Proposal targets<br />

vacant buildings<br />

By Kristy Zurbrick<br />

<strong>Madison</strong> Editor<br />

Vacant buildings are the target of a proposed change to London’s<br />

building and housing code.<br />

City council member Henry Comer introduced the legislation at<br />

council’s Oct. 18 meeting. The idea is to institute a program to identify,<br />

register and inspect vacant commercial and industrial buildings.<br />

The program would not apply to residential buildings.<br />

“I hope it will clean up the city a little bit,” Comer said. “It’s a<br />

safety concern, too.”<br />

The focus would be on vacant buildings that could present fire<br />

hazards, become eyesores, detract from efforts to rehabilitate or<br />

maintain surrounding buildings, or present other health, safety or<br />

welfare hazards.<br />

The program would require the buildings to be secure from trespassers<br />

and provide safe entry for police and fire fighters in the<br />

event of emergencies.<br />

Once a building is identified as vacant, the city would charge the<br />

property owner an initial registration fee of $400. Renewal costs<br />

would be $800 for the first year, $1,600 for the second year, $3,200<br />

for the third year, and $6,400 for the fourth year and each subsequent<br />

year.<br />

Some fee waivers and reductions would be possible. The initial<br />

registration fee could be waived for up to a year while a property is<br />

being actively marketed for sale or lease. The registration fee or renewal<br />

fee could be refunded if a building comes into compliance<br />

with building code standards and is reoccupied within one year of<br />

payment. The renewal fee could bee cut in half if, at the time of renewal,<br />

the building has no outstanding notices regarding violations<br />

of maintenance, building or fire codes.<br />

Comer said the program’s implementation would go through the<br />

Mount Sterling council approves fee increase<br />

By Amanda Ensinger<br />

Staff Writer<br />

Starting in January 2019, Mount Sterling<br />

residents and commercial businesses<br />

will see a substantial increase in their waste<br />

water and water bills.<br />

On Oct. 22, village council passed legislation<br />

that increases the debt fee by $50 a<br />

month. The measure passed 5-1 with council<br />

member Tom Ward casting the “no” vote.<br />

The debt fee goes toward paying off<br />

loans. Currently, the village owes $3.78 million<br />

for enhancements to the wastewater<br />

plant and $9.55 million for construction of<br />

the water plant. Without additional revenue,<br />

the village would not be able to make<br />

the loan payments.<br />

“This was an agonizing decision that<br />

started six to eight months ago with the<br />

(state) auditor and ended here,” said Mayor<br />

Billy Martin. “This was a tough decision for<br />

all of us but it had to be made.”<br />

The increase was voted on at three council<br />

meetings, with the final vote taking place<br />

on Oct. 22. Over the course of the three readings,<br />

several council members changed their<br />

minds and their votes. At the Oct. 8 meeting,<br />

council member David Timmons changed his<br />

vote from “yes” to “no” based on concerns<br />

about how people on fixed incomes would<br />

pay for the increase. However, at the Oct. 22<br />

meeting, Timmons changed his mind again<br />

and voted in favor of the increase.<br />

“I voted ‘no’ once for this, but after further<br />

investigation I now understand the situation<br />

we are in,” Timmons said. “The<br />

mayor said if we can find a way in the future<br />

to help reduce this burden we will, and I<br />

have confidence in the mayor and council<br />

that we will find a way to fix this.”<br />

In upcoming events, the village’s trick-ortreat<br />

night is set for Oct. 31, 6-7:30 p.m. Afterwards,<br />

a costume contest for children<br />

ages 12 and younger will take place at the<br />

gazebo across from town hall, followed by a<br />

parade from the gazebo to the Dairy Freeze<br />

where prize winners will be named. Refreshments<br />

will be served.<br />

Probable Zika case under investigation<br />

<strong>Madison</strong> County Public Health is investigating<br />

a probable case of Zika virus in a<br />

county resident who traveled overseas to an<br />

area considered “at risk” for Zika transmission.<br />

According to <strong>Madison</strong> County Health<br />

Commissioner Chris Cook, there is no evidence<br />

of Zika infected mosquitoes in the<br />

local area.<br />

Zika is an illness transmitted to people<br />

primarily through the bite of an infected<br />

mosquito. The mosquito that transmits<br />

Zika, called Aedes aegypti, is commonly<br />

found in the tropics and southern United<br />

States; however, the Asian tiger mosquito<br />

found in Ohio may potentially be able to<br />

carry and transmit Zika.<br />

Cook explained that of the nearly 100<br />

cases of Zika reported in Ohio over the last<br />

three years, none has been transmitted by<br />

mosquitoes in Ohio.<br />

“While this case seems to be associated<br />

with travel to another country, we want residents<br />

to be safe and take steps to avoid<br />

mosquito bites, especially with this probable<br />

VanHouten has been an ODNR forester<br />

for eight years, helping landowners prepare<br />

for and minimize negative impacts from the<br />

emerald ash borer, maintaining small woodland<br />

case of Zika in the county,” Cook said.<br />

The most common symptoms of Zika<br />

virus disease are fever, rash, joint pain, and<br />

conjunctivitis (red eyes). The illness is typically<br />

mild and goes away within one week.<br />

Most people infected with Zika virus will<br />

have no symptoms or will only have mild<br />

symptoms. However, Zika virus can be<br />

spread from a pregnant woman to her fetus<br />

and has been linked to microcephaly and<br />

other birth defects in babies of mothers who<br />

had Zika virus while pregnant. Zika also<br />

can be spread during sex by a man infected<br />

with Zika to his partner. There is no evidence<br />

that Zika can be transmitted from<br />

person to person through casual contact.<br />

There is no vaccine to prevent Zika and<br />

there is no specific treatment for it.<br />

Cook stressed that the impact of Zika on<br />

an unborn child can be significant and encourages<br />

pregnant women to talk with their<br />

obstetricians about the risks of the illness.<br />

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends<br />

that pregnant women and women<br />

insect and disease control, forest recreation,<br />

tree planting, and wildlife habitat development.<br />

Service foresters also help Ohio<br />

landowners with Ohio Forest Tax Law and<br />

cost-share incentive programs.<br />

Ohio landowners considering a timber<br />

harvest can utilize service foresters to decide<br />

if a harvest is appropriate, how a harvest<br />

can support their objectives, trees to<br />

harvest and protect, how to protect soil and<br />

water, and how to maximize money received<br />

from sale of timber.<br />

day. He can be reached at (614) 265-6703 or<br />

Jason.VanHouten@dnr.state.oh.us.<br />

trying to get pregnant should consider postponing<br />

travel to areas with Zika virus transmission<br />

and that men with a pregnant sex<br />

partner consistently and correctly use condoms<br />

during sex or abstain from sexual activity<br />

for the duration of the pregnancy to<br />

prevent potential transmission. If both partners<br />

travel or if only the male partner travels<br />

to a Zika risk area, the couple should<br />

consider using condoms or not having sex<br />

for three months. If only a female partner<br />

traveled, the couple should use condoms or<br />

not have sex for at least two months.<br />

Cook said that prevention is the key to<br />

stopping the spread of Zika in the community.<br />

“Get rid of standing water in your yard,<br />

wear long sleeves, and use insect repellent<br />

even during the daylight hours if you are<br />

going to be outside,” Cook said. “That is<br />

your best defense.”<br />

In a committee report earlier in the<br />

meeting, council member Anthony Smith<br />

said the fire department is on pace to have<br />

its emergency medical services (EMS) operational<br />

by Jan. 1. The city seceded from the<br />

<strong>Madison</strong> County Emergency Medical District<br />

(EMD) in September. The city has a 2-<br />

mill levy on the Nov. 6 election ballot to fund<br />

its own EMS.<br />

Castle also introduced the city’s budget<br />

ordinance for 2019. He said it is based on a<br />

4.5 percent spending increase across all departments.<br />

“The administration has shown they are<br />

very cautious in how they spend the money,”<br />

he said. The budget will be up for a second<br />

Constitutional amendment on Nov. 6 ballot<br />

By Christine Bryant<br />

Staff Writer<br />

A controversial ballot initiative this November<br />

would reform Ohio’s criminal justice<br />

system, offering more opportunities for<br />

treatment rather than prison time.<br />

It’s a positive step for those who want reform,<br />

especially in the middle of an opioid<br />

epidemic. But opponents warn that people<br />

who should be behind bars instead would be<br />

on the streets sooner; they argue the initiative<br />

is misguided.<br />

Under the proposed constitutional<br />

amendment, known as State Issue 1, the<br />

sentences of incarcerated individuals—except<br />

those convicted of murder, rape or child<br />

molestation—would be reduced by up to 25<br />

percent if the individual participates in rehabilitative,<br />

work or educational programming.<br />

The amendment also would mandate<br />

that criminal offenses of obtaining, possessing<br />

or using any drug, such as fentanyl,<br />

heroin, methamphetamine, cocaine, LSD<br />

and other controlled substances, be classified<br />

as a misdemeanor, rather than a felony.<br />

If adopted, the amendment also:<br />

• prohibits jail time as a sentence for obtaining,<br />

possessing or using controlled substances<br />

until an individual’s third offense<br />

within 24 months;<br />

• allows an individual convicted of obtaining,<br />

possessing or using a drug prior to<br />

the effective date of the amendment to ask<br />

a court to reduce the conviction to a misdemeanor;<br />

• requires any available funding, based<br />

on projected savings, to be applied to stateadministered<br />

rehabilitation programs and<br />

crime victim funds; and<br />

• requires a graduated series of responses,<br />

such as community service, drug<br />

treatment or jail time, for minor non-criminal<br />

probation violations.<br />

Amy Hanauer, executive director of Policy<br />

Matters Ohio, says the organization conducted<br />

three research projects on Issue 1<br />

and found, if approved, the measure will<br />

have big benefits for Ohio.<br />

“Ohio’s prison population has tripled<br />

since 1980, and our prisons are at 132 percent<br />

of capacity,” she said. “We lock up a<br />

higher share than all but 13 other states,<br />

and we have more of our people on probation<br />

than all but two other states.”<br />

By redirecting people when their worst<br />

offenses are possession or probation violation,<br />

she says, benefits include reduced<br />

prison populations, more treatment and<br />

lower rates of overdose and addiction.<br />

it can really derail their lives,”<br />

Hanauer said. “They are eight times more<br />

likely to die of an overdose when they first<br />

get out of prison than other people with addiction<br />

are. They are locked out of at least<br />

one in four Ohio jobs after serving time,<br />

which makes it harder to stay on the<br />

straight and narrow.”<br />

Though well intended, Issue 1 is misguided,<br />

says Louis Tobin, executive director<br />

of the Ohio Prosecuting Attorneys Association.<br />

“The reality is that it will make Ohio’s<br />

opiate crisis worse,” he said. “For many addicts,<br />

courts are the only thing that get<br />

them into treatment and promote recovery.<br />

Issue 1 takes away the stick—incarceration—<br />

that courts use to do this.”<br />

Voters do not need to look any farther<br />

than West Virginia, he says, which has<br />

more overdose deaths than Ohio.<br />

“West Virginia law does what Issue 1<br />

proposes to do for Ohio,” Tobin said. “It<br />

makes drug possession a misdemeanor with<br />

no jail time. Nothing connects addicts to<br />

treatment and they are left on their own to<br />

get sober. It doesn’t work.”<br />

Hanauer, however, says many people<br />

want to, but can’t get into drug treatment in<br />

Ohio.<br />

“Addiction is an illness, created in part<br />

by bad policies,” she said. “We need to do<br />

things differently in Ohio, and Issue 1 does<br />

that.”<br />

Issue 1 became an initiative after advocates<br />

began to explore how the prison<br />

budget did not leave enough funds for other<br />

needs, she said.<br />

“More than 4,800 Ohioans died last year<br />

from overdoses and it’s been climbing each<br />

year,” Hanauer said. “Issue 1 is a promising<br />

solution to reduce incarceration, redirect resources<br />

to treating addiction, and get our<br />

communities healthy and safe.”<br />

Tobin, however, says that by creating a<br />

constitutional right for offenders to be released<br />

from prison 25 percent early, all inmates<br />

have to do is participate in<br />

programming while in prison.<br />

“Participation is something much different<br />

than completion,” he said. “They are not<br />

required to complete the programming or to<br />

demonstrate that they are rehabilitated.”<br />

Tobin is also concerned by who the<br />

amendment does not exclude from being<br />

The West Jefferson Youth Athletic Association<br />

is accepting basketball registrations:<br />

* Pee Wee Co-ed—For boys and girls ages<br />

3-6. This year’s games will be played on Saturdays.<br />

* Junior—grades 2-4, separate leagues for<br />

boys and girls.<br />

* Senior—grades 5-6 (and seventhgraders,<br />

only if they tried out for middle<br />

school basketball and did not get selected),<br />

separate league for boys and girls.<br />

Regular season evaluations will take<br />

place Nov. 3 in the West Jefferson Middle<br />

School gym (south entrance by the pride<br />

able to participate.<br />

“Issue 1 says that the only exclusions are<br />

death sentences, life without parole, murder,<br />

rape and child molestation,” Tobin said.<br />

“This means that human traffickers, drug<br />

traffickers, domestic violence offenders and<br />

child abuse offenders, among many other violent<br />

offenders, will get out of prison early.”<br />

As part of the initiative, funds saved<br />

from incarcerating inmates would be redirected<br />

to rehabilitation programs and crime<br />

victim funds. According to Policy Matters<br />

Ohio, it costs an average of $67.84 per inmate<br />

per day, or nearly $25,000 a year.<br />

Those figures include fixed costs, such as facility<br />

maintenance.<br />

However, Tobin says the promised savings<br />

are a myth, with the independent Ohio<br />

Office of Budget and Management stating<br />

Issue 1 instead could increase costs to the<br />

state and local governments.<br />

“The problem is that Issue 1 adopts a<br />

cookie-cutter approach where everyone<br />

found with a certain amount of drugs is<br />

treated the same,” he said.<br />

The wording of the initiative also is problematic,<br />

he says, because it does not differentiate<br />

the quantities of drugs in a person’s<br />

possession, nor distinguish addictive versus<br />

non-addictive drugs.<br />

“As one example, possession of the date<br />

rape drug GHB would be a misdemeanor<br />

with no jail time under Issue 1,” Tobin said.<br />

“It is dangerous. Under Issue 1, there will<br />

be no real consequences for having it.”<br />

He said the law also is shortsighted.<br />

“It is intended to deal with our very real<br />

opiate crisis,” Tobin said. “By putting drug<br />

laws in our Constitution, it ignores what<br />

might come next.”<br />

In the last few years, the state has gone<br />

from experiencing a pill problem to a heroin<br />

problem to a fentanyl problem.<br />

“Now we are starting to see the rise of<br />

carfentanil—100 times stronger than fentanyl,”<br />

Tobin said. “Ohio will not have the<br />

flexibility to deal with future crises because<br />

our drug laws will be set in stone.”<br />

Hanauer said, however, passage of Issue<br />

1 would be an impactful step toward helping<br />

families.<br />

“Providing treatment gets people on the<br />

path to getting their lives back together,”<br />

she said.<br />

Yoder to talk about tariffs and China at banquet<br />

Fred Yoder will be the featured speaker at the <strong>Madison</strong><br />

Soil and Water Conservation District’s annual supervisor<br />

election and banquet on Nov. 15 at Der<br />

Dutchman Restaurant in Plain City.<br />

As a founding board member of the Solutions from<br />

the Land Alliance and chair of the North American Climate<br />

Smart Agriculture Alliance, Yoder recently traveled<br />

to China to share sustainable land management<br />

ideas with producers, traders and government officials.<br />

He will give a presentation on “Tariffs and China: What<br />

will they mean to our future?”<br />

Yoder is a fourth generation farmer who has lived<br />

and farmed near Plain City for over 45 years. Along<br />

with his wife, Debbie, and his two children, he grows<br />

corn, soybeans and wheat on his farm of 2,000 acres. He<br />

and his family also have operated a retail farm seed,<br />

precision ag, and consulting business for over 40 years<br />

and sell seed to all kinds of farmers including those who<br />

use biotech varieties, conventional varieties, and those<br />

who grow organic crops.<br />

Yoder has served as president of the National Corn<br />

Growers Association (NCGA). He has also served in various<br />

leadership roles for many years in the Ohio Corn<br />

Growers Association. He served as chairman of the<br />

NCGA’s Biotech Working Group which helped to develop<br />

protocols to ensure that new emerging technologies<br />

could be used safely on the farm while protecting<br />

other existing crop systems. Currently, he serves on<br />

President Trump's Agriculture Advisory Committee<br />

which is tasked with advising the president on agriculture<br />

policy issues.<br />

In addition to Yoder’s presentation, the banquet program<br />

includes recognition of Furbee Family Farm as<br />

the <strong>Madison</strong> SWCD Cooperator of the Year and <strong>Madison</strong><br />

County’s top-ranked Envirothon team from West<br />

Jefferson High School. Representing the team will be<br />

students Payton Taylor, Bailey Adkins, Karli Graham,<br />

Mark Woodard and Caleb Arteaga, along with advisor<br />

Mike Harkleroad.<br />

The public is invited to attend the banquet. Voting<br />

is from 5 to 6 p.m., followed by dinner. Two board members<br />

will be elected to three-year terms. Candidates are<br />

Jonathan Francis, Bob Hunter and Eric Rife.<br />

Tickets to the dinner are $20 for adults and $10 for<br />

children ages 10 and younger and are available at the<br />

SWCD office, 831 U.S. Rte. 42 NE, London. Reservations<br />

are due by Nov. 7.<br />

Fred Yoder of Plain City is the featured speaker at this year’s <strong>Madison</strong><br />

Soil and Water Conservation District banquet.<br />

Election of Soil & Water reps<br />

Francis Hunter Rife<br />

Two new board supervisors will be elected at the<br />

<strong>Madison</strong> Soil and Water Conservation District’s<br />

(SWCD) 71st Annual Banquet and Supervisor Election<br />

on Nov. 15 at Der Dutchman, 445 S. Jefferson<br />

Ave., Plain City.<br />

The board consists of community leaders elected<br />

by county residents to give direction on soil and<br />

water conservation programs to address local natural<br />

resources concerns. They each volunteer their<br />

time for a three-year term.<br />

Three candidates are running for the two open<br />

seats. They are Jonathan Francis, Bob Hunter and<br />

Eric Rife.<br />

Jonathan Francis, 9990 Lilly Chapel<br />

Georgesville Rd., West Jefferson, is a precision ag specialist<br />

at JD Equipment and is seeking his second term<br />

on the board. He currently serves as chairman. He grew<br />

up on a farm and continues to farm today. Francis says<br />

the most important natural resource issue in <strong>Madison</strong><br />

County is water. Rain does not always come at the right<br />

place at the right time. The challenge is handling<br />

drainage and runoff in an economically and environmentally<br />

sound way. He is running for the board again, he<br />

said, because he likes to be useful and knows there is a<br />

lot to learn. He sees the board as a good opportunity to<br />

contribute his time to benefit others in the community.<br />

Bob Hunter, 7800 Correll-Maxey Road, London, is a<br />

retired farmer and self-employed certified public accountant.<br />

He is seeking his fourth term on the board.<br />

He currently serves as secretary/treasurer. Hunter has<br />

lived in <strong>Madison</strong> County his entire life except for one<br />

year he lived in Columbus. He and his wife, Anne, have<br />

two sons, Sam and Jesse. Hunter belongs to several professional<br />

organizations, including Ohio Society of CPAs,<br />

<strong>Madison</strong> County Farm Bureau, Ohio Cattlemen’s Association,<br />

Ohio Corn Growers’ Association and the Ohio<br />

Soybean Association. He says managing the local water<br />

supply and water quality are the most important concerns<br />

in <strong>Madison</strong> Count, adding that future generations<br />

might wonder why we did not do more toward maintaining<br />

water quality. Hunter is running again because he<br />

likes being actively involved in conservation practices<br />

in <strong>Madison</strong> County and being a part of preserving farmland<br />

and family farms.<br />

Eric Rife, 7655 State Rte. 38 SE, London, has been a<br />

sales support manager at Beck’s Hybrids for 8.5 years.<br />

Prior to his time at Beck’s, he was in agronomy sales at<br />

County Alliance in Tipton, Ind., for four years. He belongs<br />

to the Pheasants Forever Darby Plains Chapter in<br />

<strong>Madison</strong> County. Rife says the most important resource<br />

concern is soil conservation because weather events are<br />

becoming more frequent and heavier. The creeks,<br />

ditches and waterways turn brown after it rains from<br />

soil erosion. More cover crops, residue management and<br />

waterways are needed to protect the soil. Rife is running<br />

for the board because he likes to be a part of improving<br />

things for the county. He sees the loss of woods and fence<br />

rows, and wants to help farmers understand the benefits<br />

for them and the county to participate in Conservation<br />

Reserve Program to add wildlife habitat. He would like<br />

to help <strong>Madison</strong> County become an outstanding example<br />

that the rest of Ohio could follow.<br />

To cast a vote, visit the <strong>Madison</strong> SWCD office at 831<br />

U.S. Rte. 42 NE, London , or call (740-852-4003) to request<br />

an absentee ballot. Or vote at the SWCD office between<br />

8 a.m. and 3 p.m. Nov. 15. Or cast a ballot at the<br />

Dutchman.<br />

Tickets to the conservation banquet are $20 for<br />

adults and $10 for children 10 and younger. They can<br />

be purchased at the SWCD office. For more information,<br />

call (740) 852-4003, option 3.

opinions<br />

What happens when the helpers need help?<br />

Did the destruction of the recent<br />

hurricanes make you wonder<br />

how hospitals and nursing<br />

homes evacuate their patients<br />

and residents to safety? Where<br />

do patients and residents go to receive the same level<br />

of medical care? If a disaster directly affects a healthcare<br />

facility, how does it continue to function and take<br />

care of its patients, in addition to the many others injured<br />

in the disaster?<br />

When Hurricane Katrina and the subsequent flooding<br />

hit New Orleans, it devastated the weakest and<br />

most vulnerable patients in hospitals and nursing<br />

homes, putting not only them but also healthcare workers<br />

in danger.<br />

To correct this fatal emergency planning gap, the<br />

Center for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) now requires<br />

17 types of healthcare provider organizations to develop<br />

emergency plans for their facilities and meet exercise<br />

and testing requirements in order to receive Medicare<br />

and Medicaid reimbursement. The organizations must<br />

demonstrate to surveyors that they are part of the community<br />

healthcare planning team.<br />

To help meet this need locally, emergency management<br />

agencies, health departments and hospitals<br />

formed county healthcare coalitions. <strong>Madison</strong> County’s<br />

Healthcare Coalition is part of the 15-county Central<br />

Ohio Regional Healthcare Coalition that provides communication<br />

alert and information sharing, training and<br />

exercise opportunities, and planning assistance to any<br />

interested organization at no cost.<br />

The Regional Healthcare Coalition is housed at the<br />

Central Ohio Trauma System (COTS) in Columbus<br />

which can quickly facilitate and coordinate an emergency<br />

response for its member healthcare organizations.<br />

This system has been used during several actual incidents.<br />

When notified of a need, COTS sends an alert to<br />

all coalition members, asking them to report the status<br />

of their current resources, such as beds, personnel,<br />

equipment and supplies. They then begin matching the<br />

appropriate resources to the need, even to the extent of<br />

evacuation of an entire nursing<br />

home.<br />

The planning done by the<br />

local and regional healthcare<br />

coalitions helps everyone work<br />

together more smoothly in an<br />

emergency and afterward to recover.<br />

All agencies know better<br />

what to expect from one another<br />

and how to get help, so that they<br />

can more quickly return to the<br />

business of serving their patients.<br />

Leading up to and during<br />

Hurricane Florence, the federal<br />

government asked for a daily<br />

situation status report from<br />

every regional healthcare coalition<br />

for nearly a week. The Central Ohio Regional<br />

Healthcare Coalition responded in an overwhelming<br />

manner. More than 400 healthcare organization members<br />

in the region responded daily.<br />

The <strong>Madison</strong> County Healthcare Coalition meets two<br />

or three times per year at the <strong>Madison</strong> County Emergency<br />

Management Agency (EMA). Membership is not<br />

limited to healthcare providers. First responders, business<br />

representatives and others are also welcome. It<br />

provides a community emergency planning resource<br />

that is coordinated locally through a strong partnership<br />

between EMA and <strong>Madison</strong> County Public Health.<br />

The next meeting is scheduled for 10 a.m. Nov. 13.<br />

The Regional Healthcare Coalition coordinator will attend<br />

for discussions about several initiatives, including<br />

the Stop-the-Bleed campaign. The group also will talk<br />

about locations where individuals in our community<br />

with the following medical and other functional and access<br />

needs can be sheltered during a disaster:<br />

* oxygen dependent;<br />

* ventilator dependent;<br />

* behavioral health;<br />

* tube feeding;<br />

Assist with tax prep<br />

The AARP Foundation Tax Aide program, which provides free<br />

tax preparation at more than 250 locations across Ohio, is looking<br />

for volunteer tax preparers for next year.<br />

Last tax season, Tax-Aide turned away countless seniors because<br />

more people wanted our service than the organization could help.<br />

Demand is expected to be even greater next year because of the new<br />

tax law. The law’s changes add a new wrinkle to the complex<br />

process of filling out tax forms.<br />

Across Ohio each year, more than 1,500 volunteers prepare tax<br />

returns at hundreds of senior centers, libraries and churches from<br />

early February through mid-April. This year, volunteers working<br />

at the <strong>Madison</strong> County Emergency Management Agency in London<br />

prepared 256 federal and state tax returns, saving local residents<br />

an estimated $50,000 in tax preparation fees.<br />

Anyone who does his or her own taxes on a commercially available<br />

program, such as TurboTax, is an ideal candidate for the volunteer<br />

opportunity. Volunteers receive IRS-approved training, use<br />

IRS-provided tax software and equipment, and are mentored<br />

throughout the tax season. Volunteers are asked to work at least<br />

one day a week during the 10- to 11-week tax season.<br />

For more information about volunteering, contact William<br />

Evans, Tax Aide prospective volunteer specialist, at (614) 885-0938<br />

or wlevans88@gmail.com or go to www.ohiotaxaide.org.<br />

Grear always ready to<br />

take on new challenges<br />

Senior Clay Grear is London<br />

Rotary Club’s <strong>October</strong><br />

Student of the Month for<br />

<strong>Madison</strong>-Plains High School.<br />

<strong>Madison</strong>-Plains administrators<br />

choose students of the<br />

month based on academic and<br />

extracurricular achievement<br />

and positive character.<br />

Grear has a 3.936 weighted<br />

grade point average and ranks<br />

second in his class. His favorite<br />

class is Western Civilization.<br />

Clay Grear<br />

Grear has made honor roll all four years<br />

of his high school career. He also has played<br />

golf all four years and this year qualified for<br />

district-level competition. Grear played basketball<br />

his freshman year. He works at<br />

Dwyer’s Hardware in London, where he has<br />

been employed for approximately 10 months.<br />

When asked which <strong>Madison</strong>-Plains staff<br />

member inspires him, Grear said, “Mr.<br />

Hunt because he has an extensive<br />

knowledge of history.”<br />

Change in early intervention<br />

By Kristy Zurbrick<br />

<strong>Madison</strong> Editor<br />

Come next summer, <strong>Madison</strong> County’s Family and<br />

Children First Council will no longer provide early intervention<br />

services to Union County.<br />

For the past couple of years, Union County has contracted<br />

with <strong>Madison</strong> County for help in providing services<br />

to families with children ages birth to 3 years old<br />

who have disabilities. The services have included needs<br />

assessments, referrals, care plans, and in-home parent<br />

coaching.<br />

<strong>Madison</strong> County is terminating the agreement for<br />

funding reasons, said Jenn Coleman, <strong>Madison</strong> County’s<br />

Family and Children First Council coordinator. Funding<br />

from the state for early intervention programs has<br />

remained flat for the last several years while the number<br />

of children being served, both in <strong>Madison</strong> County<br />

and Union County, has gone up, she said.<br />

When the contract between the two counties started,<br />

Union County was serving 15 children; the program<br />

now serves 100 children. While the increase hasn’t been<br />

as dramatic in <strong>Madison</strong> County, numbers are up.<br />

<strong>Madison</strong> County’s Family Council has secured additional<br />

local funding to help make up for the lack of additional<br />

funding from the state. Union County has not.<br />

“We looked at projections going into 2020, and at the<br />

current rate of growth, we couldn’t sustain services to<br />

Union County” without more funding, Coleman said.<br />

On Oct. 23, the <strong>Madison</strong> County commissioners<br />

signed off on the decision to terminate the agreement.<br />

<strong>Madison</strong> County will continue to provide services to<br />

Union County through the end of the current contract,<br />

which runs through June 30, 2019.<br />

Inmates with Mental Illness<br />

Also on Oct. 23, the commissioners heard from Greta<br />

Mayer, CEO of the Mental Health and Recovery Board<br />

of Clark, Greene and <strong>Madison</strong> Counties. She talked<br />

about Stepping Up, a nationwide initiative to help people<br />

with mental illness stay out of jail and on a path to<br />

recovery.<br />

She said 30 percent of Ohio’s inmates have mental<br />

illnesses and of those, most also have substance abuse<br />

disorders. These inmates often stay in jail longer and<br />

are likely to return to jail, she said. Jails have limited<br />

ability to help such inmates.<br />

Mayer asked the commissioners to sign up for Ohio<br />

Stepping Up and pass a resolution that includes a commitment<br />

to a six-step planning process. No funds are<br />

required to join the initiative. Mayer noted that Union<br />

County is among the nearby counties that have signed<br />

up.<br />

Commissioner David Dhume said he wants input<br />

from local court officials before the commission decides<br />

whether to pass a resolution.<br />

Tile Mill Drainage Project<br />

The county engineer’s office has worked out a plan<br />

to address drainage issues at the site of a former tile<br />

mill in London.<br />

The property belongs to the city of London and is located<br />

northwest of the intersection of State Route 665<br />

and Payne Thompson Road, between the bike path to<br />

the south and railroad tracks to the north.<br />

In 2015, a nearby property owner filed a ditch petition,<br />

stating drainage issues at the old tile mill were impacting<br />

her property. The engineer’s office held a first<br />

hearing on the petition in 2016, then put the process on<br />

hold because the water was too high at the tile mill<br />

property to determine a solution.<br />

Old drainage tile serving the area had become nonfunctional,<br />

causing high water. The high water attracted<br />

beavers which built dams, making the problem<br />

worse. Once the beavers were trapped and removed, the<br />

engineer’s office removed some of the dams, allowing<br />

the water to drain enough to allow for survey work.<br />

The fix, said Engineer Bryan Dhume, is to clear trees<br />

and brush, repair 1,950 feet of subsurface drainage tile<br />

and install a 1,950-foot surface waterway between<br />

Route 665 and the railroad tracks.<br />

“Ultimately, there will still be ponds where they<br />

mined clay (for the tile mill), but the entire property<br />

won’t be underwater as it is now,” Dhume said.<br />

A second hearing on the ditch petition was held a<br />

couple of months ago. The final hearing will take place<br />

at 11 a.m. Nov. 27 at the commissioners office. Prior to<br />

the hearing, the engineer’s office will send notices to<br />

property owners in the effected watershed. The notice<br />

will include the preliminary assessments, stating how<br />

much the drainage repairs will cost the property owners.<br />

The estimated cost of the project is $93,000, Dhume<br />

said. That figure includes a $31,000 contingency, much<br />

higher than the normal contingency because the project<br />

is unique and involves many unknowns.<br />

Board of Elections Expenses<br />

The commissioners approved a Board of Elections request<br />

for $26,400 to cover additional expenses for<br />

salaries, benefits, supplies, contract services and advertising.<br />

The money will come from the election revenue<br />

fund.<br />

Director Tim Ward said the funding request relates<br />

to increased staffing to handle a large number of absentee<br />

ballot requests, additional mailings to voters, a Secretary<br />

of State directive to increase ballot orders, and<br />

advertising of ballot issues.<br />

Ward noted that Mark Erbaugh, deputy director at<br />

the Board of Elections, is retiring at the end of this year.<br />

State competitors<br />

The London High School FFA soil judging<br />

team competed in the Ohio Agricultural<br />

State Soil Career Development Event on<br />

Oct. 13 at Dawes Arboretum. London<br />

placed 38th out of the nearly 50 teams<br />

that participated from all over Ohio. This<br />

is the first time in over four years that a<br />

London team has qualified for state competition.<br />

Participants included: (from left)<br />

Cade Smith, who placed 166th; Nicholas<br />

Berchtold, who placed 156th; Luke Peart,<br />

who placed 52nd; and Brooks Barber, who<br />
