CityThe Citizen’s Police Academy is a 12-week program sponsored by the Westerville Division of Police. And is one of the department’s most popular community programs, designed to give residents insight on the day-to-day operations of the Police Department while building relationships with residents.

Attendees are also provided the opportunity to do their own building search and ride along with an officer.

CITIZEN’S POLICE ACADEMY

National Night Out is an annual community-building program that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make neighborhoods a safer, better place to live. It enhances the relationship between neighbors and law enforcement while bringing back a true sense of community and provides a great opportunity to bring police and neighbors together under positive circumstances. (natw.org)

During the 2015 National Night Out, the Westerville Division of Police will visit a number of the City’s 42 Block Watch groups to meet with residents and discuss a variety of crime prevention strategies and programs.

The City of Westerville actively manages greenways as a link to park system components that form a continuous park environment, emphasize harmony with the natural environment and allow uninterrupted and safe pedestrian and other non-motorized movement between parks. These spaces also provide citizens a natural resource base and enhance property values.

The preservation of Westerville’s greenways benefits the community in a number of ways, including:

• Protection of natural environmental systems: water quality, air quality and wildlife habitat.

• Protection of developed facilities from flood damage by preserving open space for naturally occurring floodplain.

• Providing for a healthy active lifestyle through pedestrian and bicycle transportation activities supported by greenways.

• Encouraging economic development through the provision of greenspace, which has been shown to increase property values in surrounding area.

• Providing nature related educational opportunities.

• Provide watercourse access for activities such as canoeing, kayaking and fishing.

Through efforts of many volunteers, the City of Westerville the Spring Valley Greenway, located south of County Line Rd W across Maebelle Way, has been transformed from a lazy, overgrown stream to a beautiful and clear stop on the Westerville Bike & Walk (B&W) recreational.

This five-plus acre parcel was deeded to the Parks and Recreation Department by the Spring Valley Village Association. Improvements included refurbishing the existing pavement, bridges and stream bank, adding a continuous addition to the pathway system, and enhancing neighboring yards.

As fall approaches, we look forward to seeing the trees bursting with color as the leaves change to reds, yellows, oranges and even some purples. We all know that the leaves change, but do you know why they change, what weather factors impact color change and which trees boast which colors?

In spring and summer, trees leaves are green as they contain chlorophyll. This chemical absorbs sunlight, which is used to create nourishing carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water. As the tree prepares for winter, the leaves do not need to produce food for the tree, so the chlorophyll begins to break down. This causes its green color to gradually disappear. Changes in the length of daylight and cooler temperatures also trigger this change. In many trees, the removal of the green allows yellow and orange colors to emerge. In other types of trees, a separate chemical process begins, create shades of red and purple.

Other weather factors may enhance or prevent the vividness of color. Low but above freezing temperatures will aid in producing bright reds in maples. On the other hand, early frosts will create less brilliant red colors. Fall colors will increase in intensity with more rainy and/or overcast days.

On Wednesday, June 24, Westerville officials and guests formally dedicated the new Worthington Road Extension connecting County Line Road and Polaris Parkway.

Open to traffic last March, the Worthington Road Extension features the City’s first roundabout, and includes new street lighting, underground electric, pedestrian sidewalks and a multi-use recreational trail.

With the roadway extension in place, development is taking shape. Construction is progressing for The Ravines at Westar, which provides new, upscale living options for residents and families who prefer to rent. Coming soon: new dining and retail for all to enjoy.

Watch the City website for news and updates: www.westerville.org.

Tree Talk articles are presented by the Westerville Shade Tree Commission.

Leaf color is tied to the type of tree you have planted. For example, if you want trees with red leaves, think about planting maples, oaks (red, pin, scarlet and black), sweetgums, blackgum or dogwood. Trees producing yellow or orange color leaves include hickory, yellow-poplar, some oaks (white, chestnut) beech, birch, ginkgo, yellowwood and sycamore. Fall is a perfect time to plant trees as well. Just remember to keep them watered and to put mulch around to protect the roots during the winter.

CHANGE COLORWHY TREES

The Shade Tree Commission meets the second Wednesday of each month, meetings are open to residents and the public. Information on the Commission can be found online at www.westerville.org/boardsandcommissions. Residents can also contact the Parks and Urban Forest Manager at (614) 901-6598 or [email protected] for information on trees.

In 2015, the Public Service Department will collect leaves throughout the City on three different occasions from October 12 to December 18. Each residence will receive at least one scheduled pick-up during each assigned week.

To make the collection more efficient, the Public Service Department recommends:

• Rake all leaves to the tree lawn (in between the sidewalk and the street), but not in the street, by Sunday evening preceding your scheduled week.

• Leaf piles should be free of large sticks, twigs and any trash or debris that could cause damage to the leaf collection equipment and injuries to personnel.

• Vehicles should not be parked in front of leaves during collection weeks.

Should you not want to wait until the appointed week to discard leaves, place them in a paper, biodegradable bag or yard waste container with other yard waste for the normal Monday yard waste collection.

With the assistance of City residents, we will be able to provide an effective and high-quality leaf collection program. Please contact the Public Service Department at (614) 901-6740 with questions or comments relative to this service.

* Zones 1 & 2 will be picked up during Week 1; Zones 3 & 4 during Week 2.

Your guide to City services is now just a download away on your phone. A new and improved City of Westerville mobile application, or “app,” is now available for Android devices and the iPhone through Google Play and the Apple App Store, respectively. Titled “My Westerville,” the app was developed by PublicStuff, a leading municipal application resource company.

Powered by the PublicStuff platform, the app also uses the City’s mobile website, which has been improved for visibility on tablets, smartphones and other devices. The platforms work together to keep information, alerts and news from the City up-to-date, consistent and user friendly.

One of the primary features of the app is an enhanced service request function. Users can launch the app anytime they are out and about to report an issue, make a request or alert City staff to a problem. To help describe the situation, users can take a photo as part of the submission. The request is electronically dispatched to the appropriate department and users can follow its progress to a speedy resolution.

Users of the app can also quickly find information on City news, community events, staff contacts and building locations, as well as construction updates and sites of parks and trails. Shortcuts to subscribe to the weekly e-newsletter, permits and forms and City social media networks are also included. Local information, including the weather forecast, is also accessible from the welcome screen. Lastly, an easy option to provide feedback on customer service has been added.

“’My Westerville’ truly puts City services in your hands,” said Christa Dickey, Westerville Community Affairs Administrator. “The menu has been streamlined so that options are as intuitive and user-friendly as possible. We want residents and visitors to be able to tell us what’s going on in the community with just a few taps on their phone or tablet.”

The app is in its first version on the PublicStuff system, and will be regularly reviewed to expand and enhance its functionality. For more information, or to send feedback to staff, please e-mail [email protected].

“MY WESTERVILLE” INTRODUCED AS NEW CITY APP

Imagine Westerville has been coined the name of the community’s comprehensive planning process. Now more than a year and a half in the making, this extensive planning project has been widely promoted for the public’s participation in a series of events, asking residents to assess plan options and help create policies. The outcome of Imagine Westerville will be the publication of a community plan, a strategic guide that expresses the values and aspirations of a community. It is the broadest public policy document our community can create, and will set forth the long-range vision for development, housing, environment, economic development, transportation, and related topics. This document gives a universal view of the City, is a tool to prepare for change, and acts as both a business plan and guidebook for decision-makers. The plan, now in draft form, will be open for public inspection as part of a series of meetings and hearings scheduled to gain input before its official adoption by Westerville City Council early next year. There are a number of ways you can get—or stay—involved.

1. TAKE AN ONLINE TOURVisit imaginewesterville.org to get a perspective on the plan’s current status and see where and when it will be presented. Read more about the public input process that has shaped the document. 2. SEE IT IN-PERSONThe public review draft will be available for its 30-day inspection throughout the month of August (Monday, August 3 – Monday, August 31) at various sites as well as online. Hard copies will be available at the City building at 64 E. Walnut St, City Hall, the Westerville Public Library, the Westerville Area Chamber of Commerce and Westerville City Schools district offices. 3. SAVE THE DATEAt least two public hearings are scheduled at Westerville Planning Commission on Wednesday, September 23 and Wednesday, October 28. Planning Commission meets these nights at City Hall (21 S. State St) beginning at 6:30 p.m. The schedule is also available at www.westerville.org.

“I have been here for

13 years, since the

Community Center

opened and I love it. I

usually work the 5:30

a.m. - 1:30 p.m. shift

and always get the

same questions: What

time does the pool

open? What kind of

fitness equipment do

we have? And most

recently, When are we

going to build on?”

A MIRACLE ON 34TH STREETCLASSIC RADIOCAST

Westerville Parks and Recreation is excited to announce plans for a second Civic Theatre production in 2015, “A Miracle on 34th Street”. This radiocast of the classic story gives us a reason to believe. The players at a fictional 1940’s Westerville radio station will put their spin on the holiday classic - “Miracle on 34th Street.”

As they bring to life this classic story through dozens of character voices and live sound effects, you’ll be introduced to Kris Kringle, the charming Macy’s mascot put on trial for claiming to be the real Santa Claus. Winning the trial and restoring faith in the most precious parts of Christmas will require nothing short of a miracle.

Opportunities exist for those ages 10 and older in:Singing (this is not a musical, but some singing is required for specific parts)ActingSet Design and ConstructionCostumesLightsSound

Audition packets will be available Tuesday, September 8 at the Westerville Community Center Front Desk. For more information, call the Program Leader at (614) 901-6575 or email [email protected]

THE BENEFITS OF PARKS AND RECREATION: JILL SCHMALLOne of the benefits of the Westerville Parks and

Recreation Department is the positive impact it has on

the lives of the people that use the many parks, trails, and

facilities available. The many programs and amenities

help to improve the health of the community, are a

draw for business development, and improve real estate

value. However, this benefit is not limited merely to the

visitors to our parks. It extends to the staff that works

here as well. Jill Schmall is both an example of a superior

employee and a model of what the benefits of parks and

recreation use can accomplish.

Less than two years ago, Jill’s doctor told her that while

her weekly exercise routine was helping her stay fit,

her weight was putting strain on her body that could

result in an early death. Since getting the news, Jill has

added healthy eating habits to her exercise routine

and is currently only 13 pounds away from her target

weight. She has now lost over 140 pounds and has given

presentations at Riverside Methodist Hospital on how

she accomplished her dramatic weight loss. She credits

discipline as much as good eating habits and exercise to

getting to a healthy weight.

“The aquatics staff has been so supportive; as well as the many members who gave encouragement.” said Jill. “Everyone is always so concerned and helpful. My goal became their goal.”

WHAT IS THAT DOGTRYING TO TELL YOU? CONTINUOUS

LEARNING


Most children love dogs. In fact, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA,) dogs are one of the #1 pets across the country. In Westerville, dogs can be seen walking, jogging and running, playing in the parks, even swimming with their owners. Have you ever wondered how to approach a dog or what their body language is trying to tell you? Dogs use sounds and signals to understand their surroundings, but they also have a specific body language that allows them to communicate their emotional state and their intentions to others around them. Understanding what your dog or a dog you see in public is saying can give you a lot of useful information, such as when they are nervous or might be ready to snap at someone.

Westerville Parks and Recreation is offering a new

one-day class this fall for children ages 7 – 12 years

old helping to learn more about how to read a dog’s

body language. From tail wagging to ear pricking,

participants will learn what a friendly or strange dog

is trying to tell you. For more information about this

class, see page 38.

THE ZENTANGLE® METHODHave you ever drawn designs on paper while on the phone or waiting for someone, then realized that what you were drawing was a bunch of repetitive shapes and lines? Then Zentangle® is right for you!

The Zentangle® method was created by Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas with the hope that it would provide a fun way for people to relax and de-stress while creating beautiful pieces of art. It is not necessary to be an artist to create a Zentangle® because there is no “correct” way to complete a piece; the only limitation is your creativity. Specific patterns are available through classes, websites and books and may be incorporated into your designs, but do not have to be. Your project can come completely from your mind and often starts out one way only to end looking like something you were not expecting.

SO WHAT IS ZENTANGLE®?Zentangle® is a series of deliberate pen and ink strokes. There is a specific way of drawing that must be learned, but no artistic talent is required. With practice, people have been known to sleep better, feel more relaxed, have increased concentration and focus and feel empowered. Zentangle® is so popular that there is a huge following online with images of drawings on Flickr, Photobucket, Google images, Pinterest and stock image websites.

CREATIVEARTS



Parks and Recreation Department instructor Laura Emler learned the art of Zentangle® last November.

“People came from all over the world to learn the method,” said Emler. “In my training there were 13 countries represented. You don’t need to speak English to tangle and create!”

There is no right or wrong in Zentangle®. Mistakes are considered opportunities to create something new. “Just like in life, you cannot erase your mistakes; you must go on correcting your course going a different way, making something new,” said Emler.

Focus is a major part of Zentangle for Emler. Tangling helps her reach that place where nothing else is in her mind except drawing one stroke at a time.

“Zentangle for me has become a practice of meditative drawing. I look at the time and realize that three hours has passed and I was totally unaware.”

NEW FITNESS OPPORTUNITIESAT THE COMMUNITY CENTERWant to start working out this fall? Try one of the new classes being offered at the Community Center.

Core Fusion is a full-body strengthening and toning class using small, isometric movements to work multiple muscle groups. The upper body section uses light dumbbells but the only other resistance used is your own body weight. This class has a combination of both strength and tone exercises including push-ups, planks, plies, squats, leg lifts and a signature curl section that you will only get from Core Fusion. At only 30-minutes, it is the perfect complement to your additional strength training exercises.

Piloxing Barre is an exciting new fitness ‘Barre’ workout that combines the same fundamentals from Piloxing (Pilates, Boxing and Dance) but with the added support of a Barre. This comprehensive, well-rounded workout is low-impact, yet intensity building. The Barre becomes a tool for balance as well as giving you the ability of additional range of motion.

Core Fusion is a two-day a week class available in a 28-class session beginning September 8. See page 50 for additional information. Piloxing Barre is available in a 14-class session beginning September 13. See page 51 for additional information.

Not sure which class is right for you? All fitness classes, with the exception of yoga and pilates, are available at a drop-in rate of $4.50 class, $3 class for residents.

The 96,000-square-foot facility, opened November 2001, was designed to bring the outside in. When residents and visitors enter the rotunda they are treated to a panoramic view of many of the features of the Center including the track and fitness room, gymnasium, climbing wall, indoor leisure pool, indoor playground, and teen room. The information desk serves as the central location for visitor’s questions, registration and pass sales. Visitors have the option to pay daily admissions, purchase a pass for individual features of the facility or purchase an ultimate pass, which is the most economical and includes admission to all features.

The rotunda leads to two wings, an activity wing and a program wing. Just a short trip down the north corridor takes visitors to the activity wing and a checkpoint station where daily admissions are taken and passes are scanned for the fitness room, watering hole, track and gymnasium. Just down the south corridor resides the program wing featuring a cluster of multi-functional rooms designed to host a variety of events. The program wing has six reservable rooms and is where recreation and fitness classes are most often conducted, child care is housed, and rental facilities are located. The Community Center also offers meeting and gathering space.

The Westerville Parks and Recreation staff has been proud to serve the hundreds of thousands who have benefited from this facility. For more information visit www.westerville.org/parks.
