Coats’ residency prompts question By ROBERT LYONS Jersey County Journal A candidate who has taken issue with practices of the Jerseyville City Council is now facing questions regarding his own transparency in his campaign for mayor. Documents show Jerseyville mayoral candidate Cliff Coats as having a residence in Carrollton, which was listed as his primary home for tax purposes up until last week. Jersey County State’s Attorney Ben Goetten said his office has received complaints about Coats’ residency as it relates to the April election. Coats, however, said any complaints against him are simply attempts to get him disqualified from the election.

“The situation is that I think they’re scared that I might win,” Coats said. “No one’s ever complained until this election has come up, and then they’re starting to look for stuff to throw you off the ballot.” Coats filed his statement of candidacy in Jerseyville Dec. 15, 2014, which was signed and notarized, stating Coats lives at his place of business, Coats Midtown Automotive, 105 Adams St. in Jerseyville. Paperwork obtained Feb. 13 from the Greene County assessor’s office shows Coats claiming a General Homestead Exemption for tax year 2014 for a 10-acre property in Kane Township. A week later, Feb. 20, the exemption had been removed and Coats

Former county board member files suit against Jersey County, state’s attorney By BOB CROSSEN Jersey County Journal Former Jersey County Board member Dr. John Houseman filed a suit last week against the state’s attorney and county for legal expenses incurred last spring. Jersey County State’s Attorney Ben Goetten filed a motion for a temporary restraining order for preliminary injunction against the full county board in January 2014 to prevent board members from discussing issues relating to a confidential insurance investigation letter. The letter had been leaked to the public and media, detailing confidential personnel complaints from one county employee against another, which led to the termination of the county code administrator. According to the complaint filed Feb. 20 by Houseman, Goetten, acting state’s attorney, and Jersey County “failed to provide legal assistance to Jersey County board members … in the matter case No. 14-CH-2, motion for temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction.” That injunction was “an unauthorized lawsuit on behalf of the Jersey County board against the Jersey (See, Suit, a2)

had changed his tax billing address to his business address in Jerseyville. Because tax year 2014 has not yet been billed, changes can still be made to property statuses. The General Homestead Exemption, according to Illinois Department of Revenue, is available only for property that is occupied as the principal dwelling place of the owner, or lessee, who is also liable for the payment of the property taxes. Coats was slated to receive the maximum exemption of $6,000 for 2014. The same amount was listed as an exemption on the property’s 2013 tax bill, which is in Coats’ name. Coats stated he has never received the Homestead Exemption, and was unaware until recently that it had been

applied to his property. He said the bank through which he obtained a loan to buy the property is responsible for the exemption. “I never filed for it,” Coats said. “It was something that was brought to my attention.” A note added Feb. 17 to the parcel

data sheet from Greene County indicates Coats stated he has not resided at the Carrollton property since December 2013. “All of our addresses – our voting address, our mailing address – everything goes here,” Coats said while (See, CoatS, a2)

Grafton adopts state statute for bed and breakfasts By BOB CROSSEN Jersey County Journal Guest houses may not be defined in Grafton city code, but bed and breakfasts are. Following the rejection of an ordinance amendment to define guest houses in Grafton last month, the city council approved to use the state statute defining bed and breakfasts Feb. 24. Defining such establishments had been a matter of contention when residents of the riverside town took issue with a new development, referred to as the Brendel Guest House. The city approved a sewer line extension for the proposed development last year, but neighbors of the property claimed the land is not zoned properly for the business, which would be located between two residential homes.

The planning commission took up discussion on a city ordinance amendment, which would have defined a guest house on the city’s books. It ultimately shot down the proposal due to concerns of overreach in scope, lack of need and the city’s outdated zoning map. City council followed the commission’s recommendation and rejected the amendment, as well. Bed and breakfasts, as defined in state statute, are owner-occupied structures with no more than five guest rooms. The owner may live on a property contiguous to the business if not living in the same building as the guests. Such businesses are also subject to Illinois fire marshal regulations for two-family dwellings, including fire extinguishers on each floor, metal trash containers, and no cooking facilities in guest rooms. Operators of bed and breakfasts

must also be certified by the local health department. According to the state statute, corporate authorities for counties and municipalities will provide for regulation, inspections and safe operations of such businesses. The council also approved a resolution amending a services agreement with Good Energy, the company with which local municipalities have worked to secure electric aggregation agreements for their residents. Alderman Jerry Bauersachs took umbrage with some of the language in the agreement brought before the council. He suggested the council reword sections to give it a means of terminating the agreement if it so chooses. “If we go into an agreement for five years, and five years from now it’s automatically renewed, we stay (See, grafton, a2)

The students, in Curt Schroeder's drafting class, were fine tuning their medieval catapults in preperation for a contest at Lewis and Clark Community College at the end of March.

By BOB CROSSEN Jersey County Journal Piggy-backing on the success of digital registration last year, the Jersey Community Unit School District 100 aims to improve the online process for the coming year. Keith Norman, Jersey 100 technology director, said a committee of administrators and secretaries will be meeting before the end of the month to finalize plans for registration. Last year when families forgot passwords to their online accounts used to register students for school, they had nobody to turn to so they could recover the account. Norman said most people called the district secretaries, who then relayed the questions to the M

appropriate person. He said providing re-registration in the spring in addition to the registration periods in the summer should best serve the public, while also giving them some financial options to pay for fees. “We’re going to be able to mass add all the registration fees in the spring, and do a Skyward call to tell parents they will see this on their account,” Norman said. “They won’t have to pay it until next year, but if they want to start paying that down, they can do that now.” Offering step payment plans has been discussed by the board since it began implementing its digital conversion. Although there had been some setbacks due to the technology, board member Ruth Eschbach said the result will be helpful for parents. (See, unit 100, a2)

Coats

(Continued from A1) standing in his Jerseyville business. “This is our primary address.” Information from the state board of elections states candidates for mayor and city council must have at least one year of residency in the municipality in which they are running before they are eligible for office. In an interview Tuesday afternoon, Coats said he has lived at his shop in Jerseyville for more than a year. He said he could not afford the property in Carrollton, and chose to move back into his shop. While he still owns the Carrollton property, he said he will be trying to sell it. The Jersey County state’s attorney said his office is not the proper authority to investigate complaints regarding Coats’ eligibility to run for municipal office in Jerseyville. But, he said he has contacted the state board of elections and Jersey County Clerk Pam Warford in an attempt to identify the proper channels. What he found, Goetten said, was that the statutory deadline for challenging a candidate’s qualifications has passed and that any action that would affect eligibility at this point would have to come in the form of injunctive relief from the circuit court. “I know I can speak for Pam Warford when I say we both take the integrity of our electoral process here in Jersey County very seriously,” Goetten said. “There are statutory rules and regulations which safeguard this process, and citizens do have legal remedies to ensure a fair and impartial election.” Still, based on the information Goetten was presented, he said neither he nor the county clerk received any evidence that indicates Coats does not reside in Jerseyville. Coats is registered to vote in Jerseyville – also a board of elec-

tions requirement – from his business address on Adams Street, according to information from the Jersey County clerk’s office. Coats has been registered to vote from the address since May 2009, despite acknowledging he lived in Greene County during that time span. He has voted just once – the November 2014 General Election – in Jerseyville, at a time which he said he was living in the city. The complaints regarding his residency may be rooted even deeper than this election, Coats believes. “We’ve had issues with ordinance violations here in town. It started in ‘96 and it’s been going on until today,” he said. Coats said he’s had visits from inspectors who have looked into his fire safety and plumbing of the building. He said he “rubbed the code enforcement people wrong” in the city, and believes the inspections were retaliation of sorts. “They couldn’t get me on something, so they looked for something else,” Coats said. “It’s not a way for a city to act against a business.” Coats has received a dozen ordinance violation tickets since 2008 for junk/trash, violation of zoning code, unlicensed/inoperable vehicles, unsafe or unsightly buildings and tall grass. Beginning in 2011, Coats was a plaintiff in two lawsuits, which were consolidated, against the city. The complaints alleged the defendants – the entire city council and mayor – violated the Freedom of Information Act, Illinois Municipal Code, Open Meetings Act and the Illinois Local Records Act. The cases were all decided in the city’s favor for various reasons. The city hired Belleville attorney Charles Pierce to defend the lawsuits, at a cost of $23,094.50.

JERSEY COUNTY JOURNAL

Curtis Adams Phase II on horizon By RoBeRt Lyons Jersey County Journal An area on the southeast side of Jerseyville is lined up for more improvements to address water drainage issues. Grant money has been secured to pay a majority of the costs associated with the second phase of a project referred to as Curtis Adams, a reference to two streets in the area. The first phase, which was completed in late-2013, created drainage paths and a detention basin for standing water to be diverted to in the event of heavy rains. The second phase will utilize the existing detention basin and will create more water pathways to serve residents living north of the first phase. Eventually, there may be a third phase to the project. Andy Macias, Jerseyville’s commissioner of streets and public improvements, said the upgrades to the neighborhoods affected by the flat land is long overdue. “It’s been like this forever. It’s just a flat area,

and what hurt things – it’s not people’s fault but – they would put their own ditches or culverts in and they would direct the piping to their neighbors. Then the neighbor would get the water, and they’d pipe their ditch,” Macias said. “We just had to get this whole area drained.” Macias said the federal government began grant programs following Hurricane Ike in 2008 to help alleviate problems associated with flooding and other natural disasters. Ike Grant money paid a significant portion of the costs associated with Phase 1 of the Curtis Adams project. The first phase relieved area residents of flooding and water damage. Some had complained of water leaking into their basements, and others noted standing water required them to take detours just to enter their homes at times. The second phase aims to have the same benefit, but provide relief to more residents. Macias said there are 129 residents in 71 homes included in Phase 2 of the Curtis Adams project. “We are addressing the open ditches and putting in storm sewer pipe to help direct all of the

for many municipalities would coincide with each other to further increase leverage to seek low electricity rates, potentially bumping the number from 250,000 households to double that figure. Mayor Tom Thompson said he and other representatives are going to a meeting in March during which they will approve a new contract for their residents. In other business, the council: n Approved the minutes of the previous meeting, payment to Heafner Contracting for the city hall addition, the treasurer’s report and bills. n Approved a business license for Cynthia Hand to operate Vintage Vanilla, a home furnishings retail shop located at 311 Main St. n Tabled a resolution to cancel all leases of Joe DeSherlia for the Grafton Marina. n Heard a presentation from the Alton Regional Convention and Visitors Bureau regarding the bureau’s efforts to promote Grafton.

(Continued from A1) “All of you guys should be commended for that because it’s something I know that was thought about many, many years ago and now here it is. I think it’s great,” Eschbach said. Additionally, Alan Churchman, district administrator, told the board about a gully encroaching on school property at Grafton Elementary school. On the south side of the building, he said, there is a small cliff-edge, the dirt of which has slowly slipped down the hill. Still around 50 feet from the building, Churchman said it does not pose an immediate threat, although fixing it is in the district’s best interest. The fall is blocked by a fence that stands around 15 feet from the drop-off, meaning a safety measure is in place to prevent children from falling into the gully.

Options to fix the gully include a concrete wall to support the land or sloping the ground away from the school. Either direction the district takes will likely incur a six-figure expense, he added. Churchman said the district should address the problem this summer. In other business, the board: n Approved the resignation of Joe Lawrence as the automotive technology teacher effective at the end of the school year. n Approved Robert Johnson, Jill Blackorby, Kathy Dunham, Victoria Meyer, Patricia Newell and Amy Welch as temporary bus drivers. n Approved the list of extracurricular camp requests. n Approved the minutes of the previous meeting and the bills. n Approved the 2015-2016 school calendar. n Approved summer school for Jersey Community High School.

standing water to the detention basin,” Macias said. “We’re just taking the whole project and helping the areas farther north, now.” The first phase began in 2011 and was completed in late 2013. Macias said the second phase will not be nearly as intensive. The second phase of the project, he said, builds on the infrastructure put in place during Phase 1. “This won’t be as detailed, or as lengthy, because the detention basin was the biggest piece there,” Macias said. “We had to acquire some land for it. Here, we’re on people’s property on right-of-ways through the city.” The city has received notice it has been awarded a $450,000 grant through the department of commerce and economic opportunity that will be used to pay for engineering, design and construction costs. The total cost of the project is estimated at $600,000, leaving the city to pay $150,000. The project’s second phase is currently still in its planning phase. Selection of an engineering firm is the next step.

Many safe locations for eagle watching By BoB CRossen Jersey County Journal Snow and ice haven’t been the only thing slowing down traffic along roadways on the river front. During the height of the season, some eagle watchers were stepping into roadways while others, still in their cars, would slow to a crawl, in some cases even park, to see the birds. Grafton Police Chief Chris Sullivan said the problem has eased over the past few weeks. Grafton is a prime location to see the birds hunt in a natural habitat. “It’s a good place to find eagles, good place to spot them, good place to watch them fishing, flying, up in the trees,” Sullivan said. “Occasionally, some people get carried away and

park in places that can be an issue, but for the most part, it’s a pretty harmless form of entertainment.” During weekends in the riverside city, traffic can become congested from the shear number of visitors. Sometimes eagle-watching sparks the inspiration in guests to visit Grafton, but when a tourist slows down to observe a bird while driving, it can create hazards on roadways. Jersey County Sheriff Mark Kallal said there was also an incident in which an eagle watcher on foot was walking into the roadway for a better view. Law enforcement was alerted, but nobody was harmed. “There’s a lot more people watching them, I guess. There’s a lot more around then there has been,” Kallal said, adding those viewing eagles should be cautious of their surround-

City Attorney Jim Schrempf removed language, particularly the word automatic, from the agreement to align with the council’s desire. The services agreement ties into a push from Grafton, and other municipalities in the area, to secure electricity for their residents at a low rate. By combining the households of multiple cities into one agreement for purchasing leverage, individual users can get rates as low as the largest industrial user. Jerseyville and Grafton residents approved referendums to allow city representation to purchase electric services for residents in elections in November of 2012 and March of 2013, respectively. At the time of Grafton’s first contract, Good Energy representatives said the contractual endings

ings to ensure they and others are safe. Scott Isringhausen, Pere Marquette fishing coordinator, said there are plenty of places at the state park and at nearby locations to view eagles safely. “The marina, across from the park, is a good place where you can pull in there away from everybody. The eagles have tended to be on the other side of the river, but still, if you have a good pair of binoculars, you should be able to see them,” Isringhausen said. Just east of the Brussels Ferry off of the Illinois River Road is a street leading to Gilbert Lake where there is also a parking lot. From that area, Isringhausen said bird watchers can view eagles on the river pretty clearly.

Finding eagles with the river frozen is unlikely, however. Without a means to swoop down to the water’s surface to snag a fish, Isringhausen said the birds migrate to areas less impeded by ice. One such area is on the west side of the Winfield Ferry in Calhoun County. “In the past, when everything freezes up, that’s a real good place,” Isringhausen said, noting the birds will spread out more when ice on the rivers clear. That ferry is often used when river conditions close the Golden Eagle Ferry, and during those times eagles are also more likely to be seen around there. Near Godar Diamond north of Hardin, he said eagles have occasionally been spotted, as well.

(Continued from A1) County board members in their official capacities,” according to the complaint. Houseman’s complaint notes board members Ed Koenig, Roger Newberry, Rhonda Linders, Jeff Ferguson and Houseman requested legal counsel represent them in the matter, but were denied such counsel. In an affidavit of claim filed Feb. 20, Houseman claims former board member Jeff Ferguson emailed Goetten about the county providing legal representation for board members in the matter, but was told neither the county nor the state’s attorney’s office would provide that service. Houseman secured outside legal services from J. Thomas Long and Philip Lading. The total amount Houseman seeks in the suit against Goetten and the county is $13,458.66, a liability Houseman said should be reimbursed. Among the documents filed in the suit is an invoice dated March 10, 2014 for a total of $819.13. It claims the previous balance due is $13,458.66, but the invoice prior to the March 10 invoice is not filed with the complaint. Itemization of a bill that would reach the more than $13,000 figure was requested by a Jersey County Journal reporter, but was not provided before press time. When reached for comment, Houseman reiterated the points made in the complaint, noting he

feels the county should reimburse him for the legal costs to defend him and other board members from the temporary restraining order filed by the state’s attorney against the county board. Goetten said the complaint has been forwarded to the county’s insurance carrier for review. He stood by his decision to file for injunctive relief in the matter last year. “The petition was filed in good faith in an attempt to protect Jersey County and the taxpayers from potential liability,” Goetten said in a statement Feb. 24. “After consulting with the Appellate Prosecutors Office, I determined that an injunction was the best way to ensure compliance with the Open Meetings Act, and limit any further liability for the county. I am confident that the county and state’s attorney’s office will prevail against this baseless complaint.” Houseman requested he be reimbursed for the legal fees with an insurance claim made to the Illinois County Insurance Trust, the county’s insurance company, last year. ICIT conducted the insurance investigation that produced the confidential letter that was ultimately leaked to the public. The complaint is set for a court date of March 3 at 9 a.m. in Jersey County Circuit Court. Houseman requested a substitution in judge, which led to the assignment of Judge Joshua Meyer, Macoupin County associate judge, to the case.

Become a 4-H Citizen Scientist and help improve the local environment Each time they recite the 4-H pledge, 4-H members promise to use their “hands to larger service.” Now, Illinois 4-H members are taking that pledge to a new level as they use science to improve the communities in which they live. With financial support from Archer Daniels Midland, the 4-H Citizen Scientist program provides junior and senior high youth opportunities to extend learning beyond current 4-H project work into the world of hands-on research. As a citizen scientist, 4-H members observe and record information from an environmental area close to their home. The members will collect data from samples taken at their site and contribute their data to the growing field of scientific research related to water quality. The program is open to current 4-H members and volunteers, as we well as youth and adults who aren’t current members but wish to learn how to improve their local environment. All participants will receive

specialized training at no cost and receive materials toward the project. The next Citizen Scientist training closest to area residents will be held at the following locations. Saturday, March 28 at NGRRE Center in Godfrey. Registration is due March 20. Saturday, April 11 at Benedictine University in Springfield. Registration is due April 3. Saturday, May 2 at The Nature Institute in Godfrey. Registration is due April 24. Participants are required to attend one day of training, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. To register, one may contact your local Extension office at 618498-2913. 4-H members and adult volunteers will be trained in this stream-monitoring program and, in turn, help monitor water quality of Illinois wadeable streams. Each 4-H Citizen Scientist team will be assigned a stream site in their community to monitor over the course of the summer.

Upon successful completion of the Illinois RiverWatch training, each 4-H Citizen Scientist team will receive a 4-H Citizen Scientist Took Kit. The kit will contain supplies needed to conduct the monitoring over the summer. 4-H Citizen Scientists will be contributing new knowledge to the field of water quality monitoring here in Illinois. “Adults interested in environmental issues might find 4-H Citizen Scientist to their liking,” said University of Illinois 4-H Youth Development Specialist Bill Million, “especially if they like working with youth on relevant environmental issues. “Additionally, this program offers certified Master Naturalists’ an opportunity to work alongside and guide 4-H members as they study the world around them,” Million said. Master Naturalists are encouraged to contact their local Extension Office to see how they can become involved.

The organization has also started a Laptop

Lending Library for teen and young adult patients to work on homework, Skype with friends and family, etc. All of the programs offered for the entire family are in place to ease the already heavily burdened minds and pockets of parents trying to care for their children while in treatment.

igns are springing up. Issues are being raised. Ballots are being printed. Babies will soon start being kissed.

It’s already that time again…another election. It may still be cold outside, but campaign season is heating up. On April 7, voters will once again be asked to head to the polls to make important choices that will guide local government moving forward. Though consolidated elections do not traditionally see strong voter turnout, there are several races and questions on the ballot that are vital to the future of the county. In the coming weeks, Jersey County Journal will help present some of the pertinent information voters need to make informed choices when they head to the polls. But, that does not mean residents should avoid educating themselves in the meantime. The candidates vying for positions on the school board and city councils represent varying positions in regards to taxes, civic duty and other financial topics. Newly elected members are almost certain to make changes that will steer their respective body on to a new path. Jerseyville City Council, for example, is guaranteed to lose at least three current members. Yvonne Hartmann and Glen Ketchum decided not to run for another term. Billy Russell and Andy Macias are running against each other for the mayor’s seat, so at least one of them will no longer have a seat in the council chambers. With Cliff Coats also vying for mayor, there’s a chance both Russell and Macias will be gone. Property tax extension limitation law (PTELL) and a onecent sales tax for the school district are far and away the most controversial issues on which voters will decide. The sales tax initiative failed in the recent November election, but the school board is trying it one more time, hopeful voters will recognize a self-imposed tax could help solve the district’s financial crisis. The voters said they deserve the right to decide PTELL during the November election. But, now the question is: is it right for Jersey County? It has been a hotly debated topic throughout the community and in the letters to the editor portion of the Journal. We hope Jersey County residents will buck the trend of not turning out to cast ballots in April. There’s just too much at stake to sit back and not have a say.

A- Yes. B- No. C- I don’t know. D- I don’t use Facebook. This poll is not scientific and reflects the opinion of those who chose to respond

JOURNAL SEEKING GUEST COLUMNISTS If anyone is interested in submitting a guest column, please contact the Journal. There are many topics out there and we have found that our readers have a lot of thoughtful things to say, on a broad range of topics. Columns, like letters, should add to the public discourse in a helpful way.

Guest columns are submitted by a rotating roster of columnists or are simply sent in unsolicited and, if appropriate, are published. These columns do not reflect the views of the newspaper, only the writer. Length is no more than 800 words. Deadlines are Tuesday at 10 a.m. Topics are the choice of the columnist although we encourage our contributors to avoid obviously inflammatory issues (religion, abortion, etc.). Though we are a local paper, contributors are free to write about national or international issues (the pledge, the war, Social Security, health care, etc.). The Journal reserves the right to hold, edit or withdraw a column.

These guest columns are an opportunity for our contributors to share an idea, an opinion or information; it is not an opportunity to sell a product or a service. We are looking for informed opinion and lively debate. Our only requirements are that your column have relevance to our community and our readership and be responsibly written (no personal attacks or self promotion, for example).

Finding spirituality in your workouts I

t’s that time of year when the resolutions we made to get thinner and fitter are already beginning to wear on us. We could sure use a new view of why we should continue doing things such as running. Well, did you know: “Running is definitely a spiritual exercise!”? Yep, at least according to Arbit in his running blog. That may surprise you. Most of us consider our workouts strictly physical, maybe even social, but spiritual? Spirituality can mean different things to different people. Arbit finds his running workouts not just physical exercise, but a time that uplifts his spirit. Some forms of working out can certainly provide a time and place for exploring what it means to be spiritual and how our understanding of that impacts our lives. I often find a swim or an early morning walk extremely beneficial to my wellbeing. I use these times to pray and

think deeply about my life. After these workouts, I feel able to tackle my very busy day. Like many other people, I see my spirituality as linked to a power that is always present love - divine Love. This is a Love that can be felt and known, as well as expressed through forgiveness, joy, compassion and gratitude. I have found this understanding to be the key to strength and health. These words of health and spirituality writer Mary Baker Eddy define how I feel after I pray, “Let us feel the divine energy of Spirit, bringing us into newness of life…” (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures). I remember a day when I had acted badly towards a co-worker and was feeling ashamed and stressed. I went for a swim, not for the exercise, but for a quiet place to pray. I prayed for forgiveness and direction in how to be more loving. Within a short time, I felt much calmer. I later

apologized, Guest and was able Column to treat my coworker kindly. BY TIM The swimming MITCHINSON itself might have made my heart stronger, but it couldn’t do anything to help me address the real problem I faced that day. It was the prayer time that “uplifted” my view of who I was and who my co-worker was - both connected to Love - and eliminated the shame and stress. We can all exercise our spirituality each day – and feel the divine energy that brings us “newness of life.” ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

Your VIEWS Outlines cuts in state, federal funding TO THE EDITOR: In my last letter I promised to give you the information of just how much Jersey County schools have lost because of the state and federal funding cuts. To justify my words and facts, you too can find this information from the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) at these two websites: 1. isbe.net/funding/pdf/gsa_overview.pdf 2. isbe.net/funding/pdf/gsa-historical.pdf Federal funding Jersey CUSD #100 receives federal funds for Title 1 and Title II programs. Title I funds are based on the number of free and reduced lunch students in the district and is used to give assistance for reading and reading progress. Based on the number of qualifying students the district received $357,300 in FY 2011. However, this was still a Loss of Revenue (LOR) for 23.72 percent of what the district should have received. In FY 2012, the LOR was 11.60 precent, in FY 2013 the LOR was 17.02 percent and in FY 2014 a LOR of 23.76 percent. Title II has to be used for materials and teacher training for the “Highly Qualified” federal mandate base on No Child Left Behind, passed in 2001. In FY 2011, there was a LOR of 1.17 percent, in FY 2012 a LOR of 12.21 percent, in FY 2013 a LOR of 13.87 percent in in FY 2014 a LOR of 15.95 percent. State funding State Funding, called General State AId (GSA), is based on the Average Daily Attendance (ADA) of the district. The ADA takes the district enrollment compared to the average number of students that attend class each day and is given a set amount for each student. Student attendance is a difficult number to predict when building a budget. The GSA for this year is supposed to be $6,119 per attending student. Because of prorating in the 2011-2012 the district received 95 percent of what it should have received. That is equal to a Loss of Revenue (LOR) of $351,135 in FY 2012-13 the GSA was prorated to 89 percent which equaled a LOR $768,926 to the district. In FY 2013-14 the proration was set at 88.5 percent which gave the dis-

trict a loss of $741,711. The total amount lost in general state aid was $1,861,722. Transportation Prorated General Education Transportation Reimbursement in FY 2011-2012 was set at 74 percent which gave the district a loss of $305,314. In FY 201213 the proration was set at 78 percent, once again a loss of $236,030. In FY 2013-2014 the district was prorated at 75 percent, a loss of $243,133. The total loss for three years in transportation funds was $804,477 to the district. Side note: District #100 has the second largest transportation bus routes in the state of Illinois. In my next letter I would like to share with you what the district has done to deal with these funding cuts by the state of Illinois. GEORGE HATFILL Jerseyville, Ill.

Apologizes for any unintended offense TO THE EDITOR: In my last letter to the editor I implied that all Democrats are telling lies about PTELL and I didn’t mean to come across that way. There are Democrats who do support PTELL and are very supportive of the conservatives in our county who are trying to make a difference. Maybe I should have said “the tax-and-spend crowd” or something like that. I meant no offense by what I said and I do apologize if I did offend anyone. Here is a list of the town hall meetings that are coming up: Dow Baptist Church, March 7 at 10 a.m. Grafton Town Hall, March 7 at 1 p.m. Rosedale Methodist Church, March 7 at 3:30 p.m. Fieldon Baptist Church, March 7 at 6 p.m. Jerseyville United Methodist Church, March 14 at 1:30 - 3 p.m. You are encouraged to attend any of these meetings that you can and you will be able to meet the candidates for school board.

MONEY MATTERS

The first steps toward financing your next vehicle

When purchasing a new car, many buyers decide to finance rather than buying the car outright. Financing allows drivers the opportunity to drive a new car after making an initial down payment and then making monthly payments until the loan has been paid in full.

Without the option to finance, many drivers may not be able to afford a brand new car or even a preowned car with relatively few miles that's more reliable than an older used car with a considerable amount of miles. But before prospective buyers visit the financing departments of any dealerships, it's best to first take some steps to ensure they get the best

financing deal possible.

· Address your credit score. Your credit score will go a long way toward determining both your eligibility to finance a car as well as the interest rate on the loan should you be approved. Get a copy of your credit report from a credit reporting agency and scour it to determine if there are any discrepancies or blemishes that need to be addressed. If your credit score is low, try to delay buying a new car until you can take steps to improve your score. Such steps may include paying down existing debt, establishing a history of paying on time and making certain that any inaccuracies are removed.

· Determine how much you can afford. It might be your dream to tool around town in an imported sports car, but if you need to finance your next car, chances are the high-end imports or luxury automobiles are more than you can afford. The greater the down payment you make, the less your monthly payment will be. So if you have a substantial amount of money in your savings, you may want to put more down at signing so your budget is more flexible month-to-month. Calculate the cost of all of your monthly expenses to determine how much you can afford to pay for a car each month. And don't forget that insurance costs on a brand

Build a travel budget without compromising your trip Many men and women dream of vacationing overseas, where they can experience another country's culture and history. Such trips tend to be expensive, but travelers who develop a budget in advance of their trips can still make the most of their vacations without compromising the spirit of the trip. • Building a budget in advance removes some of the sticker shock that can hit travelers once they arrive on foreign soil. Budgeting requires some research, and that research can shed light on what travelers can expect to pay for things like food and transportation. When done correctly, travelers can even have fun building a travel budget, as it can help them plan for a more enjoyable trip that won't fall short because the money has run dry. • Start saving early. If you already know when you will be leaving, then you can start saving immediately. Putting aside as little as $20 per week for spending money on your trip can add up to a significant amount of money by the time you embark on your trip. Set up automatic transfers at your bank so you can make weekly contributions to a vacation savings account. If it means skipping a night out once a week, then so be it. You will be glad you made that sacrifice once you arrive at your destination.

• Plan a night in. If your trip will last a week or longer, plan a night in at the hotel. You can relax by the pool at night instead of hitting the town, and this respite from the nightlife can save you money and help you recharge your batteries. Many resorts offer nightly activities free of charge to guests, so take them up on these offers on nights you plan to stay in. • Give yourself some wiggle room. Once you have created a budget, make

sure you have left yourself some wiggle room in the case of an emergency or another unforeseen expense. Leaving some wiggle room protects you from having to rely on credit in the case of an emergency, and it also gives you more peace of mind on your trip.

• Consider an all-inclusive vacation. If you have yet to book your vacation but you know your budget is likely to be tight, an all-inclusive vacation might be just what you're looking for. Such vacations include lodging and all meals and beverages and may even include some activities arranged by the resort. Many people find it convenient and stress-free to book an allinclusive vacation because the cost of the trip is paid for upfront, often well in advance of their departure dates. So by the time you arrive at your destination, all you need to worry about is relaxing and having fun. • Set aside some money for keepsakes. Many people want to buy keepsakes from their trip, so don't forget to set aside some money for such souvenirs when building your travel budget. Don't go overboard when allotting money for souvenirs, as you probably don't want to buy unique but expensive home furnishings that won't blend well with your existing home décor. Your photographs can serve as reminders of your trip; set aside only a small amount of money for souvenirs so you have more to spend on activities and dining out.

· Seek preapproval for a loan. Much like you might get preapproved for a mortgage, you can do the same with regard to an automotive loan. Walking into a dealership preapproved for a loan can make the process less of a hassle, and it also might compel a dealer to make a more attractive offer than the lender who preapproved you. · Don't pressure yourself. Many buyers are their own worst enemies when it comes to buying a new car. If you were preapproved for an auto loan, you might

feel like you need to go out and buy a new car immediately. While a preapproval may mandate that you buy a car within a certain amount of days before you have to reapply, that still gives you a considerable amount of time to find a car. If you pressure yourself to buy a new car, you may end up driving the wrong vehicle or paying too much. Be patient when shopping for the best deal, and you're more likely to find it. Financing is a great way to get behind the wheel of your next vehicle. Some careful planning before visiting the dealership can make a financing deal even better.

Building a vacation budget might not be the most enjoyable part of traveling, but it's necessary for travelers who know they do not have unlimited amounts of money to spend on their trips.

NEWS

Alton to offer tours of the Underground Railroad in February and March Take a journey on the infamous Underground Railroad in Alton during a series of two-hour guided shuttle tours scheduled for Saturdays in February and March courtesy of the Alton Regional Convention and Visitors Bureau. Renowned Underground Railroad historian J.E. Robinson will be the conductor on these journeys taking visitors to the sites scattered throughout Alton, Godfrey and Jersey County where escaped slaves took refuge as they worked their way to freedom more than 150 years ago. While there were no railroad tracks or trains present on the Underground Railroad, the effort to find freedom from slavery resulted in a series of deliberate and organized safe places for those escaping bondage. Located in the free state of Illinois, Alton’s riverfront location along the Mighty Mississippi played a vital role in helping slaves make connections to freedom in the northern U.S. Scattered throughout Alton and surrounding areas, remnants of this period in history still exist. Learn about some of these sites on an Underground Railroad Tour on March 7 and 28. The tours

will continue on the last Saturday of each month through September. These tours are scheduled for 10 a.m. to noon and also from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. on both days. Cost is $25 per person. Boarding will be at the Alton Visitor Center, 200 Piasa St., Alton, and the shuttle will return passengers to the visitor’s center at the conclusion of the tour. A few of the stops will include the Old Rock House on College Avenue, the Enos Apartments on 3rd Street, the Elijah P. Lovejoy Monument and burial site, the College Avenue Presbyterian Church and Rocky Fork Church. The Old Rock House was the site of the Anti-Slavery Society and a station on the railroad. At the Enos Apartments underground tunnels exist 15 feet below 3rd Street and resemble Roman catacombs. The building played a crucial role during the Civil War as an Underground Railroad stop. The basement contains a sealed tunnel that reportedly was the passageway to hidden rooms where slaves rested during the day before traveling at night to the next safe house. Rocky Fork Church, which is located in Godfrey, originated

before the Civil War when free people and slaves crossed the Mississippi River to begin life in Illinois, which was a free state. According to the National Park Service, as early as 1816, Rocky Fork Church was one of the first Free State stops for slaves escaping Missouri. In the 1830s, a more organized Underground Railroad route was established through the African Methodist Episcopal Church. This area continued to serve as both a way stop and escapee community after the Missouri Emancipation Proclamation of 1865. For more information on the Underground Railroad shuttle tours or to make advance registrations, please contact the Alton Regional Convention and Visitors Bureau at 800-258-6645.

Number, please? By BArBArA EdwArdS SACkmAn For the Journal If you had telephone service in Jerseyville prior to September 1963, you will remember hearing “number, please” every time you picked up your telephone. Many local women were the faces behind those words. Barbara Sackman, along with many other local women, worked as a telephone operator from 1947 until the dial system took over in 1963 and then in the business office until it closed in 1981. She reveals a few of the duties of a Jerseyville telephone operator besides asking what number you wanted to call. The city siren was controlled at the telephone office, located at 209 S. Washington at that time, and it was the duty of the operator to sound the siren at noon every day to tell the city it was lunch time, and again at 9 p.m. to tell all the kids it was time to quit playing outside and head for home. When there was a fire to be reported it was called first to the telephone operator who again rang the siren and waited for the volunteer firemen to call in for the location of the fire. Then, many of the rest of the town picked up their phones to ask the operator, “Where’s the fire?” Another frequent question put to the operator was, “What time is it?” Local doctors always called the operator to let them know where they would be if they were not going to be at home after their office hours. The operators especially always know where Dr. Gorecki was. The information operator had to know what “Butch” Shaw’s real first name was because the customer couldn’t find “Butch” Shaw in the directory. Remember that when you nickname your kids. During many of these years the county had as many as 10 customers sharing a party line, five on the R side and five on the W side. This took special care on the part of the operator to count how many times she pulled the key to tell the customer being called to answer because the phones in the other four homes rang at the same time. Sackman doesn’t remember what year the number of customers was cut down from 10, but when the company converted to dial in 1963 there were still several sharing party lines in town as well as in the county. Until 1963, Sackman says being a telephone operator was probably the best part-time job a high school girl could have in Jerseyville. It was not hard physically, it was clean and you sat down. Ask any of the former telephone operators about that job and they will all say they liked it. There was a big turnover in help, mainly because of the hours. It was a seven-day week and all holidays with some split shifts. The hours worked were from 6

a.m. to 10 p.m. There was one operator who worked the 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. shift, and she had a cot and was allowed to sleep with a night bell to wake her if a call was needed. Sackman remembers only one time being called in to help, and that night there was a

If a doctor has confirmed that it is okay to participate in sports, these activities can help men and women 50 and older enjoy friendly competition and physical activity. Fishing Fishing is more than just a leisurely day at the lake. Casting and reeling in your catch provides a good workout for the arms, legs and core

muscles of the body. If you fish on the water, rowing out to your lucky spot provides additional cardiovascular exercise. Golf Golf is enjoyed by people of all ages. Requiring a combination of strategy and skill, golf also pays several physical dividends. Play at your own pace, taking your time walking from hole to hole so you can enjoy the sunshine and soak in the beauty of the course. Swimming A few laps around a pool works

Specialties in Jerseyville:

Seniors need not abandon their love of sport just because Father Time is catching up with them. Many sports can be enjoyed by athletes of all ages.

A fabulous entertainer in need of some sturdy stilettos, Lola turns out to be the one person who can help Charlie become the man he’s meant to be. As they work to turn the factory around, this unlikely pair finds that they have more in common than they ever dreamed possible… and discovers that when you change your mind about someone, you can change your whole world.

Celebrating Jerseyville’s FFA Chapter

The Jerseyville FFA chapter was chartered in 1929, the same year as the Illinois FFA Association. The National FFA Organization is dedicated to making a positive difference in

the lives of students by developing their potential for premier leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education. The Jerseyville FFA has been very busy this past

year. It has been involved in community events, many contests, and chapter activities. This week is FFA Week and this is what the chapter has been up to.

SECTION 15 LOCK-IN

RESTORATION PROJECT

Blake Lott paints the Farmall M that the Ag mechanics class is restoring. The tractor was generously donated by Dean and Karen Davenport and has given students a great hands-on learning experience in Ag Mechanics.

The Jerseyville FFA members attended the Section 15 FFA Lock-In Feb. 13. Members participated in events such as roller skating, rock climbing, basketball, laser tag, and other activities. There were approximately 200 students at the lock-in from school throughout section 15. Left to right, Brennon Bol- linger, Hayden Winters, Cory Rowling, Krista Russell, Tony Randolph, and Austin Wolfel.

A career in agriculture can prove richly rewarding. While it's common to envision overalls and tractors when imagining careers in agriculture, the opportunities to work in the agriculture industry stretch beyond the farm and into the corporate world. The following are a few of the paths men and women with a passion for agriculture can pursue. * Business: Agriculture is big business, and the industry has many opportunities for those who want to pursue a career in business. Farmers and producers of agricultural products need someone to draft contracts for their agreements with the large corporations who distribute those products. In addition, purchasing agents and agricultural financiers are just two of the many career opportunities that enable men and women to work on the business side of agriculture. * Social service: The agricultural industry also has positions of social service. In addition to food inspector, who ensures agricultural products are safe for human

consumption, social service positions within the agricultural industry include environmental consultant and conservation officer. Men and women can also work to develop programs that encourage youngsters to pursue careers in the agricultural industry. * Production: Of course, the agricultural industry has a host of careers for those who want to get their hands dirty. Farms need to be plowed, seeds must be planted and fertilized and farms need to be well-maintained to continue operating efficiently and effectively. Though technology has taken the place of many agricultural production positions, there are still many opportunities out there for those who want to work under the sun. * Education: Those who want to share their love of agriculture with others can put their skills to work in the classroom. Agricultural instructors can train the next generation of agriculture professionals at the university or high school level, ensuring today's farms are left in good hands tomorrow.

Jersey boys prepare for regional action By Kory Carpenter Jersey County Journal Tuesday night’s 53-41 loss to Waterloo knocked the Jersey boys basketball team out of Mississippi Valley Conference title contention, but the seeds are set for next week’s regional and the Panthers (15-12 overall as of Wednesday) will have the luxury of hosting. The Panthers are the regional's No. 4 seed and will play Triad Monday at 7 p.m. in the JCHS gymnasium. But unlike most regionals, the difference between the top seed – Alton Marquette – and the rest of the field is not as noticeable. Jerseyville split the season series with Marquette, losing by two on the road before winning by two in Jerseyville on Jan. 24. “It was hard to seed,” Jersey head coach Stote Reeder said. “I don’t think there was any right or wrong way to seed it. I think all top four teams had reasons why they could have been the No. 1 seed.” Michael Weaver/Jersey County Journal The Panthers also split with their first Jersey’s Jacob Witt looks for an open teammate tuesday night against Waterloo. round opponent, Triad.

Southwestern injury dooms postseason run By Kory Carpenter Jersey County Journal Southwestern head coach Steve Wooley’s 18 seasons coaching girls basketball could not prepare him for this season. His team had won 20 of its first 22 games and looked like one of the top Class 2A teams in the state. Then the Macoupin County Tournament rolled around, and everything changed. Junior forward Kelsey Rhoades dislocated her left kneecap in the first quarter of the first round game against Gillespie, and the Piasa Birds would not be the same. “I can’t remember an injury that bad with that bad of timing,” Wooley said two days after Southwestern’s 44-39 Sectional Semifinals loss to Athens. Last week’s game against Athens

was physical in the paint. It was just the type of game Rhoades excelled in, and it was just the type of game that made Southwestern vulnerable with Rhoades on the bench. Wooley said Athens was just as quick as Southwestern, which was rare this season. “And without Kelsey they had the advantage inside on us,” Wooley said. “And they took advantage.” After starting the season 20-2 the Piasa Birds went 8-2 down the stretch, but were able to finish the regular season with an undefeated record in the South Central Conference before winning a regional championship. Junior guard Maddie Greeling, who was already the focus of almost every defense, was honed in on even more the last three weeks of the season without Rhoades in the lineup.

“We saw it all,” Wooley said, mentioning all the different types of defenses teams deployed to slow down Greeling and force the Birds to score down low. “I thought our kids did a good job overall of adjusting to losing Kelsey. I don’t think I could have asked them to adjust any better than they did.” Southwestern will lose two starters to graduation, Payton Heyen and Ashlyn Ringhausen. Everyone else should return, including Rhoades, who could be ready for softball in as little as three weeks. “With Kelsey in the lineup there is no doubt in my mind we would have played Monday night in the sectional final,” Wooley said. “But with the type of season we had this year, all you can hope for is that they have big aspirations for next year.”

Jersey’s Brandon Critchfield wrestles Washington’s Blaize Punke Friday in Champaign. Critchfield won by decision, 6-1.

Critchfield finishes fifth in state tournament By Kory Carpenter Jersey County Journal Jersey junior wrestler Brandon Critchfield finished fifth in the 132-pound weight class of the Class 2A state tournament last weekend in Champaign. It was the second furthest a Jersey wrestler has advanced in the postseason in head coach Allen Snyder’s tenure with the school. Critchfield also holds that record after finishing fourth a season ago. Critchfield lost his first match against De La Salle’s Robert Zebrauskas, 4-3, but could still have potentially wrestled back for a third place finish. Critchfield won his next two matches, 6-1 and 5-4, before losing to Noah Keefe of Lincoln-Way West, 8-4. That set up a rematch with Zebrauskas in the fifth place match. Snyder said he noticed a change in Critchfield’s mindset between his first and

final match, and that appeared to be the difference. Critchfield defeated Zebrauskas 15-2 to capture the fifth-place trophy. “He ended up where he probably should have been,” Snyder said. “And we are happy with that.” Snyder said his wrestlers will take some time off to rest and get their diets back to normal before focusing on offseason tournaments. As far as an encore next season for Critchfield, the sky is the limit. But this year’s state champion in the 132-pound weight class, Dylan Duncan of Montini, will be looking to repeat, and he could be standing in Critchfield’s way if both wrestlers remain in the same weight class. “It’s open, but if he is in the same weight class, he’s going to have to work on beating Dylan Duncan,” Snyder said of next year’s field. “He is going to have to put in some extra time in the offseason. That will be key.”

Calhoun girls reach final four By Kory Carpenter Jersey County Journal The Calhoun girls have lost two games this season. And the way they played against Steelville Monday night in the SuperSectionals in Salem, it looks like the Warriors will end the season with two losses. The scoreboard looked like it belonged on a football field after eight minutes of play, as Calhoun led 28-0. The second quarter was not much better for Steelville, and Calhoun took a 50-4 lead at halftime. The Warriors took their feet off the gas considerably in the second half while making plans for a weekend trip to Normal and the Class 1A Final Four. Grace Baalman led all scorers with 18 points, Emma Baalman added 15, and Kassidy Klocke chipped in eight. “Those three are definitely the main ingredients for us,” head coach Aaron Baalman said after his team’s 68-24 victory. Sydney White finished with 12

points. Calhoun lost its two games this

“If things go the way I think they will go. Calhoun will see Central a&M in the finals.”

Steve Wooley. Southwestern head coach season in November, in back-to-back games against Southwestern and Quincy Notre Dame. 27 consecutive victories later, the Warriors have amassed one of the best resumes in the state. “If things go the way I think they will go,” Southwestern head coach Steve Wooley said recently. “Calhoun will see Central A&M in the finals.” Wooley’s Southwestern team is

a Class 2A school, and split with Calhoun this season. Quincy Notre Dame is an even bigger opponent, playing in Class 3A. A Class 1A team has yet to beat the Warriors. The Carrollton Hawks came close in the regional championship, before losing 58-47. “Calhoun is going to go all the way now,” Carrollton head coach Brian Madson said at the time. “I have no doubt.” Calhoun head coach Aaron Baalman has not been as outwardly confident, at least outside the locker room. He has talked about taking it one day at a time and not looking ahead and always being focused, and all the little things coaches are supposed to say. His opponents have taken notice, though, and done plenty of talking for him. Calhoun will face Gilman Friday at 2 p.m. in Redbird Arena in Normal. The state championship is set for 2 p.m. Saturday.
