A Message from Mayor DeGraw
Dear Neighbors,
I am honored to begin my 13th year as Mayor. Over the past
year, city officials have focused on short and long-term economic
and physical development issues. As it turns out, those efforts
appear to be paying big dividends for our current residents and
those dividends are likely to extend to future generations. From my
perspective, the major changes that are occurring on the edges of
our community are allowing us to invest in improvements across
the entire community. This city continues to work to improve all
levels of service, infrastructure and quality of life. Our community
is stronger and more fiscally secure than I can ever remember.
We are fortunate that even as new development occurs in the
Grandview Yard and along Goodale Boulevard, investment within
the city’s core continues to be strong. Grandview Avenue remains
strong and vital. Much of the investment within the residential
core of the community is going toward remodeling and expansion.
This type of investment will serve to preserve and enhance the
character of our community.
The commitment to invest in our community cannot stop
now. In fact, in many ways we should consider that the cycle of
reinvestment has just begun. Our recent economic development
success is going to allow us to look further into the future to insure
all planning, service and design efforts work to cultivate the visions
and the aspirations of a generation of people who will live and
work here. My biggest goal for the next few years is to undertake
the means to reach out to residents to find out how people are
thinking about our community and what the public preferences
are with respect to how we choose to live. Some of the topics are
likely to include service levels, community character, sustainability,
multi-mobility, street character, civic facilities and recreational
programming. I intend to hold community/neighborhood
informational meetings throughout the year, so please sign-up to
be notified of the various gatherings. I would love to hear from you
in person. Again the purpose is to talk about and describe the city
of the future while at the same time taking care of more immediate
needs.
By the time this letter gets out, our city pool designers will be
close to beginning construction documents in anticipation of
a mid-August construction start. Wallace Gardens/McKinley
Park Improvement Plan will be on the agenda of the Grandview
Heights’ Park Board. Meetings will be held on February 11th and
March 10th in City Hall at 7:00 p.m. Both meetings will focus on
specific design details that will be included within the schematic
plan presented last fall. Residents are encouraged to attend. Results
of the meetings will be posted on the city web site.The Mayor’s
Traffic Advisory Committee will continue to meet throughout the
year. The committee did some great work in devising standards
and principles by which the city, if warranted, can address traffic
concerns. The plan shows how the city will respond to complaints,
how the issue will be measured and what types of measures the city
may utilize to solve an identified problem. We will also continue
to monitor the impact of traffic on our streets as new residential
and commercial development occurs inside and around our
community.
The committee did more than just look at traffic. A new bike
plan will be forwarded to city council. The plan identifies preferred
routes and shows how bike riders will be accommodated at
signalized intersections especially when the rider has to cross the
street to get to a path on the other side of the street. The group
is also focused on pedestrians ensuring that Grandview Heights
remains a comfortable and safe city in which to walk.
There will be a great deal of street and utility construction
underway this year. Some of the work will present short term
inconvenience to residents and motorists. The city is making an
effort to provide weekly construction progress updates on all the
projects once underway. Please see the information below and
take advantage of the various web-based ways you can receive this
information. Those residents and businesses (and schools) who are
directly impacted by a particular phase of a project will be given
direct notices at least a week ahead of scheduled work.
Finally, I would like to congratulate Council Member Steve
Gladman on his reelection. I also welcome Emily Keeler, our
newest Council Member. I look forward to working with Steve
Reynolds who is our newest past Council Member. I know they
will work hard for the residents of our community. I would also
like to thank Edward Hastie III and Tim Galvin for the work they
have done on council and wish them all the best in the future.
Sincerely,
Mayor Ray E. DeGraw

Grandview Heights Library Offers Free WiFi in Parks
The Grandview Heights Public

and funded with a grant from the
Grandview Public Library Foundation’s
Endowment Fund, has teamed up with
the Parks and Recreation Department

In addition to providing a valuable

responders in the event of a local
disaster.
“The Foundation is thrilled to
support a project that further extends
the reach of the Grandview Library,”
said Foundation Board President
Krista Sturbois. “It seemed like
the next logical step in connecting
the community, and we support it
wholeheartedly.”
“We could not have asked for more
enthusiasm and support for this
project from the City of Grandview
Heights,” Grandview Heights Public
Library Director Ryan McDonnell
said. “It is a terrific example of the
community coming together.”
Free WiFi is currently available at
Pierce Field Park and the Municipal

to bring WiFi online at McKinley Field

Wallace Gardens and McKinley Field Improvements
The City of Grandview Heights
was approached in 2015 by a possible
donor, interested in helping with
improvements to the Wallace Gardens
property. The city began exploring
the possibilities, along with POD
Design, shortly thereafter. A public
engagement meeting to solicit feedback
and ideas on the early concepts was
held on September 17th, 2015. By
then, the design began to encompass
portions of McKinley Field Park as
well. In early 2016, it was determined
that the gardens design should
also include a Goodale Boulevard/
Grandview Avenue intersection
component, a “Gateway” design. As
of the time of this writing, public
meetings have been scheduled for
February 11th and March 10th, during
Parks Advisory Board meetings, and
in concert with members of the city’s
“Character Framework for Community
Investment” study committee. It is
expected that a more detailed plan will
be available for public review by the
March 10th meeting.
The conceptual plan for Wallace
Gardens and McKinley Field includes
several new features:
• An open air pavilion, possibly
a gazebo, on the east side of the
plots. This pavilion would create a
shaded spot for gardeners to relax,
a place to enjoy lunch, a place for
weddings, or a space for more formal
programming, which could include
a Farmer’s Market, community
theatre, or musical performances.
The pavilion would be supported
by an area just to its south of a
permeable brick plaza, which could
be further space used for a market,
staging area for other programming,
or even parking. To its north and
east there would be a terraced
amphitheater-style lawn built into
the hillside. This seating/terraced
area could be further enhanced with
stone or concrete retaining walls. A
pedestrian walk that could also act
as a one way loading drive would
connect the permeable plaza area to
the entrance driveway.
• On the south side of the garden plots,
we propose a permeable brick drive
aisle and turn-around associated
with a grass paver parking bay.
This would permit additional and
improved parking opportunities for
the gardens, as well as for over-flow
parking for adjacent McKinley Field.
• A City of Grandview Heights
gateway feature would be
constructed at the northeast corner
of the property (the southwest
corner of the Goodale Boulevard/
Grandview Avenue intersection).
This feature could be pergola-like.
It could also define the entrance
into the Gardens. This same design
could be repeated or complimented
on the NE (Wyman Woods) corner
and SE (Grandview Center) corner to
complete a “gateway” look.
• Additional pedestrian walkways
that not only provide beautiful views
of Wallace Gardens but also provide
connectivity between the gardens
and McKinley Field and other nearby
civic spaces.
• Signage, possibly mounted on a
stone or other natural material
wall, which would not only identify
donors to the project, but could also
interpret the history and meaning of
the Wallace Gardens property.
• An updated McKinley Field shelter,
which would include new exterior
materials to reflect recent design at
Pierce Field and Wyman Woods
• Bocce courts
• A “Nature Play” area, based on
heavy timber, boulders, vegetation
and primarily other natural elements
• Other proposed amenities include
an educational historical timeline
of Grandview Heights and park
lighting.

Pool Design and
Construction Updates
advertised a Request for Qualifications
in April of 2015 for design firms
interested in designing a new
municipal pool. The RFQ process,
guided by the city’s Parks Advisory
Board, culminated in 7 firms
submitting. The Parks Advisory Board
selected 4 of the firms as finalists and
conducted interviews with them.
From the interviews, the board
recommended that the city hire MSA
Sport architects as the design team.
Two pool design workshops for
the public, conducted by the city and
MSA were held in late 2015 (October
28th and December 9th). MSA also
solicited ideas regarding design and
programming from members of
the city administration, Parks and
Recreation Department staff, and pool
staff. The community was also invited
to email design preferences to the parks
department directly. The December
9th workshop was especially wellattended and received. Participants
were divided into groups and provided
with “playing cards” which represented
available pool amenities. The cards
also had values for relative costs and
space requirements, and each group
kept a scoresheet to stay within space
and budget restrictions as they made
their selections. There were consistent
and helpful reports from each of the
6 groups who worked on the project,
indicating a desire for substantial
“open water” space, both 1-meter
and 3-meter diving boards, a slide,
a separate “tot” pool, a concession
stand, and for a new building that
could be relocated for better use of
the space, that would never-the-less
pay tribute to the current building
through design and materials. Other
concepts receiving substantial interest
were zero-depth entry, a climbing wall,
shade trees and night lighting.
The city also began pursuit of
a “construction manager at risk”
firm that would be paired with the
architect so that the pool could be
built via the CMaR model: rather
than the traditional “design/bid/
build” concept, the architect and
construction manager create a team
early in the design process to promote
their working together. Having the CM
available during the design typically
insures a project with fewer change
orders, a quicker construction period,
and reduced cost during construction.
The CMaR becomes responsible for
bidding out sub-contractor work,
and can select the subs on their
qualifications. The CMaR is also
responsible for offering the owner a
“guaranteed maximum price.” After
advertising a Request for Proposals in
November of 2015, the city received
5 submissions and in early January
of 2016, the Parks Advisory Board
selected 4 of the 5 submitting CMaR
firms for an interview. After the
interviews, the board recommended
the selection of Corna-Kokosing as the
CMaR. At the time of this writing, we
are completing contract details with
Corna-Kokosing and preparing to get
them working directly with MSA prior
to the next and final public pool design
workshop.
The design workshop remains TBA
at this time, but is expected to be in
late February or early March. Watch
the Tri-Village News and the city’s
website (www.grandviewheights.org)
for further updates.
The 2016 pool season will end
on Sunday, August 14th, just as the
Grandview schools prepare to re-open, to
allow a few extra weeks to complete the
work on a new pool facility. Demolition
of the existing facility and construction
of the new pool will begin shortly
thereafter. We look forward to a new
pool facility in the spring of 2017! 25
Grandview Urban Forestry
is fortunate to have a beautiful
and diversified urban forest. Tree
maintenance has been part of
Grandview for many years and
is regulated by ordinance. Public
trees are an asset from which we
all benefit. They provide many
economic, environmental and social
benefits in addition to improving
the overall image and appearance
of the city. The majority of trees
between the sidewalk and curb are
public trees although this may vary.
Our tree program covers all
aspects of urban tree care. We
conduct inspections on a yearly
basis to locate clearance problems
(i.e. limbs blocking traffic signage,
lighting, walks or street right-ofway), hazards, as well as future
planting sites. The majority of the
work is performed during the winter
months, with the remainder being
completed during the summer. Any
trees removed during this process
are replaced the following fall.
Most work is performed after
notification with the exception of
some clearance issues. Any resident
wishing to maintain a city tree or
excavate on public right-of-way
adjacent to a tree must first contact
the city arborist (Ordinance 921.07).
Any special requests or concerns
should be forwarded to the Parks
and Recreation office. Tree removals,
pruning and plantings on city right-
of-way are done at no charge.
Each year we have a tree sale
where trees can be purchased for
public or private property. Any
trees intended for the public rightof-way must be pre-approved.
Permits are available at no cost,
at the Parks and Recreation
Office and must be submitted and
approved prior to planting. This
allows us to suggest proper plant
selection, and to avoid future
tree and utility conflicts. Trees
can also be purchased as a way of
memorializing a person or event.
The City of Grandview Heights has
been a Tree City USA for 32 years
and looks forward to continuing this
tradition of excellence.

If you have not been treating your Ash tree it

Ash trees will be dead or dying in 2016. Please
remember that removing trees before they
are completely dead can be much safer and
cheaper to remove. Always get multiple quotes

2016 Street Sweeping
Weather permitting, street sweeping
is tentatively scheduled for early
Spring. The exact dates will be
advertised in the This Week Tri-Village
News.
Your compliance with the “no
parking” signs for street sweeping is
critical to enable the City to remove
debris from the gutters and streets,
which, if allowed to accumulate,
contributes to localized flooding.
Spring Clean Up
The city will collect bulk items
FREE OF CHARGE from May 10–13
for residents of Grandview Heights
and Marble Cliff. Residents with alley
service should place their items next to
the alley, without alley service should
place their items at the curb on your
regular trash day only. To assist the
Service Department, please place small
loose items inside containers for easier
disposal.
No Construction Debris or Soil is Accepted
This is an annual, one week
opportunity to dispose of large,
unwanted items at no charge to you,
so do your spring cleaning early and
take advantage of this opportunity
to keep our community beautiful! If
you have questions, please contact
the Grandview Heights Service
Department at (614) 488-4728.
Springtime and
Stormwater Runoff
Hazardous Household
Materials
As winter months give way to
spring, remember that rainy weather
washes accumulated pollutants from
your property down the storm drains,
directly to our streams and rivers.
Each resident can make a difference by
reducing salt usage on sidewalks and
driveways as much as possible. In the
springtime, consider options that will
limit your use of pesticides, herbicides
and fertilizers while maintaining
your lawn and garden. Remember:
everything washed or thrown into
a storm drain flows directly to our
streams and rivers.
Help protect Ohio’s water resources.
Ensure that only stormwater is
entering our storm system, and become
part of the stormwater pollution
solution in your neighborhood! To
report a water pollution concern or
localized flooding problem, please call
the service director at (614) 481-6208.
For disposal of paint, and other
hazardous household materials
not listed above, please contact the
Solid Waste Authority (SWACO)
at (614) 871-5100 for a schedule of
drop-off locations. S.W.A.C.O. will
not accept: appliances, tires, trash,
propane tanks (over 20 lbs.) asbestos,
needles, medical waste, used oil, car
batteries, household cleaners and
latex paint. Latex paint, when dried,
is not considered hazardous and can
be disposed in your bagged and tied
trash. If the latex paint is not dried,
stabilize it with kitty litter or sawdust
before disposing of in the trash. Visit
www.swaco.org for more information.
