GALLIPOLIS — The Gallia County Board of Commissioners announced Thursday the acquisition of four 16-bed residential care cottages on 7.8 acres, from the State of Ohio, for the price of $1. “We are extremely pleased to have ﬁnally closed on the property today,” said Commissioner David K. Smith “The process to secure the cottages from the State of Ohio began well over three years ago. Since that time there have been countless meetings and conversations with elected ofﬁcials and state leadership regarding the future ownership and use of the property.” In 2016, the Gallia County Commissioners, joined by local business leaders, civic ofﬁcials and then-Attorney General Mike DeWine met to discuss a variety of local matters which included the future of the Gallipolis Developmental Center. As speciﬁed in Senate Bill 364, the property retains a deed restriction limiting the use of the real estate for mental health and addiction treatment only. Therefore, the Board of Commissioners and Gallia County Economic Development have been actively engaging with companies and entities that would best meet the needs of the community while satisfying the property use restrictions. Commissioners, Thursday, said that they were still in discussions with potential organizations to utilize the property. “Job creation and retention are a priority of the board, therefore we intend to quickly put the buildings back to productive use in a manner that will beneﬁt our community See COUNTY | 7A Business owners address land bank delay Public meeting scheduled for Thursday By Sarah Hawley shawley@aimmediamidwest.com POMEROY — Two concerned business owners approached the Meigs County Commissioners during Thursday’s regular meeting, asking the status of the proposed land bank for Meigs County. Maureen Burns of Herbal Sage Tea and Bruce Martin of Holly Hill Inn asked the commissioners for an update on the land bank, which was previously approved in a resolution by the commissioners. “Meigs County is the jewel of the Ohio Valley… a hidden jewel,” said Martin. He asked the commissioners to imagine what it could be like with the dilapidated properties renovated, demolished or cleaned up. According to the Center for Community Progress, “land banks are governmental entities or nonproﬁt corporations that are focused on the conversion of vacant, abandoned, and tax delinquent properties into productive use.” The land banks are designed to help revitalize areas and properties which have been abandoned or have not been taken care of for many years. Commissioners Jimmy Will explained that the establishment of the land bank is a two part process. The ﬁrst step in the process was the resolution passed by the commissioners earlier in the year. The second step is for the county treasurer to ﬁle the articles to form the land bank. Will said it is two pages of paperwork and a $100 fee. “She has refused to do so,” said Will of Treasurer Peggy Yost completing the necessary ﬁling. Will said the only explanation has been concerns regarding a lawsuit in Cuyahoga County. “If the treasurer is holding us back what can we do,” asked Burns. Commissioner Randy Smith said that during the County Commissioner Association of Ohio conference last week there was a group session on land banks. During that session he asked if there See BUSINESS | 7A A NEWS Obituaries: 2A Editorial: 4A Weather: 10A B SPORTS Comics: 7B Classifieds: 8B Courtesy photo Pictured from left to right in the Farmers Bank $50,000 donation: GAHS Athletic Director Adam Clarke, Gallipolis City School Board Member Amee Rees, fundraiser committee member Josh Bodimer, Superintendent Gallipolis City Schools Craig Wright, Gallipolis Branch Manager Amanda Pearce, Jerry Frazier Vice President GAHS Boosters, Loan Officer Carolyn Kesterson, CSR Amber Cavender, fundraiser committee member Cindy Angel, committee member Melissa Davis, President GAHS Booster Jennifer Edelman. Bank donates $50k to stadium Staff Report RIO GRANDE — The Gallia Academy Stadium and STEM Project recently held “The Fall Gathering” in efforts to raise awareness and funds towards the Gallia Academy Stadium and STEM campaign. This was the ﬁrst event of its kind through this particular campaign. Through admission tickets, silent auction, a live auction and a $50,000 commitment from Farmers Bank, this event was able to raise over $70,000. There were nearly 300 attendees dressed in their ﬂannel and jeans, and a fun time was had by all, supporters say. Entertainment was provided by local bluegrass band, The Red Brush Band. The event was held at Rio Ridge Venue, located in Rio Grande and dressed in fall décor. “We are very excited to grow our relationship with Gallia Academy High School,” said Paul Reed, president and CEO of Farmers Bank. “Through academics and athletics, students are able to learn the necessary skills that will beneﬁt them in all areas of life. The stadium and STEM project will not only enhance our community but will also give our children a safe environment to have fun and make memories for generations to come. We are excited to see the new facility.” “Farmers Bank’s generous donation is not only an investment in our children but also in the revitalization of our community,” said Craig Wright, superintendent of Gallipolis City Schools. Since its start in May, this fundraising campaign has been able to raise over $155,000 in donations and pledges in addition to the nearly $45,000 left from the previous fundraising campaigns. “We set a two-part goal when we kicked off this fundraising campaign in May,” said Josh Bodimer, a committee member of the fundraising efforts. “Goal number one: raise $1.5 million in 500 days. The 500th day is September 21, 2020. Goal number two: raise an additional $3.5 million by May 9, 2024. We plan to make this happen and see this through to the end.

Greiner Co. of Baltimore and built by the West Virginia-Ohio River Bridge Corp. and American Bridge Co. The WV-ORBC had been organized just a few years prior by Dr. Charles E. Holzer, who, as someone who needed quick access to patients, understood the need for quicker transportation between Ohio and West Virginia. From the start of construction, it took less than a year to construct the $1.2-million-dollar bridge, a record for the companies involved. It was a gleaming testament to the genius of the designers, supported by rocker towers and eyebar chains that boasted a strength of 150,000 pounds per square inch. After WWII, the bridge was upgraded from a wood and asphalt roadway to one of concrete and steel. Certainly, in 1967, nobody would have believed you if you told them that the bridge was going to collapse. Yet at 4:58 p.m. on Dec. 15, 1967, an eye-bar broke just below the Ohio tower. Many eyewitnesses heard what sounded like a shotgun, and then the shaking began. It was so rough that some cars were moving as much as 6 inches to either side. Suddenly, the bridge rocked violently one way, then the other, and then the bridge just dropped. An awful sound, that of metal grinding on metal, continued throughout the collapse, and then an oppressive silence set See CARDS | 7A �NEWS/OBITUARIES 2A Sunday, December 15, 2019 Sunday Times-Sentinel GINA RHIANNON SILVERS STEGALL OBITUARIES GALLIPOLIS — Gina Rhiannon Silvers Stegall, 40, of Gallipolis, passed away on Friday, December 13, 2019 at the home of her sister surrounded by her family after an extended illness which she fought ﬁercely.

Courtesy photo | Rio Grande Elementary School Mrs. Kay’s 5th grade math and science classes at Rio Grande Elementary School recently had a guest speaker. John Kay from Kyger Creek Power Plant came to speak with the two classes about how the plant produces electricity, what the job of an environmental engineer is, and how they monitor and regulate the emissions that come from the plant stack. The presentation helped to reinforce the 5th grade science standard that states: “Organisms perform a variety of roles in an ecosystem.” The class learned that as humans, they are a large part of the surrounding ecosystems. The lesson said it is a human’s job to regulate pollution and do its part to keep the planet healthy. The class also discussed the 5th grade science standard that states: “Light/Heat and sound are forms of energy that behave in predictable ways.” In learning about the operation of the plant, the students learned that heat is a large part of the process and that heat comes from burning coal. The students asked questions and wrote essays following the presentation on what they learned from Mr. Kay. �NEWS Sunday Times-Sentinel Sunday, December 15, 2019 3A Grange donates to food pantries MEIGS HEALTH MATTERS Staying active in the winter scheduled exerIn Meigs Councise, deﬁnitely ty, we are blessed check out the ﬁtto live in a region ness facilities and with weather that group exercise allows outdoor classes offered activities almost here in our counyear-round.

This tactic will only add seconds to your walk into a building, but remember that increasing physical activity can add years to your life. 4) Have “walk-meetings”. Informal meetings are perfect for getting in extra steps. 5) Utilize any building you are in to purposefully get more steps. The grocery store, the mall or even at work if there is space. Here at the Health Department we have a hallway that makes a loop. Walking the loop is about 200 steps and takes about 3 minutes. Taking a brisk 3-minute walk each hour can be a great way to get in more steps. As you can see, most of the tips are small lifestyle changes you can start doing immediately and cost nothing at all. I suggest trying the tips that are most realistic for you at this point in your life. Keep in mind, small amounts of physical activity add up throughout the day, which will add up to a healthier and happier lifestyle for you and your family.

And spying can make children feel paranoid. I asked Elf if he knew what other doll comes to life when nobody is watching. Chucky, a horror ﬁlm star. “Elf,” I said. “When you blab to Santa when kids argue with siblings Melissa or refuse to clean Martin their rooms, kids Contributing start to resent you.” columnist Elf sniffed and blew his plastic nose. “I know I’m a tattle-tale, but that’s my job.” I invited Elf to talk more about his emotions. “I’m a hot mess,” he muttered. “And now Jimmy Kimmel is using me as a political poking joke with Trump on a Stump and Pence on a Fence.” Elf proclaimed he is a bipartisan pixie. He doesn’t want to see Bill and Hill on a Window Sill or Barack in a Clandestine Sock or Nancy P. in an Ambush Tree. “Talk about why some elves are sooo ornery,” I said. We discussed how he is supposed to role model appropriate behaviors. “I know I go overboard sometimes and spill ﬂour on the ﬂoor and roll it or ﬁsh in the toilet. But give me a break. The parents make me do it.” Elf sobbed as snot bubbled out his nostrils. I handed him a half of a tissue. Some parents are tired of hoho-hoing and moving Elf around every night. And spending money on special clothes and accessories. FYI: Elf on the Shelf doesn’t know he’s not real. He was created by humans. He showed me Facebook pictures of the wacky stunts adults make him do with Barbie and Ken. “I’m the victim,” he declared. Elf denied abusing alcohol and smoking marijuana. Elf did confess that he slipped Ritalin into Rudolph’s water bowl before takeoff last year. And he admitted to putting reindeer poo in Sarah Elizabeth Sander’s stocking. I suggested that Elf work on his low impulse control. “This year I’m on the holiday menu at IHOP. Pancakes with sweet cream cheese icing and whipped topping,” Elf bragged. “And Kellogg’s Elf on the Shelf Sugar Cookie with Marshmallow Breakfast Cereal features me.” “Elf,” I replied. “I’m not supposed to judge what clients do, but do kids really need more sugar?” Elf watched me for quite a while without speaking. I just knew Santa would leave a lump of coal in my stocking. “Why don’t you focus on the behaviors the kids are doing well? Like when they share, take turns, and help around the house.” We discussed positive behavioral tools. “What about an elf alternative?” I suggested that he consider becoming a Pocket Pixie that encourages intentional acts of being kind to others over the Christmas holiday and beyond. “Just talk to Mrs. Claus,” I recommended. To make a long story short, I referred Elf to a 12 Step program called Tattle-Tale Anonymous. And the Human Resources ofﬁce at the North Pole.

But every year, just as they’re about to start their lives as adults, 20,000 young people around the country lose their homes as they “age out” of foster care. All of a sudden these young adults who depended on the foster care system for a place to call home are now on their own. They don’t have the same family safety net to fall back on that others may have. Instead of focusing on their higher education, they often face work to together to housing instability, better serve these vuland a third of them nerable young people. will experience homeLast week, I spoke lessness. with Cloé Cooper of That’s why I worked Columbus.

Cuyahoga County agreed to pay Corrionne Lawrence, 25, $140,000 to settle a federal lawsuit claiming corrections ofﬁcers beat him for no reason, allowed another inmate to attack him and threatened him for speaking to ofﬁcials from the U.S. Marshals Service, which concluded in a November 2018 report that conditions in the jail were inhumane. Lawrence’s lawsuit also claimed corrections ofﬁcers threatened to pepper spray and hang him to make his death look like a suicide. The settlement has to be approved by the Cuyahoga County Council. A county spokeswoman on Friday declined to comment about the settlement or the new lawsuit. Lawrence’s attorney Ashlie Case Sletvold said in a statement that the county “has nurtured a culture of violence at the jail.” “Corrections ofﬁcers should not be doling out beat downs or Courtesy photo | Roberta Shriver Southwestern Elementary School held its fall festival Nov. 2.

GM to invest $1.5 billion in Missouri plant WENTZVILLE, Mo. — General Motors will invest $1.5 billion to make what it calls the “next generation” of mid-sized pickup trucks at its plant near St. Louis, the company’s president said Friday. GM will use the money to upgrade its Wentzville Assembly and Stamping Plant in preparation for the new products, GM President Mark Reuss said at a news conference inside the plant, about 40 miles (65 kilometers) west of St. Louis. The company already produces the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickups there. Reuss said the investment is expected to help retain 4,000 jobs at the plant. The company has about 4,300 total workers in Wentzville and any job losses will come through attrition, said Glen Kage, president of United Auto Workers Local 2250, which represents the workers.

Smith said there is no way to move forward without the treasurer submitting the paperwork. Should the land bank process not be completed by the end of 2019, the county stands to loose $250,000 in funding which is set aside for counties who establish new land banks. The grant funding runs out at the end of the current calendar year, said Will and Commissioner Randy Smith. Smith explained that once that funding is no longer available a new land bank would only have a small portion of tax revenue in order to begin operation and that it would not be ﬁnancially possible. Will said not only could the land bank help to clean up the properties but could help with the delinquent tax problem in the county. He said that in Meigs County tax collection is around 68 percent, well below the surrounding counties which are in the 90s. Burns asked if a meeting could be set up in order to ask the questions about why the process is not moving forward, and allow for people on both sides of the land bank conversation to express concerns and receive information and answers. A public town hall meeting has been scheduled for 6 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 19 in the Meigs County Common Pleas courtroom for the purposed of discussing the Meigs County Land Bank and why it has not been moving forward. The commissioners have invited the treasurer and auditor to take part in the meeting. More on Thursday’s meeting will appear in an upcoming edition of The Daily Sentinel. Sarah Hawley is the managing editor of The Daily Sentinel. conﬁrmed that no jobs will be cut. GM will invest about $1 billion to upgrade the plant itself. The rest of its investment is expected to be used for things such as machinery for outside companies that supply parts to the plant. “It’s a big deal,” Reuss said. “I feel good about this. I really do.” The company did not release speciﬁc information about the new generation of mid-sized pickups, a product line in which GM has domi- nated in recent years. “Sufﬁce to say they will be very worthy replacements for the generation of trucks that rejuvenated and redeﬁned the mid-sized segment,” Reuss said. The investment in Wentzville is part of GM’s comprehensive strategy to invest in growth areas and strengthen its U.S. manufacturing base, Reuss said. The expansion comes as GM plans to permanently close factories in Ohio and Maryland. which serves as an asset to prospective companies and organizations looking to expand to our community.” Commissioner Brent Saunders added, “We sincerely thank Governor Mike DeWine, Senator Bob Peterson and former Representative Ryan Smith for their strong support and assistance they have provided to ensure that Gallia County gained ownership of the property.” The 6,700 squarefoot cottages, formally utilized as a part of the Gallipolis Developmental Center (GDC), were vacated in recent years as client populations reduced. Once serving as one of the largest employers in Gallia County, the GDC experienced layoffs in 2009 and 2012 due the client reductions at the center. Since 2009, facilities like the GDC have seen a reduction in clients due to efforts to enforce the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Olmstead v. L.C.

Two years later to the day, on Dec. 15, 1969, the Silver Memorial Bridge was opened, fulﬁlling a promise made by President Lyndon Johnson that a new bridge would be built within two years of the collapse. This ended the need for ferries between Point Pleasant and Kanauga. The disaster also led to Congress’ passage of stricter bridge inspection standards. Today marks the 52nd anniversary of the collapse, and we still remember the 46 lives lost on that bitterly cold night.

The sister of Gregory Fox, 36, sued the county in federal court, claiming jail employees failed to provide him with mental health care and medication or take steps to prevent him from killing himself in his cell in August 2018. Fox told jail staff members about his mental illness and his previous suicide attempts, the lawsuit said. Eight inmates, including Fox, died at the jail from June to December 2018. Four of the deaths were suicides. Another inmate killed himself in May. The Marshals Service in November issued a report that said the grossly overcrowded jail was plagued by “inhumane” conditions, abusive behavior by corrections ofﬁcers and unsanitary conditions, and concluded the lockup was unsafe for both inmates and staff members. Problems with medical and mental health care for inmates also were cited in the report. Recent state inspections have noted improvements as overcrowding has eased. The U.S. Attorney’s Ofﬁce in Cleveland is conducting a civil rights investigation regarding the jail.

The Eastern girls basketball team came up one point shy of the reigning Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division champions on Thursday in Washington County, with Waterford escaping with a 22-21 victory to stay perfect on the year. Eastern (1-4, 1-3 TVC Hocking) started the game with its best offensive quarter of the night, hitting 4-of-12 ﬁeld goals en route to a 8-to-2 lead.

After back-to-back 31-point setbacks, the River Valley girls basketball team turned the tables on Thursday night in Gallia County, defeating Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Division guest Wellston by a 64-33 ﬁnal tally. The Lady Raiders (3-4, 1-3 TVC Ohio) — snapping a 37-game skid in league-play — trailed 9-0, with Wellston making its ﬁrst three three-pointers. River Valley answered with a 17-to-4 run, sinking four trifectas of its own and leading 17-13 at the end of the ﬁrst quarter.

River Valley stretched its lead to 33-16 by halftime, and then scored the ﬁrst eight points of the second half for a 41-16 lead. Wellston battled back to within 19 points, at 44-25, by the end of the third, but RVHS went on an 8-0 run to start the fourth and led 52-25. WHS ended the drought with a two-pointer at the 5:19 mark of the quarter, but the Silver and Black closed the 64-33 triumph with a 12-to6 spurt.

Steelers host big game against Bills McDermott and Tomlin have remained in touch during their respective professional careers, with McDermott occasionally reaching out to Tomlin in search of advice. All of which is kind of funny to Tomlin, who remembers McDermott as the more focused of the two when their playing careers for the Tribe overlapped in 1993 and 1994. “I was just trying to have fun,” Tomlin said with a laugh. He still is. Tomlin might be in the midst of the most remarkable coaching job of his 13-year tenure. Last week’s victory over Arizona assured the Steelers of a 16th straight season season ﬁnishing .500 or better — the second-longest active streak in the league behind New England — and they’ve done it despite an avalanche of injuries on offense that has forced Pittsburgh to reinvent itself on the ﬂy. Undrafted rookie free agent and budding cult hero Devlin “Duck” Hodges is the quarterback. Two other rookies — Benny Snell and Kerrith Whyte — have carried the bulk of the running game since James Conner injured his right shoulder before Halloween. Third-round pick Diontae Johnson electriﬁed while accounting for both of Pittsburgh’s touchdowns against the Cardinals. Pittsburgh isn’t lighting up scoreboards as it did during the “Killer B” era led by Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown and Le’Veon Bell. Yet the Steelers are still in the thick of things in mid-December, just like always. “In the locker room, no one doubted him one bit, ever,” Steelers outside linebacker Bud Dupree said. “The outside world probably doubted him because he didn’t win the Super Bowl every year. But it’s the Steelers. People expect the Steelers to win the Super Bowl every year. But if he was on another team, he would be coach of the year plenty of times. But being here, expectations are a little higher. He really handled the pressure.” Something McDermott is learning how to do in Buffalo. From the moment he and general manager Brandon Beane were hired in 2017, they’ve talked about building the franchise into consistent contenders. S e r e Wh ho p s S a t an OH-70163100 PITTSBURGH (AP) — Sean McDermott remembers lining up across from Mike Tomlin and wanting to do everything he could to impress everyone watching, from the William & Mary coaches to his teammates to Tomlin himself. It comes with the territory when you’re a freshman defensive back and the wide receiver you’re facing happens to be an upperclassman and a team captain. “We had our battles,” said McDermott, who played with Tomlin for two seasons in 1993-94. “I was a walk-on, he was a scholarship athlete. He was established and I was just trying to get a pair of cleats.” A quarter century later, the stage is a much different one. Like McDermott during his early college days, the Buffalo Bills are the upstart in search of some street cred heading into a rare prime-time visit to Pittsburgh to face Tomlin and the Steelers. A win and the Bills (9-4) clinch their second playoff berth in McDermott’s three seasons. A victory by the surging Steelers (8-5) and Pittsburgh leapfrogs Buffalo for the AFC’s top wild-card spot.
