Message from the Mayor
Another Sharonville summer has come to a close. Festivals of Sharonville threw
a grand “party with a purpose” raising thousands of dollars for local non-profit
organizations. The Sharonville Cultural Arts Center filled their theatre with
activities for the whole family. Our Parks & Recreation Department made sure you
had a cool pool to dip into on a hot summer day. Our new Gower Park shelters
welcomed residents and guests for their summertime picnics and celebrations. The
Sharonville Youth Organization filled our baseball and softball fields with young
people learning the game. Road crews surrounded Sharonville replacing and
repairing curbs, sidewalks and streets. Police and fire personnel insured your safety
while enjoying community events like St. Michael’s annual community festival,
Fourth-on-the-Loop and Touch-a-Truck. Our new city partner, Hamilton County
Public Health, inspected all our city’s outdoor pools and made sure Sharonville
food handlers (from the temporary to permanent) followed food safety procedures. I hope that you have found these
and the many other services and opportunities your city, the city’s partners, businesses and non-profit groups provide
exceeded your expectations.
The start of a new season ushers in a whole new set of activity for Sharonville. This Hometown Guide is produced to
share with you those many available opportunities for you, your families and your businesses. Festivals of Sharonville
is branching out to offer a new event this fall at the Community Center’s Upper Grove. Kemper Field is filling up with
eager kids kicking soccer balls. As our schools fill with children, Sharonville’s R(esident) A(ssistance) I(ntervention)
N(urse) Jennifer Ely will be assisting with school nurse’s needs and local school health screenings. Hamilton County
Public Health will be in town to provide flu shot clinics. People from across the region will be flooding our Convention
Center, hotels and restaurants for their fall get-togethers. Candidates will be popping up with signs and leaflets to seek
your support at the polling booths set up throughout the City in early November. There should be something in these
next few pages to peek your interest and/or information to help you know your City better. I invite you to share your
thoughts with me or any of your elected officials or City employees. I Sharonville isn’t just a slogan for a t-shirt. It is
something the city’s employees, elected officials and I want you to feel about this community. Best wishes to you for a
fantastic fall here in the City of Sharonville.

our community and who do not typically seek or receive recognition for their efforts.

Hamilton County or Butler County. The City of Sharonville
does not receive property tax dollars from city residents
or businesses, and is proud that a municipal property tax
has not been levied in over 30 years.
For further information on the collection and payment of
property taxes, please contact either the Hamilton County
Auditor’s office at (513) 946-4000 or the Butler County
Auditor’s office at (513) 887-3154. Links to these offices are
available on the Sharonville website.

PUBLIC WORKS
Reminders
The City’s Truck Loan Program for 2015 ends on October 30th. This
program helps residents keep their property clean and gives them
the ability to dispose of unwanted items from their property. Please
call 563-1177 for information or to reserve a truck. There is a nominal
fee for the use of the truck.
Curbside Brush and Special Pickup is a year round program unless
it is snowing and we are treating the roads. Residents must call the
Public Works office at 563-1177 before noon on Friday to have their
name put on a list in order to have their items picked up the following
week. Have the materials out for removal on Sunday evening of the
requested service week. Public Works will come to your address one
day of the service week to remove the materials. Twigs cannot be
picked up; they are yard waste and must be disposed of with your
regular trash collection.
Disposal of refrigerators, freezers and other appliances that
contain chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) refrigerants must have the
CFC removed from the appliance by a Certified Technician and have
documentation attached to the appliance verifying that the CFC has
been safely removed. Rumpke will then pick up the appliance on your
normal trash pickup day.
Disposal of computers, televisions, fluorescent bulbs and
hazardous waste cannot be placed at the curb for Rumpke trash
collection. The Hamilton County and Butler County Recycling and
Solid Waste Districts can help you with disposal of electronic and
hazardous waste items for homeowners ONLY. Fluorescent bulbs
can be taken to hardware stores (Home Depot, Lowe’s, Menard’s) for
proper disposal. For more information on Recycling and the disposing
of Computers, Televisions and Hazardous Waste Materials:
Hamilton County residents:
Call 513-946-7766 or visit: hamiltoncountyrecycles.org
Butler County residents:
Call 513-887-3653 or visit: butlercountyrecycles.org
Fall Season
There is no leaf pick up program in the City of Sharonville – raking
leaves into the street gutters is not permitted.
Raking leaves into the gutter will cause catch basins to back up and
flood streets. Please rake and bag leaves for pick up and disposal
with Rumpke on your trash days. (Remember Rumpke has a 10 item
limit)
If you have a storm culvert that runs along your property line or
under your driveway, please remember that it is the homeowner’s
responsibility to keep these culverts and the inlets clear of leaves and
debris. Clogged culverts affect drainage upstream and flooding on
roadways and surrounding areas.
Winter Season
Winter snow and ice will be here soon. There are a few guidelines
that residents can follow that will help our department maintain our
roads in the best condition possible:
• During a snowstorm, please do NOT park vehicles on the street,
if possible.
• The Public Works crew has very limited time to remove the
snow in a major snowstorm and cars parked on the street create
additional obstacles and restrict visibility. Parking your vehicle
in your driveway allows for a more complete clearing of your
street. Wherever practical, we will attempt to keep the snow
build-up to a minimum. Unfortunately, due to limitations of time
and manpower, we will not be able to remove plowed snow from
in front of driveways. Ultimately, this is the responsibility of the
homeowner. Please shovel snow responsibly, by not shoveling
your snow into the roadway.
• Older residents and those with health problems are reminded
to avoid the extreme physical activity associated with shoveling
snow.
• Stay at least two car lengths behind a snow plow for every 10
mph you are traveling. Never cut in between a caravan of plows
clearing a road.
• Beware of “black ice” (roads that look wet but actually are glazed
with ice). Ramps and bridges freeze first.
As a result of winter snow, ice and salt comes the inevitable
appearance of potholes and other unsafe conditions. Please notify
Public Works of any curb, street, sidewalk or storm drainage problems
in the City. The Public Works Department will attempt to correct the
safety problems in a timely manner.
Golden View Acres
Golden View Acres is a Senior Citizen Retirement Village. This
52 unit apartment complex is located on Greensfelder Lane off
Thornview Drive.
In order to be eligible for tenancy, a person must be at least 57 years
of age and a Sharonville resident for at least one year; or be a parent,
grandparent, brother or sister of a Sharonville resident who has
resided in the City for one year.
Golden View Acres has both first and second floor units and one and
two bedroom apartments. Each apartment has an equipped kitchen
with stove and refrigerator, gas heat, hot water, and air conditioning.
Tenants pay their own utilities except water. There are coin operated
laundry facilities in each of the three buildings. When renting an
apartment an initial security deposit equaling one month’s rent is
required. After signing the lease, THE RENT WILL NOT BE RAISED
unless an additional tenant occupies the same apartment or the
current tenant moves to another apartment in the complex. At that
time, a new rental agreement is required to be signed at the current
rate.
To be placed on a WAITING LIST to rent an apartment, written
application must be made and a $50 fee deposited. This fee is
refundable when you rent an apartment or request, in writing, to be
removed from the Waiting List.

POLICE DEPARTMENT
Crime Mapping - RAIDS Online
Last summer, the Sharonville Police Department introduced an online crime mapping program to visualize crime data for the
public in an ongoing effort to strengthen community and law enforcement ties. We have received a lot of positive feedback
and will continue with this transparency; however, we have changed service providers and are now using BAIR Analytics
RAIDS Online. Although crime mapping programs are free for the public to use, the optional law enforcement analytical function
requires the police department to pay an annual fee. Like any good consumer, we are constantly looking for the best option that
fits our needs and budget.
Crime analysis works best with data from surrounding communities. We decided to switch to BAIR Analytics RAIDS Online
because it is a regional crime analysis and data sharing program allowing us to use information from neighboring communities
to determine crime series and patterns, which we could not do with the previous service provider. RAIDS Online is the crime
mapping component that allows the public to view reported criminal activity.
For those who are familiar with our previous crime mapping program, RAIDS Online is very similar to use. For those who are not
familiar, it’s really very simple. The map can be viewed from the city’s website at www.sharonville.org , www.raidsonline.com or
download the RAIDS Online app for your smart phone or tablet. You can sign up to receive crime alerts to your email by clicking
the “sign up for crime alerts” button; you determine how often and when you receive the alerts. If you have questions on how
to use the map, there is a help button that provides tutorials for all the different features. If you have any questions about the
program, contact Officer Cheryl Price at 513.563.1147 or [email protected].
Catalytic Converter Theft
All vehicles manufactured after 1974 must have a catalytic converter as part of the exhaust system. It is an emissions-control
device that contains precious metals that act as catalysts. The catalytic converter renders toxic gases into less harmful emissions.
Catalytic converters, along with copper and other metals, continue to be a hot commodity for thieves. Catalytic converter theft
has become popular because of their value, relative ease to steal, and their lack of identifying markings. The lack of identification
makes it difficult to identify victims and to successfully apprehend and prosecute criminals.
Thieves look for vehicles parked for prolonged periods of time in large lots, such as shopping centers, mass transit commuter
lots or company parking lots. Converter thefts can also occur in your driveway or on the street in front of your house. Trucks,
pick-ups and SUVs are particularly vulnerable to catalytic converter theft because thieves can slide underneath without having
to jack up the vehicle to gain access to the converter. With just a few cuts of a battery-powered saw, the converter can be stolen
in less than a minute.
Please report any suspicious activity you may observe. These thefts occur at all hours of the day and any day of the week.
Here are some tips to help prevent catalytic converter theft:
•
Always park in well-lit areas;
•
At shopping centers and other similar parking lots, park close to the entrance
of the building or near the access road where there’s a lot of traffic;
Engrave your license plate number on the converter to make it traceable;
•
•
Check out different types of catalytic converter theft deterrent systems
at your local auto parts store, online or your local muffler shop.

Ohio’s School Bus Law
It’s that time of year when the big yellow school buses are back on the road. School
buses and motorists have been a part of the morning and afternoon landscape for
five generations. School buses have been around since 1915; and since then,
there has been an uneasy co-existence between the school bus and the motorist.
For some, that uneasy co-existence is a result of not knowing when to stop for a
school bus or when it is ok to continue past. Hopefully the information below will
help clarify the Ohio school bus law to create a more peaceful co-existence and
keep our school aged children safer!
Scenario 1 – You are traveling on a two- or three-lane road
•
Approaching the bus from the rear: When you see flashing red or
amber warning lights, you are not permitted to pass the school bus and should be
prepared to stop. Stop behind the school bus when the school bus stops and the stop arm is extended. Stop no closer than 10
feet from the rear of the bus, and remain stopped until the stop arm is retracted and school bus starts moving again. Proceed
with caution.
•
Meeting the bus from the front: When you see amber warning lights flashing you must slow your vehicle and be
prepared to stop when the lights turn red. Stop no closer than 10 feet in front of the school bus when the school bus stops and
its stop arm is extended. Remain stopped until the stop arm is retracted. Proceed with caution.
Scenario 2 – You are traveling on a road with two or more lanes in each direction
•
Approaching the bus from the rear: When approaching from the rear, the rules are the same as for a two- or threelane road. When you see flashing red or amber warning lights, you are not permitted to pass the school bus and should be
prepared to stop. Stop behind the school bus when the school bus stops and its stop arm is extended. Stop no closer than 10
feet from the rear of the bus, and remain stopped until the stop arm is retracted and school bus starts moving again. Proceed
with caution.
•
Meeting the bus from the front: When meeting the bus in one of the opposite two lanes (or more), you do not need to
stop, even if the bus has stopped with lights flashing and stop arm out. The bus is not permitted to load or unload children who
must cross this type of roadway, unless there are official traffic control devices or law enforcement present. This is the only time
you may pass a school bus that is stopped and has its stop arm extended.

FIRE DEPARTMENT
National Fire Prevention Week
Keep your family safe with a working smoke alarm in every bedroom. - Did you know that roughly half of home fire
deaths result from fires reported between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m., when most people are asleep?
Smoke alarms save lives. If there is a fire in your home, smoke spreads fast and you need smoke alarms to give you time
to get out. In fact, having a working smoke alarm cuts the chances of dying in a reported fire in half!
Fire Department Open Houses
The Sharonville Fire Department is excited to be a part of National Fire Prevention Week from October 4th through10th.
In support and awareness of this important week, the Sharonville Fire Department will be hosting Open Houses again
this year for everyone in Sharonville and their families. We hope that you can join us for a great event on one of the
following evenings:
Monday, October 5th at Station 88 (located at 7150 Fields-Ertel Road) from 6:00pm to 8:00pm.
Wednesday, October 7th at Station 87 (located at Reading Road & Cornell Road) from 6:00pm to 8:00pm.
Friday, October 9th at Station 86 (located at 11637 Chester Road) from 6:00pm to 8:00pm
Please feel free to contact the SFD Headquarters if you have any questions at 563-0252.

Mammograms on the Go are
Coming to Sharonville!
Getting your mammogram just got easier. October

mammography coach from Premier Health and Atrium
Medical Center will be in Sharonville. The Sharonville Fire
Department is excited to work with Premier Health to bring
the Mobile Screening Mammogram Coach to the residents

the last 12 months, here’s your chance. You’ll experience the same quality, technology, and comfort that’s available
at Premier Health’s breast center. Images are reviewed by board-certified radiologists from Atrium Medical Center.
No doctor’s order is needed for a screening mammogram for women 40 and over. Please contact the R.A.I.N Nurse
Jennifer Ely at 563-1722 for any questions and to schedule an appointment. The Mobile Mammography Coach will be
visiting Sharonville on the following days:
Tuesday, October 6th at Station 86 (located at 11637 Chester Road) from 9:00am to 12:00pm.
Tuesday, October 6th at Station 87 (located at Reading Road & Cornell Road) from 3:00pm to 6:00pm.
Wednesday, October 7th at Station 88 (located at 7150 Fields-Ertel Road) from 1:00pm to 4:00pm.
Holiday Tips from the Fire Department
The kitchen is the heart of the home, especially at Thanksgiving. Kids love to be
involved in holiday preparations. Safety in the kitchen is important, especially on
Thanksgiving Day when there is a lot of activity and people at home. Don’t forget
these useful tips for your gathering:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Stay in the kitchen when you are cooking on the stove top so you can keep an eye on the food.
Stay in the home when cooking your turkey and check on it frequently.
Keep children away from the stove. The stove will be hot and kids should stay 3 feet away.
Make sure kids stay away from hot food and liquids. The steam or splash from vegetables, gravy or coffee could
cause serious burns.
Keep the floor clear so you don’t trip over kids, toys, pocketbooks or bags.
Keep knives out of the reach of children.
Be sure electric cords from an electric knife, coffee maker, plate warmer or mixer are not dangling off the counter
within easy reach of a child.
Keep matches and utility lighters out of the reach of children — up high in a locked cabinet.
Never leave children alone in room with a lit a candle.
Make sure your smoke alarms are working. Test them by pushing the test button.
Christmas Trees help to make your home a festive place. Remember these tree safety tips this holiday:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Choose a tree with fresh, green needles that do not fall off when touched.
Before placing the tree in the stand, cut 2 inches from the base of the trunk.
Make sure the tree is at least 3 feet away from any heat source, like fireplaces, radiators, candles, heat vents or lights.
Make sure the tree is not blocking any exits from the home.
Add water to the tree stand daily.
Use lights that have the label of a recognized testing laboratory. Some lights are only for indoor or outdoor use.
Replace any lights that have worn or broken cords and read the manufacturer’s instructions for how many strands
may be connected together.
Never use lit candles to decorate a tree of any kind live or artificial.
Always turn off the tree lights before leaving home or going to bed.

We are delighted to share that Mayor Kevin Hardman recently announced
the construction of an upscale service hotel connected to the Sharonville
Convention Center. Construction of the Hyatt Place Sharonville Convention
Center will begin in the fall of this year.
“This one-of-a-kind
amenity allows us
to continue to grow
economic impact for
our communityand
Hamilton County.”
The addition of a premier hotel like the Hyatt Place further enhances the
Sharonville Convention Center’s status among meeting and event planners

to host their events and hotel guests under one roof.
It is truly an exciting time for Sharonville and the Northern Lights District.

Sharonville Chamber
President Retiring
The Sharonville Chamber of Commerce announces the retirement of Rich Arnold,
President, effective on December 31, 2015.
Jamie Charlton, Chairman, Sharonville Chamber Board of Directors and President of
Saxon Financial said, “Rich’s passion, drive, and leadership have helped the Chamber
grow and prosper. When he started in 2007 the Chamber had 76 members and today
we have 311 members.”
Rich Arnold shared, “my wife and family have been after me for several years, asking me
to slow down a bit. I would also like to spend time traveling, visiting friends, and most
important of all, have more time with my family and our 5 grandchildren. Working with
this Chamber has been the highlight of my career.”
Rich further added, “During the past 8 years, I’ve had the privilege of coming to work
each day with a driving passion and desire to build an active and well respected
Chamber in our community. We have made great progress in serving the regional
business community, working closely with the City of Sharonville, offering a long list
of benefits, and many educational and cost saving opportunities. In addition we met
one of our long term goals which was to provide a professional office with a huge
conference/training room.”
Rich Arnold
Sharonville Chamber
of Commerce President
In addition the Business Courier has selected Rich as a winner of its 2015 Second Act
Awards. This award recognizes local professionals who have forged new paths after
achieving success in their first careers.

BRICKS 4 KIDS SCHOOL’S OUT MINI CAMP!
Community Center Craft Room
Do you have a LEGO® fanatic in your home? Join Bricks
4 Kidz as they host a series of 2 hour building workshops
on days when the kids are off of school. Bricks 4 Kidz is
an enrichment program that teaches children concepts in
science, mechanics, and engineering using LEGO® bricks.
In each workshop, the kids will be introduced to new concepts
and then build models using bricks, gears, axles, motors and
more to illustrate the concept. Each workshop includes a
custom mini-figure that the kids will create, use during the
camp, and then take home! All workshops are unique, with all
new models and lessons each time. Your kids have never had
so much fun learning. Please note, our supplies are reused
from class to class. Students will not take home completed
models as that would make our program costs unaffordable
for most. LEGO® is a registered trademark of the LEGO®
Group of Companies and is not affiliated with Bricks 4 Kidz.

when they decide whether they’re good at something or not.
This decision will affect not only the rest of their academic
career, but their lifetime learning as well. This program

- a teaching tool from which the majority of learners prefer
and ALL learners benefit! Our program works because it’s
not only hands-on and visual...it’s simply fun. Add to this our

more, this session can help you develop a personal routine to
