WILLIAMSTON — Thecity’s temporary ban on med-ical marijuana businesseshas been extended into Au-gust while the debate abouthow to regulate them con-tinues.
In its meeting last week,the City Council voted to ex-tend the current six-monthmoratorium by another sixmonths so city leaders havetime to decide on perma-nent rules for dispensaries.
The original moratoriumwould have expired Feb.23.
On Jan. 10, the councilapproved the first readingof an ordinance to extendthe moratorium by 90 days.
But on Jan. 24, city staff rec-ommended the extension beincreased to six months be-cause three months may notallow enough time to com-plete an ordinance.
The Planning Commis-sion on Tuesday, Feb. 1 willhear public comment on adraft zoning amendment thatwould allow dispensaries incertain industrial-zoned ar-eas of the city, provided theyare not too close to schools,parks, child care centers andresidential areas.
Under changes requestedby the council, the draft or-dinance would restrict dis-pensaries to the I-2 zoningareas. Those areas are in thenorthern part of the indus-trial park, the southern edgeof the city along I-96 and thenorthwest part of the cityalong West Grand River Av-enue.
But officials still don’tagree on many details, and afinal version might be a long
way off.City officials have been
wrestling with the issue formonths. The process hasbeen delayed in part be-cause the Planning Commis-sion has three vacancies andhad to cancel its Novemberand December meetings forlack of a quorum.
And some officialswarned that a change in CityCouncil appointments couldimpact the planning boardat a critical time in the pro-cess.

WILLIAMSTON — Localofficials were scrambling to
bring the Red Cedar Rec-reation Association (RCRA)under the city’s wing intime for the start of summeryouth programs.
But city officials andRCRA representatives alsowere talking with MeridianTownship officials about analternate arrangementwhere the association wouldoperate under the auspices
of the township.An exploratory meeting
with Meridian was set forlast Wednesday.
#Open dialogueThe township already
runs similar youth recre-ation programs and is opento the idea, officials said.
“We’re just going to havea dialogue about what the
possibilities might be,” saidLuAnn Maisner, the town-ship’s parks and recreationdirector.
Staff time and financesare big issues, Maisner said,and she hadn’t heard whatthe group would need as ofearly last week, she said.
“But I think that for us tonot have this conversationwouldn’t be a smart thing,
either. If there is any waywe can do anything to makethis happen, we would behappy to do that.”
The non-profit RCRA hasprovided activities such asbaseball, football, basketballand cheerleading for hun-dreds of youths each year inthe Williamston area.
The group operated aspart of the Williamston Com-
munity schools until lastMay, when the school dis-trict ended the arrangementbecause of concerns over li-ability and other issues.
RCRA representatives ap-proached the city lastsummer about possibly op-erating under the city’s taxexemption.

nAllsburg, who was appointed alter-nate.
VanAllsburg, who has publicly criti-cized Van Wert in recent months, votedagainst the appointments. The councilapproved them in a 4-1 vote.
The appointments were among sev-eral issues that drew tense exchangesbetween Van Wert and other councilmembers or city staff during an acri-monious meeting that lasted more than
four hours. After a 90-minute discus-sion and two failed votes, the councilapproved a resolution making Nation-al Night Out an annual, city-sponsoredevent. The event was held in Wil-liamston for the first time last year.
The mayor and staff were at oddsover internal protocols and budgetingprocedures.
Another conflict came as the coun-cil approved a contract with the schooldistrict making both of the city’s cross-ing guards employees of the police de-
partment.City Manager Tim Allard and other
council members balked when VanWert proposed a $1-an-hour pay raisefor the guards.
Allard noted that the city has adwindling fund balance and that itsnon-unionized workers haven’t had apay raise for four years. He recom-mended that any raises be consideredat a different time.
Van Wert’s motion to grant the raisefailed.

In recent weeks, a group that in-cluded officials from the city and Wil-liamstown Township and the RCRAhave met twice to work on details. Aschool board member also attendedthe most recent meeting.
An organizational chart presentedto the City Council last week includesa part-time director to run programsand an advisory board that would beappointed by the city Parks and Recre-ation Commission.
Maisner said she offered to consid-er a partnership when two city offi-cials visited her early last week to talkabout running recreation programs
Meridian Township now runs mostof the youth and adult recreation pro-grams in Haslett and Okemos, althoughcompetitive sports programs are stillrun by parents’ groups, she said.
The township is always lookingto cooperate with other communities,she said..
“(But) we don’t have extra staff,and there will be financial consider-
ations,” she said. “We’re not going togo into something to lose money,’ shesaid.
Curtis Zaleski, the RCRA’s presi-dent, said the group is essentially self-supporting and would generate enoughrevenue to pay for a part-time direc-tor.
Whatever happens needs to happenquickly, he said.
“It’s got to be done over the nexttwo or three weeks because we haveour summer program starting, andthat’s our biggest program,” he said.

WILLIAMSTON — Jan-uary is School BoardRecognition Month, andWilliamston CommunitySchools is joining 552 localand 57 intermediate schooldistricts across the stateto thank these communityvolunteers for their dedi-cation to education.
As citizen leaders,school board members aredescribed as having themost important volunteerjobs in the country and fac-ing the toughest challengein elected American gov-ernment.
Yet school board mem-bers are ordinary citizensdedicated to the schooldistrict.
The vital contributionsof these men and womenand the crucial role theseelected public officials playin the education of chil-dren are significant.
The Williamston schoolboard educates the com-munity.
In these difficult eco-nomic times and in a
climate of change and chal-lenge, the members devel-op policies and make toughdecisions on complex is-sues.
They bear responsibili-ty and oversight for an an-nual budget of around $17million, 1,847 students and271 employees.
Although they wearmany hats in the workdayworld, the school boardmembers put on a col-lective hat when they getdown to the business ofleading our school district.
They pull together asa team toward a commongoal: helping studentsachieve.
Their job is to establisha vision for the educationprogram, design a structureto achieve that vision, en-sure schools are account-able to the community andstrongly advocate contin-uous improvement in stu-dent learning.
“We benefit every dayfrom the dedicated ener-gies and countless hours
devoted by the seven boardmembers who serve ourschool district,” said NardaMurphy, Williamston Com-munity Schools superinten-dent.
“These public servantsare elected to serve by ourcommunity and receive lit-tle recognition for the dif-ficult job that they do.
“They are dedicated in-dividuals who are com-mitted to the continuoussuccess of our schools andstudents.”
These men and womenwho are servingWilliamston CommunitySchools and their years ofservice are: Marci Scott,president (eight years); Lar-ry Ward, vice president(eight years); Ernie Gaff-ner, secretary (30 years);Gordon Wenk, treasurer(five years); and trusteesBill Penn (three years),Rhonda Coon (five years)and Charley Hasemann(one year).

Students at WilliamstonMiddle School are not afraidof bullies, and school admin-istrators want to keep it thatway.
Bullying has gained na-tional attention as a realproblem in schools acrossthe nation.
According to the U.S. De-partment of Health and Hu-man Services, 15-25 percentof students report that theyhave been bullied.
The school wants to stayahead of that statistic by en-suring all students are ableto learn in a safe, inclusiveenvironment.
“We’re trying to be proac-tive with our students andteach them what to do ifthey are bullied,” AssistantPrincipal Tania Dupuis said.
“We also want to teachthem what bullying is andhow there are different typesof bullying.”
The middle school ad-ministration has developed aprogram to educate studentsand offer ways to report po-tential bullying behavior.
These efforts will soonbecome part of a district-
wide campaign to preventbullying.
Early basicsAs early as sixth grade,
students learn the basics ofbullying.
They are able to distin-guish what bullying is andhow to deal with it. Thisis especially important be-cause they are starting a newschool with new friends andteachers.
Research shows middleschool is where these be-haviors begin to escalate.
Seventh- and eighth-grade students take it a stepfurther to look at how tech-nology can be used to bully.Increased use of computersand texting on cell phonesmakes it easier for bullyingto occur.
Often, young people maynot even realize that they’redoing it.
“It seems as though that’show the kids interact moreas they get older,” counselorAnne McKinney said.
Teachers are also taughtto spot the signs of bullying.
“We’ve done workshopshere with our teachers inthe past to train them aboutbullying and how they canintervene when they see ithappening,” McKinney said.
So far, response to the an-ti-bullying program has beenvery positive.
Students can fill out asheet, call a number or usean online form to report bul-lying.
“We’re really very fortu-nate here at Williamston thatwe don’t have large issueswith fighting and lots of bul-lying and inappropriate be-haviors,” Dupuis said.
“Still, any of those kindsof things can hurt someone’sfeelings and should be tak-en seriously.
We want to make surethat those don’t happen.”
To report bullying at Wil-liamston Middle School, stu-dents can text or call (517)643-6613 or send an anon-ymous e-mail message atht tp : / /www.gowcs .net /schools/middle/index.html.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Figure skaterHannah Miller won the national title onJan. 24 in the ladies’ novice division atthe U.S. Figure Skating national champi-onships in Greensboro, N.C.
The accomplishment puts the 14-year-old from Williamston one step closer toa possible Olympic bid in 2014, but right
now she’s savoring her come-from-behindwin. “It’s amazing,” she said.
Miller fell during her short program onSunday, which left her in third place.
“My coach was talking to me and wewere just, like, ‘Go for it!’ because therewas nothing to lose,” she said. “I went forit all.” It worked. “She attacked the secondprogram and was really, really spectacu-lar,” said her coach, Kirsten Miller-Zisholz,who also is her aunt.
Miller placed first in the free skate, fin-ishing the competition with a total scoreof 122.30.
That was just 0.45 points ahead ofthe second-place finisher, Barbie Long ofSpringfield, Ill. Mariah Bell of Westminster,Colo., finished third.
Miller’s long program includes severaltriple jumps as well as combinationjumps.
Miller, 14, is an eighth-grader at Wil-
liamston Middle School.She trains six days a week at Suburban
Ice in East Lansing.She was to spend the rest of the week
in Greensboro.She also planned to fit in some home-
work and to attend the junior ladies’ andsenior ladies’ finals.
Senior competitors are familiar Olym-pic names such as Sasha Cohen, RachaelFlatt and Mirai Nagasu.

LAKEWOOD — LaurenEpple led the Lady Hornetsto two big basketball wins togive Williamston a 9-2 sea-son record.
Epple scored 17 pointsand pulled down 13 re-bounds in the Hornets’ 46-34win over CAAC White Divi-sion Lakewood on Jan. 21,and then scored 11 points ina 35-31 nonleague win overHaslett on Jan. 25.
Against Haslett, KelseyErickson broke a 31-all tiein the final minute when she
drove the baseline from theright corner and put in a left-handed layup.
“It was a very nice shotand took a lot of confi-dence,” Williamston coachPete Cool said.
Michaela Marble iced thegame for Williamston whenshe hit a pair of free throwswith time running out. Itwas the only shots that Mar-ble took in the game. Er-ickson scored nine points.Jordan Waters had fivepoints. Kassie Kimichik andAshley Villarreal eachscored three points.
Against Lakewood, the
Hornets took a 15-9 first-quarter lead. Lakewood out-scored Williamston 11-4 inthe second quarter to take aone-point half-time lead.
“We had a really nice firstquarter, then the exact op-posite in the second quar-ter,” Cool said.
Williamston regained itscomposure in the third quar-ter, scoring 13 points toLakewood’s nine.
“It was one of those ‘gut-check’ talks at halftime, andthe girls came out ready toplay,” Cool said. “I was im-pressed with that. We are notone of those powerhouse
‘score 70 points’ in a gametype of team. It’s our defensethat holds us together.”
Williamston continued tokeep Lakewood in check, al-lowing only five points in thefourth quarter.
Cool said the key to theHornet defense is to limitteams to one shot, and makesure they contest the shot.
“When you can do that,your chances of getting thewin go up significantly,” Coolsaid.
Williamston will face De-Witt on Feb. 1 and Portlandon Feb. 4. Both games are atWilliamston.
