administration’s attempt to
thwart may also serve as rallying points for get-out-the-vote
drives among Latinos.
Ben Monterroso, executive
director of Mi Familia Vota,
said his group is targeting new

is a group trying to increase
Latino voting numbers.
“Neighborhoods where we

Arizona’s immigration law and
anger over largely Republican
votes against legislation that
would have given many young
people brought to the country
illegally by their parents a
chance to become legal U.S.
residents.
Immigration did not rank as
a top voting issue for Latino
registered voters in the Pew
Hispanic survey. It came in fifth
behind education, jobs, health
care, and the federal budget
deficit.
But two-thirds of registered
Latino voters say that have
talked about the immigration
issue with someone they know
in the past year. Those who had
were more motivated to vote,
the survey found.
The Pew Hispanic
Center’s survey also found:
• Thirty-eight percent of
Latino voters whose primary
language is Spanish are absolutely certain to vote this
year.
• Republican Latino registered voters are more likely
than Democratic Latino registered voters to say they
have given the election quite
a lot of thought, 44 percent
versus 28 percent.
• Among Latino registered voters who identify
with or lean toward the Republican Party, 18 percent
say the GOP is better for
Latinos than the Democratic
Party, while 60 percent say
they see no difference.
The Pew Hispanic Center survey is based on telephone interviews done
Aug. 17 through Sept. 19
by Social Science Research Solutions (SSRS)
with 1,375 Latinos ages
18 and older. Of those surveyed, 618 were registered
voters. Some interviews
were conducted in Spanish. The margin of sampling error is plus or minus
3.3 percentage points for
the sample of all Latinos,
plus or minus 4.88 for registered voters.

Republican opposes México’s participation in
immigration appeal
PHOENIX, Oct. 5, 2010
(AP): Arizona GOP Gov.
Jan Brewer is opposing a
court ruling that lets other
countries file a friend-ofthe-court brief in her appeal of a decision that put
parts of the state’s new
immigration law on hold.
Mexico and 10 other
Latin American countries
were granted permission
by the 9th U.S. Circuit
Court of Appeals to
present their viewpoints.
Brewer’s lawyers told
the appeals court that the
opinions of foreign countries have no bearing on
whether the law is constitutional.
The governor says she was
offended that foreign governments were meddling in a
domestic legal dispute.
México was joined in its
brief by Argentina, Bolivia,
Brazil, Chile, Costa Rica,
Ecuador, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Paraguay and Peru.
Immigration law challengers want to voice
opinions
Oct. 5, 2010 (AP): Groups
that challenged Arizona’s
new immigration law are
asking a federal appeals court
to let them file friend-of-thecourt briefs in an appeal of a
ruling that put parts of the
law on hold.
Civil rights groups, a
Phoenix police officer, a
Latino clergy group, and others asked for permission to
make filings that will urge
the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals in San Francisco to
uphold the ruling.
Gov. Jan Brewer is appealing the ruling that
arose from the U.S. Justice
Department’s challenge to
the law.
The groups seeking to
file the briefs include the
American Civil Liberties
Union, the Mexican American Legal Defense and
Education Fund and the
League of United Latin
American Citizens.

Al deportar a 392.863
personas, la Agencia de
Control de Aduanas e
Inmigración casi llega a
su meta de 400.000 para el
año fiscal del 2010 que
terminó el 30 de

está por encima de las
389.834 deportaciones
del 2009.
“Ha sido otro año que
hemos roto marcas en la
Agencia de Aduanas e
Inmigración”, dijo el
miércoles la secretaria de
Seguridad Nacional, Janet
Napolitano, durante una
conferencia de prensa.
De los deportados por
delitos graves, el 33% eran
autores de crímenes como
asesinatos, violaciones y
narcotráfico, indicaron las
autoridades. Más de 1.000
habían sido declarados
culpables de homicidio,
unos 6.000 por delitos
sexuales, 45.000 por delitos
por drogas, y 28.000 por
manejar en estado de
ebriedad, indicaron las
autoridades de inmigración.
En el año fiscal 2010, la
agencia también arrestó a
197.000 inmigrantes que no
habían cometido delitos
graves, cerca de 56.051
menos que el año anterior, de
acuerdo con estadísticas
obtenidas por la AP.

Michigan artist wins top ArtPrize award
GRAND RAPIDS, Oct.
7, 2010 (AP): The $250,000
grand prize in the second
annual ArtPrize competition was awarded Thursday
night to a Grand Rapids
artist and his massive penciled drawing depicting
U.S. Cavalry officers.
Chris LaPorte’s 8-by28-foot “Cavalry, American Officers, 1921,” was
picked following two
weeks of public voting. He
said winning was an “overwhelming” experience, and
was appreciative of the
public response.
“People expressed very
personal things that they
felt were connected to viewing the piece,” LaPorte told
The Associated Press in a
telephone
interview.
“Many people said they had
come back four and five
times, that each time it elicited something new.”
The second-place award
of $100,000 went to Mia
Tavonatti from Santa Ana,
Calif., for “Svelata” and the
third-place award of $50,000
went to Beili Liu of Austin,
Texas, for “Lure/Wave,
Grand Rapids.”
They were among 10
works that received a total
of $449,000 decided by the
public, which was conducted online and by cell
phone through “American
Idol”-style voting. Six
works also won awards of
$5,000 each.
“Cavalry” is a representation of the soldiers, their
legacy and “the countless
organization of pencil marks
that make up a composition,” LaPorte wrote in a
description of the work,
which was displayed at the
Grand Rapids Art Museum.
“It is about the process of
drawing, and also a portrait
of these men who must have
survived horrific events to
preserve what we experience
today,” he wrote.
The work will become
part of the ArtPrize collection and be made available
for loan to art institutions,
organizers said.
LaPorte said no decision
had been made about what to
do with the prize money, but
he said it should allow him
and his girlfriend to make
more ambitious artwork. He
said he also expected to be
able to pay of some debts.
LaPorte operates a fine
arts studio and was one of
more than 1,713 artists
from 21 countries who displayed their works at 192
venues in and around
downtown Grand Rapids.
ArtPrize opened Sept. 22
and ends Sunday.
More than 465,500
votes were cast in the competition, including 16,905
in the final round. In 2009,
more than 334,000 votes
were cast.

5 killed, 4 injured in crash in southeast Michigan
GREEN OAK TOWNSHIP,
Oct. 10, 2010 (AP): Five people
were killed and four others seriously injured Sunday when a
car crossed the median of a
busy southeastern Michigan
expressway and struck an SUV,
authorities say.
The crash happened about
3:30 p.m. on U.S. 23 in
Livingston County’s Green
Oak Township, just south of
Brighton and about 30 miles
northwest of Detroit. Authorities closed the highway for
about four hours.
Three people were dead at
the scene and two others died
at a hospital, the township police department said in a news
release.
Police said the accident
happened when a northbound
Toyota Prius with four teenagers in it crossed the median
and hit a southbound
Chevrolet Blazer carrying
five people.
Police said those killed
were the driver of the Prius; a
19-year-old Okemos woman
and an 18-year-old Williamston woman who were passengers in that car; a 62-year-old
Fremont, Ohio, woman who
was driving the Blazer; and a
56-year-old man who was a
passenger in the SUV.
Three children in the sport
utility vehicle—ages 10, 5
and 3—were among those seriously injured, police said.
An 18-year-old Okemos man
who was in the Prius also was
seriously injured, police said.
Police did not release the
names of those involved in the
accident. They also did not
say if the occupants of the SUV
were related.
Deputy fire Chief Kevin
Gentry told the Livingston
County Daily Press & Argus
that heavy equipment had to
be used to remove six of the
people. Police said a portable
fire extinguisher was used to
put out a small fire in the SUV,
which was smoking when authorities arrived.
The crash happened near
several homes.
“I heard brakes squealing
and I knew something was
going to happen because it
was so loud, and then ‘Bang!”’
neighbor Betty Max told
WDIV-TV. “And then you saw
the car just rolling through the
air. It was just awful.”
State police said the expressway reopened about 7:30
p.m.

On the topic of economic

Bernero said he supports

said he opposes abortion except in cases of rape, incest, or
to save the mother’s life.
The debate took place at
Detroit Public Television’s
Wixom office without a studio audience. Debate sponsors and media watched on a
large screen in a nearby room.
Predictably, Democrats
watching the debate said
Bernero delivered some telling blows. Republicans said
Snyder looked positive while
Bernero looked desperate.
Questions were asked by
editorial page editors Nolan

Ohio governor candidates
clash on taxes, spending
By JULIE CARR SMYTH, AP Statehouse Correspondent
TOLEDO, Oct. 7, 2010
(AP): Ohio Gov. Ted
Strickland and Republican
challenger John Kasich are
clashing over taxes in the final debate of what has become a tight race in recent
weeks.
Kasich says Strickland,
the Democratic incumbent,
raised taxes last year when he
agreed to suspend a yearly
income tax cut. Strickland
denies that was a tax increase
and says the move allowed
$800 million to be spent on
education.
Polls have shown that
Strickland has cut into his
rival’s lead over the past
month.
The pair squared off
Thursday in Toledo.
Strickland
criticized
Kasich’s plan to eliminate
Ohio’s income tax, saying
it was a risky move that
would force drastic cuts in
state services.
Kasich says the only way
to turn around the state is to
cut government spending
and taxes.
GOP leader criticizes Iott
for Nazi uniform
WASHINGTON, D.C.,
Oct. 10, 2010 (AP): A top
congressional Republican is
criticizing a House GOP candidate from Ohio who wore a
Nazi uniform during reenactments of World War II
battles.
The Atlantic magazine
reported last week that Ohio
Republican Rich Iott has
participated in the re-enactments wearing a Nazi
Waffen-SS uniform since
2003. Iott says he has been
a historical re-enactor in
other venues for many
years.
Iott is running against incumbent U.S. Rep. Marcy
Kaptur in Ohio’s 9th District (Toledo to Lorain).
House Republicans’ No.
2 leader, Eric Cantor of Virginia, says he repudiates
Iott’s actions and would not
support someone who
would do that.
Cantor’s remarks came
after Democratic Rep.
Debbie Wasserman Schultz
of Florida cited Iott as an
example of GOP candidates
she said are extreme.
Cantor and Wasserman
Schultz appeared on “Fox
News Sunday.”

picks 7
people to
oversee Ohio
casinos
COLUMBUS, Oct. 8,
2010 (AP): Ohio Gov. Ted
Strickland is appointing a
Republican who backed his
2006 election and a veteran of the Cincinnati Police Department to a sevenmember commission to
regulate the state’s new casino industry.
The governor’s office on
Friday said Charles
“Rocky” Saxbe and
Michael Bolte were among
those picked for the commission of four Democrats
and three Republicans.
Saxbe will chair the group.
Other members include
Joseph Rugola, Vanessa
Whiting, Jerry Chabler,
William Kirkham, and
Greta Russell. The posts pay
$60,000 annually.
By law, the commission
must include an attorney, a
certified public accountant, a person with law enforcement experience, and
representation from counties where casinos will be
built.
Casinos approved by
voters last year are planned
in Cleveland, Columbus,
Cincinnati, and Toledo.

ARIES: MARCH 21 - APRIL 20
It could very well be that others have all the best
intentions; but you never know. Before you decide where
to place your trust give it time to simmer. It’s too soon to
tell whether this is the real thing.
TAURUS: APRIL 21 - MAY 20
It’s hard to say what it is that keeps you going from the
frying pan to the fire, but you’re about to do it again.
Check in with yourself one last time just to see if you’re
really up for another round of the SOS.
GEMINI: MAY 21 - JUNE 20
Moving is a big item for many of you. You could be
relocating or just in the mood for more variety. Don’t set
limits on how things unfold. Whatever form your changes
are taking trust is the operative word.
CANCER: JUNE 21 - JULY 20
In light of some of the things that have screwed up your
relationships in the past do you really think it’s wise to
take on another tough customer? This is the last thing you
need. You would be better off alone.
LEO: JULY 21 - AUGUST 20
You’re having a tough time figuring out how to juggle
two love interests. The question is; if you can’t have your
cake and eat it too, should you go for Showcase Number
One or opt for what’s behind the curtain?
VIRGO: AUGUST 21 - SEPTEMBER 20
You’re acutely aware that change is afoot but you have
no clue where things are going. The next few months will
open the way for your outer life to rearrange itself. Try to
relax and enjoy this transformation.
LIBRA: SEPTEMBER 21 - OCTOBER 20
When people come on too strong it’s hard to know
what to make of it. You weren’t prepared for this and it’s
hard to know if you’re here because you want to be or if
others have made it impossible to say no.
SCORPIO: OCTOBER 21 - NOVEMBER 20
You aren’t sure enough about what’s going on to know
how to handle it. If this experience has turned you around
it’s because you needed something this intense to prod
you into re-examining all of your relationships.
SAGITTARIUS: NOVEMBER 21 - DECEMBER 20
Your life feels like a total paradox. On the one hand it’s
blissfully perfect; on the other hand everything sucks.
Between the two extremes you find yourself wishing you
were better at taking the good with the bad.
CAPRICORN: DECEMBER 21 - JANUARY 20
Don’t question the need to rest. Like a volcano, you
can only breathe fire for so long. Regenerating yourself
is as vital to your progress as going full bore. Give yourself
time to go within and re-group.
AQUARIUS: JANUARY 21 - FEBRUARY 20
Stop pussy-footing around. You can’t expect people
to read your mind and playing games is a waste of energy.
You’ve got a 50-50 chance of getting turned down so get
in touch with what you want and ask for it.
PISCES: FEBRUARY 21 - MARCH 20
The benefit of the doubt can be hard to extend when
others seem bent on driving you nuts. Whatever their
motives, all you can do is forgive them and remove
yourself from the madness long enough for it to die out.
“Enough is enough,” says Auditor Anita López of her campaign
for re-election: “It’s time to stop all the lies.”

County auditor’s office.
It’s a place where employees find jobs for relatives.
And, as the only office in
Lucas County headed by an
elected Republican, it’s
where local Republican
leaders try to even the score
with the Democrats, who for
years have placed their supporters throughout the personnel rolls of the county.
Kaczala’s second wife
(Gina-Marie) was hired into
the auditor’s office in 1985,
long before her husband was
appointed to the post in
1993.
Former employees of the
auditor’s office, and at least
one current employee,
grumble that Mrs. Kaczala
doesn’t work her full eighthour shift because she comes
in late many days with her
husband – the boss.
Kaczala said his wife
does arrive late with him,
who as an elected official
isn’t confined to an eighthour work day. What the critics don’t know, he says, is
that his wife’s pay is docked
when she’s late to work,”
reported the Blade.
The article quotes
Kaczala as saying about his
wife, now López’s opponent, “I don’t think that she’s
ever gotten a full paycheck.
Not for as long as I’ve paid
her.”
López stresses that every
one of those hirings were all
made on the taxpayer’s dollar and that nepotism is actually illegal under Ohio
law.
“Thousands of Lucas
County taxpayers are losing
their jobs and their homes
and my opponent wants to
make sure that she and her
family and friends all have
cushy political jobs and collect government paychecks,” says López.
“I have wanted to take
the high road in this campaign but my opponent has
blatantly lied in her last
three press conferences
about my leadership. This
has all changed my outlook on running for office.
What she has been saying
is ugly and all filled with
mudslinging and lies.
“The truth needs to be
heard.
“What other clerical
county worker, who is working for her husband, could
come in to work whenever
she wants to? What other
county employee was permitted to not attend work
or work her own hours?”
asks López about her opponent.
“During
my
predecessor’s regime, employees of the department
traveled more than 100,000
miles on the taxpayer’s dollar, flying to Hong Kong,
México, and Las Vegas.
“And they all want to
have their county vehicles
back so they don’t have to
make any car payments and
have all their gas and oil
paid for the taxpayers,” says
López.
López also bristles over
allegations that she has
been slow to reassess property values for taxation.
“When we won the election in 2006, we were
locked out of the office by
Kaczala until the day we
took the oath of office. We
could not get in to immediately start correcting values but had to wait until
after the values had been
submitted to the state. By
December, the taxes were
being prepared and we
couldn’t go back to undo
the damage,” explains
López.
“Every day we still find
more Kaczala errors. We
have already found more
than 70,000 errors and issued millions of dollars of
refunds to citizens. And we
still have another 130,000
properties to go,” she adds.
“I have reduced the staff
of this department by eliminating 20 positions. We
have made the County
Auditor’s office more efficient and a more citizenfriendly department. Our focus is to work with all citizens from all income levels
and backgrounds.
According to Auditor
López, Ohio Law requires
the County Auditor to reappraise all real property every six years and to update
values every three years. In
Lucas County the last revaluation was completed in
2006, with an update in
2009. Consequently, 2012
is a revaluation year.
The purpose of the 2012
revaluation is to equitably
adjust and equalize property values to reflect changes
in the marketplace since
January 1, 2006. Since property values do not change
uniformly, some values have
increased; some stayed the
same,
while
others
have decreased since 2006.
“The office of the Audi-
tor serves everyone, from
the townships to the city.
We have established outreach centers and taken
them to libraries, senior
centers and town halls, and
we will continue to focus
upon making this an office
serving the people and
reaching out to the community,” promises López.
La Prensa sought comment from Gina-Marie
Kaczala for this story and
was contacted by her campaign manager. He refused
to answer any questions regarding nepotism during
the previous administration and asked not to be
quoted or even named in
this story. However, he did
confirm that Mrs. Kaczala
had been fired by Bernie
Quilter but said it was a
“wrongful termination”
and she chose not to sue.
Gina-Marie Kaczala’s
campaign manager again
phoned La Prensa at deadline and asked if he could
rebut any comments made
by López in this article. We
would hope he would do so
and this time use his name.

Ramos and Velásquez, others, inducted into the Ohio Civil Rights Commission Hall of Fame, Oct. 14
Salvador Ramos and
Baldemar Velásquez will be
inducted into the Ohio Civil
Rights Hall of Fame on October 14, 2010, at 10:00AM, at
the Ohio Statehouse Atrium.
Their biographies include:
Salvador Ramos (1939 –
2009): Born and raised in El
Paso, Texas, Salvador Ramos
obtained his bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering from Texas Western College. Following his passion
for serving people, Mr.
Ramos took a position as a
teacher before joining the Air
Force. He was an avid activist for the equal treatment of
Hispanics in military service. He protested inequities against Hispanics and
lobbied for direct hire authority earning him the title
as the first Hispanic Employ-
ment Program Manager at
Wright Patterson Air Force
Base. Mr. Ramos often spent
his personal time educating
Hispanic officers of their rights
and advocating for equal treatment by providing representation to them in the grievance
process. He also advocated for
the promotion of Hispanic employees in the Air Force and
worked diligently to create the
Hispanic engineering recruitment program. Mr. Ramos was
recognized with highest distinction as the Hispanic Employment Program Manager of
the Year. Following his retirement from active duty as Lt.
Colonel, Mr. Ramos went on to
serve as an Air Force Academy
Liaison to Greene County high
schools where he continued
his legacy of civil rights advocacy making special efforts to
recruit minorities and females.
Nominator: L. Tony Ortiz.
Baldemar
Velásquez:
Baldemar Velásquez was born
into a migrant farm worker family in 1947 and began working
on a farm at the age of six. He
graduated with a bachelor’s
degree in Sociology in 1969
and has been an avid activist
for migrant worker rights for
nearly five decades. Mr.
Velásquez has dedicated his
life to working for social justice, dignity, and improved
working conditions for agricultural workers through leadership in organizing and advocacy. Mr. Velásquez has gained
international recognition for
advancing migrant worker
rights around the world although much of his work has
focused on Ohio. In 1978, Mr.
Velásquez led 2,000 workers
in one of the largest agricultural strikes in history when he
called for trade union recognition and was successful in landing a multi-party collective
bargaining agreement. He also
organized movements to successfully negotiate collective
bargaining agreements with
Campbell’s, Heinz, Deans
Foods and Mt. Olive Pickles.
Mr. Velásquez served as an integral force in negotiating the
founding of an independent
labor commission, the Dunlop
Commission, to extend collective bargaining rights to Midwest farm workers for the first
time. Mr. Velásquez currently
serves on the Board of Commissioners for the Ohio Commission on Hispanic/Latino
Affairs and as President of the
Farm Labor Organizing Committee that he helped to form in
1963. Mr. Velazquez is the
recipient of several awards and
honors including an Honorary
Doctorate of Human Letters
from the University Toledo,
Hispanic Leadership Award
from the National Council of
La Raza, and the Midwest
Academy Award for outstand-
ing contributions to social
change. Nominator: Lilleana
Cavanaugh, Ohio Commission on Hispanic & Latino
Affairs (OCHLA).

OBITUARIES
FELIX BARRIENTOS
Felix Barrientos, 86, of Toledo, OH, passed away Thursday, October
7, 2010, at Hospice of Northwest Ohio, in Toledo. He was born in
Edinburg, TX on August 23, 1924, to Demetrio Barrientos and Felipa
Coronado. On May 13, 1945, he married Glafira (née Reyes) Barrientos
and she survives. Felix was a retiree of Libbey Glass since 1987, after
more that 30 years of employment there. He was also an entrepreneur,
at one time running two theatres showing Spanish language movies in
Toledo, where he also ran a billiards hall. His early working years were
as a migrant worker throughout the United States and as a truck driver,
transporting fruit to market. He began his career in Toledo working for the railroad before his
employment at Libbey Glass. Felix played baseball in Erie, Michigan as a young man and
was a lifelong fan of the Detroit Tigers. He always enjoyed music and dancing. In addition
to his wife, Felix is survived by their children: Alma (Ruben) Platas, Anita (James) Mauter,
Alex (Candi) Barrientos, Sandra (Ciro) Caprioli, Felix Barrientos Jr.; grandchildren: Jason
Platas, Angelina (Jeff Heiman) Platas, Enoch (Diana) Platas, Erik (Nancy) Mauter, Christian
and Ashley Mauter, Christy (John) Soncrant, Alexa (Ryan) Eickholt, and Justin Barrientos;
and three great-grandchildren.
BLANCA GRACIA
Blanca R. Gracia (née Otero) 85, of Lorain, OH, passed away surrounded by her family in
her home, Tuesday, October 5, 2010 following a lengthy illness. She was born May 5, 1925
in Morovis, Puerto Rico. She came to Lorain in 1949. Mrs. Gracia was a wonderful wife, mother,
grandmother, great grandmother and a dear friend. “We could not have asked for a better
Mother.”
She was a active member of Sacred Heart Chapel in Lorain since it’s founding in 1952,
where she was a member of the Renovacion Caresmatica, Cursillista, Encuentro Matrimonial,
and Juan XXIII Movement and a neighborhood prayer group. God and her Catholic Faith was
very important in her life. She set a great example to everyone, especially her family.
Blanca enjoyed collecting baby figurines, music and dancing. She enjoyed nature and
sunshine by gardening and walking Oakwood Park and loved laughter.
She will be deeply missed by her son Deacon José A. “Tony” (Teresa) DeGracia of Lorain, her
daughters Lucy (Alfredo) Guzmán and Norma (Tom) Ives both of Lorain, sisters Teresa Otero
of Bronx, New York and Delia Otero of Bayamon, Puerto Rico, her granddaughter Rachel
(Richard) Vaughn of Lorain, her great grandchildren Joseph and Kurt Vaughn both of Lorain,
and numerous nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her husband of 55 years in June of 1999, her parents Manuel

grandchildren Joseph and Marla DeGracia in December of 1996.

Waite and Woodward
reassigned to New Football
Computer Points Regions
Oct. 11, 2010: The
Ohio High School Athletic Association announced Monday that
due to a miscommunication of enrollment numbers provided by Toledo
Public Schools, two member schools – Waite High
School and Woodward
High School – have been
reassigned to new football regions relative to the
computer points used to
determine tournament
participants.
Both schools moved
up a division, with Waite
moving from Division III
to Division II (Region 6),
and Woodward moving
from Division IV to Division III (Region 10).
The two regional reassignments are effective
immediately and will be
reflective in the next computer rating report that was
released Oct. 12. The two
moves not only affect
those two schools and their
tournament region, but
also will slightly increase
the points awarded to the
schools that defeated them
earlier this season.
“Mid-season moves
are rare and have a ripple
effect, but once we determined that an error had
occurred, we needed to
make the correction to ensure that the computer
points were being prop-
erly awarded,” said
OHSAA Assistant Commissioner
Henry
Zaborniak,
the
association’s administrator for football. “Because
of the closing, consolidating and opening of
schools around the state,
we have had more adjustments mid-cycle this year
than ever before.”
Every two years the
OHSAA uses enrollment
data provided by the
Ohio Department of Education to determine the
divisional lines in all
sports. Changes can occur mid-cycle, however,
if schools close or consolidate or new schools
open, in which case the
new enrollment numbers
are provided by the
school district. The
2010-11 school year is
the second year of a twoyear cycle.
Due to this new enrollment recalculation of
the Toledo Public
Schools, each of its
schools received an enrollment increase, but
only Waite and Woodward had their new enrollment number result in
a change of football division. No changes will occur in any other fall
sports, but could be forthcoming in winter or
spring sports.

Port Authority acquires historic
Jeep Parkway property
Oct. 8, 2010: The ToledoLucas County Port Authority
officially acquired the historic
Jeep Parkway property on Fri.,
Oct. 3, 2010 for a purchase
price of $95,000. The 111 acre
site located at 1000 Jeep Parkway will undergo an environmental remediation process
over the next 18 to 24 months,
followed by redevelopment.
At its August 2010 Board
meeting, the Toledo-Lucas
County Port Authority Board
of Directors authorized President and CEO Paul Toth to
enter into an agreement to
acquire the property the owner,
OldCar Co. Liquidating
Trust. The Port Authority is
set to receive a $1.3 million
Housing and Urban Development - Economic Development Initiative grant to cover
some of the expenses associated with this purchase.
Consistent with its mission
in the economic development
delivery system, the Port Authority had been attempting
to acquire the property for several years based on its proximity to I75 and the vast amount
of land available for development. The property is served
by Class I rail, offers easy access to the interstate system,
and is seen by as many as
125,000 passing motorists
each day, providing it to be
attractive to many potential
end users.
“Toledo has a rich manufacturing history and this site
is a prime location for industrial and commercial development. This project benefits

key officials both locally and
nationally. We are very much
appreciative of this support
– without it, this acquisition
would not have come to fruition,” said Toth in a press
release.
Nationally, the project was
supported by the Treasury
Department and the Department of Justice. The Environmental Protection Agency
supported this project both on
the national and state level.
Within Ohio, the project benefitted significantly from the
efforts of the Department of
Development, the University
of Toledo, the Board of Lucas
County Commissioners and
the City of Toledo. U.S. Senator George Voinovich and
Congresswoman Marcy
Kaptur paid particular attention to ensuring the success of
this acquisition.
“The Jeep Parkway acquisition was not a typical real
estate transaction. This acquisition required many different
resources and skill sets from
the diverse team assembled
for this purchase. Specifically,
we must recognize the efforts
of Joel Mazur from the City of
Toledo Environment Services
Department for his diligence
and his assistance in identifying the appropriate EPA assessment grants,” says Matthew Sapara, Toledo-Lucas
County Port Authority Director of Operations and Property
Development.
The Port Authority will be
applying for a Clean Ohio
Revitalization (CORF) Grant
to complete the funding
needed for the remediation of
the property. The CORF grant
awards are announced in the
spring of 2011. In the meantime, specific conceptual development plans will be
drafted.
The Jeep Parkway property
is one of the oldest manufacturing sites in the nation and
has been home to a host of
manufacturing entities. This
site was home to manufacturing that produced much of the
equipment that helped the U.S.
win World War II including
the famous Jeep.

Grant allows Law School Human Trafficking Clinic to open site in México
ANN ARBOR, October
2010: The University of
Michigan’s Law School Human Trafficking Clinic received a $300,000 federal
grant to open a similar clinic
in Mexico next year.
This U.S. Department of
State grant means this new
clinic in Zacatecas, Mexico,
will help victims of human
trafficking, also known as
modern-day slavery. This
crime involves the recruitment, transportation, harboring, or receipt of people for
the purposes of slavery,
forced labor, and servitude.
Human trafficking exists
nationwide and across the
world. It can be found in
many industries: agriculture,
spas and massage parlors,
hotel work, and domestic
service, as well as prostitution.
“By awarding us the
grant, the State Department
acknowledged that the success of our clinic could be
replicated elsewhere,” clinic
director Bridgette Carr said.
“We’re excited about this
new venture and look forward to helping victims in
Mexico.”
U-M’s clinic opened last
fall – the first of its kind at
any U.S. law school. Clinics
allow students to gain practical skills in legal fields, thus
several U-M law students will
travel to México assist in
cases and train the clinic’s
staff.
“Not only do the students
gain valuable advocacy
skills, they have been and
will continue to be instrumental in protecting victims’
rights, in shaping the policy
conversation, and in drafting the language used in
amendments to trafficking
laws,” Carr said.
Effective advocacy involves raising awareness
about human trafficking
among México’s citizens,
law enforcement officials
and other leaders, as well as
victims. The process will take
an undetermined amount of
time, she said.
Carr and law students will
work with non-governmental organization Centro de
los Derechos del Migrante
and law school Universidad
Autónoma de Zacatecas,
Unidad Académica de
Derecho.
Centro de los Derechos
del Migrante (Center for Migrant Rights) is the first
transnational workers’ rights
law center based in México
to focus on U.S. workplace
rights. The non-profit organization is dedicated to improving the working conditions of migrant workers in
the United States through a
four-pronged strategy of outreach and community education, intake and referral,
direct legal services, and
policy advocacy.
“This clinical partnership is an exciting, innovative and true collaboration
between CDM and law
school clinics on both sides
of the US-México border,”
said CDM founder and executive director Rachel
Micah-Jones. “Students
will provide quality legal
representation to vulnerable migrant communities
whose legal needs often
cross borders. In doing so,
students will develop the
skills to be transnational
advocates in this new
economy.”
Carr said Mexico was chosen for the pilot clinic because of a previous relationship with CDM. In addition,
law schools often overlook
program start-ups in México,
opting instead to establish
connections in continents
such as Europe and Africa,
she added.
This is Carr’s second international effort to open a
clinic. Last March, she traveled to Alexandria University to assist with the opening of Egypt’s first law school
legal clinic, which focuses
on human trafficking and domestic violence. She met
with the university’s law students, professors, and administrators to train them in
teaching methods used by
U.S. clinical programs.

Clínica sobre Tráfico
Humano abrirá en
México el próximo año
ANN ARBOR: La Clínica
sobre Tráfico Humano de la
Escuela de Derecho de la
Universidad de Michigan
recibió un subsidio federal
de 300.000 dólares para abrir
el próximo año una sede de
la clínica en México.
La
donación
del
Departamento de Estado de
EEUU significa que esta
nueva clínica en Zacatecas,
México, podrá ayudar a las
víctimas del tráfico de personas, conocido también como
la esclavitud del mundo
moderno. Este crimen involucra el reclutamiento,
transporte, albergue o
alojamiento de personas con
el propósito de someterlas a
la esclavitud, el trabajo
forzado y la servidumbre.
El tráfico humano existe
en todo el país y en todo el
mundo. Puede encontrarse
en muchas industrias como
la agricultura, los clubes de
atención física y salones de
masajes, el trabajo de los
hoteles,
el
servicio
doméstico y también la
prostitución.
“Al otorgarnos la
donación el Departamento de
Estado reconoció que el
éxito de nuestra clínica
puede replicarse en otras
partes”, dijo la directora de
la clínica Bridgette Carr.
“Estamos
muy
entusiasmados acerca de esta
nueva empresa y ansiosos por
ayudar a las víctimas en
México”.
La clínica en EEUU abrió
el otoño pasado (hemisferio
norte), y fue la primera de su
tipo en cualquier escuela de
leyes de Estados Unidos. La
clínica permite que los
estudiantes
adquieran
destrezas prácticas en campos letales, y así varios
estudiantes de leyes de la
UM viajarán a México para
ayudar en casos y dar
capacitación al personal de
la clínica.
“Los estudiantes ganan
destrezas de abogacía que
son muy valiosas y han sido
y
seguirán
siendo
importantes en la protección
de los derechos de las
víctimas, en la conducción
de
la
discusión
y
conformación de políticas, y
en la redacción del lenguaje
que se use en las enmiendas
a las leyes referidas al tráfico
humano”, dijo Carr.
Un esfuerzo eficaz involucra el llamado de atención
acerca del tráfico humano
entre los ciudadanos, las
autoridades policiales y otros
líderes en México como
asimismo entre las víctimas.
El proceso llevará un tiempo
indeterminado, dijo Carr.
Carr y los estudiantes de leyes
trabajarán
con
la
organización
no
gubernamental Centro de los
Derechos del Migrante y con
la escuela de leyes de la
Universidad Autónoma de
Zacatecas,
Unidas
Académica de Derecho.
El Centro de los
Derechos del Migrante es el
primer centro transnacional
de derechos de los
trabajadores con sede en
México que enfoca los
derechos en los lugares de
trabajo estadounidenses. El
grupo, sin fines de lucro, se
dedica a mejorar las
condiciones
de
los
trabajadores migrantes en
Estados Unidos mediante
una estrategia de cuatro
direcciones que incluye la
comunicación y educación
comunitaria, la toma y
referencia de casos, los
servicios legales directos y
la promoción de políticas.
“Esta asociación clínica
es una colaboración
excitante, innovadora y real
entre el CDM y las clínicas
de escuelas de leyes en ambos lados de la frontera
mexicano estadounidense”,
dijo la fundadora y directora
ejecutiva del CDM, Rachel
Micah
Jones.
“Los
estudiantes proporcionarán
una representación legal de
calidad
para
las
comunidades migrantes
vulnerables
cuyas
necesidades legales a
menudo cruzan las fronteras.
Al hacerlo, los estudiantes
desarrollarán las destrezas
para
ser
abogados
transnacionales en esta
nueva economía”.
Carr dijo que se eligió a
México para la clínica piloto
debido a una relación previa con el CDM. Además las
escuelas de leyes a menudo
desechan las iniciativas en
México y optan, en cambio,
por el establecimiento de
conexiones en continentes
como Europa y África,
añadió.
Este es el segundo
esfuerzo internacional de
Carr para la apertura de una
clínica. En marzo pasado,
Carr viajó a la Universidad
de Alejandría para ayudar en
la apertura de la primera
clínica legal de una escuela
de leyes de Egipto, enfocada
en el tráfico humano y la
violencia doméstica. Carr se
reunió con los estudiantes
de leyes, profesores y
administradores de la
Universidad
para
capacitarlos en los métodos
de enseñanza que se usan en
los programas clínicos de
Estados Unidos.

PUBLIC NOTICE
The Lucas Metropolitan Housing Authority, (LMHA), is seeking residential property
owners to attach federally assisted rental subsidies designed for occupancy by
very low or extremely low-income eligible/qualifying families by means of LMHA’s
Project –Based Housing Choice Voucher Program through a Project Based
Contract.
Under the Project Based Voucher - PBV program, HUD allows Housing Authorities
to attach up to 20% of its Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program funding to
specific housing units. LMHA reserves the right to project-base less than the 20%
amount as allowed by HUD. LMHA reserves the right to reduce the number of units
requested for project-based assistance associated with this proposal. LMHA will
project-base no more than 25% of the units in a building unless the remaining units
are “excepted units”. LMHA reserves the right to reject any or all proposals or may
negotiate an award of project-based units of a lesser amount than the original
proposal.
It is the intent of LMHA to approve project-based units that are not located in high
poverty census tracts as determined by the 2000 Census. In the event, however,
a contract is awarded in a high poverty census track, after proposal review,
analysis and possible acceptance of terms and agreements, LMHA reserves the
right to “Request a Waiver” from the Department of Housing and Urban Development
(H.U.D.). High poverty census tracts are geographical areas where 20 percent or
more of households residing in those areas have incomes below poverty income
levels.
Completed proposal submission packages must be received by 5:00 p.m. Eastern
Standard Time, on October 18th, 2010. No proposals will be accepted after this
deadline. LMHA is not responsible for mail service delays. LMHA reserves the
right to reject any or all proposals.
The Request for Proposal – Project Based Voucher (PBV) program is available on
LMHA’s internet web page at http://www.lucasmha.org or can be obtained by
contacting Margaret Miracola at the address listed below.
Proposals must be submitted to:
Margaret Miracola, Director
Housing Choice Voucher Program
Lucas Metropolitan Housing Authority

P. O. Box 0477
Toledo, Ohio 43697-0477
Telephone: 419-259-9456
