ST. CHARLES – The St. Charles Public Library is celebrating more than 40 years of stepping out and providing services beyond its traditional walls.

The library has an Outreach Services Department that makes bimonthly visits to eight local senior facilities, maintains four community book swaps and makes regular monthly deliveries to more than 20 homebound patrons, according to David Kelsey, the St. Charles outreach services librarian.

The library’s outreach services officially began Jan. 16, 1973, with a delivery to the Hotel Baker Retirement Home, according to the library’s archives. The first Special Services librarian was appointed in August 1975.

The library, located at 1 S. Sixth Ave. in St. Charles, went from having a librarian use her own vehicle to deliver materials to having a three-person Outreach Services Department with its own van. The outreach department in all serves about 300 patrons each month and circulates 2,000 library materials, Kelsey wrote in an email.

“Our motto is that we deliver!” Kelsey wrote.

Libraries mail books free of charge to homebound patrons through the U.S. Postal Service, Kelsey wrote.

Most libraries in the area offer outreach services – the Batavia, Geneva, Maple Park, Messenger (North Aurora) and Town and Country (Elburn) public libraries have some type of home delivery or use the mail service, according to their websites.

The St. Charles Public Library is unique from some of the area libraries in that it has a department devoted to outreach services, Kelsey wrote.

Dana Hintz and Lynda Spraner are the department’s two part-time assistants.

The staff fills carts with books, audiobooks and other materials and loads them onto the van using a portable lift attached to the back.

St. Charles resident Jan Metz, 76, said she is used to seeing Hintz in her apartment with one of the carts. She en-

Library outreach department celebrates 40-plus years

River project seeks public input TRI–CITIES REPUBLICAN Chronic eye-watering and irritation of the outer portion of the eyeball (cornea) may be due to inward-turning eyelashes. Abnormally positioned eyelashes can result from an eye infection, inflammation (swelling) of the eyelid, autoimmune conditions, and trauma. This misdirection of the eyelashes, a condition known as “trichiasis,” results in the errant eyelashes brushing against the eyeball. Left untreated, trichiasis may lead to corneal ulceration, which is a potentially serious concern that can lead to loss of eyesight in the affected eye. When there are multiple lashes growing toward the eye, the ophthalmologist may recommend surgery to have them removed permanently. If so, “ablation” utilizes radio frequencies or lasers to remove the offending lashes.

P.S. Some cases of trichiasis are caused by “epiblepharon,” an extra horizontal fold of skin that causes inversion of the eyelashes against the cornea.

Singer’s constituent wrote the street has a lot of traffic during her neighbor’s sales, making it hard to get out of driveways.

“It is a nuisance, for sure,” Singer said, according to the constituent’s letter. “If someone is having a sale that frequently, they should open a storefront in town or sell via eBay or Craigslist.”

Fifth Ward Alderman Tom Simonian said he supported the idea of limiting garage sales but leaving it up to residents to monitor those having too many sales.

“If we have a complaint, we can address it at that time and respond accordingly,” Simonian said.

GENEVA – Geneva residents soon may be restricted in how many garage sales they may have in a year.

Aldermen at a special Committee of the Whole meeting June 29 considered complaints about continuous sales that irritate neighbors. After a discussion of policy, aldermen asked staff to create an ordinance limiting garage sales to three a year and three days per sale.

The city currently does not have a limit on how many garage sales a resident can have in a year, aldermen said.

Aldermen said they liked

the ordinance in Arlington Heights, where neighbors report on neighbors who abuse the limit and that spurs code enforcement to step in.

The issue arose in the 4th Ward where a resident complained of a neighbor having too many sales, officials said.

“A constituent asked that I put the issue before the council,” 4th Ward Alderman Ron Singer said.

Singer would not identify the resident as he read from her letter. “She says … there is a person on my block who had an estate sale almost every weekend last year and this year has already had three, including the Geneva citywide garage sale.”

Pottawatomie Golf Course unites three generations

By CAROL HAGGAS

editorial@kcchronicle.com The family that plays together, stays together. And for three generations of Sweet family men (and a few women, too), the place that keeps them coming back for more is Pottawatomie Golf Course in St. Charles.

For Tom Sweet, his son, Tommy, and his grandson, Thomas, the nine-hole, nationally-recognized course nestled along the banks of the scenic Fox River is a home away from home.

“I started playing golf down here 56 years ago in 1959, and I’ve been playing here ever since,” said Sweet, who also works part time in

the pro shop now that he’s retired from his own business.

“I’ve played golf all over the country, and this course is as nice, if not nicer than, many of the country clubs where I’ve played.”

Sweet began playing golf as a youngster, and passed the love of the game along to

his son, Tommy, who, in turn, taught his own son, Thomas, how to play. And like their father and grandfather, both Tommy and Thomas parlayed their passion for golf into part-time employment, working with the grounds crews and in the pro shop during their breaks from school.

Working and playing at Pottawatomie is in the Sweet family blood. Sweet met his wife of 54 years, Nancy, when she was a high school student working part time at Swanson Pool.

They married and had three children; in addition to son Tom, there are daughters Patty and Julie, who also went on to work at Swanson Pool and River View Miniature Golf.

“My whole family has worked here at one time or another,” Sweet said. “And we play golf down here as a

family. My son and his son, my son-in-law and his son, my daughter Julie and I. It’s been a family thing.”

Part of what makes golf such a perfect fit for the Sweet family is the serenity of the location and the relaxed pace of the game. Sweet’s son, Tommy, travels extensively for business and grandson Thomas just graduated from high school. Their busy schedules don’t leave as much room for golf as they used to. But Pottawatomie’s short, ninehole course is something they can make room for.

“We’ll try to get a half-dozen or so games in together this summer,” Sweet said.

Golfing at Pottawatomie also is something that lets the Sweet family focus on just being together without the distractions that seem to

accompany many other family-oriented activities.

“There is no place more enjoyable than to be sitting out there on the course somewhere by the river and to really take the time to talk to the person you’re golfing with,” Sweet said. “Julie and I have probably had some of our better conversations out there on the golf course.”

Golf always has been more than just a family activity for Sweet and his children and grandchildren. It’s also been a way to develop and foster lifelong friendships.

“There’s a certain camaraderie that you develop with a group, and it deepens as you go,” Sweet said.

In fact, there is a memorial tree out on the course dedicated specifically to Sweet and a cohort of his golfing buddies who called themselves the 638 Group. The last original member of the group that was formed around 1970, Sweet and his friends played together for more than 30 years.

“We called ourselves the 638 Group because we always played at 6:38 on Saturday mornings,” Sweet said. “We looked forward to Saturday mornings because it was our time to get together with our friends. We could get in a round of golf here and still be home by 9 o’clock and have the rest of the weekend with our families.”

When the love of family and friends, sport and setting all come together – as they do for Sweet – the result is nothing less than magical.

“We enjoy golf, and we enjoy Pottawatomie,” he said.

“The course is unique; the clubhouse is unique; and it’s a good group of people down here. What more could you want out of life?”

BATAVIA – Those living near Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia might notice additional noise and traffic once construction starts on the lab’s latest experiment.

The U.S. Department of Energy held a public hearing June 24 at Fermilab so residents could review and comment on the possible environmental effects of building and operating the Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility and the associated Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment. Construction could begin as early as 2018, with the experiment starting in 2025.

The experiment will send a beam of neutrinos through the earth from Fermilab to the Sanford Underground Research Facility in Lead, South Dakota. Neutrinos are elementary particles that have no electrical charge and are the most abundant particles in the universe, according to Fermilab officials.

With the data, scientists hope to learn about the building blocks of matter and determine the exact role neutrinos play in the universe.

Peter Siebach, National Environmental Policy Act compliance officer for the Department of Energy, told those at the meeting that during construction of the experiment noise levels temporarily would increase above ambient levels at houses directly across

Kirk Road. He said blasting, which would be limited to the daytime, could result in noticeable vibration levels in nearby houses and would be monitored.

Siebach also said construction would result in a modest increase in traffic on Kirk and Butterfield Roads.

Batavia resident George Baker, who lives near Fermilab, voiced concerns at the meeting about how the blasting would impact his home’s foundation.

As part of the experiment, plans are to construct four buildings on the Fermilab site, one of which would be about 40 feet high and 160 feet long and be located near Kirk Road and Giese Road. That building would be connected via a vertical shaft to an underground hall about 200 feet below the Fermilab site.

The project also would include the construction of a 50to 60-foot-high hill about 1,000 feet from Kirk Road on the Fermilab site, as part of the facility that would create the neutrinos.

The public can comment on the project through Friday, July 10, by email at lbnf. comments@science.doe.gov or online at http://lbnf.fnal.gov/ env-assessment.html.

Batavia resident pens first novel ‘The Fifth Floor’ was published in March

feel like you wanted to present this story and show that people shouldn’t be ashamed of any trauma that they might have?

Oleszek: Yes. I think that “The Fifth Floor” is an important story because it deals with mental health issues.

Unfortunately, there is such a stigma attached to mental health issues.

BATAVIA – After being a longtime teacher in Naperville, Batavia resident Julie Oleszek resigned to pen her first novel, “The Fifth Floor,” a fictionalized version of her formative years.

“The Fifth Floor,” which revolves around 7-year-old Anna growing up in 1970s suburban Chicago, was published in March and is available at her website at www.julieoleszek.com or at retailers such as Townhouse Books, 105 North 2nd Ave., St. Charles. Oleszek will be part of the “Catch a Bunch of Authors Fair” on Sept. 12 at the Santori Public Library, 101 S. River St., Aurora.

Kane County Chronicle reporter Eric Schelkopf had the chance to talk to Oleszek about her novel.

Eric Schelkopf: I understand that “The Fifth Floor” is a fictionalized version of your youth from growing up in Woodridge.

Julie Oleszek: It is. It is a true-to-life story, but it’s fiction because it’s very embellished. And even though it’s written in the 1970s, I made it very relevant to today.

Schelkopf: What drove you to want to write this novel?

Oleszek: I originally wanted to write the book because I had suffered a childhood trauma that went undetected for many years. Basically, I felt like life was hopeless.

Anna’s story is very similar, but like I said, very embellished. She goes through a childhood trauma that many kids experience. It goes undetected, and because of that, it has repercussions.

Anna stops eating at the age of 17.

Finally, her mother steps in to try to help her and basically save her life.

Schelkopf: Do you think that your novel might help people share their problems with other people? Is that your ultimate goal?

Oleszek: My hope is that readers from all walks of life are presented with a better understanding of childhood trauma and the lasting effect it has.

“The Fifth Floor” is a fictionalized version of Batavia resident Julie Oleszek’s youth. She grew up in Woodridge.

Schelkopf: Was it an easy process in sitting down to write the book?

Oleszek: As I was writing the novel, there were many times where I was crying with the characters and laughing with the characters. When I first started writing the book, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to put it out there because of the stigma.

But I really felt that the book grew and it changed me. I started saying to myself, ‘So what that I went through this childhood trauma? It’s OK to experience different things.’

Schelkopf: So, you had an eating disorder?

Oleszek: I did not. When you are reading the book on a surface level, it does look like that Anna has an eating disorder.

But as the reader begins to get deeper into the book, they realize that it is not that at all.

It’s actually not about an eating disorder at all. It’s about this childhood trauma. With no one to talk to, she suffers internally by herself.

Schelkopf: You grew up in a large family, similar to Anna’s character in “The Fifth Floor.”

Oleszek: I did. I grew up the ninth child of 10, and in the novel, Anna is the ninth of 10 children as well.

I may have come from a large family with a lot of commotion and busy schedules, but that’s also what families have today. They could have one child, but they are all over the place. And things do get overlooked. Being a teacher of 20 years, I’ve seen that happen over and over again.

Photos provided

Schelkopf: So, you also had a childhood trauma?

Oleszek: Yes. There was a death in my family, and that was the childhood trauma. Personally, I had perceived that trauma as more than it was, more of my fault than it was, and this person dying.

Schelkopf: In writing this book, did you

Fox Valley Repertory’s ‘The Bikinis’ resurrects ’60s pop music

By TOM WITOM

planitkanenews@shawmedia.com ST. CHARLES – Theater-goers in search of lightweight summer fun might try on “The Bikinis” for size.

This breezy musical tribute, by Ray Roderick and James Hindman, features a female quartet taking a nostalgic song-and-dance trip by way of pop songs from the 1960s. “The Bikinis” falls in the same vein as “Forever Plaid,” Stuart Ross’s popular musical revue featuring close-harmony “guy groups” from the ’50s.

Staged by Fox Valley Repertory at Pheasant Run Resort, the fictional “Bikinis” has a talented cast of vocalists: Kyrie Anderson, as Barbara; Alexandra Gonzalez as Annie; Kristine Burdi as Karla; and Colette Todd as Jodi.

Kyle Donahue serves as director and choreographer.

The show’s 32 songs include the

obligatory “Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini” as well as “Chapel of Love,” “Mama Said,” “I Will Survive” and “Heat Wave,” among others. If you’re a fan of that era, chances are its music will ring a few bells.

Less thrilling, however, is the wobbly script around which these oldies

are positioned. The storyline is paper thin and the dialogue forced. Then again, with jukebox musicals such as this an intricate plot may be a bonus rather than a requirement.

Here’s the premise: a girl group calling themselves The Bikinis has come up with a local one-hit wonder during the late ’60s. Their song, “In My Bikini,” was created by Roderick and Joseph Baker.

Twenty years have passed and the middle-aged singers now temporarily regroup to raise money to help occupants at a trailer park known as Sandy Shores Mobile Home Beach Resort keep their place of residence secure in the face of mounting pressure from a condominium developer.

The reconstituted Bikinis – Barbara and childhood friends, sisters Jodie and Annie and their cousin Karla – share secrets about how they all dated the same lifeguard, why they

no longer would consider donning a bikini and how they dreamed about recording a hit song.

Things liven up late in Act I as the quartet successfully parodies a Frankie Avalon-and-Annette Funicello beach party movie and also presents a 1960s dance craze medley that included interaction between the audience and the cast during a Twist number.

In Act II, the time frame advances to the 1970s and early ’80s and the theme turns to Flower Power-fueled protest songs, the impact of Vietnam, the rise in the feminist movement and the buzz caused by disco.

Crowd-pleasers heard include “Dedicated to the One I Love,” “Simple Song of Freedom,” “Lay Down (Candles in the Rain)” and “Last Dance.”

Jeffrey Poindexter directs the music. Kimberly G. Morris designed the cast’s colorful floral dresses and beach attire.

Stomachs grumbling from a manic Monday work day, my dining companions and I headed toward Flagstone: Crafts and Cocktails in Geneva, just as some summer showers began to sprinkle.

Opening only a few hours earlier at 11 a.m., the restaurant was at a slow speed at this particular time of day.

A few diners sat with food and drinks at the bar, while a family sat with children at a table, their strollers lining the storefront outside.

The industrial atmosphere of the restaurant and bar is complemented by high ceilings, exposed ductwork and an open brick wall behind the sleek, darkly colored bar.

The walls and ceiling also were painted a dark color, with dimly-lit metal accent lights and hand-painted, ale-centered artwork popping against the monotone walls.

Including the bar, there was a vast seating area for diners that made the space feel open. And, of course, sports were playing on the various big-screen TVs.

Trip gives Cougars condensed road experience Journey by bus to Beloit takes about 90 minutes

By KEVIN DRULEY

kdruley@shawmedia.com GENEVA – Kevin Hartseil recites the route as effortlessly as a broadcaster chronicling the latest exploits of a keystone combination.

Northbound Kirk Road to westbound Lincoln Highway to northbound Randall Road to westbound Interstate 90.

Then over the Wisconsin border and into Beloit, once the Midwest League’s headquarters and long the destination of the Cougars’ lone commuter bus trip.

As long as traffic and construction cooperate, Hartseil, the Cougars’ third-year bus driver, navigates the club’s sleek Peoria Charter vessel from Fifth Third Bank Ballpark to the Snappers’ Pohlman Field in about 90 minutes.

His refrain for the upper Midwest swing mirrors that of his cleat-clad cargo, who ideally get to know many buses during their hopeful climbs to Major League Baseball.

“It’s no big deal,” Hartseil said. “It’s only an hour and a half.”

Of course, Hartseil has a bus to steer to keep him occupied. Because Cougars players and coaches don’t have that luxury, as Hartseil would call it, they pass the miles with condensed versions of usual road trip pastimes, which isn’t always as easy as it sounds.

How many commutes to Beloit does it take for the Cougars’ book club of pitchers Zac Curtis, Brad Keller, Markus Solbach and strength and conditioning coach Sean Light to charge through E.L. James’ sultry novel “50 Shades of Grey?”

Depends on who you ask.

Read: Who’ll admit that was the club’s selection overlapping May’s four-game series at Pohlman Field.

Sandy Bressner - sbressner@shawmedia.com

Kane County Cougars players board the team’s bus at Fifth Third Bank Ballpark in Geneva before a May 21 game in Beloit. The Cougars made the day trip to and from Beloit throughout their four-game series.

“We all are kind of interested in reading,” Keller said.

“We just picked a book. Someone was talking about it. It was, ‘Alright. Let’s do it.’ ” The bus also accommodates Cougars interested in electronic media. Small television screens are mounted every few rows, with various plug-in options.

“There’s movies going on.

There’s games,” first baseman Marty Herum said. “It’s busy.”

Before getting on the bus, players walk past an aesthetic exterior wrap developed by Cougars graphic designer Emmet Broderick and featuring images of fireworks, Midwest League championship trophies and logos of the Cougars and their parent club, the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Hartseil and Co. typically depart Fifth Third Bank Ballpark between 12:30 and 1 p.m. for 7 p.m. games in Beloit.

Depending on game length, the team returns to Geneva between midnight and 1 a.m., then scurries home to its host families to sleep. The Cougars visit Beloit again from Monday, Aug. 24, to Wednesday, Aug. 26.

Players leave most of their gear at Pohlman Field during the series, lugging only themselves, a meal and any entertainment options the next day.

Before you can say “pothole,” though, the bus trans-

forms into a mobile home of sorts.

“We spend a bunch of time on the bus. We’re constantly traveling, you know,” Keller said. “And then doing commuters, I mean, an hour, hour and a half every single day. We’re always together, we’re always in close proximity on the bus.

I’d say it’s pretty much like the clubhouse.”

Of course, shop talk isn’t forbidden and is especially common near the front of the bus, where manager Mark Grudzielanek often convenes with pitching coach Doug Bochtler and hitting coach Vince Harrison for impromptu meetings.

“We get a lot knocked out in those bus rides, which is really important to how the ship’s being run, you know,” Grudzielanek said. “Controlling certain things. Understanding. Nipping some things off at the bud that need to be nipped with certain individuals. Things like that. Keeping everything in-house and going about things like that, you know what I mean. So it’s good stuff.”

Prompted to recall any commuter trips from the fourplus minor league seasons that preceded his 15-year Major League career, Grudzielanek jumped the gun and offered a joke.

How about his 2003-04 stint

with the Cubs, when the club bussed together to U.S. Cellular Field for interleague games against the White Sox? Grudzielanek cited Father Time for keeping him from discussing many earlier specifics, although he assuredly traveled to Beloit and back several times in 1992, when he played shortstop for the since-relocated Rockford Expos.

For longer trips – those that would outpace even the epic, original, 238-minute running time of 1939’s “Gone With the Wind” – Grudzielanek remembers a more pensive side eventually kicking in after the inevitable fun and games.

“It’s really between the ears kind of time where you can just really meditate and think about things and understand what you did,” Grudzielanek said. “I was always running through that game previously through my head. ‘What could I do differently? What could I do here? I need to work on this.’ I was always out there to try to get better in every area, every avenue that I possibly could. And that’s what the time was for, you know.

“Yeah, I had personal time. My girlfriend, this, that, talking. But you had a lot of downtime that you can try to handle it and use it in the right way. And I thought I did a pretty good job of that.”

Last week, the Cougars completed their longest sojourn of the season, covering 837 miles during a six-game trip to Fort Wayne, Ind., and Eastlake, Ohio, of the Midwest League’s Eastern Division.

“Commuters,” as they’re colloquially known, are far more common in the league’s Western Division, in which the Cougars reside. To curtail travel, Western clubs face each Eastern counterpart for only three games per season, alternating sites each year.

A roundtrip to Beloit encompasses 150 miles, and there’s usually little novelty, some recent tweaks notwithstanding. Hartseil rerouted

the 2014 Cougars, then a Cubs affiliate, because of especially infuriating construction on I-90, taking Kirk Road south to link up with interstates 88 west and 39 north, respectively. He said the switch added an hour of travel time each way.

In May, the Cougars booked a rare overnight stay in Beloit.

That maneuver made for three commuters instead of four but also allowed Hartseil to converse with players longer.

“The camaraderie with the men and the players, that’s what I really enjoy,” Hartseil said. “Talking to the kids and finding out about them. That’s why I do it. And of course, I love baseball. Love the game, love watching baseball. … It’s what I really enjoy. It’s not a job, really. It’s enjoyable.”

Four years ago, Hartseil, 56, retired from an education and coaching career of about three decades. Rooted in central Illinois, he served as Blue Ridge athletic director and assisted on the Bradley softball staff, among other career stops.

When he pulls the bus into the Fifth Third Bank Ballpark lot in the wee hours after series finales in Beloit, his own commute hardly is over. If you thought the Cougars who reside with an Oswego host family – including Curtis, Solbach and fellow pitchers Nick Baker and Steve Hathaway – had late nights, think again.

Hartseil, who lives in Morton with his family, must return the bus to Peoria, complete the requisite paperwork, then drive his own wheels home to the self-titled “Pumpkin Capital of the World.”

So long as the Cougars’ bus hasn’t turned into a round, orange, oversized gourd by the time Hartseil arrives in Peoria, sometimes as late as 3 a.m., he completes his tasks and gets to sleep.

That, by the way, is another travel pastime, made easier if your neighbor keeps it down.

Don’t nod off for too long, though. The bus will be at the ballpark in just a few more miles.

A look at home prices in 20 cities

By MICHELLE JAMRISKO Bloomberg News

WASHINGTON – Home prices in 20 cities rose at a slower pace than projected in April, indicating the market was experiencing uneven gains as it entered the busier selling season.

The S&P/Case-Shiller index of property values increased 4.9 percent from April 2014 after climbing 5 percent in the year ended in March, the group said from New York.

The median estimate of 31 economists surveyed by Bloomberg called for a 5.5 percent advance. Nationally, prices rose 4.2 percent.

A pickup in sales as the job market improves and younger Americans start venturing out on their own means gains in home prices will probably accelerate as demand outstrips supply.

All 20 cities in index showed a year-over-year gain • HOME SALES

“There’s a need for shelter across the country and there’s very little inventory and almost no likelihood of mortgage foreclosures given the stringent underwriting standards of the past years.”

Continued from page 14 Rising residential real-estate values will, in turn, help owners rebuild equity and spur builders to take on more projects, leading to increases in spending and investment that will give the economy a boost.

“The housing sector is generally on an upswing,” said Tom Simons, an economist at Jefferies in New York, whose forecast for a 5 percent increase was among the closest in the Bloomberg survey. “The thing that has been supporting home prices for the recent part of the recovery has been low inventories, and now it seems demand is starting to pick up as well. That should help further support the case for somewhat higher prices.”

Economists’ estimates in the Bloomberg survey ranged from gains of 4.7 percent to 5.8 percent. The S&P/Case-Shiller index is based on a three-month average, which means the April figure also was influenced by transactions in March and February. Home prices in the 20city index adjusted for seasonal variations increased 0.3 percent

– Lennar Corp. Chief Executive Officer Stuart Miller

in April from the prior month, less than the Bloomberg survey median of 0.8 percent.

All 20 cities in the index showed a year-over-year gain, led by a 10.3 percent increase in Denver. Prices climbed 10 percent in San Francisco.

The price increases decelerated in 11 cities in April from the same time in 2014.

The year-over-year gauge, based on records dating back to 2001, provides better indications of trends in prices, the group has said. The panel includes Karl Case and Robert Shiller, the economists who created the index.

Measured against a month

earlier, property prices rose in 11 cities in April, according to the seasonally adjusted data.

They jumped 1 percent in Minneapolis. The biggest decrease was in Cleveland, where they fell 0.5 percent. Values were little changed in Tampa.

A dearth of supply is keeping prices in most areas rising as more Americans consider home purchases. While the number of previously owned homes for sale rose 1.8 percent in May to 2.3 million, at the current sales pace, it would take 5.1 months to sell those houses, National Association of Realtors data show.

That’s down from 5.2 months at the end of the prior month.

gence in wage growth are luring buyers to the market. Payrolls rose by 280,000 in May, the biggest increase in five months, and the unemployment rate edged up to 5.5 percent from 5.4 percent in April as more workers joined the labor force.

So far this year, job gains have averaged 217,400 a month after 259,670 in 2014.

The Labor Department is set to report June labor-market figures on July 2. Employers added 230,000 jobs in June, according to the Bloomberg survey median.

Some indicators have shown pay growth is strengthening.

Private wages, which exclude government workers, rose at the fastest year-over-year pace since 2008, according to the Labor Department’s April 30 report on employment costs.

The agency’s monthly employment report showed a more moderate 2.3 percent gain in average hourly earnings in May from a year earlier. While that was the strongest since August 2013, it’s still close to the 2 percent average since the start of the expansion.

Low inventories are keeping homebuilders such as Miami-based Lennar Corp. optimistic about the industry’s momentum.

“There’s a need for shelter across the country and there’s very little inventory and almost no likelihood of mortgage foreclosures given the stringent underwriting standards of the past years,” Chief Executive Officer Stuart Miller said in a June 24 earnings call. “This year’s spring selling season confirms that the market is continuing to improve at a very consistent pace.”

Existing-home sales rose in May to a 5.35 million annualized rate, the highest level since November 2009, the National Association of Realtors reported last week. The share of first-time buyers matched the highest level since September 2012.

While housing starts declined 11.1 percent in May to a 1.04 million annualized rate, that followed a revised 1.17 million pace in April to cap the best back-to-back readings since late 2007, according to Commerce Department figures. Permits for future projects rose to the highest level in almost eight years.

Trying to conserve water?

Water your yard only where it’s needed so it doesn’t go to waste.

When you use a lawn sprinkler, much of the spray misses your flowers and vegetables and ends up on the grass, the sidewalk or the neighbor’s yard.

Make certain the water gets to the roots of your plants via a drip-irrigation system like Raindrip.

Raindrip irrigation uses 70 percent less water than underground sprinklers and frees the user from constantly hauling around hoses because the system stays in your garden all summer long.

Ensuring year-round comfort can be challenging if the new space is not connected to a ducted heating system.

A Trane Ductless Mini-Split Heat Pump is an easy, energy efficient solution for areas where installing ductwork may be impractical or too expensive.

The compact indoor unit can be mounted on a wall or ceiling, and connects to an outdoor compressor.

Entrances and exits: Whether you’re going up or down with a renovation, it will require using the stairs. This is a good to time make repairs or modifications to the current stairway to ensure safe and easy access.

Also be sure to check out your local building codes as to the number of windows and fire exits that are required and plan accordingly. – Brandpoint

When you’re ready to stage your home for potential buyers, it’s important to make your rooms look their best.

That means cutting the clutter and rearranging furniture to make the most of your space.

If you have big, bulky furniture that overpowers the room – like, say, an oversized sofa – consider taking a piece out or finding pieces that better fit the room’s scale.

Clear off your countertops and tables, save for a few small accent pieces.
