are all pre-IB students and will probably do some tutoring themselves just to get the program started, Savko said.

“I’m really excited,” Grigoruk said.

“Now we’ll have the opportunity to really prepare our pitch and have everything down. And it’s in New York, which is pretty cool.”

Of the top 100 business pitches in the Southeast region, nine came from FPC’s entrepreneurship program. In addition to Peers, another FPC group advanced to the Regional Final. Ashlee Ramierez, Jasmine Williams, Makel Collins and Regan Rust advanced with their business proposal, No More Chaff, No More Cheek, a chafing stick that goes directly on your jeans to prevent friction that causes holes to rip between your thighs.

Schaefer, who is FPC’s career and technical education department chair, said 48 FPC students have received their small business certification.

“We have an articulation agreement with Daytona State College,” Schaefer said. “Students get three business credits if they pass principles of entrepreneurship or business law and management and pass the certification test.”

With more than 850,000 policies, the state-backed Citizens Property Insurance Corp. has become an 800-pound gorilla in Florida’s troubled insurance market.

But as lawmakers passed bills during a special legislative session this week to try to shore up the industry, they did not make changes designed specifically to address issues such as Citizens’ growth and premiums.

Sen. Jeff Brandes, a St. Petersburg Republican who is one of the Legislature’s most-hawkish members on bolstering the private industry, said during a meeting Monday, May 23, that lawmakers were not doing anything to deal with the “radical growth” of Citizens.

Citizens was created as an insurer of last resort but has ballooned as private companies have shed policies and raised rates to deal with financial losses. As an illustration, Citizens had 851,006 policies on April 30, up from 453,911 policies two years earlier.

Many leaders have long sought to shrink Citizens because of concerns about policyholders across the state — including those who are not Citizens customers — potentially being on the hook to help pay claims if Florida gets hit with a major hurricane or multiple hurricanes.

“The simple truth is if Citizens was a regular insurance company, we would never have let it grow as fast as it did,” Brandes said.

But Citizens is a politically sensitive issue, as many homeowners in areas such as heavily populated South Florida have few other choices for coverage.

“Floridians are not being treated equally right now,” Rep. Robin Bartleman, D-Weston, said.

Citizens President and CEO Barry Gilway in recent months has repeatedly said that Citizens charges less for coverage than private insurers, at least in part because of a state law that caps Citizens’ annual rate increases. This year that cap is 11 percent, and Citizens has asked the state Office of Insurance Regulation to approve a rate hike of nearly that amount.

Other proposals to raise Citizens’ rates and push homeowners toward the private market have run into opposition in the Legislature.

Parkview Church: $6 million expansion The church hopes to break ground in late summer on a new wing that will provide an additional 17,200 square feet of space.

BRENT WORONOFF STAFF WRITER

Parkview Church is hoping to break ground on a new wing in late summer, said Barry Peters, Parkview’s discipleship and development pastor.

The expansion project will include renovating the current space and constructing a 17,200-square-foot addition that will include a new auditorium — where the church holds its services — with 721 seats.

“Right now, we’re in the permit process,” said Peters. “The plans are done. The contractor is hired. We’d love to see building start in August or September and, the Lord willing, be done by fall of 2023.”

Renovation will include converting the current auditorium that seats 400 into a next generation space for children and teenagers. The new space will include a next gen auditorium that will seat 200, a nursery, an indoor play area and 10 breakout rooms.

The area where children and teens currently gather will be converted into a lobby, which the area was originally designed for. The renovation will allow the church to triple its next generation space to 18,000

square feet.

The new wing will include the new auditorium with upgraded audio and video technology and multipurpose rooms on the first floor.

The second floor will house an office suite and breakout rooms.

The project will also include expanded parking on the back of the property.

The outdoor basketball court will also be moved to the back of the property.

The expansion will cost $5 million, and renovating the current space will cost $1 million, Peters said. Church members have donated $1.5 million of the project through a vision initiative and have committed another $1.5 million over the next two years, Peters said. The church will finance the remaining cost.

The total cost of the initiative is $6.45 million, which includes providing $350,000 to Parkview’s LPGA campus to help purchase property to build a new independent church and

We’d love to see building start in August or September and, the Lord willing, be done by fall of 2023.”

$100,000 donated to Trinity Baptist College in Jacksonville to help fund its new academic center.

This will be Parkview Church’s third expansion since its current facility opened in 2002 at 5435 Belle Terre Parkway. The auditorium was expanded in 2011 and the lobby/ gathering room was added in 2017.

The 7.5-acre property was purchased in 1999.

The average weekly attendance for Parkview’s church services has grown to 978 from a low of 725 during the COVID year of 2020 and is approaching the 2019 high of 1,093.

The church currently has three weekly services (Saturday at 5 p.m., Sunday at 9 and 11 a.m.). Pre-COVID, it had a fourth service in the gathering room on Sunday mornings.

“We’re blessed with so many people moving here. Our guest flow is quite large,” said Peters, who is the brother of Pastor Greg Peters.

The church was founded 25 years ago.

BIZ BUZZ ADVENTHEALTH ‘TOPS OUT’ PALM COAST PARKWAY HOSPITAL AdventHealth Palm Coast Parkway has taken a significant step forward, as hospital and construction team members gathered this week to celebrate the building’s “topping out.”

Topping out is a construction tradition celebrating the installation of the final beam of a structure, signifying structural completion of a building.

“We are proud to celebrate this milestone in the building of our second Palm Coast hospital,” said Audrey Gregory, CEO of AdventHealth’s Central Florida Division – North Region.

The four-story hospital, located on the north end of the county near Bridgehaven Drive, will be approximately 158,000 square feet. It will include an emergency department with full-service imaging; five operating suites; endoscopy services; outpatient laboratory; heart catheterization labs; 20 critical care patient rooms and 80 general medical or surgical care rooms.

AdventHealth broke ground in September on the 100-bed hospital.

It is expected to open in spring 2023, bringing additional inpatient care services to the fast-growing population of Flagler County.

Plans also call for a 30,000-squarefoot medical office building to be constructed as part of this $162 million project. AdventHealth Palm Coast Parkway will bring up to 700 new jobs to the area upon completion.

AdventHealth Palm Coast Parkway is slated to open in spring 2023. HuntonBrady is serving as the architect.

CHICK-FIL-A TEAM MEMBERS RECEIVE $15,000 IN SCHOLARSHIPS Chick-fil-A Palm Coast Operator Glen Efford spent his Saturday afternoon, May 21, surprising six Chick-fil-A team members with Remarkable Futures Scholarships.

The team members were awarded checks disguised as oversized sauce containers that totaled $15,000.

The scholarship recipients were Maria Maglalang, Kale Britton, Selah Gargon, Rachel Pladdys, Alexandra Khoriakov and Mariah Siebert. This is Britton’s fourth year receiving the scholarship and Gargon’s second year.

Chick-fil-A Scholarships began when its founder, Truett Cathy, set a mayonnaise jar on his first restaurant counter to help a team member pursue his dream of a college education. Since 1970, Chick-fil-A has helped over 80,000 team members achieve remarkable futures through a total investment of $136 million in scholarships.

Efford said he is fortunate for the mark these six team members have left on his restaurant and its guests.

“We are so proud of these outstanding young people, and we’re happy to have them as a part of our Chick-fil-A Palm Coast family.” Efford said. “To be able to play a role in helping them fulfill their dreams is truly rewarding.

Each of these recipients are simply remarkable and represent the best of our youth today.”

To qualify for the scholarship, team members must be involved in the community, have an influential role within the restaurant and be recommended by senior management.

SPORTS Despite no high school team, Ty Smith is recruited to play in college The Matanzas grad and volleyball player made good on a promise he made to his late friend.

BRENT WORONOFF STAFF WRITER

Matanzas High graduate Ty Smith and his buddy Giovanne Sylvain used to mess around on the volleyball court at Parkview Church. They talked about one day playing volleyball in college.

After Sylvain was found dead in 2020, Smith’s mom, Suzanne, was afraid her son was going to give up volleyball.

“I thought it would be too painful for him to play anymore. But he looked me in the eye, and said, ‘Mom, I’m going

Smith never got the chance to play high school volleyball, but he’ll be getting the chance to play college volleyball.

to go to college and play volleyball.’”

At the time, Smith had never played organized volleyball. Matanzas — like all the other high schools in the area — does not have a boys volleyball team. The 6-foot4 Smith played basketball for the Pirates, leading the team in scoring, rebounding and blocked shots as a senior this year.

But he won’t be playing basketball in college. Smith made good on his promise to his mom and his late friend.

He recently signed a letter of intent to play volleyball at Warner University in Lake Wales.

He got the offer through sheer perseverance.

Smith would go to the park every day to practice by himself or join with others. He would watch YouTube videos to try to learn the game.

“Gio got me into it, and that was the only thing I thought about,” Smith said.

He got a fake ID so he could could play in an adult opengym volleyball league at Indian Trails Middle School.

That’s when a woman told him about the Jacksonville Juniors Volleyball Association.

He tried out in August and made the JJVA 15-18 travel team.

“I improved every practice.

“Gio got me into it, and that was the only thing I thought about.”

TY SMITH

"He's always going to have Gio by his side, in his heart.

He's the epitome of anything can happen if you put your mind to it and work hard."

JJVA celebrates Smith and other college-bound players in the club.

JJVA is an amazing organization,” Smith said.

He also had help closer to home. Matanzas girls volleyball players Ashley Grove and Senna Thayer and Thayer’s mom helped teach him about different rotations and the finer points of passing and blocking and understanding the setter’s signs.

“The height, the speed of the ball, the position on the court. There are so many balls you can hit. It took me a while to get the hang of it,” he said.

Smith said the Warner coaches saw him in January playing for JJVA in a tournament in Orlando. Eventually, they offered him a partial scholarship.

Smith is a right-side hitter, also known as an opposite hitter, considered the most versatile position on the court.

For someone who had virtually no game film to show and had been playing organized volleyball for less than a year, receiving a college offer was a long shot at best.

“He’s always going to have Gio by his side, in his heart,” Suzanne said. “He ignored every, ‘No, it’s not going to happen.’ He’s the epitome of anything can happen if you put your mind to it and work hard.”

Matanzas High School wrestlers Christina Borgmann and Saiomy Cabrera each won championships in their weight classes at Florida AAU States on May 27 at Palm Bay Magnet High School.

Borgmann won the combined 125 and 135-pound weight class in the girls high school division with five consecutive pins. Four of her pinfalls came in the matches’ first round. The rising sophomore finished eighth in the state at the FHSAA’s first girls state championships in March.

Cabrera won by two pins and a decision in her three matches to win the 135, 140 and 145-pound combined weight class in the girls division.

Three other Matanzas wrestlers finished second in their weight class in the girls’ division: Mariah Mills in the combined 105, 110 and 115-pound class, Gabrielle Proctor in the 155-pound class and Brooklyn Watt in the 190-pound class.
