"It was a little disheartening," said Brian May of the Adrian De- xelopment Group based in Coral Gables. "I wish someone would have tipped me off beforehand." The commission voted 4-0 (one member was missing) not to transmit a DRI (development of regional impact) application for Cedar Creek to the Depart- .ment of Community Affairs in Tallahassee because Adrian did not address the county's new policy of setting aside acreage for development of "high-wage" jobs. The board was swayed, by Ginger Barber, director of both the Baker County Chamber of Commerce and Baker County Development Commission, that the formula for industrial acre- age as a percentage of the total development insures the county won't be stuck with only "roof tops." Strictly residential projects, B P sh 01 B M e' Ji Glen fines for illegal use of wells The Glen St. Mary Town Council decided November 21 to fine residents who tap into exist- ing deep wells for household use after they connect to the munici- pal water system. After some discussion that .evening, the board, decided to levy a $1000 fine for violators, plus make them fork over legal and other costs in the event Glen has to shut down its central water system due to contamination. Councilmen fear interruption of water service similar to that in Macclenny earlier this month when one of the city's aging water mains burst resulting in a "boil order" until the entire net- work tested free of contaminants. The order lasted three days. So far, there have been but two cases of well use, both by cus- (See page 2) the current thinking goes, don't generate sufficient property tax- es to fund added governmental services.

Many work- ers receive their boxes during a Thanksgiving dinner at the port. According to Ms. Rowe, the workers on the cargo ships come from many different countries. They can't take time off during Christmas because their fami- lies too badly need the money they send home. Many work- ers are on the ships for thirty day stretches because their trav- el route takes them around the cape of South America instead of crossing through the Panama Canal. "It's a long time to go without seeing your family, especially ,at Christmas," said Ms. Rowe. "So the gift boxes are greatly appreciated." When asked which items are most popular, Ms. Rowe is quick to point out that toiletries are al- ways welcome. Magazines, sta- tionary and phone cards to call home are big with the workers. "I'm a big supporter of the port ministries," she said. "It provides many services and functions as a welcome sta- tion for the folks getting off the ships. They even have Bibles in every language you can imagine and volunteer pastors who offer spiritual counseling. "Our shoe box mission pro- vides a little 'box of fun' during the holiday season and makes them feel welcome," she said. 6 9076488'19 8 COVERING BAKER COUNTY SINCE 1929 The county's most professional and extensive source for news, classified, display and real estate listings www.bakercountypress.com ** 904.259.2400 *. 904.259.6502 Fax .. bcpress@nefcom.net boxes for this i holiday mis- lsion," said Ms. Rowe.

Lima Street, Baldwin 266-1041 www.countryfcu.com Glen Council votes to fine well violators (From page 1) tomers who resumed using them after failing, to pay the town's average $25 monthly water bill. Mayor Juanice Padgett said one of them has since moved; the oth- er is re-connected and attempting to catch up the arrearage. Newly-hired town attorney Joel Foreman of Lake City urged stiff fines for what he termed "a breach of trust" when residents deprive the town of revenue by using their own wells after con- necting to the central water sys- tem. At present, Glen has water service only south of US 90, and, plans expansion when grants and favorable loans become avail- able. If fines and other costs go un-- paid, the town will place a lien on property preventing sale until they are paid, along with interest if applicable. Councilman Dickie Foster, a plumbing contractor, again reminded the board state law forbids wells within 75 feet of septic tanks unless water is used for irrigation only. The town will continue to allow that. Mr. Foreman will add the fine portion to a pending utilities or- dinance, one of several such "housekeeping" matters he has been asked to resolve. The attorney also reported last week he is further researching an ordinance on impact fees, and recommended Glen take "a fresh look" at them. The town in July approved a $2750 fee for new construction to offset an increase in services, and will collect the $1500 assessment for the school district. Mayor Padgett said she fa- vors a system like Macclenny's where revenues are funneled out to agencies like fire and rescue, police and road department. In a workshop prior to that evening's meeting, the council ordered a $100 security deposit from tenants connecting to the water system, compared to $35 for homeowners. Mayor Padgett urged the higher amount because renters are more likely to leave Glen St. Mary with past due util- ity bills. That policy will also be incor- porated intp the utility ordinance along with the well prohibition. The council authorized a sur- vey to determine boundaries of Blocks 1 and 2,in the northwest quadrant of Glen, areas believed to be in the original plat but now not included. Attorney Foreman recom- mended the action prior to title searches and other means to determine jurisdiction. A land- owner in the disputed section near North Monroe claims she is outside the town's boundaries and thus not subject to Glen's or- dinances. The missing blocks are among several matters that have long pended resolution in Glen St. Mary. A survey will 'cost an esti- mated $8000. Councilman Jack Reneau will inspect a town-owned lot behind the Glen post office before land preparation starts for future con- struction of a maintenance de- partment storage yard. Consider- able fill will be required and thus tree removal. Want to read the paper online?

Michelle Anderson, 26, was at the wheel of an eastbound 2002 Mitsubishi that crossed the cen- ter line and flipped on Interstate 10 near SR 228 the morning of May 18, 2006. The accident killed Jayne N. Dacquisto, 21, of Midlothian, Va., a suburb of Richmond. The accident injured Ms. An- derson and another passenger. The three were enroute to a west Florida wedding. A blood alcohol sample taken from the driver after she arrived by helicopter at Shands Jackson- ville showed an alcohol content of. .187, more than twice that considered drunk in Florida. She was arrested November 8 and Judge Glant this week reduced bond from the original $300,000. The FHP report noted Ms. An- derson smelled of alcohol after the accident and troopers found two liquor bottles in the car's in- terior.

He has appealed the earlier sentence. Charles Womack III pleaded no contest to child abuse for hav- ing sex with a 15-year-old Glen St. Mary female earlier this year and received a one year, one day prison sentence. He will be on probation four years following release. Johnnie Carter will be in county jail nine months after pleading to felony driving with a suspended license, and Leonard Jones drew a six-month term for sale and delivery of cocaine. Jeffery Dove will be on pro- bation two years as a felony vio- lator for driving on a suspended license and Heather Harvill drew a similar sentence for obtaining prescription drugs by fraud. A capias warrant was issued for the arrest of Mark Bingaman, who failed to appear in court for felony possession of marijuana and paraphernalia. His bond was set at $40,000 once he is in cus- tody.

"There is no study I know of that shows if we set aside that kind of acreage it will create those high-wage jobs. I don't know of any other devel- opment that has done this! It's very short-sighted." Mr. May said he told Ms. Bar- ber the company's market analy- sis showed most jobs in that cat- egory going in the direction of Cecil Field's Commerce Center in west Duval County. "It's not about putting land aside. The jobs will come to Baker County with a develop- ment like this," he believes. That's not the way Commis-. sion Chainnan Alex Robinson sees it. "Had that (the land set-aside) and other matters been answered up front, I wouldn't have had a problem sending it off for transmittal," said Mr. Robinson, a week after the vote. "If you do something like thiis the right way, with questions ans\\ ered up front, it has my support Chairman Robinson said he would .not rescind his vote last week, and planned to give the DRI proposal another hearing after the six-month interval..

At this early stage, Adrian won't be slipping any fast ones by the commission, and ulti- mately the board has final say over Cedar 'Creek even if the DCA gives it the green light. The state planning agency will pick the plan apart, suggesting changes ranging from road pav- ing to street width and treatment of % wetlands. before it gets off the launch pad. The Baker County Commis- sion made a strong statement last week by turning its back on the DRI process. It could have made the same statement less stridently and still preserve its resolve to do this right.

Usually what happened in such arguments was that Spencer got frustrated and mad and start calling Dylan names. They never were able to use "bad words" like stupid or idiot, so instead they made up their own insults. Spencer, who had the worst temper of the two, invariably puffed up, turned red and said, "Dylan ... you're a ... buttsniff- er." Dylan would run through the house looking for his mother. "Mama, Spencer called me a buttsniffer." They both were loyal Barney fans. They wandered through the house all day long singing "I love you, you love me ..." It drove us all crazy because it is one of those "earworm" songs that stick with you whether you want it to or not and at work, I'd be singing "I love you, you love me ...", One day, Spencer walked into our bedroom wearing nothing but his X-Men underwear. He had opinion! Dear Editor: My husband and I recently went through a rough time with our small child. Just over two months ago, he became ill and we took him to his regular doctor. We then discovered he had a problem with fluid on his ears, along with a runny nose and cough. Two months and several different medicines later he is still sick. During his last visit to the first doctor he was sent for an x-ray of his head to see if he had a blockage or sinus infection. Three days later, our son was even worse, so we took him for a sec- ond opinion. We discovered he had developed pneumonia in his left lung and had a declining oxygen level. After a breathing treatment, a change in medication and a damn good scare, I still wonder why his condition was not caught sooner, or how it could have gotten this bad in just a couple of days. This letter is not intended to hurt or damage anyone, it's just a way of saying a second opinion can't hurt. It may be the best way to go. Christina Reneau Glen St. Mary painted himself purple. "Look, Mama. I'm Barney." I thought of that the last time he painted his face red and gold and put a cut- out basketball on his head for a .Wildcat game. It's hard seeing them all grown up. Dylan will graduate from high school this year and both of them have turned into fine young men. But I still wouldn't be sur- prised if one day they showed up in my bedroom dressed in their underwear and painted purple. I wouldn't be surprised at all.

Gordon Taylor,. 37, of Sander- son was at the wheel passed out when confronted by Deputy Mi- chael Lagle just after 6:00. His 1991 Ford Ranger was parked in front of Konnie's Pools in the Park West strip center on US 90, and the officer noted the tail lights indicated the pickup was' in reverse. When Mr. Taylor awoke, he, began backing the pickup and it struck the push bar on the front of Deputy Lagle's patrol car and, came, to a .stop. He refused to exit the vehicle, and attempted to yank the driver side door closed before the. officer and Deputy Jeffrey :Dawson pulled him out and handcuffed him. Deputy Lagle said there was no odor of alcohol, but Mr. Tay- lor was sweating profusely in the slurred. He was charged with DUI and refused to submit to tests at county jail. Neither his truck nor the po- lice car sustained damage in the light collision. In other cases, a motorist caught speeding on SR 125 just after midnight on November 25 turned out to be an habitual traf-, fic offender whose license has been suspended nine times. Deputy Curtis Ruise said he clocked Aaron Simmons, 31, of Sanderson at 74 in a 55 mph zone. A computer check con- firmed the past violations and Mr. Simmons' 2000 Nissan pickup was towed from the scene while he was taken to jail. He was also ,given a ticket for speeding. In another traffic-related ar- rest, Martin Garcia, 41, of Glen St. Mary was charged with re- sisting Deputy Sgt. Thomas Dyal by insisting he was the driver of a vehicle involved in an accident on Smokey Road the evening of November 25. Mr. Garcia said he was trying to protect the real driver.

'Deputy John Hardin said he received information that Ma- chel Givens, 40, of Sanderson, wanted on an outstanding war- rant for failure to pay child sup- port, was at the Club 229. He found her seated in a vehicle, arid she initially gave him a false name, then snatched away her arm when told she was under arrest. Deputy Hardin said Ms. Givens shoved him with her free hand whenhen he again attempted to handcuff her, then ran away. The officer while chasing the suspect fired a first Taser shot that was ineffective because only one of the two probes made con- tact. The second shot was effec- tive, but Ms. Givens continued to resist -being handcuffed until DepurN Tony Norman arrived to assist. Ms Givens ik 5'4" tall and weighs 202 pounds, according to the incident report. She was booked at county jail for battery on a la% enforcement officer and resisting arrest with- out violence. The first charge is a felony; the second a misde- meanor. In other cases,, a bar patron was charged late on November 25 with aggravated battery for injuring another man by striking him with a beer bottle. Deputy Mark Hall said he found Virgil Jewell, 26, of Sand- erson walking west from Mac's Liquors in dox\ nto\\ n N lacclenny shirtless and bleeding. Both Mr. Je\ ell and a witness said Mel- vin Mann, 24, also of Sanderson, struck him with the bottle as he w alked out of the bar. He sought' treatment at Fraser Hospital for a laceration above the eye. Police said NAr. Mlann also had an outstanding %\arrant for felo- ny forgery. Robert Ryan, 39, of Miami Springs, Fla. was charged with battery and two drug-related counts following a Thanksgiving Day altercation 4t the home of a relative on Hickory St. in Mac- clenny. Police were called to the scene about 1:45 am and found James Ryan, 32, of Davie, Fla. bleeding. from the face and with several fa- cial bruises he said were caused by repeated blows from his older brother. The younger Ryan said he did not fight back because the accused was intoxicated. Deputy James Parham mI also found a small amount of mari- juana in a plastic bag, along with a prescription pill that the sus- pect was attempting to hide in his hand while being questioned. He was booked for misdemeanor possession and possession of a controlled substance. A criminal complaint for ag- gravated assault tas filed No- iember 20 against Juan Bals, 36, of Sanderson for allegedly threatening to kill girlfriend Eli- za Baker. 42, in the presence of her children. Ms. Baker told Deputy Mark Hall the boN friend made similar threats in the past and when she told him to leave her residence off Bay St. he threatened to burn it down. She was also advised to obtain a restraining order barring him from the property. Another criminal complaint, this one made the evening of No- vember 25, alleges Jason Oralls struck girlfriend. Selena Roberts, 33, in the stomach with a 2X4 board. Ms. Roberts said she and the 32-year-old boyfriend argued at a Blair St. residence that evening before 7:00 and threw laundry .detergent on each other before the accused left the residence to retrieve the board N Is.

Coach Charles Ruise called time out with 5.1 seconds left in the game and the Cats trailing by a point. Nate Strachen got the in-bound ball and went up for the shot. It missed and Thomas pulled down the layup and immediately put the ball in as his teammates and fans mobbed him. It was a fitting ending to, the game since Strachen and Thomas carried the team much of the way. Strachen got ten of his game-high 12 points in the first half, and Thomas got all his, 8 points in the second half. He also played extremely well on defense, pulling down multiple rebounds. The Cats actually held a 16- 12 lead at the end of the first on the strength of some key Ike Parker free throws. , The Indians pulled closer as the second period progressed and tied the ball game on a dunk with 3:50 to go in the half. The large Baldwin crowd exploded. But soon after, Kyle Kennedy drained a three pointer and Thorne Crowley also. hit from beyond the three point-line. The Wildcats extended their lead to a 28-20 margin at the half. Both teams started ice cold in the second half. Baldwin tried to rely on three pointers but they wouldn't drop. The Indians closed to within three. points before Thomas hit a basket at the end of the third period to put BCHS up 34-29. The Wildcats had a hard time penetrating Baldwin's 2/3 zone,' 'and instead of forcing them into man to man coverage, they pushed the ball inside where it was stolen. Baldwin narrowed the game to two points w ith 2:30 left in the game and then took the lead at 1:51 to go. That's when things really got exciting. The Indians missed the top end of a one-and-one and the Cats got the ball back. Strachen, who only had one basket in the second half, tried to penetrate on the baseline but was hemmed in by two Indian players. Ruise saw the predicament and wisely called time out. Strachen's last. second shot, came off the backboard right into Thomas' hands. He went up almost uncontested for the layup and the \win. The Cats host Stanton Prep on Thursday at 6:00 and 7:30 pm.

Thank CR 229 North, to CR 124, North The BCHS Lady Wildcat bas- ketball team had a rough week leading into the Thanksgiving break, dropping a pair of games to two of the top teams in the district. The were handled easily by an athletic Bradford County squad, but battled Ridgeview down to the wire on the road. Bradford cruised to a 31-57 win over the Wildcats on the girls' home court on Monday. The Tornadoes ran out to an early lead and never relinquished it leading horn to horn. It was a frustrating night for Coach Franklin Griffis. "They jumped on us early and it took until the second half until we finally settled down enough to play decent ball," commented Griffis. Bradford's fast break was devastating in the early going, cutting through the Lady \Wild- cat defense like butter. Bradford held an 7-20 lead at the end of the first quarter. The pace slowed a little in the second period, but the 1Wildcats could not manage to put the ball in the basket. The\ onl\ scored two buckets in the second period and \\ere outscored 4-14. The Tornadoes \\ere up 34-11 at the break. The Wildcats played the Tor- nadoes even in the third period. but couldn't claw their \\wa back into the game. Bradford's first half lead \was insunnountable. The shooting woes showed in the box scores. None of the Cat players reached double figures, with Destin\ de la Pena and Brit- tan\ Hinson leading the \\ay with six points. Kara Dupree had fi'e points. Brittan\ Ruise, Deanna McKenzie and Caitlin Griffis had four points and Mea- gan Osteen a basket. The girls battled Ridgeview basket-to-basket, but in the end they were derailed by free throw shooting and lost 43-40 to their district foes. They came back from the big loss to Bradford and played well enough to win, but the ball didn't fall in their favor. The Cats fell behind to Rid- geview early and trailed 7-14 points at the end of the first pe- riod. But they clawed their way back to a 22-28 deficit at the half. Neither team shot well after the intermission, but the Cats made a big surge in the fourth quarter to almost come back and win the game. Coach Griffis was enthusiastic about the effort. "I. was very proud of the fact that we were down by 12 in the fourth quarter and fought back to within two points," said Griffis. "The girls ne\er quit playing hard and we had a couple of op- portunities to w in." In the end. it was the tree throw shooting that cost them the \\in. The Cats shot onlI 27' c from the line. and when it counted the most. the ball %wouldn't drop. Hinson led the Cats with 14 points, hitting four three point- ers. Griffis added 8 'ind Ruise 7 points. Destin\ de la Pena hit for 5 and Meagan Osteen. Sarah Tra\iick and Deanna NIcKenzie all had a basket. The Lad\ Cats have a big ataa\ match at Santa Fe on Thursday\ before returning to pla\ First Coast at home on FIn- da\ night. Game times are 6:00( and 7:30 pm.
