Former city officials debate


city charter amendments

Mayors have differing opinions


FRIDAY, January 4, 2008

DAYTONA BEACH Paul
Carpenella holds court at the
Friday morning "multi-parti-
san coffee klatsch" at his
North Beach Street restau-
rant, Chez Paul, with one
hand waving in the air and
the other scribbling notes
with a No. 2 pencil.
Though his oft-refilled cof-
fee mug has attitude "If I
want your opinion, I'll give it
to you," it states, the former
Daytona Beach mayor and


his group of political pundits
and novices alike are really
more about open discus-
sion.
As the banter turned more
to the pros and cons of city
charter review, Mr.
Carpenella invited represen-
tatives of political action
committee, Striving Towards
a New Daytona, to speak.
STAND, represented by
founders Greg Gimbert and
Ron Bynum, is circulating
petitions for six city charter
amendments that reduce
government spending by


outsourcing some city staff,
reforming election financing
and controlling the utility,
budgeting and land-use
policies of the city.
STAND had more than
3,000 signed petitions going
into the holidays.
"I'm not sold on it; I'm sold
on the right of people to peti-
tion the government for
changes," said Mr. Carpenel-
la, the city's mayor from
1993-95. "The only way to
open discussion is to get this
on the ballot."

HOLLY HILL Of the
24 students in Melinda
Tyler's gifted eighth-grade
English class at Holly Hill
Middle School, three did-
n't celebrate Christmas
due to tragedies. Five had
two parents out of work.
Two had parents who
have died.
Most of the students
and their families had to
suffice with smaller holi-
days than usual because
of tightening budgets.
"I can't imagine a
Christmas like that in my
house," said Ms. Tyler, a
43-year-old mother of
four. "But (the students)
do have something to
look forward to."
If all goes as planned,
these 24 students will be
the first to use Ms. Tyler's
program,. Educational
Travel Foundation for
Underprivileged Stu-
dents, to visit Washing-
ton, D.C. and surrounding
areas for a week in July.
In her 11th year at
HHMS, Ms. Tyler came up
with the idea for the trip
after reading "Teach Like
Your Hair's on Fire," an
inspirational book by
inner-city Los Angeles
teacher Rafe Esquith,.this
summer.
When she surveyed her
students and found out 16
of them had never flown

plan rally

to support

CRA

Event to educate
general public,
organizers say

BY BETHANY CHAMBERS
Staff writer
HOLLY HILL With a new
baby in the family, Michael Hill
has been thinking a lot about
life in Holly Hill.
The 35-year-old son of
natives Richard and Barbara
Hill grew up in the city around
the family business, Hill's-
Quality Plumbing.
Thanks to the community
redevelopment area's grant
program, the area surrounding
Hill's on Ridgewood Avenue
has improved over the years,
Mr. Hill said.
Though Mr. Hill has since
moved to Ormond Beach and
runs his own Holly Hill busi-
ness, Hill Family Chiropractic,
outside the CRA, Mr. Hill said
he believes the CRA is the best
way to serve the city's long-
term interests.
As a show of support for the
CRA, Mr. Hill and other busi-
ness owners will hold a pro-
CRA rally from 11:30 a.m. to 2
p.m. Saturday, Jan. 5 at Holly-
land Park.
Although the event will
include a band and cook-out,
its main purpose is to educate
people about the importance
of the CRA before the city com-
mission meets Jan. 8 to review
the master plan.
The commission will discuss

VOLUSIA COUNTY -
For four years, Joyce
Downs and her husband,
Robert, were thousands of
miles apart, Robert work-
ing and living in Daytona
Beach and Joyce staying in
Las Vegas with their daugh-
ter, Louise, as she finished
high school.
Just after Louise gradu-
ated, the Downs women
moved to Daytona Beach
June 15 for a blissful
reunion at their new


beachside home.
Five days later, every-
thing would change
"My daughter was
screaming, 'Mom! Mom!'
and I thought it was really
strange," Mrs. Downs
recalls. "I get up and I see
my husband heaped at the
door to the backyard."
Mr. Downs had suffered
a massive stroke, a brain
hemorrhage Mrs. Downs
believes was brought on by
a "very stressful" job in
sales.
Just four days shy of his
50th birthday, Mr. Downs


was hospitalized. Ulti-
mately, he would be con-
fined to a wheelchair and
to living in a nursing home.
He could not walk, and
he could not access their
hilltop home, surrounded
by steps.
"My husband would be
at a facility indefinitely. We
didn't have any money, and
I had just started working,"
Mrs. Downs said. "I don't
think we could have afford-
ed to go anywhere."
Dejected, Mrs. Downs

Rally
From page Al
removing portions of the
master plan regarding Hol-
lyland Park development,
and may discuss commis-
sioners Mark Reed and Liz
Towsley's proposals to dis-
solve the CRA.
"There hasn't been a city
yet that received CRA funds
for improvement that
turned down the project,"
said Mr. Hill, incoming
Chamber of Commerce
president. "This would be a
first as far as I know. Every
place with a CRA has seen
marked improvement."
While the Chamber of
Commerce is not officially
involved in rally planning,
executive director Rose
Schuhmacher said she sup-
ports the event.
Much of the concern has
been generated by lurid
details of CRA misappropri-
ation in other cities, Ms.
Schuhmacher said.
"I don't care what Daytona
does with its CRA. I don't
care what Ormond does
with its CRA. You can't judge
everyone by one," Ms.
Schuhmacher said.
If the CRA is dissolved, the
city could lose thousands of
dollars in grants that have
helped 142 businesses and
homeowners, she said.
Altogether, 257 home-
owners are still eligible for
grants.
"Do you want $800,000 to
stay here," she asked, "or to
go back to DeLand, and
then spread around to
everybody else?"
Chamber of Commerce
member Sharon Mitterholz-
er, a senior sales producer at
Allstate Insurance, said
businesses will hand out
fliers on CRA information,
along with 200 pro-CRA
yard signs and 100 T-shirts.
They also will collect sig-
natures on a petition to
hand the commission at the
Jan. 8 meeting. They hope to
collect 500 names, Ms. Mit-
terholzer said.
Ms. Mitterholzer said the
city should keep the CRA
largely to retain the five
police officers and two
patrol cars that have helped
reduce transients and pros-
titution on U.S. 1.
"The goal is to educate
and get citizens involved
and let them know what the
CRA does for us," she said.
"It's not about the persons


ident, though he hopes it is
more, about public dis-
course than "how to become
a millionaire in one meet-
ing," he said.
"I think that if the CRA ...
was about making an imme-
diate impact with long-
range goals, it might be a
good deal," he said, "but
right now (it's about)
endowing."
Commissioner Rick Glass
said he, too, would like to
learn more from the event.
"I'm hoping this will give
(everyone) different per-
spectives," he said. "(People
are) getting misinformation
and it's disheartening."

Stand
From page Al


Mr. Carpenella said he
found some problems with
the land-use controls that
would put most comprehen-
sive plan changes on a ballot,
because the city "shouldn't go
to people on everything."
Still, there were some
things he thought made
sense "right off the bat."
Government leaders have
"lost their sense of judgment
and show no restraint," he
said.
"Government has taken on
too many responsibilities,"
he said. "Part of it is ego, and
part of it is trying to be every-
thing to everybody."
At the very least, the
amendments show that
"everybody is not happy"
with what government is
doing, he added.
While Mr. Carpenella was
convinced to sign the STAND
petitions, other former city
leaders have come out
against them.
Former mayor Larry Kelly,
who served from 1974-1993,
said he did not believe the
petition process was the right
way to address grievances
with government.
"Get yourself involved in
the city and run for public
office," he said.
Mr. Kelly said he ran for
commission in 1971 even
though "everybody said I did-


n't have a chance."
Both Mr. Bynum and Mr.
Gimbert said they have no
plans to run for office.
Personally, Mr. Kelly said
he believes "the city is in a
plus-plus situation" now
thanks to a "personable,
great, smart businessman" in
Mayor Glenn Ritchey and
"very professional" city man-
ager in James Chisholm.
In the past, Mr. Kelly served
on a city charter review
board, which he would not
be opposed to doing again.
He would not, however, sup-
port the six amendments
STAND proposes.
"(Mr. Bynum) can get
appointed to that," Mr. Kelly
suggested. "Now, will he win
them over to his petition? No.
I absolutely do not think they
could pass it.
"As a former mayor with a
love of Daytona Beach, I
would campaign against
them," Mr. Kelly said. "It's not
the right approach to charter
review."
Having been on the inside,
Mr. Kelly said he refrains
from criticism sometimes
because he knows the kind of
stress that city leaders have in
making decisions.
"There are a lot of sleepless
nights until you make the
decision, and after you make
the decision you have to walk


with your head high. (Some
people) have no idea," he
said.
Gwen Azama-Edwards, a
city commissioner for two
years and city clerk for 15
years, first heard about the
petition when running for
mayor this fall.
Ms. Azama-Edwards was
sold on the move to make
utility billing rates more spe-
cific, though she is still con-
sidering whether the city's
legal department should be
outsourced.
"I don't totally believe in all
of (the amendments), but all
of them are issues that need
to be dialogued and brought
to the forefront," she said.
While some people have
suggested Ms. Azama-
Edwards signed the petitions
out of loyalty to campaign
contributors, she received
only $50 from Mr. Gimbert,
she said.
"I told him I could not and
would not support them
-prior to the election," she
said.
DarleneYordon, whom Ms.
Azama-Edwards faced in the
mayoral election, however,
has come out against the
petitions.
Her main objection is to
Mr. Bynum's association with
the Lollipops Gentlemen's
Club.


Mr. Bynum, a local devel-
oper, rents one of his proper-
ties to Lollipops.
"I won't endorse anything
that Lollipops is behind," the
former six-year commission-
er said. "Daytona Beach has
enough troubles without
having the topless clubs try-
ing to take over."
If anything, the city charter
should be amended to limit
elected,officials' terms to two
years, Ms. Yordon said.
Instead the amendments
"micromanage to create
problems and tunnoil ... to
punish the government."
Mr. Bynum said Lollipops
and its owner have no
involvement in STAND,
which is a personal project of
his.
To avoid such "ridiculous"
allegations in the past, Mr.
Bynum has abstained from
donating to candidates or
getting involved in politics.
This time it was unavoid-
able, he said.
As he stumps for STAND
and works toward his goal of
10,000 signatures by Jan. 30,
Mr. Bynum said he'll be look-
ing forward to the end.
"I'll be glad to go back to
normal life when this is over,"
he said. "I don't like doing the
public speaking thing, but I
guess I was chosen for this
cause for some reason."


Robberies, music mix


up mark end of year


Hi, Hometown News
readers. I hope the
holidays were
joyous and peaceful for all
of you. Certainly Dec. 25
was a quieter day in Volusia
County compared to one
year ago when a powerful
tornado touched down in
the county.
The storm touched down
on the west side, then tore
east to Daytona Interna-
tional Airport, through
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical
University and into apart-
ments, homes and busi-
nesses near Nova Road and
International Speedway
Boulevard.
The Sutton Place Apart-
ments took a direct hit,
destroying nearly 50 units
in several buildings there.
Many residents were away
for the holidays, but those
who were home say the
winds were so fierce they
are grateful they survived.
Roofs blew away, walls
sheared off leaving personal
contents exposed to the
elements.
At the university, the
outcome of the storm was
devastating. The tornado
did more than $50 million
in damage. Buildings were
ruined, planes in the
school's fleet were tossed
around in the wicked winds
like tinker toys. However,
Embry-Riddle administra-
tors will always be grateful
that if a tornado had to
touch down, it did so on a
day when the campus was
near empty because of the
holiday. The school has
come back almost to full
speed. Thelast of the
damaged buildings,
Spruance Hall, was recently
demolished and plans are
moving forward for a new
administration building at
the site.
Volusia County Sheriff's
Deputies have arrested two
men in connection with a
robbery and stabbing
Christmas night.
A 26-year-old man says
he got into a vehicle with
two men he thought he
recognized after they asked
him to help find a nearby
home. The man says that
once in the car, the suspects
demandedmoney from
him and punched and
stabbed him when he

refused to comply.
The victim managed to
get out of the car and run to
a nearby home for help. He
was taken to the hospital
with stab wounds to his arm
and stomach.
Just over an hour after the
attack, a deputy spotted the
suspect vehicle and arrest-
ed 35-year-old Richard
Jones of Daytona Beach and
37- year-old Jose Montanez
from Palm Coast. Investiga-
tors say they found evi-
dence in the car includ-
ing the victim's wallet -
that connects the men to
the crime.
A woman walking home
from the store in Daytona
Beach was nearly dragged
when two men in a passing
car grabbed her purse. The
woman left the Seven Store
Food Shop on Mason
Avenue near Palm Drive,
when a U-haul truck pulled
alongside and the passen-
ger asked her for directions.
Before she could answer he
snatched her purse and the
driver floored it.
The woman tried to hold
on, but quickly fell down
suffering a cut on her arm.
The woman was shaken up
but not seriously hurt. She
lost almost $100 and
personal information she
carried in her wallet.

in an airplane and eight
had never left Volusia
County, her mind was
made up.
"I thought, 'Oh my good-
ness; the places I've been
through family and vaca-
tion and school,"' she said.
"Travel makes a person. It
widens your world view.
This gives the students
who should be in Washing-
ton as politicians a shot at
it."
Each of the selected stu-
dents had to earn mostly
A's on their report cards
and have exemplary atten-
dance and behavior
records at school.
While a student's school-
work was important to
earning a chance at the
trip, the school is not
sponsoring it..
Schools across the coun-
try discontinued trips to
the nation's capital after
Sept. 11 terrorist attacks
out of concern for student
safety.
As schools faced budget
cuts in the following years,
trips weren't reinstated,
Ms. Tyler said.
"We used to have Wash-
ington trips every year.
Now going anywhere out-
side the county is hard.
Outside the state, it's
impossible," the 20-year
veteran said. "It has to be a
completely private trip."
The trip costs $1,400 per
student; each family is
asked to give $250.
Students are expected to
raise the rest of the money
through car washes, odd
jobs and sales of Avon
products, candy bars and
baked goods.
"Usually these trips are
for the students who can
pay," Ms. Tyler said.
"These days, though, who
has an extra $1,500?"
After a couple of months
of students selling on cam-
pus, school principal John
Polsinelli asked them to
stop.
"The kids were disap-
pointed the principal said
they couldn't fund-raise
on campus, but that's such
a drop in the bucket com-
pared to what we need,
that it's not a devastating
thing," Ms. Tyler said.
Though $4,000 was
already raised, acquiring
another $30,000 won't be
easy. With help from travel
agency Smithsonian Stu-
dent Travel, the group has
an extended June 10 dead-
line for fundraising.

offered to help students
set up their own accounts
for the trips, and the Holly
Hill branch will be used as
the group's meeting place
now that they cannot meet
on campus.
United Brethren Christ-
ian Church is organizing a
spaghetti dinner, and Wal-
Mart Neighborhood Mar-
ket gave a $1,000 matching
grant to the group.
The American Legion
Post 120, which serves
Holly Hill and Ormond
Beach, donated $900 after
hearing that first vice
commander Esther Brew-
er's granddaughter,
DeShauna Wright, was
going on the trip.
All of the members knew
how important a trip like
this was to kids, said post
commander Art Schwabe
of Ormond Beach.
"We want them to
remember what other peo-
ple have given so they can
do what they want and say
what they want," said Mr.
Schwabe, an Army veteran
whose grandchildren went
on Washington trips.
"Others made the ulti-
mate sacrifice so they
could have these free-
doms," he said.
DeShauna, who recently
moved to Holly Hill from
New York, said she is
already learning about
budgeting and hard work.
The 13-year-old recently
opened her first bank
account, which she said
she hopes will help her
when she runs her own
veterinary practice some-
day.
"I'd really like to thank
Mrs. Tyler for actually let-
ting us make money,
instead of assuming we
have the money," she said.
Ms. Brewer, who served
in the U.S. Navy during the
Vietnam War, said she
hopes DeShauna and her
friends will visit the Viet-
nam Women's Memorial.
She suggested that other
civic groups like the Amer-
ican Legion donate.
"(This trip is) helping
our children to become
better citizens. These chil-
dren are our future; let's

children some perspective
so they become young

Emergency



medical care



upgraded


BY JEANNE WILLARD
Staff writer

ORMOND BEACH Two
neighborhood fire stations
are bringing state-of-the-art
medical care to patients by
adding Advanced Life Sup-
port as part of its emergency
medical services.
Volusia County Fire Station
18 Rima Ridge in Ormond
Beach and Fire Station 15 in
Daytona Beach began offer-
ing ALS services recently to
better meet residents' needs.
Eighteen of the county's 24
fire stations are now licensed
by the state of Florida to pro-
vide ALS support, which
means those stations will be
staffed with a paramedic and
two emergency technicians
24 hours a day, said Volusia
County Deputy Chief Steve
Plummer.
"We are able to extend the
level of service and capabili-
ties in the field," Mr. Plum-
mer said. "We've stepped that
up."
While all stations provide a
basic level of care by EMTs,
paramedics can provide
advanced cardiac and respi-
ratory care using diagnostic
equipment, intravenous
lines and medications that
are beyond the scope of


EMT's, he said.
Paramedics undergo 1,200
hours of classroom and field
training, he said.
"They've gained vast
knowledge that comes from
experience," Mr. Plummer
said. This helps ensure rapid
assessment of a patient's
condition and early delivery
of care, he said.
Fire engines in ALS sta-
tions are equipped with an
advanced cardiac life sup-
port monitor similar to those
used in hospitals, said Cap-
tain Susan Whitlock, Volusia
County Fire Services Emer-
gency Medical Services Coor-
dinator.
"From a cardiac stand-
point, this is a much higher
level of care," Mr. Plummer
said. But regardless of
whether someone is ill or
injured in an accident, the
enhanced level of medical
assessment will benefit all
patients, he said.
The equipment and sup-
plies purchased to enhance
the two stations cost more
than $30,000, and was fund-
ed through an Emergency
Services Trust Fund Grant,
Ms. Whitlock said.

contacted Catholic Charities who
directed her to the United Way and
finally to the year-old Disability
Solutions for Independent Living,
in Daytona Beach.
The state and federally funded
agency serves 72 people county-
wide, helping them hone living
skills and find peer counseling and
support groups.
They also work as a referral
agency to Volusia Builders Care,
the nonprofit wing of the Volusia
Homebuilders Association that
provides home renovations to the
disabled.
"We do all these things so people
can remain at their homes and not
be costing taxpayers' money on
their care," said Disability Solu-
tions executive director and VBC


board member Julie Shaw. "A
(wheelchair) ramp seems like such
a little thing, but it makes a huge
difference in keeping someone in
their home."
While a ramp would have been
the best solution to Mr. Downs'
problem, the incline was too steep,
Ms. Shaw said.
"There was no way you could
build a ramp. It would look like an
amusement park. The only way to
get him in the home was to get him
rehabbed to climb steps," she said.
"The reality is, otherwise he'd have
to move."
For months, Mr. Downs worked
hard at Horizon Health Care Cen-
ter-Daytona to regain his strength.
On Dec. 15, 12 volunteers from
Disability Solutions, Horizon and


VBC gathered at the Downs home
to build railings around the sur-
rounding steps and to fix the bro-
ken back door.
On Christmas Day, Mr. Downs
leaned on his 50-year-old wife as
he used the stronger left side of
his body to make it back into his
home.
Back at home, Mr. Downs can
choose to receive as many or as
few of the services Disability Solu-
tions offers, Ms. Shaw said.
"This is not a medical model
approach which says you need to
fix the disabled person," she said.
"They determine what services
they get."
Although he can no longer work
because of his limited speech, Mr.
Downs can stay home alone.


Usually, though, Mrs. Downs is
home during the day, having
given up her job as a certified
gemologist to work as a night
security guard, and at night, 18-
year-old Louise is home from her
cosmetology classes at Daytona
Beach Community College.
The Disability Solutions and
VBC volunteers will be back at the
Downs home Jan. 19 to make the
back steps to the home shorter
and more level for Mr. Downs,
Altogether, the VBC's projects
cost its members about $1,000
each and take eight hours of
labor, ,said VBC chairman Jack
Beach of Ponce Inlet.
VBC has helped families in
Holly Hill, New Smyrna Beach
and Edgewater in the two years


since Mr. Beach founded it after
seeing a similar program in Jack-
sonville.
"These are people that don't
qualify for funding and can't find
help anywhere else," Mr. Beach
said. "We catch the people who
are falling between the cracks."
Though Mr. and Mrs. Downs
have faced their biggest hurdle in
19 years of marriage this year, the
help of many local organizations
have made the family's prospects
for 2008 bright.
"We didn't expect this and it was
so hard in the beginning," Mrs.
Downs said. "We are so thankftl
to everyone for their help. It's really
been a blessing."

Reader gets a slap in the face

As to the complaint about Ormond Beach's mayor hav-
ing a vendetta against the fire and police, it sounds like
the same old CAN DO group trying to create dissension
and lies, as was tried during the past Ormond Beach
commission election.
All nine or more complaints against the mayor had to
do with not paying enough to the union employees. How
bizarre and absurd can a letter writer sink in making
those hateful ridiculous statements?
The fire and police unions have received more than
double and triple the cost of living in payroll raises, plus
full medical and 100 percent pensions paid by our taxes.
That is why the payroll exceeds 70 percent of the general
budget. We have firefighters retiring at more than
$100,000 in annual benefits.
Over the next few years when other Ormond firefight-
ers start retiring with huge pension payments from our
city, guess who will be responsible to pay those taxes?
Our children. That's a nice legacy to leave them.
All that letter writer was trying to do is stir up the pot
and maybe find another hateful person like him/her and
continue the past negative complaints against the city
commission. Anyone working in the business world
would love to have the raises and benefits given to the
Ormond Beach employees.
All employees, public and private, deserve a cost of
living raise, but attacking any municipality with the
scare tactics of losing emergency services just to
enhance another greedy move at unjust pay raises is a
slap in the face of those paying the bills.

Taxpayer upset with city spending

On the eve of consideration of the utility rate increase,
I find it incredible that Mayor Fred Costello and the
majority of the Ormond Beach City Commission
approved an additional $20,000 donation so the Day-
tona Beach International Festival would be able to have
the London Symphony Orchestra.
I admit I have no idea how or why these people think
the way they do to spend the peoples' money on some-
thing so trivial. It was noted by city spokesman Tom
Lipps that this money is out of the general fund. Is the
general fund a bottomless pot of money for our repre-
sentatives to use as they want?
I could go on and on about this, but the mayor and
city commission need to get their act together and start
taking a real interest in the taxpayer and how they can
reduce our taxes and fees.
Let us not forget our county commission gave $1 mil-
lion of our tax money for this event. I could care less
about the mayor growing up in a home filled with music
and feels this is important, even though he admits "this
isn't for everybody."


City is not well run

I'm very upset that the city of Ormond Beach decided
to give $20,000 of taxpayer money to the London Sym-
phony Orchestra. They are not even in Ormond Beach;
they are in Daytona Beach.
Although I am in favor of culture programs, I as a resi-
dent cannot even afford to go myself or treat my family
to their shows because they have Broadway prices.
I just called the mayor's office and was given his dental
office to call. That's no way to run a city. They are part
time, but they should do city business in their personal
time or in the evening. People shouldn't have to call
where they work.
I'm just sorry that the same people got in office
because like our government we needed a change. I
don't think we're going to get anywhere in Ormond
Beach.


In response to
'Developers pulled a fast one'

The writer needs to be more careful about his facts.
Blue Water is not the same company that proposed a
planned re-development of the Ormond Beach water-
front. That company was Ocean Waters, which is owned
by the Bray Gillespie Company.
The writer is also wrong about Ocean Waters "trying to
destroy the character of Ormond Beach." The plan sub-
mitted by Bray Gillespie was a good faith offer to change
a tacky looking oceanfront to a showplace that residents
could take pride in.


Unfortunately, the writer and others like him, forced a
referendum that will keep Ormond's beachside looking
shabby for years to come.

A fool and his money

To the taxpayer who wanted to pay online: Have you
ever heard of a check? Take a look at all the money you
waste in ATM fees and service fees.
I don't think of it as inconvenient; I think of the real
money I save. My convince fee would be $500.
I think I'll enjoy the money and spend 43 cents for the
stamp and $0 for the check.

Musings on a rant.

I read with interest the letter on separation of church
and state. It is true there is a separation of church and
state, but there is none between belief in a creator and
state. If you believe in a creator, you can't part that cre-
ator from your life. Also, it couldn't hurt.
Lastly, we still can believe in Santa because he lives in
all our hearts as the real spirit of Christmas. In a sense,
that spirit is truly the spirit of the creator. If that is true,
then that same spirit can attend any and all meetings.
May that same "spirit" live in our lives this whole year
of 2008.

A secret Santa spreads joy

One week before Christmas, on Dec. 18, a special
Christmas happened.
I was going into a convenience store to pay for my
gas. As I was entering, I took out a $20 bill to pay for
the gas, and I dropped two $20 bills.
As I paid for gas, Santa came up and gave me back
the two $20 bills. I was dumbfounded and didn't say
what I wanted, and before I came to my senses, he was
gone. I tried to catch up to him, but he was gone.
So, this is the only way I can thank him: Santa in the
black car, Merry Christmas! And I did do a payback
that same day. I remembered reading in Hometown
News about a mother of a soldier serving in Iraq who
sent cards and gift certificates to Burger King on the
base.
I bought $20 worth of gift certificates and donated
them in your name (Santa in the black car). May you
have the best year in 2008. You made my day and gave
me hope in the future.

Mother feels son was cheated

During the summer, my son was driving home at 3:15
a.m. on a Sunday. On Atlantic Avenue, he noticed a
police car trailing him. Being very aware of the speed
limit, he made sure that he kept within that limit.
For more than one and a half miles, the officer tailed
him. During this journey, there are two 25-mile-per-hour
stretches of road and a stop sign. Only when my son
turned on his directional signal to turn into the driveway
of our house did the officer signal him to stop. This he
did in our driveway.
The policeman then exited his car and requested his
license and insurance. After checking and finding every-
thing in order did the officer then issue a speeding ticket.
He had obviously satisfied himself that my son was nei-
ther on drugs nor drunk. This in spite of the time of day


and the fact that my son has long hair.
It appears that the officer issued the ticket to cover the
fact that he may have been accused of profiling had he
not. All this resulted in a $249 fine and an increase in my
son's insurance.
This past week, I read in the paper about a deputy who
crashed his sport utility vehicle into parked cars when,
according to witnesses, he was drunk.
It also stated that four other deputies including a lieu-
tenant and a sergeant failed to notify the Florida High-
way Patrol that an off-duty deputy had crashed and alco-
hol was involved. The officers who first arrived at the
scene refused to test the driver for alcohol. He, the
deputy, was found sleeping in his truck five hours later
by a trooper.
This ended when the deputy pleaded guilty to a traffic
citation and was fined $123. The other officers involved
served two days suspension and loss of pay and two let-
ters of reprimand. Oh, yes, the deputy involved in the
crash also was suspended for an efitire day without pay.
Does it seem that the scales of justice are not quite bal-
anced?

Reader says,
'Find somewhere else to smoke'

Why is it that every time I go to a store, there are peo-
ple right in front of the doors smoking?
This is very. disturbing and unhealthy to us nonsmok-
ers. Don't you ever think that there are families that do
not smoke and they have to walk their children through
your exhaled cloud of nicotine?
I am now in my fourth month battling cancer (not lung
cancer). I'm concerned about inhaling'second-hand
smoke, plus it makes me nauseous to .even smell certain
odors. It looks quite dumb when I have to cover my face
with'my shirt. It's hard enough for me to go out in public
and hopefully not catch a cold, which would be harsh on
me due to my health. ,
Yes, you smokers are probably saying, "Well, why don't
you just stay home." I have every right to be out and
enjoy my life and so do you, but let's have some consid-
eration. Second-hand smoke kills! Sit in your cars and do
your habit; use your ashtray, not the ground.

Believe it or not

I thought Christmas was the day we recognized the
birth of Jesus. Well, why are all these people, who say
they don't believe in God, out celebrating the Christmas
season if they don't believe?
When they get serious problems, they ask God to help
them. Then why are our churches only half full on Sun-
days? Also, why can't we pray in school? If you don't
believe, just sit there and be quiet while we pray.
These people say they don't believe in the Lord, but
when it comes to his birthday, they are quick to partici-
pate.
So, if you buy gifts or receive gifts for Christmas, you
really have religion; you many not want to admit it. It is
not a crime.
Either way, if you don't, it's your loss, and I will pray for
you. Just don't tell those of us who do practice religion
that we can't say grace before a meal or that we can't say
a prayer at a gathering. It's our constitutional right.
Let's stop tearing this country apart; let's start bringing

Double-duty senators
are cheating taxpayers

There are a lot of senators and con-
gressmen running for the presidency, and
from what I understand, they are still on
the payroll. What gives them the right to
stay on the payroll while they look for
another job?
I couldn't do that where I work. If I told
my boss to keep me on the clock while I
look for another job, he'd fire me.
They ought to end this and take them-
selves off the payroll if they are going to
be looking for another job.
Who's doing their senator job while
they are out? Does the job not require
them all year and they can take off all year
and campaign?
I think this a rip-off to the taxpayers of
this country, no questions about it, pure
and simple.

This president needs to go
This is about the president and the
money he doesn't want to give to the chil-
dren for their medical attention, and he
took things away from seniors.
He allows billions for his war, how
much long are Americans going to put up
with that person in the White House?
And as for the CIA business: he says he
doesn't recall. Of course he doesn't.

Volume control impossible
with loud commercials

Have you been watching a TV program
when suddenly a commercial blares on 50
percent louder than the program?
Do you receive the overly loud commer-
cials from the Bright House Network?


For Weekly uocat

They play the regular program at a lower
volume and raise the commercial volume.
The only cure is to hit the mute button
and forget it, or you can hold the remote
control and run the volume down and up
and down and up.

Grateful for the free
Hometown News

I read the other day that someone was
complaining about Hometown News
being distributed freely.
I wanted to say, I am very glad it is dis-
tributed freely every week, even if I am
not here all the time. I have nice neigh-
bors who are collecting it so that the
paper is not lying about too long. I think
this is a wonderful thing.

Who tests plastics
in small appliances?

How can I tell if the plastics used in a
hot pot or coffee pot are OK?
I first had a hot pot from China that
smelled so strongly of petroleum or plas-
tics that I had to throw it out. The taste of
the tea that I made from the hot water
gagged me.
Now I just bought a Cook coffee pot
(not JCPenny's Cooks brand). I tried to
use the pot for tea, and again, the plastic
odor was strong, even after I ran white
vinegar through it several times, and tried
to use it.
Does anyone test the plastics in these
small kitchen appliances?
I understand that some plastics, like
(those) used for the milk jug are safe.
There are high-heat plastics used for pan
handles that are fine, but there are plas-
tics that give off toxins with heat and this
concerns me.

Mayor defends


CRA master plan


Editor's note: Holly Hill
Mayor Roland Via responds
to a recent Hometown
News article concerning the
city's Community Redevel-
opmentAgency.
The Holly Hill Commu-
nity Redevelopment
Agency, established in
1996, is one of the 177 in
Florida and has proven evi-
dence of its success.
Based on 11 years of
experience with issues
concerning our CRA, I take
exception to comments in
a recent article about the
Holly Hill CRA.
Opinions are one thing,
but when inaccurate infor-
mation is added, I must
respond.
Ten years ago in the
north end of unincorporat-
ed Holly Hill was the
blighted Riviera Hotel.
Empty for years, the devel-
oper negotiated associated
municipal costs and
annexed into Holly Hill,
invested in the historical
heritage and improved the
property into what it is
today: a premier assisted-
living facility.
Later, a multi-million
dollar addition further
improved the city's tax
base.
Halifax Shopping Center
in Holly Hill's south end
was failing; Publix
announced it was moving
north. It annexed into
north Holly Hill and we
captured a new shopping
complex and tax base.
It's obvious that the
north CRA area on U.S. 1,
next to Ormond, has dra-
matically improved the last
few years.
The south end with the
new Marina Grande con-
dominiums is rapidly
improving, so it's true our
CRA borders affect sur-
rounding cities.
One CRA focus is to
bring new business into


ROLAND VIA
Mayor of Holly Hill


Holly Hill and strengthen
existing businesses, allow-
ing our residents to shop in
our town.
In the last 10 years, more
than 140 CRA businesses
and residences have been
awarded more than
$800,000 in facade and
landscaping matching
grant programs to encour-
age greenery and improve
their appearance. With
their match, that is more
than $1.5 million in CRA
improvements.
Quoted in the article was
Peter Colt, a self-pro-
claimed "expert" on CRAs,
whose statements bring to
question his qualifications.
A grant awarded to the
McDonald's franchise was
characterized as "giving
away money to rich peo-
ple" when the financial sta-
tus of a business has no
bearing.
Further stated was that
"cities have the problem of
the downtown dying."
Holly Hill has no down-
town, however it has a
commercial district the
entire length of the city,
which has shown much
positive improvement in
the last 10 years.
Another statement is
that Holly Hill "can't find
things to give the money


away to."
False.
We just went through a
seven-month, citizen-led
process to identify a CRA
master plan that is very
specific on how and where
CRA money can be spent.
Rick Michael, Volusia
County's director of eco-
nomic development,
declared "the Holly Hill
CRA master plan as one of
finest redevelopment
plans he's seen in his over
25 years of experience."
A statement that the CRA
is "killing the residents
with taxes" also is untrue.
CRA monies are derived
through the success of the
CRA plan, not the citizen's
taxes. If not for the success
of the CRA, there would be
no additional money.
In Holly Hill, 83
percent of the property
taxes in the CRA are
paid by non-
residential property taxes.
More business, less tax
for the resident: sounds
like a plan to me. Holly Hill
has the lowest taxation in
the county, making it the
least- expensive place in
the county to live and do
business.
Anyone may meet with
city staff or myself to accu-
rately gain information on
the Holly Hill CRA and its
master olan, or go to
www.HollyHillFl. org where
the master plan has a link.
A coalition of Holly Hill
residents and businesses is
having a CRA information-
al gathering with free
refreshments in Hollyland
Park behind the library on
Saturday, Jan. 5 from 11:30
a.m. to 2 p.m. and citizens
are welcome.
On Tuesday, Jan. 8, the
City Commission will meet
to discuss amending the
CRA master plan. Citizens
are welcome at that meet-
ing as well.

Lima's culture, cuisine memorable


The taxi ride from
Lima, Peru's
airport to a nearby
suburb was virtually a
heart-stopping experi-
ence.
I'd landed in an urban
jungle with its own set of
rules.
With no central public
transportation, taxis rule
in this city of more than
nine million people and
for those who are on the
far side of 30, the ride is
reminiscent of an E-ticket
at Disneyland.
Traffic lights, stop signs
and speed limits were
treated as mere sugges-
tions by our driver as he
flew through streets
narrowly missing pedestri-
ans and vehicles.
Gridlock is common and
patience isn't a virtue with
horns blaring constantly
as drivers jockey for
position.
Pedestrians beware -
you don't have the right-
of-way. Nevertheless,
walking around the
seaside suburb of Miraflo-
res proved to be a great
way to experience the
culture and sights.
Be prepared for taxi
drivers honking if you
walk alone. Certain that
you would rather ride than
walk, the drivers will take
every opportunity to
remind you of their
presence.
I was immediately struck
by small carts piled high
with fruit and snacks
located on almost every
street corner. This was
Lima's version of our
vending machines.
Fresh fruits play a large
part in Peru's cuisine.
Besides bananas, oranges
and pineapples, you'll find
mangos, passion fruit and
more exotic choices such
as a cherimoya, which
resembles a squashed pine
cone. The sweet pulp is
incorporated into wonder-
fully refreshing desserts.
The cuisine of Lima is
varied and delicious.
Traditional native dishes


JEANNE WILLARD
Travel columnist
include ceviche (raw fish
marinated in a juice) and
fresh fish to more hearty
Andean dishes such as
stew, potatoes and cuy or
guinea pig.
Although I passed on
sampling cuy, I tried the
immensely popular Inca
Cola. This national soft
drink is yellow, fizzy and
tasted a bit like Bazooka
bubble gum from my
childhood.
My plan to bring some
back for my co-workers
was thwarted when the-
bottles were confiscated at
the airport due to a ban on
liquids.
Dried and salted fava
beans, called habas, are a
popular snack. Cancha, a
toasted corn snack, that
resembles corn nuts in
appearance only, is often
offered as an appetizer.
Aji, a potent hot pepper,
spices many dishes and
sauces.
Due to a favorable
exchange rate of more
than three nuevo sols to
the dollar, dining is a
bargain with entrees at
many upscale restaurants
priced at what we would
consider coffee-shop
prices, under $10. Howev-
er, liquor and dessert more
closely approach Ameri-
can prices.
Cafes and Internet-
access shops line the
streets and dollars and
credit cards are accepted
at most restaurants and
stores. Taxis and street
vendors require local
currency and a basic


command of Spanish is
helpful.
First-time visitors may
be startled to find that
toilet paper is not flushed,
but, rather placed in
separate containers next
to toilets. I was told this is
typical of plumbing
systems throughout South
America, which cannot
adequately handle waste
paper. In addition, it's wise
to carry a small roll of
paper because some
establishments don't
provide any.
Lima's Parque del Amor,
Park of Love, overlooks the
ocean and features a huge
sculpture of a kissing
couple lying on a bench.
Benches are decorated
with broken pieces of tile
and spell out romantic
phrases.
Ironically, next to this
lover's park is a bridge
where barriers were
erected along the span due
to the high number of
suicide jumpers.
Cusco, considered the
heart of the Inca Empire, is
an hour's flight from Lima
and the flight afforded
spectacular views of the
Andean mountain range.
The ancient city is
located at 11,500 feet
above sea level and
requires precautions to
avoid soroche or altitude
sickness. I sipped mate de
coca, a tea made of coca
leaves to alleviate symp-
toms. Do not attempt to
bring the tea back with
you, though, it's illegal in
the U.S.
This would be a good
place to try regional dishes
such as guinea pig, alpaca,
potatoes and a fermented
corn beer called chichi,
but continental cuisine
and pizza are readily
available.
People are warm and
friendly, but you will be
approached frequently by
locals many children -
selling crafts or snacks. A
firm "no gracias" deters all
but the most persistent.
Traditional Andean
clothing is still worn by


many. Simple homes,
some little more than
shelters, are perched on
crowded hillsides, coexist-
ing with modern restau-
rants and shops in the
main town square.
Peru is a traditionally
Catholic country, but over
the years, traditions have
incorporated indigenous
beliefs that are evident in
festivals and art.
A painting of the last
supper by Marcos Zapata
located in a baroque
cathedral shows guinea pig
as the main dish.
Quality hand-crafted
silver jewelry and fine
alpaca products are a
shoppers dream.
Many first-time visitors
to Peru put Machu Picchu
on the must-see list. The
three-hour train ride from
Cusco to reach the ancient
ruins passes through
spectacular scenery, but
the train stopped and
rolled backwards as it
changed tracks.
The 15th century Inca
ruins, not discovered until
1911 are magical and
breathtaking.
The Inca's built struc-
tures of finely fitted stones
and boulders on steep
mountainsides without the
invention of a wheel and
they left no written records
to solve the mystery of how
this was accomplished.
Standing atop the ruins
surrounded by breathtak-
ing vistas with the
Urubamba River a mere
ribbon far below, I could
only reflect on our place in
the universe.
From urban sprawl to
pristine mountains, from
modern professionals to
village dwellers, Peru is a
fascinating paradox
between ancient and
modern culture, rich and
poor, young and old. It is
well worth the visit.

YMCA announces
2007 charitable gifts

This year, hundreds of
individuals, businesses and
community volunteers
raised more than $200,000
for Flagler and Volusia
County children and fami-
lies through the Greater
Daytona Beach Area YMCA.
The gifts are a way to
remember the founder of
the Homac Companies,
Gene McGrane. Billy and
Linda McGrane have made a
personal gift of $5,000 to
Camp Winona.
Mr. McGrane was instru-
mental in building. the
Ormond Beach YMCA and
funding Camp Winona. The
gift includes $3,000 dedicat-
ed to the Ormond Beach
Family Center YMCA and
$5,000 to YMCA Camp
Winona. Other local chari-
ties are recipients of charita-
ble gifts from Homac Com-
panies.
A charitable organization,
the YMCA is open to people
of all abilities, ages, back-
grounds, cultures, faiths and
incomes.

Robot-assisted
radical prostatectomy
performed

Halifax Urology Center
successfully completed the
first robot-assisted radical
prostatectomy at Halifax
Health Medical Center
using the da Vinci S Surgi-
cal System on Dec. 11.
Richard Landrigan
served as the console sur-
geon and Charles E. Wom-
ack a staff physician with
Halifax Urology Center,
functioned as the patient
side surgeon.
Charlie Gunter, who has
been disabled since 1973
after a tree fell on him
while working, received a
diagnosis of prostate can-
cer and came to the staff at
Halifax Urology Center for
treatment. After hearing
his treatment options, Mr.
Gunter, 56, believed a
robot-assisted radical
prostatectomy, which
includes the removal of the
prostate gland, was the
right choice for his situa-
tion.


The da Vinci is operated
by a surgeon who sits a few
feet away from the patient
at a console to perform
complex surgery using a
minimally invasive
approach. The surgeon
controls the arms of the
robot that holds surgical
instruments that are
inserted into the patient
through small laparoscop-
ic ports. The robot's video
monitoring system pro-
vides a three-dimensional
view of the surgery with
magnification 10 times
that of the naked eye.
Dr. Landrigan has per-
formed several hundred
open prostatectomies dur-
ing his career.
For qualified candidates,
da Vinci robot assisted
procedures may offer
numerous potential bene-
fits including shorter hos-
pital stay, less pain, less
risk of infection, less blood
loss and transfusions, less
scarring, faster recovery
and quicker return to nor-
mal activities.

Realtors, cycling
company win award

Adams, Cameron & Co.
Realtors and Plan B
Cycling of Port Orange
were presented with the
Rookie of the Year award
from the Multiple Sclerosis
Society for their work on
the 2007 PGA TOUR MS
Bike Ride.


The Adams, Cameron &
Co. team raised more than
$20,000 for this event.
Each of the riders rode
from St. Augustine to Day-
tona Beach and back for a
round trip of more than
150 miles.

Daytona Beach Toys R Us as
a promotional holiday
giveaway. It was labeled the
family friendly Disney
Channel Hits Remix and
was to include Hannah
Montana but instead
featured the group The

Disney Records didn't

Daytona Beach Police
were called to a home on
George Engramm Boulevard
recently to do a well-being
check on a man in his 60's
living there alone.
Firefighters made a forced
entry and found at least 15
cats inside and the home in
a deplorable condition.
There was animal feces and
urine all over the house but
no sign of the resident,
identified as Jerrett Teel.
Police later learned Mr. Teel
was in the hospital and will
work with the department's
victim advocate to see what
help Mr. Teel may need.


Meanwhile, animal
control officers took
custody of the cats and the
building has been marked
unsafe with no trespassing
signs posted.
It's unclear where Mr. Teel
will live once he is released
from the hospital.
South Daytona Police are
investigating two similar
cases of fraud and may
ultimately be looking at one

Within a week, suspects
placed orders for pizza and
both times paid for them
with counterfeit $100 bills.
In the first instance, police
say a caller ordered a pizza
to be delivered at an
apartment complex on
South Palmetto Avenue.
The suspect met the
delivery person in the
parking lot and paid for the
pizza with the counterfeit
money, and accepted the
change.
Five days later, a caller
ordered a pizza at the same
complex but this time using
a specific apartment
number. The delivery
person knocked and when
no one answered started to
leave. That's when the

Actor/comedian Steve Solomon
returns to the News-Journal Center

My Father's Jewish, and I'm In Ther-

Mr. Solomon will entertain resi-

He will take audiences on a fresh
look at his life growing up in an Ital-

how it drove him to therapy.
Last September, the show played
three performances, drawing stand-
ing ovations from near-capacity
audiences before moving to New


York City's Little Shubert Theater,
where it was originally slated to play
through January, but has since been
extended on an indefinite open-end
engagement. The show has toured

The Seabreeze Sandcrabs
had a fantastic run on the
gridiron this fall. And, as
head coach Marc Beach
emphasized during the sea-

about individuals; we win as
a team."
But in the post-season,
Beach and his staff recog-
nized the individuals who
contributed to the team's
success at the annual foot-
ball awards banquet.
High school football fans
will undoubtedly recognize
the efforts of the following
