  • History/Herstory of Cliff and Marilyn Long 1957
    History/herstory of Cliff and Marilyn Long 1957--got engaged in April, Marilyn worked at Research Hospital in Galesburg after completing 3 semesters at U of Ill. in Champaign-Urbana in January, went to Ill. Research Hospital in April and, after one quarter, graduated with a BSN in June. When Cliff finished school in June, he drove to New London, Ct. where he worked at Electric Boat in Groton for the summer. Marilyn flew to LaGuardia a few days after graduation. She worked at Lawrence Memorial Hospital that summer & lived in the nurse's residence there. Leaving Connecticut on August 31, we drove to Chicago, stopped briefly (Cliff's folks had unexpected visitors--2 couples from Canada) & continued on to Delong, stopping to visit Diane and four in Laura where they were visiting Al's folks. There was a community shower and one given by Diane & Louise in the few days before our wedding on Sept. 7. Bob Lawson sang, Louise Cline played the violin, Arla Peck played the organ (Marilyn was flower girl at her wedding the same day many years earlier). Tom Lisle and Rog Hawkins were ushers, Rich Oberg best man. Pat Horan & Nancy Leigh were bridesmaids & Diane Noland matron of honor. The reception was held in the church basement--punch, cake, nuts & mints. The Ozarks was our honeymoon destination & the AAA motel we'd chosen to stay in didn't live up to its publicity so we moved! Since it was past Labor Day, things were much quieter there than earlier. We moved into the 2nd story of a house on Park St.

  • 1 Westside Corridor Questions and Answers
    Westside Corridor Questions and Answers BACKGROUND 1. Why is this property being purchased now? There are several reasons. Efforts have been underway by a group of partners to purchase the corridor since 2003. CSX has abandoned the property because it is not needed for their operations and has agreed to sell it. There has been a long period of negotiation and appraisal to get to this agreement. Funds are available now that are specifically allocated for the purchase. Preservation of the property for public use is a priority of the TMACOG long range transportation plan. 2. Who are the consortium members involved in this project? The Trust for Public Land Wood County Park District Metroparks of the Toledo Area Wood County Port Authority University of Toledo Toledo Metropolitan Area Council City of Toledo of Governments (TMACOG) COST 3. What is the cost of the property? $6,494,000 4. When will the purchase be complete? We expect the purchase of the right-of-way to be completed by July of this year. 5. How was the cost established? An appraisal was completed by Continental Appraisal Company, an ODOT-qualified firm that established a fair market value for the property. 6. How can we justify spending money on a rail trail when our area has so many pressing financial problems? A combination of federal and local transportation funds was originally dedicated in 2005 for this project. No additional local money will be needed to acquire the property. No other essential transportation projects in our region will be affected. 7. Since federal funds will be used, is there a local match? Yes.

This research area was considered to be adequate since it would not only identify previously known resources within the project area (Le. where the alignment is drawn) but would also provide infonuation regarding .. the kinds ofphysiographic situations where sites have been previously recorded. This type of infonuation is helpful to predict the likelihood ofsites within the project area and define areas which might be considered culturally sensitive. In addition, some idea of the potential site significance can be gained in this slightly broader study. Such data is useful in developing field - research strategies and detenuining the adequacy of field data once it is amassed. Site Data/Site Interpretation The tenu site as used in this report represents a discrete area ofhabitation or any previously reported isolated artifact or lithic array. Site boundaries were taken from manuscript site fonus and by their absolute placement based on available topographic mapping. The .. relationship ofthese artifact assemblages to areas conducive to habitation was also considered. It is assumed genuine habitations focused on specific, if not predictable, environmental or geomorphological areas. - Habitat infonuation has been recorded on most site fonus.

A report was prepared by the Institute for Child & Family Policy, Bowling Green State University in 2008 which provided a framework for developing a final plan. It is upon this body of work that a group of stakeholders in Wood County began discussions and started the planning process that results in the completion of a Coordinated Plan. The original entity that commissioned the 2008 work by the Institute was Children’s Resource Center, and that organization is included within the stakeholder committee that met several times in 2013 and 2014 to shape this plan.
