Please Recycle This Newspaper
By Jane Maiolo
The Metroparks Toledo
commissioners have accepted
a grant that will assist with
habitat management.
At the June 22 meeting,
the commissioners agreed to
accept $278,000 for habitat
management activities on
2,400 acres of park land during fiscal year 2017, which
runs from July 1, 2016 to June
30, 2017.
Under the agreement, the
park system will provide up to
$226,000 of in-kind match,
explained Tim Schetter,
metroparks director of natural
resources, adding that the total
cost is estimated at $504,000.
The Nature Conservancy
and Ohio Department of Natural Resources will receive
the award through the federal
Pittman-Robertson funds of
the U.S. Department of Interior.
$25.00 per year
Work performed under the
grant will be done by the
park’s natural resources division and includes protection,
enhancement and restoration
of land.
“Additionally, during the
grant period, the Nature Conservancy’s
interagency
restoration team will perform
habitat management activities
on Metroparks-owned lands
in the Oak Opening Corridor
that were restored under previous grant awards,” Mr.
Schetter said.

the final phase of mill renovations.
He reminded the commissioners that work on the historic mill began with
reinforcement of the structure’s foundation followed
earlier this spring by replacement of timber framing, windows and the accessible ramp
at the building entrance.
Commissioner Fritz Byers,
who visited the park over Fathers Day, commended the
chief on the work. “The mill
looks great.”
•Authorized the executive
director and treasurer to provide investment and financial
instructions to financial institutions as needed.
Treasurer Matt Cleland explained that banks are now requiring entities to designate
the person or persons making
banking decisions.
The current authorizations
are for Signature Bank, and
T.D. Ameritrade, he said,
adding that the commissioners
have approved similar authorizations for Fifth Third Bank
and Morgan Stanley.
•Learned that Middlegrounds park in Toledo is
scheduled to open to the public on Saturday, September
17.
•Paid bills totaling $1.89
million for the month of May.
The next commissioners
meeting will be at 8:30 a.m.,
Wednesday, July 20 in the
Macomber Lodge at Pearson
park, and is open to the public.
Down electrical line
forces closure of I-475
A downed electrical line
forced the closure of I-475 in
Sylvania Township last
Wednesday.
Lieutenant William Bowers of the Toledo Post of the
Ohio Highway said the incident occurred near the Central Avenue overpass when
construction crews working
on the roadway in the area
struck a utility pole causing
an electrical wire to hang
close to interstate traffic.
Two semi-trucks traveling southbound came in contact with the electrical line,
and one of them caused the
line to snap, the lieutenant
explained.
The electrical line became entangled between the
trailer and cab of the semitruck, and laid across the
southbound lanes and southbound exit ramp to Central
Avenue.
The line also
caused a small grass fire in
the median.
Traffic was shut down on
both sides of the interstate
for about an hour until
Toledo Edison could remove
the electrical line. No damage was sustained to either
vehicle, and no injuries were
reported.
The OHP was assisted at
the scene by the Sylvania
Township Police and Fire
Departments, Springfield
Township Fire Department,
Sylvania Police Department,
and the Ohio Department of
Transportation.
Correction
In the June 28 issue of the
Journal, the story “Fire and
sheriff’s reports posted for
May” should have said that
the “Springfield Township
trustees agreed to a salary for
a battalion chief who will be
assigned to one of the township fire stations.”

With schools closed for the
summer, families in need can
still take advantage of a free
meal program for children.
In the Holland/Springfield
area, the Summer Food Service Program is offered at Community Homecoming Park,
Angola Road.
Meals are served from
noon to 1 p.m. Monday to Friday, through August 12.
All children ages 1 through
18 are eligible to receive free
meals during the summer
months at participating program sites.
Individuals ages 19 through
21 who have been identified as
having mental or physical disabilities and are following individualized
education
programs (IEPs) through their
current enrollment in educational programs also are eligible for free summer meals.
Wendi Huntley, spokesperson for Summer Meal Partners
of Northwest Ohio and director of development at Feed
Lucas County Children Inc.,
said the program has helped
feed thousands of children
across the state.
In 2015, more than 50,000
Ohio children received free
daily meals at more than 1,700
sites run by local program
sponsors, the Ohio Department of Education and the
U.S. Department of Agriculture.
The Summer Meal Partners
of Northwest Ohio is a collaboration of community organizations dedicated to fighting
childhood hunger.
The group emphasizes data
collection and analysis to ensure that summer sites’ locations can effectively serve
children in need.
In 2015, the group provided 264,680 meals and
snacks to children in the
greater Toledo area.
This year, they will support
150 meal sites in Toledo–an
increase from 86 in 2014.
“The Summer Food Service Program helps to fill the
gap for so many of our most
vulnerable residents–hungry
children,” Ms. Huntley said.
“It is during the summer
months when those who especially rely on breakfast and
lunch during the school year,
stand in need of our help.”
U.S. Senator
Sherrod
Brown, a member of the Senate Agriculture Committee, is
urging families in need to utilize the service.
For many parents, he noted
that summertime “means
stress over how to care for
children while parents work,
or how to feed children nutritious meals without the school
lunches they count on throughout the rest of the year.
“That’s why every year we
work to get the word out about
the Summer Food Service Program so that families know the
end of the school year doesn’t
mean an end to food services
for their children. Because
summer break shouldn’t mean
going hungry.”

Area teens challenged at Penta robotics camp Join Us In Worship
For dozens of area teens
who love technology, their
skills were put to the test June
20-22 during a VEX Robotics
Camp at Penta Career Center.
Open to any student residing in Penta’s 16 member
school districts which includes Springfield, the camp
was geared to teens entering
seventh through 12th grade.
On day one of the camp,
teams of two were formed
with the goal of assembling
robotic units that resemble
lunar vehicles. The robots
were constructed from a standard kit provided by VEX Robotics, which produces the
materials to introduce students to the field of robotics.
Participants used the VEX
Robotics design system to
build a frame and base for
their robots, interchange
wheels, create geared armatures and engineer wiring.
On the second day, teams
modified their robots in
preparation for competition.
Working together, the students adapted their vehicles
for user-piloted challenges
and obstacles, as well as au-
tonomous robot challenges
that required programming.
On day three, participants
spent the morning tweaking
their designs before competing against each other in the
afternoon.
This year’s contest consisted of displacing and moving as many yellow stars,
above, as possible to their opponents’ side. They also maneuvered their vehicles to
keep the opponent from pushing any stars back across the
line.
A challenge facing teams
occurred at the start of the
contest. They were required to
program the system to drive
itself for the first 15 seconds
before manual control resumed.
Some of the vehicles
strayed off course, frustrating
the youthful engineers.
The field of play changes
each year, allowing students
who take the camp annually
to face new challenges, explained Mike James, a camp
counselor and Ohio Northern
University student.
Campers were clearly en-
gaged in the competition,
jumping and calling out advice to the teammate controlling the vehicle as the contest
continued.
Two teams prevailed and
were proclaimed overall winners. They are the team of
Eric Rine from Bowling
Green High School and
Daemien Cunningham-Wagner, Perrysburg High School,
and
teammates
Riley
Adamski of Maumee High
School and Hope Santangelo
of BGHS.
The primary goal of the
camp is to educate students in
robotics through trial and
error, explained Mark Robinson, instructor.
“This is STEM education,” he said, adding that
much of the learning is hands
on.
For the students, building
the robotic vehicles goes beyond science, technology, engineering and math. The
game is fun and intense as
they try to outdo the competition.
The camp also allows students to employ STEM con-
cepts on the playing field,
while learning teamwork,
leadership, communications
and more.
Presented by the Robotics
Education and Competition
Foundation, the VEX robotics
contest can be taken well beyond the camp environment.
Worldwide, teams of students design and construct robots to play against other
teams in a game-based engineering challenge.
Tournaments are held
year-round at local, state and
national levels, and local
champions have the opportunity to compete against the
best in the world at the VEX
Robotics World Championship held each spring.
Penta Career Center is one
of a handful of districts
statewide to offer robotic
camps this summer.
The camp is sponsored by
the Robotics Advanced Manufacturing Technical Engineering
Collaborative
(RAMTEC) of which Penta is
one of nine career center partners in Ohio.

Putts Fur Mutts golf outing, putt putt event set for July 9
On Saturday, July 9, area
golfers will hit the course at
Bedford Hills Golf Club to
spend the day enjoying one of
their favorite hobbies and participating in a friendly competition. The morning, however,
will have much more significance than a typical day on
the greens because these
golfers will be participating in
the “Putts Fur Mutts” Golf
Outing and Putt Putt Event to
benefit the Puppy Rescue
Mission.
“I have great respect for
our brave military men and
women. They make so many
sacrifices to serve our country, but no soldier should ever
be faced with the decision to
leave a beloved stray animal
behind in Afghanistan or
other war zones or places
overseas,”
said
Jill
Borkowski, event co-chair. “I
think about the lives our
adopted pets have lived and
wish a safe, spoiled, carefree
life for all dogs and cats. Our
dogs Belle and Bailey and our
cat Oreo all passed within the
last 19 months; I cannot think
of a better way to honor them
than to help give animals in
war zones a loving, forever
home with the U.S. soldiers
who bond with and rescue
them.”
The “Putts Fur Mutts”
event is presented by Paws &
Remember of Northwest
Ohio and will include 18
holes of golf with cart and
range balls or 18 or 36 holes
of Putt Putt, prizes for the top
three golf teams, a goodie
bag, donuts, bagels and Biggby coffee, a dessert bar, contests, a 50/50 raffle, and
more.
The cost for golf is $340
per team or $85 per individual
(teams and individuals wel-
come for golf).
The cost for Putt Putt is
$25 per person, and children
are welcome.
Golf will be a shotgun
start at 8 a.m., with Putt Putt
starting at 10 a.m. Golfers and
Putt Putt players will meet-up
for lunch donated by Outback
Steakhouse Toledo and a
silent auction.
Some of the auction items
will include:
•A four-day/three-night
stay in the Royal Towers at
Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas.
•The chance to watch batting practice on the field prior
to a Cleveland Indians home
game.
•A “trip to Orlando” including two nights at the
Hampton Inn & Suites–Orlando South Lake Buena
Vista, passes to SeaWorld Orlando and Aquatica Orlando,
Walt Disney World Park Hopper passes and golf at Reunion Resort
•Boston Red Sox tickets,
the chance to watch batting
practice on the field, a stadium tour and a one night stay
at the Onyx Hotel.
•$150 worth of Target gift
cards.
•Baseball tickets with
hotel stays (Cincinnati Reds,
Chicago White Sox, Baltimore Orioles, Washington
Nationals,
Philadelphia
Phillies, Houston Astros)
•An American flag previously flown over the U.S.
Capitol.
•University of Toledo football, BGSU football and Mud
Hens tickets.
•Autographed

Sisters of St. Francis install new leadership team
The Sisters of St. Francis of Sylvania, installed the 2016–20 leadership team on Sunday,
June 26, at a special liturgy in Our Lady Queen of Peace Chapel on the Motherhouse
grounds in Sylvania. The five-member team will oversee congregational governance and
the day-to-day operation of the Sylvania Franciscans. From left are Sister Theresa Darga,
assistant congregational minister; Sister Rachel Marie Nijakowski, councilor; Sister
Sharon Derivan, councilor; Sister Mary Jon Wagner, congregational minister, and Sister
Shannon Schrein, councilor.
The perilous state of the
district’s finances was punctuated in January 2015, when
representatives from the Ohio
Department of Education informed members of the Board
of Education and administration that Springfield Local
Schools had been assigned to
the classification of “fiscal
caution.” Since that time, the
district has continued its wellpublicized efforts to increase
operational efficiencies and reduce spending in all areas. As
promised, more than a year
later, those practices continue–all possible ways to reduce expenses are identified
and put into practice. In addition, the district has remained
true to promises made during
levy campaigns to remain
transparent by providing detailed reports each month during board of education
meetings.
At the time the district was
placed in the “fiscal caution”
classification, the community
learned that the Auditor of
State’s office would fund and
conduct a full performance
audit. The audit was extensive
and examined every facet of
district operations. Reviewed
were: finances, human resources/staffing, transportation, food service and facilities.
When results were presented to the community, few
could fault the efforts employed by the district. These
efforts were validated by the
audit. The audit revealed that
the only means available to
further reduce costs would result in the total decimation of
the district’s K-12 academic
programs. Athletics, extracurricular and performing arts
programs also were at risk.
Thankfully, the audit results
motivated a rallying cry
throughout the community and
the district’s $3.9 million fiveyear emergency operating levy
passed.
That was 14 months ago
and Treasurer P. Ryan Lockwood, III and I have remained
true to the promises made to
“right the ship.” While there is
always more to be done, actions that took place at the June
22 board of education meeting,
when David Michel from the
Ohio Department of Education
returned, show that progress
has been made.
Effective immediately, the
Ohio Department of Education
has removed the district from
its fiscal caution status.
This does not signify an
end to the district’s efforts to
identify operational efficiencies. It does not signify an end
to the district’s transparency or
efforts to maintain strong communication with the community.
It does, however,
recognize significant progress
towards restoring financial stability.
While some expressed concern that passage of the fiveyear emergency levy would
restore a “business as usual”
mentality, members of the
board of education, Mr. Lockwood and I assure that is not
the case.
As one example, during the
next several months, residents
will learn more details of the
district’s Energy Optimizer
project that is projected to save
on energy consumption, resulting in a significant reduction in
payments and anticipated savings on costs associated with
HVAC and lighting.
In addition, negotiations
with the labor unions representing both certified and noncertified staff demonstrated
cooperation and a mutual commitment to reduce expenditures in all areas of district
operations.
The definition of #spring
fieldstrong will continue to be
rewritten.
Included are many points of
pride–highlighted by a school
district where families choose
to send their students; student
spirit is high thanks to rigorous
academic
offerings
and
co/extra-curricular programs
that are unmatched.
Soccer referee training
course to be held in July
Referees are needed for
high school soccer games in
northwest Ohio.
Anyone age 18 and older
who loves the game is invited to consider becoming a
referee.
A course for beginners
will be held in Toledo on
July 16, 17, 23 and 24.
Upon completion of the
course, participants will be
certified to referee high
school games this fall.
During their first year, beginning referees are paired
with experienced referees for
all matches.

Twp. trustees amend zoning request
By Jane Maiolo
At the June 16 meeting,
the Springfield Township
trustees approved an amendment to a zoning change.
The request to rezone
7371 and 7405 West Bancroft
Street from RA-4 rural residential to R-1 single family
planned unit development
(PUD) was approved by the
trustees last September.
According to township administrator Leslie Kohli, consulting engineer George
Oravecz was informed by
Lucas County officials that
the development is required
to follow subdivision regulations which require a minimum spacing of 800 feet for
new roads.
As a result, there is insufficient space for the
ingress/egress roads.
The township appealed
the decision to the Lucas
County engineer’s office. “It
is the board’s preference to
have two drives rather than
just one for safety concerns,”
wrote Ms. Kohli in a letter to
Kyle Warner of the engineer’s
office. “Even if it was not life
threatening but rather an obstacle to travel such as an accident or a down tree, this
would give residents an alternate route.”
In the amendment to the
PUD, the county waived the
800 feet spacing but is requiring that the roads be built to
county specifications and
pass inspection by the county
engineer.
Other Business
In other business, the
trustees:
•Authorized the installa-
tion of no parking signs
along both sides of Pilliod
Road from Gunn to Sudbury
roads.
•Learned that Lucas
County has removed its portion of Geiser Road from the
county highway system and
established it as a township
road.
The township is now responsible for maintaining
Geiser from Eber to Kieswetter roads, approximately 1.85
miles.
•Accepted a Lucas County
estimate of $6,887 to microsurface Byrnwyck West and
Fenwyck roads.
•Announced that an issue
with county permits for a
maintenance carport have
been resolved with the county
agreeing to waive the permit
fees.
In May, public services director Mike Hampton said the
county notified the township
it would need to pay $400 for
a permit.
Ms. Kohli contacted them
for a waiver, and reminded
county officials that when
they came to the township
several years earlier to construct facilities on McCord
Road, the township waived
permit fees in excess of $400.
She said county officials
agreed to a one-time fee
waiver. “In the future, they
won’t, so we won’t,” she
added.
•Announced that new
chairs have arrived and are
being used at the township
hall. “They have come in
very handy,” Ms. Kohli said.
•Revised a contract with
Thomson Reuter West, trimming service.
Ms. Kohli said by reducing the level of service to include only National Public
Records search and Ohio
case law and statutes only, the
township will save $1,446 annually. Additionally, the
three-year contract calls for
increases of 3 percent per
year in the second and third
years instead of the current 5
percent.
•Announced that the Ability Center currently has
Lucas County community development block grants available for county residents not
residing in Toledo or Oregon
who need to make home access modifications. For more
information, call 419-8855733.
•Paid bills from June 7 to
16, totalling, $58,781 and
electronic payments from
June 3 to 15 of $86,530.
The next trustees meeting
is at 7 p.m., Tuesday, July 5,
at the township meeting hall,
7617 Angola Road, and is
open to the public.

Business News
Wendy’s is supporting adoption locally, one brick at a
time. From July 1 through 31, select Wendy’s restaurants in
northwest Ohio are striving to raise thousands of dollars. The
cost to adopt one child into a loving and permanent family
is $5,000. To reach this goal, local Wendy’s restaurants are
selling paper “sandcastle bricks” for $1. All proceeds will
benefit the Adopt America Network, located in Toledo.
During the month of July, customers can visit any of the
25 participating Wendy’s in Toledo, Oregon, Fostoria, Bowling Green, Perrysburg, Rossford, Swanton, Holland,
Maumee, Sylvania, and Adrian and Tecumseh, Michigan, to
purchase a “sandcastle brick,” sign their name on it and have
it displayed in the restaurant to show their support of adoption.
Adopt America is a nonprofit organization committed to
improving the lives of adoptable children throughout the
United States, who are in the foster care system, by placing
them with permanent, loving families.
“Our Wendy’s restaurants have always been proud to support Adopt America Network, since adoption was Dave
Thomas’ favorite charitable cause,” said franchise owner
Becky Williams.
“Every year we raise money to help defray the cost to a
family wanting to adopt a child. By selling the bricks we are
able to involve the community.”
Wendy’s founder, Dave Thomas, was adopted as a child.
He was an advocate for children in foster care and was committed to raising awareness of children who are waiting for
permanent homes and loving families in North America. He
founded the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption, a nonprofit public charity dedicated to increasing adoptions of
children in North America’s foster care system.
The Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption works in collaboration locally with the Adopt America Network to increase the number of adoptions in northwest Ohio and
southeast Michigan.

Notre Dame Academy inducts three into Hall of Fame: Women of Vision
In recognition of their
community and professional
leadership, three Notre Dame
Academy alumnae have been
added to the School’s Hall of
Fame.
They are: Lois Laplante
Tate, Class of 1948; Marcy
Gross McMahon, 1967, and
Dr. Laura Miller-Graff, 2004.
They joined the 64 previous
inductees inducted to the Hall
of Fame since 1989.
Ms. Tate was born in
Toledo and was one of six
children. She grew up in east
Toledo and attended St. Louis
Grade School where she first
met the Sisters of Notre
Dame.
The Sisters at St. Louis
helped her obtain a scholarship to attend Notre Dame
Academy for high school
where she joined her older sister, Joanne.
Ms. Tate remembers Sr.
Mary Luanne who was her
typing teacher and helped her
get her first job as secretary at
the Catholic Club. This position at the Catholic Club also
led to another life-changing
opportunity–meeting her husband, Robert, who was the
first athletic director of the
Toledo Council of Catholic
Youth.
This year they are celebrating their 65th wedding anniversary.
As her family grew to include three children and now
four grandchildren, she continued her work at the
Catholic Club and became the
secretary to Monsignor
Jerome Schmidt, the director
of the Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) and the director
of the Diocesan Youth Department.
Her professional work also
took her to St. Charles Hospital, where she worked as a
registrar.
Ms. Tate has been a member of Epiphany of the Lord
parish in East Toledo for more
than 60 years, where much of
her service has been focused.
For years, she has organized
and cooked for the annual
parish fish fry, participated in
numerous activities of the
Altar Rosary Society, and has
helped plan and carry out the
annual Homecoming Festival.
A particular focus of the
parish activities is outreach to
the community at large, and
Ms. Tate’s service has extended to persons who are
under served and in need.
She was nominated by her
granddaughter, Sarah Bremer,
a 2010 graduate of Notre
Dame Academy. Fr. Michael
Geiger, pastor of Epiphany of
the Lord Parish, wrote a letter
of support for her nomination.
Ms. Gross McMahon was
born in Toledo and, as a student at the former Ladyfield
School, first came under the
instruction of the Sisters of
Notre Dame. She remembers
that the Sisters of Notre Dame
treating child and partner violence.
She was nominated by her
sister and NDA alumna Carolyn Miller-Byard.

were an important part of her
family growing up. Her
mother, Donna Munson Gross
Teipel, also was a graduate of
NDA. As a child, Ms. Gross
McMahon recalls coming
with her mother to Alumnae
Association meetings and
events at NDA.
Catholic education was
important to her family. Her
sister, Mary Jacqueline, attended NDA, and her two
brothers attended St. Francis
de Sales.
Ms. Gross McMahon especially remembers Sr. Mary
Genevra, long-time art instructor at Notre Dame Academy, who taught about values
and life as well as color and
technique.
After graduation from
NDA, she attended the University of Toledo and received
her bachelor of fine arts degree.
Marcy married her husband, Brian, and as a wife and
eventually a mother to Brittany, a 2000 NDA grad, chose
to begin her involvement in a
number of charitable and philanthropic causes over the next
years.
She has reached out to
other women as a mentor,
support and example of faith.
She became involved in a
number of non-profit and
philanthropic organizations as
a way to share her gifts and
improve the lives of others.
Over the last 40 years, she
has dedicated herself to the
Girl Scouts of America, Partners for Clean Streams,
Bethany House, the Ability
Center of Greater Toledo, the
Toledo Opera Guild, and
Women in Philanthropy at the
University of Toledo. Of special note is her work with the
Make-A-Wish Foundation. In
2014, she received the prestigious Jefferson Award for pioneering the 12th local
chapter of the Make-A-Wish
Foundation.
She was nominated to the
NDA Alumnae Hall of Fame
by her friend and NDA
alumna Deborah Ayres Budd.
Dr. Miller-Graff is part of
a large, extended family with
deep roots in the Toledo Community. She has five aunts and

MAX & MOLLY
Meet Max and
Molly. This dynamic
duo comes as a complete set. These two
dogs are in love with
each other–they came
to the Humane Society
together on May 31,
and are hoping to go
home together. They
were surrendered by
their owners because
they were moving and
couldn’t take this pair
with them.
Max, above, is an 8year-old
Brittany
Spaniel, and Molly,
below, is a 5-year-old
chocolate Lab. They are
both mellow, relaxed,
and laid back.
If you live a quiet
life and are looking for
some good, loving companionship this pair will
be perfect for you. They
both enjoy going for walks together and are well behaved
on their leashes. They get along well with other dogs and
love their playgroups here at the shelter. They were raised
as outdoor hunting dogs, so don’t let their ages fool you,
they still have some “get up and go” in them. Stop by and
see if this team is the right fit for you.

The Toledo Lucas County
Public Library’s Board of
Trustees unanimously approved a resolution during its
regular board meeting on
June 23, requesting that the
Lucas County Board of Commissioners place an operating
levy on the November 2016
ballot.
The levy provides more
than half of the operating
budget.
“Strong libraries build
strong communities, and the
library demonstrates value by
continuously delivering a
strong return on investment*.
This decision further shows
our commitment to growing
futures, creating opportunity,
and transforming lives,” said
Clyde Scoles, director of
Toledo Lucas County Public
Library.
With the approval of the
library’s Board of Trustees,
the resolution will be delivered to the Lucas County
Board of Commissioners for
them to place a 3.7 mill, fiveyear operating levy on the
November 8 ballot.
The 2.9 mills would renew
the existing levy and the 0.8
mill would be additional. The
current levy, which was approved by voters in 2012, was
a 2.9 mill referendum, which
expires on December 31,
2017.
The additional 0.8 mill is
expected to restore what library patrons lost due to funding cuts and state funding.
Mr. Scoles, who also serves
as the library’s fiscal officer,
further remarked.

and provide more single parents and their children with
the help and support they
need to succeed and become
productive members of the
community. Thanks to last
year’s Chicks Mix, Mom’s
House was able to implement new programs, including
DADS
Matter–a
program to help engage and
empower young fathers in
the lives of their children.
Already this year, Mom’s
House has helped six moms
and three preschoolers graduate from school.
Tickets for the Chicks Mix
are $37 each and $20 for Junior Chicks (ages 20 and
younger). To purchase tickets,

in passing this levy unless it
was absolutely necessary.
This levy represents more
than half of the library’s operating budget, with the state’s
public library fund contributing the rest. The state contribution
has
decreased
substantially, and we are currently operating at 1997 funding levels. We need to
improve upon this to continue
the library service the residents of Lucas County have
long enjoyed and depend on.”
For the owner of a
$100,000 home, the 0.8 mill
increase amounts to 8 cents a
day. Currently, the homeowner pays $87.50 per year
based on the present 2.9 mill
levy renewal. With the additional 0.8 mill increase, for a
proposed 3.7 mills total, a
homeowner will pay $116.81
annually.
“We’re doing great things
to help restore vitality to the
many and diverse communities in Toledo and northwest
Ohio–our branch libraries are
iconic in the neighborhoods
they serve and represent beacons of hope. With 68 percent
of the population being proud
card holders, this levy is essential to protecting and
growing their investment,”
said Mr. Scoles.
*A recent study conducted
for the library by Dr. Howard
Fleeter, a noted economist
from Columbus, Ohio, found
that the library provides an
economic value of nearly $4
in benefits for every $1 invested. See more details at
