to create a swale from the roadto the marsh east of theneighborhood. From there, thewater would flow south througha creek and under Cedar Road.Cattell said the culverts
under Cedar Road are largeenough to handle floodwaterfrom a 50 to 100 year storm.On June 11, trustees entered
into a purchase agreement tobuy the home of Zlatko andAnn Grahovac at 13103 MarilynDrive for $140,000. A June 29closing is expected, contingentupon the Geauga CountyProsecutor’s Office’s review andapproval of the documents.The Grahovacs originally
listed their home for $179,000last September, said Vic Cizekof Realty Net.Their property backs up to
the marsh and, if a swale werecut through the property, itwould provide a path for waterto flow in a storm, Cattell said.The engineer’s office could
survey the property in the falland design the project over thewinter, he said, adding the projectcould go forward whenevertrustees decide to do it.A number of South
Woodside Drive residents wereinvited to attend the meeting,
which was moved from thetown hall to the fire stationmeeting room to accommodatethe expected crowd.If those residents were
hoping for a solution to relieveflooding on their street as well,they left disappointed.“This project will not to
anything for South Woodside,”Cattell said, adding it would notstop flooding if the area seesanother 250-year storm.Storm sewers are only good
for up to a 50-year storm, heexplained, and if infrastructurewere built to handle the 250- to500-year storms, the expensewould eliminate other necessaryprojects.One reason trustees want to
solve the problem is becausethe constant flooding isundermining the roads, TrusteeMike Joyce said.The first of possibly three
phases should keep floodwatersfrom average, 50-year stormsfrom entering homes, he said.While the county will do the
engineering work and offerengineering support, it will beup to the township to cover thecost of the excavation.Trustees said there are no
plans to assess property ownersfor cutting a swale across theGrahovac property.However, if the creek bed
along which floodwaters areexpected to escape is blocked,the Ohio Revised Code clearlysays it is up to property owners— not the government — tokeep their waterway clear,Cattell said.
“As soon as water leaves the(township) right-of-way, itbecomes the owners’responsibility,” he explained.Road Superintendent Rob
Pealer said he would work withChagrin River WatershedPartners to see if there are anygrants available to help out withthe project.Trustee Judy Caputo said if
the cost is more than $50,000,the township would have toadvertise for bids.While some residents
suggested the creation of abroad plan to address all floodareas in the township, Pealerrecommended against it.“We have to untangle this
mess one piece at a time,” he said.Following the public
comment portion of themeeting, trustees unanimouslyvoted to allocate $139,881 tobuy the property, which theGeauga County Auditor’sOffice values at $144,100.They also approved a
purchase order for $1,000payable to Realty Net Inc. ofChesterland.In other action, trustees
signed a resolution to resurfaceEast Hill and Lyman drives, andanother to chip seal parts ofSperry and Heath roads.
district has on the books a 1-milloperating levy due to expireDec. 31, 2019, as well as a 0.7-mill operating levy that willexpire Dec. 31, 2025.The former levy was “all
about land acquisition,” Curtinsaid, adding, “We have fulfilledthe promises that we made backin 2000.”Curtin also said based upon
budget projections, the parkdistrict will be able to make
maintain the parks andcomplete its projects scheduledthrough 2019 with this levystrategy.“As we transition from being
in an acquiring kind of a modeto building up services in theparks for the people, we havecarefully projected ahead whatour capital projects will be,”said Patterson. “We can dothings we need to do byreplacing this levy.”He added, “What’s also
important is we can reducepeople’s taxes by doing this.”

across Auburn at the bridge,causing even more trafficproblems at busy times of theday.Geauga County Deputy
Engineer Alan Prescottattended the Munson TownshipTrustees’ June 12 meeting todiscuss the best way to keeptraffic from sliding between thebarricades at the intersectionand across the bridge.Just because the bridge is
still in place does not meantraffic can use it, he added.Trustee Todd Ray said there
would be no access to theintersection to anyone exceptemergency vehicles, which haveto be able to travel north andsouth on Auburn Road.“Safety forces will be able to
get through the staggeredbarricades,” he said, but no oneelse.Geauga County Sheriff Dan
McClelland has met withtownship road and firedepartment heads, and agreedthat a stronger-than-normalmessage needs to be posted atthe site, he said.“Violators will be ticketed”
was suggested, Ray said, and theplan is to monitor theintersection to enforce thewarning.Prescott said bridgework has
been delayed a couple of weeksbecause some utility poles hadto be moved.“Our crane work definitely
requires that the wires bemoved before we can relocatethe bridge,” he explained.Prescott also warned that
once the bridge is taken downand an off-site drive is openedfor emergency vehicles, motoristmight try to use that crossing.“We’re trying not to
encumber emergency responsewith gates,” added Ray.Township officials also do
not want local traffic to use thetownship driveway that runfrom Sherman to Auburn, pastthe road department, ball fieldsand town hall as a cut through,Ray said.
People attending ball gamesor events at the town hall cancontinue to use it, he said.Fire Chief Bernie Harchar
suggested the deputy whopatrols Munson be asked tomonitor the construction areamore frequently.“It is starting already. People
are trying to find shortcuts inadvance,” he said, addingpassers-through could cause anaccident because there arechildren and adults usingVetter’s Park.Ray said area drivers are
going to be discouraged fromthat practice and the signs andbarricaded area would beenforced as much as possible.County Engineer Robert
Phillips approached trusteestwo years ago and proposed theculverts be replaced and theroad widened and straightened.The stretch along Auburn
from Sherman to Wilson Mills isamong the top five mostdangerous sections of road inthe county, he said.Phillips added the traffic
count along Auburn hadincreased from about 5,500vehicles per day in the 1980s toabout 7,500 per day in 2010.The county engineer said
replacing the culvert with theconcrete boxes would cost$200,000 to $225,000, wideningAuburn would cost $300,000 to$350,000, and straighteningSherman would cost about$600,000.The box culverts cost about
$1,200 a foot, he added.The county will be footing
the bill for buying and installingthe box structure, moving orremoving the guardrails andwidening Auburn, Phillips said.Sherman is a township road,
so Munson will be responsiblefor straightening it and anyrepaving along the stretchleading to the intersection.The roads will be closed for
weeks, so drivers should plan tofollow detours and allowenough time to do so safely.
year contract at an annualsalary of $110,000.He replaced long-time
superintendent Tony Podojil,who served with the districtfrom 1995 to 2010.“We had 31 applicants and
we identified nine that wewanted to interview,” said WestGeauga Schools Board ofEducation President Bill Beers.“We actually interviewed eight.And from that, we went downto four.”Beers and the rest of the
board brought in the fourremaining candidates for asecond round of interviews.“And we're now in the
process of getting additionalthoughts, impressions and input… doing the due diligence,”Beers said. “We probably won'tmake a decision until the end of(this) week.”The board used the help of
Geauga County EducationalService Center Superintendent
Matt Galemmo to dwindledown the candidates from 31 tonine, Beers said.“He was reviewing the
resumes and applications andalso did some first-roundbackground checks oncandidates he wasn't as familiarwith,” the board president said.“That's how we got to the nine.”In the past, the board used
the Ohio School BoardsAssociation to search for itssuperintendent — as it did inDiringer's case — but decidedto take the reins on the searchthis go-around.“(Galemmo) has not been
involved with any of theinterviews themselves,” Beers.“It's gone well. I think we've allbeen satisfied with the qualityof the applicants. I think theprocess has worked smoothly.”He added, “I don't think
that we have lost out onanything by doing the processthe way we did it.”The board also solicited
input from the community viamail, the school website, acommunity input meeting and
at events such as the annualChesterland Rotary SeniorDinner. Of the feedback gleaned, an
overwhelming amount stressedcommunity involvement, districtTreasurer Michele Tullai hadsaid, adding “integrity,leadership, a business sense,transparency ... to know theculture of the community” wereother popular characteristicsmentioned.“We actually got more
applicants this time than we did2 years ago,” Beers said. “Thatcan be for a whole variety ofreasons, but by doing itourselves, we did not end upwith the small fraction we hadwhen OSBA did it.”As soon as the board has
reached a decision, Beers saidthey will issue a press release.

To The Editor of theChesterland News,The only other Chester clerk
I know of who needed anassistant was Michael Spellman. He needed an assistant
because he was stealing millionsfrom us. What is your excuseKaren? When Karen Austin took
office, she was writing two setsof checks using the same checknumbers. The trustees stoppedthat. During her eight years in
office, Austin never had theminutes up to date and wasalways several months behind. She also omitted any
negative remarks made abouther job performance in theminutes.Did Ron Cotman as a
former trustee force a zoningsecretary who did the minutesto resign in tears? An outside firm was hired to
do minutes. The firmtranscribed every single word.One set of minutes was over 60pages. Wasted tax dollars and
Cotman was to blame. Areplacement could not befound. The zoning secretary washired back.Austin had a falling out with
Trustee Judy Caputo and thenused her position to underminethe work of the trustees andtake sides with the Cotmans,creating chaos. She produced financial
information for the trusteesright before meetings began,giving the trustees no time toreview her work. Does Austin still owe over
$28,000 in back property taxeson her commercial property inChester Township? Austin was an elected
official in charge of finances.That was very worrisome. Did Austin take her
responsibilities seriously? You be the judge. The
minutes were her responsibility,period. She also refused to release
her computer passwords to theAuditor of the State’s office onrequest.

Insurance Institute, there weresix major weather events inOhio through July of last year,triggering 125,000 claims thatcould total as much as $640million in insured losses. That does not include non-
weather related claims or any ofthe storm activity for Augustand September. Disaster related insured
losses in Ohio have increasedby 175 percent when viewed infive-year increments. Ohioans reported $2.4
billion in disaster related lossesfrom 2007 to July of 2011compared to $861 million from2002 to 2006.What does this mean to
you? Homeowner premiums are
likely to increase. However,those increases could bepartially offset by decreasingauto rates.
While these storm-relatedevents impact each insurancecarrier differently, the majorityof companies are reportingrecord losses on homeownersand expect a rise in homeownerrates throughout 2012 into2013. Even with rate increases on
the horizon, Ohio consumerscontinue to enjoy competitiveinsurance pricing in both homeand auto. According to the National
Association of InsuranceCommissioners, Ohio has theseventh lowest average homepremium and the 11th lowestaverage auto premium of the 50states.
