Residents oppose proposal for unified trash collection in township<br />

By Jane Maiolo<br />

One <strong>Perrysburg</strong> Township<br />

resident’s continued<br />

push for a preferred trash<br />

collector in <strong>the</strong> township is<br />

facing opposition from<br />

o<strong>the</strong>r residents.<br />

At <strong>the</strong> <strong>April</strong> 4 trustees’<br />

meeting, Kathleen Gibson<br />

<strong>of</strong> Duxbury Lane pressed<br />

<strong>the</strong> trustees for an update<br />

on <strong>the</strong> possibility <strong>of</strong> having<br />

a preferred refuse collector<br />

service township residents.<br />

“I’m here for my<br />

bimonthly update,” she<br />

said.<br />

Ms. Gibson noted that<br />

only Waste Management<br />

and Republic Services/<br />

Allied Waste are possible<br />

providers and acknowledged<br />

what Trustee Bob<br />

Mack had said at an earlier<br />

meeting–that Waste Management<br />

is not interested in<br />

becoming a preferred<br />

provider.<br />

She repeated her desire<br />

to see <strong>the</strong> issue placed on<br />

<strong>the</strong> ballot, pointing out <strong>the</strong><br />

low fee Lake Township<br />

received several years ago<br />

when it established a preferred<br />

provider.<br />

Mr. Mack responded<br />

that he is waiting to hear<br />

from <strong>of</strong>ficials at Republic<br />

Services/Allied Waste to<br />

see if <strong>the</strong> company would<br />

be interested in serving residents<br />

at a lower rate than<br />

most are currently receiving.<br />

Trustee Craig LaHote<br />

believes <strong>the</strong> trustees would<br />

be overextending <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

authority by pushing for a<br />

preferred provider.<br />

He said <strong>the</strong> township<br />

has looked at <strong>the</strong> issue <strong>of</strong>f<br />

and on for five years. “We<br />

couldn’t find one example<br />

<strong>of</strong> a preferred provider that<br />

works, and I’ve seen no<br />

evidence that it can save<br />

money,” he added.<br />

Bridget O’Halloran <strong>of</strong><br />

Belmont Meadows objected<br />

to <strong>the</strong> idea <strong>of</strong> an exclusive<br />

or preferred trash hauler.<br />

She is pleased with her<br />

trash collection rate and<br />

said she does not want to<br />

be told to pay more “so<br />

o<strong>the</strong>rs can get a deal.”<br />

Ms. O’Halloran questioned<br />

Ms. Gibson on<br />

whe<strong>the</strong>r a representative<br />

survey had been conducted<br />

to gauge interest <strong>of</strong> township<br />

residents. Ms. Gibson<br />

admitted that no survey<br />

was done.<br />

The Belmont Meadows<br />

resident also questioned <strong>the</strong><br />

ability for <strong>the</strong> township to<br />

obtain a better rate given<br />

rising gas prices.<br />

“Lake’s quote was<br />

before gas prices got so<br />

high. I don’t think that’s<br />

realistic now,” she said.<br />

Kathy Rolsten <strong>of</strong><br />

McCarty Drive, also<br />

expressed concern over <strong>the</strong><br />

proposal. “I don’t know<br />

much about townships, but<br />

I appreciate <strong>the</strong> ability to<br />

make choices,” she said,<br />

adding that she doesn’t<br />

want to lose that liberty.<br />

O<strong>the</strong>r Business<br />

In o<strong>the</strong>r business, <strong>the</strong><br />

trustees:<br />

•Approved <strong>the</strong> purchase<br />

<strong>of</strong> protective vests from<br />

Phoenix Safety Outfitters<br />

for <strong>the</strong> special response<br />

team at a cost <strong>of</strong> $20,760.<br />

Police Chief Mark Hetrick<br />

said $16,740 <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> cost<br />

will be reimbursed by o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

law enforcement agencies<br />

that are part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> SRT.<br />

On Saturday, <strong>the</strong> Northwest Ohio Conservative Coalition (NWOCC) held its annual Tax Day Rally at Hood Park. Despite <strong>the</strong> rainy wea<strong>the</strong>r,<br />

approximately 100 people attended <strong>the</strong> event. “This is not a Republican, Democrat or Libertarian party event. It is for anyone interested in<br />

having <strong>the</strong> citizens’ voices heard in <strong>the</strong> political process,” said Linda Bowyer, NWOCC member. “On <strong>the</strong> eve <strong>of</strong> tax day, it’s time to raise our<br />

voice.”<br />

Guest speaker for <strong>the</strong> rally was Gary Rathbun, host <strong>of</strong> “Eye on Your Money” on WSPD. Mr. Rathbun told <strong>the</strong> group that he is nei<strong>the</strong>r a<br />

Republican, Democrat or Libertarian, he is a conservative who thinks <strong>the</strong> Constitution is truly an inspired document.<br />

“Nobody in <strong>the</strong> world, no people in <strong>the</strong> world have <strong>the</strong> ability to create, produce and thrive better than <strong>the</strong> American people,” Mr. Rathbun<br />

said. “No people in <strong>the</strong> world are more voluntarily, more generous to o<strong>the</strong>rs in need and I emphasis voluntarily generous. We are a great<br />

country made up <strong>of</strong> great people. We have temporarily lost our way, I think. But we will be great again. It is important to note that Washington<br />

is not what will make us great. We need to make ourselves great individually.”<br />

Also on Saturday, <strong>the</strong> Values Bus made a stop in <strong>Perrysburg</strong>. The bus, supported by <strong>the</strong> Heritage Foundation and <strong>the</strong> Family Research<br />

Council, is visiting cities and towns nationwide to advance <strong>the</strong> cause <strong>of</strong> fiscal and moral responsibilities. Representing <strong>the</strong> organizations at<br />

<strong>the</strong> rally were Connie Mackey, president <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Family Research Council Political Action Committee, and Genevieve Wood, vice president <strong>of</strong><br />

Last week, <strong>the</strong> Toledo<br />

Area Regional Transit<br />

Authority (TARTA) issued a<br />

release stating service in<br />

<strong>Perrysburg</strong> will end on September<br />

22.<br />

The statement reads:<br />

“Following Ohio Revised<br />

Code (ORC) 306.55, <strong>the</strong><br />

TARTA Board <strong>of</strong> Trustees<br />

passed a resolution at <strong>the</strong><br />

February 2, <strong>2012</strong>, monthly<br />

meeting to continue bus service<br />

to <strong>the</strong> City <strong>of</strong> <strong>Perrysburg</strong>,<br />

Ohio, for six months<br />

should <strong>the</strong> voters decide to<br />

exit <strong>the</strong> transit authority at<br />

<strong>the</strong> March 6, <strong>2012</strong> election.<br />

Following passage <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

ballot measure and with <strong>the</strong><br />

certified election results <strong>of</strong><br />

March 22, TARTA service<br />

for <strong>Perrysburg</strong> will <strong>the</strong>refore<br />

end September 22, <strong>2012</strong>.<br />

“Public transportation<br />

services affected include<br />

regular line and express<br />

routes, Call-A-Ride, Park-N-<br />

Ride, TARPS, Muddy Shuttle<br />

and Walleye Shuttle,<br />

Round-trip Muddy Shuttle<br />

Third Field in downtown<br />

Toledo will be provided for<br />

<strong>the</strong> Mud Hens’ <strong>2012</strong> regular<br />

season schedule.”<br />

TARTA board members<br />

from <strong>Perrysburg</strong>, Rossford<br />

and Sylvania Township<br />

opposed <strong>the</strong> resolution.<br />

Members from Toledo, Sylvania,<br />

Waterville, Maumee,<br />

Ottawa Hills and Spencer<br />

Township voted in favor <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> six month date.<br />

Kevin Rantanen, <strong>Perrysburg</strong><br />

TARTA representative,<br />

said members who opposed<br />

<strong>the</strong> deadline date urged <strong>the</strong><br />

board to extend service for<br />

nine months providing service<br />

until <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> <strong>2012</strong>,<br />

which was to no avail.<br />

On <strong>the</strong> March 6 primary<br />

ballot, <strong>Perrysburg</strong> voters<br />

made <strong>the</strong> final decision to<br />

withdraw from <strong>the</strong> transit<br />

system–2,715 to 2,072.<br />

Even though <strong>Perrysburg</strong><br />

taxpayers will pay TARTA<br />

through December 31,<br />

2 0 1 2 – a p p r o x i m a t e l y<br />

$375,000–TARTA has elected<br />

to end service prior to<br />

year end.<br />

Earlier in <strong>the</strong> year, city<br />

administrators, council and<br />

State Representative Randy<br />

Gardner requested TARTA<br />

to ei<strong>the</strong>r continue service or<br />

contract with <strong>Perrysburg</strong> for<br />

services at a cost <strong>of</strong> one dollar.<br />

<strong>Perrysburg</strong> councilman<br />

and chairman <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> city’s<br />

health, sanitation and public<br />

utilities committee Todd<br />

Grayson expressed his disappointment<br />

in <strong>the</strong> transit<br />

authority’s decision to end<br />

service on September 22.<br />

“Unfortunately, TARTA<br />

has decided to take roughly<br />

$400,000 from <strong>Perrysburg</strong><br />

taxpayers without providing<br />

any services in return. I’m <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> opinion that if TARTA<br />

was honest and compassionate,<br />

that <strong>the</strong>y would continue<br />

services as <strong>the</strong>y had been<br />

planning to do before March<br />

6, or return our money so<br />

that we could pay someone<br />

else to provide service for<br />

<strong>the</strong> rest <strong>of</strong> <strong>2012</strong>. They have<br />

been paid for this whole<br />

year and that is easily<br />

demonstrated by <strong>the</strong> fact that<br />

TARTA’s budget for <strong>2012</strong><br />

was unaffected by <strong>the</strong> vote.<br />

They haven’t even <strong>of</strong>fered<br />

reduced services to help <strong>the</strong><br />

A SWAT team recently<br />

formed by <strong>the</strong> <strong>Perrysburg</strong><br />

Township Police Department<br />

will not include City<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>Perrysburg</strong> police <strong>of</strong>ficers.<br />

At a March 27 meeting<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>Perrysburg</strong> City Council,<br />

Councilor Maria Ermie<br />

questioned why <strong>the</strong> city is<br />

not participating.<br />

Police Chief Dan Paez<br />

told council <strong>the</strong> city was<br />

invited to become a part <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> new Nor<strong>the</strong>rn Wood<br />

Regional SWAT unit by<br />

<strong>Perrysburg</strong> Township Police<br />

Chief Mark Hetrick.<br />

It will include Lake<br />

Township, Northwood,<br />

Owens Community College<br />

and Walbridge.<br />

Chief Paez noted that<br />

two <strong>of</strong> his <strong>of</strong>ficers already<br />

are part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Wood County<br />

Sheriff ’s SWAT<br />

team–and one supervises a<br />

special response unit.<br />

“When we joined <strong>the</strong><br />

sheriff’s team, we made a<br />

commitment and have<br />

invested time and training,”<br />

he said.<br />

The response time by <strong>the</strong><br />

sheriff ’s team has been<br />

prompt, <strong>the</strong> chief said.<br />

Ano<strong>the</strong>r benefit, he<br />

noted, is that <strong>the</strong> two <strong>Perrysburg</strong><br />

<strong>of</strong>ficers are sworn<br />

in as deputies, so <strong>the</strong> sheriff<br />

takes on <strong>the</strong> liability at<br />

SWAT scenes.<br />

The sheriff ’s SWAT<br />

team is called to assist with<br />

high-risk search warrants or<br />

situations that become<br />

volatile, such as those<br />

involving barricaded gunmen,<br />

hostages and active<br />

school or workplace shooters.<br />

“For us, it’s been a good<br />

relationship,” Chief Paez<br />

said. “If it isn’t broken, I<br />

don’t see a change is needed.”<br />

<strong>Perrysburg</strong> is welcome<br />

to join <strong>the</strong> township’s team<br />

in <strong>the</strong> future, he added.<br />

Zoning Amended,<br />

Annexation Pending<br />

Council amended <strong>the</strong><br />

city zoning map to zone <strong>the</strong><br />

Valleybrook Realty/John<br />

Kurfess property on Five<br />

Point Road as R-5 two-family<br />

residential zoning.<br />

Councilman Tim<br />

McCarthy said <strong>the</strong> issue<br />

was discussed at a March<br />

28 planning and zoning<br />

committee meeting.<br />

At that meeting, Council<br />

President Joe Lawless said<br />

R-5 “is a good buffer” since<br />

<strong>the</strong> property is adjacent to<br />

Southview Estates mobile<br />

home park. He believes <strong>the</strong><br />

property owner would have<br />

trouble selling single family<br />

lots next to a mobile home<br />

park.<br />

The narrow 31.6-acre<br />

parcel, west <strong>of</strong> State Route<br />

25, was annexed into <strong>the</strong><br />

city in July 2011 from Middleton<br />

Township. It is currently<br />

vacant.<br />

In a separate case,<br />

Pamela O’Connell-Parson<br />

has petitioned for annexation<br />

for her property<br />

between Wilson and Lincoln<br />

streets adjacent to<br />

State Route 25.<br />

Council approved an<br />

ordinance stating all <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

city services applicable to<br />

<strong>the</strong> proposed annexation, as<br />

part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> process.<br />

Rehiring <strong>of</strong> Retirees<br />

A city policy on rehiring<br />

retirees was discussed by<br />

<strong>the</strong> personnel committee on<br />

elderly and disabled riders.<br />

They are willing to leave<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir riders out in <strong>the</strong> cold<br />

while <strong>the</strong>y keep <strong>the</strong> cash that<br />

was allocated for that service.<br />

“At <strong>the</strong> city level, we are<br />

looking at various options to<br />

help TARTA get out <strong>of</strong> its<br />

own way on this issue. We<br />

also are still pursuing a<br />

change in <strong>the</strong> law at <strong>the</strong> state<br />

level to force TARTA to do<br />

<strong>the</strong> right thing. It is really<br />

sad that we are talking about<br />

having to pass a law so that<br />

a public transit agency will<br />

actually serve <strong>the</strong> public that<br />

funds its operations, but this<br />

is exactly why we asked voters<br />

in <strong>Perrysburg</strong> to get out<br />

from under <strong>the</strong>ir thumb.<br />

“I really believe that Jim<br />

Gee [TARTA general manager]<br />

and <strong>the</strong> TARTA board<br />

members would come to<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir senses after <strong>the</strong> election<br />

and show Rossford and Sylvania<br />

Township, who also<br />

are considering leaving,<br />

what a great bunch <strong>of</strong> people<br />

<strong>the</strong>y are and how much <strong>the</strong>y<br />

care about transportation.<br />

Instead, <strong>the</strong>y doubled down<br />

Champaign.<br />

For <strong>the</strong> past 14 years, Mr.<br />

A crossing guard who<br />

would like to retire and <strong>the</strong>n<br />

be rehired by <strong>the</strong> city<br />

prompted <strong>the</strong> discussion,<br />

according to Councilor<br />

Ermie.<br />

In 2006, an administrative<br />

policy was drafted on<br />

<strong>the</strong> re-employment <strong>of</strong><br />

OPERS retirees.<br />

Mayor Nelson Evans<br />

told <strong>the</strong> committee that he<br />

does not have an opinion<br />

for or against it, but if<br />

enacted <strong>the</strong> policy should<br />

state that <strong>the</strong> employee is<br />

rehired as a new employee<br />

with <strong>the</strong> beginning salary<br />

and eliminating longevity<br />

benefits.<br />

The mayor also believes<br />

<strong>the</strong> employee should be<br />

rehired for no longer than<br />

seven years.<br />

He told <strong>the</strong> committee<br />

that rehiring would save<br />

city funds because <strong>the</strong><br />

salary would be less, and<br />

would be less, and<br />

have to be a letter <strong>of</strong> understanding,<br />

Councilor Ermie<br />

said.<br />

Councilman Todd<br />

Grayson told <strong>the</strong> committee<br />

he has “a fundamental<br />

problem with double dipping.”<br />

Councilor Ermie said<br />

<strong>the</strong> committee did not take<br />

any action on <strong>the</strong> issue.<br />

O<strong>the</strong>r Business<br />

In o<strong>the</strong>r business, council:<br />

•Authorized an agreement<br />

with Regulatory<br />

Compliance Consultants to<br />

develop, implement and<br />

maintain <strong>the</strong> <strong>2012</strong> safety<br />

program including training<br />

for <strong>the</strong> public service division,<br />

at a cost not to exceed<br />

$33,400.<br />

•Approved an agreement<br />

with <strong>the</strong> Arcadis engineering<br />

firm, not to exceed<br />

$25,000, for revised engineering<br />

and designs for<br />

Cherry Street sewer district<br />

209.<br />

Arcadis’ preliminary<br />

work discovered that property<br />

owners could eliminate<br />

<strong>the</strong> sanitary flow in an<br />

existing private combined<br />

sewer at <strong>the</strong> rear <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

properties and direct o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

flow into a new storm<br />

sewer on Mulberry Street.<br />

As a result <strong>of</strong> this<br />

change, <strong>the</strong>re would be a<br />

single sewer connection for<br />

all three businesses in <strong>the</strong><br />

area; a deep sewer on Indiana<br />

Avenue would be<br />

replaced with a much shallower<br />

sewer outside <strong>the</strong><br />

paved area, resulting in less<br />

inconvenience to motorists;<br />

would preserve vehicle<br />

access via Indiana to two <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> properties; and reduce<br />

overall construction costs.<br />

•Approved updates to<br />

<strong>the</strong> city’s sewer master plan<br />

and cost recovery plan,<br />

affecting development currently<br />

pending along<br />

Roachton and Hull Prairie<br />

roads and State Route 25.<br />

Arcadis prepared <strong>the</strong><br />

updates, which are on file<br />

for public review at <strong>the</strong><br />

city’s planning and zoning<br />

<strong>of</strong>fice.<br />

•Renewed a memo <strong>of</strong><br />

understanding with <strong>Perrysburg</strong><br />

Amateur Baseball/<br />

S o f t b a l l C o m m i s s i o n<br />

(PABSC) effective through<br />

TARTA will end service in <strong>Perrysburg</strong><br />

➧Continued from page 1<br />

on <strong>the</strong>ir indefensible position.<br />

I hope <strong>the</strong>y change<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir minds. It is not too<br />

late.<br />

“In <strong>the</strong> meantime, we are<br />

focused on making sure that<br />

<strong>the</strong> alternative plan for 2013<br />

and beyond is cost effective<br />

and responsive to consumer<br />

needs. To that end, things<br />

are going well and are on<br />

time and budget. I am excited<br />

for <strong>the</strong> future and I hope<br />

that we can find a fair resolution<br />

to <strong>the</strong> end-<strong>of</strong>-year gap<br />

issue.”<br />

Rep. Gardner stated he<br />

believes TARTA should<br />

serve <strong>Perrysburg</strong> residents<br />

through <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> year.<br />

“TARTA will receive<br />

property taxes from <strong>Perrysburg</strong><br />

citizens for all <strong>of</strong> <strong>2012</strong>,<br />

yet it refuses to discuss a<br />

contractual arrangement,<br />

which is permitted by law,<br />

whereby citizens would<br />

continue to be served for <strong>the</strong><br />

entire year. If this is all<br />

about truly serving people,<br />

this will not be TARTA’s<br />

final decision,” he said. “No<br />

matter what, I will continue<br />

to support alternatives that<br />

are fair for <strong>the</strong> citizens <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>Perrysburg</strong> and any o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

community that seeks better<br />

services at lower costs.”<br />

Mayor Nelson Evans<br />

stated that <strong>the</strong> city will continue<br />

to work with Representative<br />

Gardner’s <strong>of</strong>fice to<br />

address <strong>the</strong> issue legislatively.<br />

“O<strong>the</strong>r alternatives are<br />

being explored should those<br />

efforts fail,” he added.<br />

resources to support a healthy<br />

pregnancy by providing temporary<br />

housing, case management<br />

and supportive services.<br />

From 2000 to 2008, Path<br />

pregnancy and post-birth<br />

supportive services to more<br />

than 70 single women who<br />

did not have <strong>the</strong> resources to<br />

support <strong>the</strong>mselves or an<br />

infant child. In early 2009,<br />

Path to Life temporarily<br />

ceased operations to reorganize<br />

as an independent<br />

The Ohio State Highway<br />

Patrol is reminding drivers to<br />

keep <strong>the</strong>ir eyes and focus on<br />

<strong>the</strong> roadway while driving.<br />

From 2009 to 2011 <strong>the</strong>re<br />

were 31,231 crashes that were<br />

caused by distracted driving<br />

in Ohio. Seventy-four <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong>se crashes ended in a death<br />

and 7,825 included injuries.<br />

Distracted driving is any<br />

non-driving activity a person<br />

engages in that has potential<br />

to distract him or her from <strong>the</strong><br />

primary task <strong>of</strong> driving and<br />

increase <strong>the</strong> risk <strong>of</strong> crashing.<br />

Distractions can be visual<br />

–taking eyes <strong>of</strong>f <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> road;<br />

manual–taking hands <strong>of</strong>f <strong>the</strong><br />

wheel, or cognitive–taking<br />

<strong>the</strong> mind <strong>of</strong>f driving. Texting<br />

Highway Patrol reminds drivers<br />

to keep <strong>the</strong>ir eyes on <strong>the</strong> road<br />

John Born, Patrol superintendent.<br />

“Distracted driving is<br />

unsafe, irresponsible and in a<br />

split second, its consequences<br />

can be devastating.”<br />

According to <strong>the</strong> National<br />

was recently honored at <strong>the</strong><br />

National Football Hall <strong>of</strong><br />

Fame Wistert Chapter’s 50th<br />

Awards Dinner. Mr.<br />

<strong>the</strong> Distinguished Service<br />

Award at <strong>the</strong> event held<br />

March 12, at Stranahan Hall.<br />

This is Mr. Pohlman’s<br />

34th year as an educator, and<br />

his 33rd year at <strong>Perrysburg</strong><br />

rector,” said PHS Principal<br />

Dr. Michael Short. “Not only<br />

is Ray a terrific detail person<br />

in a job that requires attention<br />

to <strong>the</strong> small tasks, but he<br />

is a compassionate leader.<br />

His recognition for service is<br />

fitting as he is committed to<br />

helping o<strong>the</strong>rs.<br />

“Coach Pohlman has<br />

never lost sight <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> fact<br />

that he is first and foremost<br />

an educator. His classroom<br />

has changed from a focus on<br />

exponents, variables and<br />

statistics to a focus on<br />

sportsmanship, teamwork<br />

and self-improvement; although<br />

it is not unusual to<br />

stop by Ray’s <strong>of</strong>fice and see<br />

him tutoring students in<br />

ma<strong>the</strong>matics just as excitedly<br />

as he coached football.<br />

It is part <strong>of</strong> Ray’s personality<br />

to give <strong>of</strong> himself<br />

humbly for o<strong>the</strong>rs.”<br />

Wood County ranks 9th in National<br />

Fourth Economy community Index<br />

Wood County ranked in<br />

<strong>the</strong> top 10 <strong>of</strong> small sized<br />

counties in <strong>the</strong> recent National<br />

Fourth Economy Community<br />

(FEC) index list.<br />

The county came in ninth<br />

in <strong>the</strong> category which features<br />

counties with populations<br />

<strong>of</strong> 100,000 to 150,000.<br />

“The ‘fourth economy’<br />

defines our nation’s current<br />

economy, reflecting a combination<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> previous three:<br />

agrarian, industrial and technological,”<br />

said Rich Overmoyer,<br />

Fourth Economy<br />

president and CEO. “This<br />

new index is intended to<br />

serve as a dashboard for community<br />

stakeholders to gauge<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir capacity to attract and<br />

retain modern investment.”<br />

The FEC index, released<br />

last week, measures performance<br />

in five areas–investment,<br />

talent,<br />

sustainability, place and diversity.<br />

These five benchmarks<br />

are considered <strong>the</strong> foundation<br />

for future economic success,<br />

‘Renovating <strong>Perrysburg</strong>’ program available on CD<br />

The <strong>Perrysburg</strong> Area Historic Museum, in conjunction with Historic <strong>Perrysburg</strong>, recently<br />

presented “Renovating <strong>Perrysburg</strong>–A Workshop” to its members, owners <strong>of</strong> historic<br />

homes, and <strong>the</strong> public. Kate MacPherson, <strong>of</strong> MacPherson Architects, moderated <strong>the</strong> program<br />

at Way Public Library and gave a general approach to renovation and <strong>the</strong> proper<br />

steps one should take. Mike Barthold discussed <strong>the</strong> Department <strong>of</strong> Interior Preservation<br />

Briefs Guideline to Renovation, Tim Castor spoke about reclaiming original windows<br />

and fabric preservation, and Dennis Leary shared his expertise on craftsmanship and<br />

woodworking. Since Mrs. MacPherson put all <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> program on a CD, PAHM invites anyone<br />

who is interested in viewing <strong>the</strong> program to call Phyllis Morton at 419-872-0846 to<br />

arrange to borrow <strong>the</strong> CD.<br />

and external<br />

Clark County, Georgia, received<br />

<strong>the</strong> highest FEC index<br />

score <strong>of</strong> 4.37 followed by<br />

Monroe County, Indiana with<br />

a 2.16. Wood County received<br />

a score <strong>of</strong> 1.46.<br />

In addition to <strong>the</strong> index<br />

scores, <strong>the</strong> FEC considers <strong>the</strong><br />

capacity for a community to<br />

support innovation and assigns<br />

each community a letter<br />

grade. Factors such as<br />

human capital, state policy<br />

context and productivity are<br />

considered before denoting a<br />

grade.<br />

Wood County was among<br />

six counties that received an<br />

“A” in innovation capacity.<br />

Wood County Commissioner<br />

Tim Brown said <strong>the</strong><br />

commissioners are pleased<br />

with <strong>the</strong> ranking.<br />

“It is great news to get national<br />

recognition for what<br />

we have done right. In spite<br />

<strong>of</strong> one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> most difficult<br />

economies in our country’s<br />

history, Wood County is still<br />

a place where people want to<br />

live, work, obtain an education<br />

and open a business.<br />

“A lot has been invested<br />

in our quality <strong>of</strong> life by many<br />

citizens over <strong>the</strong> course <strong>of</strong><br />

many years. It is nice to see<br />

that recognized with such a<br />

prominent distinction,” said<br />

Mr. Brown.<br />

Tom Blaha, executive director<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Wood County<br />

Economic Development<br />

Commission also was<br />

pleased with <strong>the</strong> county’s<br />

ranking.<br />

“This is a very high honor,<br />

and is a validation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

‘brand’ we at <strong>the</strong> WCEDC<br />

have been building here in<br />

Wood County over <strong>the</strong> last<br />

two decades,” he said. “The<br />

role <strong>of</strong> universities in this<br />

‘convergence synergy’ is<br />

only just now beginning to be<br />

fully grasped and appreciated.”<br />

Jeffery Walker is one <strong>of</strong><br />

five local men who recently<br />

took <strong>the</strong> next step toward<br />

<strong>the</strong> Catholic priesthood.<br />

On March 22, Toledo<br />

Bishop Leonard Blair ordained<br />

five men as transitional<br />

deacons during a<br />

ceremony at Our Lady,<br />

Queen <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Most Holy<br />

Rosary Ca<strong>the</strong>dral in Toledo.<br />

Mr. Walker currently<br />

serves as pastoral intern at<br />

St. Rose Catholic Church.<br />

A transitional deacon is a<br />

man studying to become a<br />

priest. About a year before<br />

priesthood ordination, he is<br />

ordained to <strong>the</strong> diaconate,<br />

receiving <strong>the</strong> faculties <strong>of</strong><br />

deacon in <strong>the</strong> church. These<br />

faculties include proclaiming<br />

<strong>the</strong> Gospel, preaching<br />

homilies at Mass, <strong>of</strong>ficiating<br />

at <strong>the</strong> sacrament <strong>of</strong> marriage,<br />

and administering <strong>the</strong><br />

sacrament <strong>of</strong> baptism.<br />

The five men are scheduled<br />

to be ordained to <strong>the</strong><br />

priesthood for <strong>the</strong> Diocese<br />

<strong>of</strong> Toledo in June 2013.<br />

STAFF WRITER<br />

Got Booty? If you have a c<strong>of</strong>fee can full <strong>of</strong><br />

old coins, an old guitar or maybe <strong>the</strong> costume<br />

jewelry your aunt gave you, it’s time to bring<br />

it out <strong>of</strong> hiding. This week, Treasure Hunters<br />

will make a five day stop here and want to<br />

see what you have. These Treasure Hunters<br />

aren’t armed with a shovel and metal detector,<br />

ra<strong>the</strong>r <strong>the</strong>ir weapon <strong>of</strong> choice is <strong>the</strong>ir expertise<br />

and <strong>the</strong> collectors <strong>the</strong>y buy for. You see, <strong>the</strong>se<br />

guys know all about diamonds, coins, antiques<br />

and collectibles, musical instruments and any-<br />

thing that’s old. For five days <strong>the</strong>y are asking<br />

you to bring your booty and make your best<br />

deal. These guys pay cash for just about any-<br />

thing that’s old. The items <strong>the</strong>y buy go straight<br />

to collectors all over <strong>the</strong> world. How much is a<br />

1960 Gibson Les Paul worth? Well, to some, it<br />

might be worth a couple hundred dollars but<br />

to a serious collector it could be worth thou-<br />

sands, even ten’s <strong>of</strong> thousands. These guys are<br />

buying for <strong>the</strong>se collectors. They pay more for<br />

<strong>the</strong> things <strong>the</strong>ir collectors want.<br />

The event is free to attend and <strong>the</strong>re is no<br />

obligation to sell anything. If it’s information<br />

you want, that won’t cost you a thing. But be<br />

prepared, as an <strong>of</strong>fer to purchase your trea-<br />

sures is highly likely. About eighty percent <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> stuff that comes into <strong>the</strong> show is purchased<br />

by <strong>the</strong>se hungry treasure hunters.<br />

According to <strong>the</strong> Treasure Hunters I talked<br />

to, <strong>the</strong> wait time to get your items looked at is<br />

usually a half hour or less. Once <strong>the</strong>re, your<br />

items will be examined, identified and an <strong>of</strong>-<br />

fer will quickly follow. Then it’s up to you…<br />

do I sell, do I hold out for more or do I walk?<br />

The whole thing sounds like a lot <strong>of</strong> fun and<br />

might put some jingle in your pocket. So dig<br />

up that booty and head down to <strong>the</strong> show. You<br />

might have <strong>the</strong> treasure <strong>the</strong>y have been look-<br />

ing for!<br />

NEWS IN BRIEF<br />

STAFF REPORT<br />

Ed Johnson, heavy equipment operator, was<br />

surprised when he pulled <strong>the</strong> giant scoop <strong>of</strong> earth<br />

from <strong>the</strong> basement he was digging. “What is<br />

that?” he thought. “An old whiskey barrel or a<br />

wooden box <strong>of</strong> some kind?” He jumped <strong>of</strong>f his<br />

backhoe to investigate. As he approached, his<br />

mind was racing. He could see that <strong>the</strong> wooden<br />

box was badly decayed and full <strong>of</strong> something. As<br />

he got closer, he could make out a sword, an old<br />

canteen and remnants <strong>of</strong> an old military uniform.<br />

While sifting through <strong>the</strong> box, he found a bugle,<br />

tattered papers and some military badges. It ap-<br />

peared to be <strong>the</strong> belongings <strong>of</strong> a soldier <strong>of</strong> some<br />

kind. He spent <strong>the</strong> rest <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> day collecting and<br />

examining <strong>the</strong> items he had found. He needed to<br />

<br />

The next morning he stopped by <strong>the</strong> local c<strong>of</strong>-<br />

fee shop to ask questions about <strong>the</strong> lot he was<br />

digging on. He stopped at <strong>the</strong> right place. Three<br />

elderly gentlemen were swapping stories as <strong>the</strong>y<br />

did every morning. Ed approached <strong>the</strong> group and<br />

asked if <strong>the</strong>y were from <strong>the</strong> area. They all laughed<br />

and said “Who’s asking?” Ed explained that he<br />

was building a new house on a lot he recently pur-<br />

chased and told <strong>the</strong>m where it was. One gentle-<br />

men said, “Oh, you mean <strong>the</strong> old Norris place?<br />

That place was demolished over 50 years ago.<br />

Been an empty lot ever since.” Ed was intrigued—<br />

he hadn’t realized <strong>the</strong>re had been a house <strong>the</strong>re.<br />

<br />

boy at <strong>the</strong> time—no one was home, but <strong>the</strong> place<br />

was a total loss. The charred remains sat <strong>the</strong>re for<br />

<br />

<br />

and forth from school. Went all <strong>the</strong> way to <strong>the</strong><br />

8th grade,” <strong>the</strong> fellow said with a smile. “After<br />

that, no one ever rebuilt on <strong>the</strong> lot. I’m glad to see<br />

somebody’s doing something with it. Go down<br />

and talk to Larry at <strong>the</strong> court house. He can pull<br />

<strong>the</strong> plat book and tell you all about it.” The old<br />

guy was right, Larry was a wealth <strong>of</strong> information.<br />

The original farm house was built by Elsie and<br />

<br />

sold to Elijah Miller in <strong>18</strong>83. Then in 1916, <strong>the</strong><br />

place was sold to Henry Norris who tore down<br />

<strong>the</strong> existing two-room farm house and built a new<br />

<br />

All <strong>of</strong> this was great info, now what about<br />

<br />

what <strong>the</strong>y were. When Ed learned that <strong>the</strong> Trea-<br />

sure Hunters were coming to town, he thought<br />

this would be his chance to learn more about <strong>the</strong><br />

items he had found. The advertisement had said<br />

that <strong>the</strong> experts would <strong>of</strong>fer advice on any an-<br />

tique and collectible items and <strong>the</strong>y would do it<br />

for free. It also said that <strong>the</strong>y would make <strong>of</strong>fers<br />

to purchase items. He wasn’t interested in selling,<br />

but you never know. Hey, if <strong>the</strong> price is right, who<br />

knows?<br />

Ed walked into <strong>the</strong> hotel where <strong>the</strong> show was<br />

and followed <strong>the</strong> signs to <strong>the</strong> meeting room with<br />

great anticipation. “My heart was actually beating<br />

at twice <strong>the</strong> normal rate,” he said. “As soon as I<br />

walked in I was welcomed to <strong>the</strong> show and given<br />

a number. They said it would be about 10 minutes<br />

until <strong>the</strong>y would call my number. While I waited,<br />

I looked at all <strong>the</strong> unusual antiques on display.<br />

There were old toys, coins, silver tea sets and old<br />

metal signs. There was even a sword similar to<br />

mine. My number was called and it was <strong>the</strong> mo-<br />

<br />

about <strong>the</strong> items I had found.”<br />

Ed continued, “almost immediately after I sat<br />

down, Greg <strong>the</strong> antique guru was assigned to as-<br />

sist me said, ‘hey nice Civil War sword and bugle.<br />

Where did you get <strong>the</strong>m?’ I told him my story and<br />

he said <strong>the</strong> family most likely buried <strong>the</strong> items in<br />

honor <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> soldier who owned <strong>the</strong>m, and who<br />

most likely fought in <strong>the</strong> Civil War.” The soldier’s<br />

uniform, or what was left <strong>of</strong> it, <strong>the</strong> sword and<br />

o<strong>the</strong>r items would have been distributed by <strong>the</strong><br />

Union Army. The items were that <strong>of</strong> an infantry<br />

soldier and dated at around <strong>18</strong>63. Because a bugle<br />

was found, this soldier was most likely <strong>the</strong> com-<br />

pany bugle boy. Most buglers were young boys.<br />

<br />

<br />

Greg also explained that since <strong>the</strong> uniform,<br />

sword and o<strong>the</strong>r items were toge<strong>the</strong>r, <strong>the</strong> soldier<br />

most surely survived <strong>the</strong> war and returned home.<br />

<br />

<br />

entire collection was valued at $2,200. Most <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> value was <strong>the</strong> sword and <strong>the</strong> bugle. I decided<br />

to take pictures and sell <strong>the</strong> collection. I had a<br />

great time learning about it and thought it should<br />

be in a Civil War enthusiast’s collection. I’m ac-<br />

tually having a small monument made in honor <strong>of</strong><br />

<br />

it was found.”<br />

CASH FOR<br />

GOLD<br />

& SILVER<br />

What kind<br />

<strong>of</strong> things are<br />

<strong>the</strong>y looking<br />

for?<br />

I’m Tony, and I<br />

get asked this question a lot. I usually<br />

say, “if it’s gold or old, <strong>the</strong>y will prob-<br />

ably be interested in it.” I know that’s<br />

a vague answer, so here’s a list that<br />

might get you thinking:<br />

Gold Jewelry, Costume Jewelry, Diamonds, Silver Coins, Silver Dollars, Gold Coins, Old<br />

Paper Currency, Old Wheat Pennies, Old Pocket Watches, Toys made before 1970, Wrist<br />

Watches, Foreign Coins, Silver Bullion, Sterling Silver, Barbie Dolls, Tonka Trucks, Coin Col-<br />

lections, Advertising Signs, Old Guitars, Saxophones, All Musical Instruments, Comic Books,<br />

Historical Documents, Oil Paintings<br />

Hi, I’m Dennis and I am a Treasure Hunter. Silver is almost<br />

$35 per oz. Five years ago, it was $2.50 per oz. If you have<br />

old silver jewelry, tea sets, sterling and old silver coins, I want<br />

to see it. I buy hundreds <strong>of</strong> pounds <strong>of</strong> silver every week. If it’s<br />

silver, please come and see me!<br />

Hi, my name is David. I’ve been<br />

collecting coins since I was a child. I<br />

can’t wait to visit with you and exam-<br />

ine your old coins and paper currency.<br />

I will be honest and fair with you and<br />

pay you as much as I can for your old<br />

coins. I have purchased millions <strong>of</strong> dollars worth <strong>of</strong><br />

coins from people all over <strong>the</strong> world.<br />

Did you know that <strong>the</strong> United States started mint-<br />

ing coins in 1793? All coins are worth something:<br />

old silver dollars, half dollars, quarters and dimes<br />

made before 1965 are mostly silver and worth many<br />

times <strong>the</strong>ir face value. A $20 gold coin from <strong>the</strong> ear-<br />

ly 1900’s could be worth $2,000 or more to collec-<br />

tors. If you have any older coins or paper currency,<br />

please come see us. We will buy one coin or million<br />

dollar collections.<br />

MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS WANTED<br />

We pay for any instrument, including guitars, saxophones,<br />

clarinets, flutes, drums, cymbals, french horns, tubas and bass<br />

guitars.<br />

WE WANT TO<br />

BUY ANY TYPE<br />

OF GOLD<br />

YOU HAVE<br />

GOLD IS ALMOST AT<br />

$1,700 PER OZ.<br />

IT’S TIME TO SELL!<br />

Hi, I’m<br />

Archie.<br />

I’ve been<br />

a Trea-<br />

sureHunt- er since<br />

1996. Back <strong>the</strong>n, gold<br />

was around $225 per<br />

oz.—now it’s six times<br />

that. Gold has never been<br />

this high and may never<br />

be again in my lifetime.<br />

Back in <strong>the</strong> 1980’s,<br />

gold and silver soared in<br />

price, but soon fell back<br />

to rock bottom. Well, it’s<br />

a seller’s market right<br />

now. The poor world<br />

economy and weak dol-<br />

lar have increased prices<br />

to all-time highs. My ad-<br />

vice to people is to sell<br />

now at <strong>the</strong> high side.<br />

Many people have<br />

gold in <strong>the</strong>ir jewelry box<br />

and don’t realize how<br />

valuable it really is. If<br />

you’ve got old rings,<br />

necklaces, mismatched<br />

earrings or even gold<br />

teeth just sitting in a<br />

dresser drawer, dig it out<br />

and bring it in. You will<br />

be surprised just how<br />

much we can pay you.<br />

BUYING ALL POCKET WATCHES AND<br />

WRISTWATCHES<br />

We are one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> largest pocket watch and wristwatch buyers<br />

in <strong>the</strong> world. We deal in all makes and models, including:<br />

ABOVE A customer brought in his fa<strong>the</strong>r’s coin collection that he had<br />

inherited. He was pleasantly surprised with his <strong>of</strong>fer and decided to<br />

PHS vs. Whitmer<br />

On <strong>April</strong> 9, in a wild non<br />

hands five times, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Perrysburg</strong><br />

High School varsity<br />

baseball team outlasted <strong>the</strong><br />

Pan<strong>the</strong>rs by a score <strong>of</strong> 12-11.<br />

Both teams hit <strong>the</strong> ball<br />

junior Spencer George.<br />

Whitmer had 13 hits.<br />

The clubs also combined<br />

for eight errors in a contest<br />

that took more than three<br />

hours to play.<br />

Junior Bennett Westfall,<br />

<strong>the</strong> third Yellow Jacket<br />

pitcher, came on in <strong>the</strong> fifth<br />

and earned <strong>the</strong> win by holding<br />

Whitmer scoreless in <strong>the</strong><br />

last two innings.<br />

Mark Delas led <strong>the</strong> Jackets<br />

at <strong>the</strong> plate with a double<br />

and two singles.<br />

Hunter Smith also had<br />

three hits, followed by two<br />

The Pan<strong>the</strong>rs answered<br />

with single runs in <strong>the</strong> second<br />

through <strong>the</strong> fourth while<br />

<strong>the</strong> Jackets pushed across<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir final run in <strong>the</strong> sixth inning.<br />

After winning his first<br />

two starts, Anthony Rorigi<br />

took <strong>the</strong> loss, giving up four<br />

runs on six hits before being<br />

relieved by Austin Lee with<br />

PHS vs. Napoleon<br />

On Friday, <strong>April</strong> 13, <strong>the</strong><br />

Yellow Jackets defeated<br />

Napoleon with a five inning<br />

16-6 run rule.<br />

The Jackets didn’t have a<br />

base runner for <strong>the</strong> first three<br />

innings but batted around in<br />

<strong>the</strong> fourth and plated six<br />

runs.<br />

Hunter Smith’s fourth<br />

homer <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> year, a two-run<br />

blast to right field, was <strong>the</strong><br />

key hit.<br />

AJ Stockwell and<br />

Spencer George also had<br />

RBIs in <strong>the</strong> inning.<br />

Sophomore Mark Delas<br />

was on <strong>the</strong> mound for <strong>Perrysburg</strong><br />

and through no fault<br />

<strong>of</strong> his own gave up six unearned<br />

runs in <strong>the</strong> bottom <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> fourth. Nick Munger<br />

came on in relief in <strong>the</strong><br />

fourth with two outs and a<br />

runner at second.<br />

After walking <strong>the</strong> first<br />

batter he faced, <strong>the</strong> next batter<br />

grounded out, ending <strong>the</strong><br />

inning.<br />

With <strong>the</strong> score tied at 6-6<br />

<strong>the</strong> floodgates opened in <strong>the</strong><br />

fifth with <strong>the</strong> Jackets sending<br />

15 players to bat, with 10<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>m crossing <strong>the</strong> plate.<br />

Steve Slocum had two<br />

singles and an RBI, and<br />

Smith added a single and a<br />

most productive inning<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> year.<br />

score in <strong>the</strong>ir half <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

fifth, and <strong>the</strong> game was<br />

stopped by run rule.<br />

Jackets were Hunter Smith<br />

with a single, triple, homerun,<br />

jitters by both teams, <strong>the</strong> scoring<br />

The final quarter continued<br />

with a lot <strong>of</strong> emotion for both<br />

teams. Springfield’s overall<br />

quickness resulted in a flurry<br />

easy buckets for <strong>the</strong> Blue Devils.<br />

The Jackets’ deficit was<br />

too large and <strong>the</strong>y couldn’t recover.<br />

to <strong>the</strong> Jacket scoring with her<br />

one handed shot finding <strong>the</strong><br />

Corrected <strong>Perrysburg</strong> Spring Brush Pickup<br />

MONDAY, APRIL 9 – 7:00 A.M.<br />

HOMEOWNER’S BRUSH MUST BE AT THE CURB<br />

PREPARE:<br />

◆ This year <strong>the</strong> “out by date” is Monday, <strong>April</strong> 9, at 7<br />

a.m.<br />

◆ All brush must be placed at <strong>the</strong> curb, not in <strong>the</strong> alley.<br />

◆ Pile brush with cut ends to <strong>the</strong> street.<br />

◆ Do not tie into bundles—stack loosely because brush<br />

is chipped curbside.<br />

◆ Place small clippings and twigs in garbage cans so<br />

<strong>the</strong>y can be dumped directly into <strong>the</strong> chipper.<br />

◆ City crews will take branches, bushes, logs, stumps,<br />

firewood and Christmas trees.<br />

◆ Crews will begin on <strong>the</strong> east side <strong>of</strong> town this year<br />

and work <strong>the</strong>ir way west. Once crews have been down<br />

your street, <strong>the</strong>y will not return. A supervisor will check<br />

daily to make sure all brush piles were picked up.<br />

AVOID:<br />

◆ Brush pick up is not a yard waste or large item pick<br />

up. Please do not place anything but brush to <strong>the</strong><br />

curb. Information on yard waste or large item pick up<br />

is available by calling <strong>the</strong> Department <strong>of</strong> Public Service<br />

at 419-872-8020, Monday through Friday, 7 a.m.<br />

to 3:30 p.m. or check <strong>the</strong> city Web site at www.ci.<br />

perrysburg.oh.us.<br />

◆ If o<strong>the</strong>r items such as ornamental grasses, weeds, sod<br />

or leaves are mixed with <strong>the</strong> brush pile, everything<br />

will be left and <strong>the</strong> homeowner will be responsible<br />

for removal <strong>of</strong> all items.<br />

◆ Metal, stones and o<strong>the</strong>r debris may damage equipment<br />

or injure workers.<br />

WOOD CHIPS DELIVERED:<br />

◆ Wood chips are available to city residents and delivery<br />

is free and available only within City limits. The<br />

wood chips are rough cut—as we chip <strong>the</strong> brush<br />

curbside and get a full load, we bring it directly to<br />

your home and dump it. Many pieces are big and are<br />

used mostly for fill-in areas. It is not “pretty” to use<br />

as a finish to your landscape. Loads are approximately<br />

12 to <strong>18</strong> cubic yards. No partial loads are deliv-<br />

Humane Ohio is a 501c3 non-pr<strong>of</strong>it organization<br />

Wood County Humane Society’s<br />

PET OF THE WEEK<br />

Cannon is a very sweet boy who<br />

was surrendered to us as a stray.<br />

He is quite timid and takes a long<br />

time to come out <strong>of</strong> his shell, but<br />

he is well worth <strong>the</strong> patience! He<br />

would be <strong>the</strong> perfect cat for a calm<br />

and laid back household who is<br />

looking for a loving and kind companion.<br />

He enjoys being held, but<br />

shies away from rough housing and intense play. He would probably<br />

spend most <strong>of</strong> his days lounging around and keeping laps warm.<br />

Cannon's adoption fee is waived because he is slightly anti social in<br />

<strong>the</strong> cat room. However, he is a very sweet boy, so we are hoping<br />

people become encouraged to get to know him!<br />

Please visit or call <strong>the</strong> Wood County Humane Society at 419-352-7339<br />

to learn more about this great pet. All <strong>of</strong> our adoptable animals can be<br />

viewed by visiting www.WoodCountyHumaneSociety.org.<br />
