Lauren Dvorak, 11, of Riverside shakes off the dirt while helping plant 17 new black willow trees Friday in Swan Pond in Riverside for Arbor Day.
The trees in Riverside’s Swan Pond have had it rough lately. Several large ones are infested with the emerald ash borer and are scheduled to be cut down, while ice flows from the Des Plaines River this winter carved up trees and left a pile of debris in the river’s cold wake. But in an Arbor Day celebration Friday, new life could be found at the park. Riverside residents teamed with Village Forester Michael Collins to plant 17 young black willow trees in the park that sunny afternoon. Purchased with a donation by Riveside resident Don Spatny, the trees will continue to grow at the park long into the future. According to Collins, the trees will reach full maturity in about 50 years, growing to be between 50- and 80-feet-tall. “They grow really fast,” Collins said. “That’s one reason we selected them.” Spatny, who came by for

We’re the battling boys of Benghazi No fame, no glory, no paparazzi Just a fiery death in a blazing hell Defending our country we loved so well. It wasn’t our job, but we answered the call. Fought to the Consulate and scaled the wall. We pulled twenty Countrymen from the jaws of fate. Led them to safety, and stood at the gate. Just the two of us, and foes by the score. But we stood fast to bar the door. Three calls for reinforcement, but all were denied. So we fought, and we fought, and we fought til we died. We gave our all for our Uncle Sam, But some of our leaders didn’t give a damn. Just two dead SEALS (Glen Doherty & Ty Woods) who carried the load No thanks to us……… we were just “Bumps In The Road”

Morton High School recognized for efforts to challenge students I wanted to take a moment to share some very good news Morton East High School has ranked among the top most challenging high schools in the nation, according to the Washington Post. This publication uses various criteria to complete the rankings by studying the achievement of the students from each high school being ranked. Of 27,000 High Schools across COMMUNITY the nation, the Washington VOICE Post ranked Morton East at Michael number 1,105 and number 33 Kuzniewski out of 720 high schools in Illinois on its list. The Washington Post calculates the Challenge Index by dividing the number of advanced placement tests taken by the number of graduating seniors. The 2014 ranking is based on results from the 20122013 school year. On this year’s Challenge Index, Morton East scored a 2.056, a record for the school district. Only 70 high schools in the Illinois made the list. Most high schools only let top students to take the courses and encourage only the best students to take the tests. At Morton, we have opened the courses to everyone and require all students who participate in the course to take the tests. We continue to provide this access and encouragement for all students to access these more rigorous courses. We believe that AP courses are important because they give average students a chance to experience the trauma of heavy college reading lists and long, analytical college examinations. Research has found even low-performing students who got only a 2 on an AP test did significantly better in college than similar students who did not take AP. The goal at Morton is for all students to learn and that begins by providing equal access to more rigorous coursework, such as AP.

Local, state and federal governments increase taxes to subsidize extended welfare and unemployment benefits. Why isn’t there a program like what President Franklin Roosevelt instituted? The W.P.A. put people back to work instead of the government paying more for people who don’t work. Numerous jobs could be created to give individuals and our government the pride of contributing versus collecting more and more from those who do work. America should stop playing Daddy Warbucks to those throughout the world that may be in need. Doesn’t our country deserve the same respect that we tried to gain throughout the world within the United States? Thank you. I appreciate it. Keep up the good work.
Glen Ellyn should better control spending
The village of Glen Ellyn announced there will be at $1.4 million shortfall in its budget. In the same breath, it approved the hiring of consultants to mock up new signage. With a deficit budget, the board decided to move forward with more spending. It’s always more surveys, more studies, more consulting fees on frivolous ideas with Glen Ellyn. Why do we bother

So long, Kewpies
So long, Kewpies, from a customer. Kewpies is out of business. I was there in January, and I tried to go there in February. I had training to be an election judge official and wanted to get dinner there in February and saw a sign on the door saying “we’re taking a break for awhile.” The next month I saw a sign on the door that said “taking a break.” This month, I looked in the window and saw the counter torn apart and heard from a customer Thursday, April 24, that Kewpies is out of business. Congratulations on all the years, Kewpies. We in Brookfield will miss you.

This is to the village of Brookfield. We have to put up with all the train dogging traffic. That includes nonstop speeders, loud bass music, motorcycles, and now, so many potholes that the pavement is just thrown in. It’s too much. Our streets rarely get cleaned, so those who live there have the labor of sweeping or blowing pavement we don’t want or need in our driveways. How about making Blanchard not a one way street or replace our street and clean it? Police our street. People do not stop at the stop signs.

Continued from page 11 Stormwater fee charges church-goers twice
In response to the April 19 Sound off regarding my Sound Off comment published in the April 9 Suburban Life: I appreciate the reader letting me have the right to disagree with the Village Council decision to require churches to pay the stormwater fee. I’m not suggesting anything about the council members faith. I’m just stating the facts – the council’s decision to tax houses of worship will “penalize” people who practice their faith. They will be charged the fee/tax twice – once for their own home and once for their place of worship. Charging church-going village residents twice doesn’t seem fair to me. We can let the voters draw their own conclusions during the next election.
According to the Suburban Life, if the Downers Grove Village Council approves the new backyard chickens ordinance, the new setback for chicken coops will only be 7 feet from property lines instead of the current 50-foot requirement. All neighbors would also have to give an OK and the $84 dollar permit would last five years before all neighbors would have to consent again. I feel few neighbors want to disagree, regardless of their desire for farm animals next door. The winners here will be foxes, raccoons and fence contractors, once chickens can be kept in virtually any neighborhood in the village. Expect that lots of high fences will be built and tight-lipped neighbors and Realtors will be torn between full disclosure and mums the word.

CLEOPATRA VACHULCIK George worked as an engineer for Western Electric for 42 years, retiring in 1983. He received multiple patents for his design work during his career. The couple had much in common, and yet they were distinctly individual. They had two children, Donald and Janet (Tarek Husayni). They shared the love of eight grandchildren, Deanna, Lena, Jad, Maya, and Ramsey Husayni, and April, Helen and Hannah Novak. They both loved the outdoors. In their younger years, they enjoyed backwoods canoeing and camping in the northern United States and Canada. In later years, they spent their summers in a small cabin on Razorback Lake, in the north woods of Sayner, Wisconsin. LaVergne also enjoyed safaris she had taken to Africa, and decorated several walls in her Riverside, Illinois home with African memorabilia. LaVergne loved the simple life, eschewing modern technology for the art of letter-writing. She had long-time pen pals from different areas of the United States. George loved to invent things. His cabin at Razorback Lake, in Sayner, Wisconsin, was a testament to his creativity. He had a love for knowledge, and embraced technology, especially that which made it possible for him to stay in touch with his grand-children. George had four siblings, all of whom, along with their spouses, preceded him in death: Ella (Edward), Edwin (Ruth), Sylvia (James Kott), and Mildred (Harry Kopack). LaVergne leaves behind one sister, Gloria (the late Ed McCabe). George and LaVergne were also the fond uncle and aunt of many. A memorial service for George and LaVergne Novak will be scheduled for this summer. Please contact the family for information.

NORMAN BERTRAM VAN KOUGHNETT Norman Van Koughnett, formerly of La Grange, died peacefully on April 3, 2014, in Plainfield, IL. Born in Detroit in 1928, he graduated from the University of Illinois in 1950, where he met the love of his life and future wife Jean Louise Prather. He was head of the art department at Lyons Township High School before opening the Five Arts Gallery in Hinsdale, which he later turned into a picture framing business called the Framemakers. Norm is survived by his wife of 66 years, Jean; sisters Rosalie Blackett, Gladwin, MI; Pat Hall, Royal Oak, MI; and six children: Leslie Sue Rindler (Michael), Southwest Harbor, ME; Scott Van Koughnett, Minneapolis; Dirk Van Koughnett (Kathy Erwin), Chicago; Amy Szwaya (Robert), Round Lake, IL; Lida Chikos (James), Phoenix, AZ; and Hale Van Koughnett (Diane), Quebec City, Canada; and 15 grandchildren.

A private service will be held this summer at the Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery in Elwood, IL.

Hookah Buzz owner John Dasoqi relaxes in the lounge-inspired setting for his new hookah bar in Berwyn’s Depot District.
New Hookah Buzz blows into Berwyn By JOE SINOPOLI jsinopoli@shawmedia.com
Where: 6912 Windsor Ave., Berwyn When: 6 p.m. to 1 a.m. Sunday through Thursday; 6 p.m. to 3 a.m. Friday and Saturday Cost: $24 a person bowl, which is then covered in foil. Holes are pierced in the foil and a charcoal briquette, the same that are used in an incense burner, is placed on the foil. By puffing on the mouthpiece, the heat is drawn into the tobacco. There are big-screen televisions playing sports for sports fans and Wi-Fi for those who are not. The strongest thing you can drink here is coffee, tea juice, soft drinks and water. It feels like a bar without liquor. And like a bar, its a place to meet with friends, relax or do business. For those who get blown away with the experience, Hookah Buzz sells hookahs, all the accessories and a huge variety of the fruit and floral-flavored Arabic tobacco that comes from California. Quality cigars also are available. A hookah, a couple of tins of tobacco and the charcoal can

BERWYN – Picture a dark cafe setting with men wearing keffiyas quietly smoking hookah pipes, playing backgammon and sipping sweet tea. Now, get that image completely out of your mind and say hello to Hookah Buzz, Berwyn’s oneand-only hookah bar. Located at the former Riddle’s Comedy Club site at 6912 W. Windsor Ave., city officials joined owner John Dasoqi and staff members to celebrate the grand opening with a ribbon cutting ceremony Thursday. There is nothing inside Hookah Buzz that suggests a corny backscape for One Thousand and One Nights. If anything, the slick, modern decor could best be described as early Las Vegas Rat Pack, with Frank Sinatra and his cohorts lounging comfortably in low-to-the-ground sofas and stuffed chairs, sitting around a coffee table – only here, they would all be puffing on a lead from a hookah pipe. It works like this: You come in, pay a $24 entrance fee, find a comfortable place to park yourself and Hookah Buzz staff sets you up with a hookah pipe and tobacco for the night. The tobacco is packed in a clay

be purchased for between $100 and $120. The price goes up depending on the size and how elaborate the hookah is. If you have a stereotypical image in mind of a hookah bar, John Dasoqi will burst your bubble. This isn’t Rick’s Cafe Americain from the film “Casablanca,” even though Dasoqi easily could be the character played by Bogart. Dasoqi has Palestinian roots, and he remembers his grandparents taking part in hookah. But, Dasoqi doesn’t believe the connection to his business and his heritage are inextricable. “To me, hookah is just an added something,” he said. “It’s a social event more than anything else.” A structural engineer by profession, Dasoqi said he has tried to make his business inviting to all kinds. He opened the first Hookah Buzz in Westmont about three years ago. “Do you make it a Middle

East theme or do you make it cutting edge?” Dasoqi asked. “Eighty to 90 percent of my customers are not Arabic.” Staff member Kayla Schlanderer said one feature that separates Hookah Buzz from other hookah lounges is the fact the lounge is equipped with a strong ventilation system that pulls expelled smoke out of the building, keeping the air fresher, as opposed to other lounges where the air is merely filtered. She said there is huge diversity in the customers that come in as well. “From ‘I’m 18 and I can smoke now’ to men who have been smoking for a long time, to girls who come in and play Yahtzee to teachers who come in and grade homework. It’s a lounge where everyone is accepted,” Schlanderer said. Dasoqi said Berwyn was not chosen randomly as a location to open his second lounge. “I came here to build something that would actually work, to not only concentrate on Berwyn residents but to bring in business from all over,” he said.

Restaurant reviews
Adventure beckons at HB Jones in Elmhurst ELMHURST – As I ap proached HB Jones, I only had one goal in mind: to climb Mount Everest. Let me explain. My research into the Elm hurst restaurant called HB Jones, aka Hamburger Jones, started last month. Normally, I rarely research an unfamil iar restaurant beforehand, other than to see if there’s a dress code, but the stories surrounding HB Jones and its menu are as entertaining as the eatery itself. A backstory has been cre ated around the adventures of fictional character Horatio B. Jones. One tale has him de scending Mount Everest until his expedition is snowed in, and then credits his “unyield ing hunger for his favorite food” for inspiring his trek to safety. Back at base camp, he was rewarded with a burger of “Everest proportions.” For my adventure, I checked the online menu and went to the burger section where I saw the “Jones Climbs Everest” burger – three 10ounce patties, cheeses and an array of toppings, accompanied by fries. This was the burger waiting for Jones after he returned, and if I finished one, I would get my name on the wall and a Tshirt. At that moment, it became my goal to consume that burg er and make the metaphorical climb. As I walked in with hunger on my side, the first thing I noticed was the atypical set ting. The restaurant features a greenhousestyle section, where light floods through walls of windows to turn the expansive dining area into a creatively inviting space. The restaurant is replete with big screen TVs and colorful decor touches. As staff escorted us to a table, I started having second thoughts about my contem plated burger challenge, when I saw the copious amounts of food others were enjoying. It wasn’t just the burgers, but the sandwiches, too, that

More than 20 sauces provide tantalizing options to shake up flavor profiles. Beyond meatdominated dishes including ribs, the restaurant has a variety of choices, such as a salad bar, complemented by an array of craft beer and draft op tions. The connecting pub
room whips up cocktails and milkshakes. One almost gave me brain freeze, because I couldn’t put down the rich vanilla concoction. After the last slurp, I knew I wouldn’t make the summit of Everest on this visit – mostly because I couldn’t pass up an appetizer and shake. For add ed decadence, the menu also highlights shakes fortified with rum.
To see more photos from HB Jones, find this story online at PlanitLife.com/mysterydiner I started with the zesty chicken strip appetizer, and then ordered the “Country Road to a Coronary” burger, a tasty melding of melted ched dar and juicy beef amped up by the creamy yolk of a sunny sideup egg. I couldn’t resist picking mac and cheese as a satisfying side dish, which helped push the summit just out of reach.
Meanwhile, my mom worked on her British burger, named for crisscrossed bacon strips meant to resemble the Union Jack flag, and com mented that the meat was cooked perfectly with just the right amount of bacon. We fin ished off the meal with a piece of killer chocolate cake. The enthusiastic friendli ness of the staff and the warm atmosphere make it a fun destination. Not only do I suggest you check out HB Jones for the addictive comfort food, I vow to return by this summer to try for the Everest burger, and claim that Tshirt and my name on the wall as “Mr. E. Dyner” with all the glory that goes with it. I could also go for another milkshake.

Riverside Brookfield pitcher Will Kincanon delivers during an April 19 home game against Morton. Kincanon has been the hard-luck loser as the Bulldogs have struggled to score in conference games.
BROOKFIELD – High school sports are supposed to be fun. Despite a winning record, that fact seems to be escaping Riverside Brookfield’s baseball team. The Bulldogs lost two out of three games to Ridgewood last week, dropping their second series and falling to 2-4 in the Metro Suburban Conference. RB started the next MSC series Tuesday against Timothy Christian. RB was 10-7 overall entering Tuesday’s game, but the mood about the team is drastically different than a year ago. “We’re just not having fun,” RB coach Dallas Till said. “It’s just a whole different atmosphere and environment. I told them I’ve coached teams that were 3-24 in basketball before, and they were at least having more fun than we’re having. We’re 107, that’s not miserable. We shouldn’t be miserable out here.” While Till will search for a way to liven up his team, senior Will Kincanon will try to rediscover his form of the past two seasons. The Middle Tennessee State commit took the loss in Thursday’s series finale, a 4-1 defeat in which the Bulldogs managed just three hits. Despite striking out eight and walking just one, Kincanon shockingly fell to 0-2 in MSC starts. “It was definitely my worst start,” Kincanon said. “I just got to be better. I got to be a senior. I got to lead. Just like sophomore year and junior year.” Kincanon still allowed just three earned runs in the loss against Ridgewood and
Riverside Brookfield vs. Ridgewood GAME 1: BULLDOGS WON 5-1 • Connor Berek: 6.1 IP, 1 R, 9 K, 2 BB, 6 H • Jimmy Doherty: 3 hits • Kevin Fitzgerald: 2 hits GAME 2: BULLDOGS LOST 3-2 (9 INNINGS) • Nico Ranieri: 6 IP, 2 R GAME 3: BULLDOGS LOST 4-1 • Will Kincanon: 7 IP, 3 ER, 8 K, 1 BB
is pitching well. Maybe he’s not as dominant as he would expect of himself, but pitching hasn’t been the problem for RB so far. The Bulldogs have allowed just 17 runs in six conference games. Junior Connor Berek has both MSC wins on the mound. He has given up one run in each of his two starts. In the second game against Ridgewood, Nico Ranieri gave up two runs in six innings, but RB lost 3-2 in nine innings and had just four hits. “Our pitching has actually been pretty good, but the team feels totally different because we aren’t winning games,” Kincanon said. “Last year, we were winning and everything was great. Right now, we’re just not playing well.” There is a chance the Bulldogs may not defend their MSC title from a year ago, but there is plenty of time to get the bats going and gear up for a postseason run. “Hitting is contagious, and we’re not putting anything together,” Till said. “I’m struggling to find an answer for why we are struggling.”

going to be a good player for us on the mound and in the field and at the plate. He’s done that so far. He’s definitely well deserved in the three spot.” Bossard hasn’t felt the pressure of hitting in the middle
of the order since he’s used to that from playing with his travel team. He felt playing for the Roadrunners was worth making the trek from Lemont, following in the footsteps of his sister who also went to Nazareth.
“This baseball program is just amazing,” Bossard said. “I love the coaching staff. Coach Milano and all of the coaches never yell at you. They’re really cool about things and that’s why I love playing here.”
New rules won’t heavily impact area football teams By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com
When the Illinois High School Association introduced changes to preseason football practice in May of 2013 in hopes of making the sport safer, some local coaches predicted that was just the beginning. Turns out they were right. Last week, the IHSA announced that a by-law which eliminates full pads and full contact (full contact is defined as football drills or game situations where live action occurs) during the 25 days of summer camp passed by a 170-87 vote by principals and athletic di-
rectors from across the state. Practices with helmets and shoulders pad also will be limited to 14 hours per week and a maximum of 15 out of the 25 days. “We believe this revision minimizes risk to football student-athletes, while allowing for the teaching of appropriate fundamentals,” IHSA executive director Marty Hickman said on the IHSA website. “This is another important step in making high school football as safe as possible, while putting all of our schools on an even playing field regarding football activities during the summer.” Glenbard South coach Jere-
my Cordell was part of a committee that submitted a counter proposal to the IHSA. “Our proposal was let’s restrict the number of days you can be in pads,” said Cordell, who added the changes won’t really affect the Raiders since his teams only went in full pads for three days in recent years. “I do think it’s a good move to try to keep things safe. But I think they need to be a little more conscious of the fact, maybe put a five day cap on it or something like that. “The analogy we used was driving a car. If you don’t drive a car until two weeks before the first test, that’s not a lot of
practice. Now the first time in full pads is not until August.” Nazareth coach Tim Racki also has had his teams use full pads during summer but only in two live scrimmages they set up. He said the shift simply makes him and his coaching staff be a little more creative with different drills to replace those two scrimmages. “I always thought it was safer to have all their pads on because maybe twice we have live contact during the summer,” Racki said. “It’s not going to change what we do that much. The fact that there’s 10 days less in shells, we’re just going to have to get creative as
far as what we can do. It’s not like my plans came crashing down or completely alter the way we do things. I’m on board with it. I get what they’re trying to do.” Not having to gear up for summer practice is probably something the players can enjoy. “The kids not being in full pads, I would think overall they would be happy that they can be in shorts in the summer,” Racki said. “You don’t want to lose anybody [to injury] in the summer, you have to be smart.”

rewarded the decision. A recent slump has seen his batting average dip just below .300 but after Saturday’s doubleheader against St. Viator he had 11 RBIs and 19 runs scored in 19 games. Before the season, Naz coach Lee Milano hyped Bossard as possibly the best player in the state in the Class of 2016. Despite playing a big role on the team as the only sophomore starter, Bossard has focused on staying humble. “I know some other sophomores start on varsity and I hear stories how some of them are cocky and I don’t want to be one of those kids,” Bossard said. “I’m more of a low key kid. I know my role and I know how to keep doing my job for this team.” That attitude has helped him quickly earn the respect of his teammates. “Brandon has done an excellent job,” Bartels said. “We knew coming in that he was

LA GRANGE PARK – Jake Bartels and Brandon Bossard represent two different sides of the scale for Nazareth baseball. Bartels is a senior in his fourth year on varsity who plays first base, pitches and bats clean up for the Roadrunners. Bossard is an up and coming sophomore who plays third, pitches and bats in the No. 3 hole for Nazareth. The Roadrunners finished the weekend with a 15-4 record and both players have been crucial to the strong start. “I think coming in we had big expectations for ourselves,” Bartels said. “I definitely think we’re right where we want to be. We’re starting to peak a little bit offensively.” Bartels, who also was a quarterback on the football team, has Division I baseball offers, Cincinnati among them, and is hoping to make his decision soon. He finished the weekend hitting .393. While Bartels is finishing his recruitment and his high school career, Bossard is just getting started. The sophomore infielder was on the varsity team last year, but mostly pitched. This season, he is a part of the lineup and making an impact right away. The Nazareth coaching staff put him right into the No. 3 hole in the lineup and Bossard has

Florence Nightingale was born May 12, 1820, in Florence, Italy, and was named for the city in which she was born. Her parents were from England, and they were on a tour of Europe when Florence was born. Florence was expected to follow the path of other young, wealthy English women and marry, have children, and focus on a home life and a social life. But Florence was extremely bright and had a strong passion for helping others. She decided the best way she could do that would to be a nurse. In 1851, her dream was achieved, and she went off to nursing school in Germany. When the Crimean War broke out, Nightingale heard about the horrible, unsanitary conditions of the hospitals on the front, and of all the wounded and sick soldiers who were in desperate need of better medical care. When she was offered a position as a nurse at Scutari, a military hospital in Turkey, she set off to help.
CC • Wednesday, April 30, 2014 • mysuburbanlife.com • Suburban Life
Florence Nightingale While Nightingale was at Scutari, she organized the hospital to ensure better care for the soldiers. She kept detailed records and statistics, and she discovered that the cleaner and more sanitized the conditions of the hospital were, the more people lived. She knew she had discovered something that could change hospitals and health care for the better. When she returned home to England, she helped open a professional school of nursing for women, where a new generation of nurses were trained in her own theories of health care, sanitation and nursing. Her inluence started to spread, as nurses trained in her tradition were practicing her theories and training other nurses. Nightingale continued to write to spread her ideas, and she died after a long life at the age of 90. To this day, Nightingale is remembered as a reformer and nursing pioneer. — Anne Raih, MCN

food for thought
Prep meals for more nutrients Want to obtain the most nutrition out of your meals? Incorporate fresh ingredients and pay attention to how they are prepped. A variety of cooking techniques can make certain foods are more flavorful while maintaining high nutritional levels. “To boost the flavor and nutritional value in our meals, we are constantly on the lookout for the freshest foods. our go-to ingredients are wholesome foods like fresh vegetables and lean proteins,” say registered dietitians Lyssie Lakatos and Tammy Lakatos Shames of The Nutrition Twins. here are a few simple tips from Lyssie Lakatos and Tammy Lakatos Shames. Keep the golden nugget: Yellow is the new black when it comes to the egg. The majority of vitamins and nutrients of an egg are found in the yolk. keep in mind that some eggs contain more nutrients than others, and when it comes to taste, there’s nothing like the flavor of freshness. Goodbye to boiling, hello to steaming: Boiling your vegetables is a surefire way to lose nutrients. The water soluble vitamins like vitamin C and folate will leach into the water instead of going into your body. If eating raw vegetables isn’t for you, try steaming them to retain nutrients. By steaming, you’ll also get tender, crispy and flavorful veggies. Keep the peel: The skin of fruits and vegetables like apples, potatoes and cucumbers is packed with nutrients and fiber. By peeling the skins of these fruits and vegetables, you are also peeling away valuable nutrients. Some foods, such as potatoes, provide even more fiber in their skin than in the whole item. And, when it comes to flavor, the crispy skins are often the best part.

State of Illinois Paratransit Vehicle Grant for western, southwestern suburbs of Cook & DuPage Counties, Illinois Notice is hereby given that a public hearing will be held by: United Cerebral Palsy Seguin of Greater Chicago
On: May 16, 2013 Where: UCP Seguin Carr Center, 3100 S. Central Avenue, Cicero, Illinois
At: 10:00 am In: 2nd fl. Arts Enrichment Center
I. For the purpose of considering a project for which financial assistance is being sought from the Illinois Department of Transportation, pursuant to the Illinois Department of Transportation's general authority to make such Grants, and which is generally described as follows: A. Description of Project (Brief Description of the Service to be provided, including the types, capacities and budgeted costs of vehicles requested). The goal of UCP Seguin's Persons with Disabilities Transportation Project is to provide individuals with developmental disabilities served by UCP Seguin with safe and reliable transportation adapted to their special needs. These individuals need transportation to medical facilities, job sites, educational settings, stores, and social and recreational venues in the Chicagoland area. UCP Seguin seeks a total of four minivans from the Illinois Department of Transportation's (IDOT) Vehicle Procurement Capital Assistance Program. UCP Seguin requests the replacement of two of its oldest paratransit vehicles, due to excessive mileage and increasing need for repair, and requests two new paratransit minivans to address expansion of services to residents with disabilities at two new group homes. Each van is equipped for six passengers and has a projected cost of $41,000 per vehicle. This project will be included in a Consolidated Vehicle Procurement Program undertaken by the State of Illinois on behalf of Seguin Services, Inc., with State and Federal Funds. B. Relocation Relocation Assistance will not be required. C. Environment This project is being implemented to minimize environmental impact. D. Comprehensive Planning This project is in conformance with comprehensive transportation planning in the area. E. Elderly and Disabled All new equipment included in this project will meet ADA accessibility rules for the elderly and persons with disabilities. II. At the hearing the UCP Seguin will afford an opportunity for interested persons or agencies to be heard with respect to the social, economic and environmental aspects of the project. Interested persons may submit orally or in writing, evidence and recommendations with respect to said project. III. A copy of the application for a state grant for the proposed project for the intended service area will be made available for public inspection at United Cerebral Palsy Seguin of Greater Chicago, 3100 S. Central Avenue, Cicero, IL 60804. Jim Haptonstahl, Executive Vice President 3100 S. Central Avenue, Cicero, IL 60804 708-222-4250 April 30, 2014
