Hemlock Point Roadresidents applauded RussellTownship Trustees lastWednesday when the boardannounced one more step hasbeen taken for the township toreclaim responsibility for thescenic country road.

Trustees said there are moresteps to be taken and possiblyone more minefield to crossbefore the saga comes to asatisfactory ending.

“We’re not out of the woods,yet,” said Trustee Jim Dickinson.

Residents rose up in armsearly this spring when crewsstarted cutting trees in theHemlock Point right-of-way inpreparation for widening theroad and berm.

They petitioned trustees enmasse to take back responsibilityfor the road, which the countyengineer claimed was toonarrow to be safe for traffic.

Trustees spoke with thecounty about that possibilityand, after several meetings withresidents and Geauga CountyEngineer Robert L. Phillips,

made the request to the countycommissioners.

Wednesday, Dickinson reada letter dated May 30 fromPhillips to the Geauga CountyCommissioners in which herecounted the history ofHemlock Point from June 2009.

At that time, trustees askedthe county to take over the road,which was in poor condition.

The township, in turn,agreed to take over recentlyrepaved Music Street.

County commissionersagreed to the trade in September,followed by a complete reviewof the county highway system.

Russell Township cededmaintenance responsibility forHemlock Point and Caves roadsofficially in 2011. The countyroad map reflecting thosechanges was completed inDecember 2011, Phillips said.

“It now appears that afterthree years of valid evaluationof the highway system ofGeauga County, the RussellTownship Trustees have decidedto pass their power of governingto a small group of residents,while ignoring the public traffic

traveling between Chagrin Fallsand Russell Township,” Phillipswrote, adding the commissionerswill now have to create a newsystem and have it approved bythe director of the OhioDepartment of Transportation.

“I believe Hemlock PointRoad, along with Hemlock

Road, is a valid integral part ofour county highway system. Ifthe board is possiblyconsidering addressing RussellTownship’s request without atotal review of the countyhighway system, I suggestHemlock Road go withHemlock Point Road to the

township and Russell Roadbecome a county road,” theengineer wrote. “This will stillprovide a link between thecenter of Russell on state Route87 and Chagrin Falls Village.”

Improving hiking trailsthrough 37 acres of woodsowned by Russell Townshipseems like a simple task — onthe surface.

But there are a variety offactors that may not see theproposed project to fruition.

Bernard Mandel, a memberof the West Geauga CommunityJoint Recreation Districtcommittee, presented a projectto Russell Township Trusteeslast Wednesday proposing the37 acres to the west of TheCommons on Chillicothe Roadwould be better used if moresuitable trails could beestablished through the trees.

The Commons, about 40acres owned by the county andleased by the township, is thesite of baseball and soccerfields, a pavilion and a walkingtrail along the Chagrin River.

About a year ago, Mandelsaid West Geauga Schoolsasked the recreation district if itwould be possible to have trailson the township’s 37 acresacross the river, so the crosscountry team would haveanother place to run and

teachers could use the parcelfor educational purposes.

However, as the projectwould include construction of abridge over the river and the 37-acre parcel has an easement onit to the Western ReserveConservation District, there area number of hurdles in the way,he said.

Mandel said the deedrestriction on the property isbroad and vague and probablywon’t cause any problem inestablishing trails.

The passive park zoning ofthe property doesn’t prohibitthe uses in the proposal, he said.

The easement with theWRLC is more restrictive, butconversations with conservancyrepresentatives have led him tobelieve the organization mightassist in the project, Mandelsaid.

The easement allowsunpaved trails for hiking,snowshoeing, horseback ridingand cross country skiing, headded.

“I believe our intended usesfit into those restrictions,”Mandel said, adding the WRLCmight even assist in raisingfunds to help pay for the

$40,000 trail development.The bridge might be a

sticking point, since it is astructure, but it would only haveto support foot traffic, Mandelsaid.

The township has access tothe property off of West RiverRoad. A drive for emergencyvehicles could be cleared to thetownship acreage, Trustee JimMueller said.

Resident Walter Waetjen,who has been working withMandel on the project, said thelocation for the bridge is still inquestion.

At the northeast corner ofthe property, it may be possibleto have both bridge abutmentson The Commons parcel, not inthe WRLC easement, trusteessaid.

Trustee Jim Dickinson saidresidents on West River Roadwho have been used to havingthe acreage as an extension oftheir yards might have concernsabout the parcel seeing moreuse.

Mandel said the trails couldbe designed to provide asubstantial buffer of woods

Chester Township Trusteestook a big step Monday towardalleviating flooding problemsthat have plagued residents onMarilyn Drive for nearly half acentury.

They unanimously agreedduring a special early morningmeeting to enter into anagreement to purchase thesingle-family home of Zlatkoand Ann Grahovac at 13103Marilyn Drive for $140,000.

The property is expected totransfer to the township on June29, contingent upon the GeaugaCounty Prosecutor’s Office’sreview and approval of thepurchase agreement.

“I thank you for being ableto do this and get this done in atimely fashion,” Trustee JudyCaputo told real estate brokerVic Cizek of Realty Net.

Caputo added she has beenworking toward a solution tothe flooding problem onMarilyn Drive for more than sixand a half years.

When she was running fortrustee seven years ago, Caputosaid she saw a “kid in a kayakpaddling down a road.”

Then, two years ago, shewitnessed water reach as high asthe top of residents’ mailboxes.

“That was incredible,” Cizekadded, referring to a MemorialDay storm in 2010.

“I think we’re moving in theright direction to take care ofone of the major issues inChester Township,” Caputosaid. “It’s one step in a possiblephase, but at least it’s a step inthe right direction, at least toreduce the water flow as it’scoming down (from SouthWoodside Drive) and hopefullyalleviate the major flooding andthe road deterioration. It’ssomething that’s been long, longoverdue.”

South Woodside wassupposed to be a through street,but residents were able to makeit a cul-de-sac drive, sheexplained.

At the end of the cul-de-sacis a parcel of land that twohomeowners on either side ofthe cul-de-sac own. This parcelis referred to as a “retentionbasin.”

For years, heavy rains haveflowed from Mayfield Road and

JOHN KARLOVEC/CNGeauga County Engineer Robert Phillips has recommended the county take over maintenance of Russell Road,which would provide a link between the center of Russell on Route 87 and the Village of Chagrin Falls.

breakdown of the two systems.On June 5, trustees received

a letter from Geauga CountyAdministrator David Lairsaying the commissioners areprepared to make aredetermination on the matter

of maintenance responsibilityfor Hemlock Point and otherroads in the area.

He asked trustees to reviewthe information they submittedto the county, agree in publicsession to their new assessmentand resubmit it to the county.

The commissioners will thenreconsider modifications to thecounty highway system.

“Based on this resubmissionof documentation from thetownship and following reviewby this office, the commissionerswill order the county engineerto prepare a new highway mapwhich would reflect the returnof Hemlock Point Road totownship responsibility,” Lairwrote. “The anticipated endresult of this process is thatRussell Township will beresponsible for Hemlock PointRoad, Hemlock Road and thesection of Music Street west ofstate Route 306, with the countyassuming responsibility forRussell Road, which runsbetween Route 87 and theChagrin Falls Village line.”

Total mileage following thechanges will give the county3.975 miles including Russelland Caves roads and thetownship will have 3.519 miles— a trade to the county ofabout half a mile compared tothe 2008 figures.

Trustee Jim Mueller said hewould draft the letter to thecounty commissioners.

“It was the county commi-ssioners who weighed in heavilyon your behalf,” he told thecrowd.

The county engineer wantssingle control of a road fromend to end, Mueller said, addingRussell Road will give him that.

“They (the county) want tocontrol the major arteries,”Dickinson said.

This is partly because itmakes snowplowing moreefficient if the trucks don’t haveto turn around, he added.

Russell Road has beenrepaved recently and is widerthan Hemlock Point, so thecounty probably won’t have todo anything to it, Dickinsonsaid.

“We’re not out ofthe woods, yet.” – Trustee Jim Dickinson

JOHN KARLOVEC/CNGeauga County Commissioners have told Russell trustees they would be willing to give Hemlock Point Road backto the township in exchange for Russell Road.

state Route 306, down throughSouth Woodside, through theretention basin and flooded thehomes on Marilyn Drive,Caputo said.

“It’s a bunch of differentareas that Marilyn is taking thehit on,” she added.

Caputo said the street floodsevery time it rains, “it just alldepends on how badly.”

Trustee Mike Joyce said 18of the roughly 40 homes onMarilyn Drive haveexperienced flooding at thesame time.

Trustees have been workingwith the Geauga CountyEngineer’s Office, ChagrinRiver Watershed Partners andthe Geauga Soil and WaterConservation District to fashiona remedy for years.

Construction of retention

basins behind the homes wouldnot “help the situation,” Caputosaid, adding nor would makingMarilyn Drive a through road,enlarging the South WoodsideDrive retention basin orinstalling larger sewer pipes.

“(It would be) very costlyand would not necessarilyaddress it properly,” she said.

The development was builton a creek bed, so a naturalwater flow already existed,Caputo explained.

“The least expensive waywould have been for one ofthose two houses that are rightthere with those big drains … totake one of those and at least beable to put in a swale,” Caputosaid, referring to Grahovacs’home and that of theirneighbor.

Trustee Ken Radtke Jr. saidresidents have told him thewater drains fairly quickly.

Part of the problem,however, is the water comingdown from South Woodsideflows at almost a 90-degreeangle between two pipes,causing a “hydraulic backup.”

Construction of a swale onthe property — and a taperingof the two pipes — would direct

water behind the homes andthrough a huge pipe underCedar Road, eventuallydraining into a marsh area.

Joyce said they have beentold the march could handle theincreased volume of waterwithout causing a floodingproblem elsewhere.

“So we’re not transferringthe problem to someplace else,according to our engineers,” hesaid. “And that was critical tous.”

The board chairman alsoexplained it took trusteeslonger to come up with aremedy because they did notintend to take anything byeminent domain.

“We have three (areas thatflood in the township) and thatis by far the worst, and that isthe one that actually goes intopeople’s houses,” he said. “Theothers affect the roads, but thisactually impacts where theylive; it enters their houses.”

The Grahovacs, who boughtthe home in 1997 for $127,000,listed their 1,504 square foothome on 1 acre last Septemberfor $179,000.

Cizek said he did not knowif the Grahovacs were moving

because of the floodingproblem or had any other offerson their home.

It is valued at $144,100,according to the GeaugaCounty Auditor’s Office.

Trustees intend to announcetheir purchase of theGrahovacs’ home at Thursday’smeeting.

The county engineer’s officewill then design the swale,Caputo said, adding if the

design comes in at under$50,000, the work would notneed to be bid.

Trustees are also expected todiscuss Thursday allowing thetownship police and firedepartments to use the homefor training purposes, but notburning.

Thursday’s trustees meetingwill begin at 6:30 p.m. and beheld in the Fire-Rescue Stationat 8552 Parkside Drive.

He recommended pollingRussell Road residents as totheir feelings about the trade.

“If they have strongobjections, I’d rather hear fromthem sooner than later,” he said.

The other issue is thatHemlock Point will have to goto the end of the line for thetownship’s repaving plans.

That work will be designedand bid out by the countyengineer, trustees said, adding ifall the paperwork goes asexpected, the township willhave control over the project,such as width and ditch size.

“We have the veto,” Muellersaid.

between the back property linesof the homes and the trails.

Construction of a bridge inthe flood zone of the ChagrinRiver would require a study byand approval from the ArmyCorps of Engineers, Dickinsonsaid.

Also, the area is notsupposed to be used for sportsrecreation, which might rule outcross country running, he said.

Waetjen said the acreagemay be too small for the crosscountry team to use since theygenerally need 2.3 miles forpractice.

He and Mandel were hopingfor the trustees to approve the

start of a feasibility study of theproject.

Trustees asked Mandel toask the WRLC to send thetownship a letter regarding theconservancy’s position on theproposal.

Dickinson said he would bein favor of the project.

The Commons is a delightfulpark, he said, adding as long asthe adjoining acreage couldremain passive and be of someuse, it would seem to be a goodidea.

But the West River Roadresidents might not feel thesame way.

“Over the years, people seeopen property as theirs,” hesaid. “Nobody likes surprises.We need to communicate earlyand often.”

Ohio Chautauqua Brings Voicesof Past Music to Burton in July

Traditional, Folk Musicians JoinOhio Chautauqua Line-Up

Staff Report

If you’ve ever wanted to askJohnny Appleseed a question orperhaps Iroquois Chief JohnLogan, you’ll have your chancethis July.

Geauga County residents andvisitors will be able to chat withthese and three other importantfigures from Ohio’s history as the2012 Ohio Chautauqua passesthrough Burton for a weeklongfestival of culture and education.

Geauga County HistoricalSociety’s Century VillageMuseum was selected as one ofonly five sites in the state to hostthe traveling tent show — whichcombines education, drama andentertainment to focus on thetime “When Ohio was theWestern Frontier.”

The 2012 Ohio Chautauqua,sponsored and presented by theOhio Humanities Council, is arevival of that sort of old-fashioned community gatheringand museum curator ElizabethWantz said a buzz is buildingabout its arrival in Burton.

“Individuals andorganizations throughoutGeauga County have beenworking to prepare for this fornearly a year,” Wantz said. “Thisis a distinguished event, and thereis a lot of competition to host it.We are honored to be among thefew sites chosen.”

The five-day event will runfrom Tuesday, July 3 throughSaturday, July 7.

Each evening, under a bigtent erected on the CenturyVillage Museum grounds, fivehumanities scholars will assumethe costume and personality ofthe historical figures — pioneernaturalist Johnny Appleseed;Iroquois leader Chief Logan;frontier aristocrat MargaretBlennerhassett; York, a Lewisand Clark Expedition member;and Oliver Hazard Perry, hero ofthe Battle of Lake Erie.

During the eveningperformances, the scholars willengage the audience in first-person characterizations,

interacting and revealing the livesand legacies of these individuals,who encountered Ohio in itsinfancy and helped shape thestate into what it is today,according to the historical society.

Throughout the week, thesesame scholars will come out ofcharacter to present 10 additionaldaytime programs on varyingtopics at five other venuesaround the county, Wantz said.

Five of the programs will beaimed at younger audiences andfive will be geared toward adults,according to the historical society.

The venues for the daytimelectures and workshops includethe Geauga Park District’s TheWest Woods Nature Center;Geauga County Public Library’sChardon library, Geauga Westand Middlefield libraries; andKent State University at Geaugacampus.

Generations ago, news that atraveling tent Chautauqua wascoming to town was cause forexcitement and celebration,Wantz said.

It meant neighbors would begetting together for a fewsummer evenings to sit outsideunder the shade of a tree — or atent — and enjoy theentertainment provided bytraveling performers, she said.

The 2012 Ohio Chautauqua-Geauga is supported throughdonations from The GeaugaCounty Library Foundations, thetrustees of Geauga Park DistrictFoundation, Geauga CountyRotaries, Great Lakes Cheese,Kent State University at Geauga,Middlefield Bank, PrestonChevrolet, The William T. &Margaret R. Clark CharitableFoundations and Xanterra Parksand Resorts-Punderson, Wantzsaid.

Thank YouFour and half years ago my

wife and I were looking for apreschool for our daughter.

A close personal friendsuggested participating in theinclusion program atMetzenbaum Center in ChesterTownship.

It was easily the bestdecision we have made for ourchildren’s' education so far. Theteachers became part of ourfamily or we became part oftheirs.

Last year, the schoolchanged hands and all theteachers we knew werereleased. Regrettably, thetransition wasn't handled verywell and many parents wereupset.

Regardless of the lack ofprofessionalism displayed bythe administration, what wasobvious was the caliber of thenew teachers coming in.

One aspect of special needsteachers that has been a

constant at facilities likeMetzenbaum is the teachers arejust that — special.

I don't know how to thankthe staff at Metzenbaum Schoolfor the experience you haveprovided for our children.

Both of our kids weretypical students who went toschool with kids that may ormay not have had special needs,i.e. the Inclusion Program.

The facility is wonderful andthe learning environment isexcellent. Our teachers wereattentive, caring and allowedour children to thrive. There aretoo many people to thank. But Ihope you know who you are.

Thank you so much for thehead start you have providedour kids. And thank you to theresidents of Geauga County forsupporting these programs.

Your dollars are being put togood use. Take Care and GodBless.
