Ohio (WKEF)-- The City of Trotwood is making some big investments into a number of infrastructure projects Kysha Hancock caught up with the city to see what they have planned and why now is a good time for upgrades "This year we have about a million dollars and those revenues to spend on residential upkeeping we do have some grants as well through ODOT and MVRPC," said Stephanie Kellum Kellum said they’re excited to introduce the new infrastructure projects with the goal of helping the city thrive One of those projects includes road resurfacing throughout several neighborhoods "Denlinger Road is one...we'll be paving from Westbrook Road to Salem Avenue and then Shiloh Springs," said Kellum Kellum told Hancock because Trotwood’s water lines are over 50 years old this is also another project they will be doing on both Eppington and Macmillan Drives She said unclean water will reduce health concerns for residents and other issues “You don't want a lot of water main breaks because that's a break in service for citizens...if it’s a person who has diabetes or even not having water is a major health concern," said Kellum Trotwood will be included in the countywide initiative to demolish blighted structures the county will be demolishing 151 vacant homes The city said this initiative pushes to improve the appearance of neighborhoods throughout the city and the overall safety “We’re very pleased to see our homeowners and homebuyers are still interested in building in the City of Trotwood," said Kellum Kellum said some of these projects could be completed as early as this fall Ohio (WKEF) -- A new moratorium on group homes was approved by the Trotwood City Council on Monday Group homes have been popping up in neighborhoods throughout Montgomery County Trotwood's moratorium will stop new group homes from coming into the city for the one-year period it is in place It is the second city to do so with a moratorium recently Dayton passed its moratorium in August of 2024 Trotwood's Planning and Zoning Administrator Tyler Hauck said being Dayton's neighbor was taken into account when the decision was made "We're not just gonna follow suit with what everyone else does and we see it's an issue in other communities I'd be shocked if we were probably the last one to issue a moratorium," said Hauck Hauck said Trotwood received more applications last month than in all of 2024 possibly because of Dayton's moratorium "We kinda just wanted to catch our breath as a community and make sure that all of our T's are crossed all of our I's are dotted," said Hauck The moratorium does not impact any applications that are currently in the system but it does give Trotwood a chance to reassess zoning "We're likely gonna be looking at really what the best practices are around the state of Ohio and maybe even the country and seeing how they apply to this area," said Hauck "It might be increase in distance requirements State Representative Phil Plummer (R-39th dist.) Plummer sent Dayton 24/7 Now this statement: Trotwood will use this time to get more guidance from the state since House Bill 583 passed in December Ohio (WKEF) -- Salem Consumer Square on the 5000 block of Salem Avenue used to be home to banks The nearly 30-acre property still remains empty but city officials are frustrated it remains mostly unchanged The city met with the property developer in January 2024 "We've been asking for access to the buildings We've been asking for plans for the buildings We've been asking for timelines for the buildings We've been asking for application for zoning certificates for the buildings so I wrote a legal order or our department wrote a legal order calling out the violations that we could see The city of Trotwood says it's also a safety issue It wrote legal orders calling out violations and declared it a public nuisance property “Salem Capital LLC (Consumer Square) is a public nuisance that harms the community by violating health They have not been a good community partner since they purchased the property the city of Trotwood intends to vigorously pursue all legal options to force the property owners to bring the property into compliance with the standards the community deserves.” Trotwood officials intend to take legal means to get them in compliance and would prefer to work with them but it's also kind of a dangerous thing and until you fix the structures or raise the structures not much development can go on there in that particular site," Fuller said Mike Zhang who is one of the property managers says weather conditions have played a factor in moving forward but work has been done on the facade portions of the buildings as well some electrical work which he hopes will include businesses and a grocery store "We have come in and started to make improvements We are trying our best to make it happen," said Zhang "We can't control the cold weather raining days and many other resources or people's perceptions We did make some progress and intend to continue to make progress We hope people understand and be patient with us," said Zhang a hearing could happen in January or February 2025 Ohio — The City of Trotwood is inviting residents to take part in a day of service to help clean up the community volunteers can help remove litter and trash. The cleanups will be along East Main Street to clean up the Broadmoor and Old Towne neighborhoods The city encourages residents to also walk through their neighborhoods and clean up any litter they find The city also asks volunteers to help education others on proper trash disposal and litter prevention.  "When you volunteer to help clean up our community Strengthen community ties and unite to keep our great City of Trotwood beautiful," the city wrote in a release More information can be found here. We’ve reached the point in the season where Poplar’s timeline is overlapping with ours Specifically: the squad is undergoing a rigorous spring cleaning That’s right: there’s a new girl in town named Sister Catherine and she’s studying for both her religious vows AND her midwifery certification who’s helping by moving various furniture pieces Sister Catherine has actually turned up a day early in an attempt to avoid a railway strike which Sister Veronica tries to put into the charity pile before Sister Monica Joan snatches the bounty for herself Turner and Miss Higgins bemoan the unusually short list of folks who have signed up for a measles vaccination clinic which starts to make sense when she explains why she’s here: Mrs who is in her mid forties and has 7 children Turner confirms that his patient is about 3 months pregnant and then explains that even though abortion is legal and having another baby isn’t simple either but I work constantly to take care of them And my husband’s job is in jeopardy because of the docker’s strike but it could cause you a lot of distress.Mrs Wrigley: So does that qualify me to get an abortion?Dr You’ll need to be seen by more than one doctor.Mrs Please.Phyllis: We can’t help you immediately Turner: I’m going to refer you to another doctor and I’m going to have him talk to you about sterilization while we’re at it.Mrs Trotwood is attempting to fold her laundry while her son Andrew bangs a dryer door closed over and over and apologizes for her kiddo’s behavior (even though Mrs But things take a turn for the worse when Andrew accidentally shuts his hand in the machine Wallace also take this opportunity to tell Mrs Trotwood to have a cup of tea and relax for a bit I can’t believe he was just like any other kid before he got sick.Mrs And the brain infection left him the way he is now who’s close to delivery and whose husband is serving in Cyprus with the RAF Phyllis notices that her patient’s blood pressure is a little high Wrigley insists that her daughter move back home to be taken care of The good news is that based on the urine sample but Phyllis will check in regularly regardless Wrigley pulls Phyllis aside and asks to keep her own medical situation private Wrigley will need to talk to SOMEONE about this Sister Catherine gets her bearings by taking a look around From this interaction we learn three things: one who’s been forced to turn her interests more inward to align with her vocation (trampolining that Sister Catherine has somewhat overbearing parents And three: that Sister Monica Joan is finding this new arrival somewhat challenging This makes Sister Monica Joan snippy with Sister Veronica which I’m sure will be fun to watch unfold Joyce and Rosalind are excited to have another younger friend in the house even though said friend is an almost nun who will be studying all the time we get a glimpse of life at the Wrigley house and both she and her husband are adamant that he should continue to support the strike despite the financial hardship it’s putting the whole family under And speaking of people under strain: Shelagh has arrived at the Trotwood home to check on Andrew’s bandage Trotwood pulling Andrew and his wheelchair up the stairs: the elevator is out looks like this cut might be a little infected I can’t watch him all day!Shelagh: I’m not here to criticize you: you’re working really hard I figured out that your husband left and also assumed you didn’t want to talk about it?Mrs Trotwood: People already feel sorry for me because of Andrew in the end.Shelagh: I would have thought that special education school in Essex would have helped?Mrs but the council stopped paying for him to attend They said he had to go to a place that was closer trying to clean while her mother is out of the house She also tells Phyllis that her husband is very involved in her pregnancy and that her father was decidedly NOT involved with any of his children and is immediately escorted to the lavatory by Phyllis While Phyllis is fairly sure her patient is having a miscarriage Shelagh and Sister Veronica chat about Andrew Trotwood Shelagh is very worried about the whole family; Andrew staying at home isn’t good for him or his mother They don’t have any evidence that the family needs support But you know who’s really good at filling out forms Trotwood at the end of her rope and having a small meltdown Trotwood explains that she feels very isolated: none of the moms she knows are in the same position and moms with typical children can’t understand her experience Turner confirms what everyone suspected: Mrs They’re unfortunately pretty common for people her age and Phyllis is worried that there’s been more bleeding than normal Wrigley will have to go to the hospital and have a procedure to make sure no fetal tissue is left behind because otherwise she can get a bad infection This is a good time to talk about the referral Dr so he asks Gail to leave so her mom can have some privacy T needs to talk about some confidential medical information with your mom Wrigley: Is this about me getting my tubes tied Wrigley: When I went to ask for an abortion.Gail: WHAT Sister Catherine’s attempt to escape to her room to study is thwarted by Sister Julienne who insists that Sister Catherine join the group for recreation But I fear that Sister Catherine’s been shoehorned into a type of recreation that isn’t actually helping her recuperate Wrigley would still like to have her tubes tied Gail says she doesn’t want to see her mother go through something like this again what initially looks like a routine procedure takes a nasty turn in the operating room and reminds her father that he’s part of the reason they’re in this situation They’re all worried for the Wrigley family that information hasn’t come soon enough to prevent Gail and her dad from getting into a loud fight in front of all the kids where they both blame each other for what happened The midwives talk over their new colleague but very interested in caring for children but that they need to remind Sister Catherine to care for the laboring mothers first But the discussion does give everyone an idea: could Sister Catherine’s particular skillset be useful in helping out Gail and her family Wrigley is not coping well with his new reality especially with keeping up with the household needs Phyllis can help with: Gail’s going to check into the maternity home The biggest issue is that Andrew and other handicapped kids have no legal right to an education Vi tells her that there’s a bill going through parliament which would help and until then funding is at the mercy of the council Andrew’s mum has found something that can get her out of the house: she’s spotted the measles vaccine clinic poster Higgins happily hands over all the fliers she’s got Trotwood gets every mom there to take a flier a lot of those moms follow through and sign their kids up for the vaccine clinic Wrigley comes home to find Sister Catherine entertaining his children Despite clearly loving helping out with these kids Sister Catherine does a great job taking care of Gail that evening at the maternity home Sister Catherine’s studies are interrupted by Sister Monica Joan But I’ve been taught that it’s not allowed to eat between meals.Sister Monica Joan: But THESE are a lot of biscuits Sounds good.Sister Monica Joan: Is this what you imagined?Sister Catherine: I didn’t actually imagine it very much you know?Sister Monica Joan: Everything is just a word I think I miss that the most.Sister Monica Joan: I get that But the good news is that this is still a very full life Somehow I feel like these two are going to be good for each other which means that the measles vaccines will be delivered a day late They’ll need to postpone the clinic… unless Dr Turner can get to the factory fast enough in his car Shelagh goes across town to collect the Trotwoods so that they can see just how many people came out to get vaccinated because of Mrs While the waiting crowd starts to get restive Sister Veronica is armed with chocolate biscuits T soon makes his appearance with boxes of vaccine in hand Vi arrives with good news for the Trotwoods: the council are going to look at Andrew’s case again and hope to have everything sorted before the new school year starts Trotwood has made friends with some of the other parents at the clinic She’s working through it with the help of Sister Catherine and Phyllis when her dad shows up bearing gifts: knitted baby clothes that his wife had been preparing for Gail who after all has never seen his wife in labor is shocked and upset to see his daughter in pain but sticks around in the waiting room anyway This is particularly notable given Phyllis’ prior
