Latest escape sparks new jail talk, county gets armory

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – Wednesday, the Harrison County Commissioners read into the record Resolution 27-19 approving the takeover of the SSG George J. Conaway U.S. Army Reserve Center on U.S. 250 in Cadiz.

Commissioner Don Bethel commented after Commissioner Dale Norris read the resolution stating issues needed taken care of have now been addressed and what was next was what he called “the obvious,” which would involve a study sometime in the near future.

That study is to determine, “feasibility, size, location, cost, and potential funding sources for a proposed new facility for the jail, Sheriff’s Office, and 911 Center…” according to the resolution. Bethel got into more depth as in how many jail cells, beds and how

much of the building needs to be used for such purposes.

“We know it can be retrofitted for the sheriff’s office, we know it can be the 911 Center, we do not know how much of that building can be retrofitted for an actual jail, and the cost of that," Bethel explained.

Bethel stated they want to make sure before something like this is done that they can afford to operate the building before it is operational and the money that comes along with the project.

“Thinking about Harrison County, anybody else for that matter, no one really wants to pay any… additional money out of their pockets to pay to make the life of a criminal a little bit more comfortable,” Bethel stated.

He also acknowledged that the current jail has outlived its use and hopes that “all the numbers comes together," in order for the sheriff’s office to make the move.

Commissioner Paul Coffland spoke briefly stating he was happy the process they needed to follow had been completed to bring the county to this point. When asked if the feasibility of renovating the current facility would also be taken into consideration, Bethel stated everything would be taken into consideration.

When asked about the recent escape by inmate Jason Groff, Bethel stated it was an “unfair question for us.” He said any questions regarding those answers should be directed to the sheriff. He added though, the current facility’s design could have been a factor but until they had all the details, it would be unfair to lay the blame on anyone.

“But there’s no question that is a department issue and that question needs to be directed to the sheriff,” Bethel stated. Coffland also said it would be unfair to comment on something he has no knowledge of

regarding how the jail is operated.

Sheriff Joe Myers did comment when later contacted by stating the escape was “tragic” but complained that he is under-manned and again, as he’s been

saying for the past few years at least, he needs a new jail facility and also commented on the design of the current building as a problem.

New Athens talks dilapidated housing

1930s erea homemade telescope at Custer Museum James T. Thompson, Harrison County Veterans Service officer, shows a section of a homemade telescope that was built in the 1930s by Clifford Arbaugh. It has an eye piece that is located in the front and is over 6 feet long. This is now stored in the downstairs section of the Custer Museum in New Rumley. The base is to be sent away for service and it will be put on display. The Custer Museum has a M1892 field trumpet bugle that plays in the key of G and was used by the Quarter Master in 1892; old-time Custer trading cards; a U.S. flag with the signatures of Ulysses Grant, Captain Miles, Gen. Custer, and many generals super imposed on it; models of the home of the Custer family; many photos of the general, books on his exploits and Army uniforms.

NEW ATHENS – Council talked at length Tuesday night during their regular meeting about dilapidated properties just as each community has been dealing with for years and now New Athens is a part of that group. The village has touched on the issue in past meetings but this time they spent considerable time on the issue regarding particular properties, ordinances, fines and what other towns are doing to remedy the problem.

Mayor Joe Petro noted one community using a “land grant” and touched on the procedure of tearing houses down via the court system.

“You know everybody in here keeps their property up, and I don’t think anybody would want any of these properties we’re speaking about setting beside their house,” council member Mark Arnold explained. “… You know, we’ve got to look at the betterment here, six houses in a little town like this makes the whole place look bad.”

Village Solicitor Travis Collins stated the village could obtain certain houses via foreclosures, as an example but then asked what is the village going to do next. “Are you going to pay someone to tear it down?” Arnold said the village could take the property over then worry about what to do afterwards.

“You know, a lot of things happen in this town that don’t always have to go on the record,” Arnold said then adding that he understands the burning of houses is not permitted any longer where Collins jumped in stating there’s a reason why the county does not want to get involved in these matters.

“The county doesn’t want to do crap,” Arnold said.

Collins explained that it’s a losing proposition as one reason then added that he would think some people

Cadiz seeks another police officer, changes pay scale

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – Police Chief Ryan McCann announced at last Thursday’s council meeting that officer Matt Huffman was resigning in order to join the Harrison County Sheriff’s Office. McCann told council he’d already spoken to Clerk Treasurer Amy Ossman and Village Administrator Ted Andrzedrewski regarding pay raises for his officers in order to stay competitive with other agencies.

“I did receive a resignation letter from Matt Huffman…he’s moving on to the Harrison County Sheriff’s office,” McCann told council. When asked, McCann said sheriff’s deputies make $21-plus per hour with insurance included and added that around four

NEWS-HERALD

officers have left his department in the past several years, though not all to the sheriff’s office.

Discussion moved on to whether council needed to approve the adjusted pay scales after Council member Thomas Crawshaw stated pay raises were “already in the budget.”

“These raises have already, are in his budget, it’s been approved by our yearly budget…” Some thought no approvals were needed since it was included in the budget but it was agreed that a resolution was necessary for the “adjusted pay scales.”

Council member Chace Smith, who formerly worked in the Harrison County juvenile probation department, touched on surrounding state jobs that pay better, which he said was inevitable that Cadiz is more than likely going to

lose a person to them.

“And we can’t compete,” council member Terry Capers said with Smith in agreement. “But at the same time I was telling the chief (McCann) in general, where my tune has changed a little bit is I think you know, we can’t offer as much as some nor should we because we’re not those villages and municipalities so, we also have to have I think a little respect for our patrolmen…and try to keep some good talent and good officers.”

Smith said he was surprised after looking into surrounding jurisdictions and found that “we were pretty low,” in comparison. But he also said other jurisdictions were surprised at the amount of officers Cadiz employs, as well.

“It’s beneficial for us, it’s a good thing

at times,” Smith said.

Andrzedrewski said everything had been taken into consideration when doing the budget after Capers had asked if the total impact of raises and insurance were considered.

Another discussion turned to officers who have put in longer years than recent ones, which council member Mike McPeak touched on.

“Years of service to me should be included…” McPeak told council.

Council member John Vermillion’s statement, that the only way to receive a raise now would be to move up in rank or if someone retires, was confirmed by council and McCann.

Crawshaw’s motion for Village Solicitor Costa D. Mastros for drawing up a new pay scale was approved.

Another motion to replace officer

Huffman while keeping the police force at nine officers was also approved.

When the topic of Emergency Services came up, Capers said their last meeting was interrupted by an emergency call and the firefighters there had to leave, cancelling the meeting.

But Capers wanted to thank the firefighters for their work, which includes all hours of the day and night.

“Not only do they work their eighthour jobs but during the meeting they got called out and none of them got home till midnight again last night,” Capers explained. “So, these guys go above and beyond like every single day.

So I just wanted to say thank you.” And it was noted, they work for no pay, as volunteer fire departments in Harrison County do, except for Hopedale who now pays some firefighters via a grant.

Streets, water plant upgrade discussed at Cadiz meeting

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – Last Thursday, Village Administrator Ted Andrzedrewski reported on a meeting he and several council members recently had with residents of the three street project concerning Spring, Muskingum and Maplewood Streets. He said Mannik Smith and engineers also attended the meeting that covered the Issue 2 project.

“I think it went well,” Andrzedrewski said, “they only had about six residents but they asked good questions. I think they understand what we’re doing…” He said information pamphlets were available for residents in attendance to take

back to the neighborhood for sharing the information.

Andrzedrewski’s message to the residents was to keep the “long view” of the project in mind with inconveniences lasting anywhere from eight to 12 weeks but to know that they will have streets that will last for years.

“The drainage is going to be vastly improved on those three streets,” he stated. Council members Terry Capers and John Vermillion who attended, also agreed the meeting went very well and those residents understood what the project was about.

“It was a nice turnout,” Capers told council. “We had a lot of residents come out…”

Andrzedrewski said from his

experience, it’s very helpful the residents know what is going on and who they can contact for questions, as they were provided that information at the meeting.

Also, Andrzedrewski said two responses to the RFQ sent out for engineering services for the village’s water plant upgrade were received. Hull Associates and CT Consultants were the two who submitted responses and Andrzedrewski spoke highly of the two.

“I will do this and have the recommendation to council by the next meeting because we need to get going on this,” Andrzedrewski explained referring to his meeting with the two companies and choosing the one who will do the work.

He said the engineering plans

must be submitted and reviewed by the EPA no later than Oct. 31. He said bidding would then commence in during the first two months of next year followed by the actual construction.

Andrzedrewski said the upgrades would take approximately nine to 12 months. He said they were in good shape regarding the schedule for the upgrades that will be done in order to service the power plant.

“The Oct. 31 deadline is so we get the $1.3 million forgiven, we don’t meet that deadline we don’t get the money,” he reminded council. He added both engineering firms that responded to the RFQ informed him they could meet that

deadline.

Andrzedrewski also touched on applicants, which were 12 in total, to replace the retiring Water & Sewer Clerk, Mary Banks. He said between Clerk Treasurer Amy Ossman, Banks and himself, Alysia Capers surfaced as the one they picked as her replacement.

“She has the most experience, she has done collections, she has talked with customers repeatedly,” Andrzedrewski explained. “Very capable lady [and] I think she’ll fit in with our staff, that was another thing we looked at.” And at Andrzedrewski’s request council approved her hiring with council member Capers abstaining, as Alysia being his wife. Ossman stated she would

start out at $12 per hour and reach $13 per hour after one year, which she said was under what Banks now earns.

Andrzedrewski said Alysia was agreeable to those terms.

Council then approved of the pay scale because it was not in the village’s pay scale, according to Ossman. Council member Capers again, abstained from voting.

Andrzedrewski also touched on property maintenance issues where letters have been sent out the past two weeks and tagged with a red violation card for 10 houses.

“The good news is that most have responded to the letter and have cut the grass and cleaned up the property,” he wrote in his report.

Toker debunks Antill case rumors

By BONNIE HIGGINS NH Contributer

CADIZ—In 2017, there were 88,089 missing persons nationwide. In December of that year, Shawn Antill became one of them. Mysteries of that night still loom almost two years later as the case file lays open on Harrison County Sheriff’s Detective Toker’s desk. “We want to let the public know that this is not something that we have shelved or put by the wayside. Since Mr. Antill has gone missing, there has barely been a week gone by that we haven’t been conducting interviews, searching places, and thoroughly investigating tips.”

The Sheriff’s department feels there is a public misconception about the authority’s current level of involvement in the case.

“Playing it as close to the vest as we have is maybe giving people the wrong impression that we haven’t carried out the investigation to the thorough extent that we have in reality.”

Toker said rumors continue to spread over Facebook and other social media platforms, certain reoccurring ones surrounding a local group of known drug users. Numerous polygraphs, studies of cell phone records, and even flight record analyses confirm whereabouts of that night and the fact that nobody in the group knew Antill. The local group has been determined to be unrelated to the case.

Toker continued, “We take every tip very seriously because, usually where there is smoke, there is fire. But a lot of times in this certain group of individuals stories start to get street cred or to impress people.”

Local authorities have searched by airplane, by helicopter, by foot, and even with help from the Wheeling Fire Department’s dive team.

They have thoroughly investigated all tips and the surrounding area of the crash.

One thing they cannot account for, however, is the active mine near the crash site. Toker noted

that each day investigators went to the site in January and February of 2017, the mine looked significantly different due to all of the earth being moved.

So what do we know?

According to investigators, Shawn Antill went missing on Dec. 23, 2017. He was the passenger in Preston Yates’ car, and that the two, high on meth, pulled onto an access road behind the county home because they mistakenly felt the police were chasing them. The two crashed into a fence and fled the car in opposite directions, one to be found and the other to be lost to this day.

Antill’s family reported him missing eight days later, possibly due to the nature of his traveling job and his absence over the Christmas holiday.

Toker closed the interview stating, “What I can say is that this is an open case, and it will remain open until we find him—no matter where he is or what the situation is.”

Pastor Quillen spoke on the church being more than a building. Following the services, everyone went downstairs for a covered dish dinner and enjoyed all the dishes, deserts and anniversary cake, and to catch

up with old friends and hear stories from the past.

Sadly, Pastor Dave will be leaving and going on to another charge. He and his family were enjoyed by the congregation and they liked watching him grow as a minister, husband, and father.

They all look forward to continuing on serving the community beside their new pastor.

Eikleberry requests ORAS, waives speedy trial

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – The 77 year-old Shadyside man charged with rape in the first degree of a person under the age of 12, Robert Eikleberry, appeared in Harrison County Common Pleas court early Tuesday afternoon, only to see another hearing to be set for a later date.

After a pre-trial conference, Eikleberry’s attorney James Nicholson waived his client’s right to a speedy trial which Judge T. Shawn Hervey later repeated. Hervey had Eikleberry fitted with a listening headset to make sure he heard the court proceedings as Hervey went over the particulars.

Hervey also announced that Eikleberry had requested an Ohio Risk Assessment (ORAS),

which led to the resetting of the defendant’s case to a July 9 hearing set for 11:30 a.m.

Hervey stated that a July 23 trial date would remain in place pending the proceedings leading up to that date.

Regarding a defendant in a case from the distant past, Christina Reed, who was sentenced in 2013 for a slew of charges including rape (felony one), gross sexual imposition,

child endangerment, pandering obscenity and illegal use of a minor with nudity, was back in court on the state’s motion to revoke her Community Based Control (CBC) sanctions.

Judge Linton Lewis sat in for Judge Hervey and instructed the defendant on her rights. When he asked her if she wished to deny or admit the violation she denied admitting of any violations.

Reed appeared without representation and stated she could not afford her own attorney. Assistant Prosecutor Jeffrey Bruzzese told the court he felt a monetary bond was appropriate and Judge Lewis later followed with an amount of $10,000.

Bruzzese added that Reed still had 18 months of prison time held in reserve and stated that, “given the nature of the

violations, which we are taking very seriously we think that it’s [a] likelihood that Miss Reed may end up incarcerated once again for these violations…”

Bruzzese later explained that included in the alleged violations were her being in contact with “victims” and Internet access that was not authorized. Reed was taken into custody until she meets the 10 percent minimum.

Two defendants, Robert Eikleberry (left photo) of Shadyside and Christina Reed of Jewett appeared in Common Pleas court Tuesday. Reed is facing the revocation of her CBC sanctions after alleged violations in connection with a 2012 case for a slew of sex charges including rape in the first degree. Eikleberry is also facing rape in the first degree and requested an ORAS where he is expected back in court July 9.

Waterlines, road repair, and LMI census on the horizon in Scio

By BONNIE HIGGINS NH Contributor

SCIO—Wednesday’s meeting began with the pledge to the American flag and a complaint from Ernie Bradley. He proposed that Allensworth Drive is much overdue for patching, saying, “The road is like a washboard.” Mayor Michelle Carpenter explained the last time workers were fixing the road, residents seemed frustrated and sped through the area, resulting in multiple close calls for the workers. Bradley

ESCAPE

From PG | 1 He said, as he has in the past that a new facility is needed where not only enough male prisoners could be housed with no overflow being transferred at the county’s cost, but also to house female prisoners, as they currently cannot. As of now, the current facility holds just eight where it costs to deliver the overflow prisoners to neighboring counties. He added it’s not always an easy transition either when requesting other counties to take Harrison’s prisoners.

Myers also pointed out regarding the possibility of renovating the current building, stating that with more floors means more people needed to employ to watch the prisoners.

And to note, the armory is all on the ground floor where Myers

NEW ATHENS From PG | 1

would be willing to turn over their abandoned houses.

“I say fine them and that will stop it,” Arnold said of always having to go to certain homeowners each year reminding them to mow their lawns, for example. Then he turned to other villages and the problems they share with New Athens.

“Some of these villages ought to be ashamed,” he said speaking to Collins. “We have a haven compared to some of these villages.” He continued by stating the cost of tearing houses down ends up coming back on the taxpayer. Petro explained the cost and how many departments, such as the EPA, that need to get involved if the county wants to do it. He said

replied that a notice for the residents might solve that problem. Carpenter agreed to keep it in mind. Village Administrator Tubaugh mentioned later in the meeting that Phase II of the Capital Improvement Projects involves waterlines being laid in that area, so fixing the roads now would be a waste to dig them up in the coming months.

On the topic of water, The WCCR (Water Consumer Confidence Report) is available online at www.villageofscio.com and posted in the post office.

There will be hydrant flushings taking place now through October. “You’ll notice that instead of taking 15-20 minutes,” said Tubaugh, “ours are taking 3-5.” This is a positive, as the action they have taken to improve hydrant function is working.

The intersection of SR646 and East College Street is the site of a major drainage issue. One council member said she could not drive her car through the intersection as the water is too deep. Harrison County ODOT has agreed to supply manpower

would like to see an 80-bed facility. He said a recent study by DLZ Engineering of Indiana deemed the armory fit for a jail and doesn’t agree with the study the commissioners are going forward with, stating costs.

Bethel called the DLZ study “very basic” but no information on how they came up with their numbers, though he did acknowledge that the DLZ report was done for free. In that study provided by Myers, it does recommend 80 beds with specialized housing, kitchen, laundry and a host of other amenities including future expansion if needed. The total estimated bill DLZ listed was $10,350,000 with “site and building” listed at $8,900,000 as part of the total.

As for Groff, the sentiment within the sheriff ’s office is that his escape was well planned where he possibly had help from other prisoners.

According to Myers, it was a false claim of some water

leakage in the cell area that lured the lone commanding officer on duty after he had come in from garbage duty assisted by a trustee.

Groff was arrested in February and had already received probation for aggravated possession of drugs when he violated his probation the following month. He was arrested on May 31 and was to appear this week for a motion to revoke his probation.

The red Cadiz Village Street Department truck Groff is suspected of stealing has also not been found. It has no plates on it and has a white back to it. Equipment Operator Larry Ludwig stated that the vehicles normally don’t have keys left in them but this one did. They were also waiting on new plates as the old one was ripped off after a mishap.

The truck also is missing the front, left head light.

there weren’t many houses that don’t have asbestos in them, which leads to big costs.

“And that’s why the county doesn’t want to get involved because it’s big bucks,” Petro stated. “That’s why counties turn a blind eye they don’t want to hear it, because they know what is going to happen if they get involved, it’s going to cost them…”

Commissioner Paul Coffland when contacted later in the week stated that it was the village’s jurisdiction and there wasn’t much that could be done.

He said through CDBG funds houses could be razed.

“I have been looking into a Land Bank, which could assist but not quite there yet,” he stated.

Both Collins and Arnold couldn’t understand why people let their properties get out of hand or, just walk away from

them in the first place. Arnold again brought up the issue of fining people under an ordinance as long as the procedure is followed through the court system.

Also, Petro commented briefly on the water tank work that became mandatory for the village to complete on the orders of the EPA. The overflow pipe had been 32 feet high, but the village was ordered to bring it down just a few feet above the ground, which was done. Petro, in a prepared statement sent thanks for the job done, which needed to be completed by June 1.

“Mr. Greg Guthrie, owner of Regional Welding Services LLC, performed the welding and fabrication on the water tower as per the specifications set forth by the Ohio EPA. He did an outstanding job.”

and oversight if the village foots the bill for all associated materials costs and some labor.

Council members noted the road was not engineered for heavy loads and voiced frustration over the toll truck traffic was taking on their budget.

On budgets, last year 52 percent of Scio residents qualified as LMI (low-moderate income), according to the census. That qualified Scio to apply for specific grants. The government recently changed the requirements, and to apply

for those grants now, 57 percent of Scio’s residents must fall under that category. Individual council members felt that numbers might be higher this year, as oil and gas activity in the community has decreased. The council must apply to begin the process for another LMI census, which they plan to do.

The village ordered a finish mower for their large tractor, costing around $3,500, made a motion to sell their generator for $500, and discussed potential purchases from the school auction. They also agreed

to Tubaugh’s request to hire a young man part-time who had previously worked for them through the community service program. “He’s a worker, alright. He’s been a great help to us,” said Tubaugh.

Bradley, the Scio resident who attended the meeting, also announced that his maintenance man found some receipts belonging to the village of Scio among the litter on his street. He presented the trash bag to the council without further discussion.

By Ruby Foutz One wouldn't think that just paving a parking lot would make such a difference in appearance but it sure does. If you get a chance just drive by the Harrison Community Hospital and you will see a difference. It just looks neat, clean and beautiful. Or, you could stop and have lunch in the cafeteria. The grounds looks neat, clean and beautiful. Keep up the good work.

Congratulations to Pastor Ed Kovacik who will be delivering God's Word full time at Scott Memorial Methodist Church, Cadiz. God bless you, Ed and best wishes.

All 'bout Christ church would like to leave you with a quote from Rev. Billy Graham, whom I loved and miss, "Faith in Christ is also voluntary. A person cannot be coerced, bribed, or tricked into trusting Jesus. God will not force His way into your life. The Holy Spirit will do everything possible to disturb you, draw you, love you --but finally it is your personal decision." Do you have the Holy Spirit?

Continue to learn His words.

Love & prayers. God bless you all, Rev. Dr. Ruby Foutz, 1740-946-2925.

Nationals shake off loss, defeat Phillies 12 - 3, defeat Rangers 14 - 5

By ED BANKS

NH Sports Writer

HOPEDALE - Scoring 12 runs in the first three innings, had the Hopedale Nationals defeating the cross-town Phillies, in Hopedale on Monday night. A recent loss in Mount Pleasant claimed the National’s undefeated record, and redemption for the team came in the form of a 12 - 3 showing.

Now 16 - 1 on the season, the Nationals will try to hold on to their winning ways, as playoffs are now on the horizon. The Phillies also have a winning record at 10 - 6, and will also be looking to finish the regular season on a high note.

On offense for the Nationals Tucker Snider walked twice, and had a three-run double, Cain

Dunkle drew a pair of walks, Caleb Shaw drew two walks, Hunter Fulton singled and a walk, Tucker Snider walked twice and had a three-run triple, Brady Elliott walked, Anthony Pelegreen got plunked and walked, Dillon Walters a single and a walk and Owen Wilson walked.

On Wednesday night the Nationals traveled to East Springfield to take on the Rangers. Following four innings of jousting from the mound in a low scoring opening, Hopedale broke loose and showed why they were now 17 1. They would close the contest with seven runs in the late innings to claim the contest by a score of 14 - 5.

Tucker Snyder started on the mound for the Nationals and kept things close prior to the

breakaway frames. The Rangers had a chance to do some damage in the fourth with the bags loaded and a long fly ball to left. That opportunity would soon dissipate when a swift and sure-handed Hunter Fulton ran down the rocket and snagged it like an All-Pro 7-spot.

Some of the highlights on offense include a hit by Brady Elliott that scored a run and a late inning three-run double, Anthony Pelegreen sacrificed on a fielder’s choice to spring an RBI and also singled for a second run, Shaw had a one run single, Hunter Fulton singled, stole second and third and Allison shoved him home for an RBI. Tournament draw is Sunday June 16, with the majors division tournament beginning on Saturday, June 22.

HOPEDALE Gage Stoneking went five innings and Hunter Snyder came on to finish a 2 - 1 win for the Hopedale Comets over visiting Brilliant on Tuesday Night.

Hopedale would score a run in both the first and third innings, while the Pirates scored in their share of the sixth, on the way to the victory.

The game was a classic pitching duel that had both teams doing their best to get runners in scoring position.

During Stone King’s shift on the hill, he hurled 10 strike outs, gave up but one hit and only two free passes. Snyder was just as stingy during his closing act, as he retired the side with two strikeouts and an assist from Kolton Mizer when he snagged a hard-hit ball at first base. At the plate for the Comets, the game saving run came in the third, when Snyder, who went one for two, doubled

game. During those years she was All-OVAC, All Eastern District and All-Buckeye 8 for each of the four seasons. As a senior she batted .410, had 34 hits, and batted in 14 runs.

In her 83 times at bat she was never fanned. Her on-base mark was .485 and she holds a hitting percentage of .446. Her career batting average was .383. She was voted to Division III AllOhio second squad.

FREEPORT– Opening the Lakeland Academy meeting Tuesday was Treasurer Todd Johnson stating their cash flow for the month of May came in as expected and doesn’t foresee many changes for June. Johnson was brief in his summation but informed the board a grant was received in May for $13,779.

He added that after receiving several federal grants that that side of their income “pretty much wrapped up all of our federal grants.”

He said the federal grants for the year have been used up and they came in at around $20,000, which he said was more than what they had projected. He said expenditures for May were on target but June may be a little under the projection.

“But for the year right now, we’re projecting to be about $20,000 under budget… ” he said adding that it came to $20,000 over on revenue but $20,000 under on expenditures with $40,000 “to the positive.”

Johnson said for the year, they were looking at approximately $200,000 with the only negative in that expenditures would exceed revenues at around $56,000.

“But again, a very healthy cash balance,” Johnson stated via

speakerphone.

Superintendent Scot Bardall then asked Johnson about a “Wellness Grant” that was expected to be announced by the end of June, which would be worth $30,000. Johnson stated there hasn’t been any new movement, and the budget was still hung up in the Senate.

The board also approved the changing of who does their accounting, which had been their sponsor, North Central Ohio Educational Service Center (NCOESC), to Jefferson County ESC. “It’s closer, and it’s cheaper and we’ve talked about this account over the course of the last couple of years,” Bardall explained. He said the agreement was for three years at an annual cost of $24,000 per year.

Other items addressed by Bardall were: - 40 summer hours were approved for Ashley Stine.

- Corinna Stine was approved for a raise to $15 per hour.

- Ashley Stine approved as custodian for the 2019-20 school year.

- An approval was made to both Taylor Smith and Tricia Bardall at $250 for summer reading camp, “paid for by Gulfport.” Bardall said stipends would be received for materials.

Cheri Patterson recommended for 80 hours of the 2019-20 school year.

- Taylor Smith as intervention specialist at $5,000 for the 2019-20 school year.

- Chuck Lewis as biology instructor at $20 per hour, which is not to exceed 350 hours for the 2019-20 school year.

Also, Allie Kenney was named student of the month and Bardall commended her for her performance as a new student.

Bardall also touched on the grad rate, which was nine out of the last nine. He said a few years ago two students quit, which he said hurts them because of the small school they are. He said they may look at incorporating an intervention aid who will target certain students “to try to show growth.” Board member Joyce Klingler asked when the new playground equipment would be in and was told it would be by the new school year.

When asked if the new Harrison Hills school opening this August would affect Lakeland’s numbers, Bardall said if there would be an impact and expected the biggest hit “will come this year.” Bardall then explained that one of the reasons their students have shown such improvement is the ratio of teacher to student where their classrooms are much smaller. He called the individual attention the big reason for the improved test scores.

Tips to Outsmart Bugs in Your Home Beat the heat and the high energy bills (StatePoint) If you have bugs in your home -- as many households do and the majority worry about - there may be good reasons for this. Insects are resilient, strategic and way smarter than you may realize.

But before dealing with insect invasions, it’s helpful to understand what you’re up against.

These surprising bug facts can help you better understand common opponents: • Cockroaches have the capacity to memorize and learn -- and they may just use those smarts to remember the layout and contents of your kitchen, including hiding spaces! But even without their heads, cockroaches are fairly formidable -- decapitated, they can survive for weeks.

• Once an ant knows where food is located, it’ll leave a scented trail to guide others to the source. Ants help each other out in other ways,

too. Certain ant species have been observed linking their bodies together to build ladders, chains, walls and even rafts that float in water.

• If your fly-swatting skills leave something to be desired, don’t feel bad. Flies can detect danger from all angles and can react four times faster than humans.

Ninety-three percent of respondents said that they’re concerned with having bugs inside their home in a recent survey conducted by Zevo -- a maker of bug killer sprays that are safe for use around people and pets when used as directed.

Survey respondents also said they see more bugs in their homes as the weather warms. In another recent survey, more than eighty-five percent of people expressed some level of safety concern with using traditional insecticide sprays inside the home.

According to experts, you don’t have to trade one worry (bugs) for another (traditional bug sprays).

So how should you deal with creeping, crawling and stinging invaders? Take a fresh approach to home insect control that you can feel good about with these safe extermination tips: • Keep common entry points like doors, windows and garages closed. Need a cross-breeze? Install screens on doors and windows.

• Seal cracks around window and door frames, which are both entry points and hiding spaces for bugs.

• Don’t stack firewood or scrap wood next to your house -- bugs love these havens.

• Avoid leaving food around after meals. Make a habit of prompt clean-ups.

• For bugs you see, use a spray that doesn’t contain harsh chemicals, such as Zevo Instant Action Spray. Its active ingredients

are essential oils that target nerve receptors active only in insects, so you (and your pets) don’t need to leave the room after spraying, as you would with traditional insecticide. Just spray on the roach, ant, fly, wasp or other pesky bug, and wipe up after use.

• For the bugs you don’t see, use chemical-free traps in areas heavily trafficked by bugs. Those from Zevo, which plug into outlets around the home, use multispectrum light technology and a body heat attractant that mimic nature’s most primal powers of attraction. Try to reduce competing light around the traps.

Though they work 24/7, flying insects will find the traps especially enticing at night.

Bugs are smart, but with some new strategies, you can safely outsmart them.

More than half of Americans are unprepared for natural disasters: Are you?

(StatePoint) Only 39 percent of respondents in a FEMA survey say they have developed an emergency plan and discussed it with their households.

When a natural disaster strikes, moving your family to immediate safety is always the top priority, which means there is often little time to think about the financial details that can make the recovery process go smoothly. That’s why it’s crucial to be proactive and prepared for whatever comes your way.

“Disasters occur during every season and on all different scales,” says Rullah Price, senior vice president and community outreach director, Wells Fargo Home Lending. “That is why being prepared is so critical in today’s environment.”

Committed to helping its customers impacted by all types of natural disasters, Wells Fargo is offering the following tips, to help plan in advance for worst-case scenarios: • Save important financial documents, such as birth and marriage certificates, wills, deeds, tax returns, insurance policies and

stock and bond certificates, on a thumb drive. These records are often needed for tax and insurance purposes.

• Make a visual or written record of your possessions, including cars, boats and recreational vehicles. Or, use an inventory booklet and make a simple list.

• Photograph your home exterior, including landscaping, making special note of any improvements, such as a patio, fencing or outbuildings, as these may increase property value.

• Consider setting up online banking, mobile banking, bill pay and electronic account alerts. This will help you stay on top of your accounts and bills if you’re displaced from your home.

• Lastly, have cash or an emergency fund. A disaster can shut down local ATMs and banks.

After a disaster, you may need cash for the first few days, or even several weeks.

It is also important to know that when a disaster is approaching, many financial institutions will send updates. This will help pave the way for a speedy recovery. For example, once Wells Fargo is aware

of a pending disaster, the bank begins communicating immediately with customers who might be impacted, using numerous virtual channels, such as email, text, ATMs and social media -- to alert them where to call for information and assistance should they suffer sustained damage.

After a disaster, wait until it’s safe to return to your property. Then, assess for damage, including your automobiles. Call your lender and insurance company to file a claim as soon as possible if you have

H

(NAPS)—Did you know that the average household spends $2,000 a year on utility bills, with nearly half going to cooling and heating the home? The U.S. EPA’s ENERGY STAR Program offers resources to help you save energy, save money and protect the climate—all while beating the heat this summer.

Biggest bang for your buck—seal and insulate: You could save up to $200 a year!

Sealing air leaks around your house and adding insulation can help make your home more comfortable and energy efficient.

Level up your energy savings with your HVAC: Check your system’s air filters. A dirty air filter will make the system work harder to keep you cool, wasting energy. They should be inspected once a month

sustained damages. It is also helpful to know in advance if and what resources your financial institutions provide. For example, Wells Fargo customers -including those with home mortgages, home equities and auto loans -- can contact 800-TOWELLS or visit wellsfargo.com/recovery.

Don’t wait until disaster is at your doorstep to plan. Preparation today can pave the way for a smoother financial recovery process in the wake of a natural disaster or emergency scenario.

He has worked with several School of Bright Promise students and will continue this fall. The pupils will spend several days a week in the library learning such topics as Internet safety and using the keyboard and mouse.

“Hopefully we will get into Microsoft Office, Word, PowerPoint and Excel. I’d like to at least introduce them to it.”

Har. Co. Fair royalty selected

By ESTHER MCCOY NH Contributer

CADIZ - The location, size of the grounds, exhibits, amusements, livestock entries and dates have changed since the Harrison County Fair got its start in 1847 at Georgetown in Shortcreek Township, but the enthusiasm for the event that has not.

Building named in honor of late Rupert Beetham

By BONNIE HIGGINS NH Contributer

Cameras snapped on the square earlier this week as Shelley Coffelt, owner of the newly named Beetham Building, presented Bonnie Beetham and granddaughter Ruby with a plaque.

Bonnie’s husband, the late attorney Rupert Beetham, passed on in April of 2016. He served Cadiz since 1972 and practiced in that building since 2002. “Rupe made a difference.

When there is something special

like this building and someone was in the community for a long time, I feel they should not go unrecognized,” Coffelt said.

Beetham graduated from Cadiz high school and went on to receive his undergraduate and Juris doctorate cum laude from the Ohio State University. He passed the bar exam with the second highest score in the state and worked as an Assistant Attorney General for Ohio before moving back home to Cadiz in 1972, where he joined his family law practice. “He never wanted to go anywhere else,” mentioned Bonnie, “He

loved this place.”

Beetham served Harrison county in many ways: as Assistant Harrison County Prosecutor, Acting Harrison County Court Judge, and Solicitor of the Villages of Cadiz and Scio. Outside of his career, he was active in many community service and improvement organizations, coaching positions, and church.

“He was a good man,” said Bonnie, “He always said he could look himself in the mirror each morning and know he was doing right by his clients.”

Pictured left to right: Beetham granddaughter, Ruby, Bonnie Beetham, and Shelley Coffelt in front of the newly named building.

Job & Family Services gets commissioner’s approval for programs

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – Wednesday, Deb Knight of the Harrison County Jobs & Family Services (HCJFS) spoke of a public hearing regarding their Title 20 plan, a social service block grant, she told the board of Harrison County Commissioners at their weekly meeting.

“Every two years we have to write a plan on how we’re going to spend the money,” Knight explained. She then ran down the projected use of the funds where she would send it to the state “today” with the commissioner’s signatures.

Some of those spending plans included information on referral services, protected services for both adults and children as well as $30,000 for residential treatment services, “if need be.” Other amounts would be for adoption, case management for a special services unit, counseling and an additional $25,000 for foster care and $3,000 for

transportation.

Knight stated she would like a program, which she set aside $15,000 for working with the juvenile court system for “youth who are too young for juvenile court.”

“We see a lot of kids who are about 10 years old who are unruly or are committing crimes that juvenile court really can’t deal with because of their age,” Knight explained. She said she hopes the program could serve these individuals to help them prevent reaching juvenile court “once they are old enough because it seems like it’s a growing problem.”

She said the total plan comes to $158,000 but there is no cost to the county taxpayers. She said it would be from the Title 20 funds and that this is just a plan for how they would like to spend that money.

“We don’t know at this point what our allocation will be but this is just a plan at this point,” she told the board. “…At no cost to the county, this is just our plan.”

Knight had one other matter

to introduce before the board describing it as, “new funding for a kinship childcare program.” She said the program was to be a part of their plan.

She said it was for relatives who are raising children and are working could then apply for the program.

“And we will reimburse them up to $500 a month, per child for childcare costs, if they’re working,” She explained. She described it as a big help for kinship providers who are raising one of their own, such as an aunt, uncle or a cousin for example, who are working.

“We don’t get involved in who the childcare provider is at all,” she told the board, “they just submit their invoice from a provider, their work schedule and we reimburse them. So we’d really like to get some people involved.”

Commissioner, Don Bethel called this a, “step in the right direction.”

What followed was the approval of five resolutions with the first three dealing with modifying speed limits. The

FCFC Eyes Goals to Aid Community STEUBENVILLE-The Family and Children First Council is looking at ways to better assist the community and began brainstorming ideas at a recent meeting.

About 20 people representing local agencies and organizations met at the Kenneth D. Simeral Building in Steubenville on June 7 to review issues which would be included in the council’s shared plan for 2019 and 2020. Linda Trushel, organization leader and program director for Help Me Grow in a four-county area, said members had to work on a new list of issues to target.

“As a council, we have to come up with a shared plan,” she said. “We had a shared plan for 2018-19 and I feel like we’ve completed those goals.”

Those efforts focused on children exposed to severe trauma, substance abuse and helping children out of foster care or who are homeless find lodging. In response, the council incorporated trauma-informed care to those children in need; provided information on drug treatment in local hospitals and at health fairs; and created a housing list as a resource to help shelter the homeless.

Trushel said she gathered input and crafted 16 categories for the new list of goals, touching upon a few of them at the latest session.

Ideas included assisting grandparents and relatives raising children through support and

education; parent training for those who have children ages 4 and older; and providing services in rural areas. During discussion, council members mentioned that some services were available for family members rearing children, such as a peer support group through the Family Recovery Center, the Kinship Caregiver program at the Department of Job and Family Services, WIC and Cribs for Kids through the county health department and parental training at Coleman Professional Services.

“They have early intervention at [the Jefferson County Board of Developmental Disabilities] and when they go to preschool, they work with the teachers and BDD,” Trushel continued.

Kristy Price, chief officer of Coleman Professional Services, added that her agency could perform assessments and make referrals for resources but she is also looking at in-home services.

Other suggestions included parent coaches through the county DJFS and PAX Tools facilitators speaking to parents.

Trushel also asked members to ponder agencies that could provide support for rural areas, adding that transportation was another obstacle to consider. Dr. Chuck Kokiko, superintendent of the Jefferson County Educational Service Center, said JCESC was seeking up to $575,000 in distance learning grant funding for the ESC, FCFC and county juvenile

court that could provide technology to minimize travel and help service clients.

Meanwhile, the group heard from Bobbyjon Bauman, director of the Ohio Valley Youth Network, who described how the program has benefitted area children.

Bauman said he longed to provide opportunities for youth and make a positive impact in Jefferson County. The network was soon formed and also includes area churches, social organizations, educational leaders and law enforcement.

“When I came here six years ago, I wanted to be a catalyst for change in the Steubenville area,” he said.

Since then, he has worked with districts to establish Fellowship of Christian Athletes organizations in schools. The network has also sponsored speakers such as former Major League Baseball player Darryl Strawberry; held youth rallies, the Valley’s Got Talent shows and Baccalaureate services; provided mentoring initiatives and the I Serve Day program where youth perform community service in collaboration with the Urban Mission; and created the Sunshine Bible Club. The group also developed the Sycamore Youth Center and offers 30 afterschool programs including art and music programs and games, among other activities.

“We’re trying to give kids something to do after school [and this has] been a successful way for them to learn skills.”

first (24-19) involves ODOT wanting to modify the speed limit on Harrison 12, “from Cadiz Corporation Limit proceeding east 2.977 miles to 0.396 miles east of…Dump Road.”

The second (25-19), was ODOT’s wish to modify the speed limit on Harrison 13, “from CR 12 proceeding north 1.851 miles to 0.033 miles south of…Davis Road.”

“It is the belief of this Board that such investigation confirms the allegation that the statutory speed limit of 55 m.p.h. is unrealistic,” per the resolution read by Commissioner, Dale

Norris.

The third resolution (26-19), is for modifying Harrison 13 “from CR 12 proceeding south 1.143 miles.”

Resolution (36-19 and 37-19) were grant renewal agreements between the county, the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction, Division of Parole and Community Services and the Bureau of Community Sanctions. It is described as a “subsidy grant agreement for Community-Based Corrections programs “Non-Residential.”

One grant was for “up to” $204,416.00 and the second

“Whereas, the Grantor is authorized…to determine and award grant funds to assist local government in communitybased corrections program services that are designed to reduce or divert the number of person committed to state penal institutions and/or detained in and/or committed to local corrections agencies,” as stated by each resolution.

The $204,000 grant payments are to be paid in eight installments of $25,552 each and the $7,000 grant is to be paid in $875 payments.

During the business meeting minutes from the May meeting and the Treasurer's report were accepted as presented. Anna Mizer reported on the status of the Harrison County Farm Bureau magazines that our club supplies for the Harrison Hills fourth grade class.

In old business it was noted that the club had to cancel the hot dog stand at Sanders; it is an item to be considered for a fundraiser next year. Jennifer Dunlap updated the club on the baskets for the Sally Buffalo Days and thanked the members for their donations of money and/or items for this project.

Jennifer and Jackie Dunlap will complete the baskets and have tickets ready for advance sales at the September meeting. Jennifer Dunlap is continuing to do a great job with the club’s Facebook page and information regarding the club. The group will be obtaining a post office box and making other changes to update the change of officers.

In new business, a ‘thinking of you’ card was signed by those present for Naomi Trotter. The club voted to make a donation of $100 for the Blues for the

Cure concert that will take place June 29 at Sally Buffalo Park.

The club then moved to the Installation of Officers for the period 2019-2021 with Vickie Beetham as facilitator. She presented potted herbs and shared their meaning to recognize each new officer. New Secretary Jennifer Dunlap received Rosemary to aid her with her memory and give peace of mind as she performs her duties. New Treasurer Porsche Beetham was given chives to give her abundance, harmony and balance. New Vice President Karen Mizer received oregano which represents assistance, help, joy and happiness. New President Kathy Depew was given Sage to show wisdom, strength and protection.

Vickie then presented outgoing President Susan Adams with lavender. To thank her for her guidance and devotion. Thank you to Vickie for a beautiful installation of officers. Best wishes to these new officers as they accept their new roles. Thank you to outgoing Treasurer Anna Mizer, Secretary Jackie Dunlap and Vice President Kathy Depew for all your time and devotion to the club.

The club will not meet in July and August so that members may enjoy a summer break with their families. The next meeting will be Sept. 5, and it will be a picnic.
