Commissioners learn of the containment of an oil spill By NANCY SCHAAR FPS Correspondent
Carroll County Emergency Management Agency Director Tom Cottis reported to the Board of Commissioners on March 5, that his department has been dealing with a fuel oil spill at a residence on Waynesburg Road. The Environmental Protection Agency and the county sheriff’s office were notified and found a home heating fuel tank on its side. ”It was an old tank. The residents had just had the tank filled with fuel oil on Sunday. The old legs on the tank were rusted and collapsed under the weight of the full tank. It probably tipped over Monday morning,” said Cottis. Cottis said that approximately 50 to 85 gallons of fuel has leaked from the tank. Due to heavy rains, the oil has been pushed into a field, which actually makes it easier to collect and clean up, according to Cottis. The health department has been notified since there are water wells nearby. A private clean up company was still on site on Thursday. The homeowner has filed a claim with their insurance and indicated to Cottis that it is covered and the county will be reimbursed. Clerk Supervisor Christopher
Modranski said he received the Community Development Block Grant 2017 (CDBG) report from the state with no findings and two advisements. “I was happy to have wrapped this up. This $140,000 was used to pave streets in Dellroy, Leesville, Sherrodsville and Lee Township,” said Modranski. Commissioners approved the instant bingo fundraising contract with the Carroll County Veteran’s Club to accept donations made to the sheriff’s office. At least 25% of the proceeds from the sale of the tickets will be donated to the general fund to be used for the sheriff’s department. In other business commissioners: - ADOPTED a proclamation declaring March as Developmental Disabilities Month. - MET in executive session with Sonja Trbovich, Director of Public Transit, to discuss employee compensation. Following the session, commissioners approved a change in the policy and procedure handbook to limit the number of hours donated to other employees each year. - WILL hold a public hearing on Monday, March 23 at 9:30 a.m. for the Community Housing Impact & Preservation (CHIP) PY20 grant. - APPOINTED Rachel Rinkes and Jessica Ailing to the Eastern Ohio Child Abuse and Child Neglect Regional Prevention Council through March 6, 2022.

Two vie for Republican nomination for Carroll County commissioner Two men have thrown their hat in the ring for the Jan. 3 term of Carroll County commissioner on the Republican ballot Tuesday, March 17. Facing off for the Republican nomination are Christopher R. Modranski and Donald “Pete” Leggett Jr. Donald “Pete” Leggett II, 50, of Scio, is a Carrollton High School graduate. When asked why he is running for office, he said, “As a lifetime resident of Carroll County, this county means a lot to me. I want to help to continue making Carroll County a great place for the residents.” Leggett noted, “I have been a business owner for 25 years and an elected township trustee for 23 as chairman. For both, I have been successful, well respected and a hard worker.” When asked what improvements or changes he would like to see and how he proposes to implement them, he said, “My main concern that I would like to see is improvements in the county’s finances. How the county budgets for projects, acquires quotes and conducts outsourcing is something, as a business owner, I would have experience in and my input would be valuable.” “With money saved, more projects and repairs could be completed within the county,” Leggett said. Christopher R. Modranski, 36, of Carrollton, is a Carrollton High School graduate and has a bachelor’s degree in business administration from Kent State University. When asked why he is running for office, he said, “Serving as a commissioner is not about
DONALD ‘PETE’ LEGGETT II a title or money to me. It’s a platform to be able to leverage resources in a way that can help our people and businesses grow and thrive.” “I have dedicated more than 14 years to serving the people of Carroll County, first as an emergency dispatcher for the Sheriff’s Office and then as the Clerk/Economic Development Director. I view my service to the county as a way to give back to a community that has given so much to me and my family,” he explained. “I bring some unique advantages to the race for Commissioner. I have been working in the Commissioners’ Office for over six years. I have been able to learn from five different commissioners and have a complete understanding of what the job requires. I have extensive experience in the day-to-day operations of the office including development and management
CHRISTOPHER R. MODRANSKI of the county budget, as well as successfully applying for numerous grants and managing a wide array of projects,” Modranski noted. He believes his experience will “allow me to be productive on day one as I will not need the normal training/orientation time required by someone new to the office. Additionally, I have over 10 years of experience as a councilman for the villages of Carrollton and Dellroy.” “My voting record will show that I am not just another ‘yes man’, as I have always put the people first and voted for what I thought was best for my community,” Modranski said. When asked what improvements or changes he would like to see and how he proposes to implement them, he said, “It’s crucial now more than ever to provide our constituents and businesses with adequate Internet service. Carroll County has
many areas that are underserved or worse yet, unserved when it comes to Internet service. Internet service is a must for businesses to survive in today’s environment.” “Additionally, our children are being assigned homework that requires the use of the Internet to complete,” he continued. “Furthermore, the digital era we are living in allows streaming of television programs and telephone services via the Internet. There are several rural Internet initiatives at the state and federal level and my plan is to collaborate with our regional development organization to create the best plan and aggressively go after and obtain funding to provide the needed services.” Modranksi would also like to improve residents’ “family-centered way of life in the county.” “Currently, 53% of our county’s workforce leaves the county every day to go to work with an average one-way commute of 30-40 minutes,” he pointed out. “That is additional time away from family and often times when a parent gets home, they pick their child up and then have to drive back out of the county for recreation.” “My plan is to restore relationships with community and business leaders and work together as a community to find ways to give our families opportunities to grow and play in Carroll County. When you are committed and passionate, the possibilities are endless,” Modranski said. The winner of the Republican primary will face Democrat Tom White in the November general election.

Guest Column
Rocket Blast By TODD HERMAN Conotton Valley Superintendent
Spring is in the air! I really enjoy this time of year. The plants start to bloom and the birds are returning, while the grass will start to green up very soon. In the classroom, it means the third nine weeks is coming to an end. At Conotton Valley, this means the second student-led conference will be taking place. On March 26, our students will be leading their parents through the results found in their leadership notebooks. In the fall, students shared with their parents the goals and action steps they created to meet those goals. This time around, the students will be able to explain how they met their goal or what barrier caused them to come up short. Either way, it is a great learning experience for our kids. They will take ownership of their actions and use the knowledge gained from the process to succeed in the future. We encourage our students to display a “Growth Mindset.” In this
approach, we must focus on the knowledge we gained from both our successes and failures. Obviously, we want our students to reach their goals, but whether they obtain goal attainment or not, it is only one step in the journey of a life-long learner. I know personally, some of my biggest failed attempts have led to some of my most cherished successes. The key is to learn from our failures and not wallow in self-pity. A loss is only a loss if you end your journey. We would like each of you to make the journey to Conotton Valley High School from 6-8 p.m. on Thursday, March 26. The district will be holding our annual Science Night which includes the following activities: - CO2 Dragster Races - Spring Plant Sale - Greenhouse tours - Canned Food Drive for the local food pantry. - CV Forensic Files - Fingerprinting, Junior High oil spill clean-up, High School Robotics demonstration - Physics Station - Mystery Station We hope to see you on the 26th! Go Rockets! #CVROCKS

Lest We Forget By CAPT. CHARLES PEARSON
U.S. Marine Corps, ret. On Aug. 13, 1918, Opha Mae Johnson officially became the first female Marine when she enlisted in the Marine Corps Reserve in Washington, D.C. World War I was raging and the Corps wanted women to take over stateside office duties so battle-ready Marines could be sent overseas. Pvt. Johnson, a category “F” (Female) Marine, was 18 when she enlisted, the morning after the secretary of the Navy granted authority for the Corps to enroll women for clerical duty in the reserve. More than 300 women joined her that year, answering the Corps call to “Free a man to Fight.” Although Johnson was the first woman to enlist in the Corps, she wasn’t the first to wear a Marine uniform. During the war of 1812, a gung-ho woman by the name of Lucy Brewer disguised herself as a man and signed up for duty. She served in the Marine detachment aboard the heavy frigate Con-
stitution. More than 20 years later, during World War II, roughly 1,000 female officers and 18,000 enlisted women served in the Corps. The Marine Women’s Reserve was established in February 1943. By the last year of the war, when most available male Marines were battling the Japanese in the Pacific, women comprised more than half of the personnel at Marine Corps bases in the continental U. S. In 1948, Congress passed the Women’s Armed Forces Integration Act, which authorized women to be in the regular components of their particular service. From that point on, the duties of all the Armed Forces Women has greatly increased. Today you will find them as secretaries, truck drivers, pilots, mechanics and such, as well as on the battle field along side the men. We must keep them all in our prayers - men and women alike - and pray for their safe return as they risk their lives for our freedom. They must not be forgotten. Charles Pearson is the chaplain for the Malvern Legion Post 375 and Carrollton VFW Post 3301.

Pastor’s Pen
I grew up in a house that was over 100 years old. There was no air conditioning and I only remember one window fan and hardly any windows had screens. We had one bathroom for four people, but no shower. I just assumed my living standards were normal and it was okay. Then one day, I went to play at a friend’s house. They had a bathroom on each of three floors. And two of them had showers! Plus, they had window air conditioners and two televisions. (We only had one small TV.) I was amazed. I suppose I could have been jealous, yet, surprisingly, I wasn’t. Maybe it was because I was still young, but I was happy with the good things in my life. I was satisfied with what I had. My parents always gave me enough. Since those days I have met far too many people who are jealous of what others have and feel life is unfair. They want to accumulate things and when others have more than they have, they are not happy. One wonderful gift my parents gave me in my youth was a need to love God and an awareness that God loves me despite my flaws and failures. I quickly learned that accumulating things might bring momentary satisfaction, however, it does not bring long-term happiness. When we get something new that we really wanted we are truly excited, but it doesn’t take long for that excitement to pass. However, when we create a relationship with God, we discover many blessings and a depth of joy that cannot be found elsewhere and lasts for a lifetime if we keep seeking God. When the Lord is in our lives, we find that we are satisfied with what we have. There is no reason to waste our time wishing we had more. God gives us more than enough. In Second Corinthians 9:8 we read, “And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.” Pastor Jim Retired

Sherry’s Book Corner Hi kids! Soon it will be spring! That means summer is just around the corner! But, in the meantime, we just have to be patient for the warmer weather to get here and stay. Just like our story this week. It takes place in California. The illustrations in our story come to life with each page. The author, Tony Johnston has written more than 100 children’s books. Her story about a puma came to her by a visit to her cabin in the California countryside. Pumas once ranged from North America to the Patagonia region of South America. After the jaguar, it is the second-largest cat of the Americas. They can grow to be six feet long and are the color of a lion. I am sorry to say, they are now endangered. Mostly due to the landscape in which they live. Their territory keeps getting smaller because of home building and agriculture. There are many groups out there who are trying to protect the puma. I thought you would like to read about how we could be of help for this beautiful creature. Here is a place you may want to check out!

National Geographic Big Cats Initiative: nationalgeographic.org/projects/big-cats-initiative. Until next time, get ready for a visit to the beautiful state of California! Your friend, Sherry Sherry Kline Bolitho Children’s Book Title: Puma Dreams Written by: Tony Johnston Illustrated by: Jim Lamarche Publisher: Simon & Schuster for Young Readers Age group: 4-adult Price: $17.99 Available at the Carroll County District Library A young girl longs to see a puma. It is summer now and the grass is dry. The hills are puma-colored. Surely she will see her puma. They are known as the ghost of the mountains because they are rarely seen. Her grandmother tells her to be patient. Days and months go by... but she remains patient. Keeping busy, she does her chores and decides to make a walking stick. She whittles a small puma on the handle. Her grandmother always says things happen when you are looking the other way. Someday she knows a puma will come her way. But when?

UHRICHSVILLE - This weekend is the moment wrestlers from all over the state of Ohio have been working all season for - the Ohio High School Athletic Association state wrestling tournament. The Carrollton Warriors wrestling team sent eight wrestlers to the Claymont’s district tournament, but only two are advancing to the state tournament. Alex Carrothers and Nate Blake, both seniors, will represent the Warriors at the Jerome Schottenstein Center March 13-15. Entering the state tournament, the difference between the two seniors is -
Carrothers is a two-time state qualifier and Blake has never been. Blake opened the tournament at 145 lbs. with a 10-4 decision over Philo’s Drew Lincicome but fell in the championship quarterfinals by a 4-3 decision to Miami Trace’s Graham Carson. Dropping down to the consolation bracket, Blake needed to win his next three matches to punch his ticket to state. It wasn’t an easy road, but he fought through and earned a trip to the big stage. Blake claimed a 1-0 victory over West Holmes’ Hunter Bowling, defeated Indian Creek’s Jeremy Brown 11-6 and gave it his all in the consolation semifinal’s against Fairfield Union’s Nathan Welsh. A back-and-forth match, Blake ended

up victorious by beating Blake 7-5. As the match ended and Blake knew he was state bound, the emotions began to show. He yelled and celebrated, embraced his coaches all while his parents say in the stands, just as happy as he was. Blake, a first-time state qualifier, says it feels great to finally make it to state. “It feels great. I came in seeded second at sectionals and got to the championship and I was pretty excited about that,” he said following his go-to match. “I came in for districts, won the first one and lost the second one by a point and battled my way all the way back. It feels pretty great.” Blake says he’s excited to be able to represent the Warriors at state. “It means a lot. I wouldn’t want to be from any other school,” he said.
“Especially for my last year in high school. It really just feels great.” Carrothers won his first match of the tournament with a pin in the first period against Maysville’s Marshall Humphrey. He was knocked out of the championship bracket in the quarterfinal, falling 7-3. Carrothers won his next two matches to keep his hopes alive for a trip to state. One of the wins included a 7-5 sudden victory over West Holmes’ Cruz Alexander. A 6-1 victory over Luke Linton of Logan Elm sealed Carrothers’ fate to head to state. Carrollton Coach Ken Pasiuk says Blake and Carrothers worked hard for a state berth. “Both Alex and Nathan are a couple of our hardest workers in the room,” he said. “This is Alex’s third trip so we’re
counting on his experience to help him make some noise this year and place.” “This is Nathan’s first time and we couldn’t be more proud and excited for him,” Pasiuk said about Blake. “He has works so hard to meet some high goals that he has set for himself. Last year he didn’t qualify for the district tournament. That disappointment I think gave him the fire and desire to change things this year.” With his own son (Aidan Pasiuk) competing in at the NCAA Division II national tournament this week, Pasiuk will not be in attendance at the state tournament to coach as he will be at nationals supporting his son, but has faith in his staff. “Who’s in the chair at a competition is irrelevant when it comes to the quality staff I have,” he said.

Beauty and the Beast will be performed March 19, 20 and 21 in the Minerva High School auditeria. Cast members are shown in the above photo. Portraying the two lead roles are Paisley Imler and Kyle Hudson (pictured on the far right).
Minerva to present ‘Beauty and the Beast’ March 19-21 It’s been called a “tale as old as time”, and indeed, it is. Maybe you remember the Disney animated version from the winter of 1991 or the more recent live action version from 2017. Maybe you’re really “old school” and you remember reading the actual story in book form, written by Linda Woolverton. No matter when or how you first encountered the story of Beauty and the Beast, you are invited to come to Minerva High School’s musical production of Beauty and the Beast to relive the tale of young Belle, the bookish young girl who discovers that love can change how we view others. The popular musical will be presented at 7 p.m. March 19, 20 and 21 in the Minerva High School auditeria. Pre-sale tickets
are $5 for students and $8 for adults in the high school office during school hours until Wednesday, March 18, at 2:30 p.m. Tickets at the door are $10 each. Belle’s beloved father is imprisoned by the Beast, a prince who was cursed and turned into a bitter monster. Belle sets out to save her father, and along the way, finds out that a little kindness and compassion can melt the coldest of hearts and allow love to bloom. She is helped along by a group of servants who were also cursed by the witch and who long to be human again, which can only happen if the Beast finds true love. Belle is portrayed by Paisley Imler, the Beast/Prince by Kyle
Hudson and Gaston by Tommy Smith. Other performers include Joey Thewes as Lefou, Alex Granat as Lumiere, Rebecca Vasilliu as Mrs. Potts, Brendan Bennett as Cogsworth, Alex Chadwick as Maurice, Nikita Abbott as Babette, Madison Cross as Chip, Alyssa Smith as Madame Wardrobe and Cole Castle as Monsieur D’Arque. The production is under the direction of Mrs. Debra Imler, choir director at Minerva High School. The music was written by Alan Menken, with lyrics by Howard Ashman and Tim Rice. **At press time, Gov. Dewine asked that all large public gatherings be suspended. Please check with the school to see if this event remains as scheduled.
Vehicles consist of many essential components to keep them running efficiently and effectively. Car and truck owners should have an understanding of how their vehicles function so they can diagnose and address problems as they arise. Car batteries are an important component of any vehicle. Even though engines are the powerhouse of any car or truck, without a battery, the engine wouldn’t be able to work. According to Firestone Complete Auto Care, car batteries work by providing a jolt of electricity necessary to power all the electrical components of the vehicle. This is achieved through a chemical reaction that changes chemical energy into the electrical energy needed to deliver voltage to the starter. In addition to initially starting the car, the battery also keeps electric current steady to keep the engine running. The battery also works in conjunction with the alternator to power the electronics in the car, according to the automo-
tive information blog Autosessive. While the car is running, the alternator reverses the current produced by the battery, recharging it as a result. This happens during long journeys, so people who drive for short bursts of time may find that their batteries will not have a chance to recharge and may not have the longevity desired. There is quite literally a lot riding on a functioning battery. No one wants to be caught stranded by a dead battery, so drivers may wonder if there are any indicators that may signal the battery needs replacement. • Slow turnover: If a vehicle does not immediately start or if the cranking is sluggish and takes longer to start, it may mean the battery is starting to fail. • Frequent, short trips: Drivers who make frequent, short trips may find their car batteries do not have time to fully recharge. This, coupled with overtaxing thanks to a lot of accessory use, may cause the battery and the alternator to have shortened life
spans. • Low battery fluid levels: If the fluid level is below the energy conductor inside, it is often indicative of overcharging and excessive heat. • Corrosion: Corrosion buildup, dust, dirt, and grime on battery connections may cause performance problems. Inspecting and cleaning the terminals can prolong the battery life. • Odors and leaks: Battery leaks can produce a sulfur odor similar to the smell of a rotten egg. This can become problematic over time, and leaks may indicate an aging or damaged battery. • Age: Most batteries have a finite life span. A well-maintained battery can last up to five years. Neglect can reduce that life expectancy considerably. • Bloated or cracked battery case: Replace the battery immediately if the case is cracking, as it could be because excessive heat is swelling the battery. Understanding how car batteries work can help drivers keep their cars running smoothly.
Drivers should learn the function of a car battery and how to keep it operational by learning the indicators that may signal a battery needs replaced.

Carrollton Legion honors students, longtime members By KIMBERLY LEWIS FPS Editor The Carrollton American Legion Post 428 honored students and its longtime members Saturday, March 7, during its annual birthday dinner at Ponderosa. Celebrating the Legion’s 101st birthday, the post recognized two of its longtime members Larry Tasker and Carl Miller for their 50 years of membership. Barto presented Tasker with a plaque and a pin. The post honored Miller at his funeral services last week. A moment of silence was held for Miller and John Howell who had recently passed away. “Tonight, we are here to honor wonderful, intelligent young people,” Barto said, referring to the Americanism and Government Test winners and the Buckeye Boys and Girls State delegates. Legionnaire Fred Barnett recognized the four Buckeye Boys and Girls State participants from 2019 who were present and noted the Legion gets “good, outstanding quality” of students. Thanking the Legion for its support and providing a report of their experiences were Girl Staters Grace Barnhart and Haiden Shuman and Boy Staters Zach Oboy and Jimmy Birong.

Vehicle belts should be inspected and maintained Responsible vehicle ownership involves taking inventory of the automobile and ensuring it is working at peak capacity. Hundreds of parts work together to keep vehicles on the road, but quite often drivers do not look under the hood until something is amiss. Routine maintenance is widely acknowledged as a critical component of responsible vehicle ownership, but many motorists may not know how to care for their cars. Belts are one example of components that are integral to efficient, well-running vehicles. The automotive resource iDriveSafely.com indicates that belts are some of the most crucial moving parts in the engine. Belts transmit power between shafts, and all belts, from serpentine belts to V-belts to timing belts, all serve important functions. • Serpentine belt: Firestone® Complete Auto Care says a ser-
pentine belt is a long, snaking, winding belt that keeps parts such as the water pump, alternator, power steering pump, and air conditioning running smoothly. Serpentine belts transport power to automotive accessories. A failing serpentine belt can cause enormous and expensive headaches, including overheating and loss of steering power. • V-belts: Also known as drive belts, these are usually found in older vehicles. Unlike serpentine belts, which run through various parts, V-belts run through one or two accessories. Older cars with many bells and whistles will have multiple V-belts, and should one break, it may not cause as much of an issue as if a serpentine belt were to falter. • Timing belt: Advance Auto Parts says that most cars have interference engines in which the clearance between moving
parts is so small that they can end up bumping into each other if they’re not running on the same timing as one another. That is where the timing belt comes into play. It connects the crankshaft to the camshaft, helping them stay in sync. Failing to pay attention to a timing belt can result in an expensive engine repair. Belts have finite service lives, and heat and wear and tear are usually their nemeses. It is important to look for fraying or cracking of belts. Even belts that look new may have worn out grooves that lose their grips on matching pulley grooves. Mechanics often use special gauges to check belts. Belts also may need to be replaced due to oil or grease contamination that can damage the rubber or synthetic rubber. It is important to check the owner’s manual and seek advice from a qualified mechanic about when belts should be serviced.
Belts transmit power between shafts, and all belts, from serpentine belts to V-belts to timing belts, all serve important functions.
Learn how to lower the cost of auto insurance Noisy brakes may be telling you something Auto insurance is a must-have for drivers. While it might seem hard to believe, as of 2019 there are still some places in the United States where auto insurance is not mandatory. Many people, even those in places where auto insurance is not mandatory, recognize the importance of being insured before they get behind the wheel. However, that doesn’t mean those same drivers would not like to cut the cost of their auto insurance policies. A 2019 analysis from the online financial resource NerdWallet found that the average cost of car insurance in the United States is $1,621 per year. Average insurance costs vary significantly in Canada, where data from the General Insurance Statistical Agency found that, in 2019, the average annual insurance premium in British Columbia exceeded $1,800, while drivers in Quebec paid slightly more than $700 annually. No matter where drivers live,
chances are they would love to lower their auto insurance costs. While there’s no onesize-fits-all solution to cut auto insurance premiums, drivers can try various strategies to save money on their policies. • Raise your policy’s deductibles. Higher deductibles may sound scary to drivers, but raising the deductibles is a great way to lower the cost of auto insurance. The auto insurance provider Progressive notes that deductibles typically range from $100 to $2,000. A driver whose policy has a $100 deductible will pay considerably more on his policy per month than a driver with a higher deductible. In fact, the Insurance Information Institute notes that drivers who increase their deductibles from $200 to $1,000 can save 40 percent or more on their coverage costs. Drivers who choose this option should always be sure they have enough money in the bank to cover the cost of their deductibles.
While there’s no one-size-fits-all solution to cut auto insurance premiums, drivers can try various strategies to save money on their policies. Drivers can potentially save hundreds of dollars earch year.
• Bundle your policies. Some drivers save money on their auto insurance policies by buying two or more types of insurance from the same provider. For example, homeowners may save money by buying homeowners insurance from their auto insurance providers or vice versa. • Research potential discounts. The III notes that many companies offer discounts to policyholders, even if those discounts are not necessarily promoted. Drivers can contact

their insurance companies, or shop around with other providers, to ask about various discounts that can save them money on their policies. Anti-theft devices, defensive driving courses, low annual mileage, and a strong credit record are just a handful of the many potential discounts drivers may be eligible for. Drivers can reduce the cost of their auto insurance policies in various ways, potentially saving themselves hundreds of dollars each year as a result.
The only noises many drivers ever want to hear coming from their vehicles are the sounds of their favorite songs blasting from their car stereos. But cars sometimes make noises that aren’t nearly as inviting as music. Noises that seem to pop up when applying the brakes can be especially scary for motorists. No one wants to drive a vehicle with faltering or suspect brakes, so learning to distinguish between the two most common brake noises can be a wise move for drivers. Grinding brakes The automotive retailer Pep Boys® notes that grinding noises indicate a serious problem with the braking system. According to CarsDirect.com, there are two major causes behind the grinding noise made by brakes. If the grinding sound is audible when pressing on the brake pedal, this likely because the rotor disc is coming into contact with part of the caliper. This typically occurs because the brake pads or rotors are extremely worn down, causing the steel backing of the worn out pad to grind against the rotor. In such instances, Pep Boys® recommends replacing the brake pads immediately. If the grinding noise is audible while the vehicle is in motion, debris might be stuck inside the brakes. Drivers might be able to dislodge this debris by repeat-
edly moving their cars forward and backward in a safe place, such as a driveway. If that does not work, have the brakes serviced by a qualified mechanic. Squealing Many drivers are familiar with the high-pitched squealing sound that comes from their vehicles or those of fellow motorists. That squeal, while certainly not music to the ears, might be a good thing. That’s because Pep Boys® notes that some brake pads are equipped with small steel clips that serve as wear indicators. When brake pads have worn down, these devices produce a squealing sound to let drivers know it’s time to get new brake pads. But squealing can be indicative of other things as well. Squealing noises are sometimes heard immediately after brake pads or rotors have been replaced. In such instances, the noise typically subsides within a day or two once the pads have been broken in. Glazed pads also can create a squealing sound. When calipers stick, the brakes stay partially applied, producing excessive friction or heat. The heat causes the brake pads to glaze. No one wants to hear noises coming from their brakes. However, such noises are often a car’s way of telling drivers that brakes need to be serviced.

Airport fence project to continue in April By NANCY SCHAAR FPS Correspondent
of the work contracted for has been completed, according to Wanamaker. The next phase of installing the perimeter wildlife fence at the airport is ready to begin sometime in April, as soon as weather permits. Wanamaker told board members that if they can prepare grant applications for a grant from ODOT by May 1, they have a chance of receiving funds to assist with tree removal along the runway approach. Emergency Management Director Tom Cottis informed the board that he has been working to establish the Airport Zoning Board of Appeals, along with Director of Economic Development Christopher Modranski and Commissioner Bob Wirkner. Cottis said they have met with county prosecutor Steven
Carroll County Airport consultant Lance Wanamaker told Carroll County Airport Authority board members at the March 9 meeting that his company, Michael Baker International, has paid several outstanding invoices to Robert Akins Surveying for work Akins has done and needed paid before anything more could be drawn from Ohio Department of Transportation grant funds. Akins has been working with Wanamaker to consolidate properties onto a map for the airport. The grant has been spent down to 10% remaining on the balance, but that amount cannot be withdrawn until all
Barnett and learned that since there has been no enforcement of regulations since they were established in 1967, the trees may have been grandfathered in. The FAA did an inspection in 2014 and told board members that the large trees in the approach area must be removed immediately. “Some of the wording in the resolution from 1967 will not hold in today’s legal standings,” said Cottis.
