About 400 people sampledfree chili, smoothies, breads andfilled goody bags with pens,magnets, jar openers and otheritems during the second annualcountywide Consumer -Wednesday at the MiddlefieldMarket Pavilion. Sponsored by four local
Chambers of Commerce —Middlefield, Burton, Chester-land and Chardon — the 65vendors included banks, cater-ers, security companies, land-scapers and hair salons. Visitors could receive a free
massage while a clown enter-tained, making balloon cre-ations for all ages. Geauga County Tourism
Council, the county Depart-ment on Aging, the GeaugaCounty Public Library and theGeauga Park District had infor-mational booths. The event was held free of
charge and was meant to makecounty residents aware of the
available local goods and servic-es, according to organizers.“People who are here obvi-
ously like to get out in the com-munity,” said tourism councilDirector Lynda Nemeth. “Thisis a great venue for it becauseit’s huge and there’s plenty ofroom to move around. There
were a lot of people here aheadof time, before we evenopened.”She added, “I think the
crowd is larger than last year’s.”Nemeth was there to pro-
mote upcoming events, includ-ing a document shredding dayon June 1 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
in the east parking lot of theMiddlefield Market, 15848Nauvoo Road. “This will be the first time
for us, but this is part of InfoShred Ohio program to fightthe problem of identity theft,”Nemeth said. “A secure truckwill be there and will shred doc-uments as people watch. Thecost is $5 a box, which coversthe cost. We’re doing this as acommunity service.”Business owners were able
to broadcast descriptions oftheir services and a basket rafflewas held, offering products thatparticipants could win. Prizes included baskets of
local wine and maple products,cases of bottled water, gift cardsand a Kindle Fire. As the afternoon wore on,
the hall became increasinglycolorful, as Swifty the Clown,otherwise known as Alan Stayof Russell Township, createdflower hats, animals and other
fanciful figures by request. “I’ve been doing this for 26
years, 14 full time,” Stay said ashe twisted a green balloon busi-ness logo for one woman. “I do this because my busi-
ness is small and portable, and Ican make them anywhere. Iappear at trade shows like thisone, at corporate functions, atprivate partie, and I am at theRancho de Alezanes in Chester-land every Wednesday night.”Stay made a balloon sword
for Wes Smith, 10, of Chardon,who said he was there to help athis mom’s booth for First LightHealth Care and to have funvisiting the booths. “He made me a Spartan hel-
met because I like Spartans,”Wes saidEvent organizer Kathy

Presented with an architec-tural sketch of the proposedRussell School Arch MemorialGarden May 1, Russell Town-ship Trustees gave an informalnod to the project.The faceplate of the elemen-
tary school, which the townshiphas preserved since the buildingwas torn down in 1983, might beerected as the centerpiece of asmall park. Trustees agreed to allow the
arch and the park to be locatedon the vacant northeast corner ofthe intersection of state routes 87and 306.
Jeanne Schroeder, chair-woman of the Russell TownshipHistorical Society, told trusteesCleveland architect AnthonyPaskevich agreed to design thepark around the arch.Paskevich’s program manager,
Al Klauss, a Russell resident andformer zoning commission mem-ber, attended the May 1 trusteesmeeting.The drawing of the Russell
School arch, standing 14-feet-8-inches tall, and a bird’s-eye viewof the 11-foot-by-12-foot terrace,benches and plantings was hand-ed out. “This drawing is a replication
of what the front of the schoollooked like,” Klauss said, adding
the little park and landscapingwouldn’t have to be done all atonce.Although Paskevich had origi-
nally favored the space betweenthe police and fire stations as alocation for the arch, Klauss saidhe feels the corner owned by thetownship would be a better loca-tion.“I just think it’s going to get
lost (between the stations),” hesaid. “That corner has just beensitting there for years and yearsnot doing anything estheticallyfor Russell.”Schroeder said the corner
“doesn’t have much going on withit.”
Trustees OK School Arch Project

Chester Township Trusteesare facing the same problemmany households experience —what to do with piles of boxesfilled to the brim with outdatedfiles and records, and no morespace to put anything. Trustees differ about how to
tackle the problem, with onegoing through boxes of files andweeding out materials that areno longer needed, and anotherquestioning the process. “We’re out of space every-
where,” Trustee Judy Caputo saidlast Thursday,after fellowTrustee KenRadtke ques-tioned whythree discus-sion items hehad requestedhad been leftoff the agenda.
Radtke asked how therecords review process wascoming along.“We agreed on our records
retention policy in January orFebruary and it’s been movingforward a long time,” FiscalOfficer Mike Stark told him. “I guess I should inform you,
I’ve done 28 boxes so far,”Caputo said. “Payroll recordsand personnel files are hugefiles. Things that are going totake time have been set aside.
But 1978 cor-respondencesrecommend-ing we lookinto purchas-ing some eq-uipment andpieces of fly-ers saying youcan buy thissnowplow —those are all being boxed up.” Caputo said the process of
sorting, destroying or retainingpublic records is dictated by law. “That’s news to me,” Radtke
said. “Are you just going in andlooking?”He asked Caputo to notify
him when she planned to workon the sorting process again. “I’m not sending out an
email; I don’t have time,”Caputo said. “Twenty-eightboxes have been inventoriedand signed by me.”She added nothing is going
out of the building withoutbeing signed off by the fiscalofficer. “That’s all I needed to
know,” Radtke told her. Trustee Chairman Mike
Joyce said the township willstore some records through IronMountain, a records storagecompany used by many privatecompanies and governmententities.

“It would preserve that cornerfrom having anything happen toit,” he said.Trustee Jim Dickinson said
when the township bought thesmall parcel from BP Corpor-ation, the only covenant was thatit not become an active park. Nothing that has been pro-
posed will violate the terms of thepurchase and it will be an appro-priate place for the arch.“It’s part of Russell history,”
he said.When the faceplate of the
school was taken down, the manwho did the work marked eachpiece with the idea of reconstruct-ing it somewhere, Schroeder said. He marked the blocks, which
have been stored outside, withchalk, and perhaps he can be con-vinced to help recreate it, she said. “I hope he has a good memo-
ry,” Schroeder said.A mason has estimated the
reconstruction will cost more than$30,000, Klauss said. However, Schroeder said she
hopes volunteers and donationswill bring that figure down. Someone suggested people
being able to buy or donate thebricks making up the terrace withinscriptions on them, which willprovide posterity and funding toerect the arch and build the park.Before BP sold the corner to
the township, the companyremoved that tank, soil and sub-soil 14 feet deep, said Jack
Gallagher, maintenance superin-tendent. “The bad stuff they took with
them,” he said, adding, however,the material they used to fill thehole was of questionable quality. Before pouring footers for the
structure, which would be about20 feet wide, according to thesketch, the ground would have tobe properly packed. Building on disturbed soil
would risk the arch tilting overthe years, he said.Dickinson said the corner is
used now as overflow parking forthe township offices and askedhow much parking would beavailable if the project comes tofruition.Klauss recommended the
township should have the parcelsurveyed to determine how muchspace would remain available forparking.Funding is also an issue,
Dickinson said. The trustees, in the “ugly
budget cycle” now, aren’t able topromise money for the project, hesaid.Schroeder said she wasn’t ask-
ing trustees for money, but hergroup wants to start raising fundsfor the project and felt theyshould have the okay of thetrustees before getting started.“It was a promise made when
they took the school down,”Trustee Jim Mueller said, addinghe’s in favor of the project.“Then it’s the sense of the
board that you may proceed withthe planning of the Russell Schoolarch,” Dickinson told Schroeder.
Joyce said the company willpick up material twice each yearat a cost of about $480 per year. Radtke had also questioned
why other issues he had askedto be placed on the agendawere not there. “They were on the draft agen-
da and were since removed,”Radtke said, asking if Joyceinstructed the administrative assis-tant to remove them and why.“I did,” Joyce replied.He said Radtke’s issue
regarding decorative bannerswas going to be discussed by theChesterland Chamber ofCommerce that night and hebelieved it would be prematureto discuss ths issue until afterthe chamber held their meeting. “They didn’t mention they
were meeting tonight,” Radtkesaid.
Joyce said the banners arenot the township’s, they belongto the chamber. “We’d like to keep it out of
the political arena,” he said.Radke said he would have
appreciated hearing about thechange.“It’s all new to me,” he said. Another topic Radtke had
wanted trustees to address wasa community survey.“I’d like to have that conver-
sation again,” he said, proposingto work with civic groups todraft a survey they would pres-ent to trustees for their ap-proval. Caputo said trustees already
had too many large projects inthe works that are taking a lotof time and attention at themoment. “We have a lot of full-time
issues on our plate right now,”Caputo told him. “The last sur-vey we did was a joint venturewith the school district and
Russell, maybe through KentState. That was ten years or soago and it cost us over $10,000to do that survey even backthen, and that was one-third ofthe cost.”In other business, trustees
appointed Brett Mancino to theWest Geauga Community JointRecreational District as one ofthe township’s three appointeesfor a three-year term thatexpires in 2016. Caputo said Mancino had
been the lone applicant for theunpaid, volunteer position. In answer to a resident’s
question, trustees admitted theydid not know Mancino and hadnot interviewed him. “We did get his resume and
he seemed highly qualified,”Joyce said. “He was the onlyresident who came forward.” Caputo added, “I called him
and asked him if he was stillinterested.”

decision to move the venuefrom last year’s location, atKent state Geauga, to the hugeauction barn made it easier forbooths to set up in one largelocation, with lots of room forvisitors to walk from booth tobooth. “I’m very pleased with the
crowd,” she said, estimating itto be 350 to 400 people. “Everyone’s very happy that
we’re so open and everyoneseems very engaged and inter-ested in the local products andservices,” she said. “This is theperfect venue, although it prob-ably would be better if it wasmore centrally located in thecounty, but based on what peo-ple are saying, this was spot on.”

Let’s Talk Real EstateBy Lisa Thoreson
If someone asked how the realestate market is doing, whatwould you say? Most people still think it is bad
or just not moving very quickly.One lady, when she found out Iwas a real estate agent, actuallysaid, “I’m so sorry for you dear.” When I’m asked about the
market, I reply, “Awesome.” It has been a great spring mar-
ket with inventory going out asquickly as it comes in. We have alist of specific homes buyers wantand we just can’t find. New construction is taking off
too. We have a builder who hasmore houses to put up than wecan find land for him to build on. Buyers are out looking for
homes all the time and in manydifferent ways. With technology the way it is,
they are set up on automaticsearch engines, they have smartphones that alert them as soon asa home matching their needs hasbeen found and since buyers donot pay a commission, they loveworking with real estate agents sothey have professionals workingfor them and protecting their bestinterest.Buyers are well informed
these days and sellers need to bealso.Sellers need to know what
their house is truly worth if it’sgoing to sell and appraise. If a house doesn’t appraise, it
really doesn’t matter what a buyerwill pay if the lender won’t lendthem the money to buy it. There are a few different ways
to get a fair market value, one ofthe best is a Competitive MarketAnalysis. A CMA researches all the
sales, expireds, pending sales. Itlooks at the condition, location,square footage and tax valuation.It looks at how the house com-
pares with other houses within acertain distance and whatimprovements have been made orneed to be made.Sellers should also be aware of
the hang-ups that can keep ahouse from closing once a buyerhas been found. Such as not getting financing,
something found in a homeinspection or something that hasturned up on a title search.Sellers need to be familiar
with the new Ohio ResidentialDisclosure Forms every home
owner needs to fill out before sell-ing their home. Another way sellers can pro-
tect themselves is with a HomeWarranty on their houses. Evenwhile their home is on the market,the seller is also protected if cer-tain items break down.Whether a buyer or seller,
people should ask the right ques-tions, so their interests are protect-ed. Hire the right person or per-
sons to help achieve goals. Buyingand selling a house can be a stress-ful time if a person doesn’t haveall the T’s crossed and I’s dotted. Ask questions and feel confi-
dent the right strategy is in place.Here in the West Geauga mar-
ket, we have many amenities thatmake us a desirable community tolive in. We also have a few challenges,
like septic systems, that needattention in the beginning of theprocess, not at the end, when asale could then fall apart. Whatever a person’s reasons
for buying or selling, I’m sure thedesire is to have a smooth transac-tion, where buyers and sellers feelthey have the best deal for them,and didn’t over pay or under sell.Send us questions or give us a
call, we will be happy to give ourexpert opinion. Twenty five yearsin real estate is what we basethose opinions on and we wouldbe eager to listen to and help how-ever we can.Dan and Lisa Thoreson,
