Treasurer Al Sluka, in the "Open Lines" publication of the Garfield schools, said this levy will be unique because it will combine two emergency levies that are coming due in each of the next two years into one ballot issue. He said the issue will not raise taxes but instead renew previously approved levies from the community in 2010 and 2011. And, Sluka noted, combining the renewal levies will save taxpayer dollars on election costs. served in the U.S. Navy in World War II, and supported the Cleveland Childrens' Museum, the Cleveland Art Museum, the Bedford Historical Society, served as chairman of Bedford Buildings and Grounds, and was instrumental in the preservation of the 1832 Hezekiah Dun"Any delays that we've had so far," ham house and the 1892 Old Mallis said, "have been due to workChurch on the Square. ing with AT&T and getting them to "Jack is a very dear friend of the get all the lines in order.

LaMalfa said he hopes to work with the mayor and his administration as they continue their tough fight to improve the city’s financial situation. He said he was initially concerned that Mayor Vic Collova’s administration might continue policies that caused the city’s fiscal emergency. However, after seeing that this is not the case, LaMalfa said he decided to declare his intention to be part of the team that solves problems together. “As a 45-year resident of Ward 2 and a proud graduate of the Garfield Heights City Schools, I know Garfield Heights has many caring residents, dedicated city employ- Gerard Atwood, owner of the R ees, a strong infrastructure and fine Bar & Lounge where a fatal shootcommunity resources," said LaMalfa. ing occurred in late January, spoke “Like other cities, Garfield Heights on the incident at Maple Heights also faces challenges," he said.

Wheeling Island (Continued from Page 1) currently has at least one lawsuit pending against city officials, which he had filed in early January in federal court, against Mayor Jeffrey Lansky, Council President Jackie Albers and Law Director John Montello. Brownlee has stated that Lansky violated his civil rights by publishing private income tax information. Lansky filed suit against Brownlee in October, accusing him and Brownlee's wife, Lynde, of defamation due to statements made on their website, Maple Heights News. This lawsuit is pending in Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court. Councilman Anthony Cefaratti stated, "I would like to state, on the record, that I believe by passing this legislation that there will be another lawsuit filed. I am not sure of that, I'm not positive, but given the track record of lawsuits flying around, it will probably happen. And I think we will be expending more taxpayers' money on lawyers' fees, and I don't agree with that. Also, I don't agree with some of the actions Mr. Brownlee's done, but if council wants to go ahead and do that, it's their choice."

HELP WANTED HELP WANTED SLAVIC VILLAGE Robbery A man who makes pickups and deliveries to the Dolloff Food Mart near East 55th St. told police he was robbed at gunpoint by two males while he was in his work truck in the parking lot on February 5, about 7:50 p.m. He said he and his partner walked into the store to make a pickup, and only he returned to the truck on the passenger side, while his partner remained in the store. A few minutes later, he said a man with dreadlocks opened the passenger side door, pointed a gun at him, and said, "Where is it at?" The victim told the man he did not have any money, and said a second man got into the truck and took money out of the center console. According to the victim, the second male then told the gunman to shoot him for lying. When the victim heard this, he said he curled into a ball and heard one gun shot, and saw the males running towards Caleb Court. It was unclear in the report where the gunman aimed, but no one reported any injuries. When police questioned the man's partner, he said he was inside the store when he heard one gun shot and told police that within seconds his partner came into the store saying they had been robbed. Police found one shell casing in the parking lot which was collected as evidence and searched for the suspects with negative results. The store owner said he may have caught the incident on security cameras but the video was unable to be viewed by police at the time of the report.
