Council sells State Wayne for overdue fees

Tattan Park reopens in city

Wayne JROTC cadets attend 3-day leadership challenge

Former city council candidate faces 6 felony charges

Members of the Wayne City Council

have agreed to sell the historic State

Wayne Theater on Michigan Avenue for

$60,000 inpast-duemanagement fees.

The new owner of the movie house is

an affiliate company of Phoenix Theaters,

the company which operates and man-

ages the theater under a contract with the

city. Wayne acquired the theater in 1991

and has spent more than $1.4 million in

operating subsidies and capital improve-

ments since that time. Costs for maintain-

ing the theater were projected at $140,000

annually while closing it would have left

the city liable for $333,600 in existing

equipment leases and management fees.

The city has subsidized the operation of

the theater at about $100,000 annually.

The operating fees due Phoenix since

April 1 will remain an obligation of the

city, according to the sales agreement.

Phoenix owner Cory Jacobson said that

owning the theater will allow the compa-

ny to secure financing for the installation

of new luxury seats, comparable to those

at theMonroePhoenixTheater.

He estimated the cost of the new seat-

ing in Wayne would be $230,000--$250,000

and that he was hoping the installation

would be complete by September.

Jacobson said there would also be new

carpeting installed at the State Wayne in

an effort to “dramatically change the

movie–going experience.”

Language in the sales documents

allows the city an easement to maintain

the large mural on the side of the theater

building and the option to make an offer

to the Phoenix company should a decision

bemade to sell the theater in the future.

Westland residents celebrated the open-

ing of the new and improved Tattan Park

last Thursday.

Improvements to H20 Zone Spray Park

were funded through the Downtown

Development Authority, explained Mayor

WilliamWild and the nearly $4million cap-

ital investment features several new park

pavilions with electricity that are available

for rental by the public.

Also on site is a 1,000 square foot conces-

sion areawhichwill be available beginning

mid-July, Wild said in a prepared release.

Family friendly restrooms will replace the

Porta-johns at the park this month, along

with new park benches and improved

shade areas in the largest park inWestland.

The park is located behind city hall at Ford

andCarlson roads.

Residents are encouraged to enjoy the

park and spray zone free of charge until

Aug. 1 at which time the city will begin col-

lecting a $3 fee fromWestland residents for

access to the H20 Zone Spray Park, accord-

ing to the release from Wild's office. Fees

will be earmarked to offset costs associated

with park maintenance and rangers who

will be on site. Admission to the spray zone

will be $10 for non–Westland residents.

“I'm thrilled that the long-awaited

reopening of the park is here;” commented

Wild. “Tattan Park, home to Play Planet,

one of the largest play structures anywhere

in the United States, and the H20 Zone

Spray Park are among the city's finest

amenities,” Wild continued. “Residents

love these parks and for those enjoying

their summer in our All American City, I

can think of no better place in which to

enjoy awarm, lazy summer afternoon.”

Cadets from the Wayne

Memorial High School Junior

Reserve Officer Training Corps

took their training seriously this

summer.

When the annual JROTC

Cadet Leadership Challenge was

canceled due to budget cuts, the

cadets contacted the Michigan

National Guard for help with

their anticipated training. With

the help of the National Guard,

the students were able to partici-

pate in a self-organized training

challenge at Fort Custer in Battle

Creek.

The students experienced

three days and two nights of

training, including a Field

Leader Reaction Course when

the cadets were put in charge of

a group that had to completemis-

sions with only limited supplies

requiring them to use their criti-

cal thinking skills, according to

First Lt. DennisDean.

Cadets also were trained on

the use of military maps and uti-

lized that training to find points

in thewoods with only amap and

a compass. While on the course

they faced an incoming thunder-

stormand they quickly had to use

land navigation skills to find

theirway out, Dean said.

Cadets also completed a confi-

dence course where they used

their abilities to conquer the

obstacles in front of them includ-

ing crawling under a low wire or

climbing over inclinedwalls.

One of the cadets last exercis-

es was an hour-long road march

with 35-pound rucksacks on their

backs, Dean said.

Wayne resident and communi-

ty activist Christopher Sanders,

45, was arraigned Tuesday at the

29th District Court on charges of

embezzlement, larceny, forgery,

uttering and publishing and iden-

tity theft.

Sanders appeared before

Judge Laura Mack who set a pre-

liminary hearing on the charges

for 8:30 a.m. July 22.

Sanders, who had recently

applied for the vacancy on the

Wayne City Council withdrew that

letter of interest sometime “over

the weekend,” he said. Sanders

was defeated in his bid for elec-

tion to the council three years ago

following allegations of criminal

conduct.

Sanders said that he was

unaware of the impending

charges until “last Friday” and

that he would make no comment

on the situation on the advice of

his attorney, Ron Ruark of Canton

Township.

Mack released Sanders on a

$1,000 personal bond.

The charges include Larceny

by Conversion of $1,000 or more

but less than $20,000 and

Embezzlement by an Agent or

Trustee, both felonies which

carry a prison term of 5 years and

or a $10,000 fine upon conviction,

or a fine of three times the embez-

zled amount, whichever is greater.

The third count, Embezzlement

from a Non-profit or Charitable

Organization carries a penalty of

3-10 years imprisonment and/or a

$15,000 fine. The Forgery and

Uttering and Publishing felonies

each carry penalties of up to 14

years upon conviction and the

charge of Identity Theft carries a

5-year prison term and or a

$25,000 fine, upon conviction.

The charges stem from

Sanders' involvement with the

non-profit Destination Wayne

group, organizers of the Hallo-

Wayne event last year. The com-

plaining witnesses were listed in

court documents as Beverly

Campbell, Paul Strom and Mike

Spence. It is alleged that Sanders

forged Spence's endorsement on

a $1,000 check written to Spence

by Campbell, a signer on the

Destination Wayne account. It is

alleged that Sanders deposited

the check into his personal check-

ing account after forging Spence's

signature as an endorsement.

The offense allegedly took

place Oct. 30, 2013, following the

Hallo-Wayne event in the city.

Sanders is currently involved in a

lawsuit with Wayne City

Councilman Skip Monit claiming

defamation regarding remarks

Monit made at a public meeting

following theHallo-Wayne event.
