    Construction projects continuing

    Williams St. reopening soon

    Melinda Krick/Paulding County Progress

    Three-year-old Ashtyn Madden grabbed his toy shovel to help workers at a construction site on Main Street in Paulding lastweek. Over recent months, crews have been busy at many sites, working simultaneously on two major projects.

    By MELINDA KRICK Progress Editor

    PAULDING – Six months after the or-ange barricades and “Road Closed” signs

    began appearing around Paulding, it seemslike the number of projects is multiplying.Residents are left to wonder ... when will theconstruction end? There’s good news and bad news. First the good: Williams Street (U.S. 127)north of the square is set to reopen no laterthan Oct. 31. That means that local drivers and through

    passenger traf c no longer will have to usealternate routes in town, including EmeraldRoad, Main Street, Cherry Street and Wal-nut Street. Trucks won’t have to use thestate-designated detour. The “bad” news is that some constructionwill continue until next summer and a new

    project was set to begin this week. Phase 2 of Paulding Village’s combinedsewer over ow (CSO) project – which is

    separating the storm sewer from the sanitarysewer – must be done by June 1, 2016. OnceWilliams Street reopens, work will move tosome side streets, including Walnut, Bald-win and Main. Crews will work all winter, as long as theweather allows, to meet the deadline, saidMayor Greg White. Contractors are current-ly working on Saturdays. The project was delayed this spring dueto unusually wet weather for several weeks.White said that Labor Day had been the

    original target date for completing WilliamsStreet. At the same time as the CSO project,work has been proceeding on a Safe Routes

    to School project that involves EmeraldRoad, North Water Street and North MainStreet. Corey Howell is project supervisor forVTF Excavation, which is working on boththe Safe Routes and the CSO construction.He said the Safe Routes project in Pauldingshould be completed in the next couple ofweeks. It had been scheduled to be done be-fore the new school year. The rainy spring months caused some de-lay in the CSO project, but Howell pointedout that crews have been able to make upsome time in recent weeks.

    Many residents in the village have voiceddispleasure in how many streets are closedand the rerouting of traf c continues to cre-ate an inconvenience for those attempting toget from one end of town to the other.

    “It’s the nature of the project and there isno way of getting around it. There is a pro-cess to follow and that is what we are do-ing,” Howell said. Howell explained in a telephone conver-sation that its not as easy as completing asection and then moving on to the next one.

    “Once a section of sewer is completedthen it’s important and necessary to move tothe next section that ties in with the previousone. The step-by-step process may requirethat several different streets be closed at the

    same time in order to complete the projectand then tie it all back together,” commentedHowell. “It’s going to take some time. We’re tak-

    ing care of our failing infrastructure,” saidCouncil President Roger Sierer. “Peoplehave to trust we’re doing the right thing forour future.” Crews are lling in trenches and patchingareas on Williams Street to ready it for traf-

    c. “We are working hard to get WilliamsStreet completed in order to have that longstretch of street open,” Howell said. Ohio Department of Transportation is

    planning to repave the Williams Streetsometime next year. Portions of Emerald Road damaged byconstruction have been “trench repaired”and some areas will be patched with asphalt.However, there are no plans at present to re-

    pave. The village is looking into grant fund-ing for such a project. In an entirely separate project, repaving

    was scheduled to start Oct. 5 on GasserRoad (Road 144) west of U.S. 127, and on North Walnut Street between Baldwin Ave-nue and North Drive. Sierer noted that Paulding Village maycommence Phase 3 of the sewer separation

    project. Of cials would like to delay untilthey are certain the infrastructure completedso far is working properly. Phase 3 wouldhave to be done by 2018, but the village mayapply for an extension. – Additional reporting by Joe Shouse.

    Cemetery workis appreciatedDear Editor, I am expressing apprecia-tion to Kim Sutton becauseshortly after the letter she

    placed how terrible Live OakCemetery was (“Preserving

    Live Oak Cemetery,” Prog-ress, Sept. 9) , I saw the lift

    truck in the cemetery placingthe Snook stone on its base.This stone was laying on theground for about three yearsand of course, no relativeswere still alive. I noticed trees cut andstumps ground out. Now,next to some old stones in theolder part, trees/bushes [are]growing out and of course,this will tip the stones also. Next, Kim, see if you canmove the cemetery board toget drainage across the drivefrom the Snook stone, as thisspring, water stood for twoweeks after rain stopped andI mean deep water on thegraves. I thought the money takenin for buying graves was whatwas set aside to keep the cem-etery cleaned up. Kim, you are a leader andI wish we could get moreyoung people with helping dothese things. I thought “community ser-vice” for the people on DUI’smeant working out like this,

    but I guess I don’t understandwhat “community service”is. I know years ago, the

    fellas were at the fairground painting the grandstand andrepairing it as my father-in-law would enjoy watchingthe fellas work and most weremore pleased to spend theirtime out of doors and not do-ing exercising in the building.

    Correction In last week’s edition of the Progress an incorrect incometax renewal levy for Wayne Trace Local Schools was printed.It should actually be in the amount of 0.75 percent, which willgenerate $846,000 annually. Those funds received through thelevy is used for operations at 70 percent and the other 30 per-cent for improvement projects. We regret this error.

    I owe you a penny When I end my columnswith, “I’ll give you a Pennyfor Your Thoughts” if I eversee you, I will do just that. I

    began writing this column af-ter the death of my mama. Shewas not only my mother, butmy closet and dearest friend. My mama always had a

    penny on her or was alwayslooking for a penny. She usedto play “hide the penny” withmy kids when they were littleand when she was ill I usedto hide pennies in her roomin the extended care facility.Anything at all having to dowith a penny, I still think ofmy mom. Since her passing, I havefound pennies in strange plac-es and also those I nd aresometimes very unexpected.I always think that if I nda penny it is a penny fromheaven and I say, “Thank you,Mom.” I will admit, sometimes mythoughts are not worth a pen-ny, but yours are. It is always

    fun to get readers’ opinionsand feedback. A lot of topicsI write about are things thatI wonder about, heard aboutor sometimes I actually do

    nd out something and liketo share it with readers. I willshare two recent letters that Ireceived. Here is a note from one ofour readers concerning the

    penny column on hitch hiking: “Yes, Nancy I have hitchhiked and pick up a hitch hik-er not too long ago. “As a teenager back in theday, my two girlfriends (youknow one of them, infact related to you, guess

    who??) and I hitchhiked toPaulding one hot summernight, don’t ask me why. Just

    being kids, I suppose. Ev-

    erything in town was closed,even the Gaiety Bar – tellsyou how long ago – of courseI don’t know what we weregoing to, just bored, I guess.We started walking back anda semi driver stopped and

    picked us up, took us to 127and 613 crossroads. He wasa nice guy, probably lonelyand helping us out at such anearly morning hour. Don’t askme why? Couldn’t tell you but when we see each other,we always ask, rememberwhen we......? I, also, picked up a hitch-hiker not too long ago. I hadsome business to attend toin De ance. I saw this guystanding along the road atthe ramp on 24. I thought tomyself, if he is still standingthere when I get done, ‘I’m

    picking him up.’ Guess what,he was and I did. He was inDe ance picking up medsfrom the doctor at the hos-

    pital. I even offered him mylunch from Burger King, hesaid ‘No, thank you. You have

    restored my faith in mankind,do you know I saw my land-lord go by and he didn’t evenstop.’

    “He only wanted to go 14miles and it was on my way.You know, GOD sends angelsdown, you never know whoyou may be helping, an angel,

    bad guy or just a regular per-son. I don’t make a habit of it

    but since he was still standingthere, I gured – a test forkeeping (thought) my word. “He was a nice guy, didn’teven ask him h is name. We

    just talked and he thanked mefor ‘restoring his faith in man-kind.’ Just wanted a penny!”

    Victoria Weisgerber Another nice letter camefrom Ann Plummer, who likedthe history of the song, “It is

    No Secret.” “Hi Nancy, I read yourarticle in the Paulding paperabout ‘It is no Secret.’ I reallyenjoyed the history of thesong and I was surprised thatJohn Wayne was the friendand Billy Graham was the

    preacher. I shared it withseveral of my friends. I reallyenjoy your articles. Keep upthe good work.” Your friend,

    Ann Plummer Thanks to these readers whotook the time to send thesenotes. I do have current things I amwondering about. They include:Why do some birds sit back-wards on a wire? How did theymake all the sound effects inthose old radio shows? And, I have observed somenew and exciting products onTV that are guaranteed to makeus look younger (that I may

    buy). Are your thoughts worth a

    penny? Have you ever played

    “Hide the Penny?” Do youthink pennies come from heav-en? Let me know and I will giveyou a Penny for Your Thoughts.

    The purpose of grass waterways A grass waterway, such as this one within a corn eld, can reduce soil erosion and runoff.

    By Staci MillerEducation specialist

    Paulding SWCD

    Grass waterways are a conservation practicethat landowners can implement to help improvethe environment and prevent further gully erosion. A grass waterway is a shaped or graded channelthat is established with suitable vegetation to carrysurface water at a non-erosive speed to a stableoutlet. The bene ts of a grass waterway includereduced soil erosion, sedimentation and pollutionfrom dissolved and sediment-attached substances. Grassed waterways must be vegetated, accord-ing to NRCS Conservation Practice Standard Crit-ical Area Planting. Species selected will be suitedto the current site conditions and intended uses.Selected species will have the capacity to achieveadequate density, height, and vigor within an ap-

    propriate time frame to stabilize the waterway. It is important to establish vegetation as soonas conditions permit. In order to help the vegeta-tion get established, the use of mulch, nurse crop,

    rock, straw or hay bale dikes, fabric checks, lterfences, or runoff diversion will help to protect thevegetation until fully established. Planting of a close-growing crop, such as small

    grains, on the contributing watershed prior to con-struction of the grassed waterway can also sig-ni cantly reduce the ow through the waterway

    during establishment. Once the vegetation is established, a regularmaintenance plan is important to have in place tosustain the grass waterway. The management planincludes avoiding the use of herbicides that candestroy or damage the vegetation in the waterway. Avoid using waterways as turn-rows duringtillage and cultivation operations or crossing thewaterway with heavy equipment as it could dam-age the vegetation. Another management practice is the regularmowing or periodic grazing of vegetation, whichwill help to maintain capacity and reduce sedi-ment deposition. The grass waterway may also need supplemen-tal nutrients or fertilizers to maintain the differ-ence species of vegetation and to keep are strongstand of density in the waterway. There are many different bene ts to incorporat -

    ing a grass waterway into a farming operation, butit is important to contact a local Natural ResourceConservation Service (NRCS) to help landownersdetermine the speci c needs of their property.

    We Salute Paulding County 4-H DuringNational 4-H Week - October 4-10

    Paulding County 4-H teams up with the PauldingCounty Master Gardeners. Rayni was the rst PauldingCounty Junior Master Gardener. The Junior Master Gar-deners work beside the Master Gardeners to completecommunity service projects in our communities. Manyof the ower gardens and ower pots on display in ourcommunities are taken care of by our Master Gardenersand Rayni is proud to be a part of it all. This is another

    example of how 4-H gives back to the community.

    Pictured here are 4-H members planting owers at the Paulding County Fairgrounds just before the start ofthe Paulding County Fair. 4-H members take pride in the work that they are able to do for others and this is noexception. All 4-H youth in Paulding County are given many opportunities to lend a hand wherever they maybe needed.

    4-H builds con dence. The climbing wall, otherwiseknown as “Tower of Power” at 4-H Camp Palmer givesyouth the chance to conquer their fears while their peersare on the ground providing support and encouragement.Many activities at 4-H Camp Palmer are designed to chal-lenge the youth to believe in themselves as well as thepower of teamwork.

    4-H youth are given multiple opportunities toparticipate in public speaking situations. Pub-lic speaking is one of the most dif cult tasks forpeople and 4-H is designed to build the con-

    dence of our youth to be comfortable whilespeaking publically. Pictured above is AbramKlopfenstein (left) with his brother, JacobKlopfenstein (right). Abram participated in thePaulding County 4-H Public Speaking compe-tition and received a chance to participate atthe State 4-H competition where he receivedan Outstanding of the Day. Abram discussedthe importance of lawn mower safety duringhis presentations.

    4-H supports the community. Community service and givingback is a staple in the Paulding County 4-H program. Picturedabove are 4-Her Laura Thornell (left) with her father, Jay Thor -nell (right). This picture was taken during the ooding events inJune in which our 4-H members were called upon to ll sand -bags to help our communities. Filling sandbags, washing retrucks, cleaning parks, and preparing care packages for shut-insare just a few of the many activities that 4-H youth participate into give back to the community that supports our organization.

    4-H teaches youth to care for more than themselves. Caringfor others, animals, and our environment is what drives 4-H. 4-Hyouth are given the opportunity to raise and care for a large num-ber of animals during their 4-H careers. Youth are taught theappropriate ways to treat and manage their livestock as well aswhat it takes to produce quality food for the market. The caringand compassion is shown as this youth takes the time to wash

    her feeder calf before her show at the Paulding County Fair.

    4-H teaches about the environment and all creaturesthat can be found while exploring the environment.Pictured above are 4-H youth learning about reptilesand amphibians. 4-H teaches youth about the impor-tance of being good stewards of the earth.
