Fertilizer law seems to

help stave off red tide


BY GERALD A. ROGOVIN
CORRESPONDENT

The first hints that the re-
cently adopted county fertil-
izer ordinance is already
working emerged earlier this
week.
Water samples collected
Tuesday revealed that Karenia
brevis, the Florida red tide
organism, ranged in concen-
trations from medium to high
on both Florida coasts.
But not in Sarasota County.
Fish kills were reported
four to 16 miles off Pensacola,
in St. Joseph Bay in Gulf
County and near Daytona
Beach.


Although some low-level
red tide blooms were detect-
ed offshore in Collier County
and South Sarasota County
by the Healthy Gulf Coalition
Tuesday, the organization
stated that, "a huge dent in
the nutrients that wash into

since the fertilizer ordinance

Building a better Venice


Candidates differ over
ways to enhance
downtown Venice and
improve its vitality.

BY GREG GILES
NEWS EDITOR

It was all business Wed-
nesday at the Venite Main-
Street forum for city council
candidates.
On the minds of the
small-business owners in
attendance: how to maintain
the economic stability of
downtownVenice as a tourist
destination.
They specifically wanted
to know more about candi-
date views on additional
downtown hotels and park-
ing.
On economic vitality
Mayor Fred Hammett,
trying to retain seat no. 7,
pointed to his expei'"nce on
council when it passed the
largest tax reduction in
recent years, and to bringing
Tervis Tumbler to Venice.
He proposed the city
study U.S. 41 Bypass funding
options as a way to grow
business east of 1-75 and
bring more higher-paying
manufacturing jobs into the
area to support additional
service industry jobs.
, He said he's still searching
for a solution to affordable
housing.
"It's really an across-the-
board problem. As funny as
it may sound, we actually"
have doctors having a hard
time finding appropriate
housing," Hammett said.
"Venice has to be more
friendly to manufacturers."

MORE FORUMS
There are more opportunities slated for city council can-
didates to get their message out.
The Venice Aviation Society Inc. will host a forum
Wednesday, Oct. 17, at 7 p.m. at city hall.
Others include the Venice-Nokomis Rotary
Club/Sertoma Club forum, Thursday, Oct. 18, at noon at
Grace Methodist Church; Capri Isles Homeowners
Association, Oct. 24; and South County Tiger Bay Club,
Oct. 26 at the Venice Yacht Club.


As for a stable downtown
Venice economy he pointed
to:U.S. World & News Repi6rt
listing Venice as a top 10 re-
tirement destination.
I "It's a testirtibny to the
good work we've done," he
said.
His opponent, Ed Martin,,
said if elected he would re-
'vamp the building permit
process.
The first task, he said,


would be to ask the city
,manager to report on the
city's permitting process to
see where it can be stream-
lined.
He blamed faulty zoning
designations, like the com-
mercial, mixed-use district,
for inviting taller buildings
into the downtown area
without adequate public in-
put, and for throwing up
unnecessary roadblocks to


development.
'Are we doing all' we can
to streamline the process?"
he asked. "We need to do this
well. That's how we can help
drive responsible building."
Martin said, if elected, he
would conduct town hall
meetings in the evening for
the public to express their
views and improve commu-
nications with the public.
"People say they don't feel
they're being listened to."

Disaster plan worked out for keys


BY GERALD A. ROGOVIN
CORRESPONDENT


The No. 1 topic at the Oct. 19 retreat of
the Sarasota County Board of Com-
missioners is expected to be how
Manasota, Casey and Siesta keys will be
redeveloped after a cataclysmic storm.
Specifics of a contract worked out by
the county Coastal Resources Depart-
ment and Continental Shelf Associates
Inc., will be presented to the commis-
sioners.
"This very ambitious effort, which will
take about 18 months, should go forward'
next month," said Laird S. Wreford,
coastal resources manager.
State law and the county comprehen-
sive plan require a post-disaster recovery
plan. It was supposed to be in place by
the end of this year, following the disas-
trous summer and fall of 2005 when 27
named storms including Katrina,
Wilma and Dennis surpassed the pre-
vious record of 21 and exhausted the list
of official names.
Wreford has headed a task force of
county staff from several departments,
stakeholders residing on the three keys,
and officials ofVenice, Longboat Key and
Sarasota, the state and federal govern-
ments that will develop a plan.
A report he submitted to the commis-
sioners 16 months ago provided a "road
map" to where, when and how restora-
tion of food, power and utilities will be
accomplished after emergency response
activities have been addressed.
In the event of widespread destruc-.

munities must be prepared to deal with

Homes like these on Casey Key will be the topic of a retreat discussion of the Sarasota
County Board of Commissioners on redevelopment after a disaster.The questions surround
how to restore utilities to areas such as Casey, Manasota and Siesta keys following a cata-
clysmic storm.


"the enormous challenge of redevelop-
ment," he wrote. "Without a strategic
plan in place, the redevelopment of a
coastal community will occur randomly
and chaotically. It may produce a final
result that is detrimental to the entire
county."

Wreford cited the experience of
Walton County in Florida's Panhandle
following Hurricane Dennis in 2005.
Under the authority of "emergency per-


mits," more than 250 seawalls were built
hurriedly.
"That all but eliminated sandy beach-
es," he said. "The gulf shoreline was
hardened to the point that marine life
and beachgoers were affected adverse-
ly."

tions" moderated by a facilitator is

Beach reopened; county vows protection


BY JACK GURNEY
PELICAN PRESS

A $2.3 million Sarasota
County drainage project to fix
the old stormwater retention
pond next to Siesta Public
Beach was approved two years
ago, but the money was then
squirreled away until a master
plan for improvements to the
entire park area could be final-
ized.
The strategy may have
backfired two weeks ago
*when county public health
officials .posted "Swimming
Not Recommended" signs
along the beach because of
water pollution, possibly
from shore birds feasting on
seaweed or filthy overflow
from the pond.


On Tuesday, the county
commission decided waiting
to fix the pond so it no longer
overflows and spills dirty
water onto the public beach
was not worth the risk of los-
ing tourists. It ordered the
money be spent on a long-
overdue project.
"We've held this money up
waiting for a parks plan that
has no money," Commission
Chair Nora Patterson said.
"Draining stormwater onto
one of the nicest beaches, in
Florida is not acceptable. It
looks like a septic tank drain-
ing onto the beach, even if it
isn't."
Several commissioners ex-
pressed surprise the work
never started.
"I do not understand why


something has not been
done," Commissioner Shan-
non Staub said.
Deputy County Adminis-
trator David Bullock explained
why the project had been held
up, then indicated efforts were
under way to finally get the
problem resolved.
"We're putting together a
scope of services and meeting
with an engineer today,"
Curtis Smith, a county project
manager, told the newspaper.
"We have a feasibility study.
but need final design work.
We'll get into the ground as
fast as we can."
Pipeline
The plan shelved two years
ago calls for the pond to be'
enlarged and a coastal wet-


land created to help clean
stormwater that drains off
. Siesta Key roads. Overflow
water will then be conveyed
through an underground pipe
for disposal in the Grand
Canal.
Last Wednesday, the health
department removed warning
signs that had been posted for
more than a week. They were
placed near the beach to cau-
tion swimmers after tests indi-
cated fecal matter levels in
excess of established safety
levels.
The health department
routinely tests water at all
public beaches for bacteria
levels. Fecal coliform tests
measure the amount of fecal
matter present from either
animals or humans.

County gears up for next year's tax battle


DIRF AY OCT 12 20 7


BY JOHN HAUGHEY
STAFF WRITER

Sarasota County's legisla-
tive priorities next year will
feature the same goal as 2007's
Tallahassee wish list did: da-
mage control.
"We will continue to be in a
defensive posture." said Mar-
sha Hosack, county Intergov-
ernmental Relations Manager.
Tuesday, commissioners
began the preliminary stages
of formulating their state
Legislature lobbying strategy.
Four priorities will remain
the same as last year:
Tax reform in addition
to opposing proposed Save

could further dilute property
tax revenues, Sarasota County
is among local governments
lobbying legislators to tighten
sales-tax exemptions and con-
sider taxing Internet sales.
Road money a priority


BY COURTNEY LINN
STAFF WRITER

After twice advertising their
intention to give preference to
local contractors, the Sarasota
County School Board members
decided to pull the plug on the
idea.
At their Oct. 9 board work-
shop, most of the board mem-
bers were against the policy
change because of the potential
problems it could cause.
"It's something we need to
look at again," Board Member
Shirley Brown said, "so we don't
invite lawsuits."
Kraft Construction hired an
attorney because of the poten-
tial policy change. Kraft has built
schools for the district in the
past, .
a.'giBoard Member.CarolTodd
disagreed.
"I don't want to make a deci-
sion based on fear of litigation,"
she said. "I want to make a deci-
sionbased onwhats bestfor our
schools."
Todd has been in favor of giv-
ing preference to local builders
because, she said, she felt that
local contractors would best


virtually everywhere in Flori-
da, the county wants to ensure
it gets planned allotments to
finance already approved pro-
jects, such as the U.S. 41 Bypass.
The state's Transportation
Trust Fund fared relatively well
during the 2007 legislative ses-
sion, Hosack said.
The "good news is they did-
n't raid the transportation
fund," she said, calling that
hesitancy in an otherwise
sliced-and-diced budget a
recognition that road im-
provements are "a good invest-
ment in the community."
Affordable housing the
county wants the state Sa-
dowski Fund for housing "fully
appropriated.",
Local autonomy the
county, like most Florida local
governments, wants to halt
the steady erosion of home
rule by the state, particularly
when it comes to unfunded
mandates.


serve schools. She also thought
it would help Sarasota County's
economy.
But according to Brown, in
addition to potential violations
of state and federal laws re-
garding interstate commerce,
favoring local contractors to
help Sarasota County's econo-
my is not a good enough reason
to give them preference.
"We can't protect local bus-
inesses just from an economic
purpose," Brown said. '"We have
to come up with abetter reason."
Todd looked at it from a dif-
ferent perspective.
"It appears that our decision
(to pull the local preference pol-
icy) is now protecting the eco-
nomic interest of Kraft," she
said.
Because of the desire to not
hold up construction of Ele-
mentary School "I", in North
Port, the school board members
agreed to pull the policy change
from the Oct. 16 agenda.
While they are keeping the
policy the same, they are going
to give more input to the com-
mittees that select the contrac-
tors.
clinn@venicegondolier.com ,


Sustainability this is a
new priority commissioners
believe could actually gain
traction in the Legislature
because it could resonate with
Gov. Charlie Crist's alternate
energy emphasis.
Down side
Commissioner Shannon
Staub suggested the county
lobby for state seed money to
establish a "center for sustain-
ablity" to serve as an "um-
brella" consolidation for re-


search entities, such as an
"institute for aging."
Chair Nora Patterson said
the proposal sounds great in
October in Sarasota, but even
if approved early on by legisla-
tors, it won't survive the bud-
get knives of April.
Commissioner Joe Barbetta
said seeking $200,000 for a
conceptual study about es-
tablishing a "regional node for
alternative energy" is a viable
prospect.
"Sarasota is on the radar


screen to get this center and it
would be a real feather in our
cap," Barbetta said.
There may be money avail-
able for the county's sustain-
ability initiative within the
state's Centers of Excellence
Program, which was estab-
lished in 2003 with a $30 mil-
lion allocation.
The Centers of Excellence
Program essentially takes state
seed money and uses it to sup-
port research and develop-
ment in tandem with a state


research university to help
Florida achieve its goal of
being competitive in a high-
tech economy.
Commissioner Paul Merci-
er said sustainability, especial-
ly in alternate energies, could
have its down side.
'As we get more efficient with
our automobiles, our gas tax
(revenue) goes down," he said.
"I can't wait for that to hap-
pen," Commissioner Jon Thax-
ton said.

Buses to get
new fareboxes
Sarasota County Area
Transit will install new fare-
boxes on all its fixed-route
buses and paratransit vehi-
cles next week. The fare boxes
will take cash and special


magnetic cards.
Manufactured by GFI Gen-
fare, the new fareboxes will
accept $1, $5, $10 and $20
bills, and U.S. coins including
the penny, nickel, dime, quar-
ter, half-dollar and dollar.
Unlike the old fareboxes,
exact change is not needed
with the new fare collection
system.
Instead of giving change in
the form of currency, the new
fareboxes will issue reusable
cards with balances that can
be used for future transit
rides. For example, a transit
user who inserts a $1 bill for
the standard 75-cent, single-
ride fare will get a card back
with a 25-cent balance to-
ward the next ride. Riders also
will be able to purchase pass-
es from the fareboxes, includ-
ing the new $3 daily pass.
The fareboxes will be
installed first on the paratran-
sit vehicles starting next
week; the fixed-route buses
will follow Oct. 19-21. All
SCAT vehicles should be
equipped with the fareboxes
by Monday, Oct. 22. Bus oper-
ators will assist riders on how
to use the new fareboxes.
The $1.5 million farebox
system was federally funded,
requiring no local tax dollars.
For more information
about the fareboxes, call 861-
5000 and ask for Chad Engel,
or e-mail him at cengel@
scgov.net.

TIDE from Page 1A
sioners last month let a
$11,500,000 contract to con-
tinue replacement work.
A "huge" red tide bloom
and fish kills were reported in
St. Johns and Bay counties by
the St. Johns Riverkeeper
organization last month. They
were preceded by rainfall of
more than 23 inches over a
two-week period.
The county ordinance in
September endorsed by the
BOCC controls the types and
quantities of fertilizer that res-
idents can put on their lawns.
Chaney said that the return
of red tide to the area reflects
the current drought.
"If we don't get rain, we die
of thirst," he said. "If we do get
rain, we will, no doubt, get red
tide, too. We have had some
red tide blooms offshore in
the Gulf."

coastal armoring, protect
mangroves and tidal marsh-
es, Wreford said.
The question of which
damaged structures can be
repaired or rebuilt, or have to
be removed following a major
hurricane, has prompted ob-
jections from some Casey Key
homeowners and questions
by the Siesta Key Association.
"We need to be aware of
and sensitive to the opinions
of the coastal population,
from one barrier island to
another, and even within
each barrier island," Wreford


said.
The task force has already
explored how other counties
have funded their post-disas-
ter recovery plans. It has
examined types of construc-
tion- pile-supported houses
vs. use of grade-level slabs -
and enforcement of building
codes. It has also studied the
requirements of the Federal
Emergency Management
Agency and county flood
plain ordinances.
A major part of the effort,
according to Wreford, will be
"a significant public outreach
effort to encourage public
feedback and input."


GANG from Page 1A


over the state, and it scares
me," Enos said. "We are down
six positions, including a cap-
tain, because of budget cuts.
"We need a full-time SRO
in the elementary schools in-
stead of one SRO splitting his
time between two schools."
Enos said gangs have been
known to reach into the ele-
mentary schools for recruit-
ment.
Line in the sand
The schools have dived
head first into the gang issue.
"The district has devel-
oped a gang policy which
spells out the rules," Enos
said. "For instance, you can't
wear (gang) colors, have any-
thing with the gang name on
it, like a notebook or book
bag, certain kinds of clothes
that would identify you as a
gang member."
Police are also using an-


other important tool in the
form of former Crips gang
member turned minister Dan
Merritt (Venice Gondolier
Sun, Sept. 26). Merritt was the
Crips' "outreach director" for
setting up methampheta-
mine labs nationwide.
Enos said that after talking
to Merritt following the
Gondolier Sun article, the dis-
trict has scheduled him to
speak to students at Sarasota
High School later this month.
Merritt, having been there
and done that, looks at the
root causes of gangbanging
when he speaks to teens.
"What I'm seeing is a group
of kids who want to be
accepted, who want to fit in,"
Merritt said. "It's about sur-
vival."

OUR VIEW


Volunteers help keep turtle numbers up


T he latest local and state figures on sea
turtle nesting may be discouraging
for the hundreds of volunteers who
patrol area beaches and the many others
who care about these particular creatures or
the environment in general.
Early statistics show a decline for the
ninth straight year in the number of nests in
Charlotte County and on Manasota Key.
Similar numbers were reported for all of
Sarasota County and the areas used to gauge
numbers for the entire state.
The numbers are preliminary, but it's
unlikely they will change substantially be-
fore the official end of the season on Oct. 31.
The decline comes despite an enormous
effort from local people working on turtle
protection. But we can take heart: There's
every reason to believe the situation would


be worse without local intervention.
Sea turtles have a tough time of it. Under
the best of circumstances, the chances of
survival from egg to maturity are something
like 1,000 to one.
Turtles who manage to survive their early
years travel around the Gulf of Mexico, the
Caribbean and the Atlantic Ocean for years
before returning to our beaches to dig nests
at around age 30. Females may return every
two to four years thereafter up to age 100.
Our local beaches are critical to the
worldwide loggerhead turtle species. Nearly
90 percent of the total population nests in
Florida or Oman, so we play an important
role in maintaining the global loggerhead
turtle nursery.
Local volunteers are doing their part.
Everyone else could try to do better.


The CoastalWildlife Club, based in Engle-
wood, has 130 volunteers who combine to
comb the beaches daily. Mote Marine
Laboratory coordinates the efforts of anoth-
er 230 volunteers in Sarasota County north
of Manasota Key.
They stake out nests and put up signs to
keep people away. Their nest and egg counts
also help establish a statewide database that
provides a scientific basis for biologists
studying turtle species.
Local seashore protection programs -
aimed at keeping furniture off the beach and
dimming disorienting lights is also hav-
ing a positive impact.
Wilma Katz of the Coastal Wildlife Club
said the effect could be seen at the southern
end of Manasota Key, where dense housing
development coexists with turtle nesting.


That's because public turtle lighting educa-
tion has been successful, Katz said, and
more awareness and compliance with local
regulations can only bring greater results.
She also noted the "constant need" for
local governments to keep up the effort.
There are other imple things that can be
done locally. For instance, turtle patrollers
are encountering more problems caused by
dogs running on the beach and tearing up
nests. Pet owners have a responsibility to
keep dogs on a leash.
The turtle population faces big problems:
toxic red tides, international long-line net
fishing, loss of habitat due to beach erosion
and sea wall construction.
But this is a clear case where we can make
a difference when we think globally and act
locally.


Manatees are



still protected


RODNEY BARRETO
GUEST COLUMNIST


A recent letter to the editor
indicated that Gov. Charlie
Crist did the right thing to
delay the reclassification of
the manatee. The letter writer
may be right about that, but
some of his other observa-
tions' require clarification,
which I am pleased to offer in
this response.
First of all, the Florida Fish
and Wildlife Conservation
Commission is not going to
.decide whether the manatee
will lose its protections as an
endangered species when
commissioners consider its
listing status, and more im-
portant, adopt a manage-
ment plan.
The rules and protections
manatees have now would be
exactly the same, even if the
species is moved to the
threatened category on the
state's imperiled species list.
There simply would be no
loss of protection none.
I'd also like to clarify who
has concluded the manatee
population is increasing. It is
not an "anti-manatee contin-
gent" that asserts that claim;
it's scientists from the FWC,
the federal government, uni-
versities and private research
institutions who agree that
manatee numbers are in-
creasing. This is not even a
debated issue.
It is often stated that scien-
tists cannot count manatees
accurately, and thus we can-
not truly assess the popula-
tion. What many people do
not realize is scientists do not
use aerial counts to assess
population trends. That ap-
proach has been resounding-
ly rejected by wildlife popula-
tion experts.
However, by determining
adult survival (the percentage
of adult manatees that live
from year to year) scientists
can determine manatee pop-
ulation trends more reliably.
The conclusions from this
science-based approach?
Manatee numbers are grow-
ing along the entire East Coast
of Florida, in the St. Johns
River and in the northwest
part of the state.
One important trouble
spot remains in Southwest


Florida (where red tide is
most prevalent). While the
data in this part of the state
are less conclusive, manatee
numbers there may be de-
clining slightly.
Confusion over the state's
listing process also is evident.
Florida uses a multi-faceted
approach to assessing the risk
of extinction. Its highest cate-
gory called "endangered"
is defined as a species in
imminent risk of extinction.
The report that a species
would have to undergo an 80-
percent population decline to
qualify for this category ig-
nores the four other criteria
:, thatfigure into classification
decisions, regardless of popu-
lation trends.
They include such things
as size of a species' range and
Aize of the population, which
scientists use to evaluate
whether a species qualifies as
imminently at risk of extinc-
tion. This is the same system
scientists all over the world
use to evaluate the risk of ex-
tinction for species on every
continent.
While, thankfully, the man-
atee is not at imminent risk of
extinction, the bad news is it
does meet criteria that indi-
cate a very high risk of extinc-
tion at some point. In Florida,
we call this category "threat-
ened." Consequently, much
still needs to be done to se-
cure the long-term future of
the manatee. These tasks are
laid out in detail in the state's
Manatee Management Plan.
It is very disheartening to
see the controversy focused
on which category label we
should pin on the manatee
when it is the Manatee Man-
agement Plan that actually
prescribes how the state of
Florida will preserve the spe-
cies for future generations. It
is an excellent plan and has
support from almost all of the
organizations and individuals
who have testified in front of
the commission.
As chair of the FWC, I was
happy to honor the governor's
request and delay the vote. We
have three relatively new com-
missioners, and it is important
they understand the issue and
the plan and are confident they
can vote wisely.
Regardless of what deci-
sions the commission makes
regarding this gentle animal,
it's my view that the manatee
is the icon for conservation in
Florida, and I am extremely
confident this commission
will make the right decision
regarding the future of the
manatee.
Rodney Barreto is chair of
the Florida Fish and Wildlife
Conservation Commission.

LETTERS FROM OUR READERS


North Venice Wal-Mart a shocker


Editor:
The Renaissance project was to include a mix of residential
units, retail stores, a movie theater, bike and walking paths and
a much needed but moderately sized grocery store.
You can understand our shock, therefore, when it was
announced that a Wal-Mart Super Center would now anchor
the Renaissance project. We have also been made aware that
the approval process for this change began in June, and little
discernible effort was made to consult the public on a decision
that will dramatically affect our lives. We feel like we were
betrayed in favor of an attempt to sneak this project through.
We are not necessarily opposed to Wal-Mart, but we do not
think a development of this scope is appropriate for the loca-
tion.
Our community is concerned that our roads simply cannot
support the influx of traffic Wal-Mart will bring. We already face
a crunch with the current development, and we are gravely
concerned that a Super Center, 9,000 new homes, a 20-screen
movie theater and other proposed development will compro-
mise traffic safety and the quality of life we bought into when
we moved to the area.
What we want is a Renaissance project' that represents the,
spirit of the original agreement, and a voice in the decisions
that affect our lives.
We hope the Venice Planning Commission will delay
approval of the project until North Venice residents can be
offered an opportunity to provide input.

Educated people are
worried, too

Editor:
As a loyal Gondolier Sun
reader for more than 20 years,
I was disappointed to read
Jim Clinch's column on the
third of October.
What is he talking about?
He claims to "hang around
better, more intelligent peo-
ple of all ages" and calls the
individuals who are propo-
nents of well-planned growth
"grumpy old folks."
The folks I know who
believe in thoughtful growth
with an eye for aesthetics
tend to have graduate de-
grees. I spoke at a recent
meeting about the federally
protected species on the air-


port property, and I have a
master's degree in library and
information science.
He is correct that many of
the people who are attending
city council meetings are
older. The median age in Ven-
ice is close to 69, and who else
has the time to attend meet-
ings during typical working
hours?
Venice is a very special and
unique Florida community
that was beautifully planned
by John Nolen. By the way, his
plan included a hotel and
jungle gardens on The Es-
planade.
There are strict regulations
regarding federally protected
species. The Florida scrub jay
is the only endemic bird
species in, the state. Those


special birds are clinging on
to the incredibly small bit of
habitat that they have left.
They only live in very specific
habitats, typically containing
scrub oaks. It is very impor-
tant to restore their habitat or
soon these precious and pre-
cocious birds will vanish.

Make peace, get peace
Editor:
Here is an answer to the
Gondolier Sun writer who
asked for a challenge.
I would rather we built
hospitals, schools and post
offices here rather than in
Iraq, which is a tribal theocra-
cy that -may never become
democratic.
Incidentally, the United
States is not a democracy or
Al Gore would be president.
We are a constitutional
republic that is choked by an
outmoded electoral college
that negates the plurality
vote.
We did rescue Kuwait, the
country that always voted
against the United States in
the United Nations, but it was
done due to our oil needs, not
a moral rejection of the Iraq
invasion.
The Middle East hatred for
the United States stems
mainly from our support for
Israel and our meddling into
the Arab world's territory. If
we went all out to help settle
the Israel-Arab differences,
we might mitigate this hatred;
if we don't, things will not
change.

Didn't work
in New Jersey
Editor:
Let me add my voice to
those condemning the round-
about concept for East Venice
Avenue and Jacaranda Boul-
evard, or anyplace else for
that matter.
I'm a transplanted native
New Jerseyan, and we all have
had the same experiences up
there. We called them "traffic
circles," and the name was
apt. Boy, did they ever create
traffic.
Collingswood Circle is
gone; Airport Circle is gone;
Cardiff Circle outside Atlantic
City is gone. And the most
infamous and lethal of them
all, Marlton Circle is at long
last gone.
Why? They didn't work.
They caused back-ups; they
caused fender benders; they
caused injuries to drivers. (No
one would ever think of trying
to walk through or across one
of them.)
In our city of seniors, putting
in a roundabout is akin to
building a bumper-car course.
Of course we won't need traf-
fic lights. We'll get all the illu-
mination we need from the
flashers atop the police patrol
cars responding to yet anoth-
er accident.

Are COPs illegal?


PETER REBMANN
GUEST COLUMNIST


The Florida Supreme
Court dropped a bombshell
on the normally staid world of
government construction fi-
nancing the other day.
By a unanimous vote, it
overturned 27 years of prece-
dent by ruling that Escambia
County couldn't sell bonds to
finance a new four-lane high-
way without voter approval.
In the process, it cast a pall of
doubt over one of the most
popular means of financing
government building projects
in the state.
At issue is the legal status of
quasi-government bonds
known as certificates of par-
ticipation, or COPs for short.
COPs are like revenue
bonds but are not directly
backed by the full faith and
credit of the government
body that issues them. Be-
cause of this, Florida Supreme
Court rulings in 1980 and
1990 said that, unlike general
revenue bonds, they don't
need voter approval.
The new ruling strikes at
the heart of those previous
rulings.
The Florida Constitution
says that when any local gov-
ernment body wants to issue
bonds backed by property
taxes, it has to get voter ap-
proval first.
In 1980 and 1990, the Flor-
ida Supreme Court held that
the Constitution requires vot-
, er approval only if the govern-
ments are going to pledge
property taxing power. If they

wide and thus must accom-
modate two tractor-trailer
trucks side by side. Has any-
one sized this out?.
2. A shopping center is
going in on the southwest
corner of this intersection.
The Jacaranda entrance
seems very close to where a
roundabout exit might come.
Will there be a conflict?
3. The right-of-way rules
for a roundabout are not
clear. If traffic in the circle has
right of way, then east/west
traffic will be blocked for min-
utes at a time at morning and
evening rush hours. If traffic
entering the circle has the
right of way, traffic can be
blocked.
4. Has the pattern of traffic
been modeled to show how
vehicles in the right or left
lanes would move? Note that
if two lanes flow through, say
on Jacaranda, a vehicle in the
right lane would be able to
exit. This would surely slow
traffic and counter the
intended purpose.
5. No signal system other
than a red light will offer any
degree of protection to a
pedestrian or a cyclist. Would
you trust your children to
cross with only a flashing yel-
low light?
6. The cost/benefit analysis
that must have been per-
formed before this round-
about was proposed should
be made available to the pub-
lic for review.
7. Has the county or state
police agencies been consult-
ed?
Hope these points can be


are only pledging to pay with
property taxes, they don't
need voter approval.
Here's what that meant. If
the government pledges tax-
ing power to pay off the.
bonds, then the investors
who buy the bonds can sue in
court to force the government
to raise taxes to pay them
back.
If the government only
promises to pay off the bonds
with property taxes, the in-
vestors can't force the govern-
ment to raise taxes to pay
them back.
The new Supreme Court
ruling says that the Consti-
tution makes no such distinc-
tion between types of bonds.
It ruled that if you plan to pay
back your bonds with proper-
ty taxes, you must get voter
approval first.
COPs are like bonds that
only have a promise to pay
with property taxes. Let's use
a school district that wants to
build a new school to see how
they work.
First, the school board cre-
ates a dummy corporation
with itself as the board of di-
rectors. Next, the board uses
the corporation to issue COPs
and sell them to investors.
Once the COPs have been
sold, the dummy corporation
uses the money to build the
new school. After building the
school, the corporation leases
it to the school district. The
lease payments are used to
pay back the investors who
bought the COPs.
Once the COPs are paid off,
the corporation deeds the
school .to the school district,
which then owns it free and
clear.
Notice that the school dis-
trict didn't pledge its property
taxing power to pay off the
COPs. Therefore, based on the
1980 and 1990 rulings, it did-
n't need voter approval to
issue them.

tricts and local governments
throughout Florida have used
them to raise more than $12
billion. The new Supreme
Court ruling has thrown the
legality of all those COPs into
doubt.
It shouldn't surprise any-
one that those government
bodies are clamoring for the
Supreme Court to clarify the
impact of its ruling on COPs.
They need answers to two
key questions: First, does the
ruling apply to COPs? Second,
if it does apply, does it apply
retroactively or only to future
ones?
Strictly speaking, the new
ruling only applies to a spe-
cial type of bond that Es-
cambia County planned to
use. But the part of the ruling
that overturns the 1980 and
1990 decisions could apply to
COPs.
The Court also said its de-
cision doesn't apply to already
existing bonds. If it rules that
its decision applies to COPs,
will it also exempt existing
ones?
A lot is riding on the
Court's response. For one
thing, many school districts
have been planning to use
COPs to build new schools to
meet the school concurrency
requirements that start next
year.
What will happen if they
need voter approval for them
is anybody's guess. For many
government planners, the im-
pact of the Supreme Court's
ruling on hew schools and a
host of other building pro-
jects is almost too horrible to
contemplate.

Another kind of free lunch


Fair pay. Let's make a deal, city of Venice. Recent comments
concerning working hours for many city employees really have
the attention of many city taxpayers. Getting the taxpayers to
pay for city employees lunch breaks is absurd. The employees
work 8 to 4 and take an hour for lunch. They should get paid for
actual hours worked, 35. If they work 8 to 4 and take a half-hour
for lunch, they should get paid 37 1/2 hours actually worked.
Otherwise, they should work 8 to 5, take an hour for lunch, like
the rest of us do. If they work from 8 to 4:30, they should take a
half-hour for lunch, like the rest of us do. The salary and bene-
fit packages are very generous. This benefit of being paid for
lunch is now outdated. The city manager claims he has the
morale really high for all city employees. We taxpayers think
they should work a full 40 hours and get paid for 40 hours. It
seems fair enough to us. The taxpayers certainly think so.
Again, let's make a deal, city hall.


Waiting. A well-known
organization runs Friday day
trips but only holds around 25
people. Why do the same 10
people get to go every time?
Give someone else a turn. It
doesn't seem fair. Poor orga-
nization. Don't advertise it in
the Gondolier Sun. It just
makes the waiting list double.
Absurd. I'm calling in re-
gard to the Farmer's Market
being moved from the Ga-
zebo. I think it's absolutely
absurd. They should move it
back to where it originally
was..
New blood. My name is
Venice. I have a heart and I
am slowly being murdered by
residents who are cutting off
my blood supply, and without
it I will surely die. I have an
airport that looks like it is
abandoned and populated
only by scrub jays. What a
tragic waste of such a great
asset. I have a shopping area
that is increasing in vacancies
and diminished revenues
from lack of sales and new
development. It's becoming
more of a blighted area every
day. I have an educational
facility that has long been
neglected and a system that
rewards an incompetent ad-


ministration at the expense of
our youth. Our future is at
great risk. I have a residential
community that is showing
its age and lacks any desire to
improve. Longer life does not
equal quality of living. I
understand the concerns
regarding overdevelopment
and agree that guidelines or
controls need to be in place,
but without new blood, I can-
not survive. All I have left to
look forward to is the higher
expense to maintain my de-
crepit condition and the bur-
den of my existence will be in
the form of higher property
taxes for those who choose to
stay. The wake has begun.
No miracles. I want to call
and thank the person who
called and complained about
the Suncoast Humane Society
and St. Francis Cattery. Being
aware of a problem is the first
step in solving one. However,
St. Francis and Suncoast are
humane organizations, not
miracle workers, at least not
all by themselves. They should
be blaming their neighbors
who have the "free kittens"
sign in their yard every six
months, or perhaps their co-
worker who had a baby and
no one had time for the dog,


or the friend who moved into
the no-pets-allowed apart-
ment even though they had
pets. How about blaming the
relative who died and didn't
leave any provision for their
pet? They should be blaming
their community, not the
community humane organi-
zations who are doing the
best they can. St. Francis can
remain a no-kill shelter, refus-
ing to accept more cats that
they can care for; and Sun-
coast has the daunting task of
being forced to euthanize the
pets that are not adopted by
our community because they
can not physically or finan-
cially hold all the pets until
they are adopted. In the
United States, 10 million to 12
million unwanted pets are
euthanized yearly due to
overpopulation dnd irrespon-
sible pet owners. That is at
least 27,473 pets each day in
our country. So before you
blame the few organizations
doing the best they can and
would love to accept all the
needy pets and find them
homes but are unable to do
so, take a look around and see
what you and your communi-
ty can do. Sarasota County
being a no-kill county would
be a wonderful goal for us to
have as a community project.
I say, let's get started today.
Stop selling. Farmers
should stop selling their land
to developers. One day that
land may be needed to feed
the hungry.
Lumped in. My response is
to Jim Clinch. I'm 47 years old,
a registered nurse and have
lived in Venice for 20 years.
I'm against his growth and I
don't feel that I'm elderly or, as
he calls it, old grumpy old
folks. Thanks, Jim, for classify-
ing us all in that group.

Give twirling a whirl at new Venice academy


ROGER BUTTON
BUSINEWS COLUMNIST


The first twirling academy
in Southwest Florida has
opened in Venice.
Instructor and owner Jen-
gee Maga has been been in
the business all her life, start-
ing in Oklahoma and contin-
uing when she moved to
Venice nine years ago.
The 1,500-square-foot stu-
dio, Maga Stars Twirling
Academy, 144 Triple Di-
amond Boulevard, Unit F,
North Venice, is near Tervis
Tumbler's plant.
For nine years Maga has
worked with the Venice High
School Marching Band and


twirlers, organizing the half-
time football game displays.
"We have had so much
interest from other children,
even those who cannot wait
to attend high school, I have
opened my academy to help
everyone," said Maga.
Instruction in baton and
flag twirling for recreational
fun and competition is avail-
able for ages 3 and up, groups
or solo. Classes are from 2 to 8
p.m., Monday through Friday,
with private lessons on the
weekend.
"I have a 25-year-old who
comes in for exercise and fun,
and have had 40-year-olds
who want to keep active," said
Maga.
Five 14- to 17-year-oldVen-
ice girls she has instructed
will be competing in the In-
ternational Twirlmania con-
test in Orlando in 2008. Call
485-2500.

"It's one-stop pet grooming
where you can purchase food,
clothing and accessories for
your pets," said Cheryl Keen-
an, who has reopened Paw-
print Essentials, 1512 U.S. 41


Bypass in the FedEx Kinko's
building next to Starbucks.
In the new location she has
doubled the space and gone
"green" with natural, organic
and holistic foods and sup-
plements in addition to uni-
que couture and accessories
for pets.
New services include
grooming, a soon-to-be-open-

spa and, outside, a huge deck
with chairs. The store is open
seven days a week, and
Keenan is hiring groomers
and retail salespeople. Call
497-6161.
Building and
servicing golf carts
Brian Decko and Jeremy
Quick have relaunched Ven-
ice Golf Carts, 1260 Ogden
Road, Unit F, behind Perkins.
Quick, a commercial paint-
er, worked for the original
company until it moved to
Englewood some time ago.
Decko was a machinist in
Minnesota for 21 years and
came to Venice seven years
ago and he joined a family
member in Spainer Decko
Mobile Home Tie-Downs of


Nokomis and Venice.
"Work has been slow in our
businesses, so we decided to
get this started," said Decko.
Venice Golf Carts sells
accessories and parts and ser-
vices and reconditions carts.
Decko and Quick also build
custom carts, including four-
wheelers for mobile home

Bistro expands
Business has grown much
since Kwan Taylor acquired
the Thai Bistro, 537 E. Venice
Ave. next to Patches restau-
rant.
Two years ago, when she
took it over, it was a small
take-out bistro, but recently
she enlarged the dining room
from 10 to 50 seats.
Doubled in floor space, the
restaurant has been refur-
bished and decorated in typi-
cal Thai style with a bamboo
floor and a decorated Thai-

9244.
Island style for Fridays
Friday are "Island Days"
when Fishman & Associates
employees and owner C.J.
Fishman dress down by wear-
ing island-style shirts.
For the past year this con-
cept of dressing down on Fri-

Window closing on IRA donation option


JULIA STALNAKER
GUEST COLUMNIST ,, /


Donating your IRA assets
to a worthy cause while you
are living is a pretty simple
undertaking. Just take a distri-
bution and donate it to chari-
ty. After all, that's the only way
to do it, right?
For certain taxpayers, it's
not that simple anymore. The
recently enacted Pension Pro-
tection Act of 2006 gives some
taxpayers a more attractive
alternative.
Under the old rules, when
you want to donate IRA ass-
ets, you first withdraw cash or
assets from the IRA. The with-
drawal is taxed as ordinary
income but, if you are over
age 59 1/2, you don't have to
pay the additional 10-percent
early withdrawal penalty.
Then, you could make a char-
itable donation for which you
may be able to take a charita-
ble deduction.
Unfortunately, the income
tax and penalty due on the
withdrawal may not be com-
pletely offset by the charitable
deduction because charitable
deductions are limited. To
claim a charitable deduction,
you must generally be able to
itemize and then the deduc-
tion will be subject to two lim-


iting ceilings.
The first ceiling is based on
the type of charity: 50-percent
charity or 30-percent charity.
The percentage refers to the
maximum percentage of ad-
justed gross income that may
be written off as a charitable
deduction in any one year.
Unused deductions retain
their character and may be
carried forward for five years.
:,Eifty-ipercent charities~,inr-
clude churches, schools, hos-
pitals, endowment founda-
tions, private operating or pass-
through foundations and com-'
munity chests. Thirty-percent
charities include veterans' or-
ganizations, private nonoper-
ating foundations, fraternal
organizations and public
cemeteries. IRS publication
78 provides a listing of all rec-
ognized 50- and 30-percent
charities.
The second ceiling is based
on AGI. When AGI exceeds
$150,500 for 2006 and $75,250
for married taxpayers filing
separately, charitable deduc-
tions are reduced by 2 percent
(for 2006 and 2007; it was 3
percent previously) of the am-
ount by which AGI exceeds
this threshold. There are other
rules that come into play.
The point is, the charitable
deduction will not completely
offset the income tax obliga-
tion on the IRA withdrawal.
PPA the new rules -
allows certain taxpayers to
make a tax-free qualified
charitable donation of their
IRA assets in 2006 and 2007.
IRA owners who have att-
ained age 70 1/2 are permit-
ted to take tax-free IRA with-
drawals of up to $100,000
annually when the amount


withdrawn is donated to a
qualified charity.
The tradeoff? There had to
be one. No charitable deduc-
tion is allowed. That's more
than fair from these donor
taxpayers' point of view as
they come out ahead, espe-
cially when you consider that
the qualified charitable dona-
tion may be used to satisfy
any RMD requirement for the
tax year.
However, there are some
specific criteria that must be
met for the donation to be a
qualified charitable donation.
As previously mentioned, the
qualified charitable donation
must be made after the donor
taxpayer has attained age 70
1/2. The charity must be a
qualified charity. The with-
drawal must be paid directly
to the qualified charity from
the IRA. And this attractive
new law is only in effect for
2006 and 2007.
There are other require-
ments that can't be adequate-
ly addressed in this brief arti-
cle. There are also many fac-
tors to be addressed when
deciding whether to make a
lifetime donation of IRA ass-
ets or non-IRA assets, includ-
ing availability or lack of state
income tax breaks for charita-
ble donations, the fact that
the new law does not apply to
donations from SEP or Simple
IRAs and ability to itemize
deductions.
So, when considering tak-
ing advantage of this new law,
please consult your financial
planner.

cial adviser with Raymond

A mere $6 investment can save your life


HOWARD BEARSE
FIRE SAFETY COLUMNIST


I. would like to take this
opportunity to introduce
myself. I'm Howard Bearse,
and I have been the fire chief
of the Nokomis Volunteer Fire
Department since June 1.
I have 33 years of firefight-
ing experience, and I took this


position after retiring as the
deputy chief of operations
from the North Port Fire and
Rescue District.
With the help of the 40 cer-
tified firefighters, we will be
writing a monthly safety col-
umn. This month's safety
message is "Smoke Detectors
Save Lives."
Smoke detectors are
mounted on the wall or ceil-
ing and automatically sound
a warning when they sense
smoke or other products of
combustion. When people
are warned early enough
about a fire, they can escape
before the fire spreads: Smoke
detector prices start around
$6.
Most fatal fires occur in.
residential buildings between


11 p.m. and 6 a.m. when
occupants are likely sleeping.
More than 90 percent of fire
deaths in buildings occur in
residential dwellings.
Although we tend to feel
safe at home, about two-
thirds of our nation's fire
deaths happen in the victim's
home. The home is where we
are at the greatest risk and
where we must take the most
precautions. 'Most deaths
occur from inhaling smoke or
poisonous gasses, not from
the flames.
A John Hopkins University
Study, funded by the United
States Fire Administration,
found that 75 percent of resi-
dential fire deaths and 84 per-
cent of residential fire injuries
could have been prevented


by smoke detectors.
When choosing a smoke
detector, there are several
things to consider. Think
about which areas of the
house you want to protect,
where fire would be most
dangerous and how many
you may need.
There are two basic types
of smoke detectors: ioniza-
tion detectors and photo-
electric detectors.
The National Fire Alarm
code requires a smoke detec-
tor inside each sleeping area
for new construction, and
you also should have a smoke
detector in the hallway out-
side the bedrooms.
On floors without bed-
rooms, detectors should be
installed in or near living


areas, such as dens, living
rooms or family rooms.
Maintaining your smoke
detectors is easy. Always fol-
low the manufacturer's in-
structions., Most smoke de-
tectors will make a chirping,
popping or beeping sound
when the battery is losing its
charge. When this sound is
heard, install a new battery.
You should check your smoke
detector every month to
ensure it's in good working
order.
The Nokomis Volunteer
Fire Department will help you
with the installation of your
new battery-operated smoke
detector or changing of your
battery. If you have questions,
call us at 488-8855 to set up
an appointment.

projects that draw dollars arid
people to the area.
"We need to preserve the
downtown area. When people
come here, they (drive
through the downtown area)
and arrive at the beach ...
they fall in love. That's what
brings them here. Don't kill
the goose that laid the golden
egg."
Challenger Ernie Zavod-
nyik said the city needs to find
ways to maintain the tourism
industry in the area, but not
by encouraging more growth
and not by attracting more
super stores, like the Wal-
Mart being proposed at the
Renaissance development on
Laurel Road and 1-75.
"What will happen to your
businesses ifWal-Mart comes
in?" he asked.
Zavodnyik said that type of
large-scale project would
bring 'more- problems and
congestion to the area.
"If you are going to do that,
you are going the way of
Naples," he said. "Do you
want tQo. on that conunuousi
rodti e a 'different road?
There is a road less traveled.
We waraeslow change, not
revolutionary change."
Next up were Sue Lang and
Jim Woods, vying for seat no.
5. (Candidate Gary Budway,
also running for the seat, was
unable to attend the forum.)
Lang said her 30 years in
management for the city of
Hartford, Conn., where she
supervised an affordable
housing program, gave her
intimate knowledge of build-
ing code and development
issues.
In essence, she said, "I was
a developer."
Lang said she supports a
downtown revitalization pro-
gram, where small business
owners could apply for facade
improvement or energy bill
assistance to retrofit older
buildings through low-inter-
est loans, or credit programs
to help small businesses.
She also said downtown
retail businesses and cafes
should stay open more eve-
nings to promote downtown
Venice.


If they did that, it would
"have a great impact" and
draw tourists and others
"who want to visit downtown
historic areas."
Jim Woods said his experi-
ence as a facilities director at
Hillsborough Community
College; campus executive
officer at Manatee Commun-
ity College-Venice, where
enrollment grew 46 percent
over four years during his
tenure; and distribution of
$27 million throughout the
area when The Venice Hos-
pital Foundation was dis-
banded, are proof he has
experience in building issues
and. helping communities
thrive.
Hotel rooms
When the issue of hotel
rooms came up, discussion
centered around Mike Miller's
Tra Ponti on the Waterfront
project, proposed to create
145 condo units, each with a
rentable attached unit.
Hammett said the project,
which is slated for an upcom-
ing council works hop,
"shouldn't have been higher
than the (Venice Avenue)
bridge."
Opponent Ed Martin call-
ed for lower height on the
project. He said the zoning.
was flawed from the begin-
ning, and the city didn't make
clear what it wanted.
In addition, the project left
many unanswered questions,
he said, like whether it should
be licensed as a hotel.
Zavodnyik said he sup-
ported Harvey Wasserman's
resort near the airport, and
possibly the Tra Ponti project
if it's scaled back.

It's not a fight, just an animated discussion among Venice MainStreet
members and guests following a Venice City Council race forum
Wednesday.


Willson previously offered
what he called a compromise
by reducing the height oftwo !
of the five Tra Ponti buildings
to five stories. Later he voted
to hold a workshop the pro-
ject. At the next council meet-
ing on Oct. 23 he plans rein-
troduce a previous motion to
deny the Tra Ponti project,
and send it back to the draw-
ing board.
The current plan for coun-
cil to hold a workshop under
quasi-judicial rules, he said,
would be too cumbersome
and hinder creative alterna-
tives that may be available.
"I just don't, see how it
would work," Willson said.
But he supports the CMU


zoning district and the
broader authority it gives to
council.
"We can say no. We did say
no," he said. "The CMU al-
lows us to do that. Don't
blame the CMU."
Lang has testified against
the Tra Ponti project for
exceeding the 45-foot height
limit and criticized the plan-
ning commission and city
council for granting special
exceptions to height limits on
a regular basis.
Woods, who first voted for
the Tra Ponti project, ,then
agreed with council to hold a
workshop on it,, said "it's
important to move forward
on Tra Ponti posthaste" to

send investors interested in
Venice a positive message.
"We need to plan appro-
priately, but soon," he said.
Parking
Candidates support more
downtown parking, but dif-
fered on how to accomplish
it.
Hammett admitted that
the current practice of Main-
Street employee parking be-
hind the First Baptist Church
just doesn't solve the prob-
lem.
"It's an- interesting task,"
Hammett said. "I don't think
it will be easily solved,."
He has since indicated it's
*possible that excess 1-cent
sales tax revenue could go
toward the project.
Martin said he was disap-
pointed the city did not iden-
tify a parking lot or parking
garage in the 15-year, 1-cent
sales surtax project list.
Referring to the Tra Ponti
property and to surrounding
properties that are for sale,
Zavodriyik said "something
ought to* be available over
there" for parking on U.S. 41
Business.
Lang said the city could
take a more proactive stance
in making traffic improve-
ments.
She said there is a plan to
move the Venice Post Office to
Jacaranda.
"We should have a plan for
that property," Lang said.
It was previously suggested
as a potential location for a
parking garage, possibly over
retail shops.

Cox, Revels Sarasota County champions


BY TRIPP MILLER
SPORTS EDITOR

-When the polar ice caps
melt, only the swimmers sur-
vive. When the county cham-
pionships come around, only
the fastest ones do.
Venice High School had
two fast ones Wednesday at
the Sarasota County High
School Swimming Champ-
ionships at the Selby Aquatic
Center. Mark Cox and Tyler
Revels combined to win three
events. Cox, last year's state
champion in the 100-yard
butterfly, won that event with
a time of 00:53.41. He also
won the 200-yard freestyle
with a time of 1:48.11. Revels
added to the list of Venice
championships with a win in
the 100-yard breast stroke. He
defeated Riverview High
School's Jonathan Everhart by
just more than two one-hun-
dredths of a second with a
time of 1:02.96. Revels also
came in a close second in the
200-yard individual medley
with a time of 2:05.82.
As a team, the Indians
placed second behind River-
view in combined boys and.
girls scoring. Cardinal Moon-
ey High School rounded out
the top three. In the girls
standings, Venice took third
behind first-place Riverview
and second-place Sarasota
High School. The boys fin-
ished fourth behind first-
place Riverview, second-
place Cardinal Mooney and
third-place North Port High


School.
Riverview distanced itelf
from the competition by win-
ning five of the six relay
events, each of which counts
double toward team points.
Venice came in a close sec-
ond three of those times.
Timothy Tudor, Revels, Cox
and Chip Whittemore were
less than three seconds be-
hind the Rams in the boys
200-yard medley relay. The
same group of Indians was
even closer to first-place
Riverview in the boys 200-
yard free relay. Jessica Wright,
Melinda Spinella, Tobie
Daniels and Tori Kontor were
just four seconds behind the
Rams in the girls 200-yard
free relay.
Cox and Revels were not
the only notable Venice
swimmers in the county
championships. The Indians
also had seven swimmers in
the top five of various events.
Nikki Gutzmann finished
fourth (2:27.55) and Daniels
finished fifth (2:32.48) in the
girls 200-yard individual
medley. Jessica Wright took
fourth (00:27.29) in the girls
50-yard freestyle. Gutzman
came in third (1:05.15) in the
girls 100-yard butterfly and
Kontor came in third
(00:37.47) in the girls 100-
yard freestyle. Tudor finished
fifth (00:54.84) in the boys 100-
yard freestyle and Whittemore
finished fourth in the boys 500-
yard freestyle. Finally, Spinella,
Gutzmann, Kontor and Katie
Kramer took fourth in the


girls 400-yard freestyle relay.

Venice High School's Tyler Revels finishes the second leg of the boys 200 medley relay as Mark Cox pre-
pares to leave the board while Chip Whittemore waits behind Cox to anchor the relay. Venice would finish
second in this event, but Revels and Cox would go on to win three others.


Venice volleyball team

rebounds, downs Aquinas


BYTRIPP MILLER
SPORTS EDITOR


Now the Venice High Sc-
hool volleyball team is really a
comeback team.
The Indians have seen it
that way all season, but they
never had to come back after
a loss until they dropped two
games at the Tampa Bay In-
vitational. After falling to Bish-
opVerot High School in the first
game of the tournament and
then to. Timber Creek High
School in the silver bracket
final, Venice has come back.
The Indians first took out
their frustrations on. South-
east High School Tuesday
night. Venice beat the Semin-
oles in three games 25-7,25-8,
25-15 while playing just about
every player on the roster.
Sophomore Jillian Allen led
the Indians with 13 kills, fol-
lowed by fellow-sophomore
Whitney Steranko with six.
"I think we learned from
our losses," Head Coach Brian
Wheatley said. 'Anytime you
win or lose you want to learn."
Venice moves to 6-0 in the
district with the win, which
means the Indians will be
guaranteed the No. 1 seed in
the upcoming district tourna-
ment.
Even with the last of the
district games out of the way
early in the week, the real test
had yet to be taken. Venice
took to the road Wednesday
to face St. Thomas Aquinas
High School in Fort Lauder-
dale.
Venice beat the Raiders 18-
25, 25-23, 15-25, 25-23, 15-10.
It was only the fourth Aquinas
loss their second to the In-
dians.
"The last four times we've
played Aquinas the match has
either gone four or five
games," Wheatley said. "It's
always just a heated rivalry."
This match was no differ-
ent. Venice found itself trail-
ing two games to one after
getting outclassed in the first
and third games by a com-
bined deficit of 17 points.
Then the comeback mentali-
ty kicked in. Venice won an-
other close one in game four
25-23 before falling behind 7-
3 in the tiebreaker game.


Senior Casie Richards
sparked the final comeback in
game five with three kills and
a key block. Venice finished
the match on an 8-3 run to go
on to win the tiebreaker 15-
10. The win was the first ever
for the Indians in the Aquinas
gym.
"Last night we learned that
you can't take any games off,"
Wheatley said. "We took two
games off last night and they
smoked us. We know that if we
want to do something down
the road, this team can't afford
to take games off. We can't
afford to take points off so every
play has got to matter."
Senior Kaylee Ream re-
corded 20 kills in the match,
vaulting herself into the top-
10 in school history for most
kills in a match. Senior Casey
Taylor, who is already tied for
fourth in the books for most
kills in a match with 25
against Evangelical Christian
School, had 15 against Aqu-
inas. Senior Danielle Witte
finished the evening with 32
digs, followed by senior Julie
Howlett with 17. Senior Nickie
Halbert added another 56
assists to her total of more
than 1,500.
Venice will need more
record-worthy performances
down the stretch. The Indians
face three of Florida's top-20
teams in Buchholz High Sc-
hool, Berkeley Preparatory
School and Leon High School
next week to close out the re-
gular season. Buchholz is first,
with the match scheduled for
7 p.m. Tuesday. The last time
these two teams played was in
the final match of the Gator
Town Invitational at Buch-
holz. Venice fell behind two
games to none, only to rally to
win the match and the tour-
nament in front of the
Bobcats' home crowd. Wheat-
ley said Buchholz may be the
best regular-season volleyball
team ever to face Venice in the
teepee.
"If people want to come
out and watch good volley-
ball, they've got four kids that
are Division-1 [caliber play-
ers] with their big-hitter going
to North Carolina," he said.

Venice volleyball alum to, play in Tampa


BY TRIPP MILLER
SPORTS EDITOR


One of Venice High Sc-
hool's three first-team all-
state state selections from
2004 will be returning to the
state of Florida tonight.
Lisa Hough and the West
Virginia University Moun-
taineers take on the Uni-
versity of South Florida Bulls
in Tampa tonight at 7 p.m. in
the Sun Dome.
Hough, now a junior, was
named West Virginia Uni-
versity's athlete of the week
for her performances against
Seton Hall, Villanova and


Robert Morris last week. In
those three games, the Venice
native recorded 29 kills while
maintaining a .411 hitting
percentage. She also had four
service aces and five digs.
In the match with Seton
Hall, Hough posted a career-
high 11 assisted blocks, giving
her 26 total blocks. On the
season, the 6-foot middle
blocker has 122 kills, 18 ser-
vice aces and 66 blocks.
During her career at Venice
High School, Hough made
her way into the record books
six separate ways. She is No. 2
in the record books for career
kills with 789 from 2001 to


2004. She is No. 2 and No. 3 for
most blocks in a season with
142 in 2003 and 125 in 2004.
She is No. 5 and No. 11 on the
list for most kills in a season
with 318 in 2004 and 249 in
2003. Finally, she is No. 7 on
the list for most kills in a sin-
gle match with 22 kills against
Berkeley Preparatory School:
in 2004.
"She was one of my out-
standing captains of all time,"
Venice Head Coach Brian
Wheatley said. "She was a kid
that when I looked away she

Golfers get ready for districts


BY TRIPP MILLER
SPORTS EDITOR

In golf, your round only
matters if somebody's watch-
ing. If you hit a hole in one,
you better hope somebody
saw it.
Both the boys and girls golf
teams at Venice High School
start their district tourna-
ments Monday, and that's
when people start watching.
The boys are 15-3-3 on the
season, but it doesn't matter.
If they lose in'districts then it's
all over. The girls have lost 6
matches this season but if it
all comes together at the right
time, they could end up dis-
trict champions.
"I think our three and four
players, if they have a solid
round then we'll have a pretty
good chance," girls coach
Wayne Robertson said.
Casey Kennedy and Crystal
Smith have been shooting in
the 30s fairly consistently all
season so there is little room
for improvement there. If the
Indians can shave off a few
strokes here and there with
their other players, they could
be in good shape.
Robertson said this past
week has been one of the
girls' better weeks. They won
a tri-match with Sarasota
High School- and Cardinal
Mooney High School by 50
strokes Tuesday. They lost
their match Thursday when


Kennedy was out of town vis-
iting a college. The good news
is that some of their other
golfers have been picking up
the slack.
"This has been Seirra's best
week so far," he said of No. 3
golfer Seirra Rhodus. "She has
been working hard. I've been
trying to convince her that
she can reach that 40s mark,
and she's finally getting down
there."
Rhodus shot a 47 Thursday
and a season-best 43 Tuesday.
Gina Cassan, the No. 4 golfer
on the team, has shown signs
of brilliance. She has been lin-
gering in the 50s for the last
three matches, but she is
capable of better. Her career
best is a 40 that she shot early
in the season at the Manatee
County Golf Course. For-
tunately for her, districts will
be held there Monday at
noon. If Cassan can have
another good round and
Rhodus can continue to
improve, look for the Indians
to make a serious run at the
district title.
"We know what we can do,
we just have to show up and
perform," Robertson said.
As for the boys, the district
round is theirs to lose. They
have beaten every team in the
district at least once, and they
have six golfers capable of
shooting in the 30s or at least
the low 40s.
Billy Stevens is playing his


"This has been Seirra's best week so far. She
has been working hard. I've been trying to
convince her that she can reach that 40s mark
and she's finally getting down there."
-Venice High School girls coach Wayne
Robertson talking about No.,3 golfer Seirra


Rhodus


best golf of the season right
now. After losing his spot in
the varsity rotation for a few
matches midway through the
season, he has led the Indians
in the past three matches,
shooting a 39 at Heritage
Oaks Country Club, a 37 at
Heron Creek Country Club
and a 34 at Port Charlotte
Country Club.
But Stevens isn't the only
one hitting his stride. The
Indians are on a tear, beating
Riverview High School, North
Port High School and Port
Charlotte High School this
week by a combined 69
strokes.
Against Riverview, Stevens
and Timmy Garofalo both
shot in the 30s, with the rest of
their teammates each shoot-
ing an even 40. Tuesday the
Indians had three in the 30s
against North Port: Stevens,
Erick Bennett and Eric


Dobitsch. Wednesday they;
really turned it up on Port
Charlotte, with Stevens, Ben-
nett, David Panfil and Spen-
cer Dunford all in the 30s and
Garofalo and Dobitsch each
with 40. Nobody shot higher
than a 42 all week.
"We've built up some con-
fidence going into districts,"
boys coach Marty Tarala said.
"So that's good."
The boys will start districts
Monday at 9 a.m. at Kingsway
Country Club. They will be
matched up with Sarasota
High School and Riverview
High School, two of just three
teams that have beaten
Venice all year.
If the boys can keep up the
way they have been playing,
both the boys and girls teams
should have a good chance at
winning the district.

he third Monday of every month, 2-4 p.m.,
the Venice Public Library becomes a meet-
ing place for women who travel or
would like to travel if they knew a little bit
more about where to go and how to get
there on their own or with a friend or family member.
Many a woman is intimidated by the challenge of trav-
eling to an unfamiliar destination. Most of us in this coun-
try have done most of our traveling in the family automo-
bile and have little know-how about
public conveyances, tours, cruises and
how to get the most from them.
That is what the monthly Monday
meetings are all about, that and women
who already travel who pass along tips .
on places or travel packages and
providers worth looking into to other
women who travel.

Dominica also gave one of the best reasons I have
heard as to why the use of a travel agent is better than
booking your own overseas trip on the Internet: If you lose
your passport or have any other difficulty in reentering the
United States, a travel agency is experienced and better
equipped to solve this or any other travel problem that
arises. He emphasized that getting in to the United States
is far more difficult than leaving.
Experienced travelers also advised the use of a limo
service to Tampa International Airport. At around $40 one
way, it sounds expensive but if you drive, you pay $13 to
$17 a day for remote parking plus a dp to the person who

And now


... The News from Ecineville


BY TED RANK
STAFF ESCRITOR

Hang on to your, sanity,
ladies and gentlemen. It's
time for News from Ecine-
ville.
As we .reported in the last
edition, people are claiming
to see a ghost.
The ghost, people claim,
is the ghost of Bitsy that
cute little poodle dog the size
of a rat.
You may recall Bitsy was
assassinated by a clowder of
cats strike team after the


Cats Intelligence Agency
(CIA) had what it claimed
was definitive proof that
Bitsy was killing kittens. The
attack, led by CIA Col. Bub-
ba, a tiger cat, occurred dur-
ing the Ecineville Festival
from Hell.
"I remember seeing Bit-
sy's picture in the Ecineville
Sun. I know that was the
ghost of Bitsy that I saw in
the chess room of the
Ecineville Public Library on
Elwell Avenue," said Dick
Rich Richards III.
Richards' alleged encoun-


ter with Bitsy the ghost was
two weeks ago; since then
more than 100 people have
come forward reporting they
have seen Bitsy the ghost.
In one of the stranger
reports, Ellen Dagenerator
claims to haveseen Bitsy the
ghost rise out of the sand at
Caspertheghost Beach.
That will give you night-
mares.
In addition to individuals
claiming to have seen Bitsy
the ghost, there was an
alleged mass sighting this
past Tuesday.


More than 55 Maroon Hat
Ladies were leaving Melea-
ger's Restaurant when they
claim they saw Bitsy the
ghost rise out from the roof
of the Whacked Out Knick
Knacks Shoppe and float off
toward the bay.
"He was wearing a cute
baby-blue hat and he was
whimpering," said Ginna
Spires.
"It was not just random
whimpering though Bitsy
was whimpering the 'Battle
Hymn of the Republic.' I
heard it clear as day," said


Linda Welts.
Tuesday nights are two-
for-one Long Island iced tea
nights at Meleager's.
Ghost hunters from 32
states and 14 countries have
descended on Ecineville.
As soon as the ghost
hunters arrived yesterday,
the sightings of Bitsy the
ghost climbed dramatically
- 31 sightings yesterday.
Ecineville Police Depart-
ment's Animals Out of
Control Officer Timmy "Mad
Dog" Breanowski has been
put on EPD "Red Alert" in the


event someone comers Bitsy
the ghost.
"It's against the law to let
your ghost dog float around
without a leash," said Brean-
owski.
Well, this is Ted "I'm a
reporter, I'm a reporter"
Rank reporting. I'll see you
next issue with more news
from Ecineville. Until then,
remember, if you spot Bitsy,
call the authorities and keep
your cats indoors here in
Ecineville.

Commissioner Joe


Barbetta speaks


I ELLEN HILLSTROM
COLUMNIST


The South Venice Civic
Association has a very distin-
guished guest who will speak
to our members and guests
next Monday, Oct. 15, 7 p.m.
at the South Venice Commun-
ity Center, 720 Alligator Drive.
We look forward to hear
what Mr. Barbetta has to say
about our South Venice com-
munity in light of the reason-
ing behind the property taxes
and insurance increases, the
current housing slump and
his outlook on the future of
our county.
Sarasota County Commis-
sioner Joe Barbetta is an attor-
ney who is admitted to the
NewYork and Florida Bar and
also admitted to practice
before the U.S. Supreme.
Court. He was elected in 2006
and Monday makes this his
first speaking appearance
before our group.
His experience and affilia-
tions are impressive: former
member and chair of the
Sarasota County Planning
Commission for 14 years; the
Urban Land Institute, Alliance
for Historic Preservation,
Sierra Club, Nature Conser-
vancy, Environmental Law
Institute; and a member of
the Congress on New Ur-
banism, to name a few. I was
pleased to.note his participa-
tion in Habitat for Humanity
as well
Born in upistate New York
in 1946, Mr. Barbetta graduat-

ed from LaSalle Military In-
stitute in Troy, N.Y. He re-
ceived his bachelor of science
degree from Fordham Univer-
sity and his law degree from
Union University-Albany Law
School.
For 13 years he practiced
law in Clifton Park, N.Y, in real
estate development, plan-
ning, zoning and land use. He
moved to Sarasota in 1983,
and resides with his wife,
Mary, and son, Sean. Their
daughter and grandson reside
in Atlanta.
With the Nov. 6 special ref-
erendum coming up, Mari-
anne Reilly, Sarasota County
Planning Commission, will
take the podium to outline
the benefits of continuing the
1-cent sales surtax as well as
explain the super majority
vote on land development
issues.
I need to be better in-
formed. My observation re-
garding the 1-cent sales tax
extension is that it's good
because tourists and other
nonproperty owners help pay
for infrastructure costs that
otherwise could end up in my
property tax bill.
As far as a super majority
vote on land use density, there
are only five county commis-
sioners, and if it. takes four to
vote up or down on a land use
decision, doesn't that give
more power to two at the
expense of a majority vote?
As is our custom, the pub-
lic is invited to attend and to
stay for our short business
meeting and refreshments
afterward:
Ellen Hillstrom is the
South Venice Civic
Association development
director.

FRIDAY
OCT. 12, 2007


BY SAM HODGES
THE DALLAS
MORNING NEWS

Lee Strobel's book "The
Case for Christ" has sold
nearly 3.5 million copies. An
atheist-turned-evangelical
with a background in law
and journalism, he's written
several other best-sellers.
He's discussing his new book,
"The Case for the Real Jesus."
Strobel spoke by phone
recently-Here are excerpts:
Q: You've written "The Case for
Christ," "The Case for Faith," "The
Case for a Creator," "The Case for
Christmas." Why one more "case"
book?
A: When I wrote "The Case
for Christ," about 10 years
ago, I described the evidence
I found convincing as an
atheist that Jesus is the
unique son of God. Since
that time, there's been a pro-
liferation of attacks on the
church's traditional teachings
on Jesus. I wanted to write a
book that addressed these,
and I wanted to use the same
approach.
Q: In the new book, you note six
challenges to Jesus' identity.Which
is most serious?
A: Any time there's an
attack on the resurrection
itself, this has serious impli-


cations. This is the linchpin
of the Christian faith. When
we see new books by atheists
and Muslims, and even re-
cent speeches by Hindus, at-
tacking the belief that Jesus
died and rose from the dead,
I think those have to be taken
seriously.
Q: You did in-depth interviews
with six scholars, and one was
Daniel B. Wallace of Dallas Theo-
logical Seminary. Why Wallace?
A: Dr. Wallace is a highly
respected scholar in kind
of a narrow field, which is
called textual criticism.
Another scholar in this area,
Bart D. Ehrman, wrote a
book called "Misquoting
Jesus," which has damaged
the faith of a lot of people by
questioning the fidelity with
which the New Testament
has been passed along
through time. So I chose Dr.
Wallace because of his
sterling credentials in this ;
area. He does a great job of
instilling confidence that the
New Testament manuscripts
we have are essentially accu-
rate.
Q:You let Dr.Wallace critique Dr.
Ehrman, but you don't give Dr.
Ehrman a chance to answer back.
A: There's no mystery
about the claims of Dr.
Ehrman. And frankly much


of what he wrote is not in
dispute. It's how those facts
are interpreted. My approach
has been to take a variety of
critiques (to Christianity),
from a variety of sources, to
distill them and seek scholars
who can provide another
side of the story.
Q: Southern Baptists had a kind
of civil war in recent decades, and
the group that insisted on biblical
inerrancy won control of the de-
nomination over those who said
that one can believe the Bible with-
out insisting every word is literally
true. After all of your study, which
side are you on?
A: Personally, I believe in
the inerrancy of Scripture.
When I present the claims of
Christ to skeptics or seekers, I
quite readily set aside the
issue of inerrancy or infalli-
bility. I don't think inerrancy
is essential in terms of help-
ing reach seekers and skep-
tics.
Q: Any doubts since your con-
version in 1981 ?
A: I'm not immune from
doubt, but it's not something
I get plagued with. I think
. partially that's because I
came to faith after thorough-
ly investigating the historical
basis for Christianity and
walked away entirely per-
suaded of Jesus' identity.

Web links worshipers with Holy Land


Author Lee Strobel


writes another 'Case'


FROM NAPSA

A new Web site is credited
with breaking down many
practical obstacles time,
cost of travel, concerns about
security to visiting one of
the holiest churches in the
world.
It gives millions of Chris-
tians the opportunity to pray,
light their own candles and
receive a personal blessing at
the famed Annunciation
Church in Nazareth, via the
Internet.
Worshipers place a prayer
request through the site and
choose a time for the service
to take place. At the designat-
ed time, a priest from the
Annunciation Church in the
Holy Land lights a candle and
offers a personal prayer on
the user's behalf. The site,
called Mirezo ("my prayer" in
Spanish), then lets worshipers
watch the live ceremony in
real time over the Web at
www.mirezo.com.
An e-mailable version of
the ceremony can also be
saved and then shared with
friends and family. Funds
raised will be donated to the
church as well as to local
Christian communities.
The. ritual use of candles
has long played an integral
role in Christianity, and it is
considered especially benefi-
cial to light candles at the


holiest churches.
A timely beginning
The site was officially
launched during the Feast of
the Annunciation, the Chris-
tian holiday celebrating the
revelation that the Virgin
Mary would conceive Jesus.
The Church of the An-
nunciation in Nazareth is the


site where, according to tradi-
tion, the Virgin Mary went
daily to draw water, as well as
the place where her immacu-
late pregnancy was first
revealed to her by the angel
Gabriel. Scholars say that in
many respects, the very
essence of Christianity was

STORY AND PHOTOS prayer learned for the special occasion.
COURTESY OF EPIPHANY


CATHEDRAL SCHOOL

Students in Jackie Stuart's kinder-
garten class at Epiphany Cathedral
School celebrated the Feast of the
Guardian Angels Oct. 2. This feast day
celebrates the belief that an angel pro-
tects children and adults from dangers
real and imagined.
In celebration, the students hand-
crafted their own sparkling gold halos
out of paper plate rims while they feast-
ed on tasty angel food cake. Each child
had a paper angel complete with a


'Guardian Angel Prayer'
Angel of God, my guardian dear
to whom God's love commits me here,
ever this day be at my side
to light, to guard, to rule and guide.
Amen
On the front of the paper angel was a
note from the child's guardian angel
that read:
Dear Child of God,
Today I am celebrating my feast day.
I wanted to share with you a special
dessert; it is, of course, angel food cake.


I love watching over you and lighting
your path.
Continue to stay close to our heav-
enly Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit.
Remember that I am with you all the
time.
I will always help you.
With much love and a watchful eye,
Your Guardian Angel
The concept of a guardian angel
assigned to guide and nurture each hu-
man being is a development of Cath-
olic doctrine and piety based on scrip-
ture.

Realtors in the Ven-
ice office are show-
casing neighborhoods in a
cooperative open house from
11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday,
Oct. 6.
A neighborhood is part of
the most important rule of
real estate location is


everything. Some prefer city
neighborhoods. Others want
the rural life. Some want to
live in a gated community.
Some do not. In the greater
Venice area, there is some-
thing for everyone.
Home prices range from
under $200,000 to more than
$800,000 for homes in neigh-
borhoods'such as Mission
Lakes, Venice island's historic
area, the Lakes of Jacaranda,


Waterford, Chestnut Creek,
Venice Golf & Country Club
and the Plantation Golf &
Country Club areas.
A representative sampling
of the 19 featured homes are
shown here.
Maps and listings with
more details can be picked
up at the Venice office, 110.N.
Nokomis Ave., Venice. .

CAR TALK: CLICK & CLACK
Under-inflation more dangerous than over-inflation: Is there any way
the tire pressure can increase without manually filling the tire? I was
driving from Flagstaff, Ariz., to Tucson, and 30 minutes from Tucson,
the tread blew off the front driver's side tire. WHEELS I P4


Vehicle of the Week: The virtually all-new 2008 CTS is a terrific car, an excellent successor to the very
good first-generation CTS that re-established Cadillac as a luxury brand to be reckoned with.
