September 11th invokes many memories to many people. The fire department has received many gifts (cookies,cakes,etc.) because people feel the need to thank us for our service. We very much appreciate those gestures and especially the kind thoughts that accompany them. The department has begun a practice of having the Assistant Chiefs, the EMS Coordinator and Fire Prevention fill out internal monthly reports. Additionally, new employees are evaluated quarterly throughout their probationary period. Captain Ganoe and Captain Rhodes are taking Fire Officer 1 School at Tri-C College. This is an on-line course and is the beginning on an effort to provide Officer Training to our officers. Training of this type was discontinued in 1982. As funds are available, we will invest in educating our officers. It is desirable to train them all to Fire Officer 1, Fire & EMS Instructor and possibly Fire Inspector. This will take years to accomplish. POLICE: Arrests: Total Adult Arrests 53; Total Juvenile Arrests 6; Summons/Citations Issued 23.

The CD Department completed and submitted to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the City’s annual performance report for the FY2007 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program Year which ended June 30. FY2008 CDBG funded are now underway. The contract was awarded for target area street improvements. Sub-recipient agreements with local social service agencies are also being prepared. As part of the recently passed Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008. Congress has appropriated additional HUD funding for a new Neighborhood Strategy Program which will provide funding to local communities for dealing with foreclosed and abandoned. However, HUD set a minimum funding level of $2 million per community and Massillon did not qualify for a direct grant. Instead, the City will be seeking funding allocated the State of Ohio for this program. These funds can be used for the following activities: 1) purchase & rehabilitation of foreclosed homes; 2) establishment of land banks; 3) demolition of blighted structures; and, 4) redevelopment of vacant or demolished properties. 2. The CD Department continued to work on the Shearer’s Food project. The company will be constructing a new 197,000 square foot building on a 30 acre site in NeoCom Industrial Park. The company has applied for tax incentives under the Enterprise Zone Program to assist this development. 3.

It was necessary to provide information to numerous tenants and landlords regarding their rights. Several people were referred to Community Legal Aid Services, Inc. for legal advice or other agencies for homeless prevention or financial assistance. This office continues to monitor questionable advertisements listed in the classified section of the local newspaper for possible discrimination. There is currently one housing discrimination complaint filed with the Ohio Civil Rights Commission. I participated in the Community Building Partnership (CBP) of Stark County Operating Committee meeting. During this quarterly session, we discussed the Director’s report, resource development update, 2008 budget report, 2009 CBP Plan and the updated program results. We also discussed the possibility of broadening CBP’s scope of services. I attended an Ohio Housing Financing Agency OHFA First Time Home Buyers Program. Some of the participants of the City’s Home Buyers Assistance Program utilize this program. This information helps me understand the program better. I attended the Walnut Hills Residents Association meeting. Activities for the organization were discussed which included plans for a Halloween party in October. Also, canned goods are being accepted in order to make food baskets for the holidays. I participated in the Stark County Community Action Agency’s (SCCAA) Board meeting.

This office tries to stay informed about programs and resources to be able to make appropriate referrals. I participated in the Western Stark Medical Clinic Board of Directors meeting. The various committees reported. Visits to the Clinic are increasing. Things are progressing well since the necessary reorganization. A need for financial support is an issue for this, as well as, most non-profit organizations. I participated in the AHEAD Foundation Board meeting. The Director gave financial updates and reported on other activities for the month which included the Birdies for charity golf outing. The need to raise additional funds was a topic of discussion at this meeting also. I participated in the quarterly Stark County FEMA Board meeting. All of the agencies have reported that all funds have been expended. There was a discussion about the Urban League’s office being presently closed due to a lack of funds for administration. Urban League administered emergency housing FEMA funds for Massillon residents. If the agency is still closed next year, Massillon Salvation Army will probably administer those funds. The Fair Housing Board met. A Fair Housing complaint filed with the Ohio Civil Rights Commission regarding handicap discrimination was discussed. Also discussed at the meeting were the results of the Fair Housing/Tenant/Landlord Law Seminar conducted during Fair Housing month, insurance testing plans and the foreclosure issue. I participated in a Family Economic Success (FES) coalition meeting. Budget reports and plans for the 2008 tax season were discussed. FES is preparing for next year’s tax season while providing other services in the community. One application was approved to participate in the Home Buyer’s Assistance Program.
