City Manager’s Weekly Briefing February 13, 2012

Cincinnati State Project to Utilize Section 108 Loan Guarantees

As the final details are being completed to move the Cincinnati State project from concept to construction, the developer, Higher Education Partners ("HEP"), will be utilizing a number of financing sources including HUD’s Section 108 program to pay for purchase and renovation of the buildings to be used in the new campus. Current plans call for HEP to repay the loan over a 6 year period.

Section 108 is a loan guarantee provision of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. Section 108 provides communities with a source of financing for economic development, housing rehabilitation, public facilities, and large-scale physical development projects. This makes it one of the most potent and important public investment tools that HUD offers to local governments. It allows them to transform a small portion of their CDBG funds into federally guaranteed loans large enough to pursue physical and economic revitalization projects. Such public investment is often needed to inspire private economic activity, providing the initial resources or simply the confidence that private firms and individuals may need to invest in distressed areas. Section 108 loans are not risk-free, however; local governments borrowing funds guaranteed by Section 108 must pledge their current and future CDBG allocations to cover the loan amount as security for the loan.

As the agreements come together between Cincinnati State and HEP and between HEP and the City of Middletown, City staff will submit for Council’s consideration an application for Section 108 financing. As with other CDBG documents, this process will require a public hearing and a 30 day public comment period before coming to Council for legislative action. The final dollar amount has not been determined at this time, and the individual agreements, the amount requested by HEP, and all other details of this project will be brought forward as part of the public hearing and public comment process before Council votes on the matter.

Just keeps gettin' better and better Vivian. Looks like there is no end to the fed money sources for this project. Section 108 is a new kid on the block isn't it?

"Current plans call for HEP to repay the loan over a 6 years period"

So, the city is responsible for the loan payments if HEP defaults?

"Section 108 loans are not risk-free, however local governments borrowing funds guaranteed by Section 108 must pledge their current and future CDBG allocations to cover the loan amount as security for the loan:

Looks like the city must put up any current/future CDBG funds to cover the loan amount as security if HEP doesn't come through, right? If that's true, they can't use the current CDBG funds as they will have to hold them as loan security. If some of the CDBG funds are being used, how do you hold them for security and still use them for current expenditures? Am I reading this correctly? Heck of a risk for the city isn't it?

Well, I guess that will be one more excuse for NOT using CBDG funds for re-paving our streets (unless, of course, the streets happen to be downtowne or in a historic district).

Mr. P,

You forget that ALL of Middletown is historic in the same way that all of Middletown is a slum!!! Make up some numbers, pass a few rules and poof!!!

Will this mean that all CDBG funds will have to be escrowed until HEP pays off the loans? How are they going to demolish any more buildings? Lose $50k per house rehabbed? Will the city have to sue HEP if they walk away without paying the loan or will the taxpayers be on the hook for the loan? I've said it before, this is a big investment risk for the city, it had better work or this city will be in worse shape than it is now!!!

Gentlemen
    Do you remember the City telling us that
Cincy State would be INVESTING 20 million dollars in the Downtown Middletown Campus?
    Are we selling CS-HEP the two buildings are we leasing them? We have been told that CS-HEP would purchase the
CG&E Building and City would give them the old Senior Center Building.
    I will give CS-HEP 5 stars for making this deal…they got everything they wanted without any investment or risk. However this clearly shows this deal was an act of desperation on the part of the City.
    As I stated several months ago this was always to be a HUD funded project. Yep this is what ya can get when you’re known as “Slumville
USA”. I just love it when the City tells us they really want to get rid of Section 8…however they just love spending all that HUD money they get for all those poor people.
    What will the total amount of CDBG Funds needed to be invested in this project? (5 million was the last number that I remember)
    What percentage of these Middletown CS students will be Online-Students? Just another small fact that they don’t want the public to know about.
    Isn’t it true that CS will use this location to recruit students for downtown
Cincinnati classes also?
    Where will the mini bus stop be located to take students from
Middletown to classes in downtown Cincinnati?
    I just can't wait to see the final contract on this deal.

Vivian,
 
Is this going to tie up all or a portion of our CDGB funds for the next 6 years?

I guess we can just throw gravel in the pot holes...

Vivian and Pacman

The CDBG funds are a loan. A loan that will be repaid. A loan that does not reduce or impact on the City's annual allocation of CDBG funds. A loan to build educational opportunity in our community.

How is this a bad thing?

Tell me all you M-USA pundits.

Middletown29, how will the loan be repaid from a city that is cash strapped and generating operating revenue from taxes, fed loans and accepting Section 8 funds while ruining the city to do so? From what fund will the city pay these loans? There's no money to fix the streets and sewers. No money to keep a police and fire force intact. No money to take care of the parks. But there is money to pay the loans off? Where are they going to get the money? Bleeding the people dry is the usual method.

The city has purchased property (to the tune of $450,000 and beyond) and spent money it could ill afford to spend on speculation that CS will come and prosper. They did this without a firm, signed commitment from the college. Would you have taken out a loan for a house on speculation, a handshake and without a signed deal? How about a car loan? Would you commit without knowing specifics like the city did? CS may come to the city, pending outcome of the current decision to allow it, but the curriculum and specifics still have yet to be defined. They won't even use all of the buildings the city purchased and some will sit idle deteriorating with no user in sight.

When the smoke has cleared, and we all know how the CS deal pans out, city leaders will either come out of this smelling like a rose, or they will be crucified for their incredible stupidity. We are all waiting.....just like the PAC deal, which hasn't been the ball of fire they had hoped it would be. As of today, it has been a waste of money as to cost versus usage and attracting people to the downtown. This city has a habit of making bad decisions and instituting bad ideas at sizable costs in it's history. CS and the PAC may be two more to add to the failure list. We shall see.

hopefully a good thing, mtown.
sincerely hope that it plays out well
 
still--why should citizens be on the hook for repaying any loan to put this together?
hep and C St. are the ones with by far the most to gain
 
mu-m is much larger, however "dorm rooms", book stores(remember?), coffee shops, restaurants never developed in that area. actually everything in that approx.area has shut down vacant.
can C St. create more?
I hope so!
 
I am confused as to how buying seriously deteriorated properties in the former downtown area will solve anything, without a strong universally endorsed plan that offers a + for everyone.
 
I can't see it from this admin/council. They don't seem collectively to be organized, sharp or visionary to the degree of getting it right
They only seem interested in screwing the majority of the citizens(and each other maybe?) for the gain of the usual few
 
with the BOA on the verge of springing a huge tax levy on us, how can city pile it on at the same time?
we need people/businesses that can survive and contribute
we have too many now that can't/don't pay anything
 
how will Council/admin work with the schools?
anyone remember what used to be Towne Mall?

Vet, I wouldn't be so sure of your "facts" regarding PAC being a bust.  Have you been to a First Friday?  Have you seen all the events being held in the facility?  It seems to me that PAC has passed the eyeball test as far as activity.  But none of us know the projections vs. actual revenue, so who knows for sure.  And whether that translates to other activity downtown, I don't know.  Rumor has it that another eating establishment will be opening up nearby.

No, don't go to the PAC. Not my type of place nor people who would frequent it. Personally didn't like taxpayer money used to finance it's existence for the benefit of a few, select people in town. With the S. Main St. crap going on, doing things for a few, select group of individuals seems to be the theme of the city leaders.

Actually opinions rather than facts. Example....you state you think PAC has passed the eyeball test for activity. Your opinion. I believe PAC has a long way to go before it can justify it's existence. We're probably going to see that type of breakout in opinion if we ask more people. Success or not- not going to reach a universal opinion either way I would imagine.

Is the PAC open all week or just on selected days? Would you say the PAC attracts mainstream Middletown or those in the artzy/special occasion groups in the area which account for less than 10-15% of this town's population? With a lack of appeal to the majority, it is not exactly a destination that would be a catalyst for growing the downtown, is it? IMO, what PAC offers is not what attracts most of Middletown. A new restaurant attraction? Wonder if this new eating place will last longer than Quiznos or the wine place did. So far, history has not been kind to any eating establishments succeeding around the PAC. Time will answer this for all of us.

Good point Middletown29. You are correct. Now, answer why Middletown spent $450,000 on four speculation buildings with the hope that CS would show up, WITHOUT a signed committed contract and now must sit on at least two of the four buildings purchased without knowing if they will ever find a tenant, buyer or user? Furthermore, we still don't know if this is going to fly because the ruling still hasn't been made concerning HEP, has it?

Again, I ask you, if you were making the decision, would you have stuck your neck out, prematurely purchasing property, like the city did, without some signed, legal commitments? Would you have used that same thinking using your personal money on a mortgage or car loan? Don't believe anyone would, would they?

City reviewing contract to land Cincy State

By http://www.middletownjournal.com/services/staff/1317913.html - Michael D. Pitman , Staff Writer 10:13 PM Tuesday, February 21, 2012

MIDDLETOWN — The city is ready to sell one of the buildings it purchased for a downtown Cincinnati State Technical & Community College campus — and recoup almost half of what it invested.

The city staff is reviewing a draft contract with Higher Education Partners, the developer of the proposed Cincinnati State project. The contract calls for the sale of the former CG&E building at 1 N. Main St. for $202,000.

The city had invested roughly $450,000 in the former CG&E building, as well as former Bank One, First National Bank and Masonic Lodge buildings, and the former Manchester Inn & Conference Center.

Greg Pratt, the city-contracted consultant on the Cincinnati State project, said the deal “basically makes the taxpayer whole for what they have invested in the (former) CG&E building.”

He said this “marks the beginning of the end” of the first phase of the Cincinnati State project.

The draft contract with HEP also calls for the city to donate the former city senior center at Verity and Columbia parkways, adjacent to the Middletown City Building on Donham Plaza. The senior center was built in 1978 with funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and has community development block grant restrictions. Law Director Les Landen said a community college is an approved use for the building.

“Together these two buildings will encompass the initial campus of Cincinnati State here in Middletown,” Pratt said. “We know that Cincinnati State is actively working on its programming and marketing this facility.”

Cincinnati State officials could not be reached Tuesday for comment, but the school is actively looking to hire a grass roots marketing professional for the Middletown campus. School officials have said they plan to open the campus this fall.

Mayor Larry Mulligan said it has taken a while to get this first phase of the Cincinnati State project to where it is today.

“This opens the possibility for new programs offered for education,” he said of the contract, which is expected to be approved in principle on March 6 and later signed by City Manager Judy Gilleland.

It also, Mulligan said, opens up the possibility “for long-term revitalization downtown.”

The draft contract calls for the interior demolition and construction of the CG&E building and the senior center to start by May 1 and be completed by June 1, 2014. Until the work is done, HEP will take out a performance bond to ensure the project is completed, Landen said. If the contract is breached, the city will step in to ensure the work is completed, he said.

Provided no significant changes are made, Gilleland will sign the contract. But two things must happen first:

• The developer must conduct an environmental study on the senior center. Pratt said there are no known issues, but a study doesn’t exist.

• Cincinnati State and HEP officials must sign their contract first. Pratt anticipates that will be in the next few days. But the Ohio Attorney General’s Office is still reviewing the contract, spokesman Lisa Hackley said Tuesday.

Cincinnati State’s board of trustees approved its contract with HEP in November, and does not need further action — unless there are significant changes — for it to be signed by President Dr. O’dell Owens.

Mulligan said the city’s investment in downtown buildings has given it the ability to control its “destiny” in key areas of downtown. But he said Tuesday that this contract will be the start of the city “getting out of the property-ownership business and it brings in the private sector for those buildings for development.”

The contract allows the HEP to take out a Section 108 Loan of up to $1 million, which is a HUD-sponsored loan used to spur various rehabilitation projects, including economic development and public facilities rehabilitation.

OH, SO NOW IT'S CONTRACT TIME HUH? KINDA LATE IN THE GAME FOR COMMITMENT TIME, ISN'T IT?

Please help me understand this.....

"School officials have said they plan to open the campus this fall".

Then. later in the story.....

"The draft contract calls for the interior demolition and construction of the CG&E building and the senior center to start by May 1 and be completed by June 1, 2014"

AM I READING THIS CORRECTLY? THE FIRST LINE SAYS THEY PLAN TO OPEN IN THE FALL (OF 2012). THE SECOND LINE STATES THAT THE START OF INTERIOR DEMOLITION AND CONSTRUCTION OF THEIR TWO BUILDINGS- THE SENIOR CENTER AND THE CG&E BUILDING WILL BE COMPLETED BY JUNE, 2014. DOES ANYONE UNDERSTAND HOW THEY WILL OPEN IN 2012 AND HAVE THEIR BUILDINGS IN 2014? DON'T UNDERSTAND. ARE THEY PLANNING TO HAVE CLASSES AND CONDUCT BUSINESS IN BUILDINGS THAT ARE BEING GUTTED AND REDONE? OR, ARE THEY PLANNING TO OPEN AND HAVE STUDENTS IN A BUILDING THAT IS BEING REHABBED OR NOT HAVE ACTUAL STUDENTS ATTEND UNTIL 2014?

"If the contract is breached, the city will step in to ensure the work is completed, he said."

WHAT? WHY WOULD THE CITY STEP IN TO ENSURE THE WORK IS COMPLETED IF THEY HAVE A CONTRACT? IF THE CONTRACT IS BREACHED BY HEP OR CS, THEY ARE LIABLE FOR THE COMPLETION OF THE WORK, WHETHER THEY USE THE FACILITY OR NOT. IF A CONTRACT BREACH, THE CITY TAKES THEM TO COURT. WHY WOULD THE CITY EVEN SUGGEST ENSURING THE WORK IS COMPLETED IF THEY BACK OUT? USE TAXPAYER MONEY TO ENSURE THE COMPLETION? WHY WOULD ANYONE AGREE TO THAT?


"Mulligan said the city’s investment in downtown buildings has given it the ability to control its “destiny” in key areas of downtown. But he said Tuesday that this contract will be the start of the city “getting out of the property-ownership business and it brings in the private sector for those buildings for development.”

WHAT? MULLIGAN SHOULD REPHRASE HIS RESPONSE. HE SHOULD HAVE SAID, "THE CITY'S INVESTMENT IN DOWNTOWN BUILDINGS HAS GIVEN IT THE ABILITY TO CONTROL EVENTS IN THE DOWNTOWN AREA CLOSE TO THE MAIN ST./ S. MAIN ST. AREA FOR THE PURPOSE OF ATTEMPTING TO ENHANCE PROPERTY VALUES ALONG THAT CORRIDOR, WHICH JUST HAPPENS TO BE THE NEIGHBORHOOD I LIVE IN".

MULLIGAN'S COMMENT ABOUT "THE START OF THE CITY GETTING OUT OF THE PROPERTY-OWNERSHIP BUSINESS" IS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! IF THAT'S THE CASE, WHY IS THE CITY CONTINUALLY BUYING PROPERTIES AROUND THE CITY, SUCH AS THE ROSE FURNITURE STORE AND THE PROPERTY ON CRAWFORD ST. THAT VIVIAN BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION? WHY DID THEY GIVE MMF $65,000 FOR PROPERTY ACQUISITION IF THE INTENT WAS TO GET OUT OF THE REAL ESTATE BUSINESS? WHAT MULLIGAN SAID AND WHAT THEY ARE DOING ARE NOT THE SAME THINGS. WHAT ABOUT DUNCAN OIL, OFFICE OUTFITTERS, THE CABINET SHOP FIASCO ON CENTRAL? ALL CITY PROPERTY NOW, RIGHT? JUST SITTING THERE WITH LITTLE TO NO VALUE. WE WERE TOLD THE CITY WAS GETTING OUT OF THE REAL ESTATE BUSINESS A DECADE OR SO AGO. THEY'RE STILL IN IT.

This is what HEP has done at the other schools they have opened on the east coast.
Cincy State has stated that they will have some classes start in the fall of 2012.
They will restore each floor of the C&E building as students population grows.

The statement above says it all. No one in Donham had any intention nor is Cincinnati State a game-changer for Middletown.

Memo to Greg Pratt: No, Cincinnati State is not actively marketing the buildings, they will be marketing their curriculum. Did all take note the city STILL cannot tell the residents what classes Cincinnati State is offering? It’s all hype, a smokescreen, to protect Main Street. The city created a TIFF for that purpose.
This city is a soap opera

Acclaro
They can’t tell us about the curriculum nor the amount of the 108 CDBG Loan that will be needed for updating of these two buildings.

We still do not know how many of these students will be internet students.
The devil is in the details of this story...

Middletown campus expected to open fall / winter 2012

While a variety of classes and programs will likely be offered, Cincinnati State expects to concentrate heavily on offerings of “hybrid” courses at the Middletown campus. These are blends of traditional and online classes, designed in large part to serve the needs of individuals who are trying to work and raise a family while attending college.

But wait, only Cincinnati State has hybrid classes right, and they all will be in Middletown? But how do you learn to cook online...oh....culinary institute is not coming to Middletown. Well, MUM doesn't offer hybrid classes do they? Well padre, they do, hundreds, in every major, every discipline. Who knows though....maybe the flags on Cincinnati State will attract a new article in Forbes magazine about Middletown's "turnaround."

Here's MUM's write up nationally in its broad offering in Distance/ Hybrid Learning, what a novel idea.

Acclaro:

Judging from some recent posts right here on this forum, there is one dire need in Middletown for which online education would be ideal.  Perhaps the first course that Cinci State should offer is:

SARDONIC POETRY 101  LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL

I beg to differ with you Professor Presta, my learned friend. My poetry had nothing to do with the Sardinians nor did I receive my education from the University of Sardinia. I prefer to categorize my poetry as Middletown briarhopper ghetto slang with just a touch of ditty-boppin'hip hop.

City Manager Weekly Update
March 14, 2012

Cincinnati State Update

We are working with the staff on parking and other issues – making progress toward the goal of having students here this fall. The contract still has not been signed between Cincinnati State and the developer – Higher Education Partners. Therefore, the contract between the City and HEP has not been signed. Soon, hopefully soon!

Don't know. Guess we could get excited about this if they would actually sign something and get some commitment from CS and HEP. 3 or 4 times of hearing that "we're close to signing" kinda takes the luster off of things. Until then, it remains a non-factor for this town. Don't think there will be some last minute change with either CS or HEP balking at the idea?

Congratulations to City Manager Gilleland and her crew.

Now, Phase 2...

Is there a contract signed as yet? If so, what are the commitments made by CS? Long term or can leave at any moment?

What type of classes will be offered?

How many students have or will be signed by their estimation?

Will this number keep the ball rolling or temper any new attempts at expansion?

Time and area student interest will tell whether this will be long term or not. Let's wait a year or two before we get all giddy with delight. Still alot to play out here.

City Manager Gilleland states that this is "another major step forward for Middletown" How many steps have we taken back, Ms. Gilleland?

Ms. Gilleland further states, "2012 is going to be a great year in our city"......We are a third of the way through 2012. This is the first event that has the potential to be positive for the year. Are we going to use one event that hasn't been activated nor expectations seen as yet to define having a "great year"? Premature optimism perhaps?

Cincinnati State signs deal to bring branch campus to Middletown

By http://www.middletownjournal.com/services/staff/1317913.html - Michael D. Pitman , Staff Writer Updated 7:27 PM Thursday, April 5, 2012

    MIDDLETOWN — At least 200 students will be taking classes this fall at the new downtown Cincinnati State Technical & Community College branch campus.
   
Cincinnati State officials announced Thursday that after months of negotiating a contract with its developer, Massachusetts-based Higher Education Partners, they have consummated a deal that will turn the former CG&E building at the corner of Central Avenue and North Main Street into the school’s first branch campus in Butler County
.
    “We’re tremendously excited about the opportunity to extend our presence into the
Middletown community,” said Cincinnati State President Dr. O’dell Owens. “We’ve been listening carefully and we are developing a package of courses that we believe will address the educational and workforce needs of the region. We’re enthused about our partnership with HEP and the city of Middletown
.”
    Now that the
Cincinnati State deal is signed, Middletown City Manager Judy Gilleland will sign sometime next week the city’s deal with Higher Education Partners, which will sell the former CG&E building for $202,000 and donate the former senior center at Verity and Columbia
parkways.
    “Thanks to Dr. O’dell Owens and the Board of Trustees, along with the faculty and staff at
Cincinnati State
for their dedication to this project. This new campus is a perfect example of a successful public-private partnership,” said Gilleland. “Higher Education Partners came to the table with the capital asset, the city came to the table with the facilities and a lot of community enthusiasm, and Cincinnati State came to the table with the educational and operational aspects.
    “The three partners were able to work in concert with one another to put this deal together. Given the economy today, no one entity, public or private, is able to pull together large-scale deals. These three entities were able to accomplish the mission.” 
    According to the Cincinnati State-Higher Education Partners contract obtained by the Middletown Journal, the initial term of the contract is 20 years, and is set to expire following the 2032 summer semester. The contract allows up to four five-year extension options.
    Interior demolition of the former CG&E building, which includes gutting the first, third and parts of the sixth floors and the basement, is set to begin later this month. Construction is set to begin on May 1 and work is scheduled to be completed by July 15.
    The floors will include classrooms and labs, student services areas (enrollment, advising, counseling, financial aid and study areas), and a few offices, said
Cincinnati State
spokeswoman Jean Manning.
    According to the unsigned but council-approved city contract with Higher Education Partners, work on the CG&E building and the senior center must be completed by
June 1, 2014
.
    The contract private/public contract is being dubbed “the first of its kind in the state of
Ohio,” according to Cincinnati State
officials. Manning said that is why it took a few months for the Ohio Attorney General’s office to review the contract.
    “... will be the first one of several I believe with Higher Education Partners and they’re basically looking at our as the template moving forward,” Manning said.
    Calls to Higher Education Partners were not returned Thursday.
    Ohio Board of Regents Vice Chancellor Gary Cates said he is thrilled with the signed contract.
    “I have two words, hoo-ray,” said the former state senator from
Butler County
.
     Cates said the deal was consummated in a “relatively short period of time” given how slow government moves.
    When classes begin this fall,
Cincinnati State
hopes to have at least 200 students attend classes. Manning said programming, which is still being worked out, will included classes in the college’s business technology division, center for innovative technology, humanities and science, and health and public safety; the school will also offer programs and certificates through the Workforce Development Center.
    Details of the programming will be part of the information sessions the college will conduct in the Middletown City Council chambers at
One Donham Plaza. The first of the “Get There” sessions, which will include admissions specialists, is set for 9 a.m. and 6:30 p.m.
April 18.
    “For all students and community interested in finding out more about the programs we will be offering and how to apply,” said Manning. “They will occur every first and third Wednesday of the month thereafter.”
    The deal to bring
Cincinnati State
began in earnest in September 2009 when the late Perry Thatcher, a local businessman and city councilman, invited the college’s resident chef to cook at The Manchester Inn, a building he had owned.
    At a
Cincinnati State board of trustees meeting on Oct. 26, 2010, an agreement between the college and city was announced where the city would buy and then sell downtown buildings for a potential branch campus. College officials expressed initial interest in the former CG&E building and the Manchester Inn and Conference Center
.
    The city had purchased the former CG&E, Bank One, First National,
Masonic Temple
buildings in October 2010 for $300,000 and the Manchester Inn in February 2011 for $175,000.
    Greg Pratt, the city-contracted consultant on the project to bring
Cincinnati State to the city, said any future discussions about expanding the Middletown
campus, which would be considered phase two, may include bringing a culinary school and event center and involve the Manchester Inn.
     The majority of the costs to upgrade the former CG&E building will be bore by Higher Education Partners, according to the contract. The total preliminary budget, which includes buying the building and architectural work, totals nearly $3.07 million. Construction alone, which is to be paid by Higher Education Partners, is budgeted for $1.2 million.
        “It’s huge obviously because it’s going to fill a tremendous void in occupancy in downtown
Middletown,” said Bill Triick, president and CEO of the Chamber of Commerce Serving Middletown, Monroe & Trenton
. “I’m excited to see we’re at the point that people are signing documents. That’s another indication of the strong commitment they have to us.”
    The impact
Cincinnati State
will have on the city and region is difficult to assess at this point, Triick said, “They have told us from the very beginning they want their students to be co-op students,” he said of conversations school officials have had with the chamber. “That helps businesses, that helps the students and that’s a great marriage opportunity.”
    While Triick said they couldn’t guarantee jobs, “we told them we would do everything we could to facilitate their students meeting with local employers to see if there are jobs that can’t be filled while they’re going to school.”

“According to the unsigned but council-approved city contract with Higher Education Partners, work on the CG&E building and the senior center must be completed by June 1, 2014.”

The “unsigned but council-approved city contract”???

Exactly when was this contract “council-approved”???  Certainly not at any of the meetings that I watched on TVMiddletown!!!  Did I miss something, or did this action take place in an ILLEGAL city council meeting???

What about this Mr. Landen, Mr. Picard, Mr. J. Mulligan, Mr. Pratt, Mr. Adkins, or any of the other attorneys who may have been involved and who are officers of the court—sworn to uphold the law???

This makes no sense. How can work be completed when there is no binding agreement? This charade is really making a mockery out of Middletown....or rather, a heightened mockery out of a city already an embarrassment.

AJ Smith is also an embarrassment. Why isn't the Mayor asking him to recuse himself from voting on the public safety levy when Smith goes to school to become a foreman, and clearly, he has a conflict of interest in shilling for the passage of the levy in such an underhanded manner, when he want/ desires a job. Does he get one? Does he get a letter of recommendation? I cannot believe Mr. Mulligan and Landen have not pointed this out. I believe council gave approval for Greg Pratt to do anything he wanted with HEP.

I watched a Council meeting where the as of then un-signed, unknown agreement was voted through said Council. Mr.Pratt mae the plea/recommendation, and Council jumped all over it. Wanted the arrangement pre-approved, so that work could begin immediately after the agreement was reached without any further delay waiting for a Council meeting.

Bill....good observation. Pratt will be retained to make sure all those Cinci State students pay their fines in Middletown so the SWAT team doesn't break a car down or apartment down to come and get them for missing their $10.00 a month amortized payment. I understand a black woman dying of cancer and on chem-therapy had her door broken down a few days ago by the SWAT team, and they roiled her out on a gurney for missing her fine payment, as she lay awaiting to die in 6 months. Where's the NCAAP when you have a legitimate issue?

swohio75----You posted the listing of all of Cincinnati State classes. I have called their admission office and Middletown will be nothing more than a hub for directing online classes taken in Cincinnati. All of the courses you referenced which they state "Middletown" will be taught in Cincinnati.

spiderjohn----while AJ Smith may never be a firemen, perhaps a community organizer, he has certainly "burnt" enough of his bridges in Middletown. Someone is stuck putting them out. 

Is a lobotomy an option?

Councilman A.J. Smith, chairman of council’s public safety subcommittee, disagreed. He said the voters will be “die-hard fans” of public safety, those who vote against any tax and the uninformed voters who Smith added can be convinced of the need.

“August is our best chance to get it, a continuing levy would make the most sense,” Smith said.

Spiderjohn,

Do you recall at which meeting this occurred??? I realize that my memory sometimes fails me, but if you could give me a time frame or perhaps some other topic that was prominent at the same meeting, it could jog my memory enough for me to find either the minutes or the BlipTV recording.

Thanks in advance.

Thank you, Vivian (and Spiderjohn)!!!

Well, I sit corrected!!!

The agreement was indeed passed by council at the March 6, 2012 meeting. 

The ordinance, which was read for the first time at the February 21 meeting, was changed to (and passed as) an EMERGENCY ordinance so Ms. Gilleland could be ready to sign the contract as soon as HEP and Cinci State signed their agreement, without having to wait thirty days for the ordinance to take effect.

Cincy State viewed as a partner
Miami U., Cincy State are two of five partners in Greentree Academy.

By http://www.middletownjournal.com/services/staff/1317913.html - Michael D. Pitman , Staff Writer 10:03 PM Saturday, April 7, 2012

    Cincinnati State Technical & Community College will add to Butler County’s reputation as an educational hub in the region, and not be competitor in the growing industry, local experts say.
    The college announced last week it had signed a contract with Higher Education Partners, meaning a downtown Middletown campus will open in the fall in the former CG&E building. More than 200 students are estimated to enroll the first year.
    Cincinnati State will be the county’s first community college, and Perry Richardson, a spokesman for Miami University’s regional campuses, said the two schools have been partners since they entered into an articulation agreement in 2008.
    “It is an agreement that is intended to improve service to area students. Basically it’s an agreement to collaborate,” said Richardson. “I think the citizens of Butler County can be proud that there are so many (educational) options, and they’re convenient, they’re affordable and they’re high quality.”
    One of the collaborations between the schools helped open in 2011 the Greentree Health Sciences Academy in neighboring Warren County. Other partners in the academy include the city of Middletown, Atrium Medical Center and the Warren County Career Center.
    “This is about collaboration not competition,” Richardson said of Cincinnati State coming to Middletown.
     “What this can do is create a system of student transfers between our systems that can be a seamless and effective as possible.”
    Cincinnati State Academic Vice President Monica Posey said being in the same county as Miami University will enhance that partnership.
    “This will provide more of a chance for our faculty to connect and hopefully develop some programming together,” she said.
    Posey said many students already transfer to Miami University from Cincinnati State.
    “They’re going to start near home and they’re going to finish near home,” she said.
The years of anticipation, and for some impatience, about when Cincinnati State would officially sign the deal to open its downtown campus melted Thursday when school officials announced they had signed a 20-year contract — which has four five-year extension options — with Massachusetts-based Higher Education Partners.
    In the future, Butler County won’t be just an educational hub in the region, but THE educational hub, said state Rep. Tim Derickson, R-Hanover Twp., who represents about half of Middletown.
    “Higher education is kind of a priority in this county,” Derickson said. “Even though (Cincinnati State) is starting out on the small scale, there’s not any reason for any of us to believe it’s going to stay on a small scale. They’re going to grow.”
    Posey said Cincinnati State wants to contribute to that future.
    “We’re moving in that direction and Cincinnati State is happy to be a part of that,” she said.
    Cincinnati State has approximately 10,500 students enrolled per semester at its main campus on Central Parkway in Cincinnat. At least 3,560 students could eventually be at the Middletown campus in the years go come, according to study results conducted by Boston-based Macguire Associates and released last June. Posey said having a few thousand students in Middletown in five years is the school’s target.
    Programming is still being developed for the Middletown branch campus, but Posey said “there will be different opportunities.”
    “We’re going to have a range of different programs, and we’ll have two areas of focus,” she said.
    Those students who intend to transfer to a four-year program, like at Miami, will be offered general education courses, and associate degree programs in technology. Courses will feature online and classroom classes, and hybrid options.
    Posey said the school is also looking toward workforce development “and we’re planning some training opportunities that employes can take advantage of as well as individuals.” One of those opportunities is offering stackable certifications. Ohio Sen. Bill Coley, R-Liberty Twp., said the signing “represents many more options for citizens of Butler County, which is a great thing,”
    “It’s a different market than Miami University and they’re going to complement each other very well,” Coley said.
    The Cincinnati State deal is also an economic development opportunity for the city.
    Derickson said while teaching and staff jobs be created — though an exact number has not yet been determined — every student will be training for some type of job.
    “That’s what education is all about,” Derickson said. “It’s not only about expanding your knowledge, but it’s about getting a job.”
    Bill Triick, president and CEO of the Chamber of Commerce Serving Middletown, Monroe and Trenton, said the community college will “fill a tremendous void.”
    “The educational institution is applying more qualifying graduates to the jobs available because they focused on the jobs available,” said Triick.
    Triick said the chamber has been working with the college to help students be co-op students.
    “We told them we couldn’t guarantee jobs, but we told them we would do everything we could to facilitate their students meeting with local employers to see of there’s jobs that can’t be filled while they’re going to school,” Triick said.

Higher Education Partners CEO Michael Perik calls community colleges “the workhorses” of education in the country. He said the student base of any community college is diverse, from students not ready for a four-year school to older students looking for a new career.
    “That’s why we love the community college market,” Perik said, “because it serves such a range and it’s so relevant of what’s going on in our country now.”
    Higher Education Partners first started when
Bristol Community College opened its e-Health Careers Institute in southern Massachusetts in 2010. The college started with a few hundred to now more than 2,000 students, Perik said. The Cincinnati State
deal will be a template for how many projects will be done in the future, he said.
    “What I’m really excited about is this is not only going to be a terrific educational project, but a terrific economic development project for the city,” said Perik, who added there are other deals in discussion around the state and country. “In this day and age and in this economic environment, it’s difficult to get projects like this done unless you have this tripartite cooperation.”

It is all so ridiculous.  Can you imagine if an actual company were moving to town to bring in actual jobs?  What kind of over-the-top hyperbole would these local hacks be able to summon then?  Likely we wouldn't hear too much about it because it wouldn't directly impact the downtowners. 
 
After seeking applause for an encore, will these dramatic performers please just stop their histrionics and exit stage left?

Happy Easter and Passover everyone. This is happening it seems the city is full steam ahead. I would suggest we try and focus on the East end. If involvement from the citizens isn't there THEY will muck this up. Phone calls and Emails to any State, county and local Reps. is needed. Don't roll your eyes or shack your heads to hard, it is a lovely day and I' m not going to ruin it with crazy talk. Just remember it's Monday Tomo it's going to still be here...our council that is.

Sale to Cincinnati State gets city’s OK

By http://www.middletownjournal.com/services/staff/1317913.html - Michael D. Pitman , Staff Writer 9:14 PM Friday, April 13, 2012

MIDDLETOWN — The city has signed a contract to sell the former CG&E building to a developer in what is one of the final steps to bring a Cincinnati State branch campus to downtown.

Late Friday afternoon, City Manager Judy Gilleland added her signature to the contract with Massachusetts-based Higher Education Partners to sell the building for $202,000. The deal also includes the donation of the former senior center at Verity and Columbia parkways. The contract has been mailed for Higher Education officials to sign.

“As I was signing the document, I was realizing that we have reached another milestone for Middletown,” said Gilleland. “Cincinnati State contractors and personnel have been present in the Middletown for several weeks now on a daily basis.”

Cincinnati State staff and contractor personnel will occupy an office and meeting rooms at the city building until their operation is up and running, Gilleland said.

Last week, Cincinnati State and Higher Education Partners officials signed their deal to develop the downtown campus that is expected to revitalize downtown. The school anticipates more than 200 students will enroll in the first year of the first branch campus of the community college, but programming is still being developed though Cincinnati State Academic Vice President Monica Posey has said “there will be different opportunities.”

There will be a range of programs offered and courses will feature online and classroom classes, and hybrid options.

Higher Education Partners CEO Michael Perik said he’s anxious for the hundreds and hopefully thousands of students to start taking classes in downtown Middletown.

“This is only possible because of the vision of (Cincinnati State president) Dr. (O’dell) Owens and Cincinnati State, and the vision of the local community of Middletown,” Perik said. “Middletown has been very committed of making this education center a core part of their downtown.”

While the former senior center is not part of the first phase of the project, Perik said plans for the building are being discussed.

“We’ve talked to representatives of the college about their physical therapy program because the senior center would be perfect for some of those applications,” he said. “We intend to utilize that (building) just as quickly as possible.”

Gilleland said city staff has been working with Higher Education Partners for a U.S. Housing and Urban Development Section 108 loan application to assist in financing of the campus. According to the application, $1 million will be requested for the project that will cost Higher Education Partners more than $3.1 million.

“This makes it one of the most potent and important public investment tools that HUD offers to local governments,” said Gilleland. “Such public investment is often needed to inspire private economic activity, providing the initial resources or simply the confidence that private firms and individuals may need to invest in distressed areas.”

Through May 9, the public may view the application and make comments. A public hearing will be held from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. Tuesday on the fourth floor of the Middletown City Building, One Donham Plaza. The contract will be presented to City Council at its May 1 meeting.

Why isn't this application available to be viewed on-line at the City's website???  This was announced late on a Friday for a hearing to be held at 4:30 the following Tuesday, and the only way to view the application is to go to the fourth floor of the City Building!!! The application could easily have been linked to the City's website if they really wanted it to be accessible to the public!!!  And why is the Public Hearing at the BEGINNING of the required 30-day review period instead of at the END of it??? 
As usual, it appears that City Hall is trying to stack the deck!!!

The bizarre paradox, indeed, irony of the stringing together of Cincinnati State because the city is incapable of bringing private business into Middletown, only public sector gifts such as the appellate court, OJFS (now closed), MUM, and C State, social security office, is that MCSD is losing enrollment, and of course, has dismal performance, and now the city of Middletown is now TASKED with bringing in enrollment increases for Cincinnati State.

I mean, what a paradoxical relationship. The MCSD is losing enrollment, putting a greater burden on the residential property tax owner, and yet the city of Middletown is focusing on increasing enrollment for Cincinnati State. Does this madness ever end?

Think raising tax rates don't matter to businesses? I ask you drive down Breiel again, and look at how many FOR LEASE signs are out. If you are renting or have a lease, companies are moving out of Middletown right and left. The building owned by the Schiavoni restaurant owner that was/ is across from the old Fenwick building is now up as well---FOR LEASE. Take a peek at CS & H's sign---FOR LEASE- AGGRESSIVE PRICING. They want out of that building and the tax burden so badly they'd give it to Cincinnati State.

Correct, I used to eat there often as well as Capozzi's, but checked out of Middletown completely. My dining is now in West Chester or down on the Montgomery Inn. Thx for correction.

Downtown’s future linked to Cincinnati State

Businesses, residents look toward campus for downtown’s next phase

By http://www.middletownjournal.com/services/staff/1317913.html - Michael D. Pitman , Staff Writer 1:12 PM Sunday, April 15, 2012

    MIDDLETOWN — Potential is what those who are invested in downtown now see since Cincinnati State Technical & Community College will open its first branch campus in August.
    Property owner Simon Kiniyalocts saw the potential when he purchased property at
1201 Central Ave.
at an auction.
    “It will hopefully add more people,” said Kiniyalocts. “
Middletown needs it. Middletown needs these businesses to come in. Downtown Middletown
is going down and we’re just now starting to rise and going back up.”
    If
Cincinnati State
wasn’t coming, Kiniyalocts said he wouldn’t have purchased the property.
    “Hopefully it will bring some good tenants that will want to start something in downtown
Middletown
,” he said.
    Downtown Middletown Inc. Director Patrick Kay is also here because of
Cincinnati State
.
    “I took the job because
Cincinnati State was going to be coming here,” he said. “That would be another major stepping stone to push Middletown
into that next phase.”
    And to have a destination location, like a college, will bring people downtown, Kay said.
Cincinnati State
officials anticipate that more than 200 students will enroll for the fall semester, and project more than 3,000 students within five years.
    “Having a college downtown is like putting an amusement park right in the middle of your downtown,” Kay said. “You really can’t ask for much more to have a college in your downtown. It pushes the direction of the downtown in a positive direction. It’s definitely going to spring board (economic development) a lot faster.”
    Earlier this month, officials with
Cincinnati State
and Higher Education Partners agreed to a 20-year contract to open the branch campus of the community college in the former CG&E building.
    On Friday, City Manager Judy Gilleland signed the contract to sell the building at the corner of
Central Avenue and Main Street
to Higher Education Partners, which will develop and pay for the renovations.
    “We envision
Cincinnati State
is going to grow,” said acting Economic Development Director Denise Hamet. “Our next phase is working with them on how they would like to use the senior center building. We also image they’d like to have some presence with their workforce development in downtown.”
    Higher Education Partners CEO Michael Perik said last week that the former senior center could be used for a physical therapy program.
    Gilleland sees downtown developing in several stages, anchored by those who are already invested in downtown.
    “We should recognize the past efforts of many volunteers and organizations over the past decades, because of their work in previous downtown efforts, our work is easier,” she said.
    The
Middletown Art Center and many religious and organizational mainstays have been downtown for decades, Gilleland said. And there are newer pieces, she said, that have become synonymous with downtown — BeauVerre Stained Glass and the Pendleton Art Center
, a public-private joint venture.
    But Gilleland said
Cincinnati State
“will have the most ability to significantly affect the downtown; perhaps the entire city.”
    The typical needs of many college students, she said, will likely spur development, such as coffee shops, small retail stores and restaurants.
    “I envision a thriving downtown area centered around education, entertainment and the arts,” Gilleland said. “There will be people walking around the streets visiting the many shops and restaurants. This energy will spill over into the entire city, which will make
Middletown
a more attractive place for young people and families.”
    Hamet said there already has been some interest in food and food-related services coming downtown, and envisions some downtown buildings being mixed-use.
    “Bringing back downtown as a place to live for all different occupations and all different income levels,” she said.
    There are a number of vacant buildings downtown, some of which are owned by the city. Hamet said the city will examine the city-owned buildings and look at their structural integrity before assessing their fates.

Patrick Kay quote...... "Downtown Middletown Inc. Director Patrick Kay is also here because of Cincinnati State.
    “I took the job because Cincinnati State was going to be coming here,” he said. “That would be another major stepping stone to push Middletown into that next phase.”

THE "NEXT PHASE" IS GOING TO BE BUILT AROUND 200 STUDENTS AND A WISH LIST FOR 3000 IN FIVE YEARS? THAT'S IT? NO OTHER PLAN TO ESTABLISH SOME DIVERSITY TO FALL BACK ON IF CINCY STATE DOESN'T WORK OUT AS PLANNED? NO OTHER IDEAS FOR DEVELOPMENT OTHER THAN A SCHOOL TO STIMULATE THE WHOLE DOWNTOWN AREA? COULDN'T THERE BE SIMULTANEOUS IDEAS IN PLACE OR ARE WE ONLY CAPABLE OF ONE-AT-A-TIME THINKING FROM CITY LEADERS?

    "And to have a destination location, like a college, will bring people downtown, Kay said. Cincinnati State officials anticipate that more than 200 students will enroll for the fall semester, and project more than 3,000 students within five years".

OH, I DON'T KNOW KAY. WHEN THE COLLEGE IS UP AND RUNNING, UNLESS IT SPAWNS OTHER ENTITIES OF INTEREST LIKE RESTAURANTS, MOVIES AND OTHER ENTERTAINMENT, I DOUBT THAT MOST WILL BE HEADED TO DOWNTOWN.....UNLESS YOU USE THE COLLEGE FOR CLASSES. DON'T NECESSARILY SEE THAT HAPPENING WITH SUCH A SMALL COLLEGE OPERATION PLANNED.

    “Having a college downtown is like putting an amusement park right in the middle of your downtown,” Kay said. “You really can’t ask for much more to have a college in your downtown. It pushes the direction of the downtown in a positive direction. It’s definitely going to spring board (economic development) a lot faster.”

AN AMUSEMENT PARK! 50/ 50 CRAPSHOOT ON THE "SPRINGBOARDING ECON. DEVEL. A LOT FASTER (IF AT ALL) WE SHALL SEE IF YOUR PREDICTIONS COME TRUE. WE WILL CONGRATULATE YOU IF THEY DO. WE WILL NOT LET YOU FORGET IT IF THEY TURN OUT TO BE PIPE DREAMS. WANNA REALLY STIMULATE TRAFFIC FLOW/PEOPLE FLOW, HOTELS AND ENTERTAINMENT IN THE DOWNTOWN AREA? PUT IN A CASINO. START WITH THE CONVERSION OF THE MANCHESTER INTO A SMALL CASINO AND SEE HOW IT GOES BEFORE EXPANDING. WHY SHOULD THE FOLKS IN INDIANA ENJOY ALL THE RESIDUALS OF CASINO REVENUE? JMO

AND MORE FROM GILLELAND......

"But Gilleland said Cincinnati State “will have the most ability to significantly affect the downtown; perhaps the entire city.”
    The typical needs of many college students, she said, will likely spur development, such as coffee shops, small retail stores and restaurants.
    “I envision a thriving downtown area centered around education, entertainment and the arts,” Gilleland said. “There will be people walking around the streets visiting the many shops and restaurants. This energy will spill over into the entire city, which will make Middletown a more attractive place for young people and families.”

NOPE! THE STIMULATION STARTS WITH GOOD PAYING JOBS TO AFFORD WHAT YOU ARE PROPOSING GILLELAND. GOTTA HAVE DISPOSABLE INCOME IN YOUR POCKET TO USE THE RESTAURANTS, COFFEE SHOPS, THE ARTS AND RETAIL STORES. NO EXTRA MONEY......NO SPENDING IN YOUR DOWNTOWN.......UNLESS YOU ARE COUNTING ON PEOPLE FROM OUT OF TOWN TO PATRONIZE YOUR DOWNTOWN. CART BEFORE THE HORSE MENTALITY IMO. GONNA TAKE MORE THAN A REVITALIZED DOWNTOWN TO ATTRACT YOUNG PEOPLE. GOTTA ENTICE THEM WITH DECENT EMPLOYMENT FIRST, RIGHT?

Vet, Cincinnati State is nothing but a smokescreen. I am still in shock over the complete bailout of businesses on all sides on Breiel. The only ones whom will benefit from the few students taking classes at Cincinnati State wil be the court system collecting traffic and drinking fines, and the few remaining attorneys whom haven't left Middletown for Springboro, hanging on a thread, who will get paid to keep the students out of jail, pay their fines, and charge $200./hr.

Concentration is on downtown. Forget Breiel or the East End. City leaders can't focus on more than one thing at a time as to econ. dev. Gilleland and crew either are not interested in maintaining the Breiel businesses or think the problem will magically fix itself in time. East End WAS the focal point........that is, until Mulligan, Kohler and others told Gilleland to do something about preserving some neighborhood home value where THEY live by attempting to make the nearby downtown area viable.(To hell with the rest of us as to preserving our home values) The rest of the town burns while the S. Main St. crowd fiddles. The professional office area on Breiel and the first impressions of the city at the I-75 interchange have taken a backseat to an area of town that has repeatedly seen attempts at revival taken and have repeatedly failed. Right now, the way the interchange looks, you may as well relocate the Riverside trailer park there. Would add to the trashy look at the interchange now. Totally misfocused. Totally inept......all of 'em.

First student enrolls at Cincinnati State has local officials discuss impact of campus

By http://www.middletownjournal.com/services/staff/1317913.html - Updated 12:05 AM Tuesday, April 24, 2012

MIDDLETOWN — Cincinnati State’s first student enrollee at its downtown Middletown campus helped raise its first sign Monday, signifying the college is open for business here.

Madison High School senior Mason Conley said the college’s location made his decision easy. City and business leaders said they hoped the location and partnership between the college and city will help others like Conley.

“The first time a college looks for a regional campus, it’s a huge move,” said Bill Triick, president and CEO of the Chamber of Commerce Serving Middletown, Monroe & Trenton. “This is opening up not just a place of employment and filling a building, but it’s pairing the people who are going to be working in a variety of things down the road.”

Middletown Mayor Larry Mulligan said the school will help people in the area improve their education and standard of life.

“This is one step forward of many steps forward,” said Mulligan. “It’s going to mean so much to open up the entire region, and open up so many opportunities for so many people.”

Earlier this month, Cincinnati State and Higher Education Partners signed a deal that would bring the community college’s first branch campus to downtown Middletown. A week later, the city signed off on its agreement to sell the former CG&E building at 1 N. Main St. for $202,000 and donate the former senior center to Higher Education Partners, for the Cincinnati State Middletown campus.

Construction of the Cincinnati State Middletown building is planned to be finished by mid-July, and about six weeks later classes are expected to begin.

Cincinnati State President Dr. O’dell Owens paid tribute to the late Perry Thatcher, the former city councilman and local businessman who envisioned Monday’s event.

“We’re here today because it started out with one man who had a dream, Perry Thatcher,” said Owens to a crowd of about 100 in the lobby of the future branch campus. “We’re here today because once city council and the city manager and its mayor were brave enough to take a chance, brave enough to spend tax payers’ money because they felt they could help create a future for Middletown. The power of one little community college to raise its hand to say it wants to be a part of Middletown and its redevelopment. And one very unusual, and we’re very fortunate to find this company, the Higher Education Partners out of Boston who said, ‘We would like to invest in education.’ ”

Owens told Kathie Wassenich, one of Thatcher’s daughters, that he would like to see Thatcher’s name grace the wall in the lobby of the Cincinnati State Middletown campus once it opens.

“We make a commitment that we will always develop a legacy for your father,” Owens said. “And I hope that one day we will be able to dedicate hopefully the lounge here, the entrance here, to your dad.”

Wassenich said she had a “warm glow” heading to the event “because I know he’s very happy. I’m sure he’s very proud.”

Higher Education Partners will be taking the financial risk, developing the Middletown campus for Cincinnati State. And during a time where people are frustrated with government, Higher Education Partners CEO Michael Perik said Middletown, Cincinnati State and Ohio made progress happen.

“Today’s an example that with the right leadership, with the right commitment from the state, the right commitment from the local community, you can actually still make progress,” he said.

It’s projected that more than 200 students will enroll this fall at Cincinnati State Middletown, and more than 3,000 students will enroll within a few years. The school will offer eight associate degree programs, including Conley’s desired field of study, hospitality management.

“At this point, I’m looking to do my two years and get into the field,” he said.

Is it just me…or does anyone else find it strange that this article does not include information such as exactly in which course this first student enrolled, or where the class will be held???

I'm just curious.

Some comments pertaining to the article.....

MIDDLETOWN — Cincinnati State’s first student enrollee at its downtown Middletown campus helped raise its first sign Monday, signifying the college is open for business here

THAT'S A START. 4999 TO GO TO MEET THE PROJECTED 5000 IN 5 YEARS. THIS ARTICLE IS A LITTLE PREMATURE AS TO MEETING NUMBER QUOTAS AND RAISING THE IMPACT LEVEL ON THE "WOW" FACTOR, ISN'T IT?

“This is opening up not just a place of employment and filling a building, but it’s pairing the people who are going to be working in a variety of things down the road.” Bill Triick comment.

AND WHAT WOULD THAT "PAIRING THE PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING TO BE WORKING IN A VARIETY OF THINGS DOWN THE ROAD BE BILL? AS IT STANDS NOW, YOUR STATEMENT IS VOID OF ANY MEANINGFUL SUBSTANCE. JUST PAPER QUOTE JIBBERISH

Middletown Mayor Larry Mulligan said the school will help people in the area improve their education and standard of life

AND HOW WILL THIS SCHOOL "HELP PEOPLE IN THE AREA IMPROVE THEIR EDUCATION AND STANDARD OF LIFE" IF THEY CAN'T USE THE EDUCATION TO APPLY IT TO EMPLOYMENT IN AND AROUND MIDDLETOWN BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'T ENTICED ANY COLLEGE LEVEL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES TO TOWN? IT'S ONE THING TO SUPPLY THE PREREQUISITES TO UPSCALE EMPLOYMENT.....IT'S ANOTHER THING TO SUPPLY THE END RESULT OF THAT PREPARATION BY SUPPLYING JOB OPPORTUNITIES. YOU PEOPLE HAVE NOT COMPLETED THE CYCLE REQUIRED TO MAKE IT WORK. THEY MAY GET THEIR EDUCATION HERE, BUT THEY WON'T STAY. NOTHING TO APPLY THE EDUCATION TO LAWRENCE.

“This is one step forward of many steps forward,” said Mulligan. “It’s going to mean so much to open up the entire region, and open up so many opportunities for so many people.”

SEE COMMENTS ABOVE.

We’re here today because it started out with one man who had a dream, Perry Thatcher,” said Owens to a crowd of about 100 in the lobby of the future branch campus
A "CROWD OF 100"

SLIGHT EMBELLISHMENT

Higher Education Partners will be taking the financial risk, developing the Middletown campus for Cincinnati State. And during a time where people are frustrated with government, Higher Education Partners CEO Michael Perik said Middletown, Cincinnati State and Ohio made progress happen.

“Today’s an example that with the right leadership, with the right commitment from the state, the right commitment from the local community, you can actually still make progress,” he said.

MIGHT WANT TO BACK OFF THE RHETORIC A LITTLE OWENS. JUST ONE STUDENT SO FAR FOR SUCH FLAMBOUYANT TALK. SAVE IT FOR WHEN YOU REACH YOUR PROJECTED 200 STUDENT NUMBERS....OR BETTER YET, THE 5000 NUMBER. THEN THERE WILL BE CREDIBILITY IN YOUR STATEMENTS.

It’s projected that more than 200 students will enroll this fall at Cincinnati State Middletown, and more than 3,000 students will enroll within a few years. The school will offer eight associate degree programs, including Conley’s desired field of study, hospitality management

"PROJECTED"....MORE THAN 3000 STUDENTS WILL ENROLL WITHIN A "FEW YEARS". VAGUE, AMBIGUOUS, GENERALITIES OFFERED HERE. NOTHING OF SUBSTANCE AS YET. 3000 IN A "FEW YEARS" (3 YEARS?....4 YEARS?....WHAT CONSTITUTES A "FEW YEARS"?), WHAT IS THE TIME FRAME FOR THE 5000 NUMBER? THE ANSWER IS......THEY DON'T HAVE ANY CONFIDENCE IN ANY NUMBER PREDICTIONS AS YET WITH JUST THE ONE RESPONDENT SO FAR. IT IS STILL A "HOPE" THAT THIS WILL WORK OUT........SO JUST WRITE THE ARTICLE AS SUCH PITMAN. CUTOUT ALL THE DRAMA, REPORT WHAT HAS OCCURED AND TONE DOWN THE IMPACT TO THE "WE'RE JUST GETTING STARTED" LEVEL. THAT'S ALL.JMO

I swore I wasn't even going to waste a keystroke but the fact Middletown residents have this mindset, the city is comprised of either the people that own the business and those that work for the owner, just boils me.

Perry Thatcher had a dream of turning the Manchester into a partnership with culinary. That isn't the deal.

The only thing this project brings and is for, is for Main Street to have something they can cling to on property valuation. To boast about the significance of this project is hyperbole at its highest.

The spin is just that...spin. No substance, nothing special. Why attend  school when there are no jobs in the town where the school is. And the crown jewel is void. Culinary is the only jewel in the education portfoloio at State because of price pt. It beats the hell out of the $40,000 at the French Culinary Institute. All the other programs offer no advantage, other than slightly cheaper in Sinclair. MUM is about $300./ credit hr, so save 20.00 going to C State? Why bother.

Why does everyone think that Middletown must have high paying jobs?  This is something that just is not going to happen ever again.  Middletown has a better chance of being a suburb to Dayton and Cincinnati if the City leaders get off their asses and clean out the garbage in the city. 

Middletown needs a New High School and A New Middle School (Not remodeled) to compete with other local suburbs. If the city would concentrate on appeling to middle income residents and children rather the low income citizen that we currently have that cause most of the expense and problems, Middletown could turn itself around.  Instead we have everyone around here moaing and groaning and getting nothing done.

The last city I lived in prior to Middletown had 100,000 people in it and 0 industrail, mechanical, or other high paying jobs.  It had 4 Walmarts, and a dozen or so grocery stores.  Most jobs were average paying minimum wage filled by students and part time mothers etc. 

The Schools run on the grading systems and most schools in this city (aleast 8 yrs ago anyway) were graded "A"  or "A+". 

This city was the place to live and raise your children.

Let me be blunt.  Cinci state has not announced what classes will be held here at their “Middletown campus” this fall, yet they have begun “enrolling students”!!!  Apparently I am the only one who finds this unusual.

Are they really just “enrolling students” for classes at their Cincinnati campus or for online classes???

How can they be enrolling students for classes at the “Middletown campus” if they have not yet announced what classes will be offered at the “Middletown campus”???

Well, I am eager to learn, and I am after the TRUTH…so tell me…EXACTLY what classes are being offered at Cinci State’s Middletown campus this fall???

I am anxiously awaiting your answer, SupportMiddletown!!

SupportMiddletown:
 

After you tell us what courses are being offered at Cinci State Middletown Campus this fall, perhaps you should go for an eye exam!!!  You seem to have missed the “question marks” in my posts.

I simply pointed out that, amidst all of the hoopla regarding the enrolling of the first student, no where was it mentioned in which course he enrolled.  In fact, no where have I been able to find ANY information about what courses will be taught IN MIDDLETOWN, yet much is being made about the college being “open for business here”, and “place of employment and filling a building”!!!

I have simply been asking one obvious question: 

“How can they be enrolling students in courses to be taught here, when they have not publicly announced what courses will be offered here???”

It’s a pretty simple, obvious question…so answer it, Mr./Ms. Know-it-all!!!

I'd like to respond to your post Pacman.....

PACMAN-"Why does everyone think that Middletown must have high paying jobs?"

Because high paying jobs allow people to have disposable income rather than "living from paycheck to paycheck" money. When people have disposable income, they buy houses instead of renting, they buy that car for the wife, they purchase more clothes, have more money for the kids, buy new furniture, appliances...more money flow in town. If we are content with Wal-Mart, fast food and Dollar General choices and the lousy wages they pay, no one has any hope for upgrading their standard of living. JMO

Pacman- "This is something that just is not going to happen ever again"

You're right....if we never pursue better jobs for the town. No one at city hall seems to see the need to even attempt the pursuit of decent jobs here, Sun Coke, being the exception. Instead of targeting $6 to $9 /hour, why don't we strive for $15-$25/hour? A household with two incomes at $15 to $25/hour can live quite nicely here in Middletown. Not a "Donny Trump" lifestyle, but not hurting either.

Pacman- "Middletown needs a New High School and A New Middle School (Not remodeled) to compete with other local suburbs"

Nope, disagree Pac. Don't need new facilities to compete. The new elementary schools have proven it's not the building. All new elementaries have produced minimal improvement. It's the method of instruction, the discipline needed, the parental support at home and the commitment of the admin. and teachers that will get the results we should be seeing. New buildings mean nothing if there is no quality of content inside.


Pacman- "If the city would concentrate on appeling to middle income residents and children rather the low income citizen that we currently have that cause most of the expense and problems, Middletown could turn itself around"

Not going to happen as long as Gilleland, Mulligan, Kohler, Landen and others are running the town. They don't care about the middle class (except at levy or tax time of course). Just care about your money. They care about their buddies and their masters, the MMF'ers who make their decisions for them. The low income are the reason for fed dollars and city revenue in lieu of bringing jobs to town for revenue. They need the low income for money, hence, they get all the attention. The low income programs are the cash cow and the city doles out the money to all who are participants like sugar daddies.

Pacman- "The last city I lived in prior to Middletown had 100,000 people in it and 0 industrail, mechanical, or other high paying jobs. It had 4 Walmarts, and a dozen or so grocery stores. Most jobs were average paying minimum wage filled by students and part time mothers etc"

Without decent jobs in this town, that makes Middletown a commuter town or bedroom community where people would live but would not work here. The wage taxes on commuter income goes to the town that the people work in, not Middletown. Not helpful to the city pocketbook. That drastically reduces the money flow and revenue generation needed so badly now (and currently supplied through fed government handouts like Section 8 and other ghetto producing programs)

Pacman- "The Schools run on the grading systems and most schools in this city (aleast 8 yrs ago anyway) were graded "A" or "A+".

IMO, the last time the schools even approached the "A" or "A+" level was in the 60's. This school system has been going down the toilet since the 70's as to quality of education.

Pacman- "This city was the place to live and raise your children"

Yep, in the 60's it was. Now, it has had the heart ripped right out of it by poor leadership, poor decision-making and with no vision, and with that went the quality of living that once thrived here. The city leaders we have had since the 80's has been extremely poor and we are seeing the end results of that now. This city has been decimated by ineptness at the helm. JMO

Supportmiddletown: It certainly appears that Mike knows exactly what we all have been told.  Cincinnati State now has an enrollment of ONE here.  They have been holding classes IN CINCINNATI since 1969, but have NEVER held a class in downtown Middletown, nor have they announced even ONE SINGLE CLASS that they will be holding in downtown Middletown.  If you have read some news that the rest of us have missed, please share it.  (And, as Mike would say, please cite your source.)

Pacman, this issue has been discussed many times. It is city government greed which inhibits what you are stating. There are fundamentally two types of cities, which are generally the size of Middletown. Those that have some light service, industrial base, and also function as a bedroom community, which they are able to drawl residents whom perceive the availability of a quality of life, safety, good ethical standards, and schools which are providing the foundation for future success to their children.

The other communities are just the opposite. They don't rely upon a heavy influx of residents, but a small number, while attracting large businesses, or at least many of them. In this camp is Mason, and Sharonville. A city like Springboro offers both, perhaps 60-40. That is, quality of life and bedroom community to 60% of their population, and 40% which is industry or service.

Turning to Middletown, it is attractive to either of the categories as listed. Firstly, residents fear for their health, as AK pollution is well documented and questioned as to its effect upon the individual. Secondly, the schools are not solid nor consistent. That point is without dispute. Next, throw in the lack of pride within city hall. The crumbling streets, the lack of services. Then, lets throw in a dask of 2.% taxes with amenities which are few, and frankly, none. Cheap housing means nothing when all the above dominate, and buying cheap means you'll also be selling cheap. And, Butler Cty property taxes are terribly out of whack with Warren Cty, by a significant margin.

Now, lets dive into heavy industry and services. High taxes drive those businesses away. The poor infrastructure mandates, LOOK ELSEWHERE. Poor schools means, LOOK ELSEWHERE. A city without a vision, rudderless, means LOOK ELSEWHERE.

So, while I could add easily another ten key pts, while easy to state Middletown COULD become a bedroom community, its dismal attractiveness makes it a non-fit for ever moving into that realm of reality. And for the reasons I have described.

Its nice to dream though isn't it. 

SupMid...the student that used the paper for some recognition signed up for C State's classes at Cincinnati. He did not enroll with a class selection, he selected Cincinnati State in Cincinnati as his enrollment choice only, over Miami Valley Jacobs, and Sinclair. Strile a match....lightening is happening in downtown Middletown with students flocking. Perhaps all out of state collegs and universities should also put in the Journal, Mildred or Mike from Middletown will be attending their schools as well for the free publicity.

How silly. Madison boy chose to enroll in Cincinnati State in Cincinnati by doing so in Middletown (wink, wink). I shake my head so often on the spin on C State, I am getting a neck brace before breaking a vertebrae.

Rumor being that the relationship between city admin and Neyer is over, and that admin has considering suing Neyer as one of their options. Not sure how we could gain anything by that. Maybe  someone in the know could clarify the status of the situation. East end progress seems to be a forgotten subject. Anyone heard anything regarding Towne Mall?
 
SWO75---rumor that I heard was that the new version of Red Onion might be located on the 2nd floor of the Pendleton building. Have heard yes--have heard no--somaybe I should shut up.
 
Any comments on the failed Duncan Oil project, the cash/man-hours wasted and how we displaced functioning businesses with nothing, and made a very poor land swap?

Hmmm.  Interesting.  That doesn’t make a lot of sense because from what I can tell, there is not a separate entrance upstairs, and the location does allow for great visibility.  Perhaps they are looking to replace All About You as the caterer for the upstairs event center?  That would make more sense.

The whole Renaissance commercial end has been a disaster since Great Midwest/Clayton went belly up.  Thankfully Fischer was able to step in and breathe new life into the residential component when GM/Clayton and Dixon failed.  The mutli-family owner-occupied piece of the equation seems to have fallen off as well. Victims of the housing market, I suppose.  The whole area feels so scattered with various pieces here and there.   And Neyer has been a disappointment.

Part Deux.  What is Duncan Oil’s deal?  Hopefully the city has learned its lesson with them.  Thankfully we did see the new UDF come to fruition and business seems to be quite good for them.

Neyer was in litigation with Hamilton before it began its efforts on the east wend with the Renaissance and should have known there to be problems, but I disagree the problems are of Neyer's making. There are over 50 acres for sale now, maybe more, right across from the Atrium at the old Bond farm, and no movement on the property in years. Same with the area around Meijer's that is being auctioned. Neyer can develop the land, but it is not solely their responsibility to bring in businesses that want to have a presence in Middletown. CS & H is where...and why?

I believe the most common word used by the city and to describe it, is "hope". Hopefully they learned from jumping the gun and buying property hoping a railroad train would appear in Middletown. I think the whole charade with Cincinnati State is based upon salvaging the work associated with the train coming from Cincinnati (hope and change right), and Main Street for the city leaders and council afforded the pleasure of walking "uptown" from their abode.

Gee, it seems that it will be taking a while for Spout-offMiddletown to return and tell us which courses will be taught by Cinci State here at their Middletown campus this fall.

I’m sure that he/she will be doing it…right after he/she:

Lists the historic events that occurred in downtown Middletown, and

Quotes the post wherein anyone who posts on this forum was “celebrating” the demise of the restaurant and catering business at the PAC, and cites the source, and

Backs up the other silly claims he/she has made here.

well--I have been messaged that all is fine with Red Onion @ Beau Verre--so I had bad info obviously.
Still seems that with all of the vacant space in that area that a better location could have been chosen. I can think of three other possibles.
Still---Beau Verre is an absolutely beautiful project, and you have to commend the Moormans for their efforts, persistence, hard work and the subsequent results. Should be a good local eatery.
 
East End?---I still can't get past the I-75 never-ending boondoggle, and am pleasantly surprised that more accidents haven't occured out there. We remain the stepchild of the region.
 
Duncan?--prime example of mis-management and total lack of follow-thru/commitment by everyone involved. As mentioned, maybe a knee-jerk reaction to the train deal falling through?
 
I ill miss the PAC eatery/caterer oif they leave. They do a fine job, and offer a nice Fri.evending dinner spread.
+ very nice people.

Mike, I once knew a CEO whom is well known as a turn-around executive, that had a saying I learned many years ago in business and consulting. Its called as he would say often.' FACTS ARE MY FRIEND'. It sounds simple enough, and you apply it daily in your interaction and observation, as do the vast majority of individuals who care about Middletown and their valuation, and just don't take kindly to the scam at city hall. As Joe Friday would say, "the facts maam, nothing but the facts."

There are two worlds in Middletown. The world of facts, Officer Joe Friday, CEO Jerre Stead types, and those in the world of fiction. SM, and council, and city hall....live in the world of fiction.

Lets expound on you remark  regarding C State classes. Well, Officer Joe Friday, here's what I know. I phoned Cincinnati State, and they have no idea what classes they will offer, and initial applications to Cincinnati are just that---they are registering students to attend C State in Cincinnati. In fact, honest Injun Officer Friday, they said Middletown is entirely tasked with creating the need for the market at the "northern" campus, and when they get enough students to determine what classes to offer, then they will begin looking at classes. Think of it as a church with the C State deal. You have a congregation of 0, think you are going to have Sunday services starting in a week, with overhead, at the Presbyterian Church, holding 500, when 0 are planning on attending to worship?   I digress Officer Friday, but you get the point.

Using another analogy, how's the Senior Citizen building doing after overpaying for property and its 11 acres or so? They thought they'd fill it up, everyone could come and pay a monthly fee. Guess what, they were wrong. They cannot even afford the gas and labor to mow grass but every 6-8 weeks.

I learned many years ago, when you live in the world of facts, with those living in fiction, the two rarely intersect. An example: you see and I see, the Atrium no measuring up to its potential. Its had an exit for years, and prime land owned by the Thatcher's, Akers, and others. What has kept it from growing? That's simple. The development has been around residential, non profit (churches and hospital), and a very minor office presence. The Clayton development is a bust in my pinion, Hospice and what else? The Renaissance? Same, a bust.

But to those living in fiction, ergo SupportMiddletown, instead of recognizing the fact developers north and south are bypassing Middletown and building further east and west off 75 (Austin Reed exit ring a bell), they say in a fictional dialect, "you know, it won't be anytime that there is no where else to build but Middletown,the center of it all, the heart, the front-door, the back door, its all going to explode." Hmmm.....and I have a golf course fully irrigated with rain water in Death Valley, price pt $100 Mm, want to buy it?

Facts are your friends, and fiction is your enemy. Fiction causes much pain and poor decision making. Too many "leaders' in the land of fiction.  That's the facts Officer Friday.

DMI set to help downtown Middletown prosper

MIDDLETOWN — City leaders want downtown to be a destination (FORGET THAT PESKY EAST END I GUESS), and Downtown Middletown Inc. will play a significant role in help making that happen. (BANGUP JOB SO FAR BY KAY AND ROBINETTE)

Thursday afternoon the nonprofit downtown booster officially opened its offices in the TV Middletown building, 1131 Central Ave., and Downtown Middletown Inc. board chair Mike Robinette said the building fits the organization’s needs.

“We felt it was important to have a presence in the core of downtown,” he said.

Downtown Middletown Inc.’s goal is to “make downtown an exciting place to live, work and play,” said Director Patrick Kay.

SO ROBINETTE RESURFACED HERE IN MIDDLETOWN AGAIN, HUH? GOT HIM A JOB WITH DOWNTOWN MIDDLETOWN INC, DID HE? DIDN'T THEY LIKE HIM AT HIS OTHER JOB? TIRED OF HIM ALREADY, ARE THEY? MUST HAVE BEEN DUE TO HIS HIGH LEVEL PERFORMANCE AS ECON. DEV. DIRECTOR THAT LANDED HIM HERE ONCE AGAIN. LIKE A BAD PENNY- HE JUST WON'T GO AWAY. OR....HE MUST BE BUDDIES WITH SOMEONE AT CITY HALL AND THEY JUST HANDED HIM THIS SILVER PLATTER CAKEWALK OF A JOB. WHAT HORSECRAP. KAY SEEMS FAIRLY WORTHLESS TO DATE ALSO. INEPTNESS MUST BE THE CRITERIA FOR EMPLOYMENT AT THE CITY BUILDING. MERCY.

“It’s about the organization. It’s about what this organization is going to do for the downtown community,” he said. “It really solidifies the position that we are really serious about this.”

KAY, ARE YOU ACTUALLY GOING TO DO ANYTHING WORTHWHILE, OR ARE YOU GOING TO DRAW A PAYCHECK TALKING IN ABSTRACT GENERALITIES?

With Cincinnati State Middletown, the monthly First Friday celebrations and other downtown activities, Mayor Larry Mulligan is excited about downtown Middletown. (LARRY AND OTHERS ARE ALSO EXCITED ABOUT MINIMIZING THE FREEFALL IN THEIR PROPERTY VALUES IN THE S. MAIN ST. AREA TOO)

“It’s good to say downtown Middletown is open for business and ready to get things done down here,” he said. “I think (Downtown Middletown Inc.) is really going to the driving force in downtown Middletown and we have a lot to look forward to

WE WERE "EXCITED" ABOUT THE CITY CENTER MALL BACK IN THE 70'S LAWRENCE. WE WERE "EXCITED" ABOUT THE EAST END DEVELOPMENT TO AROUND ATRIUM. WE SEE WHAT HAPPENED TO THOSE IDEAS, DIDN'T WE? DOWNTOWN, "OPEN FOR BUSINESS"???? UMMMM.....NOT YET. IF YOU ARE "OPEN FOR BUSINESS", THERE AREN'T ALOT OF CUSTOMERS SHOWING UP AT YOUR DOOR AS YET.


I STILL DON'T SEE WHAT THE EXCITEMENT IS TO ATTRACT ANY SIGNIFICANT NUMBER DOWNTOWN LAWRENCE. A FEW ARTS PLACES.....LITTLE TO NO DINING.....OCCASIONAL MUSIC EVENTS AT THE SQUARE....FIRST FRIDAY'S AT PENDLETON, WHICH IS A PART TIME OPERATION....CINCY STATE, WHICH, TO DATE, ALSO LOOKS LIKE A PART TIME OPERATION....SOME PAWN SHOPS....A BARREN WASTELAND AT THE TRACKS ON CENTRAL AT THE FORMERLY PROMISED "DUNCAN OIL" SITE.....OFFICE OUTFITTERS BOARDED UP....TRINKLET STORES....EXACTLY WHAT IS DOWN THERE TO BACK UP YOUR STATEMENT THAT WE ARE "OPEN FOR BUSINESS" AND "ALOT TO GET EXCITED ABOUT"??? PERHAPS IF YOU ACTUALLY HAD MORE IN PLACE TO ATTRACT A DIVERSE CROSS-SECTION OF PEOPLE, ONE COULD GET ENTHUSED, BUT AS OF NOW, CAN'T BE TOO MUCH EXCITEMENT FOR THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE LIVING IN THIS TOWN.

MORE EMBELLISHMENT FROM THE CITY LEADER GENE POOL LITTER. CERTAINLY DOESN'T TAKE MUCH TO EXCITE YOU PEOPLE, DOES IT? YA GOTTA STOP SAYING THESE THINGS. MAKES YOU LOOK LIKE A FOOL.

FACT:

Middletown WILL NEVER, EVER be a destination.

Middletown WILL ALWAYS be a central point of departure.

Downtown has failed repeatedly. What is driving this effort?

1) Main Street property, council members living on Main, and city leaders (planning ergo 'others').

2) The train from Cincinnati throughout Ohio. They thought Strickland would win Ohio, and all bets were placed on transport from Cincinnati to Middletown, even though it was a huge unknown even with the state route train, Middletown would be on the route. Huge gamble, rolled dice, and it failed. To save face, all efforts are on downtown AT TAXPAYER EXPENSE.

From MJ:

Give city manager credit for gutsy move

By Rick McCrabb, Commentary 7:49 PM Saturday, April 28, 2012

MIDDLETOWN — When asked if she likes to gamble, Judy Gilleland, Middletown’s city manager, managed a smile.

Question answered without uttering a word.

For most of her career here, Gilleland has sat at a Texas Hold ’Em table, dark sunglasses over her eyes, head buried in her arms.

Finally, when she squeezed her two cards, she saw pocket aces. She seized the moment.

That’s when she pushed all in — more than $400,000, the amount Middletown spent acquiring four downtown buildings and the Manchester Inn.

And when Cincinnati State Technical and Community College announced it was coming to town, Gilleland stacked the chips.

Call her Poker Queen.

Years from now, when Middletown rewrites its history, luring Cincinnati State to Middletown — with the possibility of renewing a dormant downtown — a chapter should be dedicated to Gilleland, 50, who came here four years ago after 3 1/4 years as city manager in Pickerington and 14 years as Centerville’s assistant city manager.

Gilleland, of course, takes little credit. She’s like the poker player who says: “I got good cards.”

She prefers to point the spotlight to city council, city staff and the Middletown community, all who understood the potential.

“It’s not about me,” she said recently while sitting in her office.

Of course it is. Let’s say, Cincinnati State pulled out of the deal, and the city — already hemorrhaging cash and cutting staff — was left holding vacant buildings.

The fingers would have been pointed at her.

The idea of bringing Cincinnati State to Middletown was introduced to Gilleland by the late Perry Thatcher in early 2009. He walked in her office, and in classic Thatcher style said something like: “I’ve been thinking about something.”

When Thatcher died less than one year later, Gilleland said the city “picked up the lead” on the project.

Thatcher courted Cincinnati State. Gilleland proposed to Cincinnati State.

She admits there was “no guarantee” Cincinnati State would come, but she said the potential far outweighed the risk. It was worth the $400,000 gamble. That’s a lot of money to you and me, but in the business world, it’s pennies.

By owning the properties, Gilleland said the city could “control its destiny,” and if the deal failed, the city could find the best possible uses for the properties.

Easy to say now.

Someone told Gilleland that bringing Cincinnati State to Middletown was the most important move for the city in the last 50 years. She never thought about it that way.

The comments gave her “a different perspective.”

Gilleland, who is single, has no children. Only two cats, Niles and Tony. She considers Cincinnati State one of her babies.

Her family portrait also includes Pendleton Art Center and Beauverre Studios.

Twenty years from now — when Gilleland is 70 and hopefully retired but still living in Middletown — she anticipates attending Cincinnati State’s 20th anniversary celebration.

“I’ll be very proud of how the college grew and the economic impact it had on the community,” she said.

She called Cincinnati State part of the city’s positive economic development and “a game changer.”

Just like a pair of aces.

This article and the one that praises how art has brought in hordes of people to downtown just about made me lose my supper.
I wouldn't need a pair of aces as my hold cards if I was playing with the tax payer's money (without their permission) I bet if it was her money she would fold with a pair of bullets.
Ths is exactly why I quit buying the journal,it's so full of crap.matter of fact I would get my land-line backOuch or put in a pay phone before I would ever buy another copy of this garbage.

I had tears in my eyes laughing so hard on that humorist column. McCrabb isn't a journalist, he's a humorist.

Game changer? I think not. A game ender. And there she goes, the Titantic downward. All men for themselves. And Main Street got the first boat...they are paying to pump up their value on your dime. In real poker on a river boat, grounds for the revolver coming out behind the hidden aces in sleeve. As cowardly is McCrabb shilling for Gilleland. You only bring in a college you buy a franchise from, when you can't bring in business. C State played no poker, wouldn't invest a penny into this proposition. No culinary school....Thatcher's dream right....and the majority of buildings sitting empty. Maybe the 8 members on the golf team will keep Weatherwax afloat without raiding the General Fund reserve.

Hey McCrabb, why not include the drain from 25% to 15% under Gilleland. Most would call spending $700,000 and getting $200,000 to be a loser. For McCrab, its called a "game changer." Too much MSNBC and Morning with Joe.

The Journal stopped being a real newspaper years ago. Stopped the Journal in 2000. Not a hometown newspaper anymore. Prints the ca ca we read from McCrabb in this article. Just shook my head while reading this nonsense.

"For most of her career here, Gilleland has sat at a Texas Hold ’Em table, dark sunglasses over her eyes, head buried in her arms."

REWRITE TO READ "HEAD BURIED IN THE SAND"

"And when Cincinnati State Technical and Community College announced it was coming to town, Gilleland stacked the chips.

Call her Poker Queen."

I'D LIKE TO CALL HER SOMETHING ELSE, BUT WOULDN'T BE APPROPRIATE FOR THIS VENUE.

"Years from now, when Middletown rewrites its history, luring Cincinnati State to Middletown — with the possibility of renewing a dormant downtown — a chapter should be dedicated to Gilleland, 50, who came here four years ago after 3 1/4 years as city manager in Pickerington and 14 years as Centerville’s assistant city manager"

YEAH, AND IF THE WRITING OF THE HISTORY HAD ANY VALIDITY TO IT, IT WOULDN'T PAINT A PRETTY PICTURE OF WHAT SHE AND OTHERS HAVE DONE TO THIS TOWN. VERY DESTRUCTIVE AGENDA AND USUALLY THE WRONG PRIORITIES AND DIRECTION.

"She prefers to point the spotlight to city council, city staff and the Middletown community, all who understood the potential."

DEBATABLE ON THE MIDDLETOWN COMMUNITY UNDERSTANDING THE POTENTIAL. I WOULD GUESS THAT ONLY A SMALL PERCENTAGE OF TOWN POPULATION, FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH HER DECISION-MAKING ON BEHALF OF THE MMF'ERS. IT WASN'T HER DECISION. SHE WAS TOLD WHAT TO DO. SINCE WHEN DID GILLELAND EVER MAKE A DECISION ON HER OWN?

“It’s not about me,” she said recently while sitting in her office.

OH YES IT IS. IT'S ABOUT YOU, YOU'RE LITTLE CREW AND THE DESIRES OF THE MMF, OF WHICH YOU ARE A MEMBER. IT IS ABOUT THE BIDDING OF A SMALL LITTLE GROUP CONTROLLING THE MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE, SOME OF WHICH FOLLOW YOU LIKE SHEEP TO SLAUGHTER. THAT'S WHY WE CAN'T EFFECT REAL CHANGE IN THIS CITY BY CANNING MOST OF YOU INEPT PEOPLE.

"Of course it is. Let’s say, Cincinnati State pulled out of the deal, and the city — already hemorrhaging cash and cutting staff — was left holding vacant buildings.

The fingers would have been pointed at her."

STILL MIGHT HAPPEN. JUST GETTING STARTED. NO REAL ACTIVITY AS YET AS TO INTEREST IN THE COLLEGE. NO CURRICULUM HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED. ONLY OCCUPYING THE CG&E BUILDING SO FAR. STILL AT LEAST TWO BUILDINGS THAT ARE MOTHBALLED AND HAVE NO USERS. WHAT ABOUT THEM GILLELAND?

"Someone told Gilleland that bringing Cincinnati State to Middletown was the most important move for the city in the last 50 years. She never thought about it that way"

INCREDIBLE STATEMENT AND ONE THAT ONLY THE MOST NAIVE WOULD BELIEVE. THAT "SOMEONE" WAS FULL OF IT MCCRABB. "MOST IMPORTANT MOVE" IN THE LAST 50.......50 YEARS? NONSENSE.

"She considers Cincinnati State one of her babies.

Her family portrait also includes Pendleton Art Center and Beauverre Studios"

SO FAR, NOT THAT BIG OF IMPACT ON DOWNTOWN. CATERS ONLY TO A FEW SELECT PEOPLE AS TO INTEREST. NO REAL IMPACT UNTIL YOU GET SOMETHING DOWN THERE THAT WOULD APPEAL TO A WIDER AUDIENCE THAN THE ARTZY CROWD.

"Twenty years from now — when Gilleland is 70 and hopefully retired but still living in Middletown — she anticipates attending Cincinnati State’s 20th anniversary celebration.

“I’ll be very proud of how the college grew and the economic impact it had on the community,” she said.

She called Cincinnati State part of the city’s positive economic development and “a game changer.”

MORE EMBELLISHMENT. GLITZY, FLOWERY JOURNALISM, WRITTEN FROM A SUCCESS PERSPECTIVE THAT HASN'T PROVEN TO BE A SUCCESS AS YET. GOOD TO HAVE HOPE. RISKY TO ASSUME A SUCCESS WITHOUT RE-ENFORCEMENT OF EVIDENCE. TO BE OBJECTIVE ABOUT HER ACCOMPLISHMENTS, PERHAPS YOU SHOULD HAVE MENTIONED THE DUNCAN OIL THING, AS WELL AS THE CABINET/ANTIQUES THING AND THE CLEARING OF BUILDINGS FOR THE TRAIN THAT NEVER CAME. HOW ABOUT ALL THE DEMOLITION DOWNTOWN AND THE EMPTY SPACES LEFT WITH NO NEW DEVELOPMENT IN SIGHT? OH, AND HOW ABOUT THE WAY THE EXIT LOOKS OUT BY I-75 AND THE STAGNATION AROUND THE HOSPITAL AREA? SHE HAS HAD FAILURES TO GO ALONG WITH PERCEIVED SUCCESSES. THIS IS WRITTEN AS A ONE-SIDED STORY, MCCRABB. JMO

Art center helps bring new life to downtown
In one year, the Pendleton has attracted many to the area.

MIDDLETOWN - A spotlight directed people to downtown Middletown a year ago when the Pendleton Art Center opened, and many say that energy has not left.
It’s too soon to measure the economic impact of the center, but it draws hundreds to downtown monthly, said Suzanne Sizer, the center’s spokeswoman.
“It shows that there was a need to jump start the arts downtown,” she said. “The interest to be downtown is growing stronger and I think we helped generate that.”
The center, which rents space to artists to showcase their work, has drawn many outside the city to downtown, said Bill Triick, president and CEO of the Chamber of Commerce Serving Middletown, Monroe and Trenton.
“This city didn’t have — until a couple of years ago — a recognizable future.
“Now there is a recognizable future,” Triick said. The Pendleton and downtown are “not going to drive the whole city, but it’s going to drive this portion of the city. People now have confidence and they know it’s going to get better.”
The center — founded by Jim Verdin, president of Cincinnati-based Verdin Bells and Clocks — was the first significant development in years. The Pendleton chain, which includes Cincinnati, Kentucky and Indiana, and media coverage created a newfound buzz for downtown.
While there’s some debate if the center, 1105 Central Ave., was the force that restarted the area’s economic development, most agree the center has been an asset.
“I think that the fact the Pendleton Art Centers have been successful,” Sizer said. “So when we came in, there was plenty of excitement about it, and we filled up right away.”
The center will celebrate its first anniversary Friday during a First Friday event that was started by the Pendleton last year to drive people downtown.
Engine for change
First Friday is a development tool for businesses, said Linda Moorman, co-owner of BeauVerre Stained Glass, which is adjacent to the arts center. The Pendleton has “brought a new flare to the city for people to enjoy the art” and accentuates the city’s rich arts history, said Moorman, who also is the president of the Middletown Convention and Visitors Bureau.
“It’s been a great complement and kind of a driver to get people here,” said Moorman, whose husband, Jay, was instrumental in bringing the Pendleton to downtown. “We want those outside dollars to come into Middletown and be here buying.”

OK, YOU HAVE ALL THAT POSITIVE, HOPEFUL TALK FROM TRIICK, SIZER, MOORMAN AND OTHERS.......

THEN YOU HAVE THIS FROM A BUSINESS OWNER ABOVE BEAUVERRE....

Art Avenue owner Phillip Harrison said First Fridays bring scores of people through his shop above BeauVerre. But if First Fridays don’t bring in immediate sales, they do bring returning visitors to his shop that makes custom frames and sells art on consignment. However, Harrison wants to see development efforts beyond First Fridays.
“There’s a lack of traffic in the downtown area in terms of people being down here, but at least one night a month, that changes,” Harrison said. “The energy is about our expectations more than it is about actual people downtown. We still have a long way to go before we see exciting things on a day-to-day basis.
“Things are moving along, but they are not where they really need to be, and that’s just going to take some time,” he said.

"THE ENERGY IS ABOUT OUR EXPECTATIONS MORE THAN IT IS ABOUT ACTUAL PEOPLE DOWNTOWN"......QUOTE FROM MR. HARRISON.

TWO DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES ON THE WAY IT IS PERHAPS? MORE GLITZ...EMBELLISHMENT OF THE TRUTH?

Its rather amusing how McCrabb enjoys the embellishment of any story he writes. If he wrote one on garbage, it would have some poetic resonance within, to spray perfume amongst the repugnant odor.

As with the "poker" analogy, what a failure. Both HEP and Cincinnati State called Gilleland's bluff years ago. C State ran off with $10 Kk from Middletown "donors" for the President, the rainmaker, and HEP bought buildings at a fire sale, only a fraction to be used but the city will throw them all in, for $200,000., and about $3,000,000 in federal grant funding.

Personally, I would be absolutely humiliated, indeed, embarrassed, to know this project was such a failure and one the city had to do everything to make this "no risk" to State and HEP, to mildly refer to it as a success and its future positive. But I live in a different world, the commercial world, where results and performance dictate recognition, not gross incompetency and failure is glossed over with platitudes.

There is nothing praise worthy of this endeavor. And residents should be enraged Main Street is using city funds to protect their valuation, under the cloak of Cincinnati State. If education was such a mega-market in Middletown, why isn't MUM exploding?

As usual, Middletown is the follower. The Moorman's command the strategy. If a successful business downtown was producing fishing lures, the city would be giving buildings away from ancillary businesses such as taxidermy, gun shops, and fishing boats. State and HEP called Gilleland's bluff, there was no poker game played, they won, Middletown lost. But thankfully there is a UDF gas station. There is a victory somewhere to be found isn't there. They do occasionally have 3 pints of Homemade for $5 bucks on sale.

Cincinnati State branch developer seeks $1M in federal funds

By http://www.middletownjournal.com/services/staff/1317913.html - Michael D. Pitman , Staff Writer 9:33 PM Tuesday, May 1, 2012

    MIDDLETOWN — The developer for the Cincinnati State Middletown campus is seeking $1 million — nearly half of the total project cost — from a federal agency.
    City Council unanimously approved an emergency resolution Tuesday night to allow Higher Education Partners to apply for a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Section 108 loan.
    The $1 million loan request is 46.5 percent of the total $2.15 million projected cost to complete phase one of the campus, which will be located on the first, third and part of the sixth floors and the basement of the former CG&E building at 1 N. Main St.
    “The financing shortage could jeopardize both short-term construction and long-term viability of the Middletown campus,” according to a report by Doug Adkins, Middletown Community Revitalization director.
    Last month, Cincinnati State Technical & Community College signed a 20-year deal with Higher Education Partners that will bring the Cincinnati-based college to the city. The city then signed a deal with HEP to sell the former CG&E building at
1 N. Main St. for $202,000 and donate the former senior center building to become the basis of the Cincinnati State
campus.
    HEP “will execute corporate and personal guarantees” for the loan and the two buildings will be held as collateral, according Adkins’ report. If HEP defaults on the loan, the city’s future Community Development Block Grant funding would be used to pay off the loan, but Adkins wrote there has never been a default on a Section 108 loan.
    The loan request was part of the deal between the city and HEP. In order to apply for the loan, HEP had to make a formal request to the city. The application will be submitted to HUD after May 9.
    “These two prominent downtown sites will be used as part of a collaborative revitalization effort that will utilize significant private investment,” according to the letter from HEP’s Bill Luster.

Doug Adkins once again fails to tell the truth.  Section 108 loans have been around for a long time.  There have been failures.  Oklahoma City is one example where a 108 loan defaulted in the 1990's.

Date Posted: May 03 2012 at 5:19am
Sorry, Ms. Moon, but Adkins is not technically lying.  Even if HEP "defaults" on the loan, "the Section 108 loan will not be in default" because HUD will automatically begin making payments from any and all CBDG funds due to the City of Middletown until the Section 108 loan is fully repaid.  Therefore, even though HEP may default, "the Section 108 loan" will never be in default unless congress stops funding the CDBG program.
 
A clever bit of legal weasel wording by Mr. Adkins.
 
Of course if all CBDG funds have to go towards repaying this loan, then the city officials that live in historic districts will have to find some other way to fund their landscaping and property maintenance--I mean "neighborhood beautification"--at public expense.

Middletown business community key to college’s success

MIDDLETOWN — Cincinnati State’s investment is in downtown, but the school’s president wants the entire city involved to help get people jobs and to provide training.

“We exist for you” is the message Cincinnati State Technical & Community College President Dr. O’dell Owens wants delivered to the business community

People will come down to Middletown as a destination,” he said. “Middletown will grow.”

Middletown City Manager Judy Gilleland agreed.

“I absolutely agree with him mentioning that Cincinnati State will be an economic driver for the downtown area,” said Gilleland. “Cincinnati State has already proven they have a strong interest in working with local businesses, and I definitely believe there will be spin off businesses supported by the students.”

“That’s what we really need to hear, and that’s what Cincinnati State needs to hear for their programs,” she said. “They need to know what employment is out there and what the employers need.”

GOOD CHEERLEADING EFFORT JUDITH.

“It’s as simple as we exist for you,” Owens said of the business community. “What ever you need, we can provide.”

SO, CINCY STATE IS GOING TO DESIGN THEIR CURRICULUM BASED ON FEEDBACK FROM THE BUSINESS LEADERS? ("WHAT EVER YOU NEED, WE CAN PROVIDE") KINDA LATE IN THE GAME ISN'T IT? GONNA START UP HERE SHORTLY AND STILL TRYING TO ASSEMBLE A CURRICULUM TO OFFER? IF THE GOAL WAS TO TAILOR THE COURSE OFFERINGS TO THE NEEDS OF AREA BUSINESSES, SHOULDN'T THAT HAVE DONE LONG AGO IN THE BEGINNING PHASES OF THIS PROJECT?....JUST TO SEE IF THERE WAS INTEREST IN STARTING A SCHOOL HERE? DON'T SEE ANY NEW REPORTED NUMBERS OF STUDENTS SIGNING ON WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE ONE GOING INTO HOTEL MANAGEMENT. ANYONE HEARD WHAT THE CURRENT COUNT IS AS TO STUDENT ENROLLMENT?

Let me help both Ms. G and Dr. Owens out. When the economic is stagnant and companies can turn a nice 10% or above marginal return on the number of employees they have, regardless of whether you have an MBA in finance, a law degree from Georgetown, a teaching degree from Miami, or a psychology degree from Tufts or Vassar, the graduate is competing with thousands of others, all fully equipped, that cannot find a job. In North Carolina, paralegals are supplanted today by attorneys who can't get jobs and take paralegal jobs at their price pt. The need is in healthcare, that's what HEP's business model is focused. To state they will offer every program they have is ludicrous. 

Butler Cty will never sustain an increase in job demand associated with Cincinnati State. Middletown doesn't have the employer base that can use the graduates. Neither does the city nor county. More fireman, more police officers? No way.

Cousin Vinny's is hiring, maybe they'd like one that has a good driving record and can pass a drug test.

The oratory that comes out of public officlals makes one cringe. Perhaps the airport could use a two year program in aeronautical engineering so new employees could pack parachutes?  

Lets make this super easy Dr. Owens. Companies don't need alot of workers, no matter what you provide. They aren't hiring. Get it.

Colleges pour millions into construction

More than $461M will be invested in area campus construction projects.

By Meagan Pant, Staff Writer 12:06 AM Monday, May 7, 2012

More than $461 million will be invested in new buildings and major renovations on college campuses in the region in the coming years, bringing businesses to the area and signaling the continued growth of the higher education industry locally.

“Companies go where there is talent. By us ensuring that we have strong talent coming out of our higher education facilities, we are locking in one of those economic development tools that we need to attract and retain businesses,” said Chris Kershner, a local expert on public policy and economic development.

With a mix of public funding, private donations, institutions’ resources and public-private partnerships, local colleges and universities are engaged in multimillion-dollar projects creating all types of jobs from architects to skilled labor, said Sean Creighton, executive director of the Southwestern Ohio Council for Higher Education.

After two years of no funding from the state for capital improvements, Ohio has dedicated $400 million to infrastructure of its 37 public colleges and universities.

The work is important in meeting the demands of increasing enrollment and attracting new students, educators say.

Excerpt:

Cincinnati State Technical & Community College

Nearly $3.07 million is being invested in Cincinnati State’s new downtown Middletown branch campus. At least 200 students will be taking classes there this fall in the former CG&E building, the school’s first branch campus in Butler County.

Cincinnati State president urges community to help guide students

By Eric Robinette, Staff Writer 9:34 PM Thursday, May 10, 2012

     FAIRFIELD — An “army of hearts” needs to march in the world as the blight that has affected inner city schools is making its way to suburban ones, the president of Cincinnati State Technical and Community College said Thursday night.
    Dr. O’dell Owens spoke before an audience of about 300 people at
Fairfield High School
’s Performing Arts Center, urging the audience to be the light that someone needs to succeed.
     “If I lit a candle right now, it would have no impact in this room. But turn off all the lights and make this room dark, one little light would light this room. It will show the way for someone. Each of us has that power within us,” he said.
    Owens talked about how up until the third grade, students learn to read, but after that point they read to learn. If students can’t read in third grade, without tremendous intervention, “You’re finished,” Owens said.
    “Education is a gift from the past to the present to ensure our future,” Owens said. “Every single one of those kids are going to be around, and where do we want them? In the classroom, or on the corner in a white T-shirt with their pants hanging down selling dope?”
   
Fairfield
has its share of disenfranchised students, said Superintendent Paul Otten.
    “We have those kids who come in and out of our classrooms every day,” he said. “We must never lose sight of every student that walks through our doors.”
    Owens noted that people tend to sit back and not get involved until those problems come into their neighborhoods. Owens talked about crack, marijuana and ecstasy, saying, “Those are the same drugs you’re going to find here in
Fairfield
, except you are surrounded by methamphetamine ... they’re surrounding you and your children ... even though the highest rate of drug sales are in the city, the overdoses are in the county.”
    That’s why “we need to get involved before it’s at our door,” he said.
   
Cincinnati State will soon open a campus in Middletown
, and Owens said that would be an economic driver for the city and the surrounding area.
    “I think it’s an opportunity for kids here to go up to
Middletown as well. We’re going to have a hybrid where a lot of our courses will be online,” he said.

I wonder how many of those online students will be coming downtown for a $8 hamburger after class?

They're college kids. Unless Mom and Dad give 'em money for that $8 gourmet hamburger, they'll be heading for the McDonalds drive thru for those $1 double cheesburgers. I would imagine the same would apply to most of Middletown on the salaries people make in this town. Probably no gourmet food on their plates either. Again, the new restaurant, judging by the description of food given and the atmosphere chosen, probably will only interest a small percentage of the population of this town. JMO

Off the rails again....who ever said Stained was supposed to cater to the few dozen Cincy St kids?  I've read no mention that their target market is 22 years with little money.

I know of at least 10 families in Middletown that have net worth of over $50 Mm, or .5 unit folks, as we call them in a Texas, a unit is $100 Mm net worth, so Ross Perot would be a 100 unit cowboy.

There are more than enough professional individuals to keep both the Bistro and Stefano's hopping. The question will be are those with ample disposable income going to be spread out in numbers enough 6 nights a week, to make a profit for Bistro, Stefano's, and the others around? That's a matter only of the desire to eat out. I can walk in LasRosa's on Wednesday, and only see 2-3 people eating in an hr and a half.

The money is in the city to support two restaurants. But, the money has the food tab at Brown's Run to make each month, I think I pay about $60.00 there, and is it worth tipping $20.00 each week for a bill. But, there are enough with more than ample disposable income to fill the house every night. Its up to Stefano and the Bistro to get them there.

acclaro,
Well said.  I see it the same way.  The Bistro will be a success provided they can give the people what they want.  If the success of the Red Onion is an indication they will be able to do that.  Provided Stefano's keeps up their quality, service, etc, they will continue to be successful.  There are more than enough people in Middletown with enough disposable income to support the two of them and Brown's Run.
