California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger just began following me on Twitter. I took the opportunity to look up several columns that I have written in the past in which I have mentioned him in conjunction with the fact that his father-in-law, Sargent Shriver, grew-up in Westminster, MD.

Westminster Eagle News Brief: Budget woes dominate Westminster mayor and council meeting

Westminster Eagle – http://www.explorecarroll.com/

September 28, 2009 by Kevin Dayhoff kevindayhoff AT gmail.com

Westminster City Hall - The meeting of the Westminster mayor and Common Council last Monday began with plenty of smiles, but the mood quickly turned somber as a discussion on budget woes dominated the balance of the evening.

Mayor Kevin Utz conducted a public hearing on the 2009 Comprehensive Plan for Westminster. Later in the meeting the council voted to adopt the plan after more discussion of how proud the council and staff were to have received such good feedback from the state on how well the plan was developed and written.

Council president Damian Halstad brought up “Budget Amendment No. 1” for adoption. Utz explained “this reduction in the budget came as a direct result of the governor’s reduction in highway user revenues…”

Other council member joined-in as it was explained that the state Board of Public Works recently voted to not send $818,000 in revenue due the city from taxes collected by the state designated for the city’s coffers – in order to balance the state budget.

A press release describing the budget amendment explained, “The State of Maryland reduced the Highway User Revenues from $747,580 to $74,758 and Police Aid from a budgeted $400,000 to $254,826.”

City administrator Marge Wolf said that she expects the state to withhold an additional $329,000 from the city in January.

According to the press release: “Among the cuts approved by the Common Council were cancellations of the paving contract, technology purchases and a police vehicle which totaled $267,950 in capital expenditures; diversion of the $100,000 contingency reserve to operating accounts…

“… conversion of $215,000 of Union Street property proceeds to operating accounts; reduction of departmental operating budgets by $155,086; revision of the take home vehicle policy to institute a partial employee payback of costs by $15,768; and captured $65,000 in savings from reduced tipping fees.”

Wolf tried to put a bright face on a bleak picture at that by remarking that “this is not the best of times, but it doesn’t mean we don’t have good projects underway.”

As if on cue, Lori Graham, representing the business community, gave a report on the “Midnight Madness,” downtown business celebration held in conjunction with Fallfest. She also gave an update on plans for the upcoming community ‘electric’ Christmas parade.

“The community has its share of problems but we still come together to do good things,” said Graham.

Carroll County Sheriff’s Department: Homeless man recovering at Shock Trauma - Troy Thomas Haller aged 29 of no fixed address, arrested, charged… (All photos courtesy of the Carroll County Sheriff's Department...)

Westminster, Carroll County, Maryland, October 3, 2009 ---- At approximately 6:55p.m., Carroll County Sheriff’s Deputies and members of the Westminster Volunteer Fire Company responded to the railroad tracks along Route 27 beneath the Route 140 overpass for a report of an injured person.

Arriving deputies found a group of apparently intoxicated homeless persons at a makeshift campsite approximately 75 yards from the roadway.

Among them was a semiconscious middle aged man lying atop a pile of garbage below an eight foot tall retaining wall at the site, he was later identified as George Herbert Smith Jr. of no fixed address.

Suffering from severe head and facial injuries, paramedics transported Smith to a nearby landing site where he was flown to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center for treatment.

Smith remains in serious but stable condition.

During their investigation, deputies learned that Smith had been laying atop the retaining wall when Troy Thomas Haller aged 29 of no fixed address began punching Smith in the head and face approximately 9 times, before kicking him in the ribs until Smith fell from the wall.

Witnesses reported the attack was unprovoked.

Consequently, Haller was arrested and transported to Carroll County Central Booking where he was charged with the following criminal law violations:

· First Degree Assault
· Second Degree Assault
· Reckless Endangerment
· Disorderly Intoxication

Haller is currently awaiting a bail review before the District Court Commissioner.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact Detective Stem of the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office at 410-386-2900. The investigation continues…

Special Olympics of Maryland Fundraiser

Special Olympics of Maryland Fundraiser

Host: Westminster Police Dept.
Date: Saturday, October 3, 2009
Time: 12:00pm - 6:00pm
Location: Town Mall
Street: 400 N. Center Street
City/Town: Westminster, MD

A message from Westminster Police Chief Jeff Spaulding

Slush n slide with Chief Spaulding

Dear Friends:

The Westminster Police Department and Time Out Sports Grille will be co-hosting a great new event at Town Mall in Westminster on Saturday, October 3rd from noon to 6:00 p.m. to support my good friends at Special Olympics Maryland.

The event, called the “Slush ‘N Slide”, is an outdoor festival suitable for kids of all ages and it’s a great warm-up for the Polar Bear Plunge which will be here before we know it.

During the festival we will be making an attempt to set a record by building the world’s largest snowball (as in snow cone). Following our attempt, hearty souls – hereafter known as “Sliders” – will take a turn sliding down a 28-foot inflatable waterslide into our record-breaking creation.

BRRRRR!! The privilege of sliding is reserved for those that raise a minimum of $50 in pledges for Special Olympics. Yep, I’m there!!

In addition to the Slide there will be tons of great things to do. Carnival games, face painting, wing and watermelon eating contests – even a chance for one lucky slider to win a new Harley-Davidson motorcycle!

Live music will be provided by “The Reagan Years”, a regional 80’s band with a huge following. Great food will be available, as well as a beer garden for those adults in the crowd.

A variety of personalities will be on hand to include Mayor Kevin Utz (also a slider) and 98 Rock’s Theo, Stash and Sarah “The Queen” Fleischer. A $5 donation to Special Olympics is requested of all non-Sliders who wish to attend the festivities. More details about this incredible event are available on-line at http://www.slushnslide.com/.

Please consider joining me in supporting the incredible athletes of Special Olympics by becoming a Slider. You can register yourself or your team at http://www.slushnslide.com/.

If sliding into freezing water isn’t your thing (I sure wish it wasn’t mine), please consider supporting my slide by making a contribution on the Slush ‘N Slide website as follows:

· Once on the “http://www.slushnslide.com/” website, click on “Sponsor Slider”

· Type in my first and last name (Jeff Spaulding) and hit enter

· Select my name from the list provided

No contribution is too small and every dime is greatly appreciated. Your contribution is 100% tax-deductible and all of the money raised goes directly to the 10,000+ athletes of Special Olympic Maryland.

Revealing President Dwight “Ike” David Eisenhower

Revealing Ike by Kevin E. Dayhoff September 30, 2009

Click here for a larger image: http://twitpic.com/k2cji

Of all the presidents of the United States, the one which Frederick and Carroll Counties may have literally the closest connection is President Dwight David Eisenhower, known affectionately as “Ike.”

Just recently my family and I went on a history exploration trip to nearby Gettysburg to visit the new Gettysburg Battlefield visitors’ center and the Eisenhower National Historic Site, which is adjacent to the battlefield.

In years past, it would have been called a “day trip,” however, the term “staycation” has in recent years crept into our lexicon. Even the Merriam-Webster dictionary now recognizes the word to mean “a vacation spent at home or nearby.”

President Eisenhower lived on a farm and raised Black Angus cattle about 10 miles above the Maryland-Pennsylvania border.

Zombies on the Town

Coming this week in the Sunday Carroll Eagle:

Living dead will invade 'Westmonster' for third annual Zombie Walk

By Charles Schelle

If you see the undead roaming the Westminster's Main Street next week, don't worry. The only thing they're hungry for is a good time and a free movie.

In fact, they're bringing their own food.

The Westmonster Zombie Walk will return for its third year at 1 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 11, beginning at the Westminster Barber Shop, 140 Village Shopping Center, Westminster.

Zombies will shuffle down Main Street to the Carroll Arts Center, 91 W. Main St., for a free screening of "Night of the Living Dead."

Hi, I am Kevin Dayhoff, and I would like to be re-elected - along with Councilmembers Ann Gilbert and Greg Pecoraro - to remain in the three Westminster Common Council seats that are available in the upcoming May 9th city election.
