Press offices moving Forest Park City Council vot- ed 6-1 at its Nov. 18 meeting to reduce the city’s tax credit pro- gram, effectively raising taxes for almost half of the city’s tax- payers. The emergen- cy measure is ef- fective immedi- ately. The city has a 1.5 percent in- come tax for its residents who are 18 and older and have earn- ings. Before the modification, residents who work in munici- palities that have an income tax were eligible for a tax credit up to 100 percent of the 1.5 percent tax levied by For- est Park. That’s changed now. Council voted to change the credit applied to earned income for residents for tax year 2013. The first year, the credit drops from 100 percent to 75 percent. This is retroac- tive, so the the maximum credit applied to earned income from 2013 will be 1.125 percent of tax- es paid to other municipalities, rather than the former 1.5 per- cent. City council is also allowing for the tax liability due in 2013 to be paid in four installments in 2014-15. Payments are due April 1, 2014; July 31, 2014; Oct. 31, 2014, and Jan. 31, 2015. The second stage of the tax modification would occur Jan. 1, when the maximum tax credit would drop again, to 25 percent of the1.5 percent credit initially offered. This will be collected in 2015. This would mean that the dif- ference between the Forest Park income tax rate of 1.5 per- cent and the new maximum credit of .375 percent would re- sult in a tax liability for resi- dents who are working in other municipalities equal to 1.125 percent of earnings. The change will generate about $1.1million annually. The additional revenue will be used to help cover the cost of opera- tions and programs for the city. Harlita Robinson, city finance director, told council earlier this fall that Forest Park pro- jects a spending deficit in its general fund of $1.2 million, partly because of cuts in local government funds, the elimina- tion of the estate tax and other state funds and partly because of reduced revenue from prop- erty and income taxes due to dropping property values and rising unemployment. The plan approved was not the plan initially discussed by council. At the Nov. 11 work session, Councilwoman Diana Herbe said the city had been working on an initial assumption of 55 percentage of its residents working outside the city, but then learned the correct num- ber is closer to 43 percent. She said using the new number, the plan would not yield enough revenue to provide the long term stability that council had been talking about, even if council dropped the tax credit to zero. Mayor Chuck Johnson said the tax modification passed by council Nov. 18 is not a sustain- able solution. “It’s a stop-gap,” he said. “And residents should be aware the city will likely have to ask for a levy for sustainability un- less the economy drastically improves.” There is already a levy on the horizon. Council has been talking about a levy to support the fire district for months, and council members expect to put that levy on the ballot soon. Council may now begin talking about a levy for operations, as well. “We don’t have a product like P&G,” Johnson said. “We can’t just raise our prices. We have made cuts, and that’s likely to continue. Taxes are the only way council has to generate revenue, and the people have to vote for that.” Councilwoman Sheila Cottle voted against the tax credit modification. She says resi- dents at the public hearings said they didn’t want to change the tax credit. “I heard what they said,” Cottle said. “And I decided to listen to our residents.” Jim Emerson, one of those residents who spoke against a change, said a retroactive tax increase is a low blow. “Never saw that coming,” he said. “And please don't try to soften the blow by telling me I can pay in equal installments. “ Emerson said since the plan changed after the public hear- ings, there should have been public notice and discussion about the amended plan, as well.

MCAULEY HIGH SCHOOL FIRST QUARTER HONOR ROLL

With a high stakes test likethe Ohio Achievement Assess-ment coming up in October,Winton Woods ElementarySchool Principal Kendell Dor-sey is happy for any assistancehe can get to help his third-graders do their best.

That’s why Dorsey was ex-cited about an early morningvisit from Cincinnati BengalVinnie Rey, who came to helpwith tutoring and to encouragethe students to work hard andstay focused. Rey visited theschool as part of Envision Chil-dren’s tutoring program atWWES.

“It’s important to have sometargeted intervention andmeetthe needs of these students,”said Dorsey. “We are gratefulfor this extended day programthrough Envision Children thatprovides our students withbreakfast and then tutoring.”

Sheryl Garner, presidentand founder of Envision Learn-ing Center and Envision Chil-dren, said the 40 third-graderswhocome to school early for tu-toring “come in positively andwork very hard.”

Rey told the students, “Thekey to getting better at some-thing is just being consistent atit. Do you knowwhat consistent

means?”Tristan Miller raised his

hand. “Itmeans tokeep trying,”Miller said.

Reyagreed. “If youkeep try-ing, you’ll see the results downthe road.”

Rey said he’s been tutoringsince age 11, when he made itinto Bay Academy in Brooklyn,NY, and started helping otherstudents get in to the school. “Ihad great parents, coaches andteachers,” he said. “I saw thateducation was important tothem, so I made it important tome.”

He reminded the students,“Look the other person in theeye. Listen to authority. Sit still.Line up. Do your homework.There are people all around uswho are trying to help. The keyis to find those people, takewhat you learn from them, andthen help others.”

Rey is passionate about edu-cation and passionate about hisvolunteer work.

“Giving back is important tome, and tutoring is somethingthat I love todo,” he said, “I loveto learn something and thenteach someone else how to do it.Whatever I cando tohelp some-one else, that’s what it’s allabout.”

PRESS PREPSHIGHLIGHTS

By Tom [email protected]

The basketballs have beenrolled out for the 2013-14 boysseason and here is a preview ofhow teams in the Hilltop Presscoverage area are shaping up:

AikenAfter the graduation of Aus-

tinGrimesandDemarcusCook,CoreyCavinsreturnsastheFal-cons’ leading scorer after aver-aging 7.6 points per game lastseason.

Sophomore KameronMooreis one of the area’s top talentedbigmenat6-foot-6.AikencoachLeon Ellison has reportedMoore is already receiving in-terest from Xavier and WestVirginia universities.

Moore only averaged 3.3pointspergame last season, butwas second in the CincinnatiMetro Athletic Conferencewith2.9blockpergameandwasfourth after pulling downmorethan nine rebounds a game.

Look for junior guard Da-mon Harris to run the offensefor Ellison.

TheFalcons - rankedNo. 7 inThe Enquirer Divisions II-IVpreseason area coaches’ poll -start the seasonNov. 29athomeagainst Taft.

FinneytownCoach Adam Griggs will

have to find a way to replacethree of his top four scorersfrom last year in BradleyNelms, Derrick Hudson andEmmanuel Martin.

The team’s leading scorer at16.2 points per game in BallyButler is back, along with fel-low senior Brad Steimle andBally’s younger brother Bryce.

“We did graduate a lot, but Ikept six-to-seven guys on (ju-nior varsity) last year and pur-posely didn’t bring them up,”Griggssaid. “Ididn’twant themto split time and I wanted themto develop together over a fullseason.”

A few of those guys makingthe leap to varsity this seasonare juniorCharliePayne, juniorLuke Steimle and senior guardBrylinMoore.

“I think our team chemistryis good so far,” the coach said.“Our attitudes and work ethichave been good so far.”

Trying to replace theschool’s all-time leading re-bounder in Nelms isn’t going tobe easy, but Griggs will restupon his leaders to show thenewcomers the way.

“I’mreallycountingonBallyandBrad, and to a lesser extentBryce, to kind of show the guysthe way,” he said. “We will beplaying at a faster pace so theguysdon’t have time to focusonthe mistakes because with ourpace andquality of opponents itcan turn into three or four mis-takes real quickly.”

The Wildcats start the sea-son at home against Roger Ba-con Nov. 29.

Gamble MontessoriJim Martin takes over as

head coach of the Gators whoare coming off a 12-10 seasonwhere they placed third (8-4) inthe Ohio Valley AthleticLeague.

Leading scorer ChristopherMartinwas one of sevenGatorswho graduated after last sea-son, but second-leading scorerKenney Mil is back after post-ing13.2 points and 5.1 reboundsa game last season.

Keepyour eyes on freshmanAnfernee Lipscomb. The 5-

foot-9 point guard may be thefastest player in the OVAL andhe will extremely difficult to

defend.Junior Justin League will

provide a presence in the mid-

dle with his 6-foot-0 frame, butwill need to improve offensive-ly after posting just two pointsand four rebounds a game lastseason.

Junior guard DeVontae Car-gile will be another scoring op-tion after putting up nearly sixpoints a game his sophomoreseason.

“(We)will bequickandsmallbut will work extremely hard,”Martin said. “(The) team hasmany new faces and very fewwho have playedminutes at thevarsity level. (We) should be (a)good shooting and penetratingteam and will play tough de-fense. (Our) weakness is sizeand rebounding.”

The Gators open up playDec. 2 at home against SCPA.

La SalleComing off a regional final

appearance last season, theLancers and coach Dan Flem-ing will have to overcome whatis likely a season-ending injuryto their best player in seniorguard Jeff Larkin if they hopeto make another deep postsea-son run.

Larkin –who averagedmorethan17pointspergamelastsea-son - had surgery to repair atorn ACLAug. 20 after injuringhimself in a preseason footballpractice.

On top of that, second-lead-ing scorerConnorSpeedgradu-ated, which leaves the Lancerswith nobody on the current ros-ter that averagedmore than 6.1points per game last season.

LOCKLAND — At firstglance, the final score ofthe Loveland-MountHealthy Division II, Re-gion 6 final game at Lock-land Roettger Stadiummight have been predict-able. It was anything but.

The Owls led the top-seeded Tigers 28-14 with5:40 toplay inthegamebe-fore Loveland ran-off 21straight points to securethe 35-28 victory Nov. 22.

“They took the (mo-mentum) and they neverlet it go,” Mount Healthycoach Arvie Crouch said.“We had some turnovers;we didn’t take care of theball and that will get youbeat every time in a gamelike this.”

Lovelandcut the leadto28-21after aLukeWaddell10-yard touchdown run.On the Owls’ next posses-sion quarterback DavidMontgomery was pres-suredandhispassattemptwas intercepted. Twoplays later Gunner Gam-bill punched it in from ayardoutand thescorewastied at 28with 3:49 to play.

Mt.Healthy looked likethey might grab a latelead, but senior Tyree El-

liott – who was in at quar-terback for the injuredDavid Montgomery –coughed up the ball at theTiger 19 and Lovelandlinebacker Mike Weberscoopeditupandreturnedit 81 yards for the game-winning touchdown with1:16 left in the contest.

“I’m proud of myboys,” Crouch said. “Theyplayed their (butts) off,but hats off to Loveland.They did an outstandingjob of coming back andwinning that game.”

The loss signals theendof the high school footballcareer’s for 18 seniors onthe Mt. Healthy roster.While not all of them con-tributed like an Elliot orthe Lackey brothers – Jor-

dan and Justin – the entiregroup played a key part inthe Owls going 20-4 overthe past two seasons andbringing home back-to-back Southwest Ohio Con-ference championships.

“These guys, it’s hardto say goodbye,” Crouchsaid of his seniors. “Theyare some incredible play-ers, but you know theyhelped us build the pyra-mid and we’re going tokeep climbing.”

The Owls (11-2) playedwith some added motiva-tion after the death of for-mer football and trackstar Vince Turnage. The2012Mt.Healthygradwasgunned down and killed ina home invasion of hismother’s house Nov. 17.

Therewas amoment ofsilence held in Turnage’shonor before the start ofthesecondquarterandtheplayers wore a sticker ontheirhelmets thatsaid“V”alongwith “85,” Turnage’sformer number when heplayed at Mt. Healthy. El-liott donned a No. 85 jer-sey instead of his tradi-tionalNo.10 jersey to hon-or his friend and formerteammate.

“I think itwasmoreofamotivation thing thanany-thing,” Crouch said. “Weplayed our hearts out andit wasn’t anything that af-fected us thought-wise oranything like that. It wastough dealing with thedrama, but we’re going tomiss (Vince); he’s one ofour guys.”

HILLTOPPRESSEditor: Dick Maloney, [email protected], 248-7134

On Nov. 18, Forest ParkCouncil voted to increase taxesfor residents paying taxes toother cities. Since 2007 the cityhad allowed 100 percent creditfor taxes paid elsewhere up toits tax rate of 1.5 percent. Thecredit is now reduced to 75percent for 2013. Yes, this isretroactive. For 2014, the cred-it is further reduced to only 25percent.

Before 2007, the tax ratewas 1 percent with a 50 percentcredit for taxes paid else-where. Most residents whopaid other taxes only paid 0.5percent (1.0 percent x 50 per-cent) to Forest Park. In 2014we will pay 1.125 percent (1.5percent x 25 percent), a hugeincrease.

The cityconvincedenough votersin 2007 to passits tax mod-ification plan,increasing thetax rate to 1.5percent andthe credit to100 percent.This was greatfor residents

working outside the city, manypaying no tax at all to ForestPark if we paid 1.5 percentwhere we worked.

I was a vocal opponent ofthe plan. The city now had torely much more heavily ontaxes from businesses andtheir employees. I predicted

there would be less revenuethan expected. I furtherwarned about the city’s loop-hole, which it is has now used,reducing the credit by a simplevote of council. I warned thatpeople were going to save now,but ultimately pay later. This iswhat we are now facing.

The city recently held pub-lic hearings leading up to this,which weren’t well publicized.Two residents spoke in opposi-tion to the new plan at the firsttwo meetings. A fewmorespoke in opposition at the thirdmeeting. No residents support-ed this new plan.

There was no talk of a retro-active tax increase for 2013until after the hearings. Itappeared suddenly, just a few

days before the law waspassed, on the city’s website.City Manager Hodges wrote tome, “The action that counciltook was actually discussed atseveral meetings open to thepublic prior to the Nov. 18vote.”

None of these were thethree public hearings. Theminutes of the Nov. 11worksession, a week before thevote, do not mention a retro-active tax increase. This wholething was not well publicizedand was slipped in right underour noses. There was no timefor public comment and input.And all of this was done afterexpressed public opposition tothe decrease of the tax creditto far less than it was before

2007.The city says it wants to

improve our “quality of life.”How does taking more of ourmoney do this, especially whenhealth care insurance is sky-rocketing (thanks Obamacare),other taxes are increasing, andinflation continues to eat awayat our wallets?

The city made its bed in2007, it needs to continue to liein it. Speak up, Forest Parktaxpayers. Show up at councilmeetings, let them know weare against their underhandedmethods to ignore what wewant and take more of ourhard earned money from us.

Nov. 20 questionDo you think President Obama will

be able to keep his promise that Amer-icans will be able to keep canceledhealth insurance policies for a year ascompanies and consumers adjust to thenew demands of the health care law.Why or why not?

“If you go back in history, SocialSecurity was established for whenthosereachedretirement therewouldbe some money there for you, not anamount to support you but, to havesomething. This Obama Care is thepoliticians answer to the problemwith SS, the government will decidefor you if you need heart surgery orjust let you die off. There was moneyin SS and the politicians saw all thismoneyandstartedallkindsofwelfareprograms with this money, now thatSS is in trouble this is how your elect-ed officials answer to the problem.

“The hard fact of the matter is ifyou die because you didn’t have theheart surgery then the governmentdoesn’t have to pay out SS to you oryour family! Think about it, doesWashington, D.C. really care aboutyour retirement years?The answer isno! Do they have the same health in-surance you are going to get? No!They will have a separate insurancethan you and I! Think about this whenyou go to vote! If you don’t vote thenshut up!”

J.M.B.

“Can we all stop and take a breathright now? There has been so muchbashing of the president that I don’twant to hear it any more.

“I recognize that the new system isnot working. Many times in my life Ihave experienced a computer pro-gram needing time to actually work.

“I also recognize that many peoplearewaitingtoenroll inhealthcareandthatmanypeoplecannotafford to losethe health care they currently enjoy. Ido believe this situationwill improve,the president’s promise will be keptandwewill all getwhatweneed.Cool-er heads must prevail.”

E.E.C.

“No he won’t be able to keep thatpromise! He never intended to keepit! It was a total lie and he knew it.

“The purpose of Obamacare is amass redistribution of wealth. It hasnothing to dowith health care reform.It has everything to do with govern-ment control and socialist policy.

“Sadly, itmustbeconcededthat thepresident of the United States ofAmerica is an arrogant, narcissistic,bold-faced liar.”

R.W.J.

“‘Keep his promise???’ This lyingcypher is incapable of truth!!!”

J.G.

“Yes, despite all the anti-federalgovernment propaganda and (con-

scious and unconscious) racism to thecontrary, I do believe President Oba-ma will be able to keep this promisefor the year-long coverage extension.He wants to help the poor and unin-sured get affordable healthcare. Af-ter all this time, that should not be sodifficult to understand.”

TRog

“The insurance industry will fig-ure it out. They have a win-win situa-tion no matter what with all that cashavailable and they’ll get plenty ofours.

“I feel sorry for progressives, hav-ing carried their experiment arro-gantly, making promises. Balance isthe key, voters.”

K.P.

“President Obama’s first promisewas ‘AnyAmericanswhowant tokeeptheir current plans will keep them -period!’ It is implied by the Journal’squestion that Obama has failed tokeep that promise. Now you are ask-ing, basically, will Obama be able tokeep his new promise that any Amer-icans who want to keep their currentplans will keep them until next year –if the insurance company allows it.Don’t make me laugh.”

R.V.

Nov. 13 questionSeveralmajor retailersandmallswill

be open for holiday shopping through-out Thanksgiving Day. Is this a goodidea and do you plan to plan to take ad-vantage of the extended hours?Why orwhy not?

“There is noway Iwill do any shop-ping on Thanksgiving Day. I thinkpeopleshouldbeoffandhave the timeto spendwith their families. The own-ers and execs of the big chain storeswon’t be working. Being closed a fewdays during the year won’t bankruptthem. If nobody would shop onThanksgivingthestoreswouldget themessage. But with the big sales goingon I’m sure the stores will be packed.I’m in my 60s and would like to seethings the way they used to be.”

R.E.L.

CH@TROOM

NEXT QUESTIONThe Ohio House has passed a bill whichwould redefine self-defense and cir-cumstances where the use of forcetrumps the duty to retreat to publicsettings, such as stores and streets.Under current law, residents need notretreat before using force if they arelawfully in their homes, vehicles or thevehicle of an immediate family mem-ber. Is this good legislation? Why orwhy not?

Leaders putterwhile city burns

As Mt. Healthy’s epi-demic of home foreclo-sures continues unabat-ed, and the city, swampedby the growing volume ofempty houses, receivesfederal assistance to de-molish deterioratingbuildings, the prospect ofour city governmentmoving ahead with itsplan to build a putt puttgolf coursewith federallysourced Community De-velopment Block Grantfunds becomes more andmore untenable.

Given the seriousnessof our economic woes,and the struggles ofmanyneighbors just to keeptheir homes and pay thebills, to spend a $100,000grant plus the $15,000 de-sign fee out of the city’sbudget on miniature golfand a concrete slab for anamphitheater seems likethe height of callousnessor frivolity. It’s a 21st cen-tury “let them eat cake.”

Perhaps this kind ofproject made some senseduring its planning stagesyears ago, before the realestate bubble burst andthe economy tanked, be-

fore Ohio took away theestate tax, thereby begin-ning the starvation oftownships andmunicipal-ities. We’re in austeritymode now, and any dis-cussion of whether tohave nine or 18 holes ofmini golf just seems jar-ringly wrong.

InmyAir Force days amaxim that floated aboutwas “flexibility is the keyto air power.” Those of usin support roles repeatedit ironically, almost ajoke, as we were not theonesmaking strategic de-cisions. Yet the wisdomstuck with me. It is a

strength, not a weakness,to change one’s course ofaction to match changingtimes.

It would be a gracefulact to decide to put such aproject on hold, to returnthose funds unused to thegranting agency, andwaitfor a better moment,since the funds may notbe redirected to a moreappropriate project. Thatcourse of action by ourpublic servants wouldtruly be a respectableone.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

There is no meal ofthe year that quitecompares to that ofThanksgiving. Asyou’re preparing foryour holiday, if you donot want your dogbumping you at thedinner table, the timeto plan for success isnow.

Remember if a be-havior reoccurs it isbecause it has been rein-forced. So, if you know inadvance that your dog’sbumping at the tablebehavior is very prob-able, here are a fewideas:

You can rearrangewhat happens in the envi-ronment immediatelybefore the behavior is setinto motion to give lessvalue to the bumpingbehavior and more valueto resting. Some sugges-tions include satiating

your dogbefore yousit down byfeedinghim in ad-vance orredirectinghis atten-tion bygiving hima tastysteak bone

to chew on or a foragingtoy that will keep hisattention for awhile, ortaking him for a longwalk prior to the meal.

You can also teachyour dog in advance analternative behavior thatwill produce for him thesame or more value thanwhat he would get if hebumped you at the table –while removing any posi-tive consequences to thebumping behavior.

So, begin by teachingthe alternative behavior

(like sitting or layingdown). Once on cue youcan shape the behaviorfor longer durationsbefore delivering rein-forcement. Then, you cancue him to do the wantedbehavior before you sitdown to a meal and rein-force it. At the sametime, if he begs, you cansimply push your plate into the center of the tableand turn your back tohim while sitting. Prac-tice. Practice. Practice.

Always make thewanted behavior easierand more valuable thanthe unwanted behavior.

NOVEMBER 27, 2013 • HILLTOP PRESS • B3LIFE

I got some unexpectedexercise today. The windwas blowing so hardwhen I hung up theclothes that it literallyblewmost of them off theline right after I put theclothespins on the last ofthe socks. Now I didn’tmind chasing the dish

towelsacross thefield, but itwas a littleembarrass-ing to seemy “un-mention-ables”flyingfreelytoward theroad. My

girlfriend called me laterand said she was drivingby when all this hap-pened. “Made mechuckle,” she said. Iguess it’s what we call acloud with a silver lining.

Giovanna’sgluten-freemeatballs andspaghetti

You know her as Jo-anne Trimpe, author oftwo Holy Chow cook-books, the first of whichis “Holy Chow” and thesecond, new one is “HolyChow Gluten Free.” Youmay recognize her as atelevision personalityand personal chef toArchbishop DennisSchnurr. I know her asGiovanna, and we havebecome friends and col-leagues. Giovanna decid-ed to write another cook-book with gluten-freerecipes because Arch-bishop Schnurr is glutenintolerant, yet enjoys

good food.“I was nervous at first.

I didn’t knowmuch aboutgluten intolerance so Iknew I needed to learnhow to cook gluten free,but with all the flavor ofmy original recipes,” shesaid. Well, Giovanna hasnailed it. Her book hasreally good, doable glu-ten-free recipes, fromappetizers like crabcakes that start yourmeal with flair to dinnersthat are entertainmentworthy. Her eggplantParmesan is unbeliev-ably good. There’s a spe-

cial section from friendsand family. I contributedrecipes for the dessertsection. Every recipe hasa photo along with a Biblequote relating to it, soyou are feeding bothbody and soul.

I chose Giovanna’smeatball and spaghettirecipe since that’s a uni-versal favorite and a nicechange from all the tur-key we eat this time ofyear. Check out her web-site http://holychow-book.com/ for informa-tion to purchase the book.Also available at Joseph-

Beth Booksellers inRookwood and sells for$16.95.

Preparemeatballs

11⁄2 pounds of ground chuck1 teaspoon kosher salt1⁄2 teaspoon ground pepper1 egg white11⁄2 tablespoons choppedfresh parsley or 1teaspoon dry

1⁄2 cup soymilk or any typelactose-free milk

11⁄2 cups bread crumbs

Now, this is where it isimportant to use gluten-free bread crumbs. Youcan buy frozen gluten-

free bread and, usingyour food processor,make 11⁄2 cups.

Work the meatballmixture with your hands.Keep hands wet whilerolling meat into abouttwo-inch meatballs. Placemeatballs on a large platewhile you finish. Thisshould yield about 18-20meatballs.

Prepare simple toma-to sauce

Put 1⁄4 cup extra virginolive oil in large saucepan on medium heat. Stirin 1⁄2 cup chopped onionsand cook for 3 minutes.

Add 3 cloves mincedgarlic and cook for only 2or 3 minutes and be care-ful not to burn garlic.Add 2 teaspoons Koshersalt and 1 teaspoon pep-per and simmer for an-other 2 or 3 minutes.Then add two 32 oz. canswhole tomatoes, crushedwith your hands (or freshtomatoes that are equalto the same amount).Cook for 5 minutes. Add 1teaspoon dry basil orabout 8-10 fresh basilleaves. Now add two 15oz. cans tomato sauce andtwo 6 oz. cans tomatopaste. Rinse out cans toget the most of the sauce.Measure out two cups ofthe juice/sauce water andadd that to sauce. Sim-mer on low for 20 to 30minutes for marinarasauce only, or 45 minutesto an hour if you areadding uncooked meat-balls.

Instant vanilla saucefor bread pudding,cake, etc.

OK, trust me on thisone. Instead of makingvanilla sauce with eggs,etc. from scratch, justmelt good quality vanillaice cream slowly until it’sslightly warm. Whatyou’ll wind up with is anot-too-thick sauce that isdelicious on bread pud-ding or drizzled into hotchocolate.

For people with low ormodest incomes – includ-ing many older adults –high energy prices are afrightening prospect aswe head towards coldweather.

Help is availablethroughtheHomeEnergyAssistance Program(HEAP). HEAP is a feder-ally funded program ad-ministered by the OhioDevelopment ServicesAgency’s Office of Com-munity Assistance. It isdesigned to help eligiblelow-income Ohioans meetthe high costs of homeheating.

If you are eligible forassistance, the amount ofyour one-time HEAP ben-efit will depend on: feder-al funding levels; howmany people live withyou; total household in-come (ex: $20,108 max in-come for single house-holds, or $27,143 for cou-ples); and the primary

fuel you use to heat yourhome. In most cases, theone-time benefit is ap-plied as a credit on yourenergy bill by your utilitycompany (or fuel vendor).

How to applyApplications are avail-

able online atdevelopment.ohio.govand through a number ofcommunity organiza-tions, including Commu-nity Action Agencies andArea Agencies on Aging(AAA). Council on Agingof Southwestern Ohio(COA)(www.help4seniors.org)is the AAA for Butler,Clermont, Clinton,Hamil-ton and Warren counties.Applications may be sub-mitted anytime from nowthrough April.

Understanding eligi-bility requirements andcompleting benefit appli-cations can be challeng-ing formany older adults.

Council on Aging can pro-vide information and as-sistance to seniors whowish to apply for the pro-gram. In-home help withHEAP applications mayalso available for olderadults who are home-bound and disabled. Lastyear, COAand area seniorcenters provided infor-mation or assistance withHEAP applications tomore than 2,600 older anddisabled adults in south-west Ohio.

Seniorswhowish to ap-ply for the programshould call one of thenumbers below, depend-ing on where they live:
