At the Oct. 9 meeting of Port ClintonCity Council, the Council approved anordinance, 4-3, regarding the hiring of Jef-fer Mangels Butler & Mitchell, a Californiaconsulting rm, to help nd a developerfor Water Works Park. Mayor Vince Leonevetoed the ordinance, leaving the questionof what is the next step for WaterworksPark.

In order to move forward, Mayor Le-one has a concrete plan for us to start bylistening to one another and building a

consensus on what is best for Port Clinton

and its waterfront.Our community can be excellent atpulling together, said Leone.

According to Leone, there have beenmany plans and concepts for the water-front over the years. Leone thinks thatcouncil needs to refocus on the issues ofinfrastructure and the branding and im-proving of downtown Port Clinton thatare necessary to support any developmentat Waterworks Park.

We already have people coming here (to

Port Clinton). It is up to us to set the stage,

to capitalize on the downtown. He notedthat discussions on what to do about thewaterfront have been going on for decadesand that no one in the government hasthe perfect solution, no magic pill.

It has never been clear what should beon the waterfront. A developer needs tobe a company that is able to spend time inthe community, said Leone. He said theveto was about the consulting company,JMB&M, working via teleconferencingwithout coming to Port Clinton, and about

the other costs that would be incurred as

the process with JMB&M went forward.Leone cited recent improvements withparks, streets and infrastructure in PortClinton, and better signage that has in-creased usage of the transient docks this

year. He suggested that one way to gocould be the improvement of the water-front green space, a better marina and per-haps an ampitheater.

Councilwoman Kathy Mehl was

What now for Waterworks Park?

After months of construction, the NewPort Clinton Middle School will open forstudents on Thursday, Oct. 25. PatrickAdkins, Superintendent of Schools, metwith representatives from the construc-tion project on Wednesday and receivedthe news. We are extremely pleased withthe design of the new middle school andcant wait for the kids to get to see theirnew school.

To ease the transition, Middle Schoolstaff will need to have training to becomeacclimated to the new building and newtechnology and learn new emergency pro-cedures. They will also need time to moveand prepare classrooms. To accomplishthis, the school district requested waiverdays from the State of Ohio for Port Clin-ton Middle School. In addition to Monday,Oct. 22, which is a district-wide in-serviceday, students in grades 6, 7, and 8 only willnot have school on Oct. 23 and 24. Allother students will have school on Oct. 23

and 24.Mrs. Carrie Sanchez, PCMS Principal, is

excited the big day is nally arriving. Shesaid, We look forward to the rst day ofschool on Oct. 25 and I promise it willbe worth the wait. Port Clinton MiddleSchool students will bring letters and in-formation home about the trafc patternsand a special open house for students andtheir parents. The nal day of school inthe current building on Fourth Street willbe Friday, Oct. 19.

The community is invited to the Rib-bon Cutting and Community Open Houseon Saturday, Nov. 10 from 10 a.m. to noon.We are eager for everyone to see this state-of-the-art new school which is the result ofcommunity support, Mr. Adkins added.

surprised by Mayor Leones veto, and saysthat We need to nd out what the mayorwants to do at this point. There seems tobe confusion and needs to be clarity.

Councilman Randy Lipstraw fully sup-ports Mayor Leones veto, because usingJMB&M is primarily focused on devel-oping hotels and hotel-based resorts, andbecause he fears that the price tag with

JMB&M could go beyond the $25,000.Lipstraw emphasized that he is fully sup-portive of developing Waterworks Park,but that he does not support pigeon-hol-ing our options into hotels or hotel-typeresorts. Lipstraw favors looking at moremixed-use options, and focusing on sus-tainability and longevity of any water-front development.

Councilman Mike Snider also said hewas surprised by the mayors veto. Hespeculates that the legislation might be re-introduced at Council. Snider believes thatthe plan to use JMB&M is the right nextstep in the evolution of Waterworks Park.

Snider pointed out that the Water-works Park area has had many faces overthe years, from the time when a river ranthrough it, to the relocation of the highwayand the adding of landll, to the additionof the baseball eld, the transient docksand the improvements in utilities with theWalleye Festival.

Snider says that attempts to work out aplan for Waterworks Park internally havenot been successful, and that JMB&M hasthe experience and track record and accessto a pool of developers that has workedwell with clients in the past. He does notagree that, in this electronic age, a com-pany needs to be local or on site to makerecommendations or contacts.

Snider also notes that there is disagree-ment on Council as to what the public voteve years ago on Waterworks Park actuallymeant. Some on Council see the vote as amandate to actively pursue developmentof the Waterworks Park area and others seeit as simply a vote on rezoning.

I dont view this as a Republican/Demo-crat issue, but as a Port Clinton survival is-

sue, said Snider. Wonderful things havebeen happening in Port Clinton with theListening Room, the 1812 restaurant, theWednesday jazz nights at Slaters Pub. Thenext generation of entrepreneurs needs acatalyst, and that catalyst can be Water-works Park.

Laura Schlachter of Main Street PortClinton and the Port Clinton Chamber ofCommerce is saddened that we arent allcoming together on this issue. Main StreetPort Clintons desire is to work closelywith City Council and City Administra-tion on the redevelopment of our historicdowntown. Main Street Port Clinton willsupport the Citys decision regarding de-velopment of our downtown and are ex-cited to play a role in the revitalization ofour community.

According to Councilwoman Deb Benko,the next step for Waterworks Park is forPort Clinton residents to contact theircouncil representatives with commentsand questions. A list of council members,email addresses and phone numbers is onthe website at www.portclinton.com. Thephone number at City Hall is 419-734-5522.

The next Port Clinton City Councilmeeting is Oct. 23 at 7:30 p.m., at PortClinton City Hall, 1868 Perry Street.

Death penaltyThe death penalty is a provocative action

that I have agonized over for most of myseventy-four years. So how could someonelike me, who had never before given seri-ous thought to the detailed pros and consof capital punishment, ever become an ad-vocate for its elimination from Ohio Law?Actually, my recent conversion involveda three-step process: rst I was blessed to

spend two hours listening to Sister HelenPrejean speak of her lifes work to bringjustice to our justice system, second I readSister Prejeans book Dead Man Walking,and nally, I was personally touched by theincredible story of one innocent man, Mr.Joe DAmbrosio; whose wrongful convic-tion, death sentence and incarceration onOhios Death Row robbed him of 22 yearsof his personal freedom. Grace did all therest.

While on Death Row, Joe DAmbrosiospent his rst nine years making attempt,after attempt, after attempt to convincesomeone on the outside that he had beenwrongly convicted. His valiant efforts toget at least one person to believe in his in-

nocence all came up void until he met Fa-ther Neil Kookoothe in 1998. Father Neil isa Catholic priest who had previously beena practicing nurse, and who, subsequentto his ordination, became an attorney. Atlong last Joe had an advocate that not onlybelieved in his innocence, but was ready,willing and able to help wage a fourteen-

year legal war to overturn the injusticeswithin our justice system that would ulti-mately free this innocent man.

Once I heard the real-life stories told bythis convicted felon and the person mostresponsible for saving his life, I becameabsolutely convinced that others mustalso have an opportunity to listen to thesecompelling witnesses tell the truth. I was

prepared to do whatever I could to helpJoe and Father Neil share their stories. Andnow, I also had a new-found passion to

eliminate state-sponsored killing that mo-tivated me. Then it struck me there areother people out there who are just as pas-sionate about continuing to use the deathpenalty to mete out justice. Might they toohave a change-of-heart?

I now understand and accept that killingfor the sake of justice is always wrong; thatthe antidote to violence is not more vio-lence. We will all be better served by put-ting a stop to the executions; regardless ofour feelings to the contrary. Unfortunately,overcoming our personal hurdles to accept

such a change is so much easier said thandone. The foundation on which I have hadto reconcile my own internal conicts isto realize that my most crucial calling is toshow true compassion for everyone con-cerned: for the victims, for every one whofeels the anger, the pain and the sufferingrelated to capital crimes against their lovedones, and for the perpetrators as well.

Two honorable men will be offeringtheir personal stories that just might helpall of us (including our youth seventhgrade and above) to think seriously aboutthe honorable alternative.

Candidates for Ottawa County Commissioner MarkStahl and Jodi Regal made their case before the publicThursday night during the annual Candidates and Is-sues forum sponsored by the Busi-ness and Professional Women andthe Port Clinton Area Chamber ofCommerce. The primary source ofconcern was a $250,000 computernetwork system recently installed atthe Courthouse.

Jodi Regal, a Democrat and currentOttawa County Auditor, brought upthe issue during the Question andAnswer segment of the forum, not-ing that it was purchased on the statepurchasing system and not throughcompetitive bidding. She was an-swered by Commissioner Steve Arndtwho stated the lowest bid is not always the best bid. Wepurchased the previous system by bid and we had prob-lems with it. The new system came with consultants whocan x the problems when they arise. Regal indicated thatthe new system is wrought with problems.

Jodi Regal cited her scal experience as a primary reasonshe should be elected, noting that she knows the Countybudget better than anyone. She also noted, I do my own

research on issues. I listen to people every day. I have acommon sense management style.

Mark Stahl countered that in the last four years, theCounty has gone from decit to surplus thanks in largemeasure to the tight controls established by himself alongwith Steve Arndt and Democrat Jim Sass. We have main-tained the Countys Bond Rating and promoted effectivecommunications within the courthouse. Arndt echoedStahl saying that the last four years have been extremelychallenging from a scal standpoint. Weve experienceda 22% cut in appropriations and our revenues are up

only % from 10 years ago. Weve been able to stay aoatthrough attrition and moving pieces and parts.

Also speaking were former Commissioner and State Rep-resentative Darrel Opfer in support of Issue 2, a change inthe State Constitution to create a bi-partisan board to perform the task ofredistricting Ohio. Catawba residentRon Mainous spoke in opposition toIssue 2 stating that the State could beredistricted by unelected individualswho are not accountable.

The crowd heard from PC SchoolsTreasurer Jeff Dornbusch in supportof the renewal of a school levy, not-ing that over the years the millagehas been reduced to make certainthe amount of money brought in re-mains the same.

Dr. Dan Cadigan, a candidate forCounty Coroner noted that he wasrunning at the request of local families and Law Enforce-ment. Ottawa County is our home now, he said. I workhere and live here. He promised that he would make cer-tain that three elements would guide him as Coroner, de-pendability, accessibility and respect to families. Cadigansopponent, current Coroner Dr. Jerome McTague did notattend.

Old friends and political rivals Chris Redfern and RandyGardner also spoke. Redfern is running unopposed forthe 89th District Ohio House of Representatives. Gard-ner is running for the second time to be State Representa-tive, noting that in 27 years in the legislature he has nevermissed a roll call vote.

Steve Levorchik, running unopposed for Sheriff, listeda number of accomplishments that he has undertaken toreduce costs in his ofce in an attempt to make the Sher-iff s ofce run more like a business.

Pasta, Pumpkins and Politics

The rst graders at Immaculate Conception CatholicSchool have been busy learning their math facts and be-ginning to read, but this rst month of school has alsotaught them the life lesson of compassion and under-standing. Mrs. Rita McNutts rst grade class recentlyvisited the Ida Rupp Public Library. During this visit, theclass enjoyed a story called A Case for Adventure by Ka-tie Kerr. The book tells a tale of George, who is in the hos-pital. His days are long and he wishes for a life that he hastemporarily had to put on hold due to illness. A lady gifts

George with a pillowcase with a jungle scene. Suddenly,George nds himself riding an elephant and exploring the

jungle. Everyday thereafter for a week, a new pillowcaseand new adventure is given to George. This true story hasled to the formation of the Pillowcase Project which hasprovided more than 210,000 pillowcases to sick children.

Kayden Shrader, a rst grader in the class, and his sisterEmma, a third grader, know all too well how hard it is to

have someone close to you ghting a serious illness andsidelined from normal life. Theirs cousin, Devin Kohl-man, is a 12 year old who attends Port Clinton MiddleSchool boy and loves sports, video games, dogs, and hang-ing out with friends. Devin has a brain tumor and is cur-rently undergoing chemotherapy. Devin longs to get backon the football eld, but his treatments are expected totake over a year.

The story from the library gave the rst graders an ideaon how to make Devins life a little brighter. With the help

of Mrs. McNutt, the class began sewing and creating a va-riety of differently themed pillow cases for Devin. The en-tire school and the faculty also sponsored a Buck a JeansDay where the students were encouraged to dress downfor the day in exchange for a donation to Devin and hisfamily to offset the cost of medical bills. The class sent thepillowcases off to Devin with plenty of well wishes andprayers.

Mrs. Rita McNutt, her frst grade class and helpers display pillowcases that will brighten the day o Devin Kohlman.

BY YANEEK SMITHIts been a tough season for the Port Clin-

ton Redskins thus far, and Friday didntmake things any easier.

Going up against the Perkins Pirates,Port Clinton fell 46-0 to the top team inthe Sandusky Bay Conference. Perkins wasable to dictate the ow of the game andscore a number of points in its dominant

victory.With the win, the Pirates improve to 7-1

overall and 5-0 in the SBC while the Skinsfall to 1-7 overall and 0-5 in the league.

Perkins quarterback Brandon Smithcompleted 15-of-20 passes for 249 yards

and four touchdowns. As a team, the Pi-rates rushed for 184 yards. Austin Sparkshad 71 yards on the ground and onetouchdown and Mitch Benkey added 60

yards and two scores.Port Clintons offense was held in check,

accounting for only 73 yards. QuarterbackAddison Rospert, who suffered a thighbruise last week against St. Mary CC, was

limited by his injury Unfortunately, in-juries to several key players have held theSkins back this season.

I think we see progress and once youstart to get excited about things, some-one else gets hurt, said Port Clinton head

coach Toby Hammond. Its just tough onthe kids. Theyre not stupid, they knowwere losing some of our better players andwere forced to play kids that arent readyto play Friday night, theyre more used toSaturday morning, but thats all we got.

It was fun the kids played hard, theytook to the coaching and they gave it ev-erything they got. I was really proud of the

way the kids played.Hammond, whose squad has played

against the likes of Genoa and Delphos St.Johns, a Division VI powerhouse, said thatPerkins may very well be the best team theSkins have faced all season.

This week, the Skins host Huron, whois 5-3 overall and 3-2 in the SBC. The Ti-gers, who defeated Margaretta 35-0 lastweek, run a spread offense that is led byquarterback Cody Thompson. Thompson,who can cause damage in the air and onthe ground, threw for 309 yards and threetouchdowns and ran for another on theground this week. Wide receiver Aaron

Driftmyer, one of Thompsons primarytargets, had touchdown receptions of 41and 56 yards, respectively.

Were out-manned and its going to bevery difcult to beat them, Hammondsaid, but we can compete.

12/18

BY YANEEK SMITH

To give you an idea of the complex-ion of Fridays game between Clydeand Oak Harbor, consider the follow-ing: The Fliers opened the game withan onside kick, which they recovered,and scored 28 points in the rst quar-ter.

That was just a microcosm of thecontest between the two teams, whichended in a 68-21 Clyde victory.

There were two specic things thatthe Fliers did to take control of thegame early and sustain it throughout:(1) run the ball and (2) play good,sound defense.

Clyde running back Brad Smith,last years Sandusky Bay Conference

Player of the Year, had an incredibleperformance, running for 378 yardson 31 carries and six touchdowns,breaking the school record for thesingle-game rushing mark.

Clydes rst drive covered 50 yardsin seven plays and ended when quar-terback Tim Hoppe scored on aone-yard sneak. Alex Medleys extrapoint made it 7-0 and the Fliers neverlooked back.

After forcing a punt, the Fliers gota good punt return and started at theOak Harbor 46-yard-line. Smith took

over from there, scoring on a run that

saw him break several tackles andset the tone for what was to comethroughout the evening.

Later, Rocket linebacker Kaleb Ma-guire intercepted a pass at the Flier36 to set Oak Harbors offense upand they responded with quarterbackAustin Wiegand hitting Cliff Biggertfrom 20 yards out before JourdanMaguires extra point cut the decitto 13-7.

But another long run by Smith,this one a 65-yarder, pushed the leadto 19-7 and a two-point conversionmade it 21-7.

The Fliers scored another touch-down to go up 28-7 just before the

end of the rst quarter.With the win, the Fliers improve to4-4 overall and 3-2 in the SanduskyBay Conference. The Rockets fall to6-2 and 4-1 in the league.

We got beat in every phase of thegame, not only offensively and de-fensively but special teams, also saidOak Harbor head coach Mike May.They got the momentum early andwe never recovered. Weve got tomove on (from this) and keep work-ing.

Oak Harbors rushing attack was

held in check as Mark Konieczy ran

for 42 yards on 17 carries. The Rock-ets were able to do some damagethrough the air as Wiegand complet-ed 7-of-13 passes for 118 yards, twotouchdowns and an interception. A.J.Cecil caught two passes for 63 yardsand a score and also scored on an endaround from 36 yards out.

Oak Harbor, which has two gamesremaining, hosts St. Mary CentralCatholic next week. The Panthers,who are 2-6 overall and 1-4 in theSBC, lost to Edison, 63-39, last week.They are led by running back Bran-don Green, who rushed for 240 yardson 34 carries and three touchdownsin SMCCs 34-26 win over Port Clin-

ton two weeks ago. Panthers quar-terback Alex Guerra and his brother,Adam, a wide receiver, form a potentduo that could cause some problemsfor the Oak Harbor defense.

After a slow start to their season,SMCC has come on strong as of late,defeating Port Clinton two weeks agobefore putting up 39 points on theChargers last week. If the Rockets areto win this game, theyll have to holdGreen and the Panther rushing attackin check.
