School levy

on ballot

By Linda Dillman

Staff Writer

With less than two months to go before

voters go to the polls, Jefferson Local

Schools Superintendent William Mullett

wants to make sure the critical nature of a

3.5-mill emergency levy is well known.

“The district ended the 2018-2019 school

year with a deficit of approximately $850,000

due to increased costs,” said Mullett during

a Sept. 9 board meeting. “In order to keep existing

programs and services, we need a little

more help from our community.

“We have not asked for a new operating

levy in 20 years.”

If the levy passes, the cost to the taxpayer

will be $10.21 per month per

$100,000 of property valuation.

According to Mullett, the combination of

a continual drop in state funding over a 10-

year period and increased costs through

mandates is depleting school coffers.

“Federal and state mandated costs, including

special education and preschool,

have gone up dramatically in the last five to

seven years,” he said. “In one year, special

education costs went up nearly $300,000.

Mullett said many of the children with

special needs who are served by the county

are now served by the district, including

Drake appointed to Mt. Sterling council seat

Mount Sterling village council is back to full capacity.

Mayor Billy Martin administered the oath of office

to Andrew Drake at council’s Sept. 9 meeting.

Drake takes the council seat formerly held by Mike

Bennett who resigned last month. Appointed after a

unanimous vote by council during a special meeting on

Sept. 5, Drake will finish out the two years of the unexpired

term.

As a result of the appointment, Drake has withdrawn

from the race for a full four-year term on council.

Two such seats are up for election in the Nov. 5 general

election.

Tim Ward, director of the Madison County Board of

Elections, said it is too late to remove Drake’s name

from the November ballot. The board will post notices

at the polling places and in absentee ballot mailings explaining

that Drake has withdrawn from the race and

that any votes cast for him will not count.

Originally a resident of Washington Courthouse,

Drake, 44, has lived in Mount Sterling for 10 years with

his wife, Holly, and daughter, Vivian. He graduated

from The Ohio State University in 1997 and from Capital

University Law School in 2005. He works as an attorney

for an insurance software company.

Drake was one of two residents who applied for the

vacant council seat.

“Mount Sterling promises a lot of opportunity and is

ideally suited to growth,” he said. “I think the village is

turning a corner, and I would like to help keep pushing

it through and capitalize on what is here now.”

In other action on Sept. 9, council heard a second

reading on a measure that gives the village administrator

certain powers of a police chief. These powers do not

extend to the ability to make arrests, Mayor Martin

said, but are limited in scope to such things as temporarily

closing a street for repair or a parade, and other

functions necessary for safety and flow of traffic and

parking. Martin said he was perplexed by how quickly

rumor and false information circulated around the vil-

London City Schools will be looking to fill a vacancy on the school

board come early January.

Two board seats are up for election in the Nov. 5 general election,

however only one person filed to run. John Stahl is seeking re-election.

Ed Maynor, who holds the other seat that expires at the end

of this year, opted not to run.

It will be up to the remaining board members to fill the empty

seat. By law, they must wait until 10 days after the seat becomes

vacant to take action. That means the earliest they can go about

filling the seat is Jan. 10. They then have 30 days from that point

to fill the seat.

The board holds its annual organizational meeting in early January.

Superintendent Dr. Lou Kramer said the 2020 meeting likely

will take place on Jan. 14.

“I suggest the board take action at that

time,” he said.

According to board policy, the district

will follow these steps to fill the vacancy:

• The board will seek qualified and interested

candidates from the community

through the news media, word of mouth, or

contacts with appropriate organizations.

• All applicants will submit a notice of

their interest in writing to the district treasurer.

• The board may interview interested

those with higher needs.

While, if approved, the levy would generate

$769,711 per year for seven years, there

is still a gap the district needs to fill to make

up the deficit.

candidates to ascertain their qualifications.

Appointment will be made by a majority vote of the remaining

board members.

The person the board selects will serve two years of the four-year

term. The remaining two years will be up for election in November

2021.

Kramer presented the board with this information at their Sept.

10 regular meeting.

In other action at the meeting, the board thanked the district’s

various support organizations for the work they do. They included:

the high school’s Academic Achievement Booster Club, Music Boosters

and Athletic Boosters; the parent-teacher organizations at the

middle school and elementary school; and the Touchdown Club and

Gridiron Club.

The board approved three overnight trips for next year: a sixthgrade

trip to Camp Nuhop Outdoor Education Center, March 25-

27; eighth-grade trip to Washington D.C., May 12-15; and the FFA

trip to the National FFA Convention in Indianapolis, Oct. 30-Nov.

2. The board also approved the Spanish Department’s request for

an extended trip to Spain in June 2021.

The board approved several supplemental contracts for band,

homecoming and coaching positions, including contracts for Alyssa

Bexfield to serve as varsity volleyball head coach and Michael

(Shane) Crawford as varsity softball head coach.

The board accepted the donation of weight equipment valued at

$2,500 from Elite Fitness for use at the high school.

The board’s next regular meeting is set for 6:30 p.m. Oct. 8 in

Room 311 at the high school.

“The district has begun a program of requiring new businesses

in the industrial park to pay a one cent per square foot (of developed

space) side agreement,” Mullett said. “As well, we are working with

the village on a shared tax agreement for a five-year period that

will also bring in additional revenue.”

During his presentation to the board, Mullett said the district is

asking the village of West Jefferson to split income tax revenue on

businesses generating $1 million or more. He estimated the agreement

could bring in an additional $150,000.

“The revenue from the industrial park–in total–pays for only

one payroll in our annual budget,” Mullett stated.

“Because all of the businesses in the park in which the schools

have agreements that are 100 percent tax (property) abated, the

district only receives about 14 percent of the taxes otherwise owed

to the district.”

Mullett told board members that if the same properties were not

abated and were required to pay the full tax on their properties, the

amount would be more than $2.6 million.

Open enrollment netted the district $500,000 when it was implemented

because the schools had empty seats to fill. However,

due to anticipated growth, administrators have since closed open

enrollment, resulting in a $150,000 drop in revenue to $350,000.

“The district collects the lowest millage in Madison County at

33.66 mills,” Mullett said, “and has continued to provide safe, wellkept

buildings and facilities.

“We have excellent staff and administrators who offer a broad

curriculum to meet the needs of today’s students. We have worked

hard to keep taxes in our community as low as possible while still

delivering an excellent educational value for our community.”

Cruise-in proceeds go to scholarships

By Kristy Zurbrick

Madison Editor

For the fourth straight year, the Martha

Geib Memorial Cruise-In brought together

members of the London community to enjoy

classic cars and fellowship to benefit local

students.

The cruise-in took place on July 28. The

event’s organizers presented a $4,000 donation

to the London Academic Achievement

Boosters at the Sept. 10 London school

board meeting. Marshall Geib, Martha’s

husband and a member of the Boosters, accepted

the check.

The donation is earmarked for scholarships

in memory of Dr. Martha Geib, a London

graduate who worked as a pediatrician

in the community and served on the London

school board. Students are chosen for the

scholarship based on academics and community

service.

“Martha believed that in order for communities

to survive, they need social capital—individuals

willing to get involved,” said

Stephanie Huddleston, one of the event organizers.

“The committee wants to thank

the community for their support of the

cruise-in each year.”

In addition to Huddleston, the committee

includes Marci Bogenrife, Melissa Canney,

Connie Dwyer, Christina Finney, Bonnie

Hamilton and Terri Miller.

Recording fees going up

Effective Oct. 17, statewide recording

fees for most documents will increase by $6

due to enactment of House Bill 166, the

state budget legislation. The new recording

fee for the first two pages will be $34; previously,

it was $28. The cost for each additional

page remains at $8, the same as is set

by current law. Half of all recording fees collected

must be submitted to the state to the

credit of the Ohio Housing Trust Fund. For

Corner of Rtes. 38 and 40 - London

Molly Caren Agricultural Center

Learn to clear hurdles

at Farm Science Review

There’s no shortage of challenges for

farmers these days: delays in planting, low

commodity prices, and dwindling amounts

of hay to feed farm animals.

At a time when farmers might be seeking

advice on dealing with those and other obstacles,

Farm Science Review 2019 will offer

that, plus the latest in farm technology and

products.

The three-day agricultural trade show,

set for Sept. 17-19, offers educational talks

and opportunities to speak one-on-one with

experts from The Ohio State University College

of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental

Sciences (CFAES), which sponsors the

annual event at the Molly Caren Agricultural

Center near London.

“With last fall and this spring being two

of the most challenging seasons for farmers

in recent history, you can visit many exhibitors

and experts on-site to discuss situations

you haven’t had to experience before,”

said Nick Zachrich, manager of Farm Science

Review.

Now in its 57th year, the event offers relevant

and up-to-date information to farmers

on topics ranging from crop diseases to soil

health. Farmers can learn how to reduce

input costs and increase efficiency at a time

when both are particularly crucial.

“All farmers will have to come up with

ways to be more efficient, both in animal

agriculture and grain production to be able

to plant and harvest crops in smaller

weather windows. Farm Science Review is a

valuable resource for them,” Zachrich said.

In one location, growers can visit with

many experts and see the newest innovations

on the market. The event draws more

than 100,000 people over the three days. It

features 4,000 product lines and over 700

commercial and educational exhibits, as

well as workshops and presentations delivered

by CFAES experts.

Farm Science Review hours are 8 a.m.-5

p.m. Sept 17-18 and 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Sept. 19.

Tickets are $7 online and at Ohio State University

Extension county offices and participating

agribusinesses, or $10 at the gate.

Children ages 5 and younger are admitted

at no charge. The Madison County Extension

Solutions for tough times

Jolene Brown, a family business consultant,

will give talks at the Farm Science Review

Sept. 18-19.

In talking to farmers across the Midwest,

Jolene Brown, a professional speaker and

family business consultant, offers some unexpected

advice to those overwhelmed by

the stress of cultivating the land.

Call your family doctor, she’ll say. “When

you make the appointment, tell them you

have a sore throat.”

A sore throat?

The farmer will look at her awkwardly.

Yes, she will assure them, a sore throat.

“Once you get into the office with the doctor,

tell the doctor what you’ve told me—that

you’re having trouble sleeping, you’re anxious

all the time, often irritated,” she says.

To a farmer, a sore throat or another

physical ailment is a legitimate reason to

see a doctor. And farmers are more likely to

make the appointment with that as an excuse

than to say they’re depressed, she said.

They might not even know they’re depressed.

Once they see the doctor, they

might open up and the doctor could direct

them to a counselor or other clinician,

Brown said.

“I want people to first look into the mirror

and take care of themselves and then

their families,” she said.

Reaching out to check on their neighbors

is critical as well, she said.

Calling this a “tipping-point year,”

Brown referred to the various stressors this

year for farmers including weather that delayed

or prevented planting, international

tariffs that have decreased demand for agricultural

goods, and low prices for agricultural

commodities.

Brown leans toward the unconventional

in her approach to farm families who come

to her trying to improve their businesses.

She will present “Stop Fighting on the Way

to the Funeral Home” at the Farm Science

Review on Sept. 18 from 1 to 2 p.m. and

again on Sept. 19 from 10 to 11 a.m.

In her presentation, Brown will share

the mistakes families make that break up

their businesses. In economically challenging

times, farmers especially need a solid

foundation for their businesses, she said.

“This is not a year when we can say,

‘Hang on for another two months and we’ll

be back where we were,’” said Brown, who,

together with her husband, farms corn and

soybeans in Iowa.

One season of low commodity prices or

one season of weather that affects yields can

be dealt with, but some farmers have been

struggling for several years. So they need to

focus on what they can control or change

about their business to do better, Brown

said.

The most common mistake that proprietors

of family-owned farms make is that

they operate as a “family-first business,”

she said.

That means they make decisions based

on habits and assumptions while ignoring

business realities and conflict.

“By having a business-first family, you

honor your family by doing the business

right,” she said. “You can increase your productivity,

profitability and peace of mind.

And you can still sit together at the holiday

table.”

Brown will give her talks in the Celebration

Tent at the west end of the Farm Science

Review grounds.

Currently, there’s a shortage of workers,

including service technicians, welders, turfgrass

managers, horticulture growers, licensed

veterinary technicians, greenhouse

managers, and sales and marketing specialists,

he said.

Adults seeking a career change or high

school students looking to get into an agriculture-related

Corner of Rtes. 38 and 40 - London

Molly Caren Agricultural Center

Exercise in a combine? It can be done

With all the bending, lifting, and repetitive

moves that farming demands, the career

can exact a toll on a person’s

body–young or old.

Pain might seem unavoidable, the inevitable

cost of cultivating the land. However,

there are ways to prevent long- and

short-term injuries, in part through exercises

that can be done while sitting in a

tractor or a combine.

More exercise?

“When you’ve already worked 14 hours a

day, you don’t want to workout. But there is

a way to fit some exercises and stretching

into your routine without having to go to the

gym,” said Laura Akgerman, disability services

coordinator for Ohio AgrAbility.

The program, offered by The Ohio State

University College of Food, Agricultural,

and Environmental Sciences, offers free assessments

for people with disabilities, to

help determine which kinds of assistive

technology they might need.

When farmers sit idle in a tractor or

other vehicle, they can use that time to

stretch, just like people who work in offices

can do from their desks, Akgerman said.

At the Farm Science Review, AgrAbility

staff are offering daily sessions at 11 a.m.

Sept. 17-19, featuring tips on exercising and

preventing injury. An occupational therapist

and an exercise coordinator will lead

the sessions and answer questions.

“You don’t have to wear workout clothes.

These exercises you can do in jeans and

boots,” Akgerman said.

The routine will include stretches to reduce

the odds that peoples’ backs, necks and

knees will rebel at the end of a long day on

the farm. Participants will discover what

they can do to support their backs and

necks, and they’ll learn effective ways to

carry, push or pull equipment so they don’t

suffer pain later.

Not surprising to anyone who has

worked on a farm, “A lot of farmers have

back pain,” Akgerman said.

“If you have limited range of motion or it

really hurts to do something, we’re going to

show you how to modify not only the exercise

you do, but how you do the work as well,

to show you how you can use your body differently,”

she said.

AgrAbility’s offerings at the Farm Science

Review also will include an exhibit of a

garage/farm shop designed to accommodate

a wheelchair. Visitors can test out barn

doors that open like automatic garage doors,

and they can see an Action Trackchair, an

all-terrain wheelchair, as well as an automated

lift that allows someone in a wheelchair

to get into a truck or other vehicle.

“All of these are about increasing independence

and easing the strenuous aspects

of farming,” Akgerman said.

Visit agrability.osu.edu for a full list of

AgrAbility’s offerings at the Review.
