"downscale" seafood...
- Lowbar Feb 14, 2007 05:13 AM
[edit: should have included IN DC/NOVA" in the title, this isn't really an issue back home in Baltimore]
I've been back in this area for almost 3 years now, and still don't know of any great "downscale" seafood joints in the immediate DC vicinity. Living in San Diego and Eastern NC, there were multiple seafood markets (either standalone or multiple-vendor variety, some better than others) which, in addition to selling outstanding fresh raw seafood for home and restaurant use, also offered various things on a carry-out or eat-outside-at-a-picnic-table basis in excellent sandwiches, steamed or fried to perfection, raw, etc as appropriate. In DC and the immediate vicinity, I only know of Maine Ave, which has been a mixed experience for me (maybe I'm ordering badly or from the wrong people), and America Seafood in Arlington. Are there other places of this ilk I need to be trying, NoVA preferred now that I'm out in Fairfax?
That's one of my complaints, too. In Pittsburgh--a lot farther inland--you can get great fish sandwiches, fried clams, etc. at Wholey's or Benkowitz's in The Strip. (My favorite place for fish sandwiches, though, is a VFW Hall in Cannonsburg, Pa. where they serve freshly fried fish sandwiches every Friday.)
But in the DC area? Haven't found anything comparable. Is there some little neighborhood place, or maybe something at Eastern or Capitol Markets?
re: Gonzocook
Wholey's is indistinguishable from a slice of heaven; but, then, The Strip is the center of the Universe, in my opinion. What a stunningly great place. The "Capitol City Market" in DC -- on Florida Ave in NE -- is really great, too, but it ain't The Strip.
Eastern Market has a very nice seafood lunch counter, which I recommend. Birch Beer and a crabcake sammy? Yum.
But, really, what you want is Crisfield Seafood Restaurant right on the line between Silver Spring and DC. It's more Old School than "downscale", but it is cheap and unpretentious and good.
re: KendallClark
Crisfield's is good and unpretentious, but definitely not cheap.
re: Mister Big
Well, I guess we all have different meanings of "cheap"... But yr right, it's not cheap in any absolute sense. I guess I just meant "cheaper than most places I usually eat out"...
Not too close to you, but there used to be a market that got some attention on this board in Arlington, on Glebe just south of 395, right before Glebe splits two ways. It's on the west side of the road. Not sure if they served anything to eat right there, though.
In addition to the north as you mentioned, heading south yields more of these as well, including my fave, Thompson's Seafood Corner on Rt5.
re: Dennis S
Sounds like M Slavin & Sons. I don't think they have any prepared, carryout dishes.
Tell me more about Thompson's.
re: Gonzocook
Thompsons is on Rt 5, a few miles past Hugesville (on your right) in Charlotte Hall is Thompson's Seafood and corner market. No seats, only a bench across the parking lot. Super dive bar/liquor store attached with a drive through!
I got a soft shell sandwich in season with two crabs on it for $8.95 a couple of years ago. They sell great crab cakes to cook at home - forget if they serve them there. On a Saturday from Reston it takes only a bit more than an hour to get there, barring accidents on the road.
The post that tipped me off:
fwiw, here's my recap after that particular trip:
Seriously, I've had better seafood at decent prices back when I lived in Dayton, Ohio. Here's a plug for the Shuckin' Shack in Dayton if you're ever out there.
Market Lunch in Eastern Market comes to mind, for a fried-fish or crabcake or fried-oyster or soft-shell-crab sandwich -- and you can buy fresh seafood 20 feet away at the Glasgow brothers' counter.
Lowbar, maybe you're looking at this from the wrong perspective. Maybe what you call "downscale" is the normal, local seafood tradition, like what you had in your native Baltimore, where it's still easy to find. It's easier in the eastern Washington suburbs, out Central Avenue, down Rt.5, out 50 toward Annapolis, up toward Baltimore and east of I-95 in southern Virginia. Those areas still have "natives," while much of the rest of the Metro area has seen enormous growth over the past 50 years from immigrants from the rest of the US and foreign countries. How many native Washingtonians do you know out in Fairfax?
When the new population wants fish, they want salmon, tuna, mahi-mahi, non-fishy-fish and could you broil that please because I'm on a diet? Local fish rarely appear on menus at area restaurants any more, except for an occasional rockfish or shad roe. The traditional waterman's crabcake has turned into a pile of backfin, very different from its roots. Even the lovely things like Crabmeat Norfolk and oyster stew aren't offered. Why not? Because this isn't a local crowd like in Charm City or Colonial Beach.
There really aren't that many "upscale" places statistically but they get more notice in food columns and on CH. There's a lot more seafood joints, carryouts and crabhouses serving fried catfish and oysters, they just can't afford the downtown real estate and fancy decor. Hard to figure out why when some of the entrées are $20 to $25. The locals who eat their food just aren't in downtown DC. and maybe they don't want the fancy settings.
A lot of great seafood dishes started off as poor fisherman's food - cioppino, gumbo, bouillabaisse, chowder, bourride, lobster - before things got expensive and went fancy. Shrimp and grits was made with tiny shrimp not those monsters they use at Vidalia. They have to serve Frito Misto in DC because a Fried Seafood Platter is declassé. It's two different seafood worlds.
So, Lowbar, go East and North and South. Go toward the Bay and the Northern Neck.
I can't find a decent seafood platter in DC and I think that's a real crying shame. When I have out-of-town guests and they want a sit-down place for good local seafood, I'm stuck. I cook it at home.
re: MakingSense
Yeah, I certainly know plenty of places of the type I seek East, North, and to a limited extent South of DC as you suggest (when I lived in DC in the late 90s, I was working for the Smithsonian doing research primarily in Annapolis/Cape St.Claire, south Anne Arundel, and Charles Counties and had some good finds). Unfortunately I can't get to any of those at lunchtime, which is why I was hoping to find someone who has dragged that type of local seafood tradition out of its "natural habitat," like many of the other non-native ethnic and US-regional establishments have at least made a respectable attempt to do. I can understand where a Lake Trout shop would find it difficult to succeed in the 66/267 corridors, but I'd think there would be strong demand for a place that served fresh, simple seafood (sandwiches, fried/broiled/steamed plates, etc) to all the folks in too much of a hurry, perhaps also allowing them to pick up a nice whole or fillet/steak of fish to bring home to cook for dinner later. In many of the other places where I have spent significant time...places like San Diego, Morehead City, Annapolis area, etc., those types of establishments are a given. But as other posters have alluded to here, they can also often be found in locales which are quite landlocked. I was hoping that I might have just not managed to find it yet.
I don't use the term "downscale" as any kind of insult or disrespect to any local seafood traditions. I just didn't know how else to shrink "non- 'sit down' seafood market type of place that serves simply prepared, properly priced fish and shellfish in a very casual/carry-out setting" into one word for a post title. Probably poor word choice, I am often guilty of that when I don't really think about what I'm writing, and these posts are generally sort of a stream-of-consciousness thing for me. There are "downscale" sit-down options in NoVA in Quarterdeck and Capt Pell's, for example, but I haven't found these to be too appealing for seafood options other than steamed crabs (thankful to be able to get those at least).
An aside...to answer your question of many Washingtonians I know in Fairfax...very few, of course...of all the people I know that live in or near the District, only a very small handful actually grew up in DC or even inside the Beltway. That was one of the harder things for me to get used to around here.
re: Lowbar
Lowbar, it's only really a crab house like Pell's, but there is a place out on 50 west of 28 by a few miles. South side of the road. Little shack. They did have shrimp and a few other things last time I was there, but that was a while ago.
re: Dennis S
Dennis: That's BJ's Crabshack. It's still there. We haven't been in a while so I can't give a recent report.
Interestingly, even though the place has that "about to fall over" crab shack look, according to their signage they also offer ceviche! I've gotta give that a try one of these days.
re: Lowbar
Lowbar, are there "downscale seafood" places in the Annapolis/Cape St.Claire area? Or along the Rt. 50 corridor east of, say, Bowie? I pass through the area occasionally but haven't had any tasty fried fish in a long time. Would love to find something cheap, or relatively cheap, and really good. I'd be surprised if anything really cheap is available in the Annapolis area since it was conquered by yuppies about 20 years ago. It would be funny to find a good fish shack around there.
Usually if I'm in that area, I'm visiting my parents, and we usually prefer authentic ethnic food, pref. something Asian, very authentic, and cheap, but Annapolis is very very limited on those fronts. Often we end up at Squisito, but I'm not a big fan of that since I'm not much for Italian. (Although the gelato is pretty good, I admit.) Usually we try to stick around in the D.C. area long enough for dinner, but that's not always possible, what with the long drive back down to Salisbury. (And you'd think there'd be some good cheap seafood in Salisbury, given that it's the Eastern Shore, but not that I know of.) And having a good along-the-way option is nice.
I wonder why local Hispanic immigrants haven't opened ceviche bars like you find in Peru and Central America. Add a few of the good seafood dishes from Yucatan and the western coast of South America. Arroz con camarones. Jaibas. Pulpa. Conchas. Escabeches. Seafood in Latin America is terrific.
Even if there's a limited market for Delmarva-style specialties, those might have a broader appeal.
re: MakingSense
Picante! The Real Taco in Chantilly has some regional (Mexican) seafood dishes on its menu.
re: Bob W
Some places have some seafood.
It just seems that somebody could do well with a restaurant that highlighted the seafood specialties of Latin American coastal areas. Lord knows they have enough coastline! I'd rather have ceviches and snapper with Veracruz sauce than tacos and stuff any day.
Do you remember the old Enriqueta's in Georgetown?
re: MakingSense
did you look at Picante's menu? they have fish with Veracruz sauce, among other things. I tried it years ago, it was quite good.
they also have a fish dish with cascabel and other peppers that might be from the Yucatan, I suspect.
Can't say as I remember Enriquieta's.
re: MakingSense
Both El Sabroso (Arlington) and La Granja d'Oro (Falls Curch) offer ceviche. The former has several variations on it, and the other may as well (I just don't remember).
re: MakingSense
Those places do have ceviche and some fish. Mexican and Salvadoran places near me in the city have a wider variety of seafood offerings than that, but still none of them uses seafood as the main focus. That's really a shame. Maybe some place does in Adams Morgan or Columbia Road.
When you think of the number of people locally who head to Belize, Costa Rica, Peru, Acapulco, Cancun, etc. and enjoy the seafood there, you would think that some places that headlined the seafood, instead of just throwing in a couple of fish dishes, could be really successful. Like a Latin American Pesce or Johnny's Half Shell. Pescada? Juan's Media Concha?
re: MakingSense
I always forget the name of the place in Adam's Morgan, but the one on lower 18th, west side of the street, with outdoor seating features seafood, including having a counter displaying the fish as you walk in. Used to be better, imo, but it's still good.
re: Dennis S
That's Santa Rosa Seafood...I've been there once. Its good, but not AMAZING. The prices are right though...
Seems like it has been pretty much established that there is a dearth of seafood joint in NOVA. At this point I'd settle for a Friday night fish fry. The kind that seem to be everywhere, the kind sponsored by volunteer fire departments, church charities, fraternal organizations, whatever. Do these even exist in NOVA, or are we "too affluent" even for these?
re: ciaohound
Jimmy's in Herndon does a fabulous fish fry on Friday's. Had it last Friday as a matter of fact (sides include slaw and your choice of fries, perogies or kielbasa).
I've been meaning to go back to this place, but there's a Peruvian place near The Tortilla Factory. I think they have ceviche, soups and other seafood along with chicken. The main thing I remember is some of the best salsa I've ever had. I'll try to get there by next week.
re: Dennis S
Lots of Salvadoran places have ceviche -- I know that Abi's, Rancho Miguelano, and Las Delicias (all in Arlington) do. There's a (Peruvian?) seafood place next door to Abi's, on Columbia Pike, but I've never been. I think it's called El Puerto.
American Seafood, on Lee Highway in North Arlington, also makes some prepared foods. I haven't eaten there in many years, but I heard that it's still good.
re: Chris H.
El Puerto is the name of the Peruvian place next to Abi's. On weekend nights there's dancing and music that starts around 9pm. I've posted a few times about this place. It's good (or was when I used to live nearby - now a few years). The thing is that they bread and deep fry almost everything which is different from other Peruvian seafood I've had.
re: ciaohound
Ciaohound, I would love a Friday night fish fry. There are a couple of the black churches near me in NE DC that do them and they're great.
Starting them is a different story. People would want to offer alternatives, like baked fish for those who don't eat fried foods and a vegetarian dish so that everyone could participate. Not things that used to even come up at the VFW in days gone by. It's a fund raiser, eat the fish, give us the money, or go eat something else somewhere else.
Maybe restaurants could be successful adding them as Friday specials like they do in Milwaukee, where they are a popular old tradition and a lot of fun.
re: MakingSense
I agree, except if somebody is advertising a "fish fry" and somebody comes around looking for baked fish or zucchini, the answer is "wrong place." Now that I think about it, I don't ever remember seeing a sign for a "fish bake," though I have seen them for a "fish boil." Wisconsin I think.
re: ciaohound
Fish boils are a NE Wisc. tradition, sort of a Viking ritual. The fish is boiled in a kettle with potatoes and set on fire with kerosene.
Around Milwaukee and Madison, fish fries are more common. Usually with Packers schedules hanging on the walls.
No baked fish. Serious good food and beer up there.
Lowbar: While I've heard of some of the MD recommendations you've already been given (and can recommend Crisfields though not cheap), I think you've pointed out a huge gap in restaurant offerings in Northern VA. Captain White's Restaurant in Alexandria on Rte. 1 closed recently and it was about the only place that fit the bill, and I thought it had gone down hill in its last years such that it's not much of a loss. Honestly and sadly, many folks have no choice other than Red Lobster for some of this kind of food. I really think that downscale seafood as you put it, aptly I believe, has a pretty broad appeal and there is room in NoVa for local competition for Red Lobster.
As for the lack of locals, I think that's overblown. There are far more local folks around than most people realize. However, I think downscale seafood at reasonable prices and in unpretentious environments has a broader appeal than just to locals.
A couple of things come to mind as I write this: I like the Oyster Po' Boy at Southside 815 in Alexandria can be very good. Also, The Wharf in Old Town is pricier than I'd like but sometimes offers the kind of stuff I think you're looking for.
I'm not sure why anyone is surprised that seafood prices at what few places we know about are higher that we might like. We all see the prices for the raw ingredients at seafood markets - higher than steak. I find it amazing that prices are as reasonable as they are. There's a lot of seafood in a good platter. Maybe a dozen fried oysters or one or two softshells on a sandwich. Checked the price of crabmeat or scallops lately?
The good places put their money into the food not the decor and it's traditionally been this way.
I would be as suspicious of a fancy white tablecloth restaurant with a fried seafood platter as I would be of a similar place with candlelight and barbeque. Just ain't right.
The problem comes when people want seafood cheap and then there's not much choice but Red Lobster, Long John Silver and Filet O Fish. You get what you pay for.
The Crisfield's, Wharfs and Quarterdecks are not downscale. (Maybe Horace and Dickie's is.) They are what they are. Sui generis. Traditional-style restaurants serving a product that has become expensive. I think it's misguided to reestablish the standard by the restaurants that have expropriated a few dishes, gussied them up for a different level of clientele and changed their character in the translation.
re: MakingSense
you're talking about the arlington "quarterdeck"?
It is very possible that someone has already posted this and I missed it, but why don't you try Eamonn's Dublin Chipper in Old Town http://www.eamonnsdublinchipper.com/. In terms of more ethnic "downscale" seafood in NOVA, I like Nam Viet for their sweet and sour salmon or shrimp soup or their heavenly carmelized catfish.
re: sandybeach
There is another place in Fairfax that I go to for fried fish when I am out by Ted Britt Ford. Nothing fancy, but decent fried fish. I think it is Abes on James Stewart Circle, just west of Jermantown Road and south of Rte 50. You order at the counter and sit down to eat, great prices, decent selection of fish.
I like the fact that this thread popped up after a year, I actually printed this out last year and keep it on my computer so I have a list of good seafood places to visit!
Cameron Seafood (http://www.cameronsseafood.com/) in Capital Heights has filled my need for the occasional downscale seafood. Not as good a value as Maine Ave but why would anyone except it to be? Just thinking of the lobster bisque is causing me to drool on my keyboard.
Great steamed crabs, lobster, chowder, crab cakes, shrimp, fresh shucked oysters, etc on Maine, SW. Jessie's will also cook your fish for you, if I'm not mistaken. No place to sit, but you too can master the one-handed shrimp peel standing next to the trash can :) It's wonderful.

Judge: Determining size of BP spill no 'easy task'
The federal judge presiding over a trial arising from the nation's worst offshore oil spill says it could be difficult to determine how much crude spewed into the Gulf of Mexico from BP's busted well in 2010.
U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier noted during a hearing Thursday that there wasn't a "meter" attached to BP's blown-out Macondo well.
Barbier heard testimony earlier this year for the trial's first phase about the possible causes of the deadly disaster. Determining how much oil spilled into the Gulf is a topic for the trial's second phase, set to begin Sept. 16.
BP claims the federal government overestimated the size of the spill. The government estimated more than 200 million gallons spewed from the well, including more than 34 million gallons that were collected.

Drop in ratable base means 2.96-cent tax increase for Ocean City
Written by Claire Lowe Thursday, February 21, 2013 12:43 am
|< Prev
|Next >
OCEAN CITY ŌĆö For the second year in a row, the cityŌĆÖs ratable base has decreased, causing an increase to the cityŌĆÖs tax rate.
ŌĆ£ThatŌĆÖs because of the reassessment projects weŌĆÖve done in the last couple years,ŌĆØ said Frank Donato, city director of finance.
The overall amount of taxes to be collected for the local budget is up 1 percent, but the tax rate in the proposed budget is up eight times that because of the drop in ratables.
The ratable base has shrunk from $12.1 billion to $11.3 billion after completing two years of compliance plans, according to the 2013 budget presented by Donato at the first of two Ocean City Council budget workshops, Feb. 20.
WednesdayŌĆÖs workshop focused on revenues.
In 2011 and 2012, Ocean City completed compliance plans, which are extensive reassessments of certain areas of the island that are the most out of sync with current market values. The 2011 plan focused on the beachfront and bay, while the 2012 plan focused on the interior of the island and commercial properties in the downtown.
In addition to the compliance plan, the ratable base was also decreased due to the more than 800 tax appeals in 2012, resulting in a loss of more than $108.1 million in assessed value. Hurricane Sandy resulted in a $15 million loss. There was, however, $65.69 million in added assessments in 2012.
The proposed 2013 budget includes a local tax levy of $43.6 million, up $440,000, or 1 percent from 2012. This means a local tax rate of 38.56 cents per $100 of assessed value, up 2.96 cents or 8.3 percent from 35.6 cents in 2012.
Donato explained that, in terms of the cityŌĆÖs budget, a penny on the municipal tax rate is equal to a fraction of the ratable base. In 2013, a 1-cent increase to the Ocean City tax rate is equal $1,132,000 in revenue for the city. A tenth of a cent increase to the tax rate is equal to $132,000 in revenue.
For a homeowner, a 1-cent increase to the tax rate is equal to $10 for every $100,000 of assessed value of a property. For a $500,000 property, this yearŌĆÖs 2.96-cent tax increase is an increase of $148 to their annual tax bill, assuming that the value of the property stayed the same from last year.
Donato said that if the ratable base did not change from 2012, there would have only been a .27-cent tax increase in 2013.
In Ocean City, there are several other taxes that a homeowner pays in addition to the municipal tax. In 2012, the total tax rate for an Ocean City property owner was 78.3 cents per $100 of assessed value, or $3,915 in taxes for a $500,000 home. This was made up of a 33.8-cent municipal tax rate, a 3.4-cent library tax rate, an 18.9-cent school tax rate, a 1-cent county open space tax rate and an 18.1-cent county tax rate.
Ocean CityŌĆÖs total municipal budget for 2013 is $70.9 million, up 3.2 percent over the 2012 budget of $68.7 million.
Local revenues are up just over $2.2 million.
ŌĆ£That has somewhat to do with why the bottom line of the budget is up,ŌĆØ Donato said of the local revenues.
As was the case in 2012, Donato said the administration is recommending funding a portion of the budget using $2.5 million of surplus from prior years. The fund balance or surplus is the ŌĆ£taxpayersŌĆÖ savings account,ŌĆØ Donato said. It is replenished through excess and unanticipated revenues and expired and canceled appropriations.
State aid, which in Ocean City comes in the form of energy tax receipts, is budgeted the same as 2012.
ŌĆ£That number will come more into focus when the governor does his State of the State address,ŌĆØ Donato said.
Grants are also budgeted to be the same as 2012. That number will be updated when the budget comes up for a vote, he said.
ŌĆ£Grants can vary. They can vary in the amount of grants you get from one year to the next; and they can obviously vary in dollars,ŌĆØ he said, adding that grants usually show up equal on both sides of the budget, revenue and expenditures. ŌĆ£For the most part, they really donŌĆÖt have an effect on taxation.ŌĆØ
In terms of appropriations, salaries and wages are up 2.31 percent or $634,000 to $28 million; other personnel expenses are down 2.63 percent to $21.2 million. Statutory and deferred charges like pension payments and payment toward the Sandy emergency bond are up 16.17 percent, from $5,646,150 to $6,559,322. The capital improvement fund is down $300,000 from last year to $700,000.
Debt service payments are up to $11 million from $9.7 million.
ŌĆ£We knew that debt service was going to have a little bit of a spike going into this year,ŌĆØ Donato said. ŌĆ£ThereŌĆÖs a revenue offset to that. ThatŌĆÖs going to water that number down.ŌĆØ
Revenue increases in 2013 include: $440,390 in taxation, $600,000 in capital funds, $543,750 in estimated Federal Emergency Management Agency reimbursements from Hurricane Sandy, $465,963 from all other miscellaneous revenue accounts and $400,000 from parking. There is a $200,299 loss of revenue from library taxes.
Several city services generate user fees, adding to what is known as ŌĆ£local revenues.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£It really helps to keep our reliance on taxation as low as possible,ŌĆØ Donato said.
As a budgeting rule, Donato said, a municipality should not budget more revenue for any line item than it collected in the previous year. In terms of parking revenue, Donato said he is breaking the rule.
ŌĆ£I am recommending a $400,000 increase,ŌĆØ he said. ŌĆ£This yearŌĆÖs budget is built upon this yearŌĆÖs recommendation.ŌĆØ
Donato said that due to the cityŌĆÖs success with its electronic parking meter pilot program in the summer of 2012, he is looking to expand the program to the entire boardwalk and beach zone, adding about 800 electronic meters.
ŌĆ£We got a lot of positive feedback from that program last year,ŌĆØ he said, adding that there is relatively no maintenance concern, and the meters are user friendly.
In an effort to pay for the extra fee for the meters, Donato recommended increasing the parking fee in the beach and boardwalk zone to $1.50 an hour. Currently in that zone, it is $1 an hour to park at a meter.
ŌĆ£We feel itŌĆÖs still a good deal relative to parking in a lot,ŌĆØ he said.
Donato said it costs $150,000 to lease the 800 meters for an entire season. He said that with the average car parking for eight hours a day, the parking fee increase could produce about $400,000 to $500,000 in additional revenue. He said that the fee increase ordinance would have to be passed before the budget adoption, or at the same time. The fee ordinance, he said, would need to be sent to the state to back up the proposed revenue increase to the parking line item.
Another large increase to city revenue is $100,000 from the Ocean City Aquatic and Fitness Center.
The revenue from the contract with the Ocean City Free Public Library is down $75,981, as the city renegotiated the terms of the agreement. However, a surplus in the library budget will bring in an extra $400,375. Mayor Jay Gillian said that surplus from the libraryŌĆÖs budget gets funneled back to the city for tax relief. He praised the library for spending conservatively.
ŌĆ£I love that philosophy, because itŌĆÖs all taxpayerŌĆÖs money,ŌĆØ Gillian said. ŌĆ£Nothing better than getting money back.ŌĆØ
Hurricane Sandy cost the city millions of dollars, with the hope of reimbursements in the future. An emergency appropriation at the end of last year at about $3.6 million, which paid for operating expenses associated with Sandy clean up, has to be paid back over the next five years at $725,000 a year.
ŌĆ£We have reason to believe, very much so, that weŌĆÖre going to get reimbursed 75 percent for those expenses by FEMA,ŌĆØ Donato said.
He said he wants council to have that money come out of fund balance in 2013, and then have the reimbursement money go back into fund balance.
ŌĆ£ThatŌĆÖs one of the reason you have fund balance, for emergencies like this,ŌĆØ he said.
ŌĆ£We donŌĆÖt know how that money is going to flow timing-wise from Washington to Trenton to us,ŌĆØ city business administrator Mike Dattilo said.
Donato said that the bond can be paid back faster, which would be beneficial as the less the city has to borrow, the less interest the city has to pay.
Dattilo said that more help is needed in the finance department to keep up with paperwork associated with Sandy.
ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖre going to have to get some additional resources devoted to that,ŌĆØ he said.
ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖre going to do it responsibly,ŌĆØ Gillian added.
ŌĆ£This is not the first time weŌĆÖve been through the FEMA process. WeŌĆÖve never been through one on this scale,ŌĆØ Donato said.
A $9.9 million bond sale by the city in early December also created a spike in debt service, Donato said. He said it resulted in $780,000 in excess debt service, however, the low interest rate from the bond sale represents savings to the taxpayers in the long term.
Donato said that $600,000 from a $1 million premium on the bond sale will be used to offset the debt payments.
ŌĆ£It will still give us some more premium to use in the 2014 budget because that budget didnŌĆÖt anticipate those extra bonds either,ŌĆØ he said.
Donato said the 2013 budget falls under the state-mandated caps, which limit how much towns can increase spending each year.
ŌĆ£We know that we have to live by two caps,ŌĆØ he said, a 2-percent tax levy cap and a 2-percent spending cap.
ŌĆ£We are comfortably underneath both of them,ŌĆØ he said.
ŌĆ£You hear a lot of people saying, ŌĆśGo to the cap, go to the cap,ŌĆÖ but we havenŌĆÖt done that,ŌĆØ Gillian said. ŌĆ£Even with the extra with his hurricane and you know we had Irene last year, too ŌĆ" but IŌĆÖm proud that working together, that weŌĆÖre not going to the cap.
ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖre on the right track of being fiscally responsible,ŌĆØ he said.

The Press Newspaper
The Press Newspaper
To the editor: In a Toledo Blade article dated Oct. 8, Mike Seferian stated that his continued questions about Jeff Brown were not politically motivated. If that is true, then why wasn't Jeff Brown a concern prior to the election or even last year? It's interesting how this topic only became page-one "scandal" material just weeks before the primary election. Mr. Seferian was also quite vocal about a supposed "gag order" on former police chief Gulch, which, in theory, prevented Mr. Gulch from "exposing the truth."
In a subsequent Blade article from Oct. 13, former Chief Gulch stated that Jeff Brown was not investigated for sexual misconduct but rather for harassing phone calls. Mr. Gulch further stated that the harassment investigation was dropped when the accuser did not return calls from the police regarding her complaint.
Yes, Mayor Brown's son has been disciplined for several matters and, as a police officer, we as citizens would prefer he have a spotless record. But Jeff Brown is an adult and his actions, whether real or imagined, are not those of Mayor Brown.
Our daughter was killed in a traffic accident and it was Officer Brown who brought us the tragic news. He was a tremendously caring man to us under the most difficult of circumstances, not only on that awful day, but in subsequent days as well. He continued to follow up with our family to make sure we were OK. I am sure that there are many others who have experienced Officer Brown's humanity as well.
I have been home visiting recently and I have been sickened at the smear campaign that is being orchestrated against Officer Brown. If he has done wrong, he should be held accountable, but the name-calling and attacks are completely unfair to a man who gave so much to me in my darkest hour.
Is this really what Oregon has become? Is this really the best the community can do? I urge everyone in the City of Oregon to remember that people make mistakes and that sometimes the good they have done far outweighs the bad.
One of our present trustees still defends taking insurance reimbursements from your tax dollars when he already receives insurance from his employer. The other trustee who pays absolutely no tax to the township what so ever, has led a child-like campaign against our fiscal officer, Julie Van Nest and new Trustee Joe Kiss for two years. They both have not once tried to work with these two elected officials. It has been two years of total loss. This all takes place simply because their endorsed candidates failed to successfully get in office.
The township needs to head in a better direction now. It is so very important that we elect new leadership at this Nov. 3 election. This election should not be about who your neighbor is or your buddy or even who your relative is. This election should be about who is best qualified to lead and manage along with making sound business decisions. We need 3 people that will think and talk for themselves. Not one guy talking and the other just bobbing his head with approval. There is no doubt if you look at the new candidates you will see that they have far, far more experience in business, education and township residency than our present trustees.
If you like the image that our township has gotten then keep what we got. If you want to improve our situation and image then it is a very clear decision. Please vote for new leadership on Nov. 3. Your vote really does count.
Among the supporters were Mercy Health Partners, Maumee Bay State Park, Collingwood Water, Culligan Water, Cutting Edge Hair Studio, Future Wave – Aveda, Chippewa Golf Club, Cousino's, Bethel United Brethren Church – Elmore; Barry Bagels, Belle Tire, Bennett Management, Bob Evans – Northwood, Flaherty Sales Co., Genoa Chevrolet, Genoa Ford, Holiday Inn Express, Kroger, Miller's New Market, Mr. Emblem, Marsha's Buckeyes, Meijer – Oregon, Party Lite (Peggy Gomez), Pinks Sweet Treats (Barb Pinkelman), Peggy Sears, Red Bull (Buckeye Distribution), Ryan's Barber Shop, Sheri Gentry (USANA), Sonic, Toledo Mud Hens, Toledo Symphony, Tim Horton's, Wal-Mart and William and Luann Reif.
On or before Nov. 3, you will have an opportunity to vote on Issue 4, a .5 mill levy for maintenance and operation of the Riverview Nursing Home. There had been a .5 mill levy in effect for many years, up until its defeat in November of 2008. We, the members of the Riverview Auxiliary, respectfully ask for support for this issue. Your support of Issue 4 will allow for the Riverview Nursing Home to continue to serve its residents and be a facility that the residents of Ottawa County can continue to be very proud.
Please join us in voting yes on Issue 4.
The estimated cost of the new pre-K-8 building is $21,965,139. Ohio School Facilities Commission (OSFC) will fund 29 percent ($6,369,890). The new building will be 108,000 square feet. November is the district's only chance to be guaranteed money from the State. If the issue fails, OSFC will release our funds to another district and Woodmore will not be guaranteed funds, therefore, responsible for the entire cost.
There will be $3,900,000 locally funded initiatives (LFI's) to fund 4 additional classrooms and a Performing Arts Center. These additions are not included in the 108,000 square footage. The total estimated cost would be $25,865,139. The cost will be less if bids come in lower like they have at other schools. Some are receiving bids at 25-45 percent of OSFC's estimate. If that happens, the most commonly chosen option by other districts is upgrading flooring, roofing, and furnishings. Some districts have decided to pay more towards the annual debt so the issue is paid off sooner.
The millage will be 6.97 plus a 0.50 mill maintenance levy required by OSFC. When the issue passes, the board has committed to reducing 1 mill of the current permanent improvement levy. The net effect of the new building will be 6.47 mills. This equates to $198.14 on a house valued at $100,000.
It is difficult to continue asking the community for money, but schools are left with no other choice. Communities around us are building facilities to accommodate the needs of today's education.
Let's not leave Woodmore behind.
I have been a member of the elementary staff for the last 14 years. Every time the weatherman calls for rain, we worry that the first floor/basement will flood. Just to be clear, our basement isn't a storage facility but houses preschool, art, computer and all the second grade classes.
Outside of the flooding issue, our school is just plain old.
The stairs are dangerous due to being worn down in the middle, replaced floor tiles don't fit right and restrooms are inadequate including one floor that has none at all.
The interior electrical wiring is from a different age when chalkboards were the standard means to teach students. Technology is the wave of the future but we find ourselves not being able to provide what our students need to compete in today's world.
Heating is another issue. Every year we waste money because in order to keep some classrooms barely warm other classrooms have windows open to prevent students from sweltering in the heat, even in the heart of winter.
To maintain our building is costing us a lot. To build a new school would also cost money. The question then becomes, do we continue to spend money putting a Band-Aid on a building that will only get worse and cost us more? Or, do we take the state up on it's offer to help pay for a new building that will not only take us far into the 21st century but will also give our students, our children a healthier school environment and a better chance to compete in today's world.
The choice is up to you. Make no mistake, one way or another we will pay the price.
I have been to most area hospitals and I can tell you that every afternoon, you can find people there who have no money and no health insurance, and yet, they are taken care of.
I pointed out to one of my daughters that national health insurance is in use in Canada and Europe and there are many faults with it. There are long waits to get a needed operation. If you are over 72 and need a life-saving operation, they figure that you contribute nothing to society anymore so they give you pain pills and send you home to die.
My daughter shouted at me, "This is not Europe, this is the U. S. of A."
Two weeks ago, I had my regular doctor check-up and my doctor told me that we seniors over the age of 64 will not be eligible to get the swine flu shot. What did you say, daughter?
Social Security is going broke. Medicare is going broke. The post office is going broke. We are in hock up to our ears to the Japanese and Chinese. Can we afford a national health care system? What do you think?
We have a Wild West shoot-out at the Route 66 Bar and there are no police around. Toledo's mayor now wants to shut the bar down because the owner cannot keep his patrons under control. This from a man who runs red lights.
This mayor also said that with concealed carry, there would be shoot-outs on the streets of Toledo. Well, we have shoot-outs, but not by concealed carry people, but by those who would flaunt the law. The government says they will take care of us and so they pass a bunch of laws. But as you can see, the laws are not worth the paper they are printed on.
So when a politician tells you that they will take care of you or that they will fix it, you can be sure what they mean is that they are looking out for themselves.
His beloved government has caused the health care problem, the housing problem, the education problem, the immigration problem.
Pay for your own health care, Al.
As part of the program, they contacted all school board, city council, and mayoral candidates, asking them to respond to questions about key issues. Their answers would be published in a candidate voter's guide to be distributed at the program.
Candidates who did not respond by the deadline were personally contacted by the students via phone to give them a
After she clearly identified herself and the purpose of the call, Mr. Seferian responded, "I'm busy, I don't have time to talk to a high school student" and immediately hung up on her. The instructor noticed the rather stunned look on her face and asked her what had happened, so this was a witnessed event.
It's nice to know that Mr. Seferian doesn't have time for the only public high school in Oregon. Mr. Seferian also seems to have forgotten three key facts: 1) All high school students are future voters. 2) Many senior high school students will be voting for the first time this November. 3) All of the students have parents/caregivers as well as teachers and school administrators, who are potential voters, including this parent.
Be assured Mr. Seferian, your response and lack of concern for students did not go unnoticed.
Many thanks to Kathleen Pollauf, Dennis Walendzak, Sandy Bihn, William Myers, Richard Gabel, Diana Gadus, Carol-Ann Molnar and Jeff Ziviski, who did repond to the students' questions.
Editor's note: Mr. Seferian said at the time he was contacted by the student concerning the questionnaire, he was in the recovery room with his son, who had just had surgery. He said he told the student he had some confusion about the questionnaire – he wasn't sure mayoral candidates needed to submit responses because the students' forum was for school board candidates. He said he also told the student he wasn't sure he could meet the deadline, but the questions and issues raised would be discussed at the upcoming mayoral debate.
Mr. Seferian also said he did not hang up on the student, and speculated that perhaps his cell phone service was interrupted because he was in the hospital. He added that he apologizes if he offended the student and her classmates in any way.
Why only four cities in Ohio?
Why only one company?
Why deprive other companies the same opportunity to do the same?
Does this sound like another big lobby company has promised payoffs to certain people in the state house if this issue passes?
I thought in America all citizens have the same rights – not just people with lobbying power. Why can't anyone in Ohio have the same right to build a casino here? The big boys say no – just certain companies with friends in high places. Do they think we are stupid?
Why not, if gambling is accepted in Ohio, can't we allow all and any business owners to have a couple of slot machines in their places of business? Think about this idea – thousands of owners would benefit from this. The owners all over the state would not only bring in more people, and so much more money than just four casinos. If this were the case, the payoff to state big boys could not take place. We're sure they wouldn't approve of that!!
The small business owners with slot machines in their places of business could payout 60 percent of the profits to the County's Board of Education and the remaining 40% they, the owners, would keep as a profit. That seems fair to me.
What a way to finance the local school systems instead of putting this extreme burden on taxpayers - especially the elderly who have worked all their lives to hopefully have enough monies to sit back and enjoy the remainder of their lives. Why should people who have paid school taxes their whole lives have to take on the same burden that they have done for fifty years or so. Elderly folks who don't have a pension from their workplace are forgotten.
Every employer in America has not been able to furnish a pension to their workers - especially those who run small businesses. Take a look at the past twenty years as pension go. Workers were told to invest their retirement monies in the stock market. Turns out, that was a great idea! How many of us lost most of what we put away for our retirement years. Now what?
"Tax us some more" is the echo coming from our politician friends who are so concerned about our welfare. Small business owners and operators make up the majority of employers in this country. Don't believe this. Look it up on your computer, if you can afford one.
Public TV reported that for every senator and congressman, there are at least ten lobbyists per person in Washington. Shouldn't our government outlaw this activity? Why should our officials be swayed by these groups to promote their wants and needs . No one should be allowed to give senators and congressmen gifts and favors for the sole purpose of obtaining votes to promote any causes. This is an issue that should be declared illegal and a crime. This not only occurs in the federal government but also in the state and local governments. How sad.
"Of the people, by the people, and for the people" – what people?
P.S. I am in favor of casinos in Ohio – especially Toledo – just not the one-sided way they propose!

Miller ParkMilwaukee Brewers
Miller Park is a baseball stadium in Milwaukee, WI and home to the Milwaukee Brewers. The stadium seats approximately 42,000 fans and features a "fan shaped convertible roof" that can open or close in about 10 minutes. The roof also has glass panes that allow sunlight to get through so that natural grass can grow on the field. Because of this unique feature the stadium took over 5 years and $400 million to construct, but has been regarded as the "best ballpark based on value per dollar spent."

I have searched and searched and tried many different options but can not get this to work although I am sure it is possible.
I need to be able to replace a string using a variable as the search and replacing using the matched reference group such as $1
I can search for a variable and I can get the reference to work - but not both at the same time.
The following works great - except it does not preserve the case of "Test" in the string
Code JavaScript:
var q = "test".toLowerCase(); var mystring = "My Test string"; var reg = new RegExp(q, "i"); mystring.replace(reg, ""+q+"");
This is the reason I can not simple replace with "q" and need to replace with what was actually found. But this does not work like this:
Code JavaScript:
var q = "test".toLowerCase(); var mystring = "My Test string"; var reg = new RegExp((q), "i"); mystring.replace(reg, "$1");
I guess the question is: As "q" is a variable - how do I put parentheses around it so that I can reference it in the replace statement?

My mother-in-law and I have been working on this quilt for my daughter since February. We're going to send it out to get it longarm quilted, but the top is at least finally done. Still needs squared a little.
I designed the layout, and chose the sashing fabrics, and I'm very happy with the overall look. We showed the finished top to my daughter (she's 4) and now she's obsessed with when she will get it. Hopefully she'll be as excited when we finally can put it on her bed. A couple of the fabrics are from things I've made for her, a christmas stocking and an easter dress.
There's also a hot air balloon fabric that is meaningful, since we went to the Balloon Fiesta in Albuquerque last year with the kids.
