Rat issue
gnawing at
council,
residents
By Debra Pascoe
Editor

Apparently
cooler
weather is bringing more
rats out into the open.
Several city councilmembers mentioned at
the Oct. 21 council meeting resident complaints
about rat sightings have
increased over the past
few months while one
councilman said he’s partially winning the battle
against the varmints on
his home turf.
“Nothing irritates me
more than when I turn on
the news and they’re talking about rats in St. Clair
Shores,” Couincilman
Pete Rubino said, referring to a recent television
news report during which
two residents expressed
their dissatisfaction with
the city’s response to
their rat problem.
Rubino turned to City
Manager Phil Ludos for
an explanation.
Ludos said according to

inspection logs and city
records, the city worked
diligently to eradicate the
issue. But in the end it
was the homeowner’s decision to have rat bait
boxes removed from their
property that tied the
city’s hands.
“The assertion was this
council and my staff
failed to respond to their
needs,” Ludos said. “I
think the staff extended
itself well over and above
in an effort to take care of
the issue.”
Ludos said the city is
still reviewing a citywide
abatement plan and recently identified another
piece of property that
needs attention.
Councilman
Tony
Tiseo, who divulged this
summer he, too, was having rat issues, reported
work to correct his
house’s foundation and
driveway has cleared up
most of the problem. Bait

Golf course
capital fund
paying off
By Debra Pascoe
Editor

A $1 per round assessment
instituted
in
January 2012 to golfers
using the city’s course is
starting to pay off.
Golf
Course
Superintendent
Tim
Dorner asked permission
to begin the second in a
several phase upgrade
program developed by
the
Golf
Course
Committee to improve
the course.
Dorner told council
bridges installed in about
1992 are worse for wear
and two are in desperate
need of repair and should
be addressed “sooner
than later.”
One bridge, he said, is
submerged during heavy
rains and high waters in
the stream running below.
He explained the committee is reviewing different repair options for two
bridges constructed of cement with steel abutments. The wood is
what’s in poor shape,
Dorner said.
One option is pouring a
four-inch concrete slab
on top and elevating the
other that becomes submerged.

The plan is to spread
construction over 12 to 14
months as the money becomes available in the
capital improvement
fund, Dorner said, adding
some bridges need minor
repairs, but are still safe.
Plans include having
the golf course staff demo
the bridges in need of replacement to save an estimated $2,000 per bridge.
A bigger challenge is
getting the financing to
repair the cart paths
which Dorner said are too
narrow and not installed
with an adequate base.
Replacing the entire path
system is estimated to
cost about $350,000 with
a proposal to complete
the project over a fiveyear period.
The bridge repairs are
the second project financed by the capital
fund, the first being updating the golf cart fleet
by replacing batteries to
extend their usefulness
for four to five years.
Councilwoman
Candice Rusie reiterated
golfers using the course
are paying for the improvements that benefit
them. The bridges, she
said, have been an issue
“for quite some time.”

South Lake High
School honored 74 current seniors with a special
event in the school auditorium Tuesday, Oct 22,
for their individual
achievements on the ACT
and Michigan Merit
Exam test the previous
year as juniors.
The event included certificates of recognition,
wristbands that allow students special privileges at
the school, as well as gift
cards, games and raffle
prizes purchased with do-

nations made by high
school staffers.
“We have pep rallies for
athletics,” said South

with his classmates.
The school staff donated in excess of $1,200
which turned into 33 prizes raffled off to 73 students who scored an 18 or
higher on their ACT
when they took the test in
March of 2012.
“Last year, 147 students
completed a series of
tests in March of 2013, as
juniors,” she told the student body and parents at
the assembly. “Today, we
want to give special applause to the Class of

2014. Thank you for your
contributions to our
school.”
The initiative is part of
a bigger plan which has
seen South Lake’s test
scores rise from the bottom five percent to the
18th percentile in 2013.
“I believe that it takes a
village to raise a child,
and it takes a community
to raise a school,”
Kennedy said. “All of us
have a stake in this, in this
school, in these students.

He won’t be late

A white male described
as 6 feet tall, 180 pounds
wearing jeans and a
hoodie walked out of the
Kmart on Nine Mile with

seven sports and designer watches Tuesday, Oct.
22, at 2:53 p.m.
The store’s loss prevention officer told police the
man took the watches out
of their packaging, con-

cealed them on his person and exited the store
without paying for them.
He ran out of the store
toward the apartment
complex to the south of
the store. Police called to
the scene and those patrolling the area were unable to locate him.

boxes at the rear of his
property, however, are
still showing activity.
The work he did passed
inspection, but his house
remains on the follow-up
list.
His concern, however,
is when his property is inspected, not all the bait
boxes are being checked.
Reviewing the inspection logs, Tiseo said he
has identified the rats are
coming from the rear of
his property.
“We keep baiting and
sure, we’re still killing

rats,” he said, adding reports indicate rat bait
boxes near his house are
showing no activity while
those placed in the rear
yard are “being hit.”
In addition, he reported
residents have complained to him their bait
boxes haven’t been
checked “in more than a
month.”
Ludos said he’s look into those addresses.
Councilman
Chris
Vitale called a bank –
owned vacant house on
the city’s north end to
Ludos’ attention where
he said garbage, high
weeds, brush covering rat

burrows and other
known harborages exist.
He sent pictures to Ludos
for review.
C o m m u n i t y
Development
and
Inspection Director Chris
Rayes said he’s been in
contact with the bank and
nothing has been done as
of yet.
Vitale asked City
Attorney Robert Ihrie if
the city could clear the
property and bill the bank
for the expenses.
Ihrie said different
properties have different
rules and he’d look into
how the city can take care
of the problem.

St. Clair Shores has
unique assets that make
us a destination including
the waterfront and all its’
trappings, the Nautical

As in business, the city
must identify its present

The TIFA is an important economic development tool. Though city officials used TIFA dollars
to promote downtown
events for the first time
this year, I prefer this
money go toward more
permanent enhancements like capital improvements, repairs, and
maintenance.
Which city departments do you feel need
additional oversight and
why?
We need a strong ethics
ordinance to provide
oversight and direction to
all our city departments
and employees. At minimum, the ordinance
should reveal conflicts of
interest, ban gifts to decision-makers, and crack
down on cronyism and
nepotism in hiring and
contracting.
What
are
your
thoughts about the city’s
involvement with tax
foreclosure properties?
The city has sold some
tax foreclosed properties
and turned a profit. I
would ensure these sales
require competitive bidding to ensure the best
price for taxpayers and
prevent insider dealing.
The mayor has discussed several projects,
such as expanding the
senior center and building a community center.
Do you favor these or do
you have other ideas?
Please offer suggestions
how these plans could be
financed and implemented.
Atop the list of essential
projects for the city is an
expansion of the Senior
Activities Center to include an up-to-date fitness center for our growing senior population.
This is a project I will
push for first.

In the past 2 years, city

Increment
Finance
Authority?
A benefit of a TIFA district is that it allows us to
retain funds for reinvestment within the city that
would otherwise be collected by other taxing entities. This funding is
used not only for improvement of the TIFA
district but also for maintenance of the TIFA district, taking the burden
off of the city’s general
and other funds.
I’ve heard suggestions
of abolishing our current
TIFA district and establishing a TIFA district in
another area of the city to
encourage growth and
development there. Given
how TIFAs are structured
and financed by capturing tax increment after a
baseline is established, it
likely would be a long

time before any tax increment would be created to
collect and finance improvements in a new district. With our current
TIFA district, we already
have created increment
which is collected annually. We also have infrastructure in the current
district maintained by
TIFA dollars.
Council is still awaiting
the TIFA members to deliver a new proposal for
the current TIFA district. I
hope this proposal will be
developed taking into account feedback from all
stakeholders – the TIFA,
taxpayers, including residents and the area business community, city
council, the parks and
recreation department
and its commission.
It should be something
all of our residents can
enjoy. It needs to be within TIFA’s means to fund
and achieve so that TIFA
can make any and all
bond payments without
needing a subsidy from
our general fund.
why?
Oversight of city departments falls squarely
within the jurisdiction
and authority of city administration, not city
council. Per the city charter, the city manager is in
charge of the day-to-day
operations of the city.
In his short time here so
far, I have seen the new
city manager working to
emphasize increased responsiveness, follow-up,
and follow-through from
all departments — not only to requests from councilmembers, but also residents. I support him in his
efforts to increase communication and accountability across the board. I
also would encourage
him to pay particular attention to any departments whose actions carry legal implications and
consequences upon our
residents to ensure fairness in process and procedure.
What
are
your
Each year, the county
offers us a batch of tax
foreclosed properties to
purchase for the amount
of back taxes. We are allowed no interior inspections and we have to purchase all of the properties
offered or none. If we
choose none, the county
auctions the properties
and we are responsible
for any amounts of back
taxes the proceeds of the
auction sale do not satisfy. If we choose to purchase them, we can resell
them on the market and
keep any profits for city
use. The city has chosen
to purchase these properties.
There is no question
these properties should
be made safe and habitable before the city sells
them to a private owner.
But some of the improvements the city pays for
(interior as well as exterior) are unnecessary and
are based mainly on the
personal aesthetics of administration or the “tax

foreclosure subcommittee” members and I’d like
to see these reigned in. As
this is a mayor-created
subcommittee, I’d like the
mayor to better define the
subcommittee’s scope of
responsibilities. Also, I’d
like administration to
track how much time is
spent on each property.
For some properties, administration
spends
much time debating with
the subcommittee about
things like paint colors or
shrubbery and this is time
that could be spent on
tasks for the residents. I’d
like to see this factored
into the “expenditure” accounting we use to determine how much, if any,
profit was made after the
sale of each property.
We have an aging population in the city. The
Senior Center offers our
seniors vital support in a
number of ways — nutritionally and emotionally,
socially and physically
and help with chores and
transportation, just to
name a few. During my
time on council, the council already has supported
improvements to our senior center as it currently
exists — including bocce
ball canopies, new computers and renovated restrooms with new showers. As the council liaison
to the Older Persons’
Advisory Commission, I
have been involved in many discussions with members of the center regarding what other developments they’d like to see.
These include an expanded exercise room that
would help us attract an
increased membership,
especially among younger seniors. We also need
to improve the administrative office space to
make it more accessible.
We are in the stages of developing drawings of a
proposed expansion to
use to attract donors or
corporate sponsors for
the project. Once we have
the drawings we also can
explore potential grant
availability.
Regarding the construction of a new general
community center building, I’ve only heard very
preliminary discussion at
this point. I believe more
examination and dialogue is needed to determine its location, its size
and what features would
be most realistic, most desired, and most used by
our residents. We need to
understand costs associated not just with construction but also with
maintenance and operations annually, and so a
feasibility study would also be in order.
How should the city

neighboring communities do not. We have our
own fire department and
ambulance service. We
have a strong parks and
recreation department
and a vibrant senior center. We have a dog park, a
municipal swimming
pool and lakefront parks.
We have a library with a
wide variety of resources
and programming. We
have restaurants and
shopping unique to us.
Some of the best marketing is done by “word
of mouth.” Unfortunately,
too often I’ve heard frustrations from local business owners regarding
some of our more restrictive ordinances and practices that hurt their ability
to do business and succeed. These frustrations
spread to the broader
business communities
and give the city a negative impression in the
minds of people who may
otherwise invest in the

city.
In response, we’ve already revised a number
of such ordinances and
months ago I proposed
we form a committee to
analyze business ordinances to ensure the city
is an attractive, competitive place for business.
I’ve noticed increased
participation at events
since we launched the
city’s Facebook page in
February 2010. I’m proud
that it now reaches more
than 10,000 Facebook users.
Earlier this year, we also launched our new city
website that helps us
spread the word. Also,
with the city’s and residents’ support, the volunteers on our committees
have been working hard
to offer new events and to
work on changing and
improving their traditional events to attract more
participants, spectators,
visitors and guests.
offerings?
First and foremost, we


need to continue fiscal responsibility and conscientious stewardship of
our resources. In my almost four years on council we’ve tackled structural budget issues and reduced non-essential general fund spending by
millions while protecting
the “rainy day fund” even
in very tough economic
times.
But we haven’t stopped
investing and improving
our city and its infrastructure. In this time we’ve also replaced roads and water mains, planted new
trees, made improvements to city buildings
and parks, bought new
vehicles, kept the streetlights on and converted
most to LED and developed a new website.
We’re building a new
courthouse using money
not from property taxes
but rather from a dedicated “piggy bank” fund and
a dedicated revenue
stream (a fee on tickets).
To continue improving
the city, we need to continue smart saving, smart
spending, and smart investment.
We also need to continue resident- and business-friendly services,
initiatives and communication. Our administration needs to increase accountability, fairness and

When choosing a healthcare center for yourself or a
loved one, there is no greater comfort than knowing
that people are there for you who truly care,
and who are committed to your health,
comfort, well-being and peace of mind.

“customer service” at city
hall – and we all need to
recognize that residents
are our bosses, not our
customers.
Although it’s not
unique to this city, we
need to work on tackling
the rodent issue. Among
other things, I’ve suggested we investigate forming
a “consortium” with our
neighboring communities as was done in
Oakland County to create
“economies of scale” to
reduce costs, to get us all
on the “same page” and
create the possibility of
obtaining state grant
money to help us with
this cause.

Students come together to fight hunger
Staff Writer

Students from Lake Shore,
South Lake and Lakeview high
schools gathered at St.
Margaret of Scotland last
Thursday afternoon with one
purpose in mind — pack thousands of meals for Kids Against
Hunger.
“It’s fabulous to see this kind
of response from these students,” said Macomb County
Health Department Director
William Ridella.
“It’s such a great opportunity
for these students to get involved and I think it helps them
realize that there is such a
great need for this right here in
our own community.
“We do have hunger in this
community, not just in other areas. It’s an opportunity to really
focus on these initiatives and

really drive home the point
about the importance of food
systems and food security.”
The event, which was part of
several National Food Day efforts put on by the county, included
the
Shorewood
Kiwanis.
“They reached out to us,”
said Shorewood Kiwanis member Kimberly Browning. “For
the past 13 years we’ve developed a good relationship with
the health department. They
were wondering if we would be
interested in sponsoring the
event. We said that would be
great.”
Browning, who is also a Key
Club advisor, said she wanted
to make sure she got students
involved and recruited them to
help.
“I really wanted to get the
kids in high school involved,”

she said. “I just thought it
would be great for them to get
involved with it.
“We want to be able to build
and develop new leaders in the
community. We reached out to
the three different principals,
key clubs and the Youth
Council and they came out.”
Dozens of students found
their way to the 13 Mile church
gymnasium, donned hair nets
and gloves and began packaging thousands of meals.
These meals, according to
Ridella, not only help hungry
people in faraway lands, but
those in town.
“One-third actually stays
right here at St. Margaret in
their food pantry,” he said. “It’s
needed right here. Another
third is kept for emergencies
and another third goes to na- South Lake High School student Lizzy Michaelson measures out

Where to Find It!

why?
This is the job of the
city manager. The reason
I nominated Mr. Ludos is I
felt he could handle these
issues. He has already implemented a system
where his department
heads will go through a
series of reviews. This is
something no previous
manager has done recently.
Since Mr. Ludos runs
the day to day operations
he is the absolute best to
determine if a department needs additional
oversight. I know that
there have been issues
with certain departments
and our manager is addressing them.
Our city government is
designed to have a strong
city manager. If council
has issues with a department, they need to hold
the city manager accountable. The manager then
needs to address any issues.

ST. CLAIR SHORES

When you look at the
program as a whole, it
has been a great success! It has added an influx of cash to the general
fund and helped build
stronger neighborhoods,
which has helped (our
property) values rise. Just
ask the neighbors of
these homes. They have
expressed great pleasure
in the program.
If money were not an
object, they would be
great things to enhance
our city. Unfortunately
money is a big issue. The
problem is, I have seen no
plans or funding ideas for
these types of projects.
Therefore I feel it would
be very irresponsible to

speculate.
How should the city
city events.
Our city is truly on an
upswing. We were just
listed as the best city to
live in in Macomb County.
But there are things we
can do to improve our image.
One thing is to stay out
of the news for things like
our rodent issue! I understand people’s frustrations. I have been pushing for a plan for a while
now. If elected, that will
be one of my top priorities. As far as events, we
have some great events.
We also have some that
are not so well received. I
like the idea of bringing
some of these smaller
events together. This
would create fewer, but
larger events. Bringing
people to the city is important and this may
help.
offerings?
Before adding offerings
I believe we need to ensure we do the absolute
best to provide top notch
core services. We are on
our way, but there is still
room to improve. This in
itself will bring in new
families and homeowners
to our city. I believe this
model already has helped
us grow.
While other cities are
cutting police, fire and
recreation, we have been
able to maintain or improve these types of services. That is why I believe our real estate is rising quicker than some of
neighbors and we were
rated highly in the current study. We need to
work hard to continue
this pace.

Passing counterfeit
cash
A woman working at a
salon next door to the
CVS in the 3400 block of
Harper was questioned
for using a counterfeit
$10 bill when making a
purchase Tuesday, Oct.
22, at 12:08 p.m.
The woman told police
she believes she got the
bill as change from a previous purchase she made
at an office supply store.

Stealing from mom?
A 44-year-old Roseville
woman is being accused
by her sister living in St.
Clair Shores of taking
about $5,000 from their
mother who suffers from
dementia.
The Shores woman told
police her sister forged
her mother’s name on


checks and made unauthorized withdrawals
from her mother’s bank
account over the past six
months.
The Shores woman,
who is her mother’s primary care giver, provided
police with documentation supporting her
claims.
Police are investigating.

Lifting liquor
An unidentified frequent visitor of the Rite
Aid store in the 23000
block of Marter made off
with three bottles of liquor from the store at
2:53 p.m. Tuesday, Oct.
22.
The white man, wearing a leather jacket over a
hoodie and jeans, took
three assorted bottles of
liquor off the shelves and
stuffed them into the
hoodie before heading

AUTOS BY JENNY KING

New Pathfinder lighter, better mileage

A

couple of
years ago
Nissan
sought to
make it
clear its Pathfinder was no
wimp. It’s not a crossover,
the company said; it’s a
real SUV built in a ladderstyle truck frame, with
considerable towing capability and a couple of
hefty engines.
For 2013, however,
Nissan quietly changed
gears, introducing its
fourth generation redesigned Pathfinder: a lighter vehicle with up-to-date
safety technology and
more attention to fuel
economy.
And the 2013 Pathfinder,
built in Smyrna, Tenn., has
joined the ranks of the
popular crossovers.
According to Phil
Lienert, Nissan spokesman, the latest Pathfinder
is a mid-sized SUV built on

a unibody as opposed to a
body-on-frame — truck —
platform.
“For registration purposes, it would still be a
truck, though, due to its
size, off-road ability and
towing capability,” said
Lienert.
The automaker claims
many best-in-category
features with this latest
Pathfinder. One of the
most important, we think,
is its exclusive use of a
continuously variable
transmission — its nextgeneration Xtronic CVT.
This transmission, Nissan
said, is able to increase
combined city/highway fuel economy by 30 percent
compared with the earlier,
thirsty V-6-equipped
Pathfinder with five-speed
traditional automatic
transmission.
Fuel economy for the
2013 Pathfinder with
3.5-liter V-6 is rated at 26
highway, 20 city and 22

miles per gallon combined
for the two-wheel-drive
model. Subtract one mile
per gallon in each category for a V-6 Pathfinder
with all-wheel drive.
The new, smaller V-6 engine with 260 horsepower
and CVT maintains nearly
the same horsepower as
the previous generation’s
larger displacement 4.0-liter, 266 horsepower V-6,
Nissan said. The CVT is
designed to hold the engine at the ideal rpms for
the conditions at hand,
providing power for passing, merging or towing
and efficient running at
cruising speeds or around
town.
With its available “intuitive” four-wheel drive,
Pathfinder claims to be the
only vehicle in its mid-size
class with selectable 2WD,
Auto or 4WD Lock modes
in its ALL-MODE 4X4-i
system. The system lets
the driver choose full-time

The redesigned Pathfinder features a continuously variable transmission that
improves fuel economy.
2WD for maximum fuel
economy, Auto mode to
automatically monitor
conditions and adjust the
balance of power between
front and rear wheels for
best traction, or 4WD Lock
mode when desired. In addition, standard hill start
assist helps add control
when starting and driving
away on a steep incline —
both four and two-wheeldrive models.
Nissan said the standard
5,000-pound towing capacity of the Pathfinder
makes it tops in its market
class. The more muscular
third-generation
Pathfinders boasted 6,000
and 7,000-pound towing
capacities.

exit to the last row.
The 60/40-split middle
row features Latch and
Glide technology that allows forward movement
and access to the third row
with a child safety seat remaining securely in place
on the passenger curb
side.
Pathfinder’s unibody
platform equals a flat floor
for improved interior flexibility and more space.
Overall interior roominess
has been increased by 8.4
cubic feet versus the 2012
Pathfinder design.
The third row seat, a
50/50 split-folding design,
reclines — a feature not offered with other utility vehicles in its class, according to Nissan.

third row seats fold flat for

Wow.
The test Pathfinder was
a 2013 SL 4X4, with a base
price of $36,070.
This included heated
driver, front passenger
and second-row seats,
leather-wrapper steering
wheel, remote engine

control, rearview monitor,
rear sonar, heated outside
mirrors and a power liftgate.
Single options included
roof rail cross bars, $300;
carpeted floor mats, $200;
illuminated kick plates,
$275; and a trailer tow
package, $400.
Pathfinder is available in
four models: S, SV SL and
,
Platinum. Prices start at
around $28,000.
A hybrid Pathfinder is
available for the 2014
model year.
