village approves referendum Villages offer residents for stormwater funding option winter safety reminders Ballot question would gage voters’ opinions on proposed .5 percent sales tax

sweditor@buglenewspapers.com @DownersgrvBugle

The Westmont Village Board approved a referendum for a .5 percent, non-home rule sales tax increase to address stormwater management issues at its Jan. 8 meeting.

The referendum question will be placed on the April 7 general election ballot, and village officials said the sales tax increase would help the village address community-wide problems with the stormwater management infrastructure.

“The extent of the village-wide drainage issues have been studied and defined,” Village Manager Steve May said. He added that last week’s meeting determined the preferred funding mechanism and rate, as well as approved the best language for the referendum question.

For the past few months, the board has been considering all the recommendations from the community, an ad hoc committee on stormwater management, village staff and professional consultants. May said the board decided early on that it wanted the issue to go to referendum so the community could vote on the various proposals.

“The program itself is still under development, and there are different funding mechanism that have different characteristics, including how quickly funding could be generated,” May said.

Mayor Ron Gunter said the board had originally intended to put a referendum question on the ballot in November. He noted that the board decided to hold off until the upcoming April ballot so there would be more time to educate the public about the stormwater issue and funding options.

“Between now and April, there will be additional education to the public,” Gunter said. “We will not promote [the sales tax], we’ll just provide information.

It’s up to the residents to decide if they’re going to approve it or not.”

Attorney John Zemenak said that funds generated for the stormwater management program can only be used for stormwater and public infrastructure needs, and cannot be used for salary or other needs.

Trustee Bob Scott said he was in favor of using a .5 percent sales tax increase as the funding option and placing that proposal on the referendum. Scott acknowledged that no one likes to implement a new sales tax, but added that the .5 percent option is the fairest.

“After a decision this evening, we will work to further develop the plan details and have them ready sufficiently before the April vote so that every resident is aware of the proposed program features they are considering,” May said.

A Downers Grove boy is in good condition after falling through the ice at a pond in the afternoon of Jan. 6. Downers Grove firefighters rescued the boy from a pound located in the 7100 block of Dexter Road at approximately 3:40 p.m. A resident who lived in the neighborhood heard the boy crying out and called 9-1-1, according to officials. “The firefighters executed their skills, and everything went according to plan,” said Downers Grove Fire Department

spokeswoman Marsha Giesler. “If the neighbor had not heard the boy and alerted us, he would have went under and then who knows what could have happened.”

Upon arrival, first responders found the victim floating on his back in an effort to stay above water, according to Geisler. Firefighters were able to bring him to shore within five minutes, and he was then taken to Good Samaritan Hospital.

“They got him in the ambulance,

and their goal was to warm him up and get his body temperature up before they transported him to the hospital,” Geisler added.

The department is reminding people to observe all signs posted regarding dangerous ice and to make sure they are dressing appropriately for the frigid temperatures.

“No matter how cold it is or how thick the ice looks, you need to stay off of it,” Geisler said. “You can’t tell how thick the ice is by looking at it.”

Warming centers opened to people needing refuge from cold

By BuGle staFF sweditor@buglenewspapers.com @BugleNewspapers

Winter is finally here, and the villages of Woodridge and DownersGrovearegivingresidents weather tips and reminding them of important safety precautions for this time of year. With last week’s frigid temperatures, both villages opened warming centers to people needing refuge from the cold.

A comprehensive list of warming centers in DuPage County can be found at www. vil.woodridge.il.us. Villages are also encouraging residents to check on the well being of friends and neighbors, particularly the elderly or homebound, during severe weather conditions. Signs of cold weather exposure include uncontrollableshivering,memory lapses, slurred speech, immobile or fumbling hands, stumbling and apparent exhaustion, and an inability to get up after rest.

In Downers Grove, street parking is prohibited between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m. when three or more inches of snow has fallen in a 24-hour period.

Additionally, snow or ice should never be shoveled or blown onto streets, sidewalks or any right of way. Displaced snow can cause ice patches on streets that are hazardous to drivers and can damage snowplows.

Woodridge officials said residents should keep trash and recycling bins behind the curb line to prevent them from ending up in the street, and are asking residents who are physically able to clear a path to fire hydrants from the street along with a 3-foot perimeter around the hydrant.

Mom Son Gym Jam helps raise funds for good cause Proceeds benefit nonprofit helping design playground equipment for all ability levels

By Christine M. Demma for the bugle

sweditor@buglenewspapers.com @BugleNewspapers

Moms and their sons spent Friday night dancing, shooting hoops, listening to music, doing crafts and spending quality time together, while also benefiting a good cause.

“You see so many daddy and daughter events; we thought as mothers in the community it would be a great opportunity to do something with our sons,” Downers Grove Junior Woman’s Club President Kelsey Austin

said, adding that the turnout was better than expected for this first-time event. “We’re really pleased with the whole thing.”

The DGJWC and Downers Grove Park District hosted the inaugural Mom Son Gym Jam, which featured activities such as a moms-only free throw contest, a photo booth and tug-of-war.

DGJWC member Sarah FischerReynolds said the group hopes it will become an annual event.

All the proceeds benefit the Dream Build Play Experience, a nonprofit helping the community of Downers Grove design playground equipment for all ability levels. Founded

by Downers Grove resident Peg Chaidez, the concept for the organization began a year ago when she noticed her 8-year-old son Owen, who is in a wheelchair, was getting stuck on the wood chips while his peers were playing on the equipment. He had to remain on the blacktop,

and she could see his demeanor change.

Owen, also the chief inspiration officer for DBP Experience, attends Hillcrest School.

“When I spoke to the district, I didn’t want to build any kind of playground; I wanted to build an accessible one,” she said. “I saw an opportunity to educate people about accessibility issues.”

Chaidez and the school district put together a focus group of children and educators from Hillcrest, and she said it was interesting to hear the kids’ perspectives regarding both fun and safety. This will be the first playground of its kind in a 20-mile radius, and the cost is projected to be $450,000.

“We hope this is going to be the first of many, and ideally, we would like to do this for every community,” Chaidez said, adding that the goal is to raise money between December and May.

To date, they have raised $5,000, and Chaidez said she has started talking to corporations and local celebrities.

Local celebrity Coach Josh Porter attended the Mom Son Gym Jam, playing tunes from all decades and leading the group of 100 mom and 140 boys in a dance party that included music from The Lego Movie, Ganghnam Style and freeze dance.

Porter started coaching in Downers Grove about 10 years ago, and he said his popularity grew once the community found out he was also a DJ. Now, Porter said he is happy to oblige schools whenever they are looking for local celebrities to read books to

children.

“I help in any way I can,” he said.

Porter was on a dance team during his college years at Northern Illinois University and said he wanted to continue dancing after he graduated. He landed a job at a bat mitzvah company as a dancer.

He took what he learned from that job and started bringing it out to these types of events.

Porter, 35, said he loves being able to entertain kids, adding that it gives him the opportunity to act like a kid himself.

Benet’s streak ends Redwings suffer first loss of season to Joliet Catholic Academy Saturday

By Mark Gregory sports reporter

mark@buglenewspapers.com @Hear_The_Beard

During Benet’s undefeated start to the season, the Redwings played really good basketball and also got a little help missing out on some opponent’s top players.

That was not the case Saturday as they ran into a Joliet Catholic Academy team with a healthy and determined Nicole Ekhomu, who had her best game of the season after returning from a stress fracture in her back.

“I’m feeling much better now,” Ekhomu said. “The in-shape part I’m trying to push myself so that I can get 100 percent there, but this was a really good game. I wasn’t too winded or anything.

I owe that all to my teammates, though, because Ty [Battle], she’s such a threat in the post. I tell her to screen for me. So it’s either you have to guard me or Ty, and if the other person collapses, I have my shooters out there. It was tough to guard.”

The junior erupted for a career-high 38 points and paced

“They are a good team.

Ekhomu was very good today.

She is hard to guard. She’s hard to cover,” Benet coach Joe Kilbride said. “We didn’t do a good job of trapping her the way we prepped doing, but she’s a tough cover, so even if you do a good job, she’s going to get some. You don’t want her to have 38. She is a special player and she had a special game.”

Ekhomu finished the game 15for-21 from the floor and 7-for10 from the free-throw line. She also added six rebounds and four steals for the Angels (11-5, 2-1).

The loss was Benet’s first loss of the season (18-1, 2-1).

Mustangs show improvement

By Scott Taylor

sports editor

staylor@enterprisepublications.com @Taylor_Sports

Even though they finished with a 2-2 record, it was a strong showing for Downers South at the Oswego East Holiday Tournament to end December.

The Mustangs won their first two games to advance in the winner’s bracket before a couple of losses against strong teams.

“Last year we lost our first game so we put ourselves in a bad situation from the start,” DGS coach Lyndsie Long said.

“We kind of struggled in this tournament. This year, after winning the first two games and playing good competition on the

main court, it has been good for the girls.”

The Mustangs opened play with a 54-38 win over Aurora East.

Ava Porlier led the way with 16 points and 11 rebounds, while Vashae Easley had 12 points and Kiera James tallied seven rebounds.

They followed that up with a 50-49 win over IC Catholic.

Porlier notched 21 points, Easley had 10 points and James added 11 rebounds.

“We’ve been doing really well all year,” Long said. “It has been a standout year so far. They are playing hard every game. The first two games of the tournament we

Bonnett puts on shooting clinic in OT loss By mike sandrolini sports reporter

mike@buglenewspapers.com @Voyager_Sport

For the first time in years, the Redwings don’t have the luxury of feeding the ball down low to dominant big men like Sean O’Mara and Frank Kaminsky, so Benet head coach Gene Heidkamp has adjusted his offense accordingly.

“What we’re running is different,” Heidkamp said. “What it does is changes the game. It allows you to get to the basket a little more and we’re a little bit more perimeter oriented.”

One of the benefactors of Benet’s revamped offense is senior Colin Bonnett, the lone returning starter from last winter’s Class 4A state runner-up club.

What Bonnett experienced during the second half— particularly late in the game—of Benet’s 62-60 overtime loss to Fenwick is commonly referred to in sports jargon as “being in the zone.”

Bonnett scored 23 of his gamehigh 25 points in the second half, lifting Benet from a 29-14 deficit early in the third period to force a

Jason Malonga and Benet fell to Fenwick in overtime Saturday.

47-47 tie at the end of regulation.

His driving basket, and then a jumper with 36 seconds to go, erased a 47-43 lead that Fenwick held with under two minutes left in regulation.

“He played great down the stretch,” said Heidkamp of Bonnett, who didn’t start the game due to what Heidkamp termed a minor team matter. “I think his skills are featured a little bit more in this system.

“We’re never happy to lose, but our kids showed some resolve being down 15 at the start of the third quarter. I think it says something that we got the game to where it was.”

The Redwings (9-4) trailed by as many as six points, 57-51, with 1:05 to go in overtime, but two threepointers from Bonnett helped Benet eventually pull within two points of the Friars, 59-57, with 24 seconds left.

All told, Bonnett sank three treys in the final 38 seconds.

Fenwick junior Mike Ballard, who scored 17 points, said he used to practice against, and work out with, Bonnett during the off-

“I can’t believe the shots he was hitting at the end,” Ballard said.

“I never really seen him do that in games, and I’m pretty sure he’s been doing this all year. It was great for him.”

Quinn Fisher put the game out of reach for Fenwick by hitting two free throws with six second remaining that made the score 62-57. The Friars (11-4) went 9 of 10 from the stripe in overtime and 5-for-5 during the fourth quarter.

Benet starters Dan Sobolewski (12 points) and Sean Liszka both fouled out in the fourth.

“They made it really tough to come back because they kept hitting free throws and would make big baskets,” Heidkamp said.

“They hit two threes at the start of overtime and it was a chance for us to fold but we came back.

“I think it was an excellent high school basketball game. I would have liked it if we had played defense a little better, but they’re a team that can exploit you if you

Downers South then fell to Sycamore 53-35 after trailing just 28-24 at the half. Porlier had 14 points and James chipped in eight points and 10 rebounds.

The Mustangs finished play with a 61-48 loss to Proviso East to finish in fourth place. However, it was quite the improvement from a 77-49 loss to Proviso East just a few weeks prior.

“It is a little bit of a measuring stick,” Long said of seeing how far the team has come since earlier in the month.

Porlier was named to the alltournament team.

Overall, Long is pleased with the progress of the team.

“They are constantly working hard on the floor,” Long said. “We

don’t play well.”

The Redwings visit Notre Dame (11-3), ranked among the top 20 prep teams in the area

by Comcast Sportsnet Chicago, on Thursday night. Notre Dame took undefeated Lake Forest into overtime last Friday before falling.

Benet then competes in the Wheaton Warrenville South Martin Luther King tourney on Saturday and Monday, and hosts St. Viator on Friday, Jan. 23.

“We have a solid team,” Heidkamp said. “Are we a great team? We’re a sum of its parts kind of team. We’ve got kids that are playing hard and getting some experience and playing better.

“We’ve got a tough schedule.

We played at (the) Pontiac (Holiday Tournament, where Benet finished second), we played Fenwick, we play Notre Dame on Thursday and we’ve got St. Viator coming up and some good nonconference games. Some of those games might be tough and may not go our way, but like last year, they have the ability to make you better come March.” just need to be more consistent with the fundamental part of it. If we stick to that stuff, good things will continue to happen for us.”

The Mustangs were off for 13 days before a trip to Morton Jan. 9 (54-48 win) and a home game against Willowbrook Jan. 10, which was a 59-53 win. They faced York Jan. 12 at home.

Easley scored 26 in the win over Willowbrook.

Long used the break to help the team work on fundamentals before preparing for the rest of the upcoming schedule.

“We’ve been constantly preparing for games, so it (was) nice to have a little break where we can go back to the fundamentals and boxing out and proper closeouts,” Long said. “We can work on our defensive mechanics. I just want more consistency. Small things make a huge difference.”

Battle tallied eight points and grabbed 17 rebounds in the game. Jnaya Walker had nine points for JCA, while Mia Farrell added eight points and Andrea Acosta had six points and nine rebounds.

“This feels good and we know some people from the other team, so it is always fun,” Ekhomu said.

“Everybody gets ready for Benet and JCA.” Battle said in a game like this, the Angels should have been ready.

“This was a big game for us,” he said. “We’re playing the No. 2

team in the state, undefeated, at home on a Saturday afternoon.

If you can’t get up for that, then you are in the wrong sport Benet senior Emily Eshoo had a career game of her own, scoring 34 points on 11-for-14 shooting, including 5-for-6 from three.

“Emily had a very good game and to her credit, she kept us in it,” Kilbride said. “We have been good to this point because of a collective and today it wasn’t collective and that hurt us. It has to be more of a group thing for us, that is the bottom line.”

Kathleen Doyle had 16 points, six rebounds and six assists, but no other Benet player scored more than six.

Benet rebounded with an 8360 win over Hinsdale Central as Eshoo had 19 and Emily Schramek added 18.

Google and IBM become direct email competitors Both Google and IBM are trying to be first to the finish line with revamped “smart” email systems. In Google’s case it is called “Inbox” and IBM calls theirs “Verse.”

The impetus is a way to deal with inbox overload most people experience daily. The concept is to use artificial intelligence to “learn” how you deal with email, then auto-arrange your email for you.

Sounds great, but we’ll see how well it works.

Hedging the bet: No hedge needed here, I think both will succeed – current email handling technology is ancient and in dire need of a complete re-do.

faster rate, too.

Hedging the bet: Barring some magical improvement in virus detection, only increased vigilance and careful Web surfing are the watchwords for 2015.

I’ve been predicting Yahoo will collapse for about five years now.

This resulted in five years of me being wrong - hasn’t happened yet.

But despite Marissa Mayer’s diligent efforts (she’s the CEO brought in to save Yahoo), the continued slide in ad revenue and quality search results continues.

Maybe this is the year.

Hedging the bet: Microsoft could buy Yahoo and merge it with their Bing/MSN search engine and finally take on Google in a meaningful way. Microsoft made an attempt once before but was rebuffed, so the scenario is not too crazy.
