The Columbia Community Foundation is pleased to announce that they have awarded their
largest grant in the eight year history of the Foundation. In May of 2016, a check was presented to
the Columbia Fire Department in the amount of $10,000 for a crucial new equipment purchase. The
Lifepak 15 is a portable cardiac care monitoring unit that will provide the Department a direct link
with Southwest General Health Center while transporting patients. Having the most current patient
status, the hospital can be best prepared to treat when the rescue squad arrives. This unit will allow
the Fire Department to serve the 7200 residents of Columbia Township with the most up-to-date
technology, helping to ensure the best possible outcomes.
The Columbia Community Foundation continues its commitment to serving the local commu-
nity. With this recent grant, over $215,000 has been reinvested through scholarships and grants. For

motion of the Zoning Commission. The public hearing for Zoning Amendment 2016-01

Zoning Amendment 2016-02 would add ARTICLE 17 PRIVATE DRIVE DEVELOP-
MENTS to the Columbia Township Zoning Resolution. This article would apply only to
parcels of land containing 50 acres or more.
The complete text of these zoning amendments will be available for review at the Town-
ship Of?ce from September 26, 2016 through October 6, 2016. The Township Of?ce is

Keystone Local School District Free and Reduced – Price Meals
Keystone Local School District today announced its 2016-2017 program year policy for free and re-
duced-priced meals for students unable to pay the full price of meals or milk served under the National
School Lunch and School Breakfast, After School Care Snack or Special Milk Program. Each school of?ce
and the central of?ce has a copy of the policy, which may be reviewed by any interested party.
The Federal Income Eligibility Guidelines will be used for determining eligibility. Children from fami-
lies whose annual income is at or below the Federal Guidelines are eligible for free and reduced price meals
or free milk if the school participates in the Special Milk Program.
Application forms are being distributed to all homes in a letter to parents or guardians. To apply for
free and reduced-price bene?ts, households should ?ll out the application and return it to the school. Ad-
ditional copies are available at the principal’s of?ce in each school. A complete application is required.
Households which currently receive Special Nutrition Assistance Program Bene?ts (SNAP, formally known
as food stamps) or Ohio Works First (OWF) funds for a child must provide the child’s name, the SNAP or
OWF case number and signature of an adult household member on the application. Households which do
not receive SNAP or OWF funds must provide the names of all household members, the last four digits of
the Social Security Number of the adult signing the application or state “none” if the adult does not have a
Social Security Number, the amount and source of income received by each household member, (state the
monthly income) and the signature of an adult household member. If any of this information is missing, the
school cannot process the application.
FREE HEALTH CARE: Families with children eligible for school meals may be eligible for FREE health
care coverage through Medicaid and/or Ohio’s Healthy Start & Healthy Families programs. These programs
include coverage for doctor visits, immunizations, physicals, prescriptions, dental, vision, mental health,
substance abuse and more. Please call 1-800-324-8680 for more information or to request an application.
Information can also be found on the web at http://jfs.ohio.gov/ohp/consumers/familychild.stm. Anyone who
has an Ohio Medicaid card is already receiving these services.
The information provided on the application is con?dential and will be used only for the purpose of
determining eligibility and may be veri?ed at any time during the school year by school or other program
of?cial. To discourage the possibility of misrepresentation, the application forms contain a statement above
the space for signature certifying that all information furnished is true and correct. Applications are being
made in connection with the receipt of federal funds. Schools or other of?cials may check the information
on the application at any time during the school year. Deliberate misrepresentation of information may sub-
ject the applicant to prosecution under applicable state and federal laws. Households will be noti?ed of the
approval or denial of bene?ts. Foster children are categorically eligible for free meal bene?ts regardless of
the household’s income. If a family has foster children living with them and wishes to apply for such meals
or milk for them, contact the school for more information.
Under the provision of the policy, Jody White, Food Service Supervisor, will review applications and
determine eligibility. If a parent or guardian disagrees with the decision on the application or the result of
veri?cation, the decision may be discussed with the determining of?cial on an informal basis. If a formal
appeal is desired, the household has the right to a fair hearing. A fair hearing can be requested either orally or
in writing from: Franco Gallo, Superintendent 531 Opportunity Way, LaGrange, Oh, 44050, 440-355-2424.
The policy contains an outline of the hearing procedure.
Households may apply for bene?ts any time during the school year. If a household is not currently eligi-
ble and if the household size increases or income decreases because of unemployment or other reasons, the
family should contact the school to ?le a new application. Such changes may make the children of the family
eligible for free or reduced-price bene?ts if the family income falls at or below the levels shown above.
