    Confronting a challenging year together. 2020 ANNUAL REPORT 2 • Summit County Public Health Summit County Public Health • 3 Message from the Health Commissioner 2020: A Pandemic Year to Remember When I began to review the last year, I could not help but harken back to the joys we had in 2019. We had paid off the building debt and were reaccredited. BOARD OF HEALTH We were planning for a Gala 100th Year Celebration honoring 100 years of public health and preparing to increase the fund balance for events such as a President pandemic. The completion of our sewer project meant our plumbing problems Roberta DePompei, PhD would soon be over. We were excited to look closely at our long-term financial (Stow) stability and our grant/general revenue ratio. With our debt resolved, this President Pro Tempore was the year we were going to streamline programs and address areas of M. Dominic Cugini, BB, BA community need based on the Community Health Improvement Plan. (General Health District) Housing and all social determinants were to be further developed in our Patricia Billow, BS, JD new Strategic Plan. This was our year! It was going to be good! (Tallmadge) With that said, I’m not sure how to explain 2020. You could not have written James R. Boex, MBA, PhD a more bizarre novel if you tried. It was a year with many challenges along the (Hudson) way and many moments when truth was stranger than fiction. In spite of it all, Todd Burdette, BS, MBA we received many acts of kindness and monumental support from the Summit (Licensing Council) County Board of Health board members, communities and partners.

  • Tolliver Calls Game-Winning Rebound in Hawks Win Over Bucks
    Tolliver calls game-winning rebound in Hawks win over Bucks By Chris Vivlamore The Atlanta Journal-Constitution MILWAUKEE — Anthony Tolliver called it. Not a game-winning shot but a game-winning rebound. Tolliver’s rebound of a missed free throw by teammate Dahntay Jones with 22.4 seconds remaining preserved the Hawks’ 104-99 come-from-behind victory over the Bucks Sunday afternoon. With a one-point lead, 100-99 after Jones’ first free throw, Tolliver looked at Jeff Teague and told his teammate a missed shot would be all his. “Yeah, I told him right before it happened, ‘I am going to get this rebound,’” Tolliver said. “I just tried to analyze the situation. I knew he has missed a few free throws earlier so I just wanted to be aggressive toward the rebound. I saw an opportunity. They didn’t box me out and I jumped and it came to me.” Tolliver called timeout after gathering the loose ball forcing the Bucks to foul. Al Horford and Teague each made two free throws in the closing seconds for the final margin. The rebound may not have been the biggest play of the game by Tolliver. He set up Jones’ free throws with a steal seconds earlier. With the game tied at 99-99 after the Hawks erased a five- point deficit with 2:45 remaining and a Bradley Center crowd cheering wildly, Tolliver tipped a pass intended for J.J. Redick that Jones gathered before being fouled. “I was face guarding, being up, on J.J. Redick,” Tolliver said.
