Each would have generat­ed approximately $570,000 a year for the school district.

A total of $48 voters said “no” to an additional mill for the sinking ftind for 10 years, while 039 supported the* measure.

The recreation millage — with . the acronym S.C.C.O.R.E. standing for Senior Citizens and Chelsea Organize Recreation and Enrichment — was intended to support the Chelsea Senior Center, recreation and school activity fields, the swimming pool and two audi­toriums, enhance recreation programming and provide for future needs.

The measure 549, however.

The school board was tak­ing a recess from Monday’s board meeting at Pierce Lake Elementary School when Teresa Zigman, execu­tive director of business and operations, announced the results.

“Obviously,; we’re? disap­pointed with the results,” Killips said Tuesday. “We will go back and look at the needs that still exist.”

Community Education Director Jeff Rohrer said Tuesday that a lot of people worked hard to inform the community about the. school district’s needs,

“I’m sure they’re disap­pointed,” Rohrer said.

“The recreation millage, was a new concept that tried to meet a variety of.needs in our growing community,” he said. “The sinking fund

died 1,036- would have allowed us . to continue to maintain our

buildings without using edu­cation dollars for major repairs and thaintenance.

“We still have those needs. I’m not sure what we will do to address those areas at a time wheh Lansing is talking about cuts to education.” ?

Board President Scott- Broshar said school officials. will have to re-evaluate the direction ini which the school district is hoping to progress.

“As we evaluate future improvements to the district, the burden will: undoubtedly fall on private fund-raising efforts father than through tax collection," Broshar said;

“While the: results are die-. appointing, I can certainly understand people’s con­cerns with the current state of. the economy,” he said. “Hopefully, the economy will improve, and people will feel able to support the schools in the future.”

Broshar said a lot of volun­teers worked on committees to promote the millages and their efforts are appreciated.

“I’d like to thank all of the people who put such an effort Into planning and con­ducting the. millage cam­paign,” he said. “The board sincerely appreciates thbir e^orts.”'" ;' 'y‘-

The Arctic Coliseum Ice Arena on Coliseum Drive in Chelaea;: was evacuated fuhBday evening after'two workersaccjdentally mixed

overcom e by fum escleaning agents, creating toxic fumes.

Chelsea Fire. Chief Dan Ellen wood said yesterday that 10 firefighters: respond­ed at 9:96 p,m. .

Two workers,. Timothy Smashey and Nate Dawson, had apparently mixed bleach and a corrosive floor cleaner, Ellenwood said.

“When the fumes started,

they mahaged to get out of the room, but they had already got a good dose of it,” Ellenwood said,

Ellenwood said the men were having difficulty brea­thing and were taken to the University of Michigan Hos­pital to be checked out. .

Ellenwood said the build­

ing was evacuated and aired out

Arctic Coliseum general ^manager Don Wright said yesterday that Smashey and Dawson were released after a checkup and are doing well.

SEARCHING YOUR VEHICLEIf you give consent to a search of

your vehicle, the police need neither a w am utt nor probable cause and can take custody of evidence obtained. If you donVgive consent, remember that the expectation of privacy in a vehicle is less than in ; your home. A law enforcement officer, therefore, is per. mitted to conduct a warrantless search of a vehicle if there is probable cause. T h is exists when the facts and the cir* cumstances would cause a reasonable person to believe that evidence o f a crim e could be located in the area to be searched. With probable cause, the. police may search any area of the vehi* cle w here probable cause leads them to believe that evyencem ay.be. found. .

M uch has been said about the high incidence of unwarranted pulling over

of people of color for questioning' and unjustified searches (this pattern of behavior is often referred to as DW B,l.e. “driving while black"). If you have concerns regarding what you believe to be an illegal search,, and would like to discuss your legal fights and options, call the LAW OFFICES O F K ITCH EN & STRING ER, J.D ., at 426-4695 to schedule a compfimenta* ry consolation. You’ll find our offices' located in Dexter, a t 3249 Broad Street. We also handle cases involving criminal defense.

HIN1Y In addition to a probable cause search, any time the. police see evidence of a crim e in “ plain, view" they, can immediately seue> the evi> dencO without a warrant.

■ Decision on condo project postponed.By Michael RybkaSpecial Writer

The Chelsea Village Planning Commission dis-

cussed public parks in com­mercial zones and a prelimi­nary site plan for a condo­minium project.

Planners held a public hearing Sept. 17 regarding a text change to its ordinance

and how to admit public parks in commercial dis­tricts.

The public hearing ad­dressed whether a public park should be listed as a land use within certain com­

mercial districts. The sugges­tion originated from the Village Council. Currently, a special land-use permit is required for parks,

No one from the public spoke at the hearing.

ZONINGContinued from Page 1 -A .

Rode, Ann Feeney, Marilyn Mink and Vincent Elie were against it.

Through a'purchase agree­ment, a developer has been working with, the village for more than two years on a planned-use development plan that would.allow him to build 352 detached residen­tial units on the combined 157.25 acres.

Approximately a dozen people showed up for a pub­lic hearing the Planning Commission held last week. The number in attendance was considerably lower than at past meetings related to the issue.

Former Lima Township Planning Commissioner Mar­

gin Carlson, who owns neigh­boring property, said he believes the low turnout is the result of the public’s per­ception that it has no say-so over the property.

Carlson said the developer is in the process of amending his plan and zoning'it resi­dential would, weaken the commission’s leverage to negotiate specifications '

Chelsea resident Bill Aldrich asked why residen­tial zoning was being consid­ered given that he has notheard anyone besides those on the commission and involved with the project in favor of the move.

Aldrich said that residents who move into the proposed new subdivision would likely use East Middle Street via McKinley Street and it would create an intolerable traffic situation. He also said the development would impact the school system.

Chelsea. resident Bob . Houle said he is against any

proposal to extend the dead­end street he lives on into the development He said a traf­fic study should be required before the first phase of development.

Former Lima Township Supervisor Gary Adams, whose property abuts to the east of the 40.25 acres, said he is in favor of residential zoning because it makes practical and legal sense. .

Adams said he has been - concerned about the “unzoned”, designation. He said he has never seen a legal definition of the term, but he wouldn’t be surprised if it meant that someone could do whatever he or she wanted with the property.

Rode said the PUD desig­nation the commission had already recommended to the Village Council was the equivalent of residential zon­ing, He said returning the land to agricultural would change the underlying calcu­lations the developer used for density. ’

Kinzer said the developer has laid low for six months because he is waiting for the

commission to rezone it resi­dential tp his advantage. He said agricultural zoning would allow the commission to retain some leverage.

Kinzer said the Village Council has not approved the PUD, so it’s a good time to step back. He also said there is no reason to allow the mas­ter plan to become a “suicide pact” and suggested it should be amended.

Village Planning and Zoning Officer Jim Drolett reminded Kinzer that while the council has not yet approved the PUD, it hasn’t denied it, either.

Rode said he does not think the village would gain any type of advantage by zon­ing it agricultural. "7

Soule said agricultural zoning would make Sense because the master plan refers to the area as a “rural; corridor.” She said that in the future a new zoning des­ignation such as “open space” could be applied to the property.

Rode said a rural corridor is interpretive and Soule’s implied definition only serves to show a flaw in the master plan because it deems that stretch of Dexter- Chelsea Road a rural corri­dor, while the whole-area has been envisioned for fiiture residential needs.

Rode said agricultural zon­ing would lead to a “slam- dunk court case” that would only be made easier if

„ as bait and toiletries to vaca­tioners visiting Cavanaugh Lake.

The store has seen many owners in its 81 years, and has been kept in the hands of- local families, Carruthers said.

Now Bob and Julie Stanley wilt move into the space and continue the retail tradition.

“Things will continue to run like what Walt and Sandy had at their place,” Julie Stanley said.

Sandy Zeeb said Monday

that she and Walt have been considering retiring for a while. The couple have run the greenhouse since 1960.

Teresa Zigman* executive director of business and operations, recently conduct­ed a walkthrough of the Washington Street Education Center with Ron Llvengood, director of operations, and Community Education Director Jeff Rohrer.

“We. began the process of assessing the use of the buildings on the WSEC cam­pus,” Zigman said Monday.

“We documented the use of each room within each build­ing in an attempt to look for

; potential reductions in costs; by closing specific buildings, or potential revenue sources by leasing or renting rooms.”

The original buildings at the old high school opened in the 1958-59 year, and includ­ed the building that current­ly houses Community Education.

A locker building Was tom down about five years ago to create a parking lot. The sci­ence building originally had four rooms and is now the pre-school.

The 300 building, which houses the Alternative High School, was originally half the size and was an industri­al arts building, Chelsea High School . Principal Ron Mead .said Tuesday. The building was doubled to include mdre shops.

The home economics building.in the middle of the campus had seen the least change. Originally, it served as the agriculture classroom. The administrative , office building was originally about three-quartersthe size of the current building.

Mead said there were addi­

tions to the 200 building near the entry driveway and Washington Street, and to the 400 building that currently houses the Chelsea District Library.

The new Chelsea High School opened in 1998 on North Freer Road.

unprecedented open space zoning was applied. •

Soule said that the commfsr sion should keep in mind that the community has spo­ken out against residential zoning.

Rode said he disagrees and noted that it could be said that the community spoke in approving the master plan. He said adhering to the docu­ment has come to mean more to him the longer he remains on the commission.

Rode said to do otherwise makes it a weak and arbi­trary document that contra­dicts the planning process.

commlssioners have to come to grips with the fact that Chelsea has lost its rural character.

“If you want rural charac­ter, move out of southeast Michigan,” she said.

Mink said the commission could set a precedent by zon­ing the neighboring areas residential.

Haugen disagreed with Mink's dismissal of how the area is currently perceived.

“Whether large or small,, rural character is about appearances,” he said. “It’s still being used for agricul­tural purposes, which makes it that land’s existing use.”

Commissioner Kim Soule asked if privately owned, publicly assessed parks, such as for dogs,; would still require a public hearing if a change was made.

Chairman Chris Rode and Zoning and Planning Officer Jim Drolett said a public hearing would not be re­quired.

Rode said he has seen municipal parks built with­out public input that neigh­bors opposed,

“While that situation prob­ably won’t happen here. I ’d like to protect ourselves,” Rode said. “I’m for keeping it special land use.”

The commission unani­mously agreed with Code’s recommendation.

The commission also re­viewed a preliminary site

■ Officials also OK pay hike for deputy supervisor.By Michael RybkaSpecial Writer

lyndop Township attorney Peter Flintoft, Township Treasurer Ellen McMurray, Zoning Officer Merritt Hon- baum and Supervisor Mary* ann Noah have been granted the authority to file small- claim lawsuits on behalf of the township.

Action was taken at the board's Sept, 10 meeting.

McMurray may do so on matters concerning personal property tax collection and Honbaum on zoning and ordinance fines, costs, charges and assessments. Noah may on all other issues.

The board also accepted Flintoft's advice to include a statement in the zoning application indemnifying the township from being culpa- ble foi expensesaccruedby

up legal mattersKnieper Said the change is

meant to help residents as much as the township be­cause many applicants ere unaware that ZB A decisions can be overturned in the cir­cuit court.

In other news, Deputy Su­pervisor, John Francis re­quested in writing and was granted a pay rate adjust­ment for meetings that he chairs. Francis said that as a former township supervisor, he. brings a wealth of experi­ence,., ' •. Francis has been paid $12 an hour. He will now earn a flat rate of $60 per meeting that he chairs and he will retain the same hourly amount for non-meeting duties. 1

The adjustment was ap­proved 4-0, with Trustee Kathryn Francis, the former supervisor’s wife, abstaining.

Also last week, Township Assessor Marci Betts’ con­tract was renewed for anoth-

The services of township auditors Pfeffer, Hanniford and Falka were renewed for three years at an estimated cost of $4,500 per year. The amount is $300 more per year than the previous contract. Noah considers the increase reasonable,

The township’s contin­gency fund has been raided for $2,000 to cover the cost of an election coordinator. The budget overlooked the fact that there are two elections in the township this year.

Knieper’s request to order a "Vote Here” sign was approved. The clerk said many township residents are unclear as to where they should vote. The sign will cost $91.25, plus shipping.

Also at the meeting, a par­cel in the Multi-Lake Phase II project was amended on the special assessment tax rolls after it was discovered to be an empty lot.

Pupils at North Creek Elementary School soon will have new playground equip­ment to enjoy at recess, cour­tesy of the school’s PTO.

The group is donating sev­eral pieces of playground equipment at a cost of $4,477. Volunteers will help remove the existing playground

equipment and install the new items, PTO member Jeff Dehring said.

A double-bay tire swing will replace the auto-tire and wooden-post climber.

The kindergarten play area will get two new pony spring riders and a new fire chief’s

car spring rider to replace those currently on the site.

Now that the school board has approved the donation, Ron Livengood, director of operations, can place the order- He said the supplier expects delivery to take place between Oct. 10 and 15.

planned for the basins to be located behind two residen­tial units with the easements in the side yards. l Village'* fa rm e r ' Carl Schmult said that the pro­posed easements would go through vegetable gardens or flowerbeds;

"It’s a poor way to design a site,” Schmult said. "Side easements are a bad idea, When Detroit Edison comes through and trims trees, peo­ple wonder why. The com- plaints come here. People Usually don’t even know there’s an easement.”

It was also thought that the easements are too narrow. Loveland said he has been working from criteria set by the Washtenaw County Drain Commission.

Loveland said the only solution would be to move a basin near the roadway, but it would look unattractive.

Loveland: won support from Drolett.

"You’re getting no credit for an existing condition)” Drolett said. "I have yet to see a.basin in.town full. They’re ugly. I ’m against retention ponds in general.”

Commissioner Marilyn Mink suggested that elimi­nating a lot would provide more leeway. :

"We’re already providing a lot of road and hot. getting any. benefit from it,” Loveland said, “To ask us to give up a lot is asking a lot”

The roadway Loveland,is

providing will extend Gene Drive and turn it into a pub­lic street.

Loveland said the cul-de- sacs are not necessary Until an easement agreement could be reached with Gene

Drive resident. Jim Machnik.Given the Unsolved issues,

consideration was post­poned.

Fire Marshal answers questions■ Local officials ask how proposed ordinance would work.By Michael RybkaSpecial Writer

The Chelsea, Area Fire Authority welcomed Kalama- zoo Charter Township Fire Marshal Ron Farr to a spe­cial meeting Sept. 18 to answer questions front mem­ber municipalities concern­ing a proposed fire preven­tion registration ordinance and a fire inspection ordi­nance.

The proposed registration ordinance would require that every business fill out a form stating where and what type of hazardous material is on site, among other informa­tion. Failure to fill out the form would result in a fine.

The inspection ordinance would allow qualified pro­fessionals to inspect the premises of businesses based on information provid­ed on the forms.

Currently, the ordinance the fire authority works under gives the organization the right to inspect, but not to enforce corrective measures, which requires state assis­tance; ’

Lyndon and Waterloo town­ships have passed the ordi­nances. Lima Township, Sylvan Township and Chel­sea Village have not.

Ordinances in Kalamazoo Township have served as the model for the Chelsea Area Fire Authority Board’s pro­posal,

Farr began the presenta­tion by giving an overview in his township*. He said Kala­mazoo Township’s program7 was created in 1978 with the goal of education rather than penalization. . '

Farr said enforcement for non-compliance is rarely needed, but he stressed that

such options have to be included to give the ordi­nances regulatory power.

For the most part, Farr said businesses have Wel­comed the inspections, espe­cially after realizing they were unaware of significant hazards on their sites. rr

Farr urged the fire author­ity to abandon Public Act 207, which it has been using for inspections, and to adopt its own. He said the act was intended for state use and not for local fire depart­ments.

Chelsea Fire Inspector Matt Tuttle said the ordi­nances age meant to meet the changing concept of a fire department, which he said is of a fire-prevention unit, rather than a fire-extinguish­ing force.

Tuttle said the adoption of the ordinances would put the community under more local control and out of the hands of the state, which he said may not be as understanding or cooperative.

Farr answered questions mainly posed by Sylvan Township. Fire Chief Dan Ellenwood, Tuttle-and Sandi Bird, business manager for the Chelsea Area Fire Au­thority, also answered the questions.Funding and Billing

Farr said that the Kalama­zoo Township inspections are frinded by a millage.

Lima Township Supervisor Ken Unterbrink said the fire authority is not firnded by a millage. and, unlike Kala­mazoo Township, the fire authority has to deal with at least five different munici­palities,

Bird said that, instead of a millage, a flat fee or a fixed rate would be charged to the business owners. She said she is advocating a $35 or $70 flat fee, depending bn the

size of the business.Bird said the money collect­

ed from each municipality would be that much less the municipality would pay in monthly operations billing,

The administrator added that the only cost to the town­ship would be if a. matter ended up in court, but she said she does not foresee that happening very often.

Farr added that a settle­ment could be contingent upon a municipality’s court costs being reimbursed by the defendant.

Lima Township Treasurer Nanette Havens asked why there is a need to charge a fee when the inspectors are "already on the clock and being paid.”

Bird said money is needed to recoup expenditures such as documentation and gas, and to cover the depreciation of wear and tear on vehicles.

Bird said a municipality could, be billed directly, rather than adopting the fees to be levied on business own­ers.

Unterbrink asked if any­one has talked to local busi­ness owners about the pro­posal. Bird said the fire authority—hasn't,—but—she- thinks the amount being asked for is reasonable.

Waterloo Township Trustee Ron Breyer said the $35 fee could be deducted as a busi­ness expense and an inspec­tion would lower a business’ insurance rate.

Sylvan Township Clerk LuAnn Koch and Village President Richard Steele appeared surprised to learn that municipal inspection billing could take place regardless if the local boards approved the ordinances.

Bird said that the fire authority has an ordinance that allows it to bill and it’s simply a matter of the rev-

State Fire Marshal issues warningThe Michigan State Police

Fire Marshal Division has issued a warning that fall in Michigan is the most danger­ous time of year for home fires.

According’ to Capt. Mark Dougovito, commander of the Fire Marshal Division, “Cooler weather brings with it an increased use of heating equipment. Furnace^ fire­places, wood stoves and space heaters provide much needed warmth, but also sig­nificantly increase the odds of a fire in your home.”

The Fire Marshal Division is warning Michigan resi­dents that they before using any heating appliance in their home, they should do the following:

•Have fiimaces and fire­places inspected and clean­ed by a professional.

•Read and follow the man­ufacturer’s instructions for the use and care of wood stoves.

•Place portable electric space heaters at least three feet from anything that will burn and plug them directly into a wall outlet; avoid using extension cords.

•Provide adequate ventila­tion if using a portable, ftiel- burning space heater to avoid the buildup of deadly carbon monoxide in your home.

•Teach children that heat­ing appliances can be dan­gerous and should not be touched at any time.

“We are urging people to take a few moments to.

inspect, clean and make nec­essary repairs to all heating appliances before use, for your own safety, and the safe­ty of your family,” Dougovito

-said.

enue coming in from busi­nesses or from an additional line item,in the budget. Inspection Criteria

Farr said every business would have to register and be subject to ah inspection. He said the definition of a busi­ness could be taken from Webster’s Dictionary

Farr said it’s up to the fire authority to decide what is inspected and exemptions could be put into the ordi*

' nance, stating ‘These are not construed as businesses,”

Tuttle said that what would be inspected would be at the discretion of the fire chief and/or fire marshal based on limited manpower and the degree of risk a business poses. *

Other inspections would take place as they come up, including such seasonal businesses as a "haunted house.” For example, Tuttle said the sponsors of a haunt­ed house would be called in advance and, if there were problems, it would be closed dpwn until rectified.

Farr said that a refusal to comply would constitute an issue of life-endangerment and subject to arrest.

Bird said the municipali­ties that have delayed pass­ing the ordinance should come to a decision by the fire authority’s October meeting, so the board.knows how to proceed.

THE UNIFYING THEME OF ALL RELIGIONSDear Friends and Neighbors,

How many limes haven't you heard people say, "Alt religions, are basically the same: They’re all based on the Ten Commandments, or at,least an equivalent of th’c Ten Commandments”?- - There is some truth in that. Any

m relijjion that Is worth anything must stand for some basic moral values. There is sbmething deep inside each human being which recognizes the validity of moral principles. History also proyes.that certain moral standards arc neces­sary for a society to survive.

Yet the Christian faith deviates quite drastically from all other reli­gions in how it reacts to God’s moral principles. Other religions tire based on the premise that it's possible for a human being to live up to God's stan­dards to a satisfactory degree, and thereby become eligible. for eternall i f e . ___The Christian faith is the only one.

as far as 1 know, that recognizes the / possibility of satisfactorily living up to God’s moral code. The Christian faith admits that no amount of

obedience, service, or sacrifice that we can make would ever be enough to

‘ satisfy God, Whereas other religions look at God's law as the means to acceptance with God, the Christian faith says, "No one will be declared righteous by observing the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of sin’’ (Romans 3:20),

' The Christian faith centersnot around taw or moral principles, but around a Person, Jesus Christ. We believe that Jesus Christ, who was both true God and true Man, fulfilled the law perfectly as ouf Substitute, was put to death as a Sacrifice and payment for all of our shortcomings, and was raised on the third day as

. proof that we arc acceptable to God through faith in Him.These beliefs set the Christian faith

apart from all other religions. They also set Faith Lutheran Church, apart from many who call themselves Christians.Please visit us this Sunday morning

Public invited to planning meetings

The'Chelsea Village Plan­ning Commission is seeking ihput for the creation of a Village Parks and Recre­

ation Master Plan. The first of three public hearings, to be held 7 p.m. Tuesday at the Washington Street Edu­cation Center board' room,

' will contribute to the draft- ing of a pian. ■* .:

Any written comments, may be sent to the village 'Offices attention Chris Rode, chairman of the Village Planning. Commls~ Sion, 305 S„. Main $t., Chelsea, MI 48118,

What is a Parks < arid ROcreatibh Master Plan, why do we. need one and who win use; it? . • ( ■

Well, first, a parks and recreation master plan can be simply described as. a statement of policy for a municipality that reports on the current availability of parks and recreation oppor*

, tunities in the areg, identi­fies which opportunities;

: might be lacking, and sets a course in the form of action

r plans that will fill those ■ need**;/

It alsp serves specifically as policy for the municipali­ty’s planning commission, in recommending ordinances, guidihg land-use planning decisions, end providing direction in the site plan review process,

These, reasons are why I ’ asked the Village Council to authorize . the Chelsea Planning Commission to undertake this process. The specific topics covered by

' these discussions are too numerous to mention here and i do not,wish to leave, anything out, so I won’t attempt to itemize a list.

’niisw illbeanattem ptat a compreherisivediscussion of parks and recreation

. Why We need such a state: ment of policy Will probably be obvious to, anyone that1 has followed. recent. devel­opment issues in Chelsea. The Planning Commission reliesheavily on our. poli­cies with the Village Comprehensive, Plan serv­ing as our primary policy statement.

Inf dealing with recent . developments,-in particular with large residential devel­opments, we have found that the Comprehensive Plan has not made strong enough stateheritson parks, open space, and \ recreation opportunities.

The Planning Commission has been frustrated by hav­ing left ourselyes in a posi­tion of asking (begging, real­ly) for the inclusion of these key. site elements; iti these lafge-scale developments.

However,' the strength pf Our - planning policy lies In both the legal authority granted to villages and the process that is dictated by theselaws.

In other words, we can’t just create policy as we go in reaction to a given proposed development/ We can strengthen our position by creating specific policy, but

. it ;must be dope through accepted planning pripci*

•.j; Finaily. who will use it? Well, certainly the PlanningCommission. We Will be

, using the. input jWe get . through the involvement of our fellow citizens and prop­erty owners to set policy that createsexpectatlons for

, would-be I j deyelopers in l ChelMA. • 2V/ ' '•:,

These policies will also> suggest specific ordinances that will direct how all new development or redevelop­ment . must consider and include park, open Space,.

; and reerpatfonaf elements. ' It is our hope that other

-groups Will Utilize the bdne-: fits of a parks and recre­ation rimstpf plan in direct­ing thpir effprts when con­sidering issues that inipact parks and recreation. 2 2 2

For example, a private or public initiative to acquire properly for creatlng a new park or recreational facility could utilize this policy in the pursuit of grant money.

Or > the school district could consult the plan when considering how pest to uti­lize theirvfacilities^ or how they might spend their money in order to meet the needs of their constituents.

Let me provide a brief sketch of the forraat and timeline for this process.

; First.Iwouid like to/stress the importance of involve-

< ment frpm bur citizens. As I mentioned above, a primary strength of this type of poli­cy document: is the process. We wiU be relying, on. this policy and it needs to repre-

. sent a consensus of as many of'bur residents as we can

/ get tO'participate.While there are specific

public hearings, as always,; feel free to attend ahy of our> working session or regular t meetings; the first and thirdTuesday of each month,

/ respectively.: :-:2:2;' 2;^2 ^; At the first meeting, we . will be presenting ah inven- ; tory of the parks and recre­ation opportunities id Chelsea and get started ask­ing what more our residents would like to see. added to

:that ‘inventory; and what' future developments should offer in term's of park or

/open space.That meeting w.ill he* fol­

lowed Nov., 19 by. a public hearing for invited groups,

but is, of course, open to all 1 interested individuals;

The second meeting is intended to generate specif­ic comments from groups with a specific stake in parks and recreation, such as sports clubs, senior citi­zens groups and schools, that can express specific hopes for fulfilling park and recreation; needs for their constituents. 1

A, two-, .to three-month -period will follow.in which the Planning Commission will draft a plan that would bd reviewed<ata>third pub­lic hearing te la in February or March, approximately a five-to six-month process. ,

In-the end, we will have a document that will be sent to the Village Council for adoption and then it will be available for use by all interested groups.

Article about library wag not misleading

,1 was astonished to read the letter in last week’s Chelsea. Standard that criti­cized the Sept; 5 article by Michael Rybka. The article reported on the Aug. 27 pub­lic meeting at which The Breton Group presented the results of interviews with community leaders on plans to expand the Chelsea District* Library. The letter writer felt the article was misleading.

Rybka’s article accurately reported on the meeting’s presentation: that the public would Support a library expansion plan somewhat scaled-back in size and cost, that keeping the library downtown is vital to the eco­nomic health of Chelsea’s, downtown, tha,t the Library Board needs to- improve communications with1 the public, bnd that mixed pub- lic/private funding for;a reduced-scope library expansion plan, can be suc­cessful.

Article on firefighter was premature

This is a response to your article (“Firefighter pleads

guilty to sex crime”) pub­lished Sept. 19 regarding James Keen.

On Sept. 13, a letter of res­ignation was received by Mr. Keen, in which he voluntari­ly terminated his employ­ment with the Chelsea Area Fire Authority.

On Sept. 16, Mr. Keen pleaded guilty to a criminal charge. in ; Washtenaw County District Court.

On Sept. 17, The Chelsea Standard, contacted the business managers office requesting a statement regarding GAFA’s position on thty matter. The business manager did not refuse a response, but asked for sub­mission of the newspaper’s' request in the form of a writ­ten Freedom of Information request.

As of the time of publica­tion, the FOIA request was never delivered to CAFA by The Chelsea Standard. (It was submitted Sept. 19.)

I can only assume that your writer desired to write this story in time for your Sept. 17 deadline, as opposed to pursuing the more professional avenue of fact finding regarding CAFA’s position on this mat­ter,

In turn, your writer pro­vided misstatements about the business manager’s response and sought infor­mation regarding employ­ment policies ahd proce­dures from a neighboring fire department; which did not employ Mr. Keen;

CAFA had no responsibili­ty to lay-off or terminate Mr. Keen’s employment based on a charge of criminal action, Mr. Keen was pre­sumed innocent, until proven otherwise.

Mr. Keen resigned from CAFA prior to his plea of guilty. Is there a difference between a legal charge ahd a legal conviction? The answer is yes.

The Dexter Area Fire Department and Dexter Area Fire iBoard provided their policies related to a criminal conviction. CAFA was not required to render a decision regarding Mr. Keen’s employment at the

time of charge nor at the time of conviction.

Mr. Keen was presumed innocent during the period he was charged and was no longer an employee at the time of conviction.

In order to protect the rights and privacy of all par­ties involved, CAFA contiii- ually requested Written Freedom of! Information requests from The CHetseS Standard' as this matter t elated to employmentissues.

CAFA responded, in writ­ing to all of The Chelsea Standard’s requests under FOIA within five business days, the legal time allowed for a response.

Unfortunately, this ap­peared to interfere with The Chelsea Standard’s dead­line. As a result, two pub­lished articles provided Dexter’s opinion on how to handle this particular em­ployment matter despite the fact Mr. Keen is not employed by the Dexter Area Fire Department.

A n g e l m a n S y n d r o m e

By Rita FischerSpedal Writer

A sk any parent with a special-needs child and they'll say one of

the greatest gifts is time.The Capper family of Lyn­

don Township received such a gift from five local teem agers, who are providing what Tom and Lisa Capper call “miles and miles of ther­apy” for their daughter, Emily.

The five—Jenna Simpson, Ca& Simpson, Lindsey Dahl, Ashley Simpsph and / Liz Hopd — Visit on a rotating. schedule, spending a couple of bourse week each with Epdiyv- ■' ' '

The young girl with the wide smilO was born with Angelman Syndrome, a genetic condition that can ^e|Ultin 2 1 different medical and .developmental prob­lems. Theseinclude delayed developmerit.ePPechprob- lems, movement or balance disorders, seizures, feeding problem*; sleeping difficul­ties, a wide mouth and drool* ing.

Emily requires a great deal of physicai, Speech and occu­pational therapy.

Tom Capper says he doesn’t understand why more people don’t volunteer to help.

“People don’t need to donate huge amounts of time,” he' says. “A small amount of help goes a long way."

The teen-agers even visited Emily’s school, the pre-pri­mary impaired program in Chelsea, where teachers and therapists explained the challenges Emily faces and the goals she is striving to

reach.“It seemed better to come

fro m a professional than to have us tell them how to help Emily,” Capper says. “Plus it had a great impact. It has helped them realize that Emily is a serious job, not just babysitting..

“The visit helped the girls understand more about Emily and her condition.’’

Capper says his daughter requires a lot of attention, with everything taking twice as long as it does for Emily’s younger sister, 14-inonth-old .Kate.. “We all know how little time is left in the day when you have kids to take care of,” he says. “With the extra time it takes for Emily; there is even, less time in our house;’’

Emily’s therapy requires a constant repetition of skills — , holding her hand and walking with her, for hours, days, months, years until her mind and muscles respond.

Capper says he’s certain the reason his daughter is having great success in walk­ing is because of the extra attention lavished on her by the teens.

’’The girls started by just holding her hand and walk­ing in circles,” he says. “They would count the steps that Emily would take... I think it was a competition.”

The endless repetition resulted in a Christmas mira­cle last year when Emily walked across a basement floor, at Ashley and Cara Simpson’s home.

“We lost count of how many steps it was ” Ashley says. “It

was a ve ry exciting time for us, and all the long hours of holding Emily’s hand and walking in circles paid off.

’/Seeing her go along and accomplish new things, it’s a great feeling to be. a part of it.”

Capper says Emily and the girls have brought the neigh­borhood together."Emily’s success and the

support of these girls have made the fam files much clos­er,” he says. “Emily is treated as the neighbor's special

angel.“She is not able to talk so

she can’t tell you how she’s feeling. But the smile that comes across her face when any one of the girls comes over to work with her says it all.”

When Lynn Roskowski-Farley isn’t leading tours of the Jiffy Mix plant at Chelsea Milling Co., she can be foiind heading down the high­way on, her motorcycle, a pastime she says feels good fpr the Soul.

The Lyndon Township resident got her first taste of two-wheel ton in 1880when her hus­band, Art, introduced her to biking..

Bored with being a backseat rider, Roskowski-Farley got her own. small bike and learned to ride in the parking lot at the. Washington Street Education Center in Chelsea.

She was in good hands — her husband, the former owner of Chelsea Motorcycle Supply, is an instructor with the Motorcycle,Safety Foundation and teaches motorcycle safety seminars at Washtenaw Community College.

Since then, Roskowski-Farley; a member of the Ladies of Harley and Motor Maids, has covered 150,000 miles across the United States in the last two decades. After outlast­ing three bikes; she now rides a 1907 Harley Heritage soft-tail classic.

Riding isn’t just for ton, it’s also a way of raising money for many good causes. Roskowski-Farley has taken part in several charity rides, including fund-raisers for leukemia,, pediatric brain tumors, the Salvation Army, breast cancer research, and the. bum center at C.S. Mott Children’s

Thin Blue Line in Chelsea, a fund-raiser for the families of fallen police officers, and with the annual Domino’s Farms ride in August.

“I like to be able to ride to the events every year and the camaraderie, knowing that many women — sometimes up to 500 wometj — show up,” she says. ; ,

Roskowski-Farley and her husband also rode their motorcycle and sidecar around the links at the Polo Fields Golf and Country Club in July. Dressed in costume, they hand* ed out Jiffy Mix to golfers taking part in the Jeff Daniels'Comedy Golf Jam. •

The couple has raised money for Faith Irj Action Inc. in Chelsea and the St. Loui* Center in Sylvan Township by offering side­car rides.

Roskowski-Farley’s travels have taken her across the country, including South Dakota, Alaska, Florida; Maine and Washington.

A few weeks ago, she and some friends took “a nerve-wracking” ride through the Appalachian mountains, a trip that included stops in Gettysburg and the chocolate factory in Hershey, Pa.

Roskowski-Farley has been a member of the Ladies of Harley for 20 years, arid takes part in the group’s tond-raising poker runs; monthly dinner rides and meetings.

The group recently sold pizza kits, donate ing the money raised to a domestic violence shelter. . . ' .,

Chelsea native ; Gayla Bauer Blaisdeil returns to her hpmetown to kick off the new season of Chelsea Musical Celebrations. The soprano will sing in concert 7 p.m. Saturday; at the First Congregational Church, 121 E. Middle St., in Chelsea.

Blaisdeil will perform a variety of songs ranging from baroque to contemporary, including hymns arranged for voice and cello and lighter musical theater selec­tions.

She is the daughter of Gail Bauer, former vice president of Chelsea State Bank, and of Norman Bauer, retired owner of Norm’s Body Shop. Her brothers, Dennis and Bart, work at Chelsea Lumber Co.

Blaisdeil graduated from Chelsea High School in 1985, but spent her senior year away as an early college admit at Cottey College in Missouri.

After graduation, she transferred to the Eastman School of Music,, where she earned a bachelor’s degree. She then went to, the New

England Conservatory in Boston, where she earned a master’s degree in music and a graduate diploma in opera.

Blaisdeil was a member of the Chelsea High. School band, orchestra and several choirs and of a small ensem­ble, “The Contemporaries.” She also performed in such Chelsea High School musical productions as “West Side Story” and “The Wizard, of Oz,” and played a role in “Pippin” in her junior year.

Blaisdeil performed in

many Chelsea Area Players shows and participated in the Children’s Theater Workshop almost every year.

“The year thy husband and I were married (1.994), we lived in Chelsea for the sum­mer and were able to per­form opposite each other in the Chelsea Area Players summer show, ’The Most Happy Fella,”’ Blaisdeil said. “My husband, Torrance Blaisdeil, is a tenor and per­forms professionally in both opera and on Broadway.

“So far, ‘The Most Happy Fella’ here in Chelsea has been the only show we’ve been able to do together, so it remains special to us.” .

Blaisdeil and her husband and son, Tristan, live in New York City, where she main­tains private vocal studios in midtowii Manhattan and Scarsdale, and performs reg­ularly in professional choral and chamber ensembles.

“Because we live in New York City, 9/11 was a major force in our lives last year,” Blaisdeil said.

She and her husband sang at several funerals aijd memorials, both for individu­

Mime, song, drumming and painting are used to recreate and celebrate ancient cave art in “Lascaux: Dawn of Art.“ The show is set for 7:30 p.m. Oct. 2 and 3 at Chelsea High School, 740 N. Freer Road, in Chelsea.

The Lascaux cave, estimat­ed to be 17,000 years old, is the most famous of the caves in southern France. Dis­covered in 1940 by four boys, theextraordinary cave paint­

ings suggest that ancient ancestors did more than hunt and gather.

The show will be present­ed by Chelsea High School students in teacher Bill Coelius’ stage and drama class, the choir, directed by Steven Hinz, and by art class­es under the direction of teacher Kerry Kafgel.

The students will perform in association with Michael

Lee and OPUS Mime.Tickets are $6 for adults, $4

for students, and are avail­able at the Chelsea Phar­macy and through cast mem­bers. For reservations, call 433-2201, Ext. 1500. For infor­mation, call 665-5134:

“While those services were extremely difficult, it was a nice chance to be a part of something so* important, and to. feel that my music was helpfUl to those grieving,” she said.

“On a lighter note, I had the pleasure of being one of the soloists at George Stephanopoulous’ wedding last year. One of the- perks of living in New York and being a singer;”

Blaisdeil said she feels lucky to be successful in “a very difficult career.”

“I’m a working, professiop- al classical singer and have had some wonderful oppor­tunities thus far, but I will never be a star like Britney

Spears Isa star,” she said. ...Blaisdeil says her parents

have been inspirational, and provided undying support'

“They’ve cheered me on and consoled me along the way, and kept.me going when lots of my colleagues gave up singing,” she said. “I thank them from the bottom of my heart and will never be able to repay them.”

Blaisdeil said that operatic voices develop slowly, so she wasn’t that noticeable a singer during her childhood years in Cheftea,

She credits her teachers at Chelsea High School — Tammie Barbrett, June Warren and BUI Gourley — her piano teacher, Patricia Stirling, and her voice teacher, Jeanette Brock of Ann Arbor, with encouraging her to study the “how-to”

part of music.“Pm still pursuing that pas­

sion while I finish ray Ph.D. from New York University,” she said. “I’m finished with

, the degree, all but my disser­tation.”

Blaisdeil said she’s ’“thril­led” to be doing the recital Saturday in Chelsea;

“I’m very honored to have been asked,” . she said. “Chelsea Musical Celebra­tions has a wonderful con­cert series going, and I hope 1 can bring sbmething extra to it by being a native of Chelsea.”

Tickets for Saturday’s con­cert are $14 for adults and $10 for seniors and youth ages 18 and younger. For more information, call 475? 7050 or go online to www.music.chelseafesti- vals.com.

Sizzlin’ reunionThursday, September 26,2002 • THE CHELSEA STANDARD/THE DEXTER LEADER ■ Page 5*B

ily members spend a weekend in ChelseaB y Sheila Pursglove . Associate Editor

Jabez and Eliza Bacon, res* idents of Chelsea from 1871 until * their deaths in the 1930s, lie ait peace in Chel­sea’s Oak Grove Cemetery. v

On Sept. 14, many of their descendants gathered at the Chelsea Depot for a “Bacon* fest” family reunion, bring­ing together branches of the family tree from all over the world.

The genealogically-bound group .included the descen- dants of one sister and four of the original Bacons’ 12 children.

The reunion was reminis­cent of the Bacon cousin’s parties, held annually from . the late 1930s through 1974.

Paul Schultz of Fairfield, Calif., served as master of ceremonies, and started the luncheon by introducing'the guests of honor, Paul and Ann Persson of Henley on Thames in England.

Paul Persson, a descen­dant of Jabez Bacon’s sister, Elizabeth, described his

genealogical research.He had traced the Bacon

.family roots to Jabez Bacon’s parents, the Rev. John Bacon and Ann Pond, both of Pitch- eat, Somerset, in England; to John Bacon’s parents, John Bacon and Lucy Clare; and to Lucy. Clare’s father, John Clare* In all, the research encompasses more, than 200 years of family history.,

Persson then presented brief histories of several well-known Bacons, perhaps related; discussed,the proba­ble origins of the name; and presented a family crest and motto: “Mediocrita Firma,” meaning, “the middle road is best.”

Ann Persson narrated a slide show of their former home, Highmoor Hall, a beautiful estate and gardens, which serves as a center for the arts and quiet retreats. The Per8son8 recently* sold the home and began a six- month round-the-world vaca­tion that 'included a visit to Chelsea.

Local resident Frank

Kendrick lives at 149 E. Middle St. in Chelsea, a house built by Jabez Bacon and owned by the paeon fam­ily for nearly seven decades, He presented a printed histo­ry of the house and offered tours of it all day.

After a lunch prepared by Joshua Schultz of Santa Roja, Calif, the assembled' group settled down to watch a local tradition — the televised University of Michigan foot* ball game.. After dinner, keynote speaker Peter Bacon Fletch­er of Ypsilanti led the group in reminiscing about the departed and shared family stories.

The weekend activities included dinner at The Common Grill, a reception at the Comfort Inn, visits to the former Bacon home on East Middle Street and the ances­tral graves at Oak Grove Cemetery.

Associate Editor Sheila Pursglove can be reached at 475-1371 or via e-mail at 8pursglove@herltage.com.

Savory simplicitym a n

By Michael RybkaSpecial Writer

Even during the more than 33 years Jim Finch spent working at Daimler- Chrysler’s Chelsea Proving Grounds, olive oil was on his mind as much as motor oil.

This was evident Sept. 14 as Finch, a Chelsea resident, was the featured chef as part of the Chelsea Farmers’ Market Summer Chef series. His wife, Gail, helped.

The couple served up a full-course meal beginning with a salad topped with pear and maple vinaigrette, followed by tequila-lime shrimp for the entree, and finishing with zucchini crisp for dessert.

Jim fashioned the recipes after he retired from his job in December 1996 and was able to deyote more.time to his culinary interests.

He even took over his home’s kitchen duties from Gail, who retired in March from Chelsea Family Prac-

-tice after-working more than four decades as a nurse.

“And that’s fine with me,” Gail says. “I did it for all those years when our kids were growing up. He can do it now.”

Gail says that her husband has acquired such a top- notch reputation in the com­munity for his cooking abili­ties that many people assume that she can’t cook.

However, while Jim can’t leave a recipe alone,. Gail excels at more traditional

r e c i p e s a t s u m m e rdishes such as apple pie, she says.

Gail thinks their different approaches represent a com­mon difference.between the genders and she believes they result from domestic circumstances.

"Kids won’t try anything experimental,” Gail says, cit­ing as examples the dishes they served up at the market, "I had to cook for a family. I didn’t have the luxury to be experimental.”

As their children, Becky, Rick and Rod, became adults, they grew to appreci­ate their father’s concoc­tions. So much so that Jim felt obligated to compile a cookbook that each of his children received a copy of for Christmas.

Jim says his interest in cooking began at age 8, when he helped his Grandma Horton make gravy. That’s when he began reading cook­books in the same way other people read magazines.

“A recipe is a seed,” Jim says, “I’ll find something appealing then adapt it tp my tastes and techniques.”

Each of the dishes he fea­tured at the Farmers’ Market was evident of this tech­nique. The pear and maple vinaigrette was a modifica­tion of Common Grill propri­etor Craig Common's rasp­berry-walnut version,

The tequila-lime marinade derived from a bottle of the liquor given to him as a gift. “I don’t like tequila, so I had

to find some use for it,” Jim says.

The zucchini crisp was introduced to him at a reunion for Gail’s side of the family.

Jim received general ver­bal directions, then went home and, incorporating sug­gestions from Gail, "played around” with it until he was satisfied. .

Jim’s public acclaim as a cook began when he won chili cook-off contests in Saline, Kalamazoo . and Livonia sponsored by the National Kidney Founda­tion. The strict rules require a contestant to join the National Chili Society, which forbids the use of beans and ground meat.

He received farther acco­lades when the Chelsea Proving Ground’s wellness director printed several of his recipes in a corporate cookbook as examples of healthy eating.

Jim ’s recipe for tomato and jalapeno jelly has been featured every year on tele­vision’s "Michigan Out­doors” program since it was submitted in 1989.

Jim says that at one time he imagined using his retire­ment time to open up a restaurant and market some of his recipes.

"As far as the restaurant goes, I decided ! don’t want to work 80 to 90 hours a week,” he says. "When I looked into marketing, I decided that the bottling

Would be too expensive. In the end, we decided we’re happy playing it loose and being able to do what we want to do.”

Jim spends his spare time putting together dinners at the First United Methodist Church on Park street in Chelsea and helping with the odd catering job for; the Wolverine Food & Spirits.

"He can do anything and he does it well,” says Gary Farmer, director of Wolverine Catering.

Jim hasn’t abandoned all his earlier ideas, however. Together with Sylvan Township resident Jeff Gunnisi, he is mulling over the idea of composing a beginner’s cookbook target­ed to those who have just left home and have limited budgets.

1TALES FROM THE TRJUL

i;I

Vermont is so beautiful. As the mountains we climb get taller and taller, the views are more extraordinary.

Each sunset I see is unique | and more beautiful than the [ previous ones. There have t been at least four superb • sunsets in the past two I weeks, but my favorite was i the one I witnessed from atop

Mount Killington at 3,850 feet.< The Appalachian Trail

£ doesn’t go to the summit, but *’fhere is a side trail; it’s .20 ► miles to the top from the trail

straight up.The hand-over-foot ascent

: Was worth it, though. Three others and I hauled some

^gear and food to the top. We cooked diftner and ate, then $nuggled together in our Sleeping bags to watch the

j&st 30 minutes of the sunset, ■x From the top, we had a 360- degree view and in every direction we saw enormous mountains. I thought, "Wow,

, I’m going to have to climb

those" Then I started to think about all the incredi­ble views the mountains will grant me. I smiled.

Being on the top of a moun­tain makes me feel like I can fly away from everything if I so choose. It’s a freedom that feels like a drug, and it’s dif­ficult to explain.

The sun is setting as 1 snug­gle deeper into my sleeping bag. The sun drops between two levels of clouds before it finally sinks below a very dis­tant mountain range.

The sky is a kind of purple to the right with pink-streaky clouds to the left. Straight ahead, the last red rays of light from the sun are illumi­nating the silhouette of the mountains and casting a red glow on the cloud cover far away.

I feel a crazy high. I still feel a little sun warming my skin yet the cold air at that altitude freezes the expres­sion of serenity on my face.

As I fall asleep, I think about what awaits me. In two days, I will be in New Hampshire! I will then have the most difficult 300 miles of terrain to cross.

I’m looking forward to the rewards that will bring, but I’m not ignorant of the chal­lenge I’ve yet to face — day after day of sustained-steep climbs.

c r e a t e s

By Sheila PursgloveAssociate Editor

When Charlene Harris was laid up in Chelsea Com* munity Hospital for a week in 1999, she spent several hours in the courtyard atrium. An avid gardener, the Dexter Township resident was itch­ing to get out of her wheel­chair and set to work,

“1 could see the area had great potential and envi­sioned a peaceful oasis for both the staff and patients — a garden of serenity,’’ she says.

Harris, a horticultural instructor, writer and design­er, got her chance a couple of years later when recreation­al therapist Jan Collins called her in February 2001 to discuss a design for reno­vating the garden.

Collins was also interested in the potential use of a gar: den as therapy for patients.

“We agreed the garden could become more useftil and inviting with the removal of the fired existing plant­ings, and by introducing qui­eter bloom colors” Harris

Barb Greiner (left), president of the Evening Primrose Garden Club of Chelsea, helps garden designer Charlene Harris haul 32 bags of mutch donated by the club:

says.The pair also agreed the

enclosure, dominated by masonry walls and a large patio, could be softened with the introduction of more greenery.

“The garden would emu­late the rhythm of the sea­sons and provide a transition from the surrounding forest­ed setting of the hospital,,r" Harris says.

Last spring, after her pro­posal was accepted, Harris and volunteers began adding amendments to enrich the sandy soil and increase mois­ture retention.

To say the project posed a challenge is an understate­ment. Volunteers had to bring all of their garden paraphernalia on carts over carpeted floors and through interior hallways. In addi­tion, tables and chairs cover half the patio, so work was limited to the early evening hours and weekends to avoid interfering with daily hospi­tal activities and traffic.

Major renovations got un­der way last September, with a volunteer work force ofhalf a dozen hospital staff and some local master gardeners. Some hospital staff came in early or stayed after work to help with the project, In total, the crew put in approx­imately 100 hours on the project.

“We divided and relocated some of the existing plants

and added new ones,” Harris says. “Much of the plant material was dug from my garden in the afternoon and replanted in the evening in the courtyard.”

The crew even worked in foul weather. One evening in October, half a dozen people worked for an hour in the rain to finish planting and putting down mulch.

“We all got soaked, but fin­ished the job shortly before

‘dark,,r Harris says. “It was fun and the camaraderie of the group kept our spirits high.”

The garden includes tall, flowering Siberian and Jap­anese iris, easy to deadhead without the gardener having to bend, and with grass-like foliage that’s attractive through all seasons. The addition of dwarf conifers and ornamental grasses add colorful structure in fall ahd winter, Harris says.

A large picture winddw across from the dining room provides a view of the gar­den, framed by two hardy azaleas and a tree peony, &

“My role, as the designer has expanded to that of a vol­unteer gardener,” Harris says. “Others at the hospital' are making it happen, both patients and their family members, and the staff.”

Staff and patients, as well a s ; Harris, donated most of the plant materials and other garden items for the new design including amend­ments, decorative stepping- stones and rocks,.

Chelsea’s Evening Prim*- rose Garden Club donated $100 for mulch.

Harris says Collins has been instrumental in the process, serving as a staff vol­unteer, as well as using the garden for recreational ther­apy.

The wife of one Of Collins’ patients donated stepping- stones and worked in the gar­den during her husband’s therapy time.

Collins also hung notes by the hospital time-clocks requesting rocks for the gar­den. By mid-June, some hos­pital staff members were hauling rocks to work in the trunks of their cars.

“The rocks are being used to create some structure in the beds and elevate plant­ings,” Harris says. “A dry stream lined with rocks dis­guises the channel to a large drain for the patio runoff.

“More rocks will be need­ed to provide retention of mulch in the beds to keep it from Washing out on the patio during heavy rains.”

Harris, who has con­tributed more than 100 vol­unteer hours to plant and deyelop the garden, enjoys reading bptries in the gardencomment book, in which patients and visitors describe the garden as peaceful, beautiful, and serene.

KNOW YOUR MIME

Projections show that a majority of us will suffer from some physical disabili­ty in our lives. The disability may be temporary or perma­nent

Would you be able to navi­gate around your home if you were: on crutches? What if you were in a wheelchair? How about if you were blind or deaf?

The Americans with Disa­bilities Act became law about 10 years ago. This law makes it illegal to discrimi­nate against a person based on their physical limitations.

One of the most visible aspects of the ADA is in con­struction. Any new or remod- eled building erected since 1992 is required to meet the ADA guidelines.

However, the law only applies to public and com­mercial buildings. Private homes, governmental, reli­gious and a few other build­ing types are exempt.

There are probably not many who believe that pri­vate homes should be required to meet ADA stan­dards. However, it does make sense to modify house designs to accommodate some disabilities.

This will help to meet a growing need for accessible housing as aging baby boomers create an increas­ing demand for accessible accommodations as they grow older.

Does it make sense to design homes accessible for the disabled? Is the market too small? Will it cause inconveniences for the rest of us? What is the cost?

prepare-ihany ways" in" ich a standard house can

be modified to meet the needs of a disabled person and not cause any inconven­ience for an abterbodied per­son.

Indeed, for a cost approxi­mately 10 percent above a “standard” design, an acces­sible home can be built. These modifications will allow older homeowners to stay in their own homes later in life, and may also have better resale value in the future.

Listed are examples of design changes that help to meet the challenges of the disabled:

•Construct a single story home, or at least have one bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor.

•Build the home’s lower level close to the ground to eliminate steps and mini­mize the need for ramps into the home.

•Make all doors and hall­ways 36-inches wide to allow passage of a wheelchair.. •Construct all rooms large enough so that a wheelchair can turn around within the room. This requires an open circular area 60 inches in diameter.

•Install grab bars in bath­rooms for showers and at toi­lets. If they are thought to be unsightly, a t least install

S t u d e n t s

reinforcing within the walls so that the bars can be easily installed in the future.

•Install toilets with higher seats.

•Lower mirrors.•Eliminate curbs at show­

ers.;.. , , ■. •Install a fold-down seat in

showers.•Leave areas under sinks

open so that someone can sit at the fixtures. Pad and insu­late the pipes below the fix­ture.

•Mount clothes rods and hooks at . levels that can be reached by a seated resident.. •Reconfigure kitchen cabi­nets, countertops and appli­ances to .be accessible to someone in a wheelchair. This will require lower heights and open spaces under some countertops.

•Avoid very dense carpet­ing that will impede someone With a walker or a wheel­chair.

•If stairs are heeded, keep each riser low and each step wide. Also, provide hand­rails on both sides of the stair.

•If ramps are required, keep the rise in slope to less than 1 in 20.

•Install windows so that the sills are below the view­ing height of someone in a wheelchair.

•Doors should have han­dles instead of knobs so that they can be grasped and turned with ease.

•Every doorway should be designed so that someone in a Wheelchair has space on the pull side of the door to avoid the door swing.

While most of these sugges­tions are intended to help a person in a wheelchair, some of them are helpful to anyone with a physical impairment.

Many of these modifica­tions can be implemented without any negative effects on an unimpaired owner.

Chelsea swimmers remain unbeatenThe Chelsea girls’ swim­

ming and diving team improved its record to a still unblemished 4-0 with a deci­sive victory over Milan 115- 70 last Thursday.

With more state qualify times posted by the visiting Bulldogs, their pursuit of a Division II, state champi­onship becomes less of a dream and more of a quest.

Chelsea began the evening with an outstanding effort from the 200 medley relay team of Kelsey Benton, Alise Augustine, Jessica Lodewyk and Jessica Bassett, who fin­ished first with a time of 2:00.39.

Kayla Hack in the 200 back- stroke bested the field with a season best clocking of 2:03.09, improving her state qualifying time from nearly two weeks ago. Katrina Moffett earned third place honors at 2:10.23. Lindsay Cook was fifth at 221.51.

Alii Sayers easily won the 1-ineter diving event, prov­ing, once again, that she is one of the top divers in the state. Chelsea Gibbs earned third place honors for the: Bulldogs.

Julie Mida cruised to victo­ry ip the 100 butterfly, out- touching teammate Jessica Lodewyk, who placed second in 13321. Nicole Lodewyk was fourth at 1:1123.

son in the next two weeks, said Bulldog coach Dave Jolly.-

Kara Stiles heated the pool up in the 100 freestyle, swim­ming to an outstanding time of56.22 and first places Even more impressive was senior tri-captain' Dani Sawyer, touching a split second be­hind at 96.73. Sarah Tschir- fcart was solid with a strong time of 132.00.

Fourth quarter run sparks cagersB y Don RichterSports Editor

In most games, there’s always a point when one team exerts its will and takes over the contest,

For Chelsea girls’ basket­ball, the fourth quarter of last Thursday’s game against Dexter was just such a moment.

An 8-0 Bulldog run early in the final frame broke open a tight game as Dexter fell to its county rivals 66-43 last Thursday night.

“We didn’t play as well as we needed to,’’ said Dexter coach Mike Bavineau. “Much of the credit, however, goes to Chelsea.”

The visiting Bulldogs (6-1) jumped out to an early 7-2 first quarter lead before Bavineau called a timeout to calm his team.

The Dreadnaughts re­sponded coming out of the timeout, as freshman guard Jenny Cowen nailed a 3- pointer, followed by an inside bucket from senior post player Bonnie Seleska. The two baskets tied the score at 7-7 with 1:19 left in the opening quarter.

But a three-point play by Bulldog senior forward Anna Arend upped Chelsea’s lead to 10-7, with a minute remain­ing in the quarter.

Dexter (3-2) answered with a 3-pointer by junior forward Anne Cowen tying the score at .10-10 with 15 seconds left in the quarter.

Chelsea senior swing play­er Alison Mann ended the quarter, however, with a triple as the buzzer sounded, giving the Dawgs a 13-10 lead heading into the second! frame.

In the second quarter, Chelsea outscored the Dreadnaughts 19-10 as Mann poured in eight points — once again closing out the stanza scoring as the horn sounded.

Senior forward Shannon Kennedy, who netted seven points, and junior forward Kelsea Howell, with four

points, paced Dexter in the period.

In the third quarter, both clubs battled to an 11-11 tie, but as they had done the pre­vious two frames, the Bulldogs scored as the buzzer sounded. This time, instead of Mann making the shot, it was senior point guard Julia Arnold beating the clock on a running one- hander.

With Arnold’s bucket, Qhelsea entered the fourth quarter leading 43-32.

In the final frame, the Bulldogs outscored Dexter 23-J1 for the final margin.

“We knew in the fourth . quarter that we did not want

Dexter to get within striking distance with their ability to shoot the thrqe,” Blomquist said. “So, we played good team defense and we were able to push the ball after rebounds and turnovers and get some easy baskets.”

Keying the 8*0 run that broke the game open in the fourth was junior guard Ashley Gadbury, who had^ three points, including a steal and basket.

“Gadbury came out of nowhere,” Bavineau said, “She played well for them.”

Also sparking the team’s strong fourth quarter was freshman forward Emily Woodruff, who scored 11 points in the frame.

Chelsea coach Todd Blomquist said he had been waiting for Woodruff to final­ly show what she could do.

“Emily had been playing very well in practice, but had not shown what she could do in a game,” he said. “Bast night (last Thursday) washer breakout game.”

For the night, Woodruff scored a game-high 19 points.

Besides Woodruff, Chelsea was led by Mann, who pumped in 17 points.

Gadbury added 12 points, while Arnold chipped in six points and Arend four points.

Bounding out the Bulldogs’ scoring were senior Stephanie Minzey, senior

Courtney Bentley and junior Melissa Koch, with; two points each, and junior Devon Lixey with one point for the Bulldogs.

Kennedy! who finished with 14 points, and Howell, who had 12 points, led Dexter.

Blomquist said Chelsea focused on controlling the high-scoring Kennedy.

“We knew that Dexter runs a lot of their offense through Kennedy, so we concentrated on making sure she got as few touches as possible,” he said.

Rounding out the Dread­naughts’ scoring were Jenny Cowen, With six points on two triples; seniors Joan Snyder and Darcy Stoll and Anne Cowen, who each netted three points; and Seleska, who' ended up . with . two points.

Bavineau said he thought his team was impatient with the basketball.

“I felt like we rushed all

game,” he said. ‘‘We had over' 30 turnovers. You can’t win performing like that.”

On Sept. 17, Chelsea defeated Jackson Northwest 62-40.

Mann paced the Bulldogs with a double-double, scor­ing 23 points and hauling down 13 rebounds.

Arend added 10 points and six boards, while Gadbury and Bentley each netted six points.

Arnold dished out a team- high four assists.

Chelsea led 26-22 at half­time before outscoring the Mounties 19-4 in . the third quarter.

The Bulldogs forced 23 turnovers on the night.

Chelsea next hosts Ypsi- lanti Lincoln 7 p.m. today.

On Saturday, the Bulldogs travel to Temperance Bedford for a game at 7 p.m.

The running back scored both of Chelsea’s touch­downs, sparking the Bulldogs (34) to a 13-6. victory over the visiting Hornets.

Last second free throw sinks ChelseaBy Don RichterSports E d ito r

With 6.9 seconds left on the clock and the score tied at 25- 25, Dexter’s Maegan Michalik walked to the free-throw line for two shots..

After missing her first attempt, Michalik sank the second, giving the host Dreadnaughts a thrilling 26- 25 victory over Chelsea last Thursday.

The loss negated a gallant comeback by the Bulldogs, who trailed / 12-6 after one quarter and 16-10 at the half.

Heading into the final frame, Chelsea (1-6, 0-1) was behind 212-16. Despite out

scoring Dexter 9-4 in the fourth quarter, the Bulldogs couldn't overtake their coun­ty rivals in the end.

“(We) , had numerous chances to win, but poor free- throw shooting was instru­mental in the defeat,” said Chelsea coach Paul Terpstra.

For the game, the Bulldogs shot 32 percent from the charity stripe.

Conversely, the Dread- naughts finished 45 percent from the line.

Tri-captain forward Megan Korc paced Chelsea with a season-high 13 points and six rebounds.

Center Beckah Sauers ad­

ded five points and three boards, while guard Court­ney Alii chipped in four points.

Rounding out the Bulldogs' scoring were guard Liberty Dickerson, with two points, and guard Trisha Terns, with one point.

On Sept. 17, Chelsea lost to Jackson Northwest 42-26.

The Mounties ran out to a 13-5 first-quarter advantage before the Bulldogs roared back in the second stanza, out scoring Northwest 11-7. The Dawgs' rally closed the gap to 20-16 at the half.

In the third frame, Chelsea continued its fine play, net-

In Chelsea's youth football instructional game, for 7- to8-year-olds, the Bulldogs pre­vailed over Whitmore Lake18-12.

Quarterback Anthony Cat­alina and halfbacks Alex Parsons and Truman Hadley contributed to the team’s first victory.

In last week's game, the Bulldogs tied Hamburg 6-6 in a rugged defensive battle.

Scoring—Chelsea’s lone touchdown was Hadley. '

On defense, Joey Downey, Dylan Neff and Parsons each recorded four tackles, while Johnny Bell caused three

fumbles. Hadley also had three solo tackles in the Hamburg defense to help secure the tie.

In the Chelsea youth foot­ball freshman game last, week, the Bulldogs lost to Milford 7-0. ■,

In the hard-hitting game, Joey Dabrowski led Chelsea with 13 tackles, two forced fumbles and five quarter­back hurries.

Also contributing defen­sively for Chelsea were Luke Dehring, with 11 tackles; Zach Foster and Jeff Minzey, each with seven stops; and Dakota Cooley, with five tack­

ting 10 points, while holding the {Mounties to nine, Heading into the fourth quar­ter, the Bulldogs were behind by three points, 29-26.

In the final frame, howev­er, Northwest exploded for 13 points, while limiting Chelsea to two points, icing its victory.

Terpstra said the differ­ence in the game was 28 turnovers by Chelsea and inconsistent scoring;

As they did against Dexter, the Bulldogs struggled from the free-throw line, shooting 33 percent. The Mounties ended the game at 43 per­cent.

les and two forced fumbles.Dylan Beckett added four

stops, while Nathaniel Udell recorded three solo tackles and six assists.

Offensively, quarterback Cooley finished 5-of-ll pass­ing for 38 yards, while rush­ing for 36 yards. Halfback Ben Avila chipped in 32 yards on the ground for the Da^gs.

In the Chelsea youth foot­ball JYgame last week, the Bulldogs fell to Milford 33-6.

Defensively for the Bulldogs, nose guard Luke Midura led the way with four tackles and two quarterback

hurries. Teammates John Hillaker and Ben Koch each added five tackles.

Chelsea's lone score came on Koch’s 48-yard fumble return for a touchdown.

Offensively, Zach Giller paced the squad with 62 yards rushing, while Koch finished with 42 yards on the ground for the Bulldogs.

Booth Newspapers, Which operates The. Flint Journal announced v Saturday that. it has acquired the nine weekly papers of Heritage News» papers’ Suburban Flint Newspaper Group, part of the 21st Century N ewspapers Inc, ■ ' ‘ '

Effective Tuesday, Booth will take over the publica­tion of the weekly papers, which have a combined cir­culation of 84,000, and will distribute them oh a broad basis in Genesee County. Roger Samuel, publisher of The Flint Journal, will man­age the operation.

Terms of the cash transac­tion were not disclosed. Booth and 21st Century Newspapers, parent compa­ny of Heritage, are privately held firms. The Chelsea Standard and The Dexter Leader are part of 21st Century's Heritage News­papers division.

“We are pleased that this transaction will allow our weekly newspapers, which have proudly served their communities for as long as 120 years, to continue as a valuable community re­source,” said Frank H. Shepherd, chairman and CEO of 21st Century.

“With this acquisition, we will be able to serve the needs of residents through­out Genesee County better than ever,” Samuel said.

“We plan to publish week­lies with high-quality adver­tising and distribution. They are going to be fine weekly products.”

“Editorial; coverage will have greater readership than ever before;” Samuel said, “Small retailers, will continue to be able to adver­tise on a zoned, affordable basis. Larger advertisers will be able to reach the vast majority of households in the county with a single.eco­nomical buy.”

Samuel said that, as an example, Journal sub­scribers in Clio soon would begin receiving The, Clio Messenger as an extra sec­tion of their paper, while non-journal subscribers in Clio would receive the Messenger through separate delivery to their homes.

The Heritage papers in Flint currently employ 38 at their 3200 W. Bristol Road facility, according to General Manager parrel! Futo, who will transfer to Heritage’s central office in Southgate. All Flint-based employees will be offered a severance package and be given an opportunity to apply for employment with the hew management.

“I’m really proud of the excellent work o f our peo­ple,” Futo said. “They have helped us establish and maintain a vital communica-

>n link with the communi­ty.” '.'T " T '

Also included in the trans- ‘ action is Heritage’s Subur­ban. Flint shopper that the new management also plans to continue; It distributes to90,000 households per month, through separate weekly zoned mailings,

Heritage's weeklies in­volved in the transaction are The Clih Messenger, The Davison Flagstaff, The Fenton Press, The Grand Blanc NeWs, Flint Township News, The Flushing Obser­ver, The Holly Press, The Suburban Burton and Swartz Creek News.

Booth is part of a diversi­fied media company. In Michigan it publishes the eight Booth daily newspa­pers and an associated group of 13 weeklies in Kent and Ottawa counties. It is also affiliated with Mlive. com;

21st Century Newspapers Inc , headquartered in Pon­tiac, was formed in 1993 by Shepherd, Goldman Sachs Capital Partners II, L.P., and Kelso & Co. to capitalize on clustering opportunities within the suburban news-

aper industry in Michigan, he privately held compa­

ny’s four dailies, 97 weekly newspapers and shopping guides have a total circula­tion of more than two mil­lion in northern, eastern and southeastern Michigan.

Cultivating good study habits is one way.to achieve success at school, But hit­ting the books can pay off in more ways than one, espe­cially through a new auto insurance discount program offered by AAA Michigan.

Young drivers with good grades may be eligible to

receive up to 10 percent off their basic AAA Michigan auto insurance premium. The Good Student Discount is designed for Michigan drivers 16 to 24 years old who are full-time high school, home study, college or uni­versity students.

“Research has shown that

good students are generally good drivers,” said Steve Monahan, president of the Auto Club Insurance Association. “The Good Student Discount recognizes1 that fact by rewarding young drivers who do their home-

M Athletic boosters also receive permission fo r race.By Michael RybkaSpecial Writer

After months of delays, the Meijer store on Jackson and Zeeb roads and Lowe’s home improvement store received the go-ahea^ ft'Qm! the Scio Townshipfioard Sept. 17.

M eijer, was given.a new zoningdesignationthatw ill allow company officials to build a gas statiort bM cojK venience store ort the north-’’ west portion of the Meijer store lot on Jackson Road.

> Company officials and the township worked out their differences concerning . sewer connections and odpr control.

Meijer will connect to the municipal sewer by digging underneath Jackson Road, and will use a chemical sys­tem to control odor and ero­sion.

, Township Treasurer. Don-: ria Palmer and .trustees. J ames Cameronand Charles Ream said theiywere swayed by Meijer’s presentations showing that a gas station

was the'best solution to mini­mize additional traffic.

Local officials were also pleased with the cooperative relationship the . township and the company have forged over the months.

For the most part, board support fofr the proposal has grown steadily in the last sev­eral months. However, Trus­tee Jerry Schleicher came down against the project after remaning uncharacter­istically silent about the project ;:2r.,f“This. is a unique area with open space,” Schleicher skid; “and you have to give credit to Meijer’s architects for creating it; however, you don’t need a gas station at every comer.”

Schleicher said Meijer broke an agreement on limit­ing outdoor displays and he thinks store management will continue to violate the pact at the gas station site.

The move to approve the rezoning passed 5-1, with Schleicher against it. Trustee Gordon Darr was not at the meeting.

The board also approved a final site plan for Lowe’s to

build to the north of Jackson Road, west of Zeeb Road, behind Taco Bell and Arby's.

In another matter, the board voted to allow for an Oct, 19 joint Dexter and Chelsetk Athletic Booster fund-raising foot race to pass through less than a half a mile of roadway within the township.

The approval was condi­tional!; the petitioners using $tajt£ police traffic con­trol if needed rather than the Washtenaw County Sheriffs Department.

Schleicher brought up the issue at the board’s Sept; 11 meeting. He said he would no longer support any event that detracts firom the general public welfare by using the township's • contracted deputies.

Supervisor E. Spaulding Clark agreed. He said at the Sept. 17 meeting that he found a state statute that gives local municipalities a degree of power over state and local roads in cases of special events.

erly. If they aren’t built or main­tained right they can become sparrow slums, remain unused, or actually become a death trap to nesting birds and mammals.

Here are other tips to consider before starting these small- scale construction* proj­ects: ...

IBuild for specific birds, because differ­ent species have dif­ferent house-size and entrance-hole require ments. Provide^ a hinged side or roof so the house can be checked easily and cleaned each year.

•Use at least four 1/4-inch diameter drain holes in the bottom of houses, except for the Peterson bluebird house, which has a sloping floor and swing-door front to allow drainage.

•Though wren houses can be sus­pended from eaves or tree Umbs, firmly attach all other houses to a support post, building, or tree. On trees, use lag screws and washers that can be unscrewed to allow for tree growth.

•Don’t put perches on houses because only house sparrows and European starlings prefer them. A wood .slab with bark can be placed horizontally under the entrance of a wood duck or common merganser hole to make it easier for landing at the entrance.

•Allow the top-front edge to over­hang at least two inches to help pro­tect entrance holes from wind-driven

rain and to keep cats from reaching up from above.

•Drill at least two 1/4-inch holes near the top of the right and left

sides, except in duck boxes, to pro­vide ventilation. Recess the

floor 1/4-in. up from the bot­tom of the sides to help

prevent deterioration from moisture.

' •Softwoods such as pine, is fine for smaller

nests, cedar, red­wood^ pr cypress

may be used for larger boxes. Pine or plywood be used for duck boxes

if it is treated on the out­side with wood preservative or painted. Don’t use creosote or green preservative,•Use galvanized bails, if neces­

sary, but remember that they loosen as wood expands and contracts. Cement-coated or ring-shanked nails a re best with 'cedar and redwood houses; they won't allow the boards to loosen.

•Unwanteds — including mice, squirrels, v bees, and ..wasps — may take up residencejn houses. If wasps take over, remove the nest and spray the interior with a disinfectant like Lysol, being careful not to get stung. If ants invade, place a commercial ant killer in an upside-down pop bot­tle cap.under the nest.

•When nesting season is over, open the front or side of songbird,houses and leave them open during winter to keep deer mice from nesting. The

This spring, homeowners can reduce allergens that trigger allergies and asthma from their home by following cleaning tips provided by The Maids, an international residential cleaning service, which specializes in cleaning for health.

•Vacuum end dry-clean draperies. If possible, purchase machine washable draperies so they, can he washed fre^ quently in l&J-degree water.

cloth fomiture with slipcovers so they can be cleaned regularly.

•Deter ante by washing counters, cabinets and floors with equal parts of vinegar and water. ' ' .

•To prevent mildew from forming in your refrigerator; wipe the inside with vinegar: The acid effectively kills mildew fungus. .

•Place doormats inside your entry* ways as well as outside your doors to reduce the amount of nutside dirt that gets tracked in. /

•Throw away pileB of newspaper, clean up any food crumbs and fix con­tinuous water sources such as leaky faucets arid pipe condensation. These are attractions to cockroaches. Cockroach debris is a strong allergen.

•Clean your air conditioner and change the fllteraccordingto the man­ufacturer's directions* Moldthrivesin cooling systems and pollen gets trapped in the filters. -

How do you choose lawn seed from the many kinds available? After visit­

ers, I've come up with the fbljtpwing “dummy" guidelines for buying grass seed.

There you are, standing in front of the shelf frill of various seed to re­establish some of those not-so-perfect areas of your lawn.

There are several hey words used to lure you to buy a particular seed. A common phrase on several bags is “quick green," or maybe “fast grass’ or something of the sort. / '

If you flip the bag over and take a glance at the seed label, you are likely to see that the majority of thb seed is annual ryegrass. ~

Annual ryegrass is just that, annual. I t . germinates rapidly and will grow throughout the suinmer, but when win­ter comes, it will die and won't beback next y e a r . ....

Some could survive for a second sea­son, but the majority, will die. Some­times, annual; ryegrass, is used as a cover crop late In the fall until the pre-; ferred turfgrass can be. planted.the fol­lowing spring, but tw buld nOtrecom-; mend planting it a t this time of the year. ^ :

So what makes these products con­taining annual ryegrass appealing to the undiscrimihating consumer? Cost. The seed sources containing annual ryegrass Usuaily are the cheapest on

' the she# ;Another keyword on seed bags is

“tough" Or “for high-tramc. areas/.’

This usually means the bag contains tall fescue, a very- drought-tolerant, deep-rooted grass. Tall fescue is becoming popular because it with­stands drought better than Kentucky bluegrass.

If you are going to establish your entire yard with tall fescue, I say go for it. However, if you, are looking to reseed small areas in your Kentucky bluegrass. lawn, I would caution you to maybe try a small area first because one of the biggest differences between tell fescue and Kentucky bluegrass is the leaf blade width, or what we tur­tles call texture.

Most of the new, improved tall fes­cues have a narrow leaf blade not much different from Kentucky blue­grass, but not knowing actually what cultlvar of tall; fescue is in the bag, I would advise caution.

The last thing most people desire is a lawn that looks “clumpy " with spots ; of tall fescue and Kentucky bluegrass intermixed throughout the lawn. If you are seeding large areas, check with your Michigan State University exten­sion service about the new tall fescue varieties.. Another bag at the local discounter that caught my eye was one that adver­tised your lawn will look like the fair­ways of a famous California golf course.

Upon examining the seed label on the back, I discovered that this bag contained all perennial ryegrass. It is a good turfgrass commonly used on golf course fairways in many parts of the nation but is not widely used in Michigan.

Perennial tyegrass is quick to estab­lish, but it is a bunch grass, rather than a grass that spreads like Kentucky bluegrass, and ifyou have a highly traf­ficked lawn (kids and dogs), it will not recover as fast..

Perennial, ryegrass also can get dis­eases like rust, but it definitely has its place as a component in a mixture con­taining Kentucky bluegrass.

However, my advice is to leave the bags containing 100 percent perennial ryegrass for those golf courses in California. . '. < So' what about the sunny and shade mixes commonly seen on the shelves? Well, In these you can trust

The. shade mix is usually composed of Kentucky bluegrass and some com­bination, of fine fescues (hard,chewing or sheep fescue}. All of the fine fescues have a very fine leaf bladC and per­form well in shaded environments; .

The sunriy mix is usually composed of Kentucky bluegrass, perennial rye­grass and probably creeping red fes­cue; v. ' ’■

My final piece of advice on buying lawn seed is to splurge and buy quali­ty seed (see the following tips on read­ing a seed label). Usually, by paying a little more for a bag of seed you’ll get newer, improved cultivars and less weed seed.

Paying more for the seed now may result in a better lawn down the line.

C on tin u ed froth P age 3It’s that time of year again when the

claims of the ultimate miracle grass for your lawn are showing up in the newspapers In most cases the turf- grass deemed to be the “chosen one” is zoysiagrass iZoysid japonica).

Don’t get me wrong, zoysiagrass is a line turfgrass in some areas of the country, I just don’t recommend it for Michigan.

The problem with zoysiagrass in Michigan is that it grows best in tem­peratures ranging from 80 to 95 degrees. Another trait of a warm sea­son turfgrass is that it will quickly turn brown after the first frost in the fall and probably stay brown until some­time in May.

If you like green grass in the fall and early spring, zoysia isn’t for you, If I still haven’t convinced you, consider that zoysia is usually established from vegetative plugs of about 11/2 to 2 inch­es in diameter. The plugs would .be planted in the lawn and stolen growth from the plugs would eventually cover all the bare areas.

Trust me on this one, this works great in warm, sunny climates, but in Michigan I would beg to differ. Stick to good p ie ’ Kentucky bluegrass and ignore the siren song of the miracle grass.

TIPS FOR READING A SEED LABEL

The key to choosing quality turfgrass seed is to understand the information on the seed label. The seed label, or, tag, as it may be referred to, usually is found on the back of a bag of seed,

The label contains valuable infor­mation, including the ciiltivars, purity, germination percentage, crop seed,

weed seed, inert material, noxious weeds and date tested. The following terms are included on seed labels.

CIILTIVARS: The simplest tip is to look for specific cultivar names and not only Kentucky bluegrass or tall fes­cue. Named cultivars are superior in many traits to common types.

PURITY: The percent by weight of the particular cultivar seed, For exam­ple, Mackinac Kentucky bluegrass has a purity of 75 percent.

GERMINATION: The perqent of pure seed that germinates under ideal conditions. Simple guidelines are to never purchase seed with less than 70 percent germination. The higher the germination percentage, the better.

CROP: Crop is the seed o f any Other commercially grown grass crop. Crop could include grasses such as orchard- grass, timothy, clover or bentgrass. High-quality turfgrass seed should contain no other crop seed or, at the most, 1 percent.

WEED: The percent by weight of weed seed. This is any seed that is not pure or crop seed. Ideally, Seed should contain no weed seed, but some weed seed seems to always find its way through the screening process, so look for a value less than 1 percent.

INERT: The percentage, by weight, of material other, than seed. This might, include chaff, corncobs, sand or soil. Look for a value less than 4 percent.

NOXIOUS WEEDSt These are weeds particularly difficult to control > and are declared noxious by some states. It is illegal to sell seed containing nox­ious weeds, If they are present, they must be listed by name.

Fall is quickly approaching, and the cooler weather in Michigan usually provides a greet opportunity to com-

Before you tackle the faded surface of your home’s exterior, it’s important to prepare the surface in order to assure that the new paint will last.

There’s an old adage that gods some­thing tike this: "It's too late to drain the swamp when you’re up to your elbows in alligators."

Homeowners who are painting their houses may feel that the swamp should have been drained long ago because they can face many problems—includ­ing “alligatoring.”

But “alligatoring” and other prob­lems can be fixed and even prevented with good advice and proper prepara­tion.

When painting the exterior of your home* there are five major suiface problems that may need to be addressed. These include alligatoring, chalking, efflorescence, color fading and galvanized metal peeling. These problems are serious, but they can be fixed and prevented. .

ALLIGATORING is a condition characterized by Wide cracks in paint that resemble alligator scales.

The most common causes include oil-based paints that age and start cracking, a topcoat that doesn’t bond- smoothly to a glossy undercoat, insuffi­cient drying time between coats, or using a hard coating with a soft primer.

The best way to get rid of alligators is to powerwash the surface thorough-. ly, scrape any loose areas, spot-sand and prime, and then paint with a high- quality primer/flnish coat*

Chalking is heavy powdering that appears over time when paint is exposed to the elements. Severe chalk­ing also can occur if paint is spread too thinly when applied. •

The best way to remove the chalky powder before painting is with apow- erwasher or wire brush. If the problem is severe, a chalk-binder coat may be. needed. A good primer and tbp-quality exterior paint can drastically reduce the chances of chalking.

Efflorescence appears on masonry, houses when too much moisture is present and crusty salt deposits

appear on the surface. The best way to battle efflores­cence is to eliminate niois- ture sources that cause the problem. ■

When propping the sur­face, it is important to remove all loose paint with n wire brush and patch any holes in the masomy. Use a

masonry primer/sealer to re­duce the risk of reoccurrence.

Fading or color retention is an early loss of color caused by

direct sunlight Yellows, reds and other lighter paints suffer

from this problem more than darker cblors. AIT colors fade

over time; but inferior paints fadh sooner; After cleaning

surfaces, apply a primer and a high-quality paint to help colors last for years.

Galvanized metal - peelingVoften is caused by poor surface prepa­ration. Xb fix the prob­

lem, remove all loose - paint, rust and other debris,, and then apply a n . acrylic, corrosion- resistant prim er to prevent

foture problems.Courtesy of ABA

temples because of its symbolic mean­ing.

In modern times, architectural design with bright, airy spaces and nat­ural light was popularized by Frank Lloyd Wright, who said, ‘The best way to light a home is God’s way.”\ Today, advanced window technology makes it possible to use natural light to its fullest advantage. Windows are important architectural' elements, affecting a home’s style and personali­ty, inside and out.

JNTot surprisingly, modern windows and doors have evolved tp become more beautiful than ever. No longer just square frames with glass, windows are a form of personal expression;

Circleheads and unique muntip designs are popular ways to “design with light” Windows and doors also function to bring the outdoors in and make a space feel larger.

decause of a design trend toward light, open rooms, windows and doors.

are increasingly becoming focal points of home remodeling projects.

In a more extensive remodeling project, a traditional picture window can be replaced with a charming bay window. A breakfast nook is tucked into an existing kitchen by adding win­dows that curve in a graceful bow.

French hinged doors with overhead transoms take the place of a row of windows in a dining room. Skylights are a popular choice for adding light to baths, bedrooms and other rooms where privacy is important.

Besides aesthetics, there are two other major benefits of daylighting.

The first is energy savings. Espec­ially on a bright/ sunny day, effective daylighting potentially reduces the need for electric lights, Which are usu­ally generated at the expense of a noh- renewable resource. Even using dim­mer switches for a combination of

Customers often ask me how they know if they really need The Gutter Helmet. I answer that their own gut- ters ere talking to them right now—all they have to do is open their eyes and listen!

First of all, any home with mature trees or pines and rain gutters needs Gutter Helmet. But don’t take my word for it. If you want furtherproof, look to your own gutter system.

Look at the face of your gutters. If you notice dirt build-up and dark ver­tical lines on the getter faces, it means that the downspouts are blocked up. Rainwater, having no where to go, just sits in your gutters. The standing water leeches the tannins and tannic acids from the leaves and pine needles trapped in the gutters. The next time it rains, this nasty brew will wash over your gutters, making them look dirty— which they are. But you have a bigger problem going on here than just appearance. As this process voceurs again and again, the dirt marks and vertical lines get bigger and darker. These natural acids are chemically etching the factor finish on your gut­ters. Permanent damage can be done

to the baked enamel paint finish and no amount of scrubbing will restore it.

Glitter Helmet will stop this process the moment it is installed. Gutter Hemet will keep your downspouts clear and your rain gutters clean for­ever-guaranteed.

Loose Or missing gutter spikes or gutters pulling away from the fascia board are signs that weight and stress of ice, water, and snow are damaging your gutters. Your gutters can be knocked completely off your house.

Gutter Helmet will gently lift and strengthen your entire gutter system e and snow and everything else out of your gutters.

There are many benefits to having a properly functioning gutter and down­spout system protected by Gutter Helmet.

Choosing a floor covering can be a difficult task. Carpeting? Tile? Wood? The choices are almost infinite.

Wood floors are gaining in populari­ty, particularly with some of the new technology that has resulted in lami­nate flooring, layers of thin wood sandwiched together and topped with either a wood veneer or a composite material.

Wood floors come in two varieties: unfinished, which needs sanding, staining and sealing; and factory fin­ished. Unfinished floors are less expensive on the shell but require sanding and sealing, and labor costs for these can drive up the price. It also can be a dusty, noisy, and time-con­suming proposition.: However, withunfinished hardwood flooring, the color and finish choices are unlimited, making it far easier to match existing woodwork.

Factory finished floors cost more on the shelf, but once the floor has been laid, it is completed for the most part. Color choices are more limited, but a factory finish can foe a superior result compared to those applied on site;

Laminate floors also are included in the “factory finished” category. Laminates are mbre durable than reg­ular. wood flooring but have a very thin wear-layer,.which means if the top layer is worn Or destroyed the entire board is worthless.

Fuli-thickhess flooring can be resanded., and finished because its wear-layer is much thicker.

Once a floor finish is determined, the grade of wood must be selected. At the top is “clear” whichis free of large knots andother defects.

Common (or No. 2) grade has more knots and variations in color. The low­est grade creates a rustic effect, and is

called utility.This grade may contain large knots

and Worm holes. A wider board, called plank flooring, comes in widths of up to 12 inches. Larger widths drive the price per square foot up dramatically.

There are many species of wood used in wood flooring, but all fall into one of two groups: hard wood and soft wood. A rule of thumb is that soft wood trees produce needles and hard wood trees produce leaves.

Fine is the most common soft wood. While it is susceptible to gouges and dents, it is available in very wide widths and styles.

Fir and ash offer.a harder alterna­tive in the soft wood category. Heart pine has a luxurious red hue that is perfect for a colonial look. Soft woods generally contain a wider grain pat­tern. ■;

Redand white oak define hardwood flooring. Hardwood will have a tighter grain pattern arid is much more resist­ant to foot traffic and furniture.

Oak is a classic looking, strong stable wood. Red oak finishes with a pinkish hue while white oak tends to foe more' brown after staining. Mapleds another hardwood. Its light grain pattern arid soft look are appealing. }

A white oak,.clear’grade With a fac­tory walnut finish gives a\ modem, clean hardwood floor appearance.

A wide-plank pine floor, utility grade. with plenty of knots and wormholes and a hand-rubbed paste-wax finish brings guests to your home into Colonial Williamsburg. - . .

If you’re looking for a qualified pro­fessional to inspect a house you are selling or looking to buy, it is impor­tant to know that the state of Michigan does not regulate or license home inspectors. Any Joe in the state can hang up a shingle and call themselves a home inspector - with no qualifica­

tions, training, or experience in the. field

So the National Association of Home Inspectors (NAHI) recommends that you choose your home inspector careftilly and ensure that the inspector is a member of a non-profit trade asso­ciation, such asNAHI.

You need to be able to trust that the person inspecting your home knows

.what he is talking about.After 30years as a mechanic, making

sure people’s cars ran well, William Layher has turned his attention and energy to making sure people’s future homes don’t hold any nasty surprises.

Layher, a Saline resident, began House Detective Inspections 3 years ago after undergoing more .than 80 hours of intensive training at the America Home Inspectors Training Institute in Wisconsin.

“Before buying a car, people will have their mechanic give it a bumper to bumper inspection,” says Layher. “With a new home, you’re making a much bigger investment, and you should want the same kind of attention given to it as you would a new car,”

Along with regular buyer and seller inspections, House Detective Inspections’ services include a radon inspection, a well and septic inspec­tion, and a home check-up. ..

“The home check-up is a service I offer for people who want to maintain, their homes,” says Layher. ; ?

The inspection is of the same detail and thoroughness as a new home inspection. ; Layher will look at the

grounds, the foundation, the roof and gutters, the attic, basement, insulation, electrical, visible interior and exterior plumbing, central air and heating sys­tem, the garage - the whole shfebang. The homeowner receives a report right on the spot as well as a home preservation booklet that provides additional checklists the homeowner can refer to over the next year.

Layher recommends this type of inspection every other year or so as a good way to provide a homeowner with peace of mind about the condition of the house.

He suggests that buyers of new homes have the inspection done before their warranty expires. Warranties from builders have dwin­dled from 2 years to one in many cases, according to Layher.

“You don’t want to get stuck with the Costs of repairs once the warranty runs : out,” he says. .. : ■'Y:

Layher also offers radon inspec­tions. Radon is decaying uranium and is tasteless, colorless, and odorless. According to the EPA, Washtenaw County is a hotbed of radon contami-

The National Arbor Day Foundation started in 1972 as a nonprofit educa­tional organization dedicated to tree planting and environmental steward­ship.

The foundation publishes informa­tion on identifying and planting trees, as well as offering free seedling trees to help homeowners get their own arbors started.

Here are some guidelines for plant­ing trees.

frees iii containersIf a tree is planted correctly, it will

grow twice as fast and live at least twice as long as one that is planted incorrectly.

Ideally, dig or rototill an area one foot deep and approximately five times the diameter of the root ball. The pre­pared soil will encourage root growth beyond the root ball and results in : a healthier tree.

In transplanti­ng, be. sure to keep soil around the roots. Always handle your^tree by the ball, not by the trunk or branches. Don't let the root ball dry out. Help prevent root girdling by vertically cutting any roots that show tendencies to circle the root ball. After placing the tree, pack soil firmly but hot tightly around the root ball. Water the soil and place a protec­tive 3-foot circle of muleh around the tree. . / ' "v '

Bare-root tree plantingIt: is best to plant bare-root trees

immediately, in order to keep the frag­ile roots from drying out. If you can’t plant because of weather or soil condi­tions, store the trees in a cool place and keep the roots moist. '' Unpack tree and soak iii; water six to 12 hours, bo not plant with packing materials attached to roots, and do not allow roots to dry out, Dig a hole* wider than seems necessary, so the roots can spread without crowdirigciReittove any,, grass within a 3-foot circular area. To aid root growth* turn soil in an'area up to threefeet indiameter.

Plant tte tree at the same depth it

stood in the nursery, without crowding the roots. Partially fill the hole, firm­ing the soil around the lower roots. Do not add extra soil amenities.

Shovel in the remaining soil. It should be firmly, but not tightly, packed with your heel. Construct a water-holding basin around the tree. Give the tree plenty of water. After the water has soaked in, place a 2-inch deep protective mulch area three feet in! diameter around the base of the tree (but not touching the trunk). Water the tree generously every Week or 10 days during the first year.

Mulch .Mulch is a tree’s best friend. It insu?

lates soil, retains moisture, keeps out weeds, pre­vents soil com­paction, reduces lawnmower dam­age, and adds an aesthetic touch to a yard or street. Remove any grass within the imiich area, ah area from 3-10 feet in d i am e t e r , depending on tree size. Pour , Woo'd chips or bark , pieces 24 inches within the

circle, but not touching the trunk.To help in choosing the trees that are

right for your region, The National Arbor. Day Foundation has put togeth­er What Tree Is That, a popular tree identification guide that is fun and easy to use.

This handy booklet comes in two edi­tions, one for trees commonly found in the Eastern and Central United States, and the other for Western states, or those from the RoOky Mountains to the WestCoast. Each is available for $3.

These comprehensive, pocket-sized guideshelp you identify trees based on their leaves, flowers, fruit', and twig 'characteristics, among Other things, information is cross-referenced, and clearly illustrated to make it even handier, and the booklet also contains., information on Hardiness zones acrossr the United States, and a glossary of: common tree terms, fraerloving travei- ers often, buy both Eastern and Western editions.

These are also great for parents driv­ing across country with school age chil­dren. Have the kids identify and report on all of the new trees they see. It’s a fun and educational way to make trav­eling more enjoyable. Reward them for the most new trees identified, the

most unusual, etc. You’ll keep peace in the back seat and maybe learn some­thing yourself.

To order, send check or money order to The National Arbor Day Founda­tion, 100 Arbor Avenue, Nebraska City, NET68410, and be sure to specify which edition you’re requesting.

•Cities without trees are “heated islands.” Adding 100 million addition­

al mature trees in U.S. cities would save $4 billion per year in energy costs.

•A windbreak can lower home heat­ing bills up to 30 percent.

• Shade trees planted east and west of your home can cut cooling costs 15 to 35 percent.

• Trees remove air pollutionby lowering air temperature, ^ *through respiration, and by \ retaining particulates.

• Trees can increase, the property value of your home 15 percent or more.

• Trees support many generations of birds and other wildlife and improve the wildlife communities.

Layher suggests a homeowner should have a radon test done, every few years because the level of radon can change with the seasohs.. ■ And with the changing season, here is Layher’s checklist to prepare your home for winter:

•Drain outside,water lines and hoses;•Clean area wells, window wells, and stornt drains;. •Check weather-dripping on door and windows for damage

and tightness of fit; ,•Check vents, louvers, and chlmhey caps and housings for

bird nests, debris and other clogging material;.. • Sweep debris fyom flat and low slope roofs; : -> ■

•Check all joints in ceramic tile, laminated plastic, and sim­ilar surfaces;- •Check grouting around tubs, showers, and sinks;

•Check condition of lamp cords, extension cords, and plugs. •Replace at first sign of wear or damage;

•Test ground fault circuit interrupters;•Clean dirt and dust from around furnaces;

1 • Remove window air conditioners for winter.

Commercial and retail properties are discovering that these savings can add up to tens of thousands of dollars per year, In addition, the pleasing effect of natural light also has the potential to increase retail sales. Customers like the brighter, warmer atmosphere it creates and may shop longer—and buy more.

M ake the m ost o f a kitchen makeover“No. matter where I serve my

guests, it seems they like my kitchenbest."

Kitchens have been called the heart of the home, and traditionally have been gathering places for fami­lies,, even with the busy lifestyles of today.

That’s one reason why you want to consider not just the “do’s,” but also the “donVs" when it comes to remod­eling or even redecorating your kitchen.

Here are a few mistakes to avoid:• Don’t be tempted by trends,

What’s fashion able today might not be practical in the long run, so it’s crucial to assess your family’s needs before falling in love'With that maga­zine layout.

For example, stainless steel appli­ances have been hot items for the last few years becaiise of their high-tech, professional look and durability. But on large surfaces, they can be painfully hard to maintain. One beau­tiful dishwasher might be enough, but a big double refrigerator might be the wrong place for stainless steel.

“ I No m a i l e r w h e r e I s e r v e m y que s ts , i(

s e e m s l l i e v l i k e i m k i t c h e n b e s l . ^

It’s also important to make sure your kitchen fits with the design of the rest of the home. Don’t make the mistake of putting a year 20Q1 kitchen info a 1912 house.

•Don’t dwell on price. If you plan to stay in your house or apartment for a long time, it pays to invest in quality appliances that last.

Quiet appliances have* a big payoff today, particularly with open-plan kitchens being a good fit with the modem lifestyle.

• Don’t let a contractor design your kitchen. Experts contend that if you’re going to fork over thousands of dollars to redo your kitchen, paying a few hundred dollars for advice from an experienced designer is well worth the money.

•Don’t be afraid of color. Rather: than going with a completely match­

ing kitchen-white cabinets, white countertops, white appliances and a white floor—experiment with color. If you’re afraid of putting top much color in the kitchen, at least intro­duce it in small areas, like in the backsplash or towels. ^

• Don’t rush into anything. Take your time. Put various floor plans on paper and then mentally walk through the room, preparing a meal in each. That way, potential glitches show up before you build, when you can refine the layout to eliminate them.

•Don’t listen to friends until you’ve done your homework. When you redesign your kitchen, everyone will offer an opinion.

So scour magazines and learn as much as you can. ;

• Don’t be close-minded. It’s often

possible to move a doorway or win­dow to come up with a more efficient floor plan that solves many of the. problems of your current layout.

• Don’t plan your kitchen for the 5 percent of time you use it. Plan for the 90 percent of time you’re in there. For example, you might not need a second oven for a turkey that you roast just on Thanksgiving. And it’s not necessary to invest in a profes­sional range unless you intend to spend a lot of time cooking.

• Don’t over-design. The kitchen is by nature an active, busy room with plenty of gadgets—a toaster, a paper- towel holder and cookie jars. If you over-orchestrate the design, you’ll regret it.

• Don’t plan just for today’s lifestyle. Think future. You might need a space for a high chair now, but will you need it for the next 15 or 20 years? And don’t forget about tech­nology. Consider reserving space for a computer or a television in ydur kitchen.

W hat’s cook in ’?It’s big, it’s bad, it’s dirty, and it’s in

your kitchen. 'No, it’s not a sequel to a popular hor­

ror movie—it’s your range.Whether you’re a “do-it-yourselfer”

remodeling a kitchen or a new home- owner, your budget can run out long before those old, worn-looking appli­ances. • ■

Of the three major appliances in the kitchen, the range takes the most abuse — with years of scrubbing and burned-on spills.

Fortunately, if you have a range that has seen better days, there Is a very affordable alternative to buying a new oner-make it look (and cook) like new by replacing worn-out and damaged parts.

Range Kleen, a manufacturer of replacement parts since 1971, has given homeowners an option to the expense and environmental impact of appliance replacement with replace­ment parts made like the parts origi­nally sold to appliance manufacturers.

Regardless of the model and brand,

almost everything can be replaced or upgraded. This includes drip bowls, pans and trim rings'for gas and elec­tric ranges in shiny chrome.

Chrome actually reflects the heat and speeds up the cooking process by 30 percent. Research has shown that by utilizing clean drip bowls and pans, consumers can actually save up to $18 per year due to increased cooking effi­ciencies.

Stick-free porcelain drip bowls and pans that match the color of the major­ity of range tops in hbmes are now available in designer colors of black, almond and white. Even if you’re not remodeling and are just tired of scrub­bing those old dirty drip pans on your range, you can replace them.

Does your range have an element or knob that Is broken? A variety of replacement knots will fit almost any gas or electric range, and are available in black* white and chrome. With over sixteen heating elements to choose from, there’s no need to purchase a new range because of an element not

working properly.Range Kleen didn’t forget the oven

either. Three different types of broiler pans and grills allow you to cook much healthier.

The company’s all new convection broiler pan and grill has a stick-free porcelain finish, making it easy to clean, speeding up broiling time with a slotted pan that helps the heat circu­late for quicker, more even cooking.

With today’s hectic schedules, many families eat in shifts. In response to this trend, Range Kleen developed-a smaller broiler pan and grill that is actually a 9-ineh-by-13-inch baking pan and a broiler pan in one.

For kitchens that are storage-space challenged, the -pan bottom is deep

enough to bake dishes like lasagna, brownies, and such. Place the grill on top, and you have a broiler pan and grill. A wide variety of broiling and baking elements are also available for the oven.

Many other items, such as coordinat­ing stove/counter mats and canister sets, dustpans, wastebaskets, appli­ance brushes and the Fat Trapper, are available. Perfect for use with indoor grilling machines, the Fat Trapper: is a container for disposing of unwanted

are easy to dispose of when full.To And out more about Range Kleen’s
