ALEXANDRIA — City Coun-cil is shortening the amount oftime developers can demolishor build projects.

During the Feb. 20 meet-ing, City Attorney MichaelDuncan explained that build-ing and demolition rules havebeen intertwined in the city’sbuilding codes. The new ordi-nances treat each action sep-arately, and set shorter timelimits on each one.

Building permits are goodfor 18 months, and permitholders can receive a six-month extension if they havesufficient proof why theworkcan’t be completed in thattime, Duncan said.

The new proposal limitsbuilding to nine months forsingle-family residential con-struction and one year forcommercial construction. Asix-month extension would begranted only if the permitholder could demonstrate jus-tifiable cause for more time.

Projects containing moresquare-footage, such as theforthcoming Baptist LifeCommunities complexplanned for the city’s north-

eastern edge, should be con-sidered individually, saidCouncilman Bob Simon.

He suggested the city’sPlanning andZoningCommis-sion could add language toidentify those larger projects,and the resolution passedunanimously.

First reading was held ontwo ordinances that create aseparate demolition permit,limit the amount of time forprojects to be demolished,and provide that violations ofthe demolition ordinance gobefore thecity’s codeenforce-ment board.

Duncan said thedemolitionpermits would be limited tosix months, with a possibilityfor a 60-day extension, so pro-jects “don’t drag on.”

Hesaidprojects thatwouldtake less time would be per-mitted for that amount of timeonly.

“If they say they only needa permit for three or fourdays, we can hold their feet tothefire for that,” saidDuncan.

Mayor Bill Rachford saidthedemolitionordinances tar-get specific properties in thecity, such as Ray and Tina

ALEXANDRIA — Agreeing toplay in the Groundhog Tourna-ment is a little likeupholding thePostal Service motto, as neitherrain, nor sleet, nor snow ofwhite, will stay these playersfrom the swift completion oftheir rounds.

Twenty teams competed inthe two-day tournament, orga-nized by Rob Haddon of Camp-bell County’s Veterans of For-eign Wars Post 3205, on Satur-day and Sunday, Feb. 22 and 23.

Haddon said playing in mudand snow is part of the tourna-ment’s 37-year tradition.

“We do like to play in themud,” said Mike Sester, whomade his eighth appearance inthe Groundhog tournament.“Everyyeartheyputthis togeth-er, and it’s either for a needyfamily or to support a baseballteam. It’s for agoodcause, and itgets our first swings in for theseason, even though it’s usuallybad.”

Swinging isn’t the problemduring the two-out innings.

Batters have a hard time tak-ing off out of the batter’s box be-cause of the slippery start, andfielders find the balls plop andstop in themud, instead of doing

Pfeiffer’s property at8339 E. Main St.

Previous reports showthe Pfeiffers purchasedthe property in Septem-ber 2011 after the citycondemned it in August2010, andhavebeenwork-ing on its deconstructionsince then, in order tomove their Kids Consign-ment Shop into the newspace.

“That’s kind of whatthis ordinance is about,”he said. “As of today, that

would be the end of 18months. We were toldthey’d be finished lastyear. This will give us amore structured ap-proach and tighten up thetimeline, so these thingsget done pretty quickly.”

Ray Pfeiffer admitshis “by hand” method ofdemolition, using “acrowbar, sledgehammerand a Sawzall,” to takeapart the historic build-ing, took longer than justknocking thewhole build-ingdown, but saving theirmoney on that equipmentwill allowthemto invest itin “future rebuilding ofthe property.”

Although he’s near theend of the demolitionprocess, Pfeiffer said thesix-month time restric-tion has “effectivelyeliminatedmyability, andothers with the initiativelike me, from embracingtheir opportunity to sharein the American Dream.”

Pfeiffer said he willsoon be sending in plansto rebuild the property.

“It is a very excitingtime for us, and we verymuch look forward tobringing this part of thecity back to life,” he said.

“It is fun to play in themud,but it’snoteasy,”saidSean Kelly. For his secondyear in the GroundhogTournament, Kelly optedto play shoeless, wrappinghis feet in two layers of

socks with plastic wrap inbetween.

“I ended up taking myshoes off because theykept getting stuck in themud, so I just played bare-foot last year, which wasvery cold,” he said.

Kelly ended up losingthe socks before his firstgame was finished, leav-ing them in a muddy heapon the dugout floor andplaying barefoot.

“The winter is a long,long season, so you’ve gotto find something fun todo,” he said.

“Every year I say I’mnotgoing toplay in it, then,every year, I’m like, ‘Sure,I’ll play in it,” said LisaDougherty,whoplayedforthe third time this year,while wearing boots.

LEXINGTON — With sevenstate placers and two champi-ons, the Campbell County HighSchool displayeda strongbrandof excellence at the Kentuckystate wrestling championshipsFeb. 22 at Alltech Arena.

As in 2013, the Camels fin-ished second in the team stand-ings but were able to celebrateindividual titles from dominantperformers.

Senior SeanFausz and juniorAustinMyers steamrolled theircompetition to repeat as indi-vidual champs, in Myers’ case,three in a row.

“A lot of hard work,” saidFausz. “Not looking past any-one, making sure I wrestled theway I should andwhat I’mcapa-ble of each and every match.”

Fausz,who isheadedtowres-tle at North Carolina State Uni-versity, rolled in the 138-poundfinal, beating Angel Vasquez ofLafayette 17-6. Fausz won hisfirst match by pin then claimedthenext fourbydouble-digit de-cisions.

“It felt good,” said Fausz,who finished 53-2. “He’s a fight-

er. It wasn’t the most dominantperformance I’ve had, but Ican’t argue. He was a great op-ponent and it was a real goodfight.”

Myers remained unbeatenagainst Kentucky opponents inhis career, beating CameronMattingly of John Hardin 20-5in the 220-pound final, scoringthose points in threeminutes ofmatch time,with thematchend-ing by technical fall (15-pointmargin).

Myers won his first fourmatches by pin in 68 combinedseconds, needing just 35 in thefirst three rounds. Myers fin-ished 49-0 for the season.

“I made my normal movesandwhat Iknowhowtodo,”My-ers said. “Itwashard topinhim,but a tech fall is good, too. It’sanother goal on my way to four(titles). I want to get four.”

“I think it’s fantastic we getanybody from our team goingto state because we don’t havethe club swimmers or the kidswhocanaffordall theextradiv-ing lessons,” Dorsey said. “It’sa big plus for our programwhenwe get someone to state.”

Sophomore Adam Leopoldwill go to state after finishing10th in the Region 4 meet. Hescored 261.90 points in themeet. The 10th-grader hasskipped two grades in school.

“Adam has been diving for

four years,” Dorsey said. “He’svery intelligent. He’ll try any-thing and learn the techniquesquickly. We push him to learnnew dives and better degree ofdifficulty so he can go back tostate the next two years.”

Sophomore Adam Burbrinkfinished 14th in diving at re-gionals. His score was good

enough for an at-large stateberth but each region is only al-lowed 12 state berths, Dorseysaid.

Former felons deserveright to vote

I have been a long timesupporter of HB 70. This billrestores the vote to hundredsof thousands of former fel-ons who have paid their debt.This is critical to the healthof our democracy. I wasdeeply saddened to see howthe Senate has changed thiscommon sense and fair pieceof legislation into an exces-sive bill that would hangmore than half of the target-ed population out to dry.

I find the five-year wait-ing period to be extreme.There is a waiting periodalready in the original bill inthe form of probation andparole. The right to votewould be granted only afterthat Kentuckian had com-pletely served their sentencenot upon release from pris-on. An additional waitingperiod is pointless and un-reasonable.

What is equally as trou-bling is the exclusion of any-one with more than one felo-ny. The goal of prosecutorsare to charge a person withas much as possible. Itshould not matter howmanyfelonies are on your record.If you have served your timethen you should be given thatessential right back.

On paper HB 70 gives the

right to vote back to thoseoffenders who have paid fortheir transgression. HB 70 isreally about welcoming ourfellow Kentuckians back intosociety and treating themwith the respect that every-one deserves. I encourage allKentuckians to voice theirconcerns with their repre-sentatives at 1-800-372-7181.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Start with $1million. Theninvest $100,000 increments infive community areas: trans-portation, health and wellness,housing, jobs and education.

Which area gets the mostdollars? What should the re-gion’s priorities be? That’s upto you.

An online interactive gameis just one of the many waysthe community can get in-volved with myNKY, a vision-ing campaign being guided byVision 2015 that is designed todevelop the priorities andgoals for Northern Kentucky’snext strategic plan.

I work for Vision 2015,Northern Kentucky’s 10-yearplan for growth. The plan,created by more than 2,500people in 2005, has had tremen-dous success – the launch ofthe Catalytic DevelopmentFund, the expansion of Successby Six, the recreation of theNorthern Kentucky EducationCouncil, the informatics busi-ness accelerator known asUpTech, and manymore initia-tives are a result of our cur-rent plan.

Now that 2015 is almosthere, it’s time to start thinkingabout the region’s future. It’stime to write the next plan forour community and we needyour help to do it.

This time around we’reusing social media and our

website,myNKY.org, togather opi-nions and al-low communi-ty members,fromWilder toWalton, andFort Mitchellto Falmouth, tohelp set thefuture direc-tion for North-ern Kentucky.

myNKY is the perfect placefor you to share your opinions,your thoughts and your ideasabout what we need for thefuture, not only for the regionas a whole, but for you andyour family personally.

It’s a fact – Northern Ken-tucky stays competitive be-cause we have a common com-munity agenda that allows usto accomplish more collective-ly than we ever could alone.That’s why creating this plan isso important.

I invite you to learn moreabout the myNKY campaignby attending the NorthernKentucky Forum onWednes-day, March 12, from 8 a.m.-9:30a.m. at Northern KentuckyUniversity’s George and EllenRieveschl Digitorium.

During the forum, you’llhear updates on the cam-paign’s progress, learn of waysto get involved, and most im-

portantly have the opportunityto share your ideas about thechallenges facing NorthernKentucky.

But you don’t have to waituntil March 12 to get involved.You can start now by visitingmynky.org.

The site features a gamethat I hope you’ll play, as wellas a rotating polls and chal-lenge questions on topics suchas education, transportation,workforce and jobs.

I challenge you to ask your-self, “What one thing do I thinkcan be done to improve life inNorthern Kentucky?” Thinkhard, and answer carefully.The response to this questionand to the others you’ll find atmynky.org could make thedifference in making NorthernKentucky a better place to liveand work.

Whether you do it online orin-person, myNKY is yourchance to say – in a way onlyyou can – what Northern Ken-tucky can do or change tomake this region even better.

DuringWorld War II, thebusiness community droppedtheir business models andimmediately began wartimeproduction. Frigidaire nolonger made refrigerators,but instead made machineguns and propellers for fight-er jets.

William Knudsen left Gen-eral Motors to lead the Unit-ed States war machine. Heleft a salary of $300,000 towork for free. Why? Knudsenreplied, “This country hasbeen good to me, and I wantto pay it back.”

American businesses will-ingly sacrificed a great dealto help America win the war.This is not surprising sincebusinesses are givers, nottakers.

Today, politicians andbusiness leaders claim thereis no money to build vitalinfrastructure projects likethe Brent Spence Bridge.We’re told taxpayers mustdig deeper into their pocketsand spend thousands of dol-lars per year to pay tolls.

I have another solution.What if the biggest financialtakers in America wereasked to give back to helpfinance a major infrastruc-ture project like the BrentSpence Bridge? Would theyrespond like businesses didduringWWII or are they toogreedy and self-centered togive back?

Do you know howmuchmoney is sitting in universi-ties’ endowment funds?

Merriam-Webster definesendowments as, “A largeamount of money that hasbeen given to a school, hospi-tal, etc., and that is used topay for its creation and con-tinuing support.”

The GAO reports that on

average 8.8percent ofendowmentassets areused to fundongoing oper-ations. Doesthat meanthese fundsare dwin-dling? Hard-ly!

The Na-tional Associ-

ation of College & UniversityBusiness Officers surveyed835 colleges and universitiesand found 2013 endowmentassets total $448.6 billion.That’s an increase of 10 per-cent over 2012 assets of$406.1 billion. Eighty-twouniversities have endowmentfunds exceeding a billiondollars.

Harvard’s endowmentfund increased from $30.7billion in 2012 to $32.7 billionin 2013. That’s an increase ofa B. S. Bridge.

The top five endowmentfunds are: Harvard $32.7billion, Yale $20.7 billion,Texas $18.3 billion, Stanford$17 billion and Princeton $17billion.

If these takers wouldmake a one-time donation of$3 billion to the B.S. BridgeProject their endowmentfunds would drop by less than1 percent. Each school wouldpay their proportionate fairshare.

I know they’ll scream thatthey need that money to sur-vive as if bridge-crossersdon’t need their money tosurvive as well. Shut up anddo it for America.

I was pleased to see Sen.Rand Paul calling out MatBevin on his bailout flip-flop.The senator said, “I think ithurts any individual if it ap-pears as if their responses toissues aren’t consistent.”

Bevin has done some oddthings. He claimed he “attend-ed” MIT when he only attend-ed a seminar in a MIT building.NoMIT faculty was involved.

Sen. Paul is tea party, yet hesaid his endorsement andbacking of Sen. Mitch McCon-nell was “unqualified.” Paulsaid, “I think he’s (McCon-nell’s) been a very conserva-tive leader for Kentucky.” Yet,the tea party people are stillsupporting Bevin.

Sen. McConnell stands tobecome Senate majority leaderif Republicans control theSenate helping us Kentuckiansand the entire U.S. But, the teaparty people support Bevin.He would be a “newbie backbencher” with little if any pow-er to help Kentucky if elected.That’s wacko.

The tea party got off to abad start with real Repub-licans. Garth Kuhnhein, thenpresident of the Northern Ken-tucky Tea Party, posted thefollowing message on its web-site just before the March 2012Republican Party reorganiza-tion. Kuhnhein said:

“At the next meeting of the

Kenton tea wewill discusshow to getinvolved inyour localRepublicanparty and re-turn it to theparty of lim-ited govern-ment, freemarkets andfiscal respon-sibility.”

We real Republicans consid-ered Kuhnhein’s comments aninsult. He accused us of beingfor an expanded role of gov-ernment, in favor of a man-aged/socialist economies andfiscally irresponsible. He dis-played incredible ignorance.

Throughout history we Re-publicans have been the onespromoting limited govern-ment, free markets, fiscalresponsibility, liberty and thesanctity of life.

While Republicans are try-ing to increase the number ofU.S. senators so we can takecontrol of the Senate fromHarry Reid, the tea party hastaken us in the opposite direc-tion.

In 2010, the tea party in-jected candidates into Repub-lican primaries in Colorado,Delaware and Nevada, defeat-ed the Republican candidatesthen lost the general elections

keeping the seats Democrat.In Indiana, they cost us a

seat. The tea party said Repub-lican Sen. Richard Luger wastoo “liberal” so they injectedRichardMourdock into theRepublican primary. Mour-dock defeated Lugar then lostthe general election to JoeDonnelly, a Democrat. A U.S.Senate seat Republican for 18years is now Democrat.

The tea party consiste ntlymakes three mistakes. First,tea partiers attack Repub-licans like Sen. Lindsey Gra-ham, Sen. JohnMcCain andSen. Mitch McConnell yet saynothing negative about Demo-crats like Harry Reid.

Second, tea partiers injecttheir candidates into Repub-lican primaries, defeat theRepublican candidates thenlose to the Democrats.

Third, tea partiers don’tunderstand that they cannotachieve their objectives unlessthey win general elections.

Now, as to this RINO thing. Iam not a member of the teaparty. I am a Republican only.Kuhnhein and his posse areregistered Republican, yet callthemselves tea party mem-bers. They are Republicans inname only. They are the teaparty RINOs.

Small businesses signifi-cantly impact Kentuck-y’s economy, accordingto a report by the U.S.

Small Business Administrationpublished last February. Theyrepresent 96.7 percent of allemployers and 47.8 percent ofthe private-sector labor force.

Pie Bird Sweet and Savoryis one of them. The handmadepie business began in an Elsm-ere home last summer. The

owner, Jonni Lynch,, is marriedand mother of a 5-year-old,with four dogs and a full-timejob at a law firm in Covington.

“This is what I love to do,”she shared. “I want to givemyself the opportunity.”

About five months agoLynch joined the NorthernKentucky Kitchen Incubator.Together with other small busi-ness owners, she shares kitch-en space at Senior Services ofNorthern Kentucky in Coving-ton.

The idea came from RachelDesRochers. “The kitchen

incubator is a united kitchenspace so that we’re all workingunder one roof,” she said.

Her business, Grateful Gra-hams, produces handmadevegan graham crackers. “Itallows small businesses to getoff the ground so they’re nottaking over the burden in over-head of what of a commercialkitchen costs.”

Members of the incubatormeet once a month to shareideas. For instance, they nego-tiated with a local printer sothey can get their labels print-ed at a discounted rate.

“We have buying power thatwe wouldn’t have if we didn’twork together,” DesRocherssaid.

“We’re also working with anaccountant who’s going to helpus,” she added. “He’s retiredand part of the senior services,and just wants to donate histime.”

To celebrate their successesthey had an open house earlierthis month where all the foodproduced at the kitchen was upfor sale. The event drew quite acrowd.

Other local producers repre-

sented were the Delish Dishgourmet caterers, Love andFluff Marshmallows, Whirly-bird Granola, and EvergreenHolistic Learning Center, bak-ers of vegan zucchini bread.

Small business owners whoare interested in becoming partof the incubator should contactDesRochers atwww.gratefulgrahams.com.

“When you have other peo-ple that own small businesses,you have somebody to talk to,”DesRochers shared. “It’s awe-some because we all work to-gether.”

CE-0000583079

It was a week of “lastofs.” We split and stackedthe last of our wood(check out our smilingphotos onmy blog) andwe had our last sled rideof the year. Son Jasonvideoed it not just for fun,but, as he said, “to haveevidence that you, mom,actually made it down thehill.” Well, I not only

made itdown thehill but Iwent far-ther thanany of thekids. Sothere. I alsoused thelast of ourgardenbutternutsquash to

make a nice pasta dish,which I’m sharing today.All these “last ofs” re-mindme that spring isnot far away.

Pasta withbutternut squashand sage

This is a real im-promptu, go to taste reci-pe. The original called forfresh sage and I only haddried frommy herb gar-den. Unless you add redpepper flakes, don’t lookfor a lot of spice in thisdish, just a nice, mellowflavor.

1butternut squash, about 3pounds, peeled andchopped into 1⁄2-inch cubes

1 large red onion, coarselychopped

Olive oil8 oz. whole wheat shortpasta

4 tablespoons butter orolive oil

Dry or fresh sage leaves(start with 1 teaspoon dryor 6 fresh, chopped and gofrom there)

2-3 teaspoons minced garlicSalt and pepper (I added abit of crushed red pepperflakes at the end)

Parmesan for garnish

Preheat oven to 375degrees. Mix squash,onion, salt and pepper,and enough olive oil tocoat. Place in single layeron pan and roast about30-40 minutes, untilsquash is tender andlightly browned, turninghalfway through. Cookpasta. Cook butter, sageand garlic until garlic isgolden. Add squashmix-ture, and pasta (I didn’tadd all the pasta at once)to taste. Addmore sage ifyou like. Add red pepperflakes if you want. Sprin-kle with cheese. Serves3-4.

Tip from Rita’skitchen

Easy-to-peel wintersquash/pumpkins: Worthsharing again. Poke holesall over with fork. Put in

microwave on high for afewminutes. This softensthe skin. Remove withmitts. Let cool and peel.

You knowwhat? Thesquash/onion mixture isso good on its own that itwould make a great sidedish.

Homemadehoney-lemon coughsyrup

Ever since I talkedabout this on RonWilson’sgardening show, I’ve hadrequests to share. Goodfor sore throat coughsand just about anythingupper respiratory thatails you. Raw honey iswhat I recommend for itsantibiotic properties,healthy enzymes andother good nutrients.Check out my blog formore health qualities oflemon and honey, photosand a honey poulticerecipe. Here’s how Imake the cough syrup:

Roll a washed lemonaround (organic pre-ferred) on counter, put-ting pressure on it withyour hand to help releasethe juices and breakdown cell structure. Cutin chunks and pour honeyover to cover. Smoosh alldown with a spoon. Let sitin refrigerator a couple ofdays before using. Storein refrigerator. Take ateaspoonful as needed,several times a day ifnecessary.

More goetta storiesThey keep coming in!Mueller family goetta.

JoyceMueller’s familymakes goetta at Christ-mas as a gift to them-selves. She said: “Ourfamily uses pork andveal. We put the meat in apot; add water, onion,celery (the leafy part),carrots, pickling spice,bay leaf, allspice andbouillon and cook like astock. After simmeringfor about an hour, wegrind the meat, reservethe water into which weplace the groundmeat, alittle barley then stir inquick oats until one can’tadd anymore oats. Placein the bread loaf pans. Wefry in a cast iron skillet.”

Carol’s vegetariangoetta. Reader Sandi W.loved Carol’s goetta andwanted to know if it canbe frozen. Hopefully,reader Julie Bruns, whoshared the recipe, will letus know.
