Sherrodsville Council discusses ambulance service By NANCY SCHAAR FPS Correspondent Sherrodsville Council unanimously agreed to receive free ambulance services from Regional Transit ambulance service owned by Joel Decker. Decker told council he will not charge any resident of Sherrodsville for emergency services during this time, until an agreement is reached with the vil-lage. Decker has sent a representative to several council meetings asking for them to approve his com-pany as the first ambulance to be called if there is a 911 call to the village. Currently, Bowerston is the first to be
called, then Smith Ambulance from Dover, then EMT Ambu-lance from Carrollton. Most calls for help today have a response time of about 45 to 50 minutes. Decker is asking for his company to lease the former building used for Sherrodsville EMS services. Decker proposed $1 a year for the lease. The Sherrodsville EMS squad is currently being disbanded and has not had any volunteers or answered any calls for help for a couple of years. Decker continues to ask council to give him the new squad that was received by the village 2 years ago with a FEMA grant. There is an older squad that Decker also wants to claim. He also asked for all the emergency training
gear and any squad related items, from bandages to other equipment. Village solicitor J. J. Ong and council members have told Decker’s representatives that he has sent to meetings that as a private company, the village is not allowed to give him the new squad. Mon-day was the first time Decker has actually attended a meeting of council. Decker lives in South Car-olina. Since the unit was purchased with FEMA grant funds the village is not permitted to sell it. The vil-lage can only donate it to another government entity or another village department. Ong said at the last meeting that Decker has repeatedly been told he is not getting the new squad and he con-tinues to think he is.
Council member Mike Booth again told Decker Monday night the village cannot and will not give him the new squad. And again, Booth explained why. Decker replied by saying he was certified by FEMA. But that didn’t change the law, according to Ong. Decker said his private company is IRS approved and have received their 501c3 status, so it is non-profit. But Decker also explained that his bus will be used to transport patients from area nursing homes to doctor or hospital appointments. Council again questioned who will answer calls in Sherrodsville when you are out on a transport. Decker replied, “Hopefully volunteers”. “I hope to help the community. I am
here to help. We want to provide service to the village. We will have a bus at Orange Township. So we have one on that side of the tracks and one here. We will keep our headquarters here and give the village income tax,” state Decker. Decker announced to council that he had agreements with both Orange Township trustees and Monroe Township trustees. “They signed it this morning,” said Decker referring to the agreement with Monroe trustees. The Free Press Standard questioned Decker about the Monroe Township agreement. A township trustee did attend county commissioners meeting on

Commissioners informed of health project By NANCY SCHAAR FPS Correspondent Amy Campbell from the Carroll County General Health District informed county commissioners that they are seeking funding to do the 2019 Carroll County Community Health Assessment. “It is our responsibility to do an assessment every three years. We did one in 2013 and one in 2016 so it’s due now,” said Campbell. The grant that funded the specific project no longer exists so alternative funding is needed, according to Campbell. One company that provides that service was contacted and gave a quote of $54,000. Campbell contacted a second company called Center for Marketing and their charge is $16,000 for the same project but youth information is not provided. The company would charge an additional $4,000 to include
more inside
the youth survey. Director of Nursing Kelly Engelhart told commissioners that $13,500 was pledged from area sponsors, such as a community foundation and Aultman Hospital. Commissioner Jeff Ohler said commissioners certainly have an interest in this project. He asked them to return before the deadline of Aug. 31 for the program. Ohler said if more donations are needed perhaps they can help with a small amount. In other business commissioners: - LEARNED that the auditor’s office hours will be from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Sept. 11 and 12, due to informal hearings. - APPOINTED Sean Smith, Jeff Ohler and Rachel Rinkes to the Multi County Juvenile Attention System through December 31, 2024. - AGREED to send a letter of support for a grant application for Fox Township Volunteer Fire Department in order to purchase a new engine.

Thursday, August 22, 2019 COUNCIL from PG. 1 Monday and gave them a copy of an agree-ment for ambulance service. It was signed July 10, 2019. It could not have been signed Monday, Aug. 19, as stated by Decker since trustees did not have a meeting that day. The Free Press also pointed out to Ong, Mayor Michelle Higgenbotham, and Fiscal Officer Valerie Gardner that the agreement is actually between Monroe Township and Sherrodsville EMS. There is no mention of Regional Transport in the document. Decker said, “Oh yeah, I know all about that. They’re going to fix it”. The proposal given to the village by Decker states that residents will not have to pay any balance that was not covered by insurance, Medicare or Medicaid. But the proposal also says that fees will be considered on a “one to one basis”. Decker’s proposal asked that the village lease all equipment, all buildings (EMS, fire hall and the state building) to his private company, along with a buy-out for all the buildings in two or three years. But no amounts are listed and specific details as to what any of it includes are not presented. But Decker wants all the equipment, and said “anything that you want to give me”. Also requested was all the training equipment because Decker said it was very important to start training new responders.
Once again, Ong told council he will not recommend that council approve any part of this proposal from Decker. The agreement includes this company is a part time paid organization and they use volunteers at least 50% of the time. Decker stated there will be coverage Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Coverage will be available on weekends 24/7. Other times will be covered by volunteers if they are available. Decker did not explain why people will volunteer and not get paid to work for his private compa-ny. Decker said he would charge about the same as Smith Ambulance does, which is $22 a head. And since there are about 220 residents of Sherrodsville, that would be $4,880 to cover the village each year. Sherrodsville EMS Director Kevin Vandergrift asked Decker what assurances the village would have if he is “on a trip” for transport of a patient for coverage for the village. “The same re-assurance as other agencies have.” The Chairman of the Board of Directors for Regional Transport is Joel’s father, Charles Decker. The secretary is Mandy Henderson. Michelle Enold is the treasurer. Joel is the “interim” executive di-rector or CEO. The Medical Director for his company is from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Decker said he will transport to Mercy, Ault-
man, or Cleveland. “I will also transport to Pennsylvania too,” continued Decker. Decker then said he is getting his license so he can work in Pennsylvania too. This was said after “guaranteeing” that he is committed to Sherrodsville and the area. Decker did not explain why he would be pursuing licensing for Pennsylvania. Council questioned if he’s on a trip to Pennsylvania, who will be responding in Sherrodsville. Again, Decker said hopefully volunteers. Current Sherrodsville EMS Director Kevin Vandergrift asked Decker how does the village know they can count on him? How does the village know he will stay? This time? Decker has worked as the director of Sherrodsville EMS several times. Each time he has abruptly left the area and the state without much of an explanation or reason to council. “This is the company I founded. I guarantee not to pick up and go. My name is on everything. I have $48,000 in this company. I want my money back. My Dad has $58,000 in this company. He wants his money back,” stated Decker. “I would like council to give me a list of equipment that will be given to him. I am not in favor of any part of his proposal,” stated Ong once again.

Sherrodsville fills vacant seat By NANCY SCHAAR FPS Correspondent Sherrodsville Council unanimously voted to seat Denise Melzer as the final sixth member of village council. Council has been lacking two or three members for about two years. With the seating of Michelle Higgenbotham as mayor this summer, additional members have stepped forward to serve the village. Council members are now, Melzer, Mike Booth, Shawn Leggett, John Nicholas, Lila Booth and Jay Vaughan. Harry Matter of CT Consultants informed council of possible grants through Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District to assist the village to repair a road slip and several drainage issues in the village. Following discussion regarding the estimates for costs and
how the grants are handled, council asked Matter to return with more information. Higgenbotham said she had contacted several people regarding the reassembling of the gift of playground equipment from Conotton Valley High School. Council was enthusiastic in their thanks to Mike Melzer who gave them a check from the Green Valley Ruritan’s for $1,000. Council again thanked the Sherrodsville Lion’s Club for their donation of $2,000 to the village to assist with the cost to put up the new playground equipment. In other business council: -HEARD a resident ask what can be done about her neighbor’s goats, chickens, and pigs. She advised council that the noise is bad but the stink is the biggest issue. This keeps her from being out on her porch, having windows open or enjoying her yard. She was advised
that the animals are actually out of the village and lie in the township. So there was nothing council could help her with. It was suggested she contact the county health department. - LEARNED tax income for the village is still above last year’s totals for this month. - WILL prepare a resolution to sell two parcels of land donated to the village. - DISCUSSED building an office and meeting room in another village building and moving offices. - AGREED to have checks pre-printed with the mayor’s signature in order to expedite matters as needed. - DISCUSSED gifting of the newer ambulance unit to another entity. The safety committee will meet and make a recommendation to council. - ACCEPTED the bid of $2,500.01 from Jay McClain for the villages’ 1994 Chevy dump truck.
A 52-year-old Scio area man has been sentenced to 15 months in prison upon conviction of a 4th degree felony. The prison sentence against Mark Hiner of 9500 Chalon Rd. SE, Scio, was imposed last Thursday by Carroll County Common Pleas Court Judge Michael A. Repella II, after Hiner was found guilty the previous day by a 12-member petit jury of receiving stolen property. Judge Repella also ordered Hiner to pay $380 in restitution and all courts costs generated by his prosecution. The Court also found that Hiner is entitled to 71 days jail time and credit against his prison sentence. According to Carroll County Prosecuting Attorney Steven D. Barnett, the evidence at the jury trial showed a Bobcat style skid loader was reported stolen to the Harrison County Sheriff’s Department last April 29. The investigation resulted in Harri-
son and Carroll deputies going to Hiner’s residence at 9500 Chalon Rd. in Perry Twp. where the skid loader was found hidden under dense brush. “While deputies were at the location, something in the brush pile caught their attention and the missing machinery they were investigating was found. It was well camouflaged,” Barnett said. During the one-day jury trial Aug. 14, the jury of seven women and five men heard testimony from three state’s witnesses that include both investigating sheriff’s deputies – Todd Smith of the Harrison County Sheriff’s office and Edward Hale of the Carroll County Sheriff’s office - along with Travis Alazaus, the victim. The defendant did testify and was the only defense witness called. Hiner claimed he did not know the skid loader was stolen and he also disputed the value, according to Prosecutor Barnett.
“The jury also viewed several photographs and officer bodycam video of the encounter with Hiner,” Barnett added. Barnett said that under Ohio law, since the skid loader was not considered a motor vehicle by definition, the State had the burden of proving its value was $7,500 or more in order for the offense to be classified as a 4th degree felony. “The jury found, based on the evidence presented, that the value was indeed more than $7,500, and so Hiner was convicted of the more serious felony four, receiving stolen property offense,” Barnett added. Chief Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Michael J. Roth presented the case on behalf of the State of Ohio and Hiner was represented by Attorney Stephen J. Kandel of the Carroll County Public defender’s office. The jury deliberated only about a half hour before returning the guilty verdict.

OPINION Residents of Dellroy once again have upheld their tradition of having “the biggest little homecoming”! It was gratifying for a Free Press Standard reporter to visit the homecoming twice this year – once to enjoy the Friday night band “Jon Doe” and again Saturday to again devour some of the delicious home cooked food at very reasonable prices – and more music by Black Powder Pie. A parade Thursday night featured numerous marching and mobile units, including the Minerva High School Lion Marching Band under the direction of Derrick Maxey. There was interesting memorabilia in the fire station where numerous photos of Dellroy then and now, along with pictures of the Dellroy schools and former students which were on display. Bingo also was the offered in the Dellroy Community building. All of this is made possible through the generous and dependable volunteers who work unthinkable hours to make their homecoming attractive to the public – and to raise a little money for the Dellroy Volunteer Fire Department. N. Ohio St. is annually blocked off for the annual event in August. This year the homecoming activities featured several rides for both young and old – nightly entertainment and as previously mentioned – delicious food! Where else can you get a sausage sandwich with peppers and onions for $3 – sloppy joes and coneys for $2 and a large pan of freshly cut French fries for two bucks? Dellroy is not the only place in this area that depends on their reliable volunteers for their annual homecomings. Residents of Fox Twp., Kilgore, Minerva and Magnolia also turn out in full force to make THEIR homecoming the best each year! Hats off to the many volunteers who donate a huge amount of time for these annual enjoyable homecoming events. Letters to the Editor deadline is 5 p.m. Friday. They must be signed with a contact number and town listed. Obituaries are due noon Tuesday for that week’s paper.

Lest We Forget By CAPT. CHARLES PEARSON
U.S. Marine Corps, ret. April 9, 1942, on the peninsula of Bataan, Philippines, was the largest surrender in U.S. history. Some 35,000 American and Filipino troops and 25,000 civilians were taken prisoner. The next day began an ordeal that shocked the world. It became known as the “March of Death.” All the prisoners were herded onto the Mariveles Air field on Bataan. They were searched and stripped of all personal belongings and no one was permitted to eat any food they had with them. Those prisoners found to possess Japanese tokens or money were immediately beheaded. The prisoners were then divided into groups of 500 to 1,000 and marched along the National Road of Bataan toward the unfinished prison camp O’Donnel. The march was 85 miles long. During the march the prisoners were made to retrace their steps over and over for no apparent reason. Some made the 85 miles in six days with one ration consisting of a mess kit of soggy rice. Others made it in 12 days without any food or water whatsoever. The torture and atrocious acts toward the prisoners along the march route were unspeakable. They were beaten with rifle butts and slapped with sticks as they marched without food or water on scorching hot days. The stronger were shot or beaten when they attempted to help the weaker. Those who fell from exhaustion or sickness were killed and left to lie on the road for the others to march over. The Japanese would run over the bodies with their trucks and flatten them like road kill. At night they were crowded into
barbed wire bull pens so tight there was no room to lie down. As they marched along the National Road, the Filipino natives would try to throw them food and water. The guards would beat them or shoot them. The prisoners were constantly searched for what they might have received. The Japanese then changed their tactics and had the prisoners march all night and sit or stand in the barbed wire enclosures under the hot scorching sun during the day. The Japanese guards amused themselves by charging with their bayonets into the crowded compounds. Sometimes 115 prisoners were crowded into narrow gauge railroad boxcars not large enough to hold forty. The doors were closed and locked. Movement was impossible. Many of the prisoners were suffering dysentery. The heat and stench was unbearable. When the “March of Death” was over, more than 5,200 Americans and many times that number of Filipinos had been tortured to death. The remaining prisoners were placed in the prison camp O’Donnel. After the prisoners had been in camp one week, the death rate among the Americans were 20 a day and among the Filipinos, 150 a day. After two weeks the death rate increased to 50 a day among the Americans and 500 a day among the Filipinos. Men shrank from 200 pounds to 90. They had no buttocks. They were human skeletons. It was pain and simple starvation. The sacrifice our troops endured and are enduring, not only for our freedom, but the freedom for freedom loving people throughout the world, is why we should always keep them in our prayers. Charles Pearson is the chaplain for the Malvern Legion Post 375 and Carrollton VFW Post 3301.

Sherry’s Book Corner Hi kids! The gift of imagination... who has it? I do! And... I bet most of you do too! I love the gift of imagination. Most writers do and artists do too. We live in a world full of facts, and that’s how it should be. But where would we be without imagination? Did you ever think about that? The two brothers who designed and wrote this book has great imaginations. Did you ever think how talented YOU are? Terry Fan received his formal art training at the Ontario College of Art and Design in To r o n t o , Canada. Visit him online at krop. com/terryfan and society6. com/igo2cairo. Eric Fan is an artist and writer who lives in Toronto, Canada. You can see more of his work at society6.com/opifan64. His first children’s book was The Night Gardner. Enjoy this book for pleasure, but study it if you are interested in making a living through your imagination. Go online and check these men out. I have found when you want to learn how to do something you want to do and do it well, study those before you. They can make a world of difference on how you look at things.

Members of the Carrollton High School Basketball Team (in back) joined senior citizens at Ann Green Park for a meal, fellowship and some Bingo during Fair Week. The senior citizens spent the week at the park instead of the Friendship Center because of the fair activities at the fairgrounds.
CHS Basketball Team spends time with seniors The Friendship Center again served its seniors at the Ann Green Park each day during Fair Week and continued to provide all of its home-delivered meals. The attendance was up daily from last year, so the center will continue to offer this service annually. On Thursday, the staff offered a barbecue-style lunch served by the Carrollton Warrior Bas-
ketball Team and coaches Mike Aukerman and Chris Mallernee. Some of the boys called Bingo, led the pledge and offered a group prayer. The pulled pork was smoked by Greg and Amy Harkless. Haynam’s Sweet Corn provided the entire crew with sweet corn for the day. The center’s kitchen staff also prepared baked potatoes, cut watermelon and
drinks. “Our seniors are so thankful for the opportunity to continue sharing lunch and socialization together during that week,” said Director Tonya Howell. “We really appreciate those that helped make picnic week possible. We were also glad that some of the Carroll Golden Age Retreat residents came for Bingo and lunch one day.”

Carrollton Cross Country teammates did a great a job cleaning up the square last week. From the center to the back are Camryn Barker, Hayden Burgett and Elizabeth Potts. Also helping out were Tristen Michel, Kale Barkin and Evan Brace.
Cross Country Team cleans up downtown
Members of Carrollton High School Cross Country Team had some fun in spite of the hard work and warm temperatures last week. The team gathered on the square to clean out flower beds, pick up trash, and clean up anything else that stood in the way of beauty. A few kids were hesitant at first to pull weeds until they were absolutely convinced as to what was a weed and what was an actual flower. A few kids from the team went up to what is now Carrollton Elementary School on Third Street to paint the curb strips and clean up a few other things.

Today, he is a sergeant with the Minerva Police Department. He and his wife, Emily, have a daughter, Grayce Gardner and live in Minerva.

St. Clairsville blanks Tailgate to Touchdowns set for Aug. 30 Warriors soccer team in season opener ST. CLAIRSVILLE - The Carrollton boys soccer team opened their season on the road against the St. Clairsville Red Devils Friday. The Red Devils jumped out to a commanding lead and never slowed up in the opener, taking a 6-0 lead into halftime. St. Clairsville added another run in the second half, blanking the Warriors 7-0. “St. Clairsville has a good team, but we started out and sloppy incredibly disorganized,” said Carrollton Coach A.J. Atkinson. “The Red Devils really didn’t do anything too fancy to pull ahead. We were just lazy getting back on defense and did not take care of the ball when we had it. We made adjustments by the second half and played much better. It would have been a different game if we played the first half like we did the
second.” Atkinson said the team’s goalie played well in the net. “Evan Meek had a great game in goal for us. All of his saves were well earned, including at least two saves when he was one-onone with the attacker,” he said. “The score could have easily been a lot worse. I’m excited to see what he can do for us in a full season in goal this year.” Atkinson says his team will learn from the loss and move on. “I don’t think we were in game mode until the second half, and that’s on me as a head coach. We will learn from this game and improve from here,” he said. Carrollton is now 0-1 on the year. The Warriors will be back in action Tuesday, Aug. 27 at home against the Canton South Wildcats.
The Carroll County Farm Bureau along with the Carrollton FFA Chapter and Ohio FFA Camp Muskingum is hosting the 11th annual Tailgate to Touchdowns at the Carrollton Warriors’ first home football game of the season on Friday, Aug. 30, 5:30-7 p.m., at Community Field.

Leesville council OKs wastewater repairs
By JACQUIE HUMPHREY
FPS Correspondent At the August meeting of the Leesville Village Council, two estimates were approved to Workman Industrial Construction of Kent, Ohio. Mayor John Traxler presented the two separate proposals to council, the first in the amount of $8,885 and the second in the amount of $9,720, both for work at a Green Street residence to resolve issues stemming from the wastewater system hook-up. Traxler told council that he would like to begin with this one project to determine how working with Workman Industrial in the future may be for the village. Council discussed the catch basin work that needs done in the village and unanimously agreed to the expenditures. In other discussion, Council President Kaitlin Bernhart said that she believes council should consider hiring a part time employee for at least mowing and plowing.
Traxler said that he is willing to continue mowing for the time being and will assist with plowing in the winter, if necessary, and suggested council consider the matter further before taking action. A discussion took place, and Fiscal Officer Bernhart suggested doing a background check and drug screen prior to hiring a new employee, should that be council’s decision. It was agreed that a part time employee for the village could be employed elsewhere, also, if that employment was somewhat flexible. Council also agreed that developing a job description would be in everyone’s best interest. This matter was tabled until the September meeting with no action taken. In other action, council: - Approved expenses totaling $3,786.46. - Heard Fiscal Officer Bernhart report that she had attended a budget hearing with the Carroll County Commissioners and was advised that the village can expect approximately $5,000 additional funding this year. - Learned that there is a garden at a South Union Street prop-
erty that is growing onto, and obstructing a sidewalk. Council agreed to issue a letter to the property owner to advise their tenant to resolve this issue. - Was advised by Councilman Bruce Palmer that a resident has offered to do the mowing for the village for $250 per month. Fiscal Officer Bernhart advised that to do this work contractually for the village they would have to be bonded and insured. - Learned that there are no utility billing issues to report at this time. - Discussed accepting the annex of Faith Community Church as a gift to the village if grant funds are available to tear it down, and have the property to use as a green space. Further research will have to be done before a decision can be made. No action taken. - Was advised that the annual Leesville Volunteer Firemen’s fish fry will be held at Faith Community Church on Saturday, Sept. 7. This event will also have a parade and games. - Set the next regular meeting of the Leesville Village Council for Tuesday, Sept. 10 at 7 p.m. in Village Hall.
