CARPET, UPHOLSTERY, & AIR DUCT CLEANING

South Suburban College (SSC) was recently recognized by The Conservation Foundation, one of the region’s oldest and largest not-for-profit land and watershed conservation organizations dedicated to preserving and restoring open space, protecting rivers and watersheds, and promoting stewardship of the environment of northeastern Illinois. The acknowledgement came due in part to the college’s longstanding rain garden, bird feeder, community garden, and being home to indigenous trees planted throughout campus for the last 30 years. These plantings are already part of an annual gathering which serves to additionally maintain certification with the National Arbor Day Foundation. “Students have helped a lot with planting of trees, campus cleanup, and trying to attract wildlife,” said Environmental Science and Biology Instructor, Eric Myers, Ph.D., who applied for the recognition earlier in the year as head of the SSC Sustainability Committee. After the application was submitted, representatives from The Conservation Foundation evaluated the campus grounds on two separate occasions before the distinction was made official. “I wanted the organization to be aware of our campus initiatives so we can get some recognition for the

sustainable work that’s been going on here long before I arrived,” stated Myers. Official recognition signage can be found at the college’s rain garden, which is often inhabited by butterflies, dragonflies and bees flying throughout the area. “A lot of insects and birds in North America are in decline,” Myers added, “and that’s mostly because of a lack of habitat.” Due to the team effort of the SSC community, the college is now home to many sand pipers, blue wing teals, American toads and green frogs. Myers concluded, “I hope that local residents will follow in SSC’s footsteps, taking the opportunity to grow native plants, using a minimal amount of chemicals, and reusing rain water on their home properties when possible.” Details about SSC’s recognition by The Conservation Foundation and the Sustainability Committee can be directed to Eric Myers, Ph.D. at (708) 596-2000, ext. 2318 or via email at emyers@ssc.edu. The community at large is welcome to visit the SSC rain garden, located on the southern side of the Physical Fitness and Athletic Center on the South Suburban College Main Campus, located at 15800 S. State St. South Holland, IL.

Mail Ballot Applications Now Available For Sub. Cook Co. Voters For November Gubernatorial Election

Suburban Cook County voters may now apply for their Mail Ballots in the November 8, 2022, Gubernatorial Election through the Cook County Clerk’s Office website, according to the Office of Clerk Karen A. Yarbrough. Any registered suburban Cook County voter may request a Mail Ballot using the online application at cookcountyclerk.com/ VoteByMail. Ballots will be mailed to those who have applied in September - in advance of the November 8 election. “Voting By Mail has become increasingly popular in recent years and it’s clear that voters enjoy the simple and convenient option of casting their ballot from the comfort of their own home,” Yarbrough said. “What makes the process even more accessible is the ability to request your ballot online. Voters can take their time and research candidates and referenda before casting their vote for our democracy.” Voters may also download, print, and sign a paper application to mail into the Clerk’s Office to request a Mail Ballot. The completed Mail Ballot Application should be sent to: Cook County Clerk’s Office, Mail Voting Unit, 69 W. Washington St., Suite 500, Chicago, IL 60602. The deadline to apply for a Mail Ballot is November 3. Ballots

must be postmarked no later than Election Day, November 8, and be received at the Cook County Clerk’s office within 14 days of Election Day. The Mail Ballot Application can be completed on computers, smartphones, or tablets. Simply visit cookcountyclerk.com/ VoteByMail from an internet-connected device. To complete an online Mail Ballot Application, a voter will need: • Email address. (An email will be sent to confirm the application before processing can be completed.) • Illinois driver’s license or state IDnumber. • Last four digits of the voter’s SSN • Address where the ballot should be mailed. While applications will be accepted online, completed ballots must be returned via U.S. mail -- or dropped off at Election Drop Box locations at suburban Early Voting sites, which open at more than 50 sites across the county on October 24. Suburban Cook County voters can always check their voter registration and Mail Ballot status as well as other voter information at cookcountyclerk.com/VoterInfo. Questions can be directed to 312.603.0946 or mail.voting@ cookcountyil.gov.
