David Schaef update: (12/05/23)

I spoke with David yesterday. He had just arrived at the Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital in Erie.

There are still a couple of issues to resolve, and David is optimistic that Encompass has the skills. We didn't speak much of medicine and health, most of the conversation was about our subscribers and the Community News newspaper.

I was much encouraged by the tone of his voice and the idea he was interested in talking about Community News. So, he’s at that, “I want to get back to work” stage of healing.

He talked about his subscribers and a letter he is composing for them. He talked about how to proceed with the newspaper when he gets home.

He said he hopes to be home in 2 weeks.


Thank You all for your Love and Prayers and Well Wishes.

Conneaut Lake Borough Council held a brief public meeting for March with Council members Mike Krepps, Bill Eldridge, John Chuey, Penny Monahan, Dick Holabaugh and Mayor Timothy Kaider in attendance. Council members Dwight Stallard and Billy Paris were absent. Secretary Kathryn Spencer took the minutes and there was 1 citizen present.

The minutes from the previous meeting were approved by unanimous vote, along with all of the expenditures.

Under the Conneaut Lake Community Development Committee, Councilman Bill Eldridge spoke about the ongoing effort to obtain grant money for the down town area. Resolutions are needed to complete the process for last year’s monies, these being the $400,000 from the DCNR, and $3,000,000 from RACP.

There has not been any discussion as to how these monies will be dispersed, although local Fireman’s Beach is on the list for upgrades.
