District millage may help county stabilize funding for Township's new library system By Marc Popiolek Contributing Writer

Fol lowing last y e a r ' s

chaotic attempt to find fund-ing for the Kent County Li-brary system, the library board has suggesteda new district library system for

townships in Kent County. Lowell T o w n s h i p re-

ceived a letter from the li-

brary board detailing plans for installing the district sys-

tem throughout the county.

The library board would

like to have the system estab-

lishedbyJuly L i t i s the in ten t of the board to have all 26

participating township mem-bers involved in the district system.

The library board has

broken the townships into eight groups. Lowell Town-ship will be in group four with Bowne Township, the cityof Lowell and Vergennes

Township. The district library sys-

tem would be run by a district

library board which would consist of eight members,

each appointed to a four-year

term.

The county of Kent will

be the official appointing

body for the District Library

Board. The appointments will be made based on recom-mendations received from the

township units in each group. Funding for the district

system will be through a millage approved by voters

of each district in the separate groups. The Iibrary board has

recommended that a millage

Stating the market would not bare the monies needed to update its store to that of its compet i to r . P l u m b ' s an-

nounced that itwillbeclosing

its doors in Lowell effective

March 12. "Based on our projections,

the Lowell market could not economically support the improvements needed to up-

grade the store's standards," said Plumb's vice president

of operations. Dale Domsten. P l u m b ' s f i rs t came to

Lowell in July of 1992 as part of a package acquisition. P l u m b ' s purchased eight Eberhard Stores (including the one in Lowell).

There are currently 20 P l u m b ' s ou t l e t s in West

Michigan. Domsten said the decision

to close the Lowell Plumb's store is not an indication of how all the branches are do-

ing. "Lowell is a one-and-a-

half store town which isn't enough to bring the store to

w h e r e it needs to be , "

Domsten said. Plumb'ss t ruckadeal with

Family Fare which calls for it to purchase the equipment from the store and to share in a percentage of the cost of the

Plumb's current lease agree-ment. Family Fare Chairman

of the Board, Don Koop, said he believed the lease was for

approximately eight years. Plumb's and Family Fare

will work together to find a retailer to sublet the build-

ing. Domsten said he did not

believe the building would remain empty long. "There has been interest shown in the building," he said.

Koop said it currently has three or four projects going and felt that some of the equipment it will purchase from Plumb's will fit in at several of those locations.

The rest of it would have to be sold at auctions.

Currently Plumb's has 32 associates working at the Lowell store, 11 of which are

full-time. Domsten said the full-time

employees would be offered

positions at other Plumb's lo-cations. Family Fare also agreed to interview any full or part-time Plumb employ-ees interested in working at

Family Fare. Family Fare store manager

Larry Coleman said that with Plumb's closing, he would

add 12-15 new employees. Coleman has interviewed

three part-time Plumb em-

ployees already. With the change, Koop

said Lowell 's Family Fare store would remain open for the summer holidays. "De-pending on just how much extra business there is, we may decide to extend its m o r n i n g a n d / o r e v e n i n g hours," he said.

Currently, Koop said,the store chain is committed to not opening up on Sunday.

As for the sale of beer and

alcohol, Koop said he be-lieved there are enough other outletsin Lowell that it would

not be necessary. "I think the business could help other stores in the Lowell area."

Hill's Shoe Store owner Gordon Hill knows the war

will wage on. He also knows he won his

most recent business assess-ment battle with the city of Lowell.

"I 'm tickled todeath," Hill

said. " I 'm now two-of-cight in these assessment battles."

The City assessed Hill 's

Shoe Store b u s i n e s s at $18,500. Hill fought the as-

sessment. "1 took it to the

Lansing Tribunal and asked that a judge decide," Hill

said. The judge did and spoke

in favor of Hill, lowering the assessment to $ 14,088 or a

total savingsof $8,824 a year. 'The city assessor is kill-

ingthe downtown. Nothing's done to the downtown area to improve it, but the assess-

ments continue to rise," Hill

said. "When will they get it right and improve the down-town area and then raise the

assessments?" Lowell city assessor Jim

Marfia said Hill and others

don't understand that assess-ments are not made based on

improvements. "The law states that as-

sessments must be 50 percent

of the market value," Marfia says. "So as long as the mar-ket value goes up each year,

so will assessments."

Cumberland in the "market" for a new beer and wine license By Marc Popiolek Contributing Writer

Hoping to be the first store

in Lowell Township to sell beer and wine on a take-out basis, die Cumberland Mar-

ket asked the township for a

license to do so. T o w n s h i p S u p e r v i s o r

John Timpson informed Jeff Roy, owner of die market, dial he could not grant him die

license now because his signs were not within the guideline

of die township's sign ordi-

nance. "His big sign is fine, but

die small signs made of ply-

wood go against die ordi-

nance," said Timpson.

Timpson informed Roy

that he could go to tlie Lowell

Township Board of Appeals

and ask for a variance. If die board grants him this variance,

Timpson says die township board will look into his re-

quest.

According to Timpson,

Roy feels die small signs are

necessary to draw in people. "He feels traffic travels so fast

by his place Uiat die big sign is

not enough and since he put

up die small sign ,his business

has done better," he said.

Another issue die town-

ship board would like to dis-cuss widi Roy before looking

at his application is whether

his commercial driveway is bonded. Currently, die drive-

way is not widiin die ordi-

nance for a commercial drive-way, but if it is bonded Timpson feels he can work

out an arrangement.

Timpson says diis method

of granting licenses is com-

mon in die area. "We have to do diis widi a

lot of business in die area in

order to get diem to comply

widi our ordinances," said

Timpson.

D ick Huve r , Lowe l l

T o w n s h i p board t rus tee ,

agrees widi Timpson. "If we

don't enforce our ordinances

widi die Cumberland Market,

odiers in die township can say we didn't enforce our ordi-

n a n c e with t h e m , s o why

should you widi me," he said.

All of die board members

said diey would like to see

Roy ' s bus iness b e c o m e a success, but diey also want it

to fall widiin die township's ordinances.

127 N. Broadway Lowell, Michigan

Hie board rejected die first updated Light Industrial or-dinance, saying it was too re-s t r ic t ive and c o p i e d the

Planned Urban Development ordinance.

Board officials feel if an

ordinance is too restrictive, it can prevent development. In preventing development, a township c<in be taken to court.

Carol Wieland, Planning Commission and Township Board trustee, says die first thought of die board is diat if

die township has gotten along widi diecurrentordinance diis

long, it can go a little longer.

She went on to explain diat die board believes if die Light Industrial ordinance is too

restrictive," it may be viewed

diat diis township is trying to dead stop any influx of new industry to die area."

However, the Planning Commission says the current ordinance is not restrictive enough and a happy medium

must be met between die board

and commission. The control die commis-

sion wants is to insure diat any

light industrial facility is de-

veloped die way the township

wants and not the way die developer wants.

"We have to make sure diat a light industrial facility follows die guidelines diat

would beneficial to die town-ship," said Planning Com-

miss ion Secre ta ry D a v i d Simmonds.

The Planning Commis-sion agreed diat die area is ideal for a light industrial fa-cility, but that die facility must be to the liking of residents in Lowell Township.

"If we're going to have it (a light industrial facility), we have to have it so people will

want it in our township," said Planning Commission trustee

Richiird Bryan.

Bryan pointed out that the land designated as "Light In-dustrial," off of 1-96 and on die comer M-21 and Cascade Rd., falls under die guidelines of die Light Industrial ordi-

nance and not die Planned Urban Development (PUD)

ordinance as many people be-lieve.

According to Bryan, die

only reason why diat parcel

would have fallen under die

PUD ordinance is because Robert Grooters agreed to develop die land under the PUD. Bryan says if another developer wanted to build on

die land, diey could insist on doing it under the Light In-dustrial ordinance.

HEALTHY LIVING

Dr. Paul Tuthill L o w BACK PAIN AND W O R K E R ' S COMPENSATION

Low back injuries account for only 30 percent of a company's

total industrial accidents. Yet, "low backs" use 80% of a compa-

ny's workers compensation payouts. Why? A recent international

study finding: when industry uses medical rather than chiroprac-

tic management for low back cases, employer costs jump 200 to

1000 percent per case.

CANCER UP? CANCER DOWN? The overall cancer mortality rate for the years 1950 to 1989

would have gone down 14 percent, instead of going up 10 per-

cent, if lung cancer had been eliminated. The vast majority of

lung cancers are highly preventable.

WINTER BATHING FOR SENIOR CITIZENS If you get dry, itchy skin from daily bathing, try less frequent

bathing. Most older adults need only bathe once or mice a week.

Use lukewarm water and soap on the face, armpits, feet, buttocks

and groin. Rinsing the rest of the body with water is usually

enough.

EXERCISE AS STROKE PREVENTION Daily walking plus a once a week sport activity such as tennis or

swimming reduced the risk of stroke by 50 percent. Results were

from a 7,735 all-male sampling, aged 40 - 59, according to the

British Medical Journal.

INFLATE FOR HEALTH Keep your automobile tires fully inflated. Under inflation increas-

es chances of skidding - especially on wet or icy pavement. Under

inflation in summer causes tires to heat up excessively and

increases risk of blowouts. Myth: Under-inflated tires are safer in

hot weather.

CHOOSE DARK SALAD GREENS Dark salad greens such as Romaine lettuce have six times as

much vitamin C, eight limes as much beta carotene and twice as

much folacin, (a B vitamin especially important for women of

childbearing age) as do regular iceberg lettuce. Other choices:

spinach, watercress, arugula and chicory. Xujjj-UJCCCCCnSl

Problem solving skills are

becoming an integral compo-nent in today's ever-increas-

students ' problem-solving

abilities. Continuing from last year's

Vows SPOKEN

plan, problem solving steps

and strategies will be taught

during contact time for a six

to eight-week period. Identi-

fying die problem, collecting

relevant data, analyzing and

p r io r i t i z i ng i n f o r m a t i o n , brainstorming solutions, ;uid

deciding upon a final solution

are necessary steps for stu-

dents to learn. Using the strat-egies of "Guess and Check,"

"Make a Table," "Patterns",

ties. Posters have been made

to remind students of t h e s e strategies and are being dis -

tributed to all Lowell M i d d l e School classrooms.

Pre-testingandpost-testino the students will enable staff to assess the program's effec-

tiveness and show gains in

ice fishing and golf have a lot in common as far as I'm concerned. "How the heck is that?" you say. For some reason I have this unexplained desire to give each of these sports,

interests, pursuits or whatever you want to call them, a try

about once a year. After each golf or ice fishing outing, I have numerous choice names for the sport, interest, pursuit or whatever you want to call it.

It's pretty obvious I haven't been golfing lately. Now that I think about it, my golf game might be better on snow and ice than it is on grass. Of course I don't spend much time on the

grass when playing golf. My ball is more likely found in the woods, sand or water. At least the water hazards are frozen ewer and not a problem this time of year.

Now that we 've ruled out golf, it 's pretty obvious this column is going to be about ice fishing. Like the Mountain

Dew TV commercial says, "Yep, did it!" I went ice fishing last Saturday. I'm cured for another year or so.

Abuddy invited me tocomeup toh i sp laceon Hamlin Lake northof Ludington for some ice fishing. I had a meeting Friday night and didn't get out of town until after 8:00. By the time

100 YEARS AGO IN THE JOURNAL - FEB. 21. 1894 Governor Rich has fired three members of his cabinet

in a vote-altering scandal that raised salaries of state officials even though voted otherwise.

The skating on Flat River is excellent. The Grand Rapids preacher couldn't get across the

I drove over a hundred miles getting there, and another 40 or

50 trying to find his place, it was after 11:00 when I walked through the door. I know that seems like a long way to go for a little ice fishing, but if I'm only going once a year, I might as well do it up right. If I simply grabbed my gear and hit a local pond foracoupleof hours, I might be tempted to go more often. I wouldn't want to ruin my reputation.

We chewed the fat (now there's an old cliche' that paints a pretty picture) until 1:00 a.m. We got up fairly early, had

some coffee and got ready to go. All of a sudden I felt quite sick. I don't think it was from any apprehension or nervous-ness stemming from our expedition. I used to get like that before a football game, but I just don't get that worked up

about ice fishing. I put the blame on my stop at Taco Bell the previous night. Maybe I chewed too much fat. At any rate, 1 didn't feel well at all.

As we drove to the north end of the lake, I told my buddy

to be prepared to stop quickly if I gave him the word. I 'm sure he wouldn't have appreciated a chicken burritto all over the dashboard of his nice Explorer.

Once out on the lake, and in the fresh air, I began to feel a little better, but not much. Have you ever tried to drill a hole

through a couple feet of ice while feeling like you were going to blow chunks at any moment? Take my word for it, that's one of life's little pleasures you can live without.

The weather was quite warm. It was in the forties I'd say. In fact it had been unseasonably warm for a few days. The

snow was pretty much gone and there were a couple inches of

water on the glare ice. Walkingon it was difficult, and a wind gusting to about 30 miles per hour made it darned near

impossible. I kid you not, if I was on a patch of glare ice when a biggust came up, the wind would blow all 220 pounds of me

(about 320 in ice fishing gear) lock-kneed several feet across the ice until I came to a slushy spot. "This is going to be fun," I thought.

The wind blew shanties across the ice. It blew our tip-ups over and tripped their flags. The little spring bobber, or whatever you call it, was bouncing on the end of my rod like a school of piranha was after my wax worm. Unfortunately, it was only the wind. At one point I hollered over at my buddy and asked if he had whitecaps in his hole too.

We did catch fish. My buddy caught the first one. He held it up declaring it was the smallest perch he'd ever seen. I agreed. They give away bigger fish at school carnivals. We

used them for bait on our tip-ups with no result. Apparently no self-respecting pike would be caught eating something that small.

After three or four hours, we decided to give the fish a break

and packed it in. My buddy had dug a set of steel spikes out of his gear that clamped on his boots and made walking on ice

easier. I asked if he'd pull me back to the car on his little sled. He refused, and I was forced to shuffle along on my own, often sliding backward faster than I could move forward.

We went into town for lunch. After eating a bowl of

homemade chicken soup and a grilled cheese sandwich, I felt much better. We went back to his place. Lacking fish stories

to recount, he napped and I watched a good old black and white Kirk Douglas movie.

That night we had a fish fry - only because I'd brought along a package of frozen filets from a recent trip to Florida.

I like fishing down there a lot better. At least two good reasons come to mind. One, I don't have to drill a hole in the ice. Two, I actually catch fish. Bonus!

For the past several weeks, I have been telling people everywhere I go how important a "yes" vote on March 15 is to

Michigan's future. Proposal A offers Michigan a fair balance

of taxes, full and equitable funding of public schools and increased job growth. On the other hand, if Proposal A is

defeated, the back-up plan would devastate Michigan 's

economy by levying double the property tax rate for school operations on homeowners, increasing the state's income tax

to six percent and hiking the Single Business Tax to 2.75

percent. While most people I talk to favor the ballot plan, everyone

has been concerned about two things: the real estate transfer

tax and the f i l ing deadline for the homestead affidavit .

Homeowners arc especially confused about the threat of

higher property taxes if the affidavit is not filed before March

1. Fortunately, the Michigan Legislature is doing something

about those two issues. This week, we passed and the governor

signed into law a bill that cuts the real estate transfer tax under

both the ballot and the back-up plans. Also, the governor

issued a directive Friday that extendsthe tilingdeadlinc tor the

affidavit to May 1 if the ballot proposal passes. To cover both bases, the Legislature is acting to extend the deadline for the back-up plan, as well.

Under Senate Bill 999, signed into law Friday, the transfer tax would be cut to .75 percent from two percent in the ballot

plan and one percent in the back-up plan. It also exempts the

transfer of property from parents to children and grandparents to grandchildren from the tax. Why did we decide to reduce

the tax? Because Michigan's economy continues to improve - in part due to our recent tax cuts - state revenues have

increased. In the past, state government would have spent this, but with the new attitude in Lansing, we believe taxpayers

should reap the benefits, not government bureaucracies. This reduction in the transfer tax will make it even more

affordable for Michigan citizens to buy and sell homes, which

is crucial to our state's economic climate. Holding our taxes down will make Michigan more attractive to job providers

who want to settle or expand. To keep our state competitive in the world economy, we must create a tax climate that is palatable to everyone.

Besides lowering the transfer tax, the filing deadline for the affidavit has been extended. Governor Engler's directive requires the state treasurer to accept homestead exemption claims until May 1, if the ballot plan passes. The extension does not apply to the back-up plan because the governor does

not have the power to change statutory language - only the Legislature can do that.

I am confident the Legislature will do all it can to get legislation passed extending the deadline under both plans.

On Tuesday, the Senate will start debating one proposal that

would extend the deadline to May 1 and allow the affidavit to

be signed by "an" owner, rather that "the" owner. The Michi-

gan House also has a couple of bills before it that would make

getting deserved property tax relief a little easier.

If you are a farm owner, make sure you identify land that

is farmland on your affidavit (whether it is contiguous to your

home or not). If there is not a spot on the form to indicate that,

write a note on the form itself It is likely the Legislature will

pass legislation in the next two weeks to clarify that farmland

is part of your homestead, hut this would happen only if

Proposal A passes.

Homeowners who do not file an exemption form with local assessors' offices by the deadline will be taxed as a business

or second home, and not receive the larger tax cut they should.

The reason for this is that the state has no way of distinguish-ing homes from businesses. If you have not vet received an affidavit, call 1-800 FORM-2-ME.

We are doing all we can to give you the deepest tax cuts we

can while making the process of filing for these cuts as stress-

free as possible. With a cut in the transfer tax. Proposal A makes even more sense, and with an extension of the filing deadline, Michigan homeowners will be assured the property

tax cut they deserve.

The limit for

bonding the water revenue bonds is set at $1,500,000.

IT WAS MOVED BY HODGES and seconded by TH-OMPSON to approve the above named contractors for the westside water improvement projects subject to the issuance of bonds in March and the confirmation of the special assessment roll in February. YEA: Councilmembers Green, Hodges, Shores, Th-ompson and Mayor Maatman. NAY: 0. ABSENT: 0. MOTION CARRIED.

Item #2. ADOPT RESOLUTION SETTING PUBLIC HEARING ON SPECIAL ASSESSMENT ROLL FOR WESTSIDE WATER IMPROVEMENTS (2/22). A reso-lution to establish a public hearing on February 22 for consideration of the special assessment roll involving westside water improvements was presented. Based on the bids received, the assessments will be lowered from $23 per lineal foot of frontage (or $11.50 if the water main serves both sides of the street) plus $450 per lot to $20.12 per lineal foot of frontage (or $10.06 if the water main serves both sides of the street) plus $350 per lot.

The project involved constructing a water main from the Water Treatment Plant on Bowes to just west of Valley Vista Trailer Park, then north to West Main. Water and sewer mains were bored and jacked under M-21. The change order to be considered reflected an overall deduct of $2,192. This contained a few water main items necessary to avoid conflicts with other utilities in the northwest quadrant of M-21 and Ridgeview Drive. The reduction was primarily caused by raising the elevation of the sanitary sewer.

IT WAS MOVED BY THOMPSON and seconded by GREEN to approve the deduct change order of $2,192 involving the first phase of the westside water improve-ments project. YEA: 5. NAY: 0. ABSENT: 0. MOTION CARRIED.

A pole sign (48 s.f.) and reader board (18 s.f.) will be located on the east side of the property, away from the clear zone area. The two Tuffy wall signs (57.2 s.f. total) place the signage over the allowable amount.

Item #6. COMMENTS FROM GORDON HILL. Gordon Hill, owner of Hill Shoe Store located at 218 W. Main, was present to request that the public be allowed during the board of review sessions. Additionally, Hill addressed the issue of the declining downtown caused by high property assessments and parking difficulties. He noted the number of businesses which previously existed in the downtown. Shores stated that the downtown has changed over the years. Businesses which existed there previously will not come back. City Manager Pasquale responded that the City, through DDA funds, will be spending between a half to one million dollars on the downtown area. This includes new sidewalks, lighting and revamping of parking. Addition-ally, nine members on the DDA are property owners in the downtown area and care greatly about the down-town. Further, the Lowell Area Chamber of Commerce has been making great strides to insure that the down-town is vital. Mike Blough, Chairman of the Lowell Planning Commis-sion, added that the process will not happen overnight to reverse downtown deterioration trends. During Focus Group discussions, it was found that the downtown district is of major interest to everyone. Also, he noted that a survey was sent to approximately 600 residents and there were a number of questions that address the downtown district.

Item #7. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT - ALLOCATION OF FUNDS - PUBLIC HEAR-ING. The Council was informed at the last meeting tha the City will receive an estimated $41,000 in Block Grant Funds for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1994. Also $3,403.24 in unprogrammed funds from this fiscal yeaf still remain. In reviewing possible projects, the following were recommended and advertised for c o m m e n t : Master Plan - $3,403.24 (unprogrammed 1993-94 funds)

Schedule for new water line has projected July finish By Marc Popiolek Contributing Writer

Lowell Township's Board received a schedule for the bidding and construction for

the water main project for the new high school.

The schedule, submitted by the engineering firm Moore

and Bruggink, has Uie project out for bids by March 15, the

project awarded on April 4, construction started April 18

and the project completed by July 15.

T o w n s h i p S u p e r v i s o r John Timpson believes the schedule is great for the

township because it not only

has the project completed in time for the new high school

to open, but he also feels the township and school can save

some money.

"I feel if the project is put

up for bids early, then we

should get a better bid and save s o m e money , " sa id Timpson.

Lowell Township has been given $500,000 by Uie

Lowell School Board to pay

for the project's cost. The cost in the bids will

include installing a 16 -inch

water main along Foreman

St. from die new water tower

east to Alden Nash <ind another 16 -inch water main along

Sidewalk Handicap Ramps -$22,765.00 1994-95 funds

Mayor Maatman opened the public hearing. In response to an inquiry from the Showboat Corporation for funding. City Manager Pasquale said that Block Grant funds could be utilized for the Amphitheater if these were allocated to barrier-free projects. Thad Kraus, repre-senting Showboat, felt this would be agreeable having requested $5,000 in funds. Councilmember Green questioned if block grant funds are dedicated to the Showboat, could the cost for side-walk handicap ramps be paid from the General Fund. City Manager Pasquale responded that the City would have to review this as part of the budget process in order to consider setting aside the monies for the ramps. Councilmember Hodges questioned other possible sources for supporting the Showboat. He supported the Block Grant proposal as presented and advertised. Councilmember Thompson said the Showboat should be a self supporting function. Hefelt that the Community Block Grant funds should go toward projects that can be utilized year round. Councilmember Shores questioned who are the owners of Showboat. Maatman responded that the Showboat is a non-profit organization. Mayor Maatman said a handicap ramp on Main Street can be used by everyone. However, a ramp at the Showboat amphitheater will only be used 3 - 4 times a year. Councilmember Shores felt that the City of Lowell needs to be promoted. She wanted to see Lowell become "Showboat City" again. Councilmember Green favored a cooperative effort with the School and the City toward contributing to the Showboat.

IT WAS MOVED BY HODGES and seconded by GREEN to approve the recommendations (Master Plan for $18,235 and Sidewalk Handicap Ramps for $22,765) in the allocation of Community Development Block Grant Funds ($41,000.00) through Kent Cdunty for the fiscal year beginning July 1,1994 and authorize City Manager Pasquale to submit an application for these proposals. Further, the $3,403 in unprogrammed CDBG funds from the present fiscal year be allocated to the Master Plan. YEA: 5. NAY: 0. ABSENT: 0. MOTION CARRIED.

Item #8. CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS CONTRACT. Joseph Meredith of Meredith Display Service provided a contract for Christmas decorations encompassing the 1994-95 season. The decorations would be placed on 30 poles for a cost of $1860 per year, $60 more than in previous contacts. Councilmember Hodges suggested that the City Coun-cil and Chamber of Commerce be allowed to select the decorations. He noted that there is a need for different styles of decorationsthanthosedisplayed this past year. Pasquale said he would notify Meredith.

IT WAS MOVED BY GREEN and seconded by SHORES to renew the contract with Meredith Display encompass-ing the 1994-95 season to be placed on 30 poles in the downtown for a cost of $1860 per year. YEA: 5. NAY: 0. ABSENT: 0. MOTION CARRIED.

Item #9. CONSULTANT SELECTION FOR THE BOWES - M-21 - ALDEN NASH INTERSECTION EN-GINEERING STUDY. The City, Lowell and Vergennes Townships have previously agreed to contribute up to

$3000 each toward an engineering study providing a solution to realign the Bowes-M-21-Alden Nash inter-section. This realignment is necessary to qualify for a traffic signal at that intersection. Four firms provided proposals:

WW Engineering and Science $6520

Fleis and VendenBrink Engineering $8315

Fishbeck, Thompson, Carr and Huber $8900

V-Tec Engineering $5700

Representatives from the three planning commissions met on January 26 to review the proposals. Councilmember Thompson questioned why the City did not accept the low bid. City Manager Pasquale re-sponded that the conclusion of the representatives was that a larger firm would be more desirable in order to undertake a project of this size.

IT WAS MOVED BY GREEN and seconded by THOMP-SON to accept the proposal from WW Engineering and Science in the amount of $6520 toward an engineering study providing a solution to realign the Bowes-M-21 -Alden Nash intersection with the City paying one third of the cost. YEA: 5. NAY: 0. ABSENT: 0. MOTION CARRIED.

Item #10. DISCUSSION OF FROZEN WATER LINES ISSUE. City Manager Pasquale said over the last two weeks, a numberof water service lines have frozen. The following information was provided regarding the issue:

A. Number of service calls involving frozen water lines: 44

1. determined to be City's responsibility: 9 2. determined to be owner's responsibility: 35 (this category includes locations where internal lines froze in basements or crawl spaces (25) or residents on the "freeze list" who were notified to run their water, did not do so (10).

B. Cost to City 1. Employee salaries, benefits and sen/ice truck (85 regular hours, 47.5 overtime hours) $3018 2. Outside contractors (welders) to thaw frozen lines

$5071 TOTAL COST: $8089

C. Average cost per service call: $184

D. Money due through standard meter replacement fees:

17 repaired at $10 =$170 1 new at $50 =$50

Pasquale said that Director of Public Works Art Gall and Water Distribution Supervisor Robert Robinson have spent numerous hours to thaw these lines. There are only nine residences that were determined to be City responsibility. Mayor Maatman said the first step is to determine where the City responsibility ends and the homeowners start. Gall responded from the curb stop box to the house is the responsibility of the resident, while from the water main to the curb stop rests with the City responsibility. He suggested coming up with a policy for frozen water lines. Councilmember Hodges said those residents that were notified to run their water and didn't should be charged to repair their service. Councilmember Thompson said it is the City's problem in the first place. If the City failed to repair the services, then it is the City's problem. The residents are paying for

service that the City is providing. After the City provides the repairs to its system, Thompson added it will be the residents' responsibility for repairs from their homes to the main in the future. It was the consensus of the Council to repair the prob-lems with the City mains this spring and to set a policy for frozen lines in the future. Thecostto repairthe City's lines was estimated at a minimum of $48,000.

Item #11. CITIZENS COMMENTS. Thad Kraus, as mem-ber of the Lowell Showboat Board, expressed his disappointment toward the Council regarding comments made concerning the Showboat. Mayor Maatman responded the City Council has been extremely supportive of the Council. He added that the Council has a tremendous amount of pride in the Show-boat and the community. Pasquale said a number of Councilmembers have de-voted time toward the Showboat. Further, he said the Council was concerned about the appropriateness of allocating the federal funding for the Showboat. Councilmember Thompson said he hoped that Kyle T riplett and Nathan Livingston are aware of their freedom of speech, the right to express their own view and that their parents' tax dollars are well spent. Councilmember Green expressed thanks to Lowell and Vergennes Townships and the City for the ad on the front page of the Buyer's Guide in regard to the new property tax homestead affidavit.

Item #12. CITY MANAGER'S REPORT. City Manager Pasquale reported on the following:

A. In discussing Mayor Exchange with the City of Hudsonville, Tuesday. May 17 and 24 were mentioned as preferred. The Council concurred with these dates. B. A recent history of building permits issued was presented. C. The annual account of the Schneider Fund was presented for Council review. D. The minutes of the November 22, 1993 Planning Commission meeting were presented. E. Lowell Township is initiating the construction of a sanitary sewer main from the new high school site to Foreman Road. Since a portion of the main will be within the City Limits, amendments to the sewer agree-ment will need to be undertaken. F. As of February 3, 377 recycling totes have been distributed. Pasquale mentioned that Councilmember Hodges has had a major role in the distribution of the totes. The program has started well and the public has been very cooperative. G. In order to provide better communication, Pasquale is now an ex-officio member of the Lowell Area Cham-ber of Commerce board. A representative of the school board will also be appointed as an ex-officio member. H. The next City Council meeting will be on Tuesday, February 22 because of the City observing President's day on Monday, February 21. I. The Council expressed welcome to Kyle Triplett and Nathan Livingston, student representatives to the Coun-cil. J. 600 random community attitude survey forms have been mailed which will be utilized in the Master Plan. K. In response to Councilmember Shores' inquiry regarding Lee's Landing, City Manager Pasquale said he and Building Inspector Andy Sparks have talked with a prospective buyer. Pasquale said that the possible buyer is aware of the problems and costs to repairthe building.

on Feb. 15, causing damage to both vehicles but no injuries.

Andrea Richmond and Jessica Blough, both 17, from

erty damage accident Feb. 18 when a vehicle, driven by

Schneider's vehicle on Main near West Street.

Library, continued.... of no less than .55 and no greater than .75 be determined by each district.

The ballot proposal for the millage will be placed on the general election on Nov.

8. According to the library

board ,the millage will only provide the same amount of

funding for libraries as it is currently receiving.

In a meeting last year

Lowell Township board

member, Ruth McCrank, in-

terim director of the Kent

County Library system, said a district system would make funding more stable and eq-uitable to all townships.

Curren t ly , the l ibrary sy st e m re I i es on cou nty fu nds

and payments from individual townships . However, that method turned out to cause

problems when townships

saw their payments double

over a two-year period. Eight

townships threatened to drop out of the system this past year unless an agreement could be reached on the cost

townships had to pay. The library system came

up with an acceptable plan to

keep all of the townships in the system for one more year

and with a promise to find a

more reliable source of fund-

ing for the future.

In today's payment for-

mula, it is projected that

Lowell Township's payment wou ld equa l .37 m i l l s ,

Vergennes payment would

equal .19 mills and the city of Lowell's payment would be .16 mills.

The proposed millage of .55 to .75 for a district system, in some cases, would double

or triple the cost for town-

ships, but Township Super-

visor John Timpson feels the

district system is more reli-

able to smaller townships.

"The d i s t r i c t s y s t e m

would give the people an op-

portunity to vote. Ifthey don't like the idea, they will keep

thesamesystem, but wecould

end up losing our library," said Timpson.

Carol Wieland, Lowell

Township trustee, feels a dis-

t r ic t s y s t e m would help

smaller libraries expand or

improvetheirlibraries."With

the money most of the small

libraries get, they can only

afford to operate in a limited

way. A millage would help

improve their situation," she said.

The board took no formal

action on the matter, but will

do so when more information

is made available by the li-

brary board.

'Kids know more today and

have many more opportuni-

ties," Anderson said. "I think it makes them easier to teach."

Hie opportunities Ander-son speaks of Jire the YMCA

and summer and day camps.

Anderson said teaching

physical education at the el-

ementary level is fun. "Kids

loving what you teach makes

it fun," she said.

An added b o n u s for

Anderson is this year h e r

youngest son Kory, age 6 i s

in her class. "The first part 0f Uie ye;ir I also taught my old-est child Joshua."

When out of the classroom Anderson serves as a YMCA

volunteer coach and with the

Invest in Youth Campaign

She also helps to run a day

camp and a clubhouse for kids. Her y e a r s of teaching

physical education at Uie el-

ementary level have helped to

surface writing aspirations.

"I've given Uiought to writing a children's book (using a

tennis shoe character) to teach

lead-upskills," Anderson said.

Township donates $10,000 for new rescue vehicle

The mother of two says there is more of a flow from lower elementary grades to

upper elementiiry grades. "Outcome-based education

zeros in on what we want

children to learn. It then mea-

sures to see if die objectives

are being learned by children,"

Anderson says. "What I teach

Uie lower elementary students prepares Uiem for what comes next at Uie upper elementary level."

The Lowel l Township

Board has agreed to donate

$10,000 to Bowne Township

in order to help pay for Bowne

Township's new rescue ve-hicle.

The vehicle, which cost Bowne Townsh ip $57,000,

will help serve Uie souUiem

third of Lowell Townsh ip

according to Township Su-pervisor John Timpson.

According to Timpson,

Lowell Township is the only

township in Uie area donating

money for Uie use of the new rescue vehicle.

Timpson says Uie $ 10,000

donation is good because die service given to Lowell by

Bowne's Fire Department is excellent.

"They do a great service to Uiis township and we feel

Uie donation is equitable for

how much Uie township uses

Uie vehicle," said Timpson.

The first airplane flight across the English channel was made by Louis Bleriot of France in 1909.

SECONDHAND S M O K E

Hie harmful effects of smoking tobacco are well known. Secondhand smoke - a mixture of Uie smoke exhaled by smokers and the smoke that comes from die burning end of a cigarette, cigar, or pipe, can also be a liealtli care concern.

Much of die research done to date has focused on the effects of second hand smoke on young children, butevidence

is mounting diat this environmental tobacco smoke is prob-ably harmful to anyone who inhales it.

Hie pediatric effects of secondhand smoke are well docu-

mented: Uiere is a definite increased risk of ear infection, asthma, and respiratory infections in those children routinely exposed to secondhand smoke. But recent evidence suggests that people of all age groups are at increased risk of lung cancer and loss of lung function if regularly exposed to

The Lowell Ledger-Wednesday, February 23, 1994-Page 19

environmental smoke. The Environmental Protective Agency

has estimated diat as many as 3,000 lung cancer deaths each

year are die result of exposure to secondhand smoke. While die very young, die elderly, and people with known lung

disease are at die greatest risk, die threat also extends to women in die peri- and post menopausal years. Among non-

smoking women, the risk of lung cancer is approximately 30

percent higher for wives of smokers than for wives of non-

smokers. This statistic alone is very alarming.

If you smoke, it is obvious you should make every effort to quit, as difficult as that may sound. But if you cannot or will not break die habit, try to refrain from smoking around your children, spouse, elderly companions, etc. Evidence clearly exists diat your smoke is harmful not just to you, hut to all diose widiin inhaling distance of you.

For the better part of the

hree-game match , N o r t h v i e w

teemed able to dig every hit

[Lowell sent over the net. Ironically, in the end,

howell's match point came on a serve that hit at the feet of

|a Wildcat player. Ilie Red Arrows improved

their O-K White Conference

record to 3-3 with a 5 -15 ,15-10,16-14winoverNorthview.

"When games are on the

line , Uie team that is able to

put die ball on the floor wins,"

said a disgrunUed Northview

coach Tom Judson. "We've been in 15 games like this, but

when Uie game's on Uie line we're unable to make Uie plays. In volleyball a team doesn't lose a match. It wins a match. Lowell was able to win it, we

weren't." Lowell started game Uiree

witha 9-3 run. Judson, through

substitutions and t imeouts, looked as if he might be able

to will a comeback victory

into die 'Cats. Northview cut Uie lead to

four at 12-8 and had Uie serve. Amy Rappley's serving and some timely hits sent the Wildcats on a 6-0 run and put

Northview in Uie driver's seat

at 14-12. Serving for the game,

Rappley hit Uie net, giving Uie

serve back to Lowell. A strong serve by Amett

got Lowell to widiin one at 14-13.

Cori Boersma's dink shot from die far right comer Uien tied Uie score at 14-14.

Following Arnett's Uiird serve, a Gowen hit gave Lowell Uie lead back at 15-14.

Arnett finished out the match wiUi an ace.

"This was such a big win for us," Lowell coach Laurie

Kuna said. "Northview just conies after you and comes

after you. Its digging was in-

credible. Northview covers every Uiing."

Risner shared the success of

Ute barrell roll, a wrestling

move developed in Canada,

wi th t e a m m a t e C o r y Kirkbride.

Kirkbride, a Lowell senior captain, had seen Risner 's opponent and knew Uie move

would be available. He shared his findings with Risner and

Uie Red Arrow used Uie infor-mation to post a 15-7 decision

over C a l e d o n i a ' s B r i an Hannah.

Caledonia advanced to Uie

finals of Uie district wiUi a surprising and most impres-sive win ove r Lakewood (rated fifUi in Class B), 42-23. Lowell made its way to Uie

district f inals with a 66-3 drubbing of Ionia.

Al 103 pounds, Uie Fight-ing Scots' Adam Stauffer has been a t eam m o n i e n t u m

builder. For a period mid a

become Scott Swanson's worst

tum Uie Scots were hoping to gain.

Caledonia did fight back to lie Uie score at 6-6 wiUi

Jamie Trudeau defeated Dan Spicer (112), 11-9 and

Mike Draft narrowly edged past Mall Osmolinski (119), 8-6.

Hie Red Arrows answered wiUi four consecutive wins. Mike Rottier (125) won by lorfeit. Doug Weeks pinned

The Red Arrows closed oul the match wiUi wins in four of the six weight classes.

Soaper was Uie 96Ui win of his career.

Rich Slouffer fo l lowed Risner's decision wiUi a pin at

" 1 Uiought our kids wrestled real well for not being famil-iar wiUi Caledonia," Lowell coach Gary Rivers said." The

coach against him. lliere is no shame in losing to Lowell," he said.

Class B Indivd'I Districts

If your team qualifies eight wrestlers for Uie Class B in-

dividual regional but Uiere is no one there to record it, did it

really qualify nine wrestlers? Of course it did, but Uie

venerable Lowell wrestling

coach Gary Rivers levied his

complaint anyway over his

disappointment about Uie lack

of coverage.

"Our boys wrestled ex-

cepuonally well. They had to

in order to q u a l i f y eight

wresUers," Rivers said.

It would have been nine excepi Uiat Red Arrow heavy-weight Chris Nauta was dis-qualified for words spoken to an official.

"Lun not defending Nauta. I'm sure he probably did say

soniething, bui we've had trouble wiUi a certain offi-cial," Rivers said.

Whi l e the d i s t u r b a n c e

served as a kick in Uie pants to

the rest of the squad, it man-

aged to fight back and repre-sent itself extremely well.

Nauta's actions also got him dismissed from Uie team regional on Wednesday (at Ionia) and Uie individual re-

gional on Saturday at Godwin. Leading the pack of eight

Lowell wrestlers will be 103

pounder, Scott Swanson. Ilie

junior placed second wiUi a 2 -

lost in the f i n a l s to Middleville's Kelly Webster, 7-0.

Mike Rottier, 125 pounds,

finished at 2-2 and placed fourUi. "Mike wrestled ex-ceplionally well, like 1 Uiought

lie was capable of all season," Rivers said.

Doug Weeks, 130 pounds, was also 2-2 and qualified for Uie regional at Godwin.

Chris Kamphuis was sec-ond al 135 pounds wiUi a mark

of 3-1. He was beaten by Hasting's Scon Cook , 9-5.

Todd Lyonna i s (145)may

have been Uie surprise of Uie

day, finishing Uiird al 3-1.

"Todd came to the district to do someUiing," Rivers said.

Lowell's Cory Kirkbride was Uiird in the 152-pound weight class.

Lightweights Swanson and Spicer serve as the "heavies" for Lowell's wrestling team By Thad Kraus

Lowell Ledger Editor

In an effort lo avoid beat-

ing one another up, Lhey don'i

work with one another al practice.

OUier aspiring wrestlers at those weights (103 and 112) would prefer to draw straws

to determine who must work wiUi Uiem and/or gel worked over by Uiem.

The reputat ion of hard

work and always giving ev-

e r y t h i n g they 've g o t has

moved Scott Swanson and

Dan Spicer to Uie lop of Uieir

respective classes in the O-K White.

The sophomore, junior 1-2 punch at the lop of Lowell's wresUing lineup had a com-

bined 5 8-4 record Uirough Uie conference meel. Swanson was 29-0 and Spicer was 29-4.

Because of Uie tandem's

precision, Lowell started ev-

ery league dual meet wiUi two victories.

"It's a nice feeling starting a match wiUi two victories,"

Lowell coach Gary Rivers

said. "The 103/112 pound wresUers are as good as we've had in 4-5 years."

Both have set goals of

reaching Uie individual stale

mee t in B a t t l e C r e e k .

Swanson qualified for Uie stale meet in 1993.

LEGAL EASE

With Jonathan J. David

DEAR JONATHAN: 1 just got married for the second

time. Just after our marriage, my wife and I sold homes that we

each owned in our individual names and purchased a new

home in both of our names. What I am confused about is that

when 1 sold my house, my wife was required to sign off on the

deed. But when my wife sold her house I was not required to

sign off on her deed. How come?

JONATHAN SAYS: Under Michigan law, a wife has a

dower interest in her husband's land. This means that she is

entitled to a lifetime use of a third of all land that her husband

owned (with some exceptions) during the marriage. As a

result, anv time a male seller conveys real estate while he is

married, his wi fe must execute the deed waiving her dower

interest in that property.

On the other hand, a man does not have any dower interest

in his wife's real property. As a result, she can convey real

estate that she o w n s while she is married and her husband will

not be required to execute the deed.

DEARJONA THAN: A few years ago, on the advice of my

lawyer. I set up a revocable living trust and transferred all of

my assets to the trust. One of the main reasons I did this was

so that my estate would avoid probate and my assets would go

directly to my children upon my death. I am financially well

off and I would like to start making annual gif ts to my children

and grandchildren f rom my trust. Before I start making the

gifts, are there any special rules that I should follow?

JON A THAN SA YS: It depends upon the language in your

trust. If distributions f rom your trust can be made only to you

and not to any other person, then there would be no problem

in making gifts directly f rom the trust to your children and

grandchildren.

On the other hand, if your trust states that distributions can

be made to you or to others, then making g i f t s directly from the

trust could he risky. In the event you were to make gifts f rom

your trust to your children and grandchildren and then die

within three years of making those gifts , those gif ts would be

brought back into your estate and included in your estate for

federal estate tax purposes .

Since I have not seen any specif ic language from your trust,

I think it would make sense to adopt a conservative approach

when making gif ts f rom your trust. My recommendat ion is

that you first make a gift f rom your trust to yourself and then

from yourself to your children and grandchildren. By adopting

this gif t ing approach, even if you die within three years of

making those gif ts , you will avoid having those gif ts brought

back into your estate for federal estate tax purposes.

DEAR JONATHAN: My parent 's home is only in my

fa ther ' s name. Will this create a problem for my mother upon

my fa ther ' s death? My parents have been married for 40

years, hut their home was in my fa ther ' s name prior to their

getting married and he never put my mothe r ' s name on the

deed. If this does create a problem for my mother, should a

deed be prepared by an attorney putting my mothe r ' s name

on the title?

JONATHAN SAYS: This may not be a problem for your

mother depending upon the circumstances. Let ' s first as-

sume that your father has prepared a will naming your

mother as his sole beneficiary. In this event, upon your

fa ther ' s death, and after his estate has been probated, all of

his probatable assets (assets titled in his name alone), includ-

ing the house, would pass to your mother.

Even if your father does not leave a will, your mother

would be entitled to receive at least one-half of his estate.

Again, upon the completion of probate, these assets would

pass to your mother.

On the other hand, your mother ' s interest in the property

could be impacted if your father was to leave a will intention-

ally excluding your mother as a beneficiary. Although she, as

his surviving spouse, would have certain legal rights in his

estate, including the right to live in the house for up to one

year, she would not necessarily end up own ing the house. I

am assuming this is not the case in your paren t ' s situation.

In the event your father would like to have the house

automatically go to your mother at his death without first

having to go through probate, he could put your mothe r ' s

name on the title by preparing a quit-claim deed. In the

alternative, he could set up a living trust and transfer the title

to the house to that trust. Either way probate would be

avoided.

I rccommend that your parents consult with an estate

planning attorney for the purpose of reviewing this matter,

a long with any other estate planning quest ions or concerns

they might have. After deciding how they wish to proceed,

the attorney can then draft the appropriate documents on

their behalf .

It is with great regret that I must announce that Plumb's Valu'Rite Foods

will he closing our store in the Lowell community.

Our decision to close this store has not been an easy one, but it is one we

must make based on economic reasons. We purchased the Lowell store as

part of a package of eight Eberhard stores in West Michigan. A recent

market survey conducted in the Lowell area has shown that the community

does not have a large enough customer base to support two grocery stores.

We are sorry to be closing, but the decision was a little easier to make

knowing that Family Fare, a fellow Spartan Store member with a much

larger state-of-the-art store, will remain in the area to serve you. We contin-

ue to maintain a good relationship with them, and 1 am sure with their

commitment to service, quality and value, the people of Lowell will be in

good hands.

We truly appreciate the efforts of our loyal employees in the Lowell store.

Every effort is being made to find other employment positions in the Plumb's

organization for those interested in staying with us. In addition. Family Fare

is interviewing those who choose to apply to work in their organization.

We will miss the friends we have made, but 1 know that Family Fare will

continue to provide the Lowell community with an excellent level of service

and commitment.
