By DAN WAITT dwaitt@shawmedia.com A proposal to build a senior housing complex in Yorkville was delayed Tuesday to give aldermen time to review a legal objection to the project filed by neighboring property owners.

Kelly Helland, an attorney representing six property owners to the east of the proposed project, presented the objection to the City Council before the meeting. Mayor Gary Golinski said a number of aldermen requested time to review the materials and bring the matter back for discussion and possible action Feb. 23.

The council is considering a plan for a four-story independent senior housing project at Freemont and Walnut streets.

The project would require a zoning change in the neighborhood.

“While my clients are not necessarily opposed to the construction of a senior apartment complex on the property directly west of their homes, or the development of the subject property with a two-story structure, my clients are adamantly opposed and object to the requested rezoning and variance seeking to increase the density from eight (8) dwelling units per acre to twenty -four (24) dwelling units per acre and the construction of the proposed four-story facility,” Helland wrote in her filing.

Helland compared the proposed building to the only other four-story structure in Yorkville, the Hampton Inn. She called the proposal “too intense, too big and the petitioner is essentially trying to fit a square peg into a round hole.”

Jeffrey Crane, one of the partners in the development, said Tuesday the firm has altered its plan to reduce the number of units from 75 to 65, and has shortened the length of one of the sections of the building to allow for a larger green space on the property. In addition, with the structure moving farther to the west side of the parcel, the plan would create more than one acre of open space east of the building, he said.

GC Housing Development Company initially proposed a 75-unit senior living independent facility on a 3.12-acre parcel at the northeast corner of Walnut and Freemont streets. While the area is near shopping, townhouses and apartments and is just north of St. Patrick’s Catholic Church, it also borders on single-family housing with lots of about one acre.

Crane said the firm has worked closely with the city to change the plan to accommodate concerns of the neighbors by reducing the density, increasing the buffer zones and changing the traffic pattern into the development.

Developers looked at options for re-

ducing the size of the building, including moving the parking garage from the ground level to outside, Crane said.

They decided to provide the safety and security of indoor parking and preserve the green space outside. Excavating at the site for the parking area likely would have raised issues with compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, he added. He said the best solution was to trim the number of units to 65 and shorten one of the legs of the building.

Crane added that the developers are seeking tax credits that would benefit the construction of the project. The Yorkville site is one of 11 projects competing for the tax credits, and is the only one on the list in Kendall County.

Crane said the company plans to make a long-term investment in Yorkville.

“We are not merchant builders. We are long-term holders of real estate,” he said.

Golinski supports the project, which he says would offer a needed form of housing to the city. He has told fellow council members that he believes this is not only a good opportunity to provide a housing option for seniors, but a moral issue as well. The mayor said he is concerned that increasingly seniors are being forced to retire elsewhere as they cannot afford to age in place.

City documents on Tuesday included a proposal for a rental assistance program that would apply to four, one-bedroom units within the apartment complex for residents meeting income guidelines that would help improve the chances that the units would be available to Yorkville residents.

Council members two weeks ago appeared to be split on the GC proposal, with most saying that while they agreed senior housing is needed, this might not be the best site for this project.

As in at least three previous public meetings, residents had an opportunity to share their views on the issue.

“I ask you to vote with your heart,” said Karylin Clevenger, information and assistance specialist for Senior Services Associates, who encouraged the council to support the project. “The longer we wait, the longer the need goes on.”

Walnut Street resident Scott Flynn, who is among Helland’s clients filing the objection, said the neighbors are not opposed to senior housing, just in this particular location. He asked the council about the precedent that changing an R-1 residential zoning to an R-4 zoning classification might set in other parts of the city. “Does that mean you are open to that at any given time?” he asked.

“Plan for senior housing, but put it in the right spot. This is not,” he said.

device ban?

Yorkville School Board receives recommendation

By KATHY FARREN news@kendallcountynow.com

Yorkville High School administrators are recommending that students be allowed to access their phones and other personal technology devices at times during the school day.

Assistant Principal Adam West told the Board of Education on Monday that the change from the present ban was suggested after meetings with students and teachers at both Yorkville High School and Yorkville High School Academy, and after looking at policies at other districts.

If the recommendation is approved by the board, students would be able to access their personal technology devices during passing periods, lunch, study hall and Access periods. The revised policy would go into effect after spring break on March 28.

This policy would be reviewed in May before a recommendation is made for the 2016-17 school year.

Quarterly meetings would then be held with teachers and students to see how it was working.

West said after listening to some concerns, two guiding principles were developed. The personal technology use cannot infringe on the privacy rights of others and it cannot disrupt the educational process.

Teachers will be able to make the final decision on the practice in their own classrooms, he added.

Board member Dr. Robert Brenart called the change in policy “long overdue.”

Fire official says fuel ignited to cause blaze; adjoining office closed for now “We were very concerned if walls were going to fail or not because of the building construction. We had to pretty much keep our distance. We’re not going to get somebody hurt just over real estate.”

By MATT SCHURY mschury@shawmedia.com The Illinois Department of Motor Vehicles office in Plano is expected to be closed for a few weeks while crews clean up following a fire that started in an auto repair shop adjoining the facility.

Firefighters from the Little RockFox Fire Protection District and other area fire districts extinguished the blaze Friday afternoon. It caused extensive damage in the Velasquez Mufflers & Brakes shop in the 700 block of South Street (Route 34).

A sign hangs now inside the DMV’s front entrance door that reads “Closed due to fire. Visit our website for alternate locations cyberdriveillinois.com.”

Dave Jordan, assistant fire chief for the Little Rock-Fox Fire Protection District, said the blaze started in the garage when a vehicle’s fuel tank caught on fire.

“Supposedly they were working on a fuel tank and subsequently some fuel caught fire,” he said, adding that there were two garage bays in the building where the mechanic was operating and each bay had a vehicle in it on the east side of the building.

No injuries were reported.

“We were very lucky. Everybody had evacuated,” Jordan said.

The dispatch call came in around 3 p.m. and Jordan said firefighters were at the scene until about 8 p.m.

“When we got there, there were flames shooting out of those two east doors probably seven or eight feet with that portion of the building fell involved,” he said. “We had the fire under control in about two hours, totally, but then there was a lot of overhaul we had to do. It was a very, very hot fire.”

Jordan said they noticed the walls starting to crack at the top of the building.

Firefighters from the Sandwich Fire Department cut a hole in the roof of Velasquez Muffler & Brakes shop in Plano during Friday’s fire.

“We were very concerned if walls were going to fail or not because of the building construction,” he said. “We had to pretty much keep our distance.

We’re not going to get somebody hurt just over real estate.”

Plano Mayor Bob Hausler said people from the Secretary of State’s office and Illinois State Police inspected the building right after the fire and secured the DMV’s equipment.

The auto shop has been closed since the fire and Hausler said the fire primarily damaged the part of the building containing the garage.

“It was pretty extensive damage to the east end where the car repair shop was,” he said. “As the demolition work [continues] on the areas that were damaged real bad we’ll be doing more inspections so it’s kind of early to get a complete picture.”

Tom Karpus, the city’s Planning,

Building and Zoning director, said a company is cleaning up the DMV office, which sustained smoke damage in the blaze.

“It was primarily smoke, not too much physical damage, but you know that smoke smell gets into all the softer materials and it just doesn’t go away,” Karpus said.

He added that a firewall between the auto shop and the DMV helped to keep the fire contained in the garage area.

“That concrete block wall pretty much kept that fire in the garage base,” he said.

According to Jordan, 11 fire departments assisted including Montgomery, Bristol-Kendall, Oswego, Newark, Big Rock, Lisbon and Leland. There were about 50 firefighters on the scene battling the blaze.

“When our first engine arrived on

the scene, we went right to a portable master stream which shoots about 400 to 500 gallons per minute,” Jordan said. “That line right away made just one heck of a hit.”

Bristol-Kendall firefighters later sprayed the area with a compressed air foam.

Jordan added that the building contains four units and flames had started to spread to some of the other units.

There is also a large storage facility to the south of the building firefighters were keeping an eye on that was storing boats.

“When they discovered they had a fire they utilized the extinguisher to try to suppress it and when that failed they just started going down the row of businesses just to make sure everyone was evacuated,” he said.

Jordan mentioned that traffic control on Route 34 was a big problem until the Plano Police Department assisted them with rerouting vehicles.

“People were driving up to it and stopping in the middle of the road and officers did a great job,” he said. “They blocked the road and stopped anything that was coming except for fire apparatus. I can’t say enough about Plano police.”

OPINIONS OUR VIEW

After delay, early voting should start soon here Early voting for the March 15 primary election in Kendall County and much of the rest of Illinois was proposed to start last Thursday, Feb. 4.

But the start-up of early balloting has been pushed back in Kendall County and numerous other counties across the state as the Illinois State Board of Elections reviews objections filed to petitions filed by several candidates for president.

In a letter published in this newspaper Jan. 28, County Clerk Debbie Gillette, the county’s chief election officer, announced she expects early voting will start next Wednesday, Feb. 17, and

continue through Monday, March 14, at her office in the county office building in Yorkville at 111 W. Fox St. Early voting will also be offered from Monday, Feb. 29, through Thursday, March 10, at Oswego Village Hall and Plano City Hall, according to Gillette.

Gillette is encouraging county voters to check her office’s website at co.kendall.il.us/voter-registration for early voting hours in Oswego and Plano and for additional updates. The clerk’s office can also be reached at 630-553-4104 from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Mondays through Fridays.

We’re pleased to see that the clerk’s office has expanded early voting to include the site at Plano City Hall. No doubt, the additional voting location will prove convenient for voters in the Plano area. We continue to encourage the clerk’s office to consider offering early voting at a fourth site in the Plainfield-Joliet area of the county. The thousands of taxpaying voters in that portion of the county are deserving of a convenient early voting site – the same as their counterparts in the county’s others municipalities.

Depending upon the outcome of the presidential primaries in other states

leading up to the Illinois vote, our state’s primary could essentially be a non-factor in the race for the White House. Voters, however, shouldn’t let what’s happening in the presidential election keep them away from the polls here in Kendall County. In addition to president, voters will be asked to cast ballots for candidates for seats on the county board and for county coroner.

The individuals elected in November to those positions will have a direct say in county governmental operations and help determine how much you will pay for county services over the next four years.

For 5 years, northern Kendall was part of Kane Most folks give little thought to how things we see and take for granted every day came to be the way they are.

Every once in a while, though, someone will suffer a spasm of curiosity and will shoot me an email or call me up and want to know how Kendall County came to be. I usually explain that the area in which we live has not always been Kendall County. In fact, we have not always been part of Illinois, nor even the United States.

By the time the Revolutionary War began in 1775, the Fox Valley was part of Quebec Province and was governed from Canada. At various times prior to that era, the area had been under the control of many, changing Indian tribal groups. When Europeans arrived in North America, the Fox Valley region was claimed by France, until the British assumed control following the end of the French and Indian War in North America in 1763.

The road to modern Kendall County was paved by George Rogers Clark and his band of hardy frontiersmen, who marched west to secure what was then called the Illinois Country for Virginia in 1778, after which Virginia established the region north and west of the Ohio River it as its westernmost county.

After the war, and thanks to Clark’s audacious campaigns, the lands drained by the Fox River were won by the United States as part of the Treaty of Paris peace settlement at the end of the Revolution. Gradually realizing governing such a far-off region was not only expensive but virtually impossible, Virginia surrendered its claim to the Illinois Country to the U.S. government in 1784. Three years later we

REFLECTIONS Roger Matile became part of the Northwest Territory – a huge area comprising the current states of Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio – under terms of the Ordinance of 1787, also called the Northwest Ordinance.

Arthur St. Clair, a mediocre Revolutionary War general with good political connections, was appointed territorial governor, promptly naming the territory’s first county after himself in April of 1790. On June 20, however, St. Clair created another county, Knox, and that’s when Kendall County’s story started to get interesting, for the region including our small county was contained in a portion of the new giant political division.

Old Knox County included about half of the current state of Illinois plus the whole of Indiana, a good deal of Ohio, most of Michigan, and a huge chunk of Wisconsin. The county was named for Secretary of War Henry Knox, another former Revolutionary War general, although one who was both innovative and competent.

In 1800 the territory of Indiana was carved out of the Old Northwest Territory and in 1801 the Fox Valley was included in a redesigned St. Clair County of the new territory. We remained part of Indiana until Illinois Territory was established in 1809.

In 1812, a cycle was begun that would soon become familiar: As population grew in the southern part of the state, new counties were formed to pro-

vide local government. Although the nation was at war again with England, political reorganization and population growth did not stop, and in September of that year, the Fox Valley became part of Madison County, named for President James Madison.

On Nov. 20, 1814, with most fighting of the War of 1812 wrapped up, the territorial legislature established Edwards County, and included the Fox Valley within its bounds. The new county was named for Illinois’ first territorial governor, Ninian Edwards.

After the end of the War of 1812, Illinois Territory kept growing in population, although its land boundaries were pretty much set. Crawford County (named for Sen. William Crawford of Georgia) was established in December and included today’s Kendall County.

On Dec. 3, 1818, Congress granted statehood to Illinois (for the whole story on this, see the Jan. 28 Reflections column). A year later, on March 22, 1819, Clark County, which included the entire Fox River Valley, was established and named for Gen. George Rogers Clark.

As settlement moved north, county boundaries kept changing. In 1821 we became part of Pike County (named for Zebulon Pike an explorer and general during the War of 1812); and in 1824, part of Fulton County (named for Robert Fulton of steamboat fame). In 1825, we were included in the bounds of the new Putnam County (named for Revolutionary War Gen. Rufus Putnam) where we remained until 1831.

On Jan. 15, 1831, the General Assembly formed LaSalle County, which ran from the center of present-day Livingston County all the way north to

Wisconsin, including Kendall County.

We remained part of LaSalle (named for the 17th century French explorer Robert Cavalier de LaSalle) until 1836 when Kane County was formed.

The formation of Kane County (named for Elias Kent Kane, Illinois’ first secretary of state and a U.S. senator) included the three northernmost townships of modern Kendall County – Oswego, Bristol, and Little Rock. The other six – Kendall, NaAuSay, Fox, Big Grove, Lisbon, and Seward – remained part of LaSalle County.

Population was growing too fast in Northern Illinois for things to remain the same for long, however. On Feb. 19, 1841, the Illinois General Assembly established the new county of Kendall, named for Amos Kendall, Postmaster General of the United States, who was President Andrew Jackson’s political crony and fixer as well as a journalist, and, later, partner with Samuel F.B. Morse in the development of the telegraph. Ironically, a county that has voted solidly Republican since the party was formed in 1854 is named for a prominent 19th century Democrat.

It’s been a long road since the 1770s when we were part of Quebec and, I suppose, would have spoken French had we been here. After a dangerous swerve towards becoming Hoosiers, and a brief flirtation with becoming Cheeseheads, we at last settled for being regular Illinois Suckers. It’s all rather nice, even if we do speak broken French these days. Next week, we’ll take a look at the nuts and bolts of the county’s formation.

FORUM To the Editor: A Texas grand jury indicted David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt for recording and exposing Planned Parenthood’s alleged sales of aborted fetal tissue. While pro-choicers may hail this as a victory, I see it as the ultimate evidence as to how much the Democratic and Republican Parties have changed and have been invaded by socialists who are paving the way to Communism.

The argument that a grand jury has indicted the two does not make the case or hold water. In a 1985 newspaper article Judge Sol Wachtler once said, “Any good prosecutor can get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich.” And in this case I personally believe that the prosecutor is nothing more than a pro-choice RINO (Republican In Name Only) who is out to scare anyone into silence who would dare expose Planned Parenthood.

In a 1950 message to Congress, Democratic President Harry Truman said, “Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear.” My, how much the Democratic Party and Democratic voters have changed and that’s why I left that political plantation long ago and have never looked back.

An open heart, mind and soul along with willingness to be submissively receptive are required for forgiveness and redemption yet evil requires only a crack in the human psyche to change the course of an individual and the heart of a nation. Our nation has long been on a collision course with the forces of evil, not from an outside invader, but from the evil within ourselves and our government.

The indictment, as I understand it, states that the two video makers used deceptive practices by creating a company that was buying fetal tissue to expose PP selling fetal tissue. The Texas prosecutor is no doubt either ignoring the fact or totally ignorant that a lawsuit was filed against Planned Parenthood (later dismissed) in Aurora, Ill., alleging that Planned Parenthood misled and lied to Aurora zoning and building officials in 2006 and 2007 to get permits to build its facility there.

Unlike other nations, America once exposed and put her scandals on the front pages for the entire world to see how we morally handled them, thus setting a moral standard for the rest of the world to

Our policy on election letters We invite our readers to submit letters concerning the Tuesday, March 15, primary election for our Forum pages and on our website at KendallCountyNow.com.

follow.

John Basil Barnhill in 1914 wrote, “Where the people fear the government you have tyranny. Where the government fears the people you have liberty.” Clearly the latter has dissolved and truth has become the new hate speech. Awaken my people and know the difference between fear of persecution under unjust laws by corrupt thinking ideologues and fear of prosecution under just laws. In the end we will answer to the Almighty for not fighting the first by means of the latter.

Letters deserve comment

To the Editor: Two letters in the Jan. 21 Forum deserve comment. First, Richard Kastner in a letter quotes the Second Amendment and then stated: “To prevent certain elements of the society of the United States from obtaining guns and thus protect all people of our country should be a no-brainer. So as to protect the people by discouraging such societal elements from gun ownership should be the inalienable right of the President of the United States.”

Richard doesn’t seem to understand the reason for our founders writing the Second Amendment. The Second Amendment was specifically proposed to guarantee an armed citizenry capable to repel any attempt of government takeover of their freedom. Allowing the President to make any law to regulate gun ownership is not constitutional and would be a first step to further regulation of firearms. Taking away firearms from citizens is what every dictator has done to gain control over the people. Any change to the Constitution or the Bill of Rights can only and should only be done by an amendment to the constitution with approval by the citizens.

A second letter by Judy Siedleki stated:

“Prisoner exchange with Iran. Patience and diplomacy pay off.” I am happy that our four prisoners were released by Iran; however, none of the four should have been imprisoned and all were held prisoner for extended periods of time without the current Administration or the State Department doing anything to affect their release. In fact the Administration negotiated the nuclear agreement with Iran without insisting on release of the prisoners first. Now consider the success of the diplomacy in release of the prisoners.

In the first case of prisoner exchange the Administration released five Taliban Terrorist for Army Deserter, Bowe Bergdahl.

In the latest release four Americans, who were unreasonably imprisoned and subjected to severe treatment in Iran, were released for seven convicted Iranians. If you consider the results mathematically, our enemies got 13 released and returned for 5 Americans. (13 to 5 for our enemies.)

I will repeat that I am glad that the four Americans were released but this cannot be considered diplomatic wins by any stretch of the imagination.

So, yes we do need to vote smart and elect candidates that support the Constitution and the security of the United States, which includes safeguarding all classified information.

Rauner ignoring destruction

always bankruptcy court.

He ignores the human destruction he sees happening while he digs in deeper regarding his pro business beliefs. With the systematic dismantling of almost all human service agencies across the state he continues to hold that all will be better if we can corporatize the system.

The latest victim is the largest social service agency in the state who will layoff half their staff because the state stopped funding them due to not having a full budget. Initially it will involve the thousands of kids in foster care not being able to see their parents as often as there won’t be staff to transport and then monitor the visits.

Later, the real tragedy will be if and when the state gets a budget, can they get these agencies up and running again?

The laid-off staff won’t be sitting around waiting to see if Springfield will come up with a plan. They will be re-employed elsewhere. Trained staff will disappear and these programs will have to be started from scratch. That will be expensive to replace. Budgets will have to be expanded and money will be diverted to training new people. And the money will come from where, an even bigger tax increase?

If the state was in fact being run like a company, the board would surely fire the CEO due to mismanagement and a dismal outlook.

But this governor has also been walking with his elite monied crowd for too long. In addition to showing little concern for the collateral damage to the poor and helpless at his news conference, due to his policies, he then announces an important new staff addition. His wife just hired a person to fill her vacant chief of staff position at a sum of $100,000 a year. Welcome to the one percent, you new staff member. The air smells sweeter up there.

The people of the state of Illinois will sleep better knowing Mrs. Rauner’s schedule will be functioning more smoothly and thankfully money was found to fill this much-needed slot.

Finally, at the end of his address, the governor wanted to invite the press to partake in a gift he received from his fellow pro-business governor from Michigan.

Who he reminded everyone has instilled his own pro-business policies and they are working great. “Drink up, everyone, my friend Gov. Snyder says the water from Michigan is the best there is, he guarantees it. Bottled in Flint.”

To the Editor: The latest podium address by our governor illustrates why we should rethink letting rich businessmen take over government. Bruce Rauner feels the state will be better served if we address issues like unemployment tax rates, tort reform, union positions on wages and benefits and turning Illinois into a right-to-work state.

remainder will be for training teachers.

Board member Jason Senffner voted with the others to approve the blended classes, but said he favored going slowly. “I’m sure a portion of the community wants to take classes online, but I believe part wants to build a relationship with teachers, too,” he said.

Title I, ESY summer school plans approved

Board members approved plans for both Title I summer school programs, for students who are economically disadvantaged, and Extended School Year (ESY) programs for special education students who need them.

Title I summer school classes in reading and math will be held from July 11 to 29, four days a week for elementary and middle school students, and two hours a day, four days a week for high school students. They will be held at Yorkville Intermediate School, Yorkville Middle School and Yorkville High School.

Also approved were plans for the ESY summer program for students with disabilities. In previous years, ESY programs were provided by the Kendall County Special Education Cooperative,

which is being dissolved June 30.

Expected dates for ESY summer classes are June 15 to July 19. Dr. Hassan von Schlegell, director of student services, said he expects 165 students will take part in the program, coming from Plano, Newark and Lisbon schools as well as Yorkville.

These programs will be offered at Autumn Creek Elementary for elementary students and at Yorkville Middle School for middle school and high school students.

ESY classes are mandated for students who are at risk of regressing over the summer. According to von Schlegell, not all special education students are eligible for the program but those who participate are chosen on the basis of their disability and their Individualized Education Plan (IEP).

Training for staff and for parents

Gallt told the board that “Yorkville University” will provide six courses in the district for teachers and other staff members this spring. Administrators and teachers have volunteered to teach the classes in literacy, health and wellness, self-defense, and technology to their co-workers.

Ask to waive development fees for senior project

Jeff Crane of GC Housing Development Corporation asked the board to waive transition fees on a proposed senior housing development called Anthony Place. The 75-unit independent living building is proposed at Fremont and Walnut Streets. The plan was on the agenda of Tuesday’s Yorkville City Council meeting.

Crane said the deed to the property would restrict it to residents age 55

Yorkville High School’s head volleyball coach and assistant volleyball coach will switch roles in a transfer approved by the board. Mike Dunn, the current head coach, will become the assistant coach next year while current assistant coach Barbie Langhoff will become head coach.

The board also transferred custodian Lee Thieme to a maintenance position. Lindsay Decker was hired as Bristol Bay Elementary School intramural sixth grade boys basketball coach and Eric Sutor as Autumn Creek Elementary School intramural fifth grade boys basketball coach.

Resignations were accepted from Yorkville Middle School seventh grade social studies teacher Heather Pankow, effective immediately; Renee Sartore, director of English Language Learning programs, at the end of the school year; and assistant computer technician Bowen Mangabhai effective Friday.

Board members OK’d job descriptions for occupational therapist and physical therapist. Those positions were not needed in the district before but will be now that special education services will become a district responsibility. Their services have been provided by the Kendall County Special Education Cooperative which is being dissolved June 30.

Human Resources Director Troy Courtney told the board the district will also need a bilingual speech language pathologist and bilingual special education teacher next year, both of which have been provided previously by the Special Education Cooperative.

In addition, the district will need a third-grade dual language teacher next year as students who have been in the program since kindergarten advance to that grade.

Dreaming of a New Color?

Thursday, February 11, 2016

Gallt told the board she has been working to develop a partnership with area hospitals that would allow the district to provide a congratulations letter to families with new babies- along with a book called “I Wish You More.”

She said the letter would encourage parents to read to their children and also contain a copy of the district’s kindergarten curriculum.

Board member Tom Kozlowicz called it “an outstanding idea.” Dr. Lynn Burks suggested looking for additional partners, such as the district’s education foundation or the Yorkville Public Library, to share the cost. Kozlowicz suggested partnering with the Yorkville Area Chamber of Commerce.

Gallt asked the board for any other ideas on ways to help develop literacy skills in preschool age children in the district.

or older. Superintendent Tim Shimp said that would make it a “non-student generating property.” Board President Dave Dockstader noted that, even if the board waived the $3,000 per unit transition fee, the property would still generate real estate taxes for the district.

The request will be on the board’s Feb. 22 agenda.

Any of those who will be teaching one of these courses for the first time this spring will get training in adult education later this month. Staff members other than administrators will be compensated for teaching these classes.

Gallt said that non-certified (non-teaching) staff members were excited to be able to take these courses, especially the classes in Google and Excel.

Gallt also said the district is looking at offering classes for district parents.

In order to encourage more parents to take part, she said some programs may be offered online and in shorter (less than 15-minute) segments. Possible topics include technology, literacy, gifted programs, and math practices.

County official calls police on IDNR sharpshooters

By MATT SCHURY mschury@kendallcountynow.com A Kendall County official says he called the police when he heard that Illinois Department of Natural Resources sharpshooters recently had trespassed on Kendall County Forest Preserve District property.

The Kendall County Forest Preserve District Board voted last year to deny a request from the IDNR to cull deer suspected of having chronic wasting disease on district property. The IDNR, however, can shoot deer on private property if they are given permission by the landowner.

Board member Bob Davidson said he contacted Kendall County sheriff’s police after he heard from constituents who said they thought the sharpshooters were shooting deer at the Henneberry Woods Forest Preserve north of Ill. Route 126 near Yorkville.

Forest Preserve President Jeff Wehrli said it was determined that the shooters were indeed on forest preserve land and chalks it up to an error by the IDNR. “We did receive an email apologizing and they moved their equipment and operation off of the property, but

it was close to the private property but it was not on private property,” Wehrli said. “There will be people watching.”

Davidson said the matter has been turned over to the Illinois Game Warden.

Chronic wasting disease is a neurological disease that was discovered in deer in Illinois in 2003. The disease is passed between adult deer via bodily fluids. A deer showing symptoms of the disease usually dies within two to three weeks. However, the animal can carry the disease for two years and transmit it to other deer in that time, according to the IDNR. Chronic wasting disease was first confirmed to be found in deer in Kendall County in 2013.

Dave Guritz, the forest preserve’s director, said the district should consider installing boundary markers soon so this doesn’t happen again.

“It was an error and they were not aware that Henneberry was in our holdings,” Guritz said. “Putting up some property markers along our borders would go a long way in helping to identify those lines. This isn’t the first time that we’ve had this type of encroachment.”

School chief unveils administrative restructuring plan

By KATHY FARREN news@kendallcountynow.com Yorkville School Superintendent Tim Shimp is proposing an administrative restructuring as the district assumes the responsibility for special education students and as it faces new requirements for employee performance evaluations.

He outlined his recommended changes at Monday’s Board of Education meeting, although he had met individually with board members ahead of time about the Tim Shimp changes. Shimp said he would be looking for direction from the board on the administrative structure when they meet again Feb. 22.

A chart of the proposed changes shows a couple of new positions while other jobs would get new titles and some a slight change of responsibilities.

Shimp said the changes would better reflect the interaction between positions and take into account the special education programs that will become the district’s responsibility as of July 1 when the Kendall County Special Education Cooperative is dissolved.

Overall, the changes he presented

were estimated to cost the district an additional $186,859 a year in salaries and benefits.

As proposed, three administrators would report directly to Shimp – the Chief Academic Officer, the Chief Operating Officer and a new Director of Communications.

Based on the estimated compensation cost provided for each of the administrative positions, it appears that current Director of Teaching and Learning Kelley Gallt would be the Chief Academic Officer, and current Assistant Superintendent for Finance and Operations Dean Romano would be the Chief Operating Officer.

The district current pays for public relations services for $56,718. The cost of compensation and benefits for this new administrator were estimated at $103,469. (Benefits for existing administrators are between $19,839 and $27,302.)

“For a district our size, having someone on staff [for communications] is something I would recommend,” Shimp said. “There’s no better time to be on the proactive side of branding the district.”

Board members seemed receptive to the suggestion. Dr. Robert Brenart said part of the job would be to let the community know “what’s happening

at the operational level” in the district.

Members suggested programs a communications director could present to the community, such as the Parent University, classes the district offers for parents of students.

Board President Dave Dockstader said, “It’s time to think about it.”

He said there were many instances in the past year where other administrators’ time was taken up answering press inquiries, on topics ranging from negotiations to questions about former Congressman Dennis Hastert’s time teaching in the district.

Academics

Under the Chief Academic Officer, the chart shows two Directors of Teaching and Learning, one with responsibility for data and English Language Learner (ELL) programs and the other with responsibility for personalized learning (including online programs) and gifted programs.

Five district principals would report to the director responsible for data and ELL, while the other four principals and a gifted program coordinator would report to the other director.

Shimp said, “By no means does it mean I’m relinquishing my responsibility for evaluating principals or supporting them. But there are things in

the community I would like to do... It would be more efficient with a structure similar to this.”

Also under the Chief Academic Officer is the Director of Student Services, a position created within the last year and held by Dr. Hassan von Schlegell.

He oversees the special education programs that will become district responsibility July 1.

An Assistant Director of Student Services and two Student Services Coordinators at the elementary level would report to the Director of Student Services, as would one assistant principal each from Yorkville High School and Yorkville Middle School.

The district has been paying the Special Education Cooperative $449,889 for some of the services those Student Services Coordinators would provide.

Two Teachers on Special Assignment (TOSA) would oversee online or blended (part online and part in the classroom) courses as the district develops them. They would report to the Chief Academic Officer. The TOSA positions would replace the current instructional technology specialist positions.

Overall, the changes in the Academics area of administration would cost

Area residents face charges in credit card theft SHAW MEDIA An investigation by the Kendall County Sheriff’s Office has led to the arrest of a Sandwich woman and a 16-year-old Yorkville resident in connection with the theft of a credit card Oct. 15 from a vehicle parked in the 0-100 block of Poplar Drive near Yorkville.

On Jan. 29 the Kendall County State’s Attorney’s Office charged Alexis Parr, 20, of Sandwich, with two counts of unlawful use of a credit card, both Class 4 felonies.

Parr’s bond was set at $10,000, with 10 percent of the total required to apply for release. Parr was taken into custody Feb. 4 by the Sandwich Police Department and transported to the Kendall County Jail, where she remains in custody.

The state’s attorney’s office charged the juvenile with one count of burglary, a Class 2 felony, and 11 counts of unlawful use of a credit card. One of the counts of unlawful use of a credit card was a Class 3 felony and the remaining 10 counts were Class 4 felonies.

The sheriff’s office reported that the stolen credit card had been used at several locations in Kendall County.

an additional $142,068 a year for salary and benefits, with $138,863 of that amount coming from Student Services, or special education, responsibilities.

The changes would provide more support for required teacher evaluations, Shimp said.

Brenart said a long time goal of the board has been to bring more administrators and principals into decision-making and Burks added that a goal, even before Shimp’s predecessor was hired, was to have “less autocratic leadership and more collaboration.”

Shimp said that, “The more capacity we can build in student services, the more we can reduce legal fees. We need to get better at special education and have more people understand it.”

Operations

The Chief Operating Officer would have four people reporting to him – Director of Technology (who would also report to the Chief Academic Officer), Director of Business Services, Director of Facility Operations, and Director of Human Resources. The COO would oversee construction management and architect services.

Shown under the Director of Technology are an Administrative Assistant, Infrastructure Supervisor, Systems Supervisor and Technology Assistants. Only the Administrative Assistant would be a new position.

Yorkville squad celebrates Foxes roll to big season finish historic state tourney finish

By CHRISTINE BOLIN DASCHER cbolin@kendallcountynow.com

By CHRISTINE BOLIN DASCHER cbolin@kendallcountynow.com The Yorkville cheer team made school history on Saturday with its highest finish in school history, placing fourth at the state tournament held last weekend at the U.S. Cellular Coliseum in Bloomington.

The Foxes finished with a score of 89.37 in the 10-team Medium Division, which was won by Oak Forest (92.13). Lemont (90.13) and Crystal Lake Central (89.80) finished in the top three.

“Placing in the top of any state level competition is an incredible feat in any sport,” said Yorkville first-year head coach Erin George.

“Being in the Medium Division instead of Large [like last year] presented its own unique set of challenges. The team put on our best two performances of the season at state.

A top-five finish is something to be extremely proud of.”

State closed out Yorkville’s competitive season, which included a

fourth-place finish at Joliet West’s Invite, third place at Huntley’s Sweetheart Invitational, first place at Buffalo Grove’s Cheer Invite, a second straight Northern Illinois Big 12 Conference title and a second-place finish at the DeKalb Sectional. All-Conference honors went to Chloe Longust, Danielle Klein, Karah Wardell (First Team), Allexa Hoff and Amber Citro (Honorable Mention).

“This year has been compared to a climb up a set of stairs,” George said. “We definitely had our ups and downs but no matter what, we were pressing forward.

“We reached the top of the stairs at the ideal time in the season and we had a blast at the state competition.

Illinois cheerleading has come so far in the 11 years that it has been an IHSA-sanctioned sport, and we are proud and honored to have made it to the state finals for the second year in a row.”

Last season, Yorkville placed seventh overall in the Large Division.

Just two days after the Yorkville girls’ bowling team placed second overall at the Northern Illinois Big 12 Conference tournament, the Foxes ended up fifth at the Oswego East Regional.

The top four teams advanced to the Reavis Sectional on Saturday, but Yorkville will still be represented after Louisa Washburn and Hannah Jaros were the first two individuals to move on as individual qualifiers.

Washburn posted a 1,269 and Jaros rolled a 1,243 at regional site Funway in Batavia last Saturday. Jaden Vargas missed qualifying by four pins after she finished with a 1,072.

“It would have been nice to see the whole team advance because we’ve improved so much, but I’m happy we were able to move on,” Jaros said. “That was the goal.”

“The regional was pretty exciting,” Washburn added. “Hannah and I really wanted to make sectionals together.”

As a team, Yorkville finished with a 5,522. Waubonsie Valley won the 12team event with a 6,316 series, followed

by Oswego East (6,275), West Aurora (6,065) and Oswego (5,868).

“We are in a really tough regional.

We would have made it out of quite a few if we were in a different one,” Yorkville head coach Julie Renda said.

“Last year, our first year [competing as a team], we were nowhere near that.

That’s the goal for next year.”

At the conference tournament last Thursday, Sycamore won the nineteam event with a 6,341 and also finished first overall in the standings.

Yorkville ended up with a 6,258 and was second overall in team standings after finishing the league dual season at 7-1 (8-2 overall).

“We knew going in we could beat [Sycamore], but they bowled exceptionally well,” Renda said.

Jaros, Washburn and Vargas were named to the All-Conference team. Jaros was No. 1 overall in the standings after finishing the tournament with a 1,269 series.

Vargas rolled a 1,106 while Washburn finished with a 1,043. Other Yorkville contributors included Liz Chmielewski (967), Livy Dearborn (939) and Kelsey Fairless (934).

“I didn’t do as well as I wanted to at conference, but it made me proud to see the girls on the team step up and do an amazing job,” Washburn said.

The rubber match goes to Yorkville.

After splitting the first two meetings against the Kaneland girls basketball team, the Foxes jumped out early and cruised to a 55-37 victory Friday night in Maple Park.

“We made shots early,” Yorkville coach Luke Engelhardt said. “We haven’t come out of the gates well in the first quarter and we’ve been a little uptight and a lot of the same looks we had today, we’ve been missing. We’ve been having good games with [Kaneland] every year, so it’s nice to get this series.”

“We didn’t have a lot of energy,” Kaneland coach Ernie Colombe added.

“They’re a good team. We came out with no energy – part of that is literally, we have about 11 kids sick. We’re trying to stay afloat. No excuses, though, we didn’t have the energy.”

The Knights (19-4, 7-4 in Northern Illinois Big 12 East) beat Yorkville, 42-33, at the Ottawa tournament in December, but the Foxes won, 48-47, in the first conference meeting Jan. 15.

The Foxes officially locked up the Northern Illinois Big 12 Conference title for the first time at 12-0 after the win.

win it outright and the pressure was off,” Engelhardt said. “You could see the girls were a little more relaxed. If we play comfortable, we can be a tough team.”

Against Kaneland, Yorkville guard Lauren Daffenberg had a game-high 13 points and connected on a pair of three-pointers, center Lindsay Harrison had 10 points center Katie Nolan added nine for the Foxes, who have won 10 in a row – their last loss coming Dec. 23 to Kaneland.

After a jumper by Bailey Crimmins cut the Yorkville deficit to 5-4 two minutes into the game, the Foxes pushed ahead with a 7-0 run. They went up by double-digits with 30 seconds left in the first quarter – on a jumper by Clarissa Perez – and the lead never dropped into single digits the rest of the way.

“There was nothing on the line tonight but pride,” Colombe said. “They had the conference, we couldn’t get it.”

Notes: In the win against Sycamore, the Foxes were led by Nolan (11 points).

Nolan also led Yorkville with 19 points the victory against Minooka.

In the Class 4A Yorkville Regional, the No. 4 seeded Foxes will take on the winner of No. 13 West Aurora/No. 20 Plainfield Central on Feb. 17. The title game will take place on Feb. 18.

18 BOYS BASKETBALL

Yorkville squad falls to Morris in wild overtime finish

By MARK JOHNSON sports@kendallcountynow.com It appeared that overtime had come and gone without either Morris or Yorkville scoring a point in the Northern Illinois Big 12 Conference East boys basketball game Saturday night.

But during a scramble for the rebound on Tommy Balentine’s final-second missed three-point attempt, the Foxes fouled Morris forward Nathaniel Halcomb. Yorkville was long since in the double bonus, so Halcomb went to the line, where he had missed his last three attempts, as a half-second was put back

on the clock.

Halcomb got his first free throw to fall, and when Yorkville’s rebound and heave of his missed second fell short, Morris had a 40-39 win and a stunning end to its six-game losing streak.

The Foxes (10-12, 2-6) had long possessions at the end of regulation and overtime and failed to get a clean shot. They kept the ball for the final 2:06, and out of a timeout at the eight-second mark, their isolation play resulted in a blocked shot

by Halcomb.

In overtime, the Foxes bled clock after getting the ball at around the 1:30 mark until they had a bad pass go out of

bounds with 13 seconds showing.

“We wanted the last shot, which we got,” Yorkville head coach Mike Dunn said. “[Halcomb] made a great defensive play. Give them credit. On the second play, we didn’t make a good, angled pass and turned the ball over. That is on us. We didn’t close. We didn’t finish the deal.”

Morris (9-14, 2-7) rode 10 early points from Matt Shaw to a 15-6 lead late in the first quarter, but the Foxes closed the gap to five points by quarter’s end and went ahead on a Dan Kaczmarek three-pointer with 2:41 left in the first half. They continued to maintain narrow leads into the fourth.

Shaw drew Morris even at 36-36 with a free throw with 4:47 to play and gave the hosts the lead with a three at the 2:42 mark. Master Davis quickly hit a three at the other end to catch the Foxes back up. They would not score again.

Davis led Yorkville with 12 points.

DeAndre Manuel filled up the box score with seven points, 10 rebounds, three assists and four steals.

Notes: Prior to Morris, Yorkville defeated Rochelle, 51-43, and snapped a three-game losing streak. The Foxes were led by Austin Avery and Kaczmarek (12 points each). Yorkville’s next game is hosting Sycamore Friday.

Parkview Christian finishes second overall at ICC tournament

By CHRISTINE BOLIN DASCHER cbolin@kendallcountynow.com Both the Parkview Christian and Yorkville Christian boys basketball teams made its debut at the Illinois Christian Conference tournament, which wrapped up on Saturday.

No. 2 seed Parkview Christian fell to No. 1 Community Christian, 59-53, in the title game, despite Zach Anderson’s

27 points and 10 rebounds.

“I thought we had a shot at them, and we did,” said Parkview Christian head coach Don Davidson, whose Falcons also won tournament games over No. 7 Grace Christian and No. 3 Kankakee Trinity. “It’s our third year as a program, and it takes time to get over that hump of playing with confidence and trying to beat a good team. It’s just one of the steps along the way.”

No. 6 Yorkville Christian upheld its seed after losing to No. 4 Families of Faith, 61-49. The Mustangs started the tournament with a 39-35 loss to Kankakee Trinity before beating Grace Christian, 45-29.

“Coming in, we knew who we had to go up against and that it would be an uphill climb,” Yorkville Christian head coach Aaron Sovern said. “But I was pleased with the effort.”

Parkview Christian capped the season on Monday with a record of 17-10 after the 61-31 victory over Romeoville Christian on Senior Night. Anderson, Jonathan Hiller, Russell Lanehart, Danny Mendoza and Neal Smith were honored.

Yorkville Christian is 11-13 overall with two games remaining at Lake County Baptist on Friday and at Calumet Christian on Feb. 18.

A grueling Class 3A Bradley-Bourbonnais Regional field proved to be a challenge for the Yorkville wrestling team as the Foxes emerged with five sectional qualifiers.

Moline won the regional team title with a score of 171, while Plainfield South (162), Minooka (147) and Rock Island (130) all finished ahead of Yorkville’s 108.

Yorkville senior Bryce Shewan (386) won an individual regional title at 182 pounds. He received a first-round bye and pinned Plainfield South in 3:37 to reach the finals. Shewan capped the day with a win by injury default over Moline.

Three other Foxes wrestled in championship bouts.

Junior Hunter Vester (9-8) took second at 120 after a 9-3 loss to Moline’s Trenton Jackson. Earlier, Vester won an 11-10 decision over Bradley-Bourbonnais and won a 6-4 decision over

Normal Community.

Senior Joey Nauman (10-5) placed second at 170 after a 6-3 loss to Minooka’s Carson Oughton in the finals.

Nauman won a 9-7 decision over Rock Island in the quarterfinals and pinned Moline in 1:25.

Senior Will Ferguson (36-7) was the 220-pound runner-up after a 2-0 loss to Plainfield South’s Eric Johnson in the finals. Ferguson had a dominating start, pinning East Moline United in 55 seconds before a 10-0 major decision over Minooka.

Senior Chad Gholson captured third at 132 with a 3-0 win over East Moline United in the finals.

The five sectional qualifiers advance to the Bolingbrook Regional on Friday and Saturday. The top four finishers in each weight class will advance to the state finals Feb. 18-20 in Champaign.

Jake Snow took a fourth-place regional finish at 145, and Ryan Morris finished fourth at 285 to make both wrestlers sectional alternates.

The Yorkville sophomore girls basketball team defeated Kaneland 36-27 Friday. Kara Aloisio’s field goal provided the first Yorkville lead at 23-21 late in the third quarter. Claudia Grunwald led with 13 points, three assists and nine steals. Yorkville also defeated Sycamore, 38-36, on Feb. 2. Free throws by Molly Green and Sydnei Avery provided the final cushion for the win. Aloisio and Sydnei Avery had eight points each and Peyton Willie contributed seven.

SPORTS BOYS BASKETBALL: NEWARK 63, INDIAN CREEK 50

Newark wins second straight conference title

Norsemen top Indian Creek, improve to 21-2

The Newark boys basketball team celebrates their win.

By CHRISTINE BOLIN DASCHER cbolin@kendallcountynow.com The Newark boys basketball team took home its second straight golden ball trophy on Friday night after the No. 1 seeded Norsemen topped No. 2 Indian Creek, 63-50, in the Little Ten Conference tournament title game at Somonauk.

With the win, the Norsemen improved to 21-2 overall and won their 10th consecutive game. This was the 19th overall tournament title for Newark in the 97 years the tournament has existed. Somonauk won the third place game with a 71-70 victory over Leland-Earlville.

“It feels good to reclaim what was ours again,” Newark senior Jack Clausel said. “The gold ball is back, and it’s nice. That was the goal, and we did it. We knew we could.”

Not only did the Norsemen receive another trophy for their collection after the tournament, but several players moved up on Newark’s all-time scoring list.

Senior Jack Clausel, who scored 14 points against Indian Creek, is now No. 7 with 1,429 points. He is just 20 points away from the No. 6 spot, which is held by current assistant coach John Avery (1,449).

Senior Evan Schomer (teamhigh 16 points) now has 1,068 points and now No. 12 after passing David Thompson (1,048 points). Junior Will Clausel (15 points) is now at 1,039 points.

“It’s fun, but we are not thinking a whole lot about it. It’s just happening as we are playing,” Schomer said.

“We know what we have to do.”

Indian Creek (15-7 overall) led 1611 after the first quarter and 30-28 at the break.

“We didn’t think [Indian Creek] would stay that hot,” Newark head coach Rick Tollefson said. “They came out fired up, and teams are always going to want to be that way against us.”

Newark took its first lead of the game, 31-30, in the opening minute of the third after a bucket by Will Clausel.

The Timberwolves’ final lead was 34-33 before the Norsemen went on a 13-2 run and took their first double-digit lead of the contest, 46-36, after a conventional three-point play from Jack Clausel with 1:05 left in the third. Going into the final frame, they led 50-36 and never looked back.

“We battled hard,” Indian Creek head coach Joe Piekarz said. “That’s what you want when you have two good teams going against one another. We knew we’d have to shoot well to win – and we did in the first half.”

Notes: To reach the title game, the Norsemen defeated Somonauk, 6747, on Thursday while Indian Creek topped Leland-Earlville, 65-61. Will Clausel led the way with 24 points against the Bobcats.

Newark’s next game is Friday at home against Somonauk on Hall of Fame night.

‘He really is the face of Newark’ Longtime fire chief reflects on career

I

By MATT SCHURY mschury@kendallcountynow.com t all started in December, or maybe it was back in 1953.

Regardless of when it started, there now is a street in the village of Newark named after former longtime fire chief Lowell Mathre.

A section of Main Street at Jackson Street in front of the fire barn in Newark is marked as “Honorary Lowell Mathre Drive.”

“It was quite an honor,” Mathre said. “The town was founded in 1835 and it was the first time that I know of in the history of the town that anybody has had a street named after him in all these years. So I kind of feel honored about that.”

The question of why it’s there is something that is easy to answer. Newark resident CJ Fifield has the answer and he says it’s quite simple.

“He really is the face of Newark,” he said.

Fifield says he had the idea to name a street after Mathre, who was chief of the Newark Fire District for more than 50 years.

“I approached the City Council with the idea of honoring him because he is the face of Newark, and the city council was like – ‘The whole street?’” Fifield said.

“And I said, ‘No, just in front of the fire barn’ and I even offered to pay for the sign because I just thought it was that important that we honor this man.”

The village hosted a ceremony unveiling the street sign during the WinterFest community celebration Dec. 5.

“He thought that he was getting a parking stall at the fire

used for parades.

“It would still be workable if we needed it,” he said.

Mathre adds that he’s glad he is not just starting out as a firefighter today.

“I’m kind of glad that I don’t have the responsibilities with all the computers and changes,” he said. “You almost have to be a college professor to understand everything.”

Thanks to an understanding wife, Van, a good, dedicated crew and a supportive community, Mathre said he hasn’t had to go through some of the things other area fire chiefs have had to face.

“My wife put up with a lot of things from me and she helped a lot,” he said. “It was exciting.”

‘Some pretty good fires’

Mathre still recalls his first call, which turned out to be a false alarm.

The first night he joined, the fire whistle blew and he ran back into town, about four blocks from the firehouse, and was ready for action.

“I got there and they couldn’t figure out what was going on,” he said. “They had a pop cooler that was sitting in the firehouse there and someone bumped the pop cooler, and there was a relay switch for our siren right there that they jarred it enough to set it off.”

He remembers that it took a while to figure out what was goPhoto provided ing on.

Kifowit: Old cellphones Sign-ups for park district can help Mutual Ground spring programs to begin SHAW MEDIA Continuing her efforts to assist victims of domestic violence and sexual assault, state Rep. Stephanie Kifowit, D-Oswego, is organizing a used cellphone drive, where residents are encouraged to drop off old cellphones at her constituent service office at 1677 Montgomery Road, Suite 116, in Aurora.

“For the past several years, I have coordinated with Mutual Ground in helping them collect hundreds of used cellphones to benefit victims and their families,” Stephanie Kifowit said. “These Kifowit cellphones are sometimes the only lifeline survivors have to escape their abusers.”

Residents are invited to drop off cellphones, accessories and chargers for Mutual Ground. Donated cellphones will be reprogrammed and given to people in need or recycled with the proceeds going towards helping victims.

Mutual Ground is one of the oldest and largest domestic violence and sexual as-

sault service agencies in Illinois. They provide 24-hour hotlines staffed by trained crisis intervention advocates who counsel over 2,000 women a month.

Those interested in donating their time or other resources can reach Mutual Ground at 630-897-0084.

This past year, Kifowit worked to provide support to victims of domestic violence by supporting a new law giving domestic violence victims more time in paying start up fees for utilities.

She also sponsored legislation to help prosecutors have time to bring rapists to justice.

Under her new law, the time to collect and complete the analysis of any evidence related to a rape would not count toward the statute of limitations.

This gives investigators more time to thoroughly investigate offenses and cuts down on the number of instances where an offender might avoid prison time because the statute of limitations has ended.

For more information, contact Kifowit’s constituent service office by phone at 630-585-1308, by email at Stephanie.Kifowit@att.net, or by visiting www.ILDistrict84.com.

• FIRE CHIEF

Continued from page 1 52 just outside of Lisbon. They lost 14,000 turkeys, he said.

“I don’t know what happened or what caused it but it was pretty much totally involved when we got there,” he said. “We saved the rest of the buildings.”

After he retired as chief in 2012, the Illinois Fire Chiefs Association named him chief emeritus, a title he says only has been designated to about 30 chiefs over the years.

“That was quite an honor for our small department to get that,” he said.

“To be chief emeritus, I feel pretty humble and proud of that.”

Mathre will start his 64th year as a volunteer firefighter next month.

“I don’t go out on the calls. Once in a while I’ll go, but not very often, it depends on what it is,” he says. “I laugh about it – I shut the doors if it’s cold and leave them open if it’s warm.”

Mathre says he has been a volunteer so long it’s just automatic for him now, though he admits that the job is not for everyone.

“I don’t go out on the calls.

Once in a while I’ll go, but not very often, it depends on what it is. I laugh about it – I shut the doors if it’s cold and leave them open if it’s warm.”

Lowell Mathre Former Newark fire chief who is in his 64th year as a volunteer firefighter

“We’ve had some guys come in and want to be a firefighter, but they go out on the first call or the first bad accident and they can’t handle that,” he said.

However, for Mathre being a firefighter is a family affair. His oldest son, Jeff, now is chief and his other son, Greg, is assistant chief. He also has a grandson who is a captain in the department, as well as a grandson who is an assistant chief in the Lisbon Fire Department. Another grandson is a firefighter and three granddaughters were on the department.

“I have so many in the family – I laugh that we could out vote them,” Mathre says. “I don’t know how many in the family have been on, I can’t keep up with them all. It’s been great and I was really fortunate to have good trustees and a lot of good help.

The community has also backed us whenever they’ve needed anything.”

Fifield first worked with Mathre in the early 1970s when he was a state trooper.

“The fire department is his home,” he said. “When I was a state trooper, God, if there was a wreck out this way I was working with those guys, and for a small department they’re great.”

In 1980, the fire district got a new station and Mathre looked at the district map and reflected on how many accidents had occurred along Route 71 between routes 47 and 52. He says he took a black pen and went down Route 71 and put in a black X for just the accidents he could remember since the road was created in the 1940s. He estimates he made more than 40 marks of fatal accidents on the map.

“One time we talked about putting crosses out but it got to be so many that you would start to think it looked like a cemetery there,” he said.

When asked how many accidents he estimated he has responded to over the years, Mathre draws a blank at first but then one accident jumps to mind.

“We’ve had some real bad ones,”

he said. “There have been so many of them.”

Mathre remembered one night when some Caterpillar workers were coming home and they were involved in a crash. The accident happened at a place Mathre refers to as “Skunk Hallow” on Route 71 between Sleepy Hollow and Hollenback Road.

At the time Mathre was working the third shift himself at Caterpillar.

“It was a truck that they hit and it got called in as a truck fire ... both of those guys got killed,” he said. “It was just gruesome. We got down there ... it just makes you quiver when you think about it. It’s not a pleasant sight to see.

Sometimes you don’t go to sleep very good when you get home at night.”

Mathre says many of the accidents he has seen were due to carelessness on the part of the driver or slippery weather conditions.

“There have been some that have been bad and they were fortunate to survive,” he said.

What kept him serving?

“Sometimes I wonder,” he said.

“Why am I still doing this but somebody has got to do it.”

Mathre says he has had a lot of good help through the years, which made his job easy.

“If I had a chance to I’d do it all over again, I would,” he said.

PADS discusses mental illness SHAW MEDIA Site coordinators for Public Action to Deliver Shelter (PADS) of Kendall County recently held their mid-season meeting at the Yorkville Public Library.

The main topic of discussion was mental illness, recognizing its signs and symptoms, and suggesting appropriate responses for volunteers, according to Anne Engelhardt, executive director of Kendall County PADS. “PADS is operating very well overall, thanks to the strong leadership skills of the site coordinators,” she said. “This year we have been very aware of the mental health conditions of our guests.”

Speakers at the meeting were counselor Rose Romero and Jason Andrade, director of mental health at the Kendall County Health Department. PADS board members were also in attendance.

“In an organization this big, with more than 520 volunteers, covering more than 25 percent of the hours in a year, we can expect to experience a few hiccups or bumps,” Engelhardt said. “I’m always amazed and appreciate how well PADS functions.”

Through April 16, Kendall County PADS is providing homeless shelters from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. at these sites on the following days: • Sundays at Cross Lutheran Church, 8609 Route 47, Yorkville; • Mondays, Yorkville Congregational United Church of Christ, 409 Center Parkway, Yorkville; • Tuesdays, Harvest New Beginnings, 5315 Douglas Road, Oswego; • Wednesdays, United Methodist Church of Plano, 219 North Hale Street, Plano; • Thursdays, Trinity United Methodist Church, 2505 Boomer Lane, Yorkville; • Fridays, Church of the Good Shepherd, 5 West Washington Street, Oswego; • Saturdays, St. Luke’s Lutheran Church, 53 Fernwood Road, Boulder Hill.

Overnight guests at PADS receive a hot meal, a safe place to sleep, breakfast, and a packaged lunch to go. Since this PADS season began last October, the nonprofit organization has provided more than 500 overnight stays. Those who wish to volunteer or donate may do so online at kendallcountypads.org or by calling 331-207-8903.

Some PADS guests own cars and are thus able to drive themselves to the shelter sites. But for those without transportation, Yorkville Express taxi service has been picking up and dropping off PADS guests at eight locations throughout Kendall County.

Many other county residents have found creative ways to help the homeless. Suzy’s Pizza of Yorkville has been donating “care bags” of food to PADS. The Fox Valley Flyers girls’ gymnastic team collected 138 items of cold-weather clothing. Salon Giovani in Plainfield donated coats, boots, scarves, gloves, mittens and sweatshirts.

In addition, Cub Scout Pack 348 of Oswego will be making and bringing cookies to the PADS site at St. Luke’s church this Saturday night. And 15-year-old Sydney Gonzales of St. Patrick Parish in Yorkville is heading up a drive for donations of “care kits” for PADS guests.

“As a group of caring and compassionate people, we continue to work as a team for our mission to provide shelter, food, and warm hospitality for our homeless guests,” Engelhardt said. “I am honored to be among the dedicated, loving leaders and volunteers.”

Seasonal Allergies Affecting Your Life?

Each year seasonal allergies continue to get worse. People who have never had allergies in the past are all of the sudden suffering from seasonal allergies. There are many common symptoms from allergies such as: runny nose, itchy eyes and throat, swollen eyes, fatigue…

What most people don’t know is that allergies lead to other (secondary) problems as well: sinus infections, pneumonia, chronic cough, upper respiratory infections, ear infections…

If the allergies can be stopped, then the secondary conditions… may never start. Do you have to change your lifestyle due to your allergies? Are you avoiding going outdoors during certain times of the year? Do your allergies dictate your social calendar?

Are allergies affecting your sleep? Are you tired of being sick?

Allergy testing and treatment may be your answer.

Seasonal allergy testing is traditionally performed with a “skin test.” This test puts a small amount of different allergens (such as ragweed, pollen, dust mites, grasses, etc.) in liquid form onto your skin and the doctor measures your skin reaction.

This is a painless 20 minute test that we perform in our office.

We test the 70 most common Midwest allergens.

Once you know what you are allergic to, you can now avoid that allergen. You can also receive treatment for the allergies through a desensitization process that will teach your body to stop reacting to the ragweed, grasses, trees, etc. There are two forms of treatment: Traditional allergy injections or Self-administered treatment in your home Farah Malik, MD provides both options for her patients. Most patients choose the self-administered treatment in their home as it is more convenient, less painful, and less expensive. Allergy testing and treatment is covered by most insurance companies (Medicaid excluded). Dr. Malik has been providing allergy treatment for more than 2 years and nearly every patient has responded well as evidenced by the results with repeat allergy skin testing and overall reduced allergy symptoms.

What are you waiting for? Call today to schedule your ALLERGY EVALUATION with Dr. Malik.

Tired of KNEE Pain… But Don’t Want Surgery?

DO YOU SUFFER FROM:

*Knee pain affecting daily activities? *Difficulty getting up from the floor? *Pain going up/down stairs? *Knee pain with jogging/running? *Knee pain getting up from a chair? *Popping/cracking sounds in your knee?

If you answered yes to any of the above questions, you could be suffering from knee arthritis. The CDC states that as of 2005, 26.9 million people suffer from knee osteoarthritis (OA) which typically begins after the age of 40 years old. OA in the knees can be very painful or just plain annoying at times.

Here’s the good news!

There is a simple in office procedure that can help to reduce the pain and dysfunction caused by knee OA. This simple procedure is extremely effective and covered by most insurance companies. With knee OA, there is less cushion between your bones. Our simple procedure injects a solution which increases the cushion between your bones. It’s really that

simple. The treatment protocol takes about 1 month and involves some therapy, knee supports, and injections (5 in total). As a qualified physician, I have been providing these injections for over 15 years. I continue to see successful treatments over and over again. There have been over 280 million injections performed worldwide giving me confidence in its safety and effectiveness. Call my office to schedule an evaluation to see if you are a candidate for this simple procedure. One of our most recent success stories comes from Chery.

She Says: “I came in with serious knee pain. I got a diagnosis on my first visit after an evaluation and x-rays.

Within a very short time after starting treatment, I was feeling better. I am very pleased with my results!” Chery

You don’t have to suffer anymore.

Call 630-553-2111 to schedule your evaluation today.

We accept most major medical insurances as well as Medicare.

last about a week, depending on conditions in the home. To have bloom over a longer timeframe, keep repeating the forcing process every few days. Consider using a variety of plants to create a colorful bloom show or mix with a bouquet of purchased cut flowers to provide height and texture changes in the arrangement using your woody branches.

Examples of shrubs and small ornamental flowering trees include Forsythia, Amelanchier, Flowering Almond, Bridal Wreath Spirea, and Flowering Crabapple. Fruit trees like peach and pear can also be forced to bloom.

A good tip is to wrap the branches with a moist towel to help soften the bud scales for a few days. Flower buds with begin to open anywhere from one week up to four weeks after the forcing begins. Crabapples and the fruit trees are good examples of ones that will take three to four weeks to force.

Plan to change out the water every couple of days especially if it becomes cloudy or develops bacteria. Tap water from the sink is still the best.

COUNTYWIDE | Kendall County Record • Oswego Ledger • Plano Record •

It is way too early to be doing anything outside to brighten our view from inside, yet you can bring some of that spring color inside by forcing blooms on a number of flowering shrubs and ornamental trees in your home landscape.

Early spring flowering shrubs produce their flower buds the summer before, and after enough winter weather, those flowers are ready to bloom.

It is the combination of warmer temperatures, the water provided and the stored energy in the branches that allow us to enjoy the blooms.

To get started, pick those shrubs you know bloom early in your yard and chose branches that have lots of flower buds. Flower buds are typically larger and plumper than leaf buds. Take those branches from the side or rear of the shrub so you still get a great bloom show when spring arrives.

Branches can be cut at any length, but those between six and 18 inches work best. The newer wood is likely to have more flower buds. If branches are taken while frozen, thaw them slowly in a cooler part of the home overnight before proceeding.

I always recommend clean cuts when pruning, but in this case crushing the branch ends will keep them from healing over and limiting water uptake.

Once that is done, place those branches in a bucket of warm water and place them where the temperatures are around 60 to 70 degrees.

On the floor, below a window, on an outside wall will work. Those branches will bloom without the direct sun.

In fact, warmer temperatures and direct sunlight will lessen the quality of the bloom and they won’t last as long either.

Indoors the blooms will often only

Dr. Berkey has been successfully treating back, neck, sciatica the ones that would usually have to be sent out for surgery. and herniated disc pain and related conditions for 7 years.

Sounds Too Good To Be True… Doesn’t It?

Here’s How To See If This Technology Can Help You For Free

Jason Provost came to our clinic with neck pain and numbness & tingling into his hands. He had tried chiropractic, physical therapy, and massage which used to help him in the past, but they were not helping him anymore. He wasn’t able to ride his mountain bike anymore without being in excruciating pain. He suffered for 3 years before he started our non-surgical spinal decompression treatment.

After 2 months of treatment, he was able to go to the Rocky Mountains and go mountain biking!

He sent this cell phone pic to me thanking me for helping him get his life back.

Cindy Brown had been suffering from bulging and herniated discs for 15 years. She said, “When I came to Dr. Berkey, I could barely walk due to constant pain. I was missing out on life as a mother and wife. I had to cancel our family vacation due to my pain. It was the worst pain I have ever had in my whole life. Childbirth was nothing compared to my back pain. I had been to two other chiropractors who treated me, but couldn’t help me. They both told me my only option was back surgery. I scheduled a qualifying consultation with Dr. Berkey and was accepted into his non-surgical spinal treatment program. After 10 weeks of treatment, I am completely pain free. I just got to go to Hawaii!! I highly recommend Advanced Physical Medicine of Yorkville.”

Darin Peterson said, “I have been a firefighter & paramedic for over 25 years. My back pain was getting progressively worse to the point that it was effecting my job and my personal life. Chiropractic care wasn’t helping me much anymore. I had severe low back pain and sciatica into my left leg. My left toes were numb. I came to Dr. Berkey’s clinic to see if the decompression treatment would help. He ordered an MRI of my low back and found a large disc herniation. I went through his decompression program and now have my life back. I can do anything and everything I want to do now.

After 2 weeks of treatment, I was 75% improved already. I highly recommend Advanced Physical Medicine of Yorkville.”

Kelly Michelson 630.551.1111

kelly@michelsonteam.com kellymichelson.bairdwarner.com My husband and I recently bought a home with Kelly and Josh Michelson. We loved them! They went above and beyond what I would have expected. I know I sent texts at 9pm on a Sunday and got an immediate response no matter what time of day it was. Either Kelly or Josh were always available to show us houses during the time and day we picked. There was never any waiting, we always asked Kelly a million questions and she was so nice and answered everything thoroughly. Kelly and Josh I feel like genuinely care about their clients. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else besides the Michelson team!

Beth David 815.325.3563

beth@michelsonteam.com bethdavid.bairdwarner.com Working with Beth David has made the process of selling my mother’s house so much easier for me and my family.

She was always forthcoming with answers to any questions we had. Beth’s skill was obvious as she dealt with the problems we encountered. She was very professional in her treatment of the buyers, agents and financial issues. I am very grateful that Beth David was with us every step of the way, and we reached a successful closing date . Thank you, thank you, Beth!

Patty Harbin 630-777-5861

patty@michelsonteam.com pattyharbin.bairdwarner.com There are many Realtors who can sell your home, but there are few who are true problem solvers. When problems arise, most Realtors have few resources at their disposal. With Patty Harbin, when problems arose, she didn’t throw up her hands. Instead she worked even harder to find the solution that we needed. We contacted Patty to enlist her to sell our home. Unfortunately, we learned that our home value would not support a sale or a refinance to lower our extremely high interest rate. However, Patty didn’t walk away from us even though there was no financial gain for her. She engaged several resources for us which enabled us to remain in the home we love! What more could you ask from a Realtor? We are customers for life.

Brenda Weaver 630.330.6195

brenda@michelsonteam.com brendaweaver.bairdwarner.com We are fortunate to have a new addition to the Michelson Team with Brenda Weaver joining us this year. She brings to the team a wealth of knowledge, experience, high integrity, & a caring heart!

Brenda helped me downsize from a 2,000 sq. ft. townhouse to a 1,000 sq. ft. apartment at a senior center. Brenda was extremely helpful leading up to everything. She was able to offer suggestions for staging my home to attract buyers, and made recommendations for agents to handle the estate sale. Brenda gave me peace of mind, and made the process easier. She knew her business yet she was very helpful and accepting and patient. It gave me the feeling of confidence that I could get through it. adno=0372620

St. Patrick Parish is open for visitors and pilgrims from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and during masses at 5 p.m. Saturday, and at 8 a.m., 10:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. Sunday. For details and directions to the parish, visit stpatrickyorkville.org or call 630-553-6671.

‘DamNation’ presentation set for March 10 SHAW MEDIA Has the conversation changed on the benefit of building or removing dams in our rivers and streams? The subject of dam removal and the role dams have played is the topic of the film presentation of “DamNation,” to be shown at 7 p.m. March 10 at the Montgomery Village Hall, 200 N. River St. The program is co-sponsored by The Conservation Foundation and the vil-

lage of Montgomery.

With discussions of dams and dam removal becoming more frequent, “DamNation” addresses the role dams play in local and national waterways.

Removal of every dam is not the goal, but informing communities about their local dams will help them decide if dam removal is the best option to improve the health of rivers and surrounding communities.

Steve Pescitelli, fisheries biologist from the Illinois Department of Natural

Resources, will also be present to lead a discussion about local streams and dams, and fish populations and habitat. The removal of several dams along the Fox River and its tributaries has resulted in noticeable improvements by allowing the river to flow freely, reducing the amount of algae and increasing healthy oxygen levels.

Everyone is welcome to this free program; reservations are not necessary. The film will be shown in the boardroom at the Village Hall.

Seeing bald eagles around Kendall County has become more common following a remarkable recovery nationwide.

Eagles and their amazing story will be the focus of the upcoming program, Bald Eagles: A Conservation Victory, at 1:30 p.m. Feb. 20 at the Little White School Museum in Oswego.

The program is jointly sponsored

by The Conservation Foundation, Oswegoland Heritage Association, and the Oswegoland Park District.

The program will be presented

by Drew Becker, Fish and Wildlife biologist with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Rock Island office.

He provides assistance to landowners and government entities on regulations issued under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. Cost is $5 and advance reservations can be made by calling 630554-1010. The Little White School Museum is at 72 Polk St., Oswego.

The Conservation Foundation is one of the region’s oldest and largest not-for-profit land and watershed conservation organizations.

Since it was founded in 1972, TCF has helped preserve nearly 33,000 acres of open space, restored and cleaned miles of rivers and streams, and educated thousands of kids by engaging them in nature and the outdoors.

Work is focused in DuPage, Kane, Kendall and Will counties.
