ST. JOHNS – With many uncertainties facing BinghamTownship, one thing seems to be clear – without voterapproval of up to 2 mills for debt reduction, the townshipwill be broke.
What happens then is unclear. The State of Michiganwould likely send in an emergency financial manager, butwhat that individual would do is anyone’s guess, accord-ing to Jim Ostrowski, Bingham Township supervisor.
The township’s current financial predicament is theculmination of events that have taken place over the past10 to 12 years, Ostrowski said during a town hall meetingApril 18, which was held to give voters a chance to askquestions and express their concerns and opinions on thesubject. About 90 people attended the meeting.
“It’s a perfect storm, with not only the crashing of theeconomy, along with the virtual stoppage of any new con-struction going on,” said Ostrowski, “there’s the reduc-tion in value of homes, a number of things caught up atthe same time and have affected the township dramati-cally to the point where last year we ran out of money inOctober. We had no money in our checking account to payour bills.
“That same situation loomed as we made the decision toask for the millage and leave it up to the voters to tell ushow they think we should attack this situation we are in.”
Township treasurer Michael Trebesh says the town-ship is on course to run out of money in July this year.
The township has long-term debt, primarily from sev-eral water and sewer projects. It is not collecting enoughmoney annually to cover the debt obligation.
“If you add up all the payments (for debts), the amountneeded every year out of the general fund or staterevenue sharing is somewhere between $190,000 and$200,000,” said Gary Hufnagel, township trustee. “Forthe next six or seven years, the township is going to

Bingham Twp. seeks millage for debt reductionneed about $200,000 a year coming out of our generalfund and state revenue sharing, over and above what rev-enue comes in. Two mills is roughly somewhere around$200,000 a year.”
Bingham Township’s tax revenues have shrunk as thevalue of homes has gone down. State revenue sharing isdown. The debt exists and must be paid.
The Bingham Township board is giving township resi-dents the opportunity to have their say in how to address
the crisis.They have two choices – approve the request for 2
mills for four years, or vote it down and take theirchances with a possible appointment of an emergencyfinancial manager appointed by the state.
Bingham Township residents will have their chance tovote on this issue Tuesday, May 3. Polls will be open from7 a.m. to 8 p.m. at the Clinton County RESA EducationalCenter located south of St. Johns.

ST. JOHNS – You don’t have to be anuclear physicist to understand that a $600million grant for the expansion of theNational Superconducting Cyclotron Lab-oratory at Michigan State University ishuge - in more ways than one.

“All of our talks are designed for indi-viduals who may not have great knowl-edge or understanding of the lab or what asuperconducting cyclotron does - we makenuclear physics interesting for anyone,”
Youngs says about the presentation thatincludes video clips of the facility, Power-Point and even some “live demos” usingteaching tools.
The recent grant award adds a newdimension to that research. Constructionof the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams(FRIB) will enable researchers to studynuclei that were previously not attainable.
“The FRIB will be a tremendous addi-tion to our facility, and its positive impactfor the overall mid-Michigan area is huge,”Youngs says.

Ashley was leaguechampion in the 300 hurdles and runner-up in the 100 hurdles.Peacock was first in the league, third at regionals, fifth at the honorroll meet and 16th in the Division 2 state meet in the 800.

year’s league championship team, is poised to make another runfor the Red title. St. Johns won a district title last year, but lostseven starters to graduation.

this spring for the league title. Mason won the CAAC Red last year,but Owosso will be coming off a deep, state tournament run andwill be returning a majority of its starters. St. Johns only returnsthree starters from last year’s team, but Nurenberg will be oneof the best hitters in Mid-Michigan this spring, and should helpmake things interesting at the top of the league standings.
ST. JOHNSw Last season: 13-18, fourth in CAAC Redw Coach: Jake Parker, first seasonw Top Returnees: Jared Nurenberg (Sr.- SS, P), Cooper Davis (Sr.-

Zach Werner (Jr.- IF), Connor Kingsbury (Sr.- OF)w Outlook: The Redwings will look to rebound after a disappointing
2010 season. Parker takes over a very young, but talented group,led by three senior starters. Nurenberg is one of the best all-around players in the area, and Pung is a guy who can play anyposition on the field. Look for St. Johns to finish in the upper halfin the CAAC Red this spring.

WESTPHALIA — TheP e w a m o - W e s t p h a l i aSchools Board of Educationhas made its choice for thedistrict’s next superinten-dent, offering the positionto Jason Mellema duringa special meeting on April18.
Mellemawas one ofthree final-ists whoreceived asecond inter-view withthe board.He is cur-rently serving as the prin-cipal at Ravenna MiddleSchool, and is looking for-ward to the challenge ofleading a school district.
“I feel very privilegedto be selected,” said Mel-lema. “It is a challengingtime in education, but I amexcited about the opportu-
nity to serve in the capac-ity as the leader of a schooldistrict like P-W.”
School board memberswill meet with Mellemathis week to negotiate asalary. If all the details areworked out, the board willofficially vote to hire Mel-lema at its next meeting onMay 16.
P-W Board PresidentKathy Wood said Mellema’sbackground was key to hisselection.
“He is a well-roundedcandidate with interests inacademics and arts as wellas athletics,” said Wood.“He brings an excitementin other areas like technol-ogy, too. We believe thathe will take P-W to the nextlevel.”
Mellema has a bache-lor’s degree in educationfrom Hope College, major-ing in social studies witha minor in German. Hereceived a master’s degreein sports administration
from Central MichiganUniversity. He is also com-pleting work in the educa-tional leadership programat CMU.
Mellema served as ateacher in the HoltonSchool District until beinglaid off in 2003. After com-pleting work on his mas-ter’s degree, he was hiredby the Ravenna SchoolDistrict in 2004 as theathletic director. He laterbecame the assistant prin-cipal at Ravenna HighSchool before taking hiscurrent position as prin-cipal /athletic director atRavenna Middle School.
“The good thing is I gotto be very involved with theschool system,” said Mel-lema. “With these smallerschool districts, you haveto wear a lot of hats, whichalso means you have to beflexible and able to adapt.”
Mellema also credits hisparents for his success ineducation.
“Both of my parents areinvolved in education,” saidMellema. “My father wasa principal in Fremont formany years. And mymother is still a teacher. Tohave parents who have hadthat type of experience is ablessing because I am ableto go to them and learnfrom their experiences.”
Mellema has been verypleased with what he hasseen of the P-W School Dis-trict thus far.
“I feel that this is a goodfit for my experience,” saidMellema. “P-W reminds meof Ravenna in that theyare both rural schools witha lot of farms and a lotof parents understand thevalue of having a goodwork ethic. I have beenimpressed with what P-Wstudents have accom-plished academically. TheirACT scores are amazingand they have good pro-grams from the elemen-tary school on up.”

I write to inform you of a crisis that is facing St JohnsPublic Schools. I realize we are not alone, and that thiscrisis is affecting schools everywhere in Michigan, but Iwould be remiss as your Superintendent of Schools if Idid not provide you with this information.
I understand Michigan struggles with its state budgetand has for some time. Cutbacks have been felt in manysectors of our society as well as K – 12 education but, forthe first time, St. Johns Public Schools will be impactedheavily in the classroom.
Each Michigan school dis-trict is required to makeannual contributions into thestate retirement system. Thesize of these payments hassteadily increased each yearand St. Johns Public Schoolshas been able to absorb thoseincreases without directly impacting students. How-ever, SJPS retirement contribution rate is scheduled toincrease from 20.66 percent to 24.46 percent in 2011-12and then to increase again to 27.37 percent the followingyear. Next year’s increase alone accounts for an addi-tional reduction of $239 per student. Combined with Gov-ernor Snyder’s proposed $470 per student foundationreduction, this equals a total cut of $709 per student.For 2011-2012 this equates to a budget shortfall of about$2.4 million to SJPS or about 10 percent of our annualbudget.
We have faced a number of funding decreases andcost escalations in the past. Until now our staff has beenable to keep the impact of education cuts away fromthe children. Now, unfortunately, these cuts will directlyimpact programs and children’s education. As we workthrough the possibilities, I believe we may lay off asmany as 22 teaching staff, increasing class size fromfirst through 12th grade, as well as significantly cut stu-dent transportation.
Teachers are telling me they anticipate having classeslarger than 35 students next year. To minimize impactson our students, we are considering every aspect of ouroperations including the elimination of all high schoolbussing as well as all in town bussing. These cuts aredrastic measures. If there is anywhere else to cut, Iassure you your Board of Education will go there first.
Other considerations that will be presented to theBoard of Education include athletics, music, secretaries,and even further classroom support staff. School closureis also being evaluated, although the board has said itis not interested in closing another school at this time.SJPS has cut $3.1 million from its general fund budgetover the past 10 years.
These cuts included the director of technology,middle school principal, transportation coordinator, anelementary principal, as well as custodians, counselors,teachers and teaching assistants. There simply is noth-ing else left to cut.
St Johns Public Schools has carefully accumulateda $2.9 million general fund balance over the years. Ifthis money was used to simply stave off the impact ofthese cuts for one year it would potentially bankruptthe school district. This fund balance will have to bespent down significantly as part of mitigating the cur-rent budget cutting process. The future of SJPS couldbe in jeopardy.
St. Johns schools facing drastic cuts
KenLadouceur
GUESTCOLUMN
I have heard it said that if our teachers would con-tribute only 10 percent towards their benefits, then thisfinancial crisis would take care of itself. Currently all ofour staff contribute 23 percent toward their benefits andthis crisis remains very real for SJPS.
Again, this is a very serious situation. I have includedthe names and addresses of your State legislators. Theyare also working hard on their budget proposals, sothings can change regarding school funding.
I ask that you contact your legislator and voice youropinion on this matter. I assure you we will continue to
seek cost reductions outside of the classroom, and wewill evaluate every possible revenue source.
The St. Johns Public Schools Board of Education andstaff are determined to continue the tradition of provid-ing the highest quality education in spite of the circum-stances.
If you have any questions, contact me [email protected] or (989) 227-4001.

Like most school dis-tricts around the state,the Fowler Public Schoolsadministration and boardof education did not fullyexpect the dramaticallydeep cut to K-12 schoolfunding that has been pro-posed in the governor’sbudget.
The anticipated possi-bility of a $200,000 budgetdeficit for the 2011-12school year quickly dou-bled with the release ofthe governor’s proposedbudget.
Specifically, the $470per student reduction infunding combined with the3.8 percent increase in theretirement rate will createa $414,000 deficit in ourbudget moving from this
year to next. That assumesno added costs to the dis-trict for anything but con-tracted steps and longevityincreases. It assumes afreeze in wages and insur-ance costs, and a freeze inall other budget areas.
At their April meeting,the board of educationapproved a budget man-agement plan that I rec-ommended. Approximatelythree-fourths of our budgetchallenge, roughly$300,000 will need to be
managed through a com-bination of expenditure infund equity and negotiatedcost control with ouremployees.
Through prudent bud-geting and negotiations,which are a credit to ourboard and employees alike,we have a reasonable fundequity of approximately 14percent that can be usedover time to support pro-grams and staffing whilestate funding is lacking.
We will seek to managethe other one-fourth ofthe deficit, approximately$100,000, through a seriesof restructurings that willprovide revenues for class-room instruction not onlyin the upcoming year, butinto the future as well.
Please log on to thedistrict website atwww.fowlerschools.com toget more specific informa-tion on our budget chal-lenges and managementplan, as well as to par-ticipate in the communitysurvey.
I recognize that thismajor overhaul of ourfunding structure at boththe state and local level iscreating immensechallenges, but it is alsocreating the incentive tothink in new and creativeways about a comprehen-sive vision for the role ofour school in our commu-nity.
I am convinced thatthe successful resolution toour school district’s finan-
cial challenges is depen-dent on sustaining andenhancing the essentialpartnership we have withour community.
Our local families, busi-nesses, property owners,and employers benefitfrom a high-performing,service-oriented schooldistrict that retains cur-rent community membersand draws new ones.
Our school district ben-efits from the studentenrollment and financialsupport provided by thesuccessful businesses,employers, families, andtaxpayers that makeFowler their community ofchoice.
As a school leader anda community member, I
feel an urgency and anobligation to partner withall interests to emergea stronger, more unifiedcommunity with programs,services, and opportunitiesthat serve our existing res-idents better than ever andattract young families toreturn to or join our com-munity.
In all honesty, I cer-tainly feel frustrated andfearful to a degree, butI also have a sense ofexcitement and privilegeat having the opportunityto work with others at thiscritical moment to create abetter future for Fowler’snext generation.
Neil Hufnagel is the super-intendent of Fowler Public
Schools.

GUESTCOLUMN
Surcharge for 9-1-1 isn’t needed
As County Commissioners organize the conversationon the issue of supporting a referendum to increase rev-enue collected on each of our phones, their actions havespoken louder than their words.
For years, they have chosen not to correct 9-1-1 Emer-gency Dispatch dead zones.
Opposing 9-1-1 Dispatch is not my position.There is nothing more gut wrenching than a public
safety officer in the middle of an emergency when her/hisradio goes silent.
Without 9-1-1 Dispatch and/or other officers to assistwith directional communication, officers are operating inthe dark.
The reality of this probability for our public safetyofficers has existed for years.
Supporting the referendum or not, the 9-1-1 Dispatchwill not be interrupted. After collecting revenue at $2 perphone, there are millions of dollars for dead zones anda promised half million tax dollar allocation in the 2011budget for operations.
The 25-cent increase is for the “need” of operationalfunds generating $200,000 annually.
If we spend wisely, is there a need for increases?Oppose 9-1-1. No! Oppose commissioner’s spending
priorities and demand accountability. Yes!Marie E. Howe

Dear President Obamaand Senate Majority LeaderReid, what part of deficitspending don’t you under-stand? Don’t you realize thatthis country can no longerafford outrageous debt?While the U.S. “burns,”you’ve been “fiddling” byplaying politics. The blamegame isn’t going to workanymore. It’s time to realizethat your half-baked ideasare hurting this countrybeyond compare.
What is this malarkeyabout running the countryfrom week to week becauseyou and House SpeakerBoenher can’t agree onwhat to cut out of a multi-trillion dollar 2010 budget?A budget that was supposeto be approved last Septem-ber. Which, Mr. President,was when your party hadfull control of the house,senate, and the presidencyand you didn’t take lead-ership to make sure abudget got passed. Shameon you. Could this have beenbecause your party fearedlosing seats in Congress inthat election, if the budgethad been voted on beforethose elections? Now, morethen six months later youhave to keep running thegovernment week to weekbecause there’s still no per-manent budget agreed onfor the current fiscal year.
If we ran our householdsand businesses that way,our credit worthiness wouldbe in the toilet. What givesyou the right to do that withour country? It sure isn’tthe Constitution.
Mr. Obama and Mr. Reid,please put aside your philos-ophy of Hope and Changebefore we have no countryto call our own anymore?Are you so ideological thatyou can’t see what is hap-pening to it? If this was yourgame plan all along, whata cruel joke to pull on theAmerican people. Please bea man and honor the oathyou took to uphold the Con-stitution and defend andprotect the people (all thepeople) of the United Statesof America before it’s toolate.
To those of you whoagree with what I just wroteabove, there is a meetingyou should attend. It’s anupstart Tea Party Patriotsmeeting Tuesday April 26at 6 p.m. (if you wish topurchase dinner) or comeat 7 p.m. for just themeeting, it will be heldat Ryan’s Roadhouse eastState Street (M-21) in St.Johns. If you are concernedabout the direction thiscountry’s going, pleasecome and let your presenceand voice be heard.
