A Yorkville goal: keep small-town feel City Council receives update on new comprehensive plan

By DAN WAITT dwaitt@shawmedia.com While Yorkville residents have concerns about the condition of their streets and the status of unfinished subdivisions, they like

the small-town feel and want to see that continue as the city plans for development in the future.

Those are among the findings of the initial phase of the State of the City report, essentially the revised Comprehensive Plan for the

city’s land use.

The city is about halfway through the first revision of its comprehensive plan since 2008.

Justin Weidl of the Lakota Group presented an update on the State of the City report to the City Council.

“There is a lot of good information in there,” Mayor Gary Golinski said of the report.

The last time the plan was updated was seven years ago, at a

time of relatively high growth in the city in both residential and retail sectors before the recession slowed the market considerably.

“We’re in a very different market situation right now,” Weidl said.

Weidl said the aim of the comprehensive plan is to find a way to be strategic in a time of slower growth.

Phase 1 began with a series of interviews and listening sessions

that were conducted with various Yorkville groups, including city department heads, local business owners; developers; civic groups; School District 115; Kendall County; the Yorkville Bristol Sanitary District; the Kendall County Forest Preserve; the Illinois Department of Transportation, other governmental agencies and Yorkville residents.

The thousands of motorists that travel on U.S. Route 34 daily between Yorkville and Oswego should see construction barricades and orange cones go up next year as work to improve the highway begins, according to the Illinois Department of Transportation.

Crews are expected to start moving utility lines out of the highway right-of-way next spring, according to David Broviak, an IDOT engineer.

Contractors will then rebuild a 3.4-mile section of the two-lane highway to four lanes with curbs and gutters. In addition, a 10-foot-wide multi-use path will be installed along the highway from Marketplace Drive in Yorkville to O’Brien Way in Oswego.

Project plans also call for either the improvement of existing traffic signals or new traffic signals at the following intersections along the highway: McHugh Road, Countryside Parkway, Autumn Creek Boulevard and Bristol Ridge Road in Yorkville and O’Brien Way in Oswego, according to Craig Reed, an IDOT studies and plans project engineer.

Broviak confirmed that IDOT officials expect to seek contractor bids for the project by the end of this year.

However, he said he doesn’t yet know when the contract will be awarded.

“If it is a later [contract] letting they will usually start in the spring,” he said.

The project has a pre-bid estimated price tag of $31.5 million. Construction is expected to take a little over two years to complete, according to Broviak.

“Typically contractors bid it and they try to get things done earlier rather than later because of prices,” he said.

He added that utility work should finish up early next year with construction to start shortly thereafter.

IDOT officials have deemed the project necessary to keep up with the increasing number of motorists who use the highway.

Future Route 34 work in Yorkville subject of IDOT open house KENDALL COUNTY RECORD

Fox Valley Older Adult Services will close its DeKalb and Aurora facilities in October because of lack of state funding.

Senior services facing possibility of severe cuts Fox Valley Older Adult Services branches closing

By BRITTANY KEEPERMAN bkeeperman@shawmedia.com Sharon Schopfer received invaluable help from Fox Valley Older Adult Services from 2013 to 2014 as she cared for her husband, who suffers from Alzheimer’s disease.

With the agency preparing to close its doors in DeKalb and Aurora, she’s concerned that others in her situation will not have that support.

“The care that [clients] are given is just amazing,” she said. “They are remarkable to work with and to see it close is heartbreaking. ... The alternative would be to hire someone for in-home care, which is very costly.”

FVOAS is a nonprofit agency that provides adult day care and in-home services, community programs, breakfast and lunch services, and caregiver support groups from locations in DeKalb, Aurora and Sandwich. The agency’s service area includes Kendall County.

Agency officials said that unless legislators and Gov. Bruce Rauner can agree on a budget plan by Oct. 16, they plan to close their DeKalb and Aurora Adult Day Service facilities. If funding doesn’t come through from the state soon, agency officials said its main headquarters in Sandwich may shutter as well, but for now, will stay open because it is partially funded through other sources like private donors.

Schopfer, of Sycamore, said day-to-day care of a loved one with health problems can be overwhelming.

“It really wears you down. Your own heath is in jeopardy and breaks down because you are worrying and trying to take care of someone you love. It takes a toll.”

Schopfer’s husband now lives in a nursing home, but she still visits FVOAS to attend a caregiver support group twice-a-month, where she said she has found friendship

and ongoing support and insight from the eight to 14 other caregivers who attend.

“The support group we have is phenomenal,” she said. “Everyone in the room has a loved one in a different stage. We learn from each other, support each other and help each other cope with the situation.”

Cynthia Worsley, executive director of the agency, said that the lack of state funding because of the budget impasse has made it impossible for the center to continue. As much as 90 percent of the adult day service program is state-funded. On average, the agency has 18 adults who use the day care service and another 85 to 100 who participate in programming and activities.

In-home services will still be available, as the state is still funding those programs, which typically cover people who need the care rather than the agency that provides it, Worsley said.

“In the past, we’ve had fundraisers, and some clients who pay privately. We supplement that with the DeKalb County tax levy and the state would pay their part and we would be OK,” Worsley said. “But the problem is, the state can’t give us a date of when they can start paying, and we can’t support it all.”

The agency cited continued income loss and loss of financial support from its banking partner as other reasons to shutter the doors in media releases. On 2013 tax reports, the agency listed revenues of about $1.4 million with expenses of $1.3 million. In 2012, revenues were at about $1 million with expenses of $1.1 million.

If the facilities close their doors, they would be permanently changed and might not reopen any time soon, Worsley said.

“It’s really not possible to do it soon,” she said. “Certainly not in the foreseeable future. We may have some people interested, but we need to get through this emer-

gency first. … Even if it reopened, it wouldn’t be the same kind of day care as it is now.”

For now, the Sandwich location will remain open and FVOAS is working with the Voluntary Action Center to provide rides to the Sandwich facility for those in the soonto-closed DeKalb location.

Worsley and other supporters encouraged calls to state representatives, in hopes of ending the budget impasse and getting state funding back.

State Rep. Bob Pritchard, R-Hinckley, whose 70th District includes much of DeKalb County, called the impasse a terrible situation but added there weren’t any discussions going on in Springfield.

“The budget undoubtedly needs some cuts and additional revenue,” Pritchard, a Hinckley Republican, said. “... But this is what I’d call a labor-management gridlock. You need a third-party to break that, and I don’t know who that could be besides the voters of Illinois. I’d encourage citizens to start paying attention, because this is impacting the lives of people in the community.”

Carol Hajic, of DeKalb, said she is devastated by the thought of the agency closing. Her husband had stayed at the DeKalb facility for two years before moving into a nursing home. She now attends the support group for caregivers.

“It’s heartbreaking,” she said.

“That day center is so well-managed. It’s an asset to this community. They work very hard to accommodate people.”

Hajic said that if FVOAS hadn’t been around when her husband needed care, she didn’t know how she would have been able to cope.

“I would have had to put him in a nursing home a lot sooner,” she said. “Or pay the fee for in-home service because we had no longterm care insurance and that makes a big difference.”

Just when the barricades have come down on Route 47 in Yorkville, it’s time for a hearing on potential work on Route 34 on the city’s west side.

The Illinois Department of Transportation will conduct a public hearing Sept. 29 for a plan for reconstructing U.S. Route 34 from Eldamain Road to Center Parkway in Yorkville.

The hearing will be from 4 to 7 p.m. at the Yorkville Public Library meeting room at 902 Game Farm Road. While there will be no formal presentation, there will be an opportunity to view exhibits on display and provide comments on the proposed improvements.

Plans call for the road to be reconstructed to provide two lanes in each direction, with a two-way left turn median, curbs and gutters, storm sewers, sidewalks and a shared-use path.

The Blackberry Creek

bridge and the Rob Roy Creek culvert would be replaced.

Retaining walls would be constructed near Game Farm Road and noise barrier walls would be added near Game Farm Road and Diehl Farm Road.

The work would require additional right of way and easements in the area.

IDOT officials will be on hand to answer questions about the proposed project and its potential impacts, explain land acquisition procedures and receive public comments about the project.

The exhibits also will be on display for two weeks following the hearing at Yorkville City Hall.

The Phase I preliminary engineering study is expected to be completed this fall.

Construction is listed among IDOT’s proposed highway improvements for fiscal years 2016-21.

OUR VIEW

Politics a factor in canceled conference?

Earlier this month we received an email notice from the Kendall County Health Department that the agency planned to host a press conference Sept. 14 “to discuss how [the] state and federal budget impasse harms the vital public health services that are provided for all county residents.”

The notice continued, “The failure of the state in establishing a budget has a local impact on our community services. The continued failure to appropriate spending on these vital services hurts everyone, not just the poor, the sick and otherwise distressed. It hurts employers.

It hurts employees. It hurts our

youth, young adults and the elderly. Action must occur to ensure these community services are sustained.”

The notice also mentioned the health department provides a wide variety of services, including food inspections in local restaurants, addiction treatment, suicide and communicable disease surveillance, and energy conservation education.

We planned to send a reporter to the press conference so we could report back to you, our readers, how the current budget shenanigans in Springfield and Washington, D.C., are directly affecting the health department and its operations.

Unfortunately, the press conference was abruptly canceled just hours before it was scheduled to begin.

In announcing the cancellation, Dr. Amaal Tokars, the health department’s executive director, said in a prepared statement that “... due to concerns expressed regarding this public press conference, the press conference has been canceled.”

When contacted, Tokars declined to comment further on who was expressing concerns or the reason or reasons for the cancellation.

Jeff Wehrli, a Kendall County Board member who acts as the

board’s liaison to the health department, said he did not know why the press conference was called off.

We are concerned that political considerations may have factored into the decision to cancel the press conference.

If county health department officials were to publicly detail how the state budget impasse is adversely affecting their ability to provide vital services to county residents, it might cast state lawmakers from both parties in a negative light.

That in turn, could create hard feelings between the health department and lawmakers, the same folks who are responsible

for allocating state funds to the agency.

Under such circumstances, we could understand why county health department officials would be reticent about speaking up.

Even if politics were not a factor in the decision to cancel the press conference, we hope that our county officials and local state lawmakers would put the public good over any partisan political interests and encourage health department officials to hold their press conference so they can speak freely about how the state’s budget impasse is affecting the agency and county residents.

Time for putting by last of the summer produce REFLECTIONS Roger Matile In back of our house most years a woodchuck spends his (or possibly her – it’s hard to tell with woodchucks) days frantically gathering food. We see him hurrying away from his burrow and then rushing back again with a mouth full of greenery to be put by for the long winter months to follow.

Not too long ago, the area’s human residents behaved in much the same fashion – this time of the year was a season for putting things by in preparation for the coming of winter.

Back in the day, garden produce had been harvested right through the summer, of course.

Crops of radishes, lettuce and onions had either been eaten as they ripened or, in the case of onions, allowed to dry before being stored in mesh bags hung from the ceiling of the basement fruit cellar.

Canning was invented by another one of those inventive French fellows, Nicholas Appert, in 1804. But it took quite a while for the technology to filter down to be available for home use.

In the very early days of settlement, such garden crops as beans and peas were not canned, but were dried and stored in roughly woven bags to be used as ingredients for the soups and stews that were so much a part of the diets then.

I still have a large pewter charger that has been in the family for a couple of centuries. A cross between a large-diameter shallow bowl and a platter, the charger was filled (“charged”) with soup or stew and placed in the center of the table where everyone could help themselves to the food.

The pewter plates that originally went with the charger were melted down into musket balls, according to my grandmother. I don’t know if that’s a true tale or not, but it certainly made for a wonderful story when

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

Photo provided by the Little White School Museum

David Haight operated a vinegar works in the basement of his grocery and general store at the corner of Main and Washington streets in downtown Oswego. The vinegar works was one of several that operated in the village in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

I was growing up.

Beginning in the late 19th century, though, thanks to the advance of manufacturing technology, home canning using glass jars became economical.

So a variety of garden vegetables were canned to preserve them until needed.

Other vegetables, however, were not canned but were, instead, pickled.

Pickled food was very popular with my German family. Sauerkraut, in particular, was a favored way to preserve cabbage, while cucumbers were preserved by turning them into sweet and dill pickles and pickle relish.

Beets were likewise pickled for use as a side dish during winter meals.

Pickled food can be healthy, too. In the era before citrus fruit was easily available, it was discovered that sauerkraut would prevent scurvy.

Condiments were canned, potted, bottled or otherwise preserved as well. Horseradish, which most of my family craves, was grated and bottled.

My grandfather’s brother, Uncle Fred, was the family horseradish maker.

It is said he was relatively unaffected by the fumes as he happily grated the pungent roots, probably with visions of how it would taste on a nice slice of ham or a succulent pork hock.

Fruits were usually canned.

Peaches, pears, apples, apricots and cherries were picked in the farm orchard and then canned for use later on in pies and other such delicacies.

Apples were used for more than just pies, however. They could be canned with spices for use as a salad dish, and could also be dried for later use.

Apples were also ground up into applesauce and were squeezed

for cider.

In colonial days, cider was the national drink. The sweet cider of early fall quickly turned to the hard cider of early winter, making for a happy populace.

And with the right yeast, cider turned into vinegar, which was the basis for much of that pickling process so important for so many.

Because of their utility, in fact, apples were a cash crop for Kendall County farmers. One variety, the Minkler Apple, was bred right here in NaAuSay Township. In the fall, farmers picked their apple crops and hauled them to town by wagon, where they were squeezed into cider, which was then usually sold to one of the local vinegar works.

In Oswego, for instance, David Haight owned a grocery and general store with a vinegar works in the basement. The

Little White School Museum has one of Haight’s large stoneware vinegar jugs on display.

Root crops were not usually canned or otherwise processed.

Instead, after harvesting they were placed in layers in large containers, with each layer of vegetables separated by a layer of sand.

Potatoes, turnips, carrots, and other such crops were thus “put down” for the winter (as opposed to being “put up” in cans).

Apples, too, could be preserved for nearly the entire winter that way. The search was always on for an apple variety that was “a good keeper.”

By the time the first days of early winter arrived in Kendall County, farm families had fruit cellars full of food, with glass jars and bottles filling the shelves that lined the walls of the darkest room in the basement.

Fall’s provender joined the last of the canned meat that had been put by the previous year.

With the start of cold weather, the butchering cycle would soon begin to add more meat to the supply.

Starting in the early 1950s, many farm and town families began freezing fruits and vegetables instead of canning them.

One year for Christmas, my grandfather bought my mother, her sister, and her brother International Harvester deep freezes, each of which was roughly the size of a Volkswagen, and from then on, sweet corn, and many other vegetables were frozen, not canned.

Nowadays, we go to the supermarket and buy virtually all our food, and it tastes OK. But more and more I remember how my grandmother replied one time when I asked her if she’d like to go back in time to her youth.

“Maybe – for a meal,” she said after a slight hesitation. As I think of the foods of my childhood, I more and more see her point.

FORUM Fox Valley Older Adult Services needs your help

To the Editor: This may come as a shock to some readers, but Fox Valley Older Adult Services (FVOAS) will be closing its doors very shortly. Due to the state’s financial issues, FVOAS has not been paid any funds since late June. FVOAS has currently no money for payroll or operating expenses thanks to the financial crisis in Springfield.

The closing of this beloved community center means that 250plus seniors will no longer receive in-home care. This puts them at risk for having no choice but to go into a nursing home. It also means that our many seniors and developmentally impaired friends and neighbors have nowhere to go for an affordable hot meal, day activities or fellowship.

It also means 125 of our local aides and workers will lose their jobs, too.

The state of Illinois owes FVOAS over $300,000. State Sen. Tim Bivins was recently at our facility and praised us for the fine work that we do. He then went back to Springfield and voted against SB2046, which would have provided the funding for senior programs all over the state.

Our banking partner in town during these nearly impossible circumstances has been Heartland Bank.

They have been wonderful to work with and we appreciate them so much. Regretfully our line of credit has been exhausted and they will no longer extend us operating funds while we wait for the state to pay us. We certainly understand their position from a business standpoint.

At this juncture, the situation we find ourselves in goes beyond business considerations. We are in a local humanitarian crisis. We are asking our wonderful partners at Heartland Bank to work with us so we can remain open another 90 days. We are confident that we will have repayment funds by then and the bank will be paid back.

Please call Sen. Bivins’ office, 815-284-0045, and ask him why he chose to vote against funding after just visiting our facility, offering us great praise but then cutting us off at the knees. Please also call our local Heartland Bank branch in Sandwich, 815-786-2115, and ask them to keep us open for the next 90 days until we can get paid. And while you have your phone handy, please call Sen. Bivins’ office and ask him to call Heartland Bank to request emergency funding for 90 days.

We love our small town of Sandwich and the surrounding communities. Let us show our dedication to the most vulnerable among us by doing everything we can to keep FVOAS open. This is our greatest crisis in our nearly 43-year-old existence.

Thank you, Alexander Edwards Executive Board Member Fox Valley Older Adults Sandwich

Trust Americans to plan for retirement

To the Editor: Here’s a startling statistic: Almost 40 million households haven’t saved anything for retirement. So why is

Thursday, September 24, 2015 Kendall County Record • Page 5

the president pushing a new regulation that would put up obstacles for Americans to obtain retirement advice? Does he distrust Americans enough to restrict them from investing in stable, sound financial products?

Picture this: Beth Ann, age 62 and nearing retirement, wants to manage her financial future by rolling over her 401K plan into an Individual Retirement Account she controls.

But when she visits her long-time financial adviser, she hits a wall: the Department of Labor has stepped in between her and her trusted adviser who has provided her reliable service for years.

For whatever reason, the president doesn’t know or care what these new rules will mean for Main Street investors who need retirement advice the most. Customers like Beth Ann could become too expensive for her adviser to serve. Ironically, breaking this trusted relationship leaves her worse-off when she is left to navigate the complex market on her own.

That’s why I am fighting in Congress to make sure Beth Ann and millions like her have access to the retirement advice they want and need.

In July, I led my colleagues in sending two letters to urge the DOL to change course. Nine members of the president’s party in Congress are waking up and have filed similar concerns of the need to protect choice for their constituents.

Additionally, I support the Retail Investor Protection Act, which takes the administration’s special interests out of the process and ensure an independent regulator with better knowledge of the situation – the SEC – would take the lead.

Americans want the choice to get help from trusted experts when planning for the future. Let’s again start trusting Americans to make wise decisions about their own lives.

McDonald’s egg pledge a small step

To the Editor: McDonald’s pledge last week to start using cage-free eggs is only a small step in preventing staggering suffering endured by millions of birds.

Hatcheries that annually supply 200 million female hens for U.S. egg production, including cage-free, also kill the same number of male chicks at birth by grinding them up alive in industrial macerators or suffocating them slowly in plastic garbage bags. The female laying hens endure a lifetime of misery, crammed with 5-6 others, in small wire-mesh cages that cut into their feet and tear out their feathers.

Eggs are common carriers of foodborne bacteria, including salmonella, campylobacter, listeria, and staphylococcus. USDA estimates that salmonella alone accounts for 1.3 million U.S. illnesses and 500 deaths annually.

Eggs contain saturated fat and cholesterol, key factors in incidence of heart disease, stroke, cancer and diabetes. They are a common cause of allergies in children.

Waste from millions of egg-lay-

No gruel for you

To the Editor: Our federal representative, Randy Hultgren, R-Plano, has been staying up nightly crafting many bills to protect children. His current bill, HR 3134, Defund Planned Parenthood Act of 2015, shows his love of unborn children. He added his name to HR 3504, the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act and to HR 671, Investigate Planned Parenthood. He also fiercely supports bills stopping Planned Parenthood from using federal money for abortions, even though the Hyde Amendment prohibits that already.

This all comes about because he watched the highly creative video of a day in the life of a physician at Planned Parenthood and how gruesome she could be. So now he is on board with saving the unborn and closing that horrible organization. But wait, he had an epiphany.

He figured out that these unborn children he will be saving by closing down Planned Parenthood will need some help.

He set out to work on a bill to increase aid to all children and their parents. Randy read that over 20 percent of today’s children live below the poverty level and he felt terrible. So in the bill he plans to increase the funding for education from 2 percent of the federal budget to 4 percent. He is on board with Bernie Sander’s idea of free college education for all kids.

These kids have to eat better, so he is increasing spending for SNAP (food stamps) because at $3 a day you can’t feed kids a Happy Meal and expect them to perform well.

There will be increases in the earned income tax credit, school lunch programs, housing assistance for low

income families, heat subsidies and a huge increase in Medicaid spending so his idea of sending women to the federally qualified health centers will become a reality.

The reason Planned Parenthood exists is because they can function on what Medicaid pays for their bills plus the half billion the government gives them. This will all be paid for by reducing the defense budget by $100 billion plus a small increase in the tax rate for high-earning Republicans.

Randy is going to sleep better at night because of this bill. But he awoke in a cold sweat fearing he actually crafted this bill. The Republican Party would be outraged. It’s everything they can do just saving the unborn. The kids, he said, would have to fend for themselves. Sorry Oliver, no gruel for you.

During a football game the other day, a bunch of kids from the robotics club turned the school’s scoreboard into a big clock. The president of the club was to be interviewed on TV for his team’s creativity but he was unable to be present. The principal had him arrested for making a fake bomb out of the scoreboard. The President tweeted, “Nice try though, we already have enough clock makers coming to the White House.”

Ed Washak Yorkville

To the Editor: A week ago Monday, Sept. 14, the Chicago Tribune reported that a CNN/ORC poll had found that 43 percent of Republicans think that President Obama is a Muslim. How this could be is a mystery to me since the man himself claims to be Christian. Those 43 percenters might want to check out some of the transcripts from several of the National Prayer Breakfasts or Easter Breakfasts the president has spoken at over the years, which can be easily found online.

Try for starters the “Remarks by the President at the 2014 National Prayer Breakfast” in which he speaks of his own spiritual journey: “In my life, He (God) directed my path to Chicago and my work with churches who were intent on breaking the cycle of poverty in hard-hit communities there. And I’m grateful not only because I was broke and the church fed me but because it led me to everything else. It led me to embrace Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior.”

Then read the remarks he made at the 2012 Prayer Breakfast. If it were a crime to be a Christian, I believe President Obama could be convicted; there is no dearth of evidence.

I’m curious as to who is claiming he is a Muslim and why. There appears to be some kind of racial and/or religious bias here somewhere. If only it were possible, I think a very interesting social science experiment would be to drop conservative Republicanwho-claims-to-be-a-Christian Dr. Ben Carson into Obama’s place and poll that same 43 percent on their beliefs about him. Would he be believed?

And why or why not?

Interestingly, presidential candidate Carson seems to think that a Muslim is not qualified for the position he himself is aspiring to. Does this not appear to be a rather un-American viewpoint? Since the First Amendment does state that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof ...”

A healthy democracy is dependent upon educated voters who are interested in what the truth is, however inconvenient. None of us has a monopoly on the truth, especially when it comes to religion. Personally, I find it very hard to forgive willful ignorance.

There isn’t. The stop sign is, and has been, on Rogers Road.

In the Route 52 report, it states the driver failed to yield to the truck, allowing the reader to pursue the thought that the truck was somehow responsible. In the Millington Road case, the Millington Road driver was found under the influence but also ticketed for failure to reduce speed.

When have you ever traveled a through road, like Route 52 or

Millington Road, and felt you had to reduce speed at every intersection so you might avoid a ticket if the person pulled out? The roads are both posted with 55 mph speeds.

Yes, we need to practice defensive driving. I will look with suspicion at drivers crossing a through road on which I’m traveling. I let up on my gas pedal, but the responsibility and privilege of driving seems to be continually challenged by those who do not heed stop signs.

In these days of so much “correctness” to our language, it would be more enlightening if the paper would reconsider and write items in an accurate fashion without misleading the reader. Please stick to facts the reader can understand instead of opinions that lead us to wrong conclusions.

Preschool program yearly tuition going up $100 KENDALL COUNTY RECORD The Kendall County Forest Preserve District Board voted last week to increase the yearly tuition for both the agency’s two-day and three-day Natural Beginnings preschool program by $100.

As approved by the board, the current yearly tuition for the two-

day program will increase from $1,325 to $1,425, while the cost for the three-day program will increase from $1,625 to $1,725.

In addition, the board approved increasing a nonrefundable registration fee for the program from $50 to $150.

Stop signs on Rt. 126 to be removed

By MATT SCHURY mschury@kendallcountynow.com T h e I l l i n o i s D e p a r tment of Transportation has awarded a contract to a firm to take down the stop signs on Ill. Route 126 at Old Ridge Road in NaAuSay Township south of Oswego, but engineers for the agency say they don’t know when the company will begin work.

Dave Broviak, studies and plans engineer for IDOT, said the project, which includes grinding down the pavement at the intersection and removing a flashing warning light, was awarded Aug. 19 to Lorusso Cement Contractor Inc. There are 15 working days left in the construction season this year so Broviak said it will “more than likely be completed this year.”

However, Craig Reed, an IDOT engineer, said the company has not given IDOT a firm start date.

“We have not gotten the schedule from the contractor. We’re not sure when that actual work will begin,” Reed said.

The work will include lowering the pavement to improve the sight distance for drivers. The bulk of the road work is milling the pavement eight to nine inch-

Wheeler Road and Route 126 remains open to local traffic since there are 20 homes along it, but the road deadends.

According to IDOT, the volume of traffic on Ridge Road is about 150 vehicles per day compared to about 6,500 vehicles that travel on Route 126, according to Broviak, which does not warrant a four-way stop.

Yorkville leaders debate future in tourism group

By DAN WAITT dwaitt@shawmedia.com

tourism organizations are generally not available to individual cities.

Mayor Gary Golinski asked aldermen to consider the issue and be prepared to make a decision at the Oct. 13 City Council meeting.

Alderman Diane Teeling asked if there might be opportunities to join with other neighboring communities through the Shared Services Agreement that the city recently approved along with the villages of Oswego and Montgomery.

Olson said that while tourism is not one of the areas currently in the scope of the agreement, they could take a look at it.

Colosimo said another of his concerns was that a photo in the AACVB guide of one of Yorkville’s hotels was taken on a dark, cloudy day, while other area hotels appear in pictures on sunny days.

“Take a look at the guide and nitpick it,” he said.

Interoperability training for Oswego and Montgomery police and Kendall County sheriff’s personnel was conducted at a firearm training range Sept. 3 and 10.

Police conduct joint training Officers from the Oswego and Montgomery police departments and the Kendall County Sheriff’s Office trained together at a firearm training range Sept. 3 and Sept. 10.

Oswego police said the primary purpose of the training was to expose neighboring agencies to the department’s system for responding to high-risk, low-frequency operations with regard to the most efficient, prac-

tical and systematic method of responding to calls in a way that can save lives.

These shared tactics will enhance effectiveness responding to threats such as active shooters, officer/civilian down recovery as well as the deployment, planning and overall actions of responding officers, according to police.

Some city leaders here are ready to check out of the Aurora Area Convention & Visitors Bureau.

“I just don’t feel like we are getting our bang for the buck,” Alderman Carlo Colosimo told the Yorkville City Council on Tuesday.

Council members discussed some concerns about renewing an agreement to be part of the multi-community tourism bureau. The city sends some $50,000 in hotel tax revenues to the organization annually, making it among the larger of the area supporters for the group.

The city is facing an October deadline on whether to continue with the tourism promotion consortium, of which it has been part for several years.

While some aldermen are willing to give the organization another year, others appear ready to leave now.

“I am a proponent of trying it in-house,” Colosimo said.

He said that if the city were to determine that it was too difficult to do it, they could likely return to the bureau – along with their $50,000 in revenue.

In addition to serving the city of Aurora, other members of the AACVB include Batavia, Big Rock, Hinckley, North Aurora, Montgomery, Sandwich, Sugar Grove and Plano.

Oswego formerly was in the group but dropped out several years ago.

Aldermen expressed concerns that an advertisement purchased by Oswego recently appeared in one of the bureau’s publications.

Colosimo noted that some of the communities do not contribute monetarily to the group, but still get exposure in the AACVB’s publications.

The council’s discussion comes about a month after the city heard an update from the AACVB’s new executive director, Cort Carlson.

Carlson, who has been executive director since May, told the council that tourism is up nearly five percent from 2013 to 2014 across nearly all sectors. “As a region, the Aurora area is doing very well,” he had said.

Hotel occupancy rates are a good indicator of how well tourism is doing, Carlson said.

Based on what he called conservative estimates, the Aurora area group sees on average about 700 visitors to area hotels per night.

Alderman Jackie Milschewski said this has been a recurrent issue during her time on the council and before that when she was city clerk.

“This has been going on for years,” she said.

Others indicated a willingness to stay in for another year.

“I prefer to have a plan in place before we pull out,” Alderman Larry Kot said.

Alderman Joel Frieders said he has seen positive changes with the addition of the new executive director and that local hotel owners have expressed support for continuing in the organization.

“Let’s give it a shot for a year,” Frieders said.

Frieders also said it is difficult to quantify how much the city might get in terms of generating tourism dollars. “What is our measure of ‘this is not working out for us?’”

However, Frieders admitted that he has had concerns with outdated Yorkville events continuing to appear on the AACVB website.

Yorkville resident speaks at Aurora University memorial service

County to oversee subdivision improvements

By MATT SCHURY mschury@kendallcountynow.com

Yorkville’s Maggie Hackett was among three Aurora University students who offered personal perspectives at a 9/11 memorial service in Crimi Auditorium on Friday, Sept. 11. Hackett explored how the events of 9/11 affected other countries.

Kendall County will be in charge of completing public improvements for the Tanglewood Trails subdivision, but won’t be on the hook for paying for it.

The subdivision’s original developer, Tanglewood Trails LLC, was foreclosed in 2011 and the lender, Benchmark Bank of Aurora, was purchased by the FDIC in 2009.

The subdivision is located south of Legion Road along East Highpoint Road near Yorkville. Only four homes have been built in the subdivision out of the 40 that were originally platted, according to Jeff Wilkins, the county’s administrator.

“It’s one of those subdivisions that we are now having to clean up following the [housing] bust cycle,” board

member Scott Gryder explained.

The county board approved a contract Sept. 15 with the new developer, BCB Development, and the Tanglewood Trails Homeowners Association.

The board unanimously voted to have Chairman John Shaw sign the contract. However, board member Bob Davidson abstained from voting and board member Elizabeth Flowers was absent.

Wilkins said that the public improvements will mainly include road improvements and a stormwater collection system.

“The upshot is that the new developer, which is really a holding company … that acquired the subdivision lots through the FDIC after the previous banks had gone under, is now offering the county $85,000 to finish the improvements that weren’t completed in that subdivision,” Wilkins said.

The money the county is receiving also gives the county board the authority to determine the improvements and the timing of the projects, Wilkins said, adding that there is an indemnity clause for the county in the contract.

Fran Klaas, the county’s highway engineer, has met with the Kendall Township Road Commissioner to look at some of the items that weren’t completed. The township has a list of items that they want to see done, and the township highway district would take over the maintenance of the infrastructure once it is complete, Klaas said.

The work will finally close out the subdivision, Wilkins said. The original developer, Tanglewood Trails LLC, entered into an annexation agreement in 2004 with Yorkville that was passed but never went into effect because the property is not contiguous with the city limits.

GOLF RECAP

TENNIS RECAP

Yorkville boys shoot season low, Yorkville squad getting better Foxes snap take second place at Minooka Girls continue winning streak CHRISTINE BOLIN DASCHER cbolin@kendallcountynow.com On Monday, the Yorkville boys golf team shot a season-best 321 at the Minooka Invite at Heritage Bluffs Golf Course in Channahon. The Foxes ended up in second place behind the host-Indians, who scored a 310.

Yorkville’s Alex Burks shot a 77, which placed him second overall. Aidan Miragliotta posted the Foxes’ next best score, a 79, which was good enough for sixth place. Ty Amwoza posted an 82 and AJ Gorey shot an 83.

“Minooka was very exciting - finally, we showed what we an actually do,” Yorkville head coach Tyler Bantz said. “We finally put four scores together. This is where we should have been all year.”

Prior to the Minooka Invite, the Foxes lost backto-back duals. On Sept. 16, Kaneland won, 157-176, in

Northern Illinois Big 12 Conference action. Amwoza led the Foxes with a 39, followed by Chase Lewey (45), Burks (46) and Gorey (46).

The Foxes dropped to 3-5 overall in dual meets last Thursday after Oswego East defeated them, 161-173, in non-conference action. Eric Biegalski led Yorkville with a 39, Amwoza shot a 42 and both Lewey and Burks posted a score of 46 each.

Yorkville is 0-1 in the conference and will take on three league opponents this week - DeKalb, Sycamore and Morris - before the final non-conference dual of the season against Oswego.

The conference meet is scheduled for Sept. 30.

Yorkville was also placed in the Class 3A Oswego Regional, which will take place on Oct. 6 at its home course, Blackberry Oaks.

Girls Golf: The Foxes (193) won a tri-meet with West Aurora (206) and Dwight (243) on Sept. 15. Louisa Washburn was the medalist at the meet scoring a 42. Serena Stewart shot a 45.

Yorkville then improved to 7-1 overall in duals with

a 194-213 victory over Plainfield Central at Wedgewood Golf Course last Thursday.

Washburn led the Foxes again with her 43.

Stewart was second overall with a 46 and Alex Betzweiser shot a personal-best score this season of 49 to tie Plainfield Central’s Heather Bush for third place. Kendall Haug also was in the top four for the Foxes with a 56.

“Honestly, 7-1 is where I expected them to be,” Bantz said. “The only loss was to Plano (which is still undefeated), and that was a good, competitive loss. They’ve been shooting in the 190s hopefully, we’ll get down to the 180s.”

Monday’s tri-meet with Geneseo and Hinckley-Big Rock did not finish due to darkness. Next up on the schedule for Yorkville is the Northern Illinois Big 12 Conference meet Tuesday.

After that, the Foxes will be a part of the Class AA Waubonsie Valley Regional at Springbrook Golf Course in Aurora on Oct. 7. That will feed into the Neuqua Valley Sectional on Oct. 12 at Naperbrook Golf Course.

that were better than us, and we had to work on consistency and position. We are all still trying to figure things out, but hopefully, we are on the rise.”

Against Rochelle, Yorkville’s winners were Bella Perez (6-2, 6-0) and Bri Pickering (6-1, 6-0) in singles and Dakota Kinsella/ Sam Keane, Gabi Ornalas/ Ashley Monroy and Amanda Stabile/Anna Halsey in doubles. Against Coal City, Pickering (8-0) and Kelly Garner (8-1) won in singles for the Foxes while Ornalas/Monroy (8-1) and Richa Patel/Michelle Zubek (8-2) posted wins in doubles.

The Foxes then held their annual Doubles Invite on Saturday, which Sycamore won with 133. Kaneland was second at 118, followed by Yorkville (112) and Aurora Central Catholic (55). The Foxes saw three doubles teams – Perez/Pickering, Kinsella/Keane and Sophie Mohr/Mackenzie Simmons

losing streak CHRISTINE BOLIN DASCHER cbolin@kendallcountynow.com

The Yorkville girls tennis team broke a six-match losing streak with its first shutout of the season on Sept. 16 against Rochelle.

The Foxes earned their third victory in dual action with the 5-0 win against Rochelle. They made it two in a row with the 4-3 defeat over Coal City last Thursday and three straight with Monday’s win over DeKalb.

Yorkville is now 5-6 overall in duals and 1-1 in the Northern Illinois Big 12 Conference.

“We just weren’t getting any wins in doubles – even when they’d go three, they’d lose,” Yorkville head coach Frank Yabsley said.

“We played a lot of teams

– place second while Ornalas/Monroy and Stabile/ Halsey each went third.

“We played well, even though it was so early in the morning,” Yabsley said.

“We changed some things up and the girls were ready to play. They were focused, didn’t complain about the rain delays and were glad to be there.”

The sixth straight loss happened on Sept. 19, when Sycamore won, 5-0, in league action. Against DeKalb in the first conference win of the year, Yorkville won, 3-2. Winners for the Foxes include Pickering at No. 2 singles (3-6, 6-2, 6-2), Garner at No. 3 singles (6-4, 6-1) and Ornalas/ Monroy at (4-6, 7-6, 6-4) at No. 3 doubles.

“DeKalb has all seniors back, so the win was kind of surprising,” Yabsley said.

The Foxes’ next three outings are against Morris, Aurora Central Catholic and Rosary.

Robertsen’s heroics. He snagged a 25-yard touchdown pass with 3:23 left in the first quarter, which just set the stage for his biggest play of the game. Robertsen later snagged a pass from quarterback Jake Marczuk and turned it into a 56-yard touchdown with 9:53 left in the second quarter for a 14-0 lead.

The game was postponed until Saturday night because of the weather, but shortly after resuming the Foxes pounced on the break, getting a 12-yard touchdown pass from Cameron Van

Boekel to Frank Pisano to pull Yorkville to within 14-7.

“I thought we did nice job of punching that one in there but it wasn’t enough,” Yorkville coach Dan McGuire said. “We didn’t convert a key fourth down that hurt us, but give credit to Kaneland. They stopped us.”

Kaneland didn’t pull away immediately, but when it did, it chose a grand fashion of doing so.

Marczuk’s 30-yard touchdown pass to senior Isaiah Baerenklau with 3:40 remaining in the third quarter finally gave the Knights

some breathing room.

An 11-yard bootleg score from Marczuk with 7:30 left in the fourth quarter all but sealed the victory for the Knights, while Jonathan Alstott’s 11-yard touchdown run with 2:22 remaining in the fourth quarter completed the scoring.

“I feel like we played really good and finally played a complete game,” Kaneland coach Tom Fedderly said.

“It was the complete game we had been trying to play and I don’t know until now if we had played one so I was really happy.”

Yorkville moved the ball well at times, predominantly thanks to Bryce Shewan, who earned 145 yards on 27 carries, but the Knights never let him break through.

Marczuk rushed for 108 yards for the winners while Robertsen caught a season-high seven catches for 119 yards.

Yorkville returns to Campbell Field on Friday to host Morris (3-1) at 7:15 p.m. The Redskins come into the Week 5 contest on a two-game win streak, most recently defeating Sterling 38-21.

BOYS SOCCER: YORKVILLE 7, MORRIS 3

Yorkville soccer splits a pair of conference contests

By CHRISTINE BOLIN DASCHER cbolin@kendallcountynow.com The Yorkville boys soccer team got over its first Northern Illinois Big 12 Conference loss to Sycamore right away with a big 7-3 victory at Morris last Thursday.

“This game was a big step for us, and I was extremely proud of the teamwork that was displayed from start to finish,” said Yorkville head coach Andrew Johnson, whose Foxes improved to 6-4 overall and 2-1 in the conference going into games this week

against Kaneland and LaSalle-Peru.

“It’s great when you see a group of players all firing on high cylinders trying to execute a game plan, yet knowing when to be creative and try new things. “ Yorkville held a 4-1 advantage over Morris at halftime. Bobby Reichert scored twice (on assists from Nick Arcara and David Cervantes. Matt Sutkay tallied the first goal for the Foxes on an assist from Bailey Kish before Gil Alegria scored the second (assist Jackson Torok) with 25 minutes

left in the first half.

Alegria (assist Wyatt McKibbon) scored the first goal for the Foxes in the second half. Kish tallied on a penalty kick before Jeremy Schwarz (assist Kish) with 9:45 left in the game.

Yorkville’s new changes in the lineup apparently worked against the Redskins.

“There were four new starters into the lineup and several offensive players were moved to the back line,” Johnson said. “Ball movement was constant and offensive opportunities were cre-

ative. The defensive line changed players and formations a few times tonight and guys adjusted well. There are still several seams and gaps that need to get fixed, but an overall solid team performance. The guys are not completely bought in at this point, but I think we are getting closer.

“We are a deep team, and the mistake I made was rotating guys too often, as opposed to making sure playing time was completely earned.

“Because our guys now know

PREP CROSS COUNTRY PREVIEW

Palatine to be true test of champions Elite invite offers best challenge before state meet

By KRISTIN SHARP ksharp@kendallcountynow.com The toughest test of the cross country schedule arrives Saturday at Palatine’s Meet of Champions.

In 2014, the Yorkville girls took a runner-up finish behind Palatine, while the boys broke a tie for fourth place in a field of more than 30 teams. Palatine went on to take second in the Class 3A girls state race while Yorkville swept the Class 2A trophies.

Yorkville will return to Deer Grove East Forest Preserve to once again try and keep pace with the top teams in Illinois.

“It’s going to be a dog fight for sure and one that we have to go all out for. We can’t look ahead to any meets but focus on this meet,” Yorkville head coach Chris Muth said.

Postseason assignments were released by the IHSA on Friday, with a notable change to Yorkville’s path to Detweiller Park for the state meet. After winning the northern sectional at Kaneland last year, Yorkville was moved into the Wheaton Academy Sectional next month, and will host a 10-team regional race at Bristol Bay City Park on Oct. 24.

Minooka Flight Invite: One week after the Yorkville girls’ cross country team ran a 23-second split

Steven Buyansky for Shaw Media

Yorkville’s Cody Hornyak (right) passes Lincoln-Way North’s Kyle Bechtold through the flooded grass during Saturday morning’s Minooka Flight Invite after heavy rain fell one day earlier. in Peoria, the Foxes were challenged to put team racing aside at the Minooka Flight Invite.

Runners are split into seven independent races, and points awarded by individual places to make up the team score. Minooka won its own invite with 17 points, followed by Batavia (26), Lyons

Twp. (26) and Yorkville (28) in the top four of the 16-team field.

Yorkville scored 13 points in the first six races, but Julia Schultz went down with a sprained ankle in Flight 7 and did not finish the race, giving Yorkville 15 points. Schultz is expected to return to the starting line soon.

“The flight system is an interesting meet because in a typical meet you only score five. In this particular case, Julia sprained her ankle in the first 800 meters and we pulled her from the race, meaning you automatically score the lowest points,” Muth said.

“It’s not really a clear indicator

of an actual team score, but on the other side it’s interesting to manipulate your lineup a bit and put them in a little bit of an uncomfortable situation and see if they can rise up to the occasion. I think that’s what happened with a few of our freshmen.”

Freshman Nicole Greyer raced in Flight 1 and finished fourth in 17:57 while freshman Olivia Borowiak was third in Flight 2 with a time of 18:19. Senior Summer Pierson took a runner-up finish in Flight 3 with a time of 18:24 and sophomore Alyssa Edwards finished second in Flight 4 in 18:38.

Junior Alexis Grandys won Flight 5 with a time of 18:13 and junior Maddie Dearborn clocked in a time of 18:35 to win Flight 6.

The Yorkville boys’ team finished third with 27 points behind Hoffman Estates (17) and Downers Grove North (26). Senior Trevor Wills was eighth in the top flight with a time of 16:02 and sophomore Zack Price finished fourth in Flight 2 (16:05), senior Thor Hester took fourth in Flight 3 (16:06) and senior Cody Hornyak took fourth in Flight 4 (16:04). Junior Alexx Nauman placed second in Flight 5 (16:22), sophomore Patrick Black took third in Flight 6 (16:37) and senior Jake Firrantello was the runner-up in Flight 7 (16:30).

“It was another weekend where we’re waiting for the boys to break out and we’re hoping it happens soon. They continue to practice really hard and we’re waiting for the transition to happen,” Muth said. “They’re a good team, but they still have another level to reach.”

GIRLS VOLLEYBALL: YORKVILLE 2, DeKALB 0 (25-19, 25-23)

Yorkville on the attack in conference opener Fast start leads to 2-0 sweep over DeKalb

By KRISTIN SHARP ksharp@kendallcountynow.com The Yorkville girls’ volleyball team took visiting DeKalb on a wild ride before clinching a win in the Foxes’ Northern Illinois Big 12 Conference opener last Thursday.

The Barbs (4-6, 0-2 NIB12) overcame a poor start to hold a late Game 2 lead over the Foxes, but Yorkville rallied from a 21-19 deficit to win the match, 25-19, 25-23.

“We’re kind of a roller coaster ride, to stay the least,” Yorkville head coach Mike Dunn said. “I thought we did some good things, but we’re just trying to build consistency; that’s been the

story of our season. There’s times when we can play with anyone in the state and times when we’re very average. I like the way the girls found a way to close out. Give DeKalb credit; they were very scrappy. They made some adjustments.”

Yorkville (10-5, 1-0 NIB12) opened the night on an 8-0 run before DeKalb found its swing. A pair of kills from senior Chelsey Ellen and three points from senior Jordan Albarran contributed to the fast start before the Barbs cut the Foxes’ lead to four, 16-12, midway through the game. Albarran (9 kills) scored three late points, Ellen recorded a serve and Yorkville ended the game when senior Abby Guddendorf set up an attack from sophomore Jenna Fosnacht (4 kills) on match point.

“Our energy level is so big, especially when there’s a crowd like tonight,” Albarran said. “We definitely feed

off of that. We knocked the ball down and built up 8-0.”

DeKalb was better prepared in Game 2 and took an early lead, 8-7. Albarran and Fosnacht knocked down kills before Katie Nolan’s well-timed tip kill cut DeKalb’s lead to one, 13-12. A DeKalb error tied the scoreboard at 14, but the Barbs forged ahead to lead 18-16.

“I think we jumped them pretty good in the first game and then we got comfortable and you can’t do that in volleyball because it’s such a momentum sport,” Dunn said. “We have to get better in regards to being more consistent, mentally tough and a more disciplined volleyball team.”

Yorkville senior Erica Cyko had a successful tipped ball and Nolan followed with a kill to lock the score at 19.

Several late Yorkville errors helped DeKalb lead by two before Nolan (8 kills) sparked a 4-0 run to give the

Yorkville’s Chelsey Ellen (7) and Katie Nolan (16) attempt to block DeKalb’s Devyn Johnson’s shot during Tuesday’s Northern Illinois Big 12 Conference game at Yorkville.

Foxes the 23-21 edge. Nolan’s final kill ended the night to give Yorkville the complete two-game sweep.

“We know we’re a talented group. No team is going to give us anything, so when you start out slow it hurts us,” DeKalb head coach Kyle Milborn said. “When you have two players that can terminate the ball like (Albarran and Nolan) can, you just have to focus on taking as

much space away,” Milborn said. “That’s what we tried to do. It wasn’t necessarily successful, but they fought hard coming back from 10 down in the first set.”

Yorkville enters a road stretch that will take the Foxes to Sycamore and Morris before the Oswego East Tournament on Saturday.

The Foxes return home next Tuesday to face defending co-conference champion

Kaneland.

“Coming into conference, we need to look out for Morris and Kaneland and hopefully knock out DeKalb a second time,” Albarran said.

Naperville North 2, Yorkville 0: On Sept. 15, Yorkville fell

25-15, 27-25 in non-conference play. Junior Lindsay Loquercio had eight kills to lead the Foxes’ attack while Albarran finished with five kills, one ace and one block.

A small bird watches (at left) as a wild turkey walks in the grass near the intersection of Routes 71 and 47 in Yorkville last spring. Wild turkey sightings have become increasingly common in Kendall County in recent years.

The return of the turkey

Big birds find welcoming home along Fox River and even highways

By MATT SCHURY mschury@kendallcountynow.com Over the last few months, many motorists passing through the busy Route 30 and Orchard Road intersection in the village of Montgomery have been seeing a pair of wild turkeys standing in the grass along the highway.

Some motorists – presumably struck in traffic – have even photographed the birds and posted the photos on social media.

But what are turkeys doing in Kendall County and how common are the birds?

Montgomery Village President Matt Brolley says he has seen the birds daily on his commute to work and welcomes them to the village.

“They’re just chilling,” Brolley said of the birds. “I saw one yesterday trying to cross the street. He was in the second lane and I don’t know if he made it across.”

“It’s probably the one benefit to Orchard and Route 30 being a horrible intersection is that when you are waiting in traffic

you can see these turkeys dancing around next to you,” he said.

Brolley said he has been trying to come up with names for the turkeys and someone on social media suggested “Thanksgiving” and “Christmas.” “[Kendall County Board member] Scott Gryder [of Oswego] said you have to call one of them Monty,” Brolley said.

Joe Rogus, a district forest biologist for the Illinois Department of Natural Resources, said the agency last restocked the wild turkey in Kendall County about 10 to 15 years ago around Silver Springs State Park near Plano.

The birds that people are seeing now in Montgomery and elsewhere in the county are evidence of the success of that initiative.

“They have done very well ever since, their numbers are increasing and there is good habitat up there,” Rogus said of the birds. “They tend to co-exist with people quite well so even if there are homes in the woods they are very adaptive.”

Adding to the birds’ ability to survive is the fact that they

really don’t have a lot of natural predators.

According to Rogus, about 100 years ago wild turkeys were almost hunted to extinction.

Today as they make a comeback, turkeys can be hunted twice a year in the spring and the fall.

While Rogus stressed that turkey hunting is not allowed at Silver Springs, it is something that they may consider in the future.

“The Fox River corridor is excellent habitat for them. They do very well in areas that have dense woods. There may be some houses in there but you got ag fields and the river,” Rogus said.

The bird is also quick, with a top speed of 12 miles per hour, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

One myth that Rogus and other wildlife experts debunk is the idea that turkeys can’t fly.

“Once they are adults they fly very well and roost in trees at night,” Rogus said. “Turkeys are excellent flyers.”

He added that turkeys have

the ability to fly distances from a quarter of a mile to one mile.

Brook McDonald, president of the Conservation Foundation, a local organization dedicated to preserving open space, also confirmed that he has seen the turkeys as he kayaks the Fox River and will occasionally see them fly over the river to cross it.

“They are powerful fliers but they look awkward when they fly because they are so big,” he said.

Rogus and McDonald say they don’t know exactly how many of turkeys are now roaming Kendall County but they estimate the number could be in the hundreds with heavier concentrations in wooded areas along the Fox River.

Like many other wildlife species, McDonald explained that they are learning to adapt to being around people and they are expanding into the natural habitats set aside in parks and forest preserves.

“You’ve got Cooper’s hawks and red-tailed hawks in people’s backyards now which you would have never seen 20 or 30 years

ago,” he said. “We’ve set aside lots of natural habitats.”

Rogus and McDonald posit that the turkeys hanging around Orchard Road and Route 30 in Montgomery may be foraging for insects or seeds.

“The strips of grass between the road and cornfields is becoming more and more important habitat – a lot of mice and small mammals live in those areas,” McDonald said.

Rogus adds that turkeys have a range of roughly one mile that they travel around their roost.

Their nests are preyed on and eggs are taken from them but the poults, or young turkeys, grow quickly and are bigger than other birds.

“The mortality rates on the poults is rather low because they are a big, hardy bird,” Rogus said.

Domestic turkeys differ from wild turkeys in appearance. Wild turkeys tend to be a rustic brown color while domestic turkeys tend to be paler.

“They are typically white like the Butterball ones,” he said.

JOYCE E. ZITT

Born: Dec. 22, 1931 Died: Sept. 17, 2015 Joyce E. Cockriel Zitt, 83, of Yorkville, IL passed away Thursday, September 17, 2015, at Rush-Copley Medical Center in Aurora, IL, surrounded by her family.

She was born December 22, 1931, the daughter of Matthew and Isabelle (Baadte) Harker, in Langford, SD, but Joyce lived most of her life in Kendall County, IL. Joyce graduated from Yorkville High School and later married Carl Cockriel on September 30, 1950, in Aurora.

Together they raised their family on Lee Street in Plano, which would be home until after Carl passed in 1985.

Joyce was a member of St. Mary Catholic Church in Plano, IL for decades where she and Carl raised their children with commitment to practice of their faith through worship and Catholic education. Joyce was a faithful believer and servant to Jesus, shown quietly in her decades of volunteering as an organist, religious education teacher, and preschool aide. She also took great pride in her 16 years of work as a dental assistant and then as a seamstress.

Joyce later married James C. Zitt on August 23, 2003, a second chance at happiness for them both, after losing spouses.

They were married at St. Mary Catholic Church where they were both long-time parishioners. In 2010, they began attending St. Patrick Catholic Church in Yorkville which was much closer to their farm south of Yorkville. When they were newlyweds, Joyce often joked that she and Jim had been married for many years, just not to each other (referencing the number of years they were each married to their dearly departed first spouses).

She is survived by her loving husband, James Zitt; one daughter, Mary (Dan) Bohr; one son, David Cockriel of Plano; four grandchildren, Sarah (Brandon) Walsh of Plano and Leslie (Mike) Faltz of Sandwich, Stacy (Kevin) Jungkans of Millington, Melissa Durakis (John) of Plano. Joyce is

placed in handcuffs and he refused to identify himself, the reports said. Bond was set at $3,000 and a warrant has been issued.

• Michael J. Rexrode, 29, of the 2000 block of Pauline Place, Plano, was charged with unlawful possession of a controlled substance in connection with an incident Aug. 22 in Plano, Kendall County Court documents said. According to reports, Rexrode was found with a substance containing cocaine. A Sept. 29 court date was set.

• Megan K. Vicory, 34, of the 0-99 block of Marnel Road, Oswego, was charged with unlawful possession and delivery of a controlled substance in connection with an incident Aug. 25 in Kendall County, Kendall County Court documents said. According to reports, Vicory was found with a substance containing cocaine.

MARRIAGE LICENSES also survived by eight cherished great grandchildren, Rocco and William Walsh; Kaleb, Kamden, Kollin, Kassidy, and Konnor Jungkans; and Lily Durakis.

Joyce was filled with joy and laughter when her grandchildren, and later her great grandchildren, were around. She loved to spend time with them and tell stories and show pictures of them to others.

She is survived by one brother, Anthony David (Mary) Harker of Dayton, OH. In addition, Joyce is survived by her ten step-children, Margie Zitt, Jim Zitt, Tony Zitt, Tom Zitt, Ann Kohut, Tim Zitt, Terry Zitt, Jeanne Keller, Rosy Gundersen, and Andy Zitt; their spouses and families.

Joyce was loved and will be greatly missed by her family, friends, and Church community.

She was a great example to the family of how to be a wife, mother, and child of God. Joyce was so proud of the family she raised, and the families they in turn raised. There is no better example of kindness, selflessness, and love than her, because of the way she treated others.

The word “no” wasn’t in her vocabulary. In times of need, people would turn to Joyce because she was there to do the Lord’s work by helping any way she could. Always on the go, Joyce didn’t know how to slow down, although she was constantly being told to do so.

Even in times of tragedy, Joyce remained a pillar of strength because of her faith.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her first husband, Carl; and two sons, Thomas and Steve Cockriel; and one brother and sister-in-law, Blaine and Jean Harker.

Funeral Mass was held at 10:00 a.m. on Monday, September 21, 2015, at St. Patrick Catholic Church in Yorkville with Rev. Matt Lamoureux officiating.

Burial will be at a later date at St. Patrick’s Catholic Cemetery in Bristol. Visitation was from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Sunday, September 20, 2015, at Turner-Eighner Funeral Home in Plano with a prayer service at 7:30 p.m.

Memorials may be directed to St. Patrick Catholic Church in Yorkville.

Walk For Hope coming up in Oct. SHAW MEDIA Mutual Ground, a local domestic and sexual violence services agency, will host its eighth annual Walk For Hope on Saturday, Oct. 17, at Fabyan Forest Preserve in Geneva.

Walk for Hope is Mutual Ground’s largest fundraising event of the year with more than 250 walkers and 25 sponsors. Every dollar raised helps Mutual Ground provide services essential to victims’ recovery. This year’s Walk for Hope is even more important to the sustainability of Mutual Ground, as the state of Illinois has still not balanced its budget, leaving Mutual Ground and other agencies providing vital services without the funding they receive from DHS.

The event will begin at 9:30 a.m. with walker registration starting at 8 a.m. Friends, families and friendly dogs are welcome to come and join walkers or cheer for their favorite team. Local nonprofit partner Rover Rescue will match Mutual Ground supporters with dogs in need of forever homes as well as host a dog costume contest.

Face painting, massages, snacks and more will be available to walkers and their families. Jimmy John’s of Oswego and Yorkville will be providing a light lunch.

There is still time to create or join a team or donate to a current walker by visiting mutualground. org. Businesses interested in sponsoring this event may contact Michelle at 630-897-0084, ext. 101.

Seasonal Allergies

Affecting Your Life?

some things

JUST FIT 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 all 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 the allergy skin testing and overall reduced allergy symptoms.

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

The criteria for the program requires that the property have native plants for the benefit of

water conservation and wildlife; that there is clear evidence of stewardship of land; that water on the site is managed effectively to reduce runoff; that property along creeks, rivers or a pond is managed to reduce erosion and pollutants; and that reduced use of chemicals is recommended.

Once certified, businesses receive a sign recognizing their efforts and oneon-one advice about ways to make an even greater positive environmental impact on the property.

The foundation has helped

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.

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.

A beautiful spring begins with planting done this fall bulb growth.

Consider the physical location. Plant a few bulbs near spaces you see every day. Part of the joy of spring bulbs is seeing those first green signs of spring emerge from the cold ground.

Daffodils are a must for the Illinois garden not just because of the wide variety of shapes, sizes, and color combinations available, but because they are poisonous.

This means that nothing will eat them. Also daffodils multiply and naturalize beautifully, without having to be divided often.

Tulips are beautiful choices for the spring garden, but they are also a tasty treat for local wildlife, such as rabbits, squirrels, and deer. In heavy clay soils, tulips tend to be relatively short-lived.

After about three or four years, it is not uncommon for tulips to begin to decline, first failing to bloom and eventually dying off.

Consider planting some of the lesser known spring bulbs that are attractive in their own right. Galanthus, or snowdrops, are one of the earliest-blooming spring bulbs, often blooming with snow still on the ground.

Scilla siberica, or Siberian squill, has small blue flowers and is only 6 inches tall, but packs a big punch when planted en masse. Iris histroides, I. reticulate, and I. danfordiae are some other early bloomers to consider for their delicate display.

When planting bulbs, a good rule of thumb is to plant bulbs two to three times as deep as they are tall. Mea-

sure the depth of planting from the bottom of the bulb.

Plant bulbs right side up.

The “right side” is generally more pointed than the root end. If this distinction is not obvious, plant the bulb sideways and Mother Nature

will sort it out.

When purchasing bulbs, choose unblemished, firm bulbs with little or no new growth. Keep in mind that for a given species, larger bulbs will produce larger or more flowers than smaller

bulbs. Bargain bulbs are no bargain if they are small for their species.

For information on planting spring bulbs, check out the U of I Extension’s “Bulbs and More” website at www. extension.illinois.edu/bulbs.

Have you ever admired the vibrant colors of spring flowers and wondered how to create this beauty in your own landscape? “The time to plant for spring bloomers is now,” said University of Illinois Extension horticulture educator Jennifer Nelson.

“This is your friendly reminder that fall is the proper time to plant spring bulbs,” she said.

Nelson offers tips for planting spring bulbs: Plant in well-drained soil.

Clay soils commonly found in Illinois gardens often do not drain well. Excess water in the soil surrounding bulbs promotes rot and will eventually kill the bulbs. Improve drainage in heavy clay soil with organic materials such as compost or shredded leaves to encourage healthy

Summer vacation is just about over for our houseplants that we set out last spring. Now the decision needs to be made of what comes back in the home for the winter. We generally consider any plant that cannot survive outside in cooler temperatures a “houseplant,” since many of them have a tropical background or are from a hardiness zone warmer than ours.

For many, we take them outside to let Mother Nature nurture them back to a better state of health, knowing that once back inside, they will be in a less than a perfect growing location. You may have set them out on the ground under shrubs or evergreens, put them on the edge of the patio or next to the home.

Since the houseplants are not frost tolerant, the best practice is to get them acclimated to being indoors long before we have really cool temperatures outdoors.

To start the process, each houseplant should be looked at to see if it is one you really want back in the house. Any plants not headed back inside should be added to the compost bin. Clean up the houseplants by removing or pruning out anything dead, and by removing any weeds that may have

DOWN THE GARDEN PATH Richard Hentschel sprouted in the pots. You may be surprised how much they have grown, having had plenty of sunlight, rain and, in general, just from being outdoors.

This is the time to adjust their size by cutting back or pinching the newer growth, which will help the transition indoors.

The next step is to deal with any insects that have found a home on the houseplant or more likely in the soil in the pot. In the plant itself, there could be spiders using the plant as a place to capture their prey or other insects using the plant as a resting site.

In the potting soil there can be earwigs, or those little armadillo looking creatures that roll up in a ball when disturbed that commonly are called pill bugs, and even ants can set up home in the pot.

All these are natural and expected, except we really don’t want them indoors. Before resorting to a pesticide, try a forceful stream of water on the foliage to dislodge insects.

Also try flushing the pot with water, which usually drives out any insects

that have entered through the drainage holes. If you have found ants, you may need to fully repot the houseplant, shaking all the soil off and in the process leaving the ants behind, and then use a fresh potting soil when you reset the plant.

The last part of the process is moving those houseplants that have been in strong sunlight to locations that are shadier. This will start to get them used to lower light levels that they will have once inside.

Ideally, the houseplants should be back indoors before the furnace starts to run. If you need a target date to get this done, use Sept. 30.

Master Gardener earns state honor sworth House. Designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, the home is a significant example of modernist architecture that attracts thousands of visitors from a r o u n d t h e Laura Spang world; and Spang and her team work closely with the Farnworth House caretaker to document the plant life of the property.

“Laura has extensive knowledge of native plants and is able to identify many when they are just inches

tall,” said Sarah Fellerer, Master Gardener program coordinator. “She heads up a team of 10 Master Gardeners and Master Naturalists, and the fruits of their labor will be made into pamphlets for the visitors and binders for the docents.” The team visits the property multiple times each season, and they have discovered some plants rare to Kendall County. Spang uses her camera to document all plants in various stages of growth for the identification guide.

Also the head of the Office Gardens Committee, Spang is spearheading the effort

FALL FLAVOR

Maple Walnut Cookies will delight friends, family By the editors of Relish Magazine

Want to be a smart cookie?

Here are some cookie-baking tips from the Relish test kitchen: • Use self-rising flour, which has leavening agents and salt in premeasured proportions.

No need to be measuring out baking powder and soda.

• Make sure your ingredients are room temperature.

• Use an insulated baking pan.

• Don’t “fluff” the creamed mixture. This whips too much air into the dough. Beat just until creamy.

Maple Walnut Cookies Cookie ingredients: 1 cup butter 1 cup granulated sugar 1 cup brown sugar 2 large eggs 1 cup whole-wheat flour 1 cup self-rising white flour (plus ½ to 1 cup more if needed) 2 cups coarsely chopped walnuts 1 teaspoon maple flavoring 1 teaspoon salt

Icing ingredients: 4 tablespoons butter 2 cups powdered sugar 1 teaspoon maple flavoring 3 to 4 tablespoons milk Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Combine butter, sugars, eggs, flavoring, and salt and beat until just combined. Add flours, 1 cup at a time. If dough is sticky to the touch, add more self-rising flour in 1/2-cup increments until smooth. Stir in walnuts.

Scoop onto a baking sheet one dozen at a time. Bake in center of oven 10 to 13 minutes, until cookies are puffy and beginning to turn tan. Remove from oven and let cool. Meanwhile, mix icing ingredients until texture is smooth and thick. Add more milk or sugar to achieve a creamy texture. Ice tops of cookies.

Makes 2 dozen.

Recipe by Mary Carter. Photo by Kyle Dreier; styling by Teresa Blackburn.

• When adding the flour, beat the mixture just until the flour disappears.

• Remove your cookies from the oven just before they look done. A tan cookie will be more dense and pliable than a golden cookie.

• Use a small or medium scoop to measure dough.

• Make sure your baking sheet cools down before scooping a second batch onto it to keep your cookies from spreading too much.

• A metal cake spatula is better for removing cookies from the pan – it’s less sticky than a rubber cookie spatula.
