VILLAGE NEWS >> NILES BOARD OF TRUSTEES

Board to consider arts, culture master plan Board expected to vote on Master Plan during its Aug. 22 meeting BY IGOR STUDENKOV Bugle Staff @BugleNewspapers nweditor@buglenewspapers.com

The Village of Niles Board of Trustees is expected to vote on the Niles Arts and Culture Master Plan during its Aug. 22 meeting. On Aug. 9, the Niles General Government/IT Committee voted unanimously to send the plan to

the board. Niles Public Arts and Culture Advisory Council reviewed and approved it during its July 10 meeting. It should be noted, however, that the plan the two legislative bodies approved may not be exactly the same as the one that will come before the board. According to Niles Administrative Assistant Cathy Spadoni, who serves as

the staff liaison to the the Arts and Culture Advisory Council, consultant Lakota Group was still making some tweaks to it, but it will be done by Aug. 22. As previously reported by the Bugle, on Sept 12, 2016, the Niles Village Board voted unanimously to contract the Chicago-based Lakota Group to create the village’s first Arts and Culture Master Plan. It was meant to provide a blueprint for what the village can do to support, encourage and develop more cultural amenities and events. Since

then, Lakota Group consulted with stakeholders and held several public outreach events. The preliminary version of the plan provided to the Bugle established five key planning priorities. Those include using arts and culture to enhance the Niles community identity, celebrating Niles’ diversity by leveraging local assets and institutions, creating policies that would encourage more arts and cultural amenities, using “innovative methods” to encourage residents to bring art to residents,

and using public-private partnerships to advance arts-related development. The plan then sets down strategies for achieving each priority. For the first priority, it calls for sprucing up public spaces by adding art by, for example, adding murals and painting crosswalks. It also calls for doing more to promote artistic activities and events, as well as collecting data about how such activities benefit Niles economy. SEE CULTURE PAGE 7

COVER STORY >> TRANSPORTATION

Pace plans faster service along Dempster Arterial Rapid Transit lines meant to provide faster service than regular routes BY IGOR STUDENKOV Bugle Staff @BugleNewspapers nweditor@buglenewspapers.com

As Pace suburban bus transit agency prepares to build its first Arterial Rapid Transit express bus line along Milwaukee Avenue, between Jefferson Park Transit Cen-

ter and Golf Mill Shopping Center, it continues planning for the future. In 2015, it began the planning process for the second ART Line – the Dempster Pulse Line. The line will follow the same path as Route 250, which mostly travels along Dempster Street, serving

Evanston, Skokie, Morton Grove, Niles, Park Ridge, Des Plaines and Rosemont. The transit agency has already been gathering public input, and it is expected to hold the first public meeting about the line some time later this year. Arterial Rapid Transit lines are meant to provide faster service than regular routes. They will only stop at major intersections and other major destinations, and the buses will be able take advantage

of Transit Signal Priority technology, which will either shorten the red light or extend the green light to speed up service. The stops will have more amenities, with raised platforms to speed up boarding, real-time arrival information displays and bike racks. Pace has ordered special buses that have onboard Wi-Fi, interior displays that can show advertising and rider information and USB chargers located under the seats. Charlotte Obodzinski, Pace’s Rapid Transit Program Supervisor, previously told the Bugle that buses were originally meant to enter service once Pulse Milwaukee Line launched. But before they arrived earlier than expected, Pace put them into service, trying to place them on routes that will become ART corridors. The Bugle has seen those buses on Route 250 on multiple occasions. According to the statistics compiled by Regional Transporation Authority, Route 250 currently sixth busiest route in the entire system. May 2017 saw 3,021 boardings a month on weekdays, 1,720 hoardings a month on Saturdays and 1,217 boards on Sundays. The route begins at Davis Purple Line ‘L’ station, which doubles as a major transfer point for local CTA and Pace buses and Union Pacific North Metra Line station, and ends O’Hare Kiss-and-Fly terminal, where riders can transfer to Airport Transit System automated train, which links the parking lot to all of O’Hare International Airport

terminals. Along the way, it stops at Dempster-Skokie Yellow Line ‘L’ station and Union Pacific Northwest Metra Line’s Des Plaines stations, both of which serve as major transfer points for local buses. The locations for Pulse Dempster Line stations haven’t been finalized, but current plans called for it to stop at aforementioned transit hubs. In Morton Grove, it will stop at Austin Avenue and Waukegan Road, while Harlem Avenue station will serve both Morton Grove and Niles. Additional Niles stations would be placed at Milwaukee Avenue and Cumberland Avenue. In Park Ridge, Western Avenue stop would be the closest stop to Advocate Lutheran General Hospital, while Dee Road station would be the closest station to Maine East High School. Most of those stations would allow riders to transfer to local routes – though some of those routes are weekday-only. Riders would be able to tranfer to Route 210 at Waukegan Road, Route 423 at Harlem Avenue and Niles Free Bus Route 411 at Western Avenue, while the Milwaukee Avenue would serve as a transfer point for Route 270, Niles Free Bus Route 410 and Pulse Milwaukee Line. According to Pace spokesperson Maggie Daly-Skogbakken, the locations of the stations were chosen based on“a variety of factors, including safety, the amount of boardings and alightings at the stop, potential connections to other services, existing landscape and environmental impact.” She emphasized that the locations haven’t been finalized. Pace currently plans to continue operating regular Route 250 alongside Pulse Dempster Line, but it hasn’t worked out the details yet. “If and how it will be adjusted to complement the Dempster Line has yet to be determined,” DalySkogbakken said. “Any significant changes would be presented at a public hearing. “ Route 250 is one of the several Pace routes that provides school bus-like service. It serves Maine West and Maine East high schools. Before and after school, certain trips follow different routing than usual to pick up students that otherwise wouldn’t be able to take a bus to school without making several transfers, and they pick SEE PACE PAGE 3

Recovery Connection director honored Maine Township Recovery Connection director honored as Community Hero

When Marty Cook was asked to attend the first Maine Community Youth Assistance Foundation (MCYAF) Community Heroes Gala four years ago, he never dreamed that one day he would walk across the stage as a community hero himself. But that was before he became Director of Recovery Connection. Maine Township residents can get a preview of the work that led to Cook and the Maine Township program being honored as one of this year’s MCYAF community heroes at the next township PACE FROM PAGE 2 up and drop off students closer to school entrances. Daly-Skogbakken told the Bugle that, whatever happens to Route 250, those trips won’t be affected. At this point, the planning process is going through the stakeholder outreach and environmental review phase. Daly-Skogbakken said that some outreach already. “Stakeholders who take part in our early project advisory groups typically include community leaders, business and property owners, municipal planners and staff, and elected officials,” she said. “We held the first Citizens Advisory Group meeting in March of 2016, another in June 2016, and a third this past June. We’ve also had multiple meetings with local community officials and leaders where we’ve presented the Pulse program and preliminary plans. That will happen throughout the project, as will public outreach.” Daly-Skogbakken also said that the agency is gearing up to hold public meetings similar to the ones held during the Pulse Milwaukee Line planning process. “Once we’re a little further along in the process we hold open houses to give all other stakeholders, like residents and customers, to review proposed plans and provide input so we can refine as needed,” she said. Daly-Skogbakken added that the first meeting will be held on September, but that Pace wasn’t prepared to release anything anything more specific until the week after the interview – after this issue’s print deadline.

board meeting which is scheduled for Tuesday, Aug. 22, at 7:30 p.m. at Maine Township Town Hall, 1700 Ballard Road, Park Ridge. “Recovery Connection is just one of a multitude of programs and services that help the people in Maine Township live healthier and more fulfilled lives,” said Laura J. Morask, Township Supervisor. The program was launched in 2015 in partnership with The Niles Park District, Presence Holy Family Hospital, Keys to Recovery, Oakton Community College, Advocate Lutheran

General Hospital and others to meet the growing concern of substance abuse in the township . According to Cook who modestly calls the award “beyond flattering,” Recovery Connection counts on a great team that includes Jonathon Kaehn, Peer Advocate; and Nick Kanehl, Peer Support Advocate; to connect young adults who want to stay clean and sober with each other, as well as community resources, social events, and a strong network of peers to support each other and be positive example of recovery. “Getting and staying sober from drugs and alcohol is tough for anyone, at any age, but most particularly it’s difficult on those young

adults between the ages of 18 and 32, whose social fabric is often composed of parties and bars, said Cook. “We are here to help them discover and embrace alternatives to that lifestyle.” One of the hallmarks of Recovery Connection is the focus on dual solutions that pairs attention to mental health issues as well as addiction issues, according to Cook. Another key component is the focus on young adults who may have difficulty forming associations with Alcoholics Anonymous members who tend to be in their 40s and beyond. “The goal of Recovery Connection is to support long-term sobriety, healthy lifestyle activities

among the 18 to 32 age group and help them mature into contributing members of our community,” said Cook. Statistics about the program demonstrate that it has grown exponentially. The first meeting in 2015 had 15 participants. Today, the weekly Friday night meetings at 7:30 p.m. at Oasis Water Park in Niles average between 30 and 50 young people from all types of recovery programs who come together to meet, eat, socialize and share how they stay clean and sober. It offers newcomers a powerful example that young people can have fun without drugs and alcohol, according to Cook.

GUEST COLUMN

On wars & rumors of wars There will be risks, and results take time BY CAL THOMAS TRIBUNE CONTENT AGENCY One month after the election, President-elect Donald Trump made a “victory tour” of states that had helped deliver his surprise win. In Fayetteville, North Carolina, Trump introduced his choice for Secretary of Defense, Gen. James Mattis, and pledged the following: “We will stop racing to topple foreign regimes that we know nothing about, that we shouldn’t be involved with. Instead, our focus must be on defeating terrorism and destroying ISIS, and we will.” He appears to be fulfilling the second part of that pledge, less so the first. Think North Korea, Iran, Russia, and now even Venezuela, which has had new sanctions placed on it following fraudulent elections giving dictatorial power to President Nicolas Maduro. While Venezuela is no threat to America and Russia is a major headache, North Korea and Iran are clear and present dangers. These two rogue regimes are committed to developing nuclear weapons capable of reaching U.S. cities no matter what we do. Clearly this cannot be allowed to happen, but the question is how to stop them short of all-out war that has the potential to kill millions and create a doomsday scenario reminiscent of Cold War movies like “Fail Safe,” “Dr. Strangelove” and “On the

Beach.” The best offense really is a good defense. When Ronald Reagan proposed his “Strategic Defense Initiative” (SDI) in a nationally televised address on March 23, 1983, many on the left mocked him. They called his proposal science fiction and unworkable, derisively labeling it “Star Wars.” They’re not mocking that proposal now. The Defense Department has had several successes with its Terminal High Altitude Defense (THAAD) anti-missile system, but only at targets that represent medium-range missiles. In May, the U.S. Missile Defense Agency also “’successfully intercepted’ an intercontinental ballistic missile during the first test of its ground-based intercept system.” That’s not science fiction. Readers should revisit Reagan’s speech as a template for dealing with modern threats. In that address from the Oval Office, Reagan said the risk of war is lessened when the U.S. has a strong deterrence, which he defined as “making sure any adversary who thinks about attacking the United States, or our allies, or our vital interests, concludes that the risks to him outweigh any potential gains. Once he understands that, he won’t attack. We maintain the peace through our strength; weakness only invites aggression.” Reagan said the strategy of deterrence had not changed, but what it takes to deter had changed. While acknowledging it might take decades to achieve his Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), Reagan said he wanted to take the first step. He concluded his address:

“I am directing a comprehensive and intensive effort to define a longterm research and development program to begin to achieve our ultimate goal of eliminating the threat posed by strategic nuclear missiles. This could pave the way for arms control measures to eliminate the weapons themselves. We seek neither military superiority nor political advantage. Our only purpose - one all people share - is to search for ways to reduce the danger of nuclear war. My fellow Americans, tonight we’re launching an effort which holds the promise of changing the course of human history. There will be risks, and results take time. But I believe we can do it. As we cross this threshold, I ask for your prayers and your support.” President Trump should emulate his predecessor, making his first televised address from the Oval Office during which he explains to Americans why North Korea and Iran pose an immediate, or ultimate, threat to the United States. He should announce a fast-track effort to escalate THAAD so it can destroy ICBMs. A space-based, anti-missile system should then complement our defenses in order to protect America and our allies from nuclear attack. As Reagan noted, weakness encourages tyrants. Tehran and Pyongyang must be encouraged at what appears to be instability in the Trump administration. A credible missile defense system would send them a message more powerful than words. (Readers may email Cal Thomas at tcaeditors@tribpub.com.) (C) 2017 TRIBUNE CONTENT AGENCY, LLC.

Indiana’s Swan Lake Resort is a great stay and play destination BY MARK GREGORY Sports Editor @Hear_The_Beard mark@buglenewspapers.com

While golf is a great game to go out and play on a Sunday for a few hours of relaxation, but it can also be a destination game where a group of friends can escape for a weekend. If that is what you are looking for – Swan Lake Resort in Plymouth, Indiana is exactly what you are looking for. The property includes topnotch amenities including several lodging choices, one being the hotel – which includes both an indoor and outdoor pool – and Putters, a full bar and grill. But while the food, drink and luxury part of Swan Lake would make it well worth the stay on its own – if you are there for a few days chances are you are there to golf and you will not be disappointed. The resort offers a pair of 18hole championship courses, which both are $49 during the week and $59 Friday through Sunday. Twilight rates are $25 for the weekdays and $35 on weekends. We played the Black course first. The Black is a par 72 that plays 7,131 yards from the back tees, 6,481 in the middle and 5,272 in the front. On the Black Course, play opens with the second easiest

rated hole on the course – a par-4 that plays 366 from the tips. This straight tee shot is better played to the right to allow an easier iron shot to the green. A 176-yard par 3 is next. A hole with water on both sides of the fairway, landing the ball short is not a terrible play – but be careful on the pitch because the green will runs drastically toward you. Hole 3 is a daunting par-4 at 425 yards with water all around. Big hitters can clear the water to the left and make for an easier play into the pin – but for most players, a layup here is a safe play even though you will have a long iron in your hand for your second shot. Number four is the hardest hole on the course and you will know why. A 607-yard par 5, this hole has a creek bisecting the fairway and a pond guarding the green. You have to be precise here with your drive to avoid the water to the left, but then need to be able to carry the water on your next two shots. A rare back-to-back par-5s is what is in store here with the 509-yard fifth hole. Big hitters can get the ball over the hill and get some roll offering a birdie chance and maybe gaining back a lost shot

My career goal is to own a mobile food vending company, so I’m putting most of the money I make from eBay and ride-hailing services — around $1,000 a month — aside in savings for that. Should I forego my business idea for the time being, and knock out the student loan debt instead?

It also calls for doing more to cultivate young artistic talent by, for example, establishing mentoring programs, or providing business planning and start-up funding services for burgeoning artists. Finally, it calls for the village to team up with local schools, park districts and Niles-Maine library to bring more local events to various neighborhoods. For the third priority, the plan calls for building upon amenities that already there – such as the Niles Senior and Teen centers, the library the schools and park districts – by putting more of the Niles Historical Society’s archival information online. It also calls for the village to establish an arts district on a portion of the Milwaukee Avenue corridor, where artists would be able to use vacant retail spaces to create galleries, workspaces and entertainment venues. The plan suggests the section between Seward and Monroe streets as the “most possible” candidate. It further calls for establishing an art incubator somewhere else along Milwaukee Avenue, with the Niles Historical Society building proposed as a possible venue.

For the fourth priority, the plans calls for doing more free cultural events for all age groups, looking into ways to increase residents’ exposure to art and helping artists fund their projects. For the fifth priority, the plan calls on the village to create a mechanism for accepting public arts donations, look into other sources of revenue to fund arts and culture initiatives, talk with Niles areas businesses and philanthropic organizations to see how they can contribute and create a “cultural space brokerage,” where the village would work with property owners to market “affordable or low-cost” spaces for artists.

from the hole before. The birdie on five may be needed, because a tough, 433yard par-4 follows that. The hole plays much easier here from the white tees as they take out the slight dogleg. The seventh plays at 378-yards and is a hole where accuracy is needed. There is trouble on both sides of the fairway and a straight drive here makes the hole more playable. A 215-yard par-3 follows and is mentally challenging and will have you second guessing your club selection – which we did several times over in our round. There is water on three sides of the green, a large bunker to the left and a cluster of three more to the right. Avoiding the trouble is doable with the right weapon selection. The front nine closes with a 459-yard par-4 that all but guarantees a long iron in your hand for your approach unless you are a monster off the tee. This sloped green is guarded by a trio of bunkers – so hitting it in the bullseye is your best play. A 418-yard par 4 opens the back nine, but this one offers hitters a chance to hit with a wide fairway and little trouble along the way. A dogleg left is what is in store for you with the 416-yard par 4 11th. There is room to carry the trees to the left and cut the corner a bit – but too far left brings a pond into play. Did I just say water in play? Number 12 has water up nearly the entire left side of the farirway on this 454-yard par 4, so staying right and hitting your shot where you need is key on the toughest hole on the back nine. If you think you get relief with a par-3 next – think again. This 202-yarder requires some accuracy and club se-

lection to fly the two bunkers flanking the fairway right in front of the green. Fourteen is a par 4 and plays 396-yards. It is a pretty easy hole as long as you don’t let yourself get psyched out by the pond in front of the green. The easiest ranked hole on the course is next in the form of a 479-yard par 5 that plays straight as an arrow. If you can avoid the creek in front of the green on your second shot (which I did not) this hole has birdie written all over it. A 196-yard par 3 is next. Like all the other par 3s on the course, club selection is key – this time you want to club up one to make sure you carry the bunker to the right of the green. Seventeen is a 451-yard par 4. Water comes into play off the tee, but after that getting to the green is not what you need to worry about. The multi-level green poses a challenge for even the most skilled putters. Ending the round is another par 5, this one playing at 551 yards. The challenge on the tee is shot is simple – the best play is to dance with the pond on the left side of the fairway without getting wet. There is a long approach shot to the green with water in front of the putting surface – accuracy and length are key. So, you just finished your first round of the trip and it’s time to grab the clubs off the cart and head back to your room and get ready for the Silver course, right? Not so fast. If you are playing both days – your bags stay right on the cart and when you arrive the next day your clubs are cleaned and ready for you to enjoy another day at a beautiful course. But, don’t start the day off on the wrong foot – tip the workers for taking care of you and your clubs. We will take a look at the Silver course in our next review.
