From The Front
She is ready for the commitment. She loves Jamestown and wants to be a voice in her town.
John Capes
Q. A business owner approaches you with a request to provide funding to allow them to update their building’s appearance. How would you approach this situation?
Capes said it is important to better understand what the situation is. To find out what they are trying to accomplish for the funds they’re asking for. It is important to educate on the process itself. There are a series of steps. Councilmembers point them in directions where they can find better resources to help. He feels very strongly about the businesses in Jamestown. The Town itself is not in a position to fund individual businesses.
Q. Where are your favorite places to spend time in Jamestown and why?
Capes listed Southern Roots, Full Moon Oyster Bar, Potent Potables, Southern Junk, Cakes by B’s Blue House Bakery. The number of shops that are in town are worth frequenting. People who are most engaged with the town know all those businesses, know the owners and understand Jamestown for what it is.
Q. The Town has several projects which were left unfunded this year, which residents have stated are a “high priority.” How would you propose those projects be completed with the limited funds available.
The Council starts in January assessing what the budget needs are going to be for the coming year, which begins six months later. Included is a list of must do, should do and could do projects. Council members have to be objective and look at intelligent spending. They try to prioritize the facets of the town based on the situa-
tion and what the Town can afford to do. It’s important to get feedback from the people in the town.
Q. Some business owners have expressed interest in formulating a “social district” which would allow patrons to consume alcohol in open containers along Main Street. How do you feel about this and do you have concerns or ways to implement it?
Capes said the Council has to look at things objectively and balance out if it really makes sense. As traffic continues to drop on Main Street because of the bypass, the Council has to be realistic about having this environment and have to protect the people that live in it and the people who come to visit. It doesn’t make sense to do it here.
Q. If you received a $1 million grant to use for the town in any way you choose, what would you do with it and why?
Capes would look at some of the local properties to find out what might be within budget. He would try to take advantage of trying to improve some parking situations. He would also look at Jamestown Elementary and make improvements to that school.
Q. Nationally, forever chemicals such as PFAs and PFOs and 1.4 dioxane have become a hot topic with regards to water quality. How do you plan to address concerns at the local level?
Capes drinks a glass of local tap water at every meeting and believes the water quality in town is not only good, it is exceptional. His research shows that some things may become hazardous in the future. It is not something to arbitrarily try to address up front. The Town must see what guidance is given on a national and state level before anything can be done at a local level.
Sarah
Glanville
Q. On occasion, people make the claim that the Town is “not transparent.” How do you feel about this issue and how do you propose to enhance transparency?
Glanville has never found a lack of transparency with the Town. Staff has always been open to her questions. Council meetings are open and are now on YouTube. Council members have to be prepared and that takes some prep work, but there are no secret emails among committee or council members. There are limited resources and if there is an influx of requests for information, there’s only so much that can be done.
Q. The recent D.R. Horton (Johnson property) development has created some division. How would you propose to unify the community once again?
It is very divisive mostly because it is a huge change. She thinks there is some unity on it, but maybe not on all aspects of it. Some people don’t want it, some want it a certain way. The Town did an excellent job when they hired the consultant to get input from the community. He said there must be a development agreement. Town Council has to make it the best it can be with input from the citizens of Jamestown.
Q. If someone came to you with a proposal to build a new piece of public infrastructure, for example sidewalks to their neighborhood, how would you evaluate whether that project was worth implementing?
Glanville responded that it was not up to her alone to say the Town was going to do that sidewalk project. There is a process where projects get vetted through their urgency, feasibility, budget and availability of grants. As a council member she would advocate for the person and talk to others to see if it is really a priority.
Q. Inflationary pressure, disruption to supply chains and increasing costs make it difficult to forecast budgets. What tools would you use in the annual budget preparation to help the town with these issues?
Common sense says you cannot spend if you don’t have it coming in. Recently there have been some increases in taxes and fees on vehicles. Glanville is in favor of those. They will help. It’s a burden on the town and on families when fees and taxes go up. She
hopes people could get exemptions on fees if they fall below a certain income level, etc.
Q. What are the Town Council members’ obligations to their constituents, members of the Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) and the community as a whole?
Glanville said that is who the Council answers to. The constituents are the people who vote but you cannot leave out the people who live in the ETJ. They love Jamestown just as much as the people who live in the incorporated part. They deserve a voice and should be given that voice. Same with the business owners. They make the community a success and must have their voices heard.
Q. How do you feel about silencing the train whistle for trains, which use the rail corridor through Jamestown?
Glanville does not have strong opinions about that. The train was here before current residents were. However, if it’s not a safety issue, she has no problem with stopping the whistle. Experts in the field know the whistle is blown for a reason.
Andrew Kinzie
Q. As a council member, you may often be on the receiving end of criticism. How would you handle that criticism from members of the public?
Respect their opinion. If he doesn’t know the answer to their statement, he will try to find an answer. Kinzie would try to understand why they feel that way and help them understand why the decision was the way it was. Instead of shutting them down, provide the information.
Q. How would you increase efficiencies within the town government? Kinzie would do a program analysis throughout each division of the town. This would check the accountability process, see what the steps and measurements are to ensure that employees are working fully and that they have an equal workload. He would check what contracts are being offered and why. See where costs can be cut and how to hold employees accountable while ensuring they’re adequately paid and compensated.
Q. A resident asks you a question you don’t have an answer for. Where do you find the correct information and how would you respond to the inquiry?
Kinzie would find the person in charge of that area to get the correct answer. Do research and try to find factual information that backs up either what they’re saying or his belief in the matter and go from there to address the issue. Try to come up with the compromise, being cordial and respectful to their opinion even if it’s a differing opinion than yours.
Q. If you could change one thing in the town’s zoning code, what would that be and why?
He would implement a little bit of mixed-use zoning downtown to bring in more office space on the main level with three-or-four-story buildings with residential above it. Possibly some lowor fixed- income housing. Kinzie would work with the owner of Oakdale Mills to see if there are development options there.
Q. What is the biggest need for the Town of Jamestown and how do you propose to fill that need?
The biggest need currently is transparency. If you look at water service and storm water management, there was a large spill last year at Alberdingk Boley. 16,000 gallons is what they know leaked. Anything over 1,000 gallons is supposed to be reported to all citizens in the community. That eventually leaked into the town’s water supply, Randleman Lake. That was not mentioned on social media, town news, or local news agencies. People should easily be able to find that information on the website and comments should be posted.
Q. How would you use the Comprehensive Plan in your decision-making processes for the town?
Kinzie would look at it, the analysis that has been done and the cost benefit analysis if they have been performed. He would look at what provides the most benefit and most impact to the citizens and try to implement those policies and issues first. Funding received from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) could have been used for the storm water issues instead of raising water service fees and using the money on the parks.
Following the question and answer session, candidates were allowed closing remarks before the meeting adjourned.
Candidate Larry Lain was absent and Duane Willis has withdrawn from the race.

WEEK OF OCT. 9, 2023
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) An upcoming trip could create some problems with your schedule unless you tie up as many loose ends as possible before you head out the door. Ask a friend or colleague to help you.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Being eager to start a new project is fine. However, moving ahead without knowing what will actually be expected of you could cause a problem down the line. Ask some questions.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Getting through some recent challenges in good shape might give you a false sense of security. Don’t relax your guard. You need to be prepared for what else could happen.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Caution is still advised, even though you think you’re as prepared as you need to be at the moment. Keep in mind that change is in your aspect, and you should expect the unexpected.

Haunted Mansion (PG13) — Even a cast filled with stars new and old couldn’t save this film from bombing at the box office ($109.7 million gross after a $150 million budget). Based on the Disney Parks attraction, Rosario Dawson (Clerks 3) plays widowed mother Gabbie, who moves into Gracey Manor with her son, Travis. They soon learn the mansion is haunted and are forced to stay inside until their curse is lifted. Through the help of Father Kent (Owen Wilson) and his convenient connections, they’re able to assemble a dream team so they can
LEO (July 23 to August 22)
The Lion’s gift of persuasion helps you get your points across, even to some of your most negative naysayers in the workplace. Also, an old friend might seek you out for some advice.
VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Being sure of your convictions is fine, but leave some room for dissenting opinions. You might learn something that could help you avoid a possible problem later on.
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Getting good legal advice on what your rights actually are is the first step toward resolving that pesky problem so that it doesn’t reemerge at a later date. Good luck.
SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Longtime relationships work well this week, whether they’re personal or professional. It’s also a good time to invite new friends and colleagues into your life.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) This is a good week to do the research that will help you uncover irre-
escape Gracey Manor. Tiffany Haddish, Danny DeVito and Jamie Lee Curtis star in this spooky comedy, and Winona Ryder even makes an uncredited appearance. Out on Oct. 4. (Disney+)
Fair Play (R) — Bridgerton’s Phoebe Dynevor and Oppenheimer’s Alden Ehrenreich lead this sexy thriller that premieres on Oct. 6. Dynevor and Ehrenreich respectively play Emily and Luke, a newly engaged couple who also work at the same hedge fund firm together. The two decide to keep their relationship under wraps from the office, but when a better position at the
futable facts for a project; this will back you up on your new venture when you most need it.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Change is an important factor in your aspect this week and could affect something you might have thought was immune to any sort of adjustment or “alteration.”
AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Being asked to share someone’s deeply personal confidence might be flattering, but accepting could be unwise. Decline gracefully but firmly.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20) As wise as you are, you could still be misled by someone who seems to be sincere but really isn’t. Take more time to assess the situation before making any commitments.
BORN THIS WEEK: You like to face challenges that others might try to avoid, and by doing so, you set an example of courage for all.

or in later years by taking an online class. Now the number of meetings required and dues is based on age and the number of years participating in the club.
“Our members look forward to the meetings,” current president Jerry Brett said. “Fellowship is more intense, and the purpose of Rotary is to be involved. Attendance is required and taken, but the policy is not as strict. People’s lifestyles have changed, but they still
In addition to fresh produce and meat, there will be shelf-stable food, bread, and grab-and-go snacks.
The partnership is funded through a $9,000 investment from the Titan Link and the GTCC Foundation.
Titan Link provides resources and information that assists GTCC students, staff, and faculty with non-academic challenges such as housing, transportation, food insecurity, childcare, and emergency loan/grant/ scholarship application access for GTCC.
“This partnership is going to impact and benefit so many people on our campus and throughout the community,” said Natashia McEachern, interim director for Titan Link. “A number of our students struggle with a number of life barriers. The opportunity to grocery shop for free, get fresh produce and meat, will help ease some of life’s burdens for them and their families. The same is true for so many other members of our community.”
Out of the Garden Project, a Triad-based nonprofit organization, began in 2008 serving a few families with food on Friday so they would not go hungry over the weekend.
want to participate.”
Rotarians value diversity, equity and inclusion of all people. In 1989, the Council on Legislation voted to admit women into Rotary clubs. Since then, Jamestown has had several women participate in its club and currently has two women on role.
“I have learned women are a big catalyst to helping get things done,” Brett said, noting their willingness to serve.
“I joined Rotary to set a good example for our chil-
dren, not just talk the talk but also walk the walk through service,” Stephanie Johnson said. “My husband Benjy and our sons always support Rotary events and help when they can. Truly it’s a family affair when you join our club.
“I don’t consider myself a minority as a woman. I’m a club member just like everyone else. Our Jamestown club is a special group of people and truly like family – great mentors, friends,
“We are honored to partner with this leading academic institution in striving to provide food for those in need in our midst both at GTCC and in the community,” said Don Milholin, executive director and president, co-founder of Out of the Garden Project.
With the help of hundreds of volunteers and donors, the organization has distributed 20 million meals since, distributed four million meals last year, distributes 325,000 meals monthly and serves 2,000 students and families each week.
Fresh Mobile Markets, an Out of the Garden program, serves over 3,000 families every month throughout 20 locations in the Piedmont Triad. Families can expect to leave a Fresh Mobile Market with around 65 pounds of food.

and a variety of personalities. They are a blessing in my life in so many ways. Each has shared their own unique talents or experiences that have helped me grow as a person, parent and community member.”
In the past, members held a ladies’ night out and also invited wives to the annual Christmas party. Now, although not official members, many spouses help with club projects.
Rotary clubs support international projects such as the eradication of polio and national projects, i.e. donating to clubs in Maui so they can help their communities. But the main focus for Jamestown Rotary is local needs.
“We have a heart for our community so that is our primary mission,” Senell said.
The Bo Stafford Memorial Golf Classic honors one of the group’s charter members and raises funds for “Feeding Lisa’s Kids,” and the annual Jamestown Rotary Horse Show raises money for a variety of other local charities. The horse show was originally held on the athletic field at Jamestown Public School.
“It was a big event for the community,” Senell said.
“In addition to competition among horses and riders there was entertainment on many levels including music, dog shows, a chuck wagon and more. When we could
no longer use the school property and our members were aging we joined with the Piedmont Horseman’s Association and moved the show to the Piedmont Saddle Club in Colfax.
“Most of the money we earn from the horse show comes from sponsorships. Participants in the show don’t come just for ribbons and trophies but also to gain points to help move them up in standing over the season. Although different, it is still a fun event.”
In 1999, the Rotary Club began sponsoring the Christmas parade, which had been started by the Jamestown ABWA (American Business Women’s Association). Not a fundraiser, it is more a gift the group provides for the community. In recent years Rotarians have received help from the staff at the Ragsdale YMCA and members of the Jamestown Business Association.
Members also participate in hands-on service such as the community Litter Sweep and plan to help Family Service of the Piedmont with an upcoming project.
Technology has changed much of what Rotary looks like today.
“Every Sunday I send out emails to let members know what is coming up,” Brett said. “Our club also has an active social media presence with a website and on Facebook.
“For a while Rotary got away from the networking aspect of the club, but I see it coming back more now. The four-way test that Rotarians use lends itself to people you would want to do business with.”
“But we continue to see ourselves as a service organization,” Senell said. “That is why we do what we do and will continue as long as our bodies can keep up with our hearts.”
The Jamestown Rotary Club plans to hold a celebration of its 70 years of service to the community in conjunction with one of its December meetings.
“We want to encompass the past as we embrace the future,” Brett said.
Anyone who would like to take part in the Christmas parade may contact Cliff Paddock at jamestownncrotary@gmail. com
Rotary Four-Way Test
The Four-Way Test, which has been translated into more than 100 languages, obligates every Rotarian to apply four tests to all that they think, say and do in their personal and professional relationships: Is it the truth?
Is it fair to all concerned?
Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
Will it be beneficial to all concerned?
