The

state's
department· on Monday
pulled back on a plan to
greatly increase fees on
truck s that carry oversize
loads, the third issue in a
week in which Gov. Ted
Strickland has tried to balance Ohio 's economy with
other interests.
The state pulled the
increase so that officials
could further study whether·
the proposed fees balance
the interests of businesses
with the upkeep of the
state's roads. It was a victory for businesses upset by
other recent news Strickland
has delivered to them.
Strickland, a Democrat,
said last week he was
. unable to broker a compromise to keep a proposal
mandating seven paid sick
days each year for many
Ohio workers off the
November ballot.
Word then leaked that
Strickland is working to
cl;arify when union-scale
prevailing wages must be
paid on construction projects using a portion of state
money. The governor 's
positions are under heightened scrutiny, particularly
with Republican s, because
of the challenges facing
Ohio's economy.

Sizemore joins 30-30 club in victory
DETROIT (AP) - . Grady
Sizemore trotted around the ·
bases and stepped back into
the dugout ·as if hi s leadoff
homer were no big deaL
lust another day at the
ballpark for Sizemore. Even
after achieving something
only one other Cleveland
player has ever done.
Sizemore hit two home
runs· to join the 30-30 club
and Franklin Gutierrez had a
lOth-inning solo shot to help
the Cleveland Indians win
their eighth straight, 4-3
over the . Detroit Tigers on
Monday night.
Sizemore homered on the
game's second pitch and
became the second Indians
player to have at least 30
homers and 30 stolen bases
in a season.
"He's unbelievable," manager Eric Wedge said of the
three-time All-Star. "You
wouldn't know if it was his
first or his 30th. In a lowscoring ballgame, he set the
tone. That's what he does.
He does it from a spot in the
order thai can give us a lot of
energy.''
-' Joe Carter also accomplished the feat with
Cleveland
in
1987.
Sizemore is the 14th
American League player to
join the 30-30 club, and first
since Alfonso Soriano did it
(or Texas in 2005 .
• Sizemore, who has 34
steals, added his 31st homer
in his next at-bat.
"It's exciting when we' re
playing well like we are,"
Sizemore said. "We're finding ways to win right now
~nd that's what. you Want."
With more than a month
left in the season, he has a
chance to become the fifth
' major leaguer to join the 4040 club - not that he's
obsessed with getting there.
"I don't try 'to hit homers.

the gap and in the center of
the field ," he said. "I've got

The

state's
department· on Monday
pulled back on a plan to
greatly increase fees on
truck s that carry oversize
loads, the third issue in a
week in which Gov. Ted
Strickland has tried to balance Ohio 's economy with
other interests.
The state pulled the
increase so that officials
could further study whether·
the proposed fees balance
the interests of businesses
with the upkeep of the
state's roads. It was a victory for businesses upset by
other recent news Strickland
has delivered to them.
Strickland, a Democrat,
said last week he was
. unable to broker a compromise to keep a proposal
mandating seven paid sick
days each year for many
Ohio workers off the
November ballot.
Word then leaked that
Strickland is working to
cl;arify when union-scale
prevailing wages must be
paid on construction projects using a portion of state
money. The governor 's
positions are under heightened scrutiny, particularly
with Republican s, because
of the challenges facing
Ohio's economy.

Sizemore joins 30-30 club in victory
DETROIT (AP) - . Grady
Sizemore trotted around the ·
bases and stepped back into
the dugout ·as if hi s leadoff
homer were no big deaL
lust another day at the
ballpark for Sizemore. Even
after achieving something
only one other Cleveland
player has ever done.
Sizemore hit two home
runs· to join the 30-30 club
and Franklin Gutierrez had a
lOth-inning solo shot to help
the Cleveland Indians win
their eighth straight, 4-3
over the . Detroit Tigers on
Monday night.
Sizemore homered on the
game's second pitch and
became the second Indians
player to have at least 30
homers and 30 stolen bases
in a season.
"He's unbelievable," manager Eric Wedge said of the
three-time All-Star. "You
wouldn't know if it was his
first or his 30th. In a lowscoring ballgame, he set the
tone. That's what he does.
He does it from a spot in the
order thai can give us a lot of
energy.''
-' Joe Carter also accomplished the feat with
Cleveland
in
1987.
Sizemore is the 14th
American League player to
join the 30-30 club, and first
since Alfonso Soriano did it
(or Texas in 2005 .
• Sizemore, who has 34
steals, added his 31st homer
in his next at-bat.
"It's exciting when we' re
playing well like we are,"
Sizemore said. "We're finding ways to win right now
~nd that's what. you Want."
With more than a month
left in the season, he has a
chance to become the fifth
' major leaguer to join the 4040 club - not that he's
obsessed with getting there.
"I don't try 'to hit homers.
ltry to just keep the ball in
the gap and in the center of
the field ," he said. "I've got

MIDDLEPORT - The late Village
Councilman Ferman E. Moore has
been honored as the namesake of a
park in his hometown of Middleport.
Middleport's recreation committee
has been working to improve facilities
at the old Middleport Elementary
School playground on Beech Street.
The new park will be known as
Ferman E. Moore Memorial Park.
Jim and Vickie Taylor donated funds
for a new sign at ·the park, which is
now in place. The park is already getting a lot of use, accor.ding to the
Taylors, who operate the Old Glory
Auction House from a section of the

The playground is popular with children in the neighborhood, as well as
those who travel to get there. The

Middleport's
building
inspector said he is dealing
with 15 properties with
violations of either build·
ing codes or flood plain
regulations.
Randall Mullins told village
counci I Monday
evening those properties are
in various stages of the
inspection and enforcement
process. Owners of some of
the properties have been
sent notices requiring them
to bring their buildings up
to code, while other owners
have been cited to court or
appeared il) court.
:·overall, the process is
going very well ," Mullins
said. "'Violations are bemg
cleared up. People are
starting to learn they are in
a tlood plain and they
can't just do what they
want to. "
Mullins said some properties present problem s due to
owners who live out of
town and, therefore, more
difficult to serve with
notices.
"We are making headway.
hut we still have a long way
to go.'· Mullins said.
Mullins saiil at least one
property owner in violation
has appeared in court and
paid a fine , but has not
repaired his property.
"In those instances when
a building owner is cited to
court and fined, he still mu·.t
get the necessary bui !ding
permits, make the repairs
imJ have the property
inspected," Mullins said.
Mayor Michael Gerlach
said more warrants are now
being served on owners of
properties in violation, in
preparation for the next
Mayor's Court date.
Mullins said he anticipate s conde mnation of
four more home s. A build·
ing on Coal Street. damaged in a J~ly fire d~­
town , was condemned
shortly after the blaze.
Mullins ha s also condemned houses at 739
·South Third Ave., 860 ·
Logan St., and 55 Custer
St., and an outbuilding at
126.2 I /2 Powell Street.
. Gerlach told council
members Monday that
building owners, as they
become •more familiar with
the inspection program. are
also becoming more compliant with the re~ulations .
and more cooperative.
