As a lifelong Cubs fan, I am used to heartbreak I haven’t been doing a lot of Cubs gloating to any of my friends this year. History has taught me to keep quiet on that front.

Forget the goat. Forget Steve Bartman.

I was born in July of 1969, smack in the middle of the Cubs’ first infamous fade.

Maybe I am their curse. That’s why I’ve been keeping quiet.

So, it is with guarded enthusiasm that I have been taking in this year’s playoffs.

To start, I am definitely not a bandwagon Cubs fan. I have been a fan as long as I can remember. The first I can recall a name for a Cub manager is Jim Marshall.

That was from 1974-76, from when I was 5 to when I was 7. Then came Herman Franks, Preston Gomez and Lee Elia. Basically a bunch of bad, bad baseball.

Oh, the Cubbies had their moments back then. Every once in a while, they would get hot and make us think they had something going, but the fall in the standings was inevitable.

That happens when your team doesn’t hit, pitch or field particularly well. They did OK individually. Bill Madlock and Bill Buckner each won a batting title, only to leave town and find winning situations elsewhere. Dave Kingman hit balls farther than anyone, when he wasn’t striking out

Channahon board talks chickens, sprinklers, sign height

By JEANNE MILLSAP

Shaw Media correspondent CHANNAHON – Farm animals are not allowed in the nonrural areas of Channahon, but one resident is planning to do her best to talk the Village Board into modifying the ordinance that outlaws them.

In particular, Lynda Cipciani is interested in chickens.

The South Valley Drive resident was so taken with the baby chicks that some teachers hatch in their classrooms that she went out and bought herself some eggs to hatch them herself. From those came five little chicks that she began to raise, uncaged in her backyard.

One turned out to be a rooster, which the family quickly gave to a rural Kankakee resident. The four others are still in her yard – for now. After the Channahon police were called with a report of unlawful chickens, Cipciani was told she needed to get rid of the fowl.

She and her husband came before the board Monday, asking whether the animals could stay with her while she prepares a presentation for the Nov. 21 board meeting,

when she said she will try to talk trustees into changing the ordinance to allow chickens within village limits.

“Chickens are beneficial,” she told the board.

Cipciani said many communities are beginning to allow the keeping of chickens.

Trustee Debbie Militello mentioned that the city of Chicago allows them.

“Our code does not allow for chickens,” Village President Missey Moorman Schumacher said.

Schumacher said if the board said yes to chickens, that would open the door to other farm animals, such as potbellied pigs and goats.

“Then we have livestock in the neighborhoods,” she said.

Village Administrator Tom Durkin said Channahon residents who live in rural A-2 areas may have four chickens on a 5-acre parcel, but Cipciani’s property is in a different zoning that does not allow any livestock.

The board did decide to allow Cipciani’s chickens to remain on her property until the November meeting, but Schumacher told her to begin looking for a home for them now.

Trustees this week also heard a first reading of a revised fire code, developed by village staff and the Channahon and Minooka fire protection districts.

The village is currently using a code adapted from the 2006 International Fire Code, which Director of Community Development Mike Petrick said is out of date with modern compliance. The updated code, should it be adopted, will be based on the 2015 international code.

The new fire code would not require sprinkler systems in residences, unless they are more than 5,000 square feet, not including the basement, or exceed three stories.

Businesses, however, that are more than 5,000 square feet would be required to have sprinkler systems.

Currently, only businesses larger than 12,000 square feet are required to have the fire systems, with the exception of bars and restaurants, which are already required to have sprinklers if they are larger than 5,000 square feet.

Channahon Fire Chief John Petrakis said Monday that the new code has been in the works about a year and customizes the international code to Channahon’s needs.

ON THE COVER The Morris City Council on Monday unanimously approved John Severson as police chief.

MORRIS’ NEW TOP COP John Severson named new police chief

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – When John Severson was hired as a part-time dispatcher with the Morris Police Department in November 1991, he had no idea he would one day be the town’s top cop.

Morris Mayor Richard Kopczick said Severson has been an exemplary officer and served as both a sergeant and a deputy chief, which made him the obvious choice to replace retired Police Chief Brent Dite.

“He really stepped up when Chief Dite took his new job at the Grundy Area Vocational Center,” Kopczick said. “I’d like to see him continue to grow with our department.”

Severson became a full-time dispatcher by 1993, and by 1995 he was a full-time patrol officer.

“When you move through your career, you look to the next level to move on to,” Severson said. “I had no idea I would ever be chief.”

Severson’s career path took him from patrolman to detective, to corporal, back to patrolman before being named sergeant in 2005 and deputy chief in 2013.

“I was very happy with deputy chief,” Severson said. “I thought I had at least another four years with the title before Chief Dite would retire.”

Dite’s retirement came as a surprise to many, but the opportunity to become an educator, teaching those who have an eye on criminal justice, was too good to pass up, Dite said. Dite officially retired Monday after 28 years.

Monday night, the mayor appointed Severson to the position, passing with a 7-0 vote by City Council. Alderman Bill Martin was absent.

Dite said that Severson has worked his way through the ranks and is a man of integrity whom he feels will do a great job in the position.

“John is a great family man who has

John Severson on Monday was appointed Morris police chief by Mayor Richard Kopczick. He replaces retiring Chief Brent Dite, whose last day was Monday. come up through the ranks and held just about every job in the department there is,” Dite said. “His integrity and work ethic are second to none.”

Severson said that when the mayor came to him, he was apprehensive about taking the job.

“I didn’t know why I was apprehensive, but I think it was because following a good boss is more difficult than following a bad one, and Brent [Dite] was a great boss,” Severson said.

Severson, who has been preparing for the transition, said one of his biggest goals is to keep the ship sailing in

the right direction.

“We have worked hard to get the department heading in the right direction, and I want to keep it heading that way,” he said. “I want to keep doing the things we’re doing right.”

He said he and Dite have worked hard to get technology and equipment to where it needs to be, but he realizes it will be an ongoing task as technology and equipment change with the times.

Severson said he already has started looking at helmets and special plates for the officers’ vests that will help to ensure their safety.

“With increased violence across the nation toward police officers, I worry about their safety,” he said. “The responsibility is mine if something goes bad; I have to take that on.”

Severson said he and Dite have had many of the same ideas, and together they achieved many of the goals they set forth for the department.

Dite said Severson’s strongest attribute is that he cares not only about the staff of the department, but also about the people of Morris.

“He comes to work every day with a purpose,” Dite said.

Morris Lions Club to host 30th Classic Car Show If you go

By ROB OESTERLE

roesterle@shawmedia.com MORRIS – For the 30th straight year, the Morris Lions Club will host its Classic Car Show at the recreational area at LyondellBassell on Route 6, five miles east of Morris. The event will begin from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Oct. 30.

In those hours, there will be something for everyone packed into the park across the street from the chemical factory, where patrons can park their cars and take a free shuttle bus to the grounds where the car show is being held.

“If it has to do with cars, more than likely it will be there,” said Lions Club member Doug Linn, who oversees the show. “We have 675 swap spaces and 200 cars in the car corral. The swap spaces will have a little bit of everything. From car parts to memorabilia to die-cast stuff. I’ve even seen someone selling antique fire extinguishers.”

The car corral will feature different classic cars or trucks in various states of repair – or disrepair – for sale.

“I’ve seen price tags in there for $100,000 for a fully restored show car to $500 for just a frame,” Linn said.

“That’s a good place for people to come if they are interested in restoring a car and may not have the tools or parts to

If they can get one that’s already been done, then they can finish it on their own. Stuff like that.”

Linn pointed out that the show is a little later in the month of October than usual. He said it is normally the Sunday after the final Cruise Night of

the year in Morris, but this year had to be held a couple of weeks later because LyondellBassell was in the middle of a turnaround that week and was concerned about safety.

The Lions Club will use the show’s proximity to Halloween to its advantage, adding a Best Halloween Costume

prize to encourage folks to bring their kids as well. The cost of admission is $5 for adults, and kids ages 12 and younger can enter for free.

“We want everyone to feel welcome,” Linn said. “This is our biggest fundraiser of the year and all the money goes back to the community.”

In addition to the $5 donation to get in, visitors can take a chance to win the Raffle Car, which this year will be a 1969 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am tribute. Raffle tickets cost $5 each or three for $10. There will also be a 50/50 raffle.

“That’s a pretty good deal,” Linn said. “You have a chance to win a pretty nice car for a $5 raffle ticket. We also have a lot of food vendors coming out there. Pam’s Dance Academy will have their corn dog truck and there will be a lot of other food trucks. ... There’s something for everyone.”

SPOOKY DRESS REHEARSAL Grundy County prepares to give residents a trick-or-treating sampler

By JEANNE MILLSAP

Shaw Media correspondent In addition to door-to-door neighborhood trick-or-treating, fun organized events abound throughout Grundy County.

Trick-or-treating hours in these Grundy County communities are: • Braceville: 4 to 7 p.m.

• Carbon Hill: 4 to 7 p.m.

• Channahon: 4 to 7 p.m.

• Coal City: 4 to 7 p.m.

• Diamond: 4 to 7 p.m.

• Gardner: 4 to 6 p.m.

• Mazon: 5 to 7 p.m.

• Minooka: 4 to 7 p.m.

• Morris: 5 to 7 p.m.

• South Wilmington: 4 to 6 p.m.

• Unincorporated Grundy County: 4 to 6 p.m.

Halloween Spooktacular

The Halloween Spooktacular, sponsored by the Morris YMCA, is on Oct. 22 in the facility’s parking lots at 320 Wauponsee St. The event is free of charge.

This, the second annual Halloween celebration for the YMCA, promises to be bigger than the first one, according to Family and Community Engagement Director Sarah Porzel, with 23 vendors offering candy and giveaways.

Vendors will circle their vehicles in the YMCA’s parking lots with trunks open and facing inward, and area children, dressed in their costumes, will skip from vendor to vendor to collect their candy. There also will be Halloween-themed games, face-painting, prizes and giveaways and a bouncy house with an obstacle course.

Kids and their parents, who are also encouraged to dress up, can also run the Monster Dash around the block for prizes and medals. Representatives from the YMCA’s partner, Morris Hospital, will be on hand as well to award a Best Trunk Prize. The YMCA will also be open for tours.

“It gives the community a safe place for kids to come trick-or-treating,” Porzel said, “and another excuse for kids to wear their costumes. It’s also a good chance for us to show them what we offer here at the Y.”

Parents can use the opportunity to sign their children up for one of the many YMCA offerings, as well, such as the new Irish Dance Class, for children ages 4-12, that begins Nov. 11.

Haunted Hallways

Another popular trick-or-treating event will be held at Coal City High School from 4 to 6:30 p.m. Oct. 25.

Haunted Hallways is organized by the school’s Future Business Leaders of America, FBLA, club, and costs $3 for adults and $1 for children.

The event, offered to children under the age of 10, takes place inside the high school. The young trick-ortreaters in their costumes will be

taken through hallways of the school for treats, then to the gymnasium for games. FBLA members run the event, and several other school clubs and organizations dress up and participate.

“It’s a nice evening and a positive experience,” Principal Mitch Mamann said. “It’s a way to get smaller kids a chance to go trick-or-treating without worrying about the weather.”

The first year of the event saw about 650 children participate, Mamann said, and the second year had about 1,000.

“It really has taken off,” he said.

The event is a community service, but also a fundraiser, and dollars donated go to FBLA activities, such as

student participation in the national conference.

Morris Downtown trick-or-treating

Many retailers in historic downtown Morris will open their doors to trick-or-treaters from 5 to 7 p.m. Oct. 27. The event is hugely popular and is kicked off with a parade through downtown.

Children and their parents will gather at Chapin Park at 3:45 p.m. for the 4 p.m. Halloween Parade, which begins at the park and proceeds south on Liberty Street to the Grundy County Courthouse, where the Morris Lions Club will have a costume-judging contest.

MORRIS – After six weeks of training, Niko, a Dutch shepherd, has joined the ranks of patrolling officers for the Morris Police Department.

Mark Vanderploeg, also of Dutch heritage, took on the responsibility of being Niko’s partner, a 24-hours-a-day, sevendays-a-week job.

“I was talking with [police officer Patrick] Funk about his dog and I know a dog is a great resource to get drugs off the street,” Vanderploeg said. “When I heard the department was getting another dog, I thought I would like to be his partner.”

When Niko completed training, it was clear to his partner that he liked his job of finding drugs. When the scent of cannabis, heroin, meth, crack or cocaine hits his nose, Niko gets excited.

Vanderploeg said the dogs are trained not only in drug seeking, but also tracking and article search.

But Niko’s excitement shines through

when he finds the drugs.

“He’s going to be an outstanding resource for the department,” Morris Police Chief Brent Dite said.

Dite said that in addition to putting a second K-9 on the ground in Morris, a dog like its first K-9, Talon, also can help at traffic stops conducted by other agencies, outside of Morris, who do not have canine officers.

Currently, Funk has responded to several calls on Interstate 80 to check out cars stopped by the Illinois State Police.

The addition of Vanderploeg to the K-9 unit will allow access to a drug seeking dog seven days a week.

Vanderploeg, who always has ridden solo in his police vehicle like other Morris police officers, said having the dog in the car is something that takes getting used to. It’s someone else to think about, just as with any partner. The difference being Vanderploeg has to walk this one on breaks he’s not used to taking.

He said he thinks the fact that both he and the dog had no clue what they were doing as they started training was beneficial.

“Both of us knew nothing; they’ve taught me how to train him,” he said.

Training will continue twice a month with group training with other K-9 officers and their human counterparts.

Cori Trotter – R

What inspired you to run?

I believe that my professional experience along with my values makes me the best circuit clerk candidate for the taxpayers of Grundy County. I will not only safeguard your hard-earned tax dollars, but also offer my skillset and background in business administration to improve your circuit clerk’s office; taking the office to a new level of efficiency, fiscal responsibility and service. I am highly qualified to lead the office of circuit clerk. I have a wealth of experience and knowledge in managing employees, working within a budget and leading an office. As a responsible conservative-minded professional, you can be sure I will spend your tax dollars wisely and with great care. I am excited to have the opportunity to build on the solid foundation Karen Slattery has in place at your circuit clerk’s office.

street with hardly a slap on the wrist, it jeopardizes the safety of our entire community. Drug addiction does not only affect the user, it destroys families and directly impacts the increase in crime in our community.

Alternative courts, such as drug courts, and the access to Narcan are all very important tools that should be used whenever appropriate and possible. However, there is distinction between using drugs and dealing drugs.

The dealers create more users, the dealers get our youth hooked on their poison. If the dealers are not stopped, the heroin epidemic will continue and more lives will be destroyed. This directly impacts the safety of all of our citizens.

Crimes against our most vulnerable citizens – our senior citizens, our citizens with disabilities and our children. I will be a passionate advocate and strong voice for these victims.

The criminals who prey on our most vulnerable citizens must be aggressively prosecuted. I will stand up to these predators – protecting those that cannot protect themselves – sending a strong message that Grundy County will not tolerate those that prey on our most vulnerable.

See STATE’S ATTORNEY, page 27

Brooke Shupe – D

What inspired you to run?

I am inspired by a plan for change to this very important office – implementing a policy for tougher penalties for heroin dealers who poison our youth, bringing a hands-on approach as the county’s top prosecutor, implementing community-based prosecution that will bring together all stakeholders for the mutual goal of public safety, and taking on the online predators that target our family’s finances, our senior citizens and prey on our children – these are the changes that can make a difference. These are the changes that can make Grundy County safer.

My passion is advocating for victims – fighting for people. I am running for this position because I believe I can make a difference. I have worked hard to receive the extensive training needed and to acquire the skills to be an experienced prosecutor.

If elected state’s attorney, I will put my skills and experience to work for the people of Grundy County. I am a prosecutor – even more importantly, I am also a mother of two young children that I want to raise in this community.

I care about this community – the safety of my family and your family – are very important to me.

ney, who is the county’s top prosecutor, must aggressively and fairly prosecute the crimes committed in the county. There is no one else in the county who is charged with this responsibility for its citizens. Prosecuting cases and taking a “tough on crime” stance against violent criminals and heroin drug dealers is very important and necessary for public safety.

Prosecution is key to law enforcement. The police cannot properly protect its citizens without the collaborative effort of the state’s attorney.

Fighting the heroin epidemic is important to me and will be a top priority if I am elected state’s attorney. I believe we have to hit this epidemic at the root of the problem – through tough penalties for heroin drug dealers. I will immediately implement a “no probation” policy for heroin dealers. There have been 13 heroin deaths in recent years in Grundy County.

I will explore drug-induced homicide charges, where the victim dies as a result of a heroin overdose. When drug dealers are turned back onto the

16 DRUG SAFETY Vision issues and forgetfulness can interfere in seniors’ proper use of prescription medications.

In-home caregivers are able to help senior clients manage their drugs more safely.

Although not all caregivers are certified to dispense medications, most can help by prompting seniors to take medicines at scheduled times. Caregivers can stress the importance of keeping medications in their original containers so that drugs can be easily identified by name, color, shape, and size. If senior clients are unsure about dosage or frequency of use, caregivers can have them check dispensing information on the labels of the original containers. Caregivers may also suggest that senior clients speak to medical professionals before adding any

non-prescription drugs or supplements to their regimens.

Providing a full range of home and health care, clients and their families will enjoy the peace of mind that comes from the highest level of quality service in all that we do.

CHANNAHON – With tears in his eyes, Channahon Fire Protection District Lt. Ryan Jandura looked around the station at a room filled with family and friends of his friend and fallen firefighter Ken Frayne.

Jandura stood before them to tell them that Frayne’s loss will not be forgotten, and shared details of a friendship that began in 1999 when the two joined the then-volunteer fire agency.

“As long as I’m alive, I’ll do what I can to make sure Ken’s memory stays alive in the Channahon fire district,” Jandura said.

He then went on to share a cherished memory.

“I was always a little jealous of Ken. He was lucky to live about a block from the firehouse, and I lived 7 miles away.

I’m not going to tell you how fast I drove to try to get to the fire station before Ken, but it never failed that I’d drive past his house and if I didn’t see his truck in the driveway, there would be the engine going down the road with the lights on with Kenny in the back, sometimes waving,” Jandura said.

On Oct. 13, 2001, the 28-year-old Frayne died during a subsurface water

trakis suggested a service for the anniversary, Jandura said it was the right time to move forward with his plans.

Schumacher said this was the first time the village named a street after someone posthumously, so the Village Board had to create an ordinance for an honorary street naming program, which included general guidelines for future applicants.

Then the board accepted the fire district’s application to dedicate the street for Frayne, which was approved unanimously Oct. 3.

“This event was a part of our history, and we want to memorialize an individual who was a model volunteer firefighter. It’s the least we can do for Ken’s family, which seems small in comparison to what they had to give up,” Petrakis said.

Frayne’s father, Ken Frayne Sr., said his son loved being a firefighter.

Ray Hannan, husband of the younger Frayne’s mother, Marilyn Hannan, said he was honored by Thursday’s dedication.

“Losing Kenny was the second biggest shock of my life. The Channahon fire department has done a phenomenal job remembering Kenny, and the loyalty between the guys here and my son was unbelievable,” Ray said.

D-54 seeks White Oak improvements D-201 talks potential 2016 tax levy 19

Coal City Dental Center Serving the community for the past 24 years.

“We cater to the dental coward in you!”

By ALLISON SELK

Shaw Media correspondent MINOOKA – During the Minooka School District 201 Board of Education meeting Monday, Superintendent Kris Monn discussed the preliminary 2016 tax levy based on estimates of property values from Grundy, Will and Kendall counties.

Monn said the numbers are preliminary and will be revised as more information becomes available before the published notice Nov. 21 and adoption of the levy at the board meeting Dec. 19.

The district has received documents from Will and Kendall counties that indicated an equalized assessed value increase of greater than 5 percent, Monn said. He said Grundy County has not yet provided numbers to the district, but he was told the Minooka and Channahon areas have been the areas that seem to have recovered from the recession most with property values.

Monn said the board is considering asking for a levy increase of 13.8 percent in order to cover any EAV surprises, but he does not think there will be a chance that the levy will be that high.

Monn said the main source of the levy increases are the increase in bond and interest payments of about $450,000.

All other increases are projected to be from increased property values, which

are a mix of new construction and appreciation of existing properties.

“If property values stay the same, our levy would almost stay the same, except for the bond and interest increase. Since we are not ‘tax capped,’ we have maximum rates in each of the individual levies and we have levied as much as we could each year in those, so if property values go up, so does the levy. If values go down, so does the levy,” Monn said.

The one purchase approval for the evening was approved by the board with member Doug Martin voting via phone.

Monn said that, in July, the district was made aware that boiler No. 3 at Minooka Intermediate School had critical failures and corrosion.

The director of building and grounds, Kevin Smith, had Oak Brook Mechanical and KJWW Engineering Consultants inspect the boiler to see whether repairs or replacement was needed. Both advised the replacement of the system, and due to the impending cold weather, the district bypassed the bid timeline, and instead received three quotes from past clients for the replacement.

Monn recommended the board accept the bid from Oak Brook Mechanical at $62,500 for the boiler, labor and materials, and that KJWW further investigate the reason the existing boiler failed before its projected lifespan. The board approved the measure unanimously.

Whether you have been married for 5 years or 50, that person — your partner — who has been a part of you day in and day out, is no longer there, leaving a painful void in your life.

If you attend religious services talk with others of your faith.

It’s also important not to make any immediate major changes in your life. It’s wise to wait until you can think clearly and your life has settled before moving, changing jobs, even remarrying.

It’s perfectly normal to grieve, but to allow mourning to go on extensively is unhelahty and can be a sign of serious depression, according to the National Insitute on aging. Signs include trouble sleeping, problems concentrating and making decisions and loss of appetite.

Staying active socially can also help, says the NIA. You can take a walk with a friend, visit the library, volunteer, join a health club or a local sports team, or join a social group. If you have grandchildren, offer to watch them. If you don’t have a pet, consider adopting one. Take a class or start a hobby.

If your grief continues to affect your daily life, talk to your doctor, who may recommend grief counseling.

Finally, don’t lose touch with family and friends.

Staying connected goes a long way toward your emotional health and well being.

There are other things you can do to cope, ease the pain and to get back on track.

• Thursday, October 20, 2016

Because of the merger of Shabbona Middle School and White Oak Elementary in August, the Morris Elementary School District 54 Board of Education has endured many decisions on building maintenance due to the growth, as providing a comprehensive financial outlook so the Morris community can be aware of the direction of the district.

At the regular board of education meeting Monday, Superintendent Shannon Dudek asked for approval for two projects around White Oak Elementary.

First was the addition to a security camera system around the school.

Dudek said the camera system, which will be placed in common areas, parking lots, gym, cafeteria, and drop-off and bus areas, will be completed by the calendar year at a cost of $103,321. The bid was approved with board Vice President Bonnie Cap absent.

The parking lot will also get a face-lift as Dudek presented a motion to approve additional parking spots at the back of White Oak Elementary, which he said will “equate to the number of spaces projected for the front of the building, but the cost of the project is a third of the projected parking lot at the front of the building.”

The costs were approximately $41,000

and $43,000 for the two areas and were approved with Cap absent.

The board also approved, with Cap absent, an automated logic service agreement contract to be shared with Saratoga Elementary School 60c.

Dudek said that, if likely system repairs are needed, this shared contract of $8,250 will be less expensive than the expected repairs. In order to keep the public aware of the financial status of the district, Dudek has asked bookkeeper Jill Mills to give quarterly reports at the board of education meetings. She said the State of Illinois general state aid will be fully funded at the foundation level of $6,119 per pupil and this year’s gas payments will total $2.3 million.

However, the state has yet to make the fourth installment from 2015-16 in special education-private facility, funding for children requiring special education services, special education personnel and special education orphanage to total $148,301.

Also not paid from 2015-16 was the fourth installment of regular transportation and special education transportation in total of $53,547.

The district received Title I and Title II grant allotments, which were $143,216 and $44,050. Mills said the bills will be paid; it’s just a matter of when the state has the funds to cover the checks to the district.

The most common signs of cancer to the eye and orbit include ptosis (drooping eyelid), proptosis (bulging eye), inability to move the eye in some directions, double vision, a bump on the eyelid, and eye pain. If you experience any of these symptoms, report them to your doctor immediately. Cancer is a disease that is best treated in its early phases.

Public Notice Proposed Issuance of a Federally Enforceable State Operating Permit A&R Logistics, Inc. in Morris A&R Logistics, Inc. has applied to the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency for a federally enforceable state operating permit (FESOP) regulating air emissions from its grain handling and bulk dry material transfer facility located at 8440 South Tabler Road in Morris. The Illinois EPA has reviewed the application and made a preliminary determination that the application meets the standards for issuance and has prepared a draft permit for public review and comment.

The Illinois EPA is accepting written comments on the draft permit. Comments must be postmarked by midnight November 19, 2016. If sufficient interest is expressed in the draft permit, a hearing or other informational meeting may be held. Requests for information, comments, and questions should be directed to Brad Frost, Office of Community Relations, Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, PO. Box 19506, Springfield, Illinois, 62794-9506, phone 217/782-7027, TDD phone number 217/782-9143, brad.frost@illinois.gov.

The repositories for these documents and the application are at the Illinois EPA's offices at 9511 West Harrison in Des Plaines, 847/294-4000 and 1021 North Grand Avenue East, Springfield, 217/782-7027 (please call ahead to assure that someone will be available to assist you). The draft permit and project summary may also be available at http://www.epa.gov/caa-permitting/region-5electronic-permits. Copies of the documents may also be obtained upon request to the contact listed above.

The 1990 amendments to the Clean Air Act require potentially major sources of air emissions to obtain federally enforceable operating permits. A FESOP permit allows a source that is potentially major to take operational limits in the permit so that it is a non-major source. The permit will contain federally enforceable limitations that restrict the facility’s emissions to non-major levels.

The permit will be enforceable by the USEPA, as well as the Illinois EPA. SM-CL0378858

Dentistry has surpassed patient needs in many more ways than just the highly-touted implant technology that can replace natural teeth for a lifetime.

New materials, methods and practices have reached the more common, tried-and-true technologies to replace teeth, such as crowns and bridges, and – more importantly – in the way dental practices deliver service to patients.

For example, a patient can get a crown to protect a broken or decayed tooth in one visit, including an X-ray, mold, crown manufacture and fitting in just one visit.

The reason is that the dental office of today has all of the latest technology, tools and skills to complete the entire process in-house.

“Technology has evolved to where we can do it in one visit. Before, the crown would have to be made in a lab and you would have to wait two to three weeks,” said Dr. Eric Salud, lead dentist at

Complete Comfort Dental in Channahon.

“Any time we can save the patient an appointment is a win-win for everybody. They don’t have to take more time off from work or find a babysitter,” he said.

The full process might take 1½ to two hours. If more adjustments are needed, they can be done in the same visit.

Such in-house, one-visit practices also result in a better-fitting crown or bridge and, with proper care, make the replacement tooth longer lasting.

While he favors implants because they are longer lasting, Dr. Salud said technology crowns and bridges remain viable options and are more affordable.

A crown is a metal, porcelain-covered shell placed over the remains of a tooth after a root canal or when tooth material is too scarce to support a filling. The same is true of a bridge, which caps the two teeth on either side of a missing or removed tooth.

Fr. James Steele to retire from JJC board postpones vote on contract St. Thomas Episcopal Church

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Since 1971, Father James Steele has made Morris and St. Thomas Episcopal Church in the town his home.

He became a priest in 1968 and spent the next three years in Sterling and Morrison before becoming the priest in a small and upcoming church.

“I came to Morris on July 1, 1971, and I’ve been here ever since,” Steele said.

“It was a smaller church, but it experienced dramatic growth in the 1970s and the parish grew considerably before tapering off slowly about 2000.”

Steele will be leaving St Thomas and Morris behind in November when he will turn 72, and will retire as church rules dictate.

“I never doubted that I was supposed to be a priest,” Steele said. “The best thing about being a priest is sharing in the lives of all the people.”

He said he has served several families throughout multiple generations, and throughout multiple situations.

“Dealing with a family for several generations is a wonderful thing,” he said. “Some come back and want to be married where they experienced God in

the first place. I have taken some from baptism to grave.”

He said the most difficult part of priesthood is the fact that there is no connection between the effort one puts into something and the results.

He said people have told him he has touched their lives and he has no recollection, others he remembers working so hard to help, only to have them not want or recognize the help.

On Nov. 13, Steele will stand at the altar of St. Thomas one last time as its priest. it’s a day that is bittersweet for Steele.

The parish celebration, however, is open to anyone in the community who has attended the church or been touched

by Steele through his work at the church.

The celebration will be a brunch at Maria’s after the service.

For those who know Steele from one of his many other community investments, a reception will be held on Nov. 6 at St. Thomas Episcopal Church in Morris from 3 to 5 p.m. Steele has sat on several boards in the community and has been active with PADS and Habitat for Humanity. He hopes that those who know him through the community will stop to say goodbye.

JOLIET – The contract for the new Joliet Junior College president was not yet voted on at a board meeting last week. Although approval of the contract for President Judy Mitchell was on the agenda for the Oct. 11 meeting, the JJC Board of Trustees decided not to vote on it. At its Sept. 13 meeting, the board unanimously approved Mitchell as the college’s ninth president.

Board President Robert Wunderlich said there were a few items regarding the contract the board has to work through and it will likely be approved at an upcoming special meeting.

“It will be forthcoming. The contract is going to happen,” Wunderlich said.

Before trustees were going to consider approval of last week’s agenda, they went into closed session for roughly one hour.

Absent from the meeting were board Vice Chairman Andrew Mihelich, Trustee Daniel O’Connell and Student Trustee Kathleen Duong.

Other board matters

The board approved the deer population management program.

Mitchell proposed to trustees at the Sept. 27 workshop meeting a three-year

program to control the growing deer population at JJC through culling, saying the damage to the college property’s crops “continues to escalate.”

The board also approved an HMO insurance plan option for full-time employees. Faculty Union President Robert Marcink said the union thinks the plan is a “win-win situation,” as it is potentially saving money for JJC and its employees.

“We’re certainly supportive of it because we think anything that provides options is a good thing,” he said.

During the JJC Foundation report, Kristi Mulvey, the foundation’s executive director, said the organization has raised $22,715 for the college’s wrestling program.

Last May, the board approved establishing a wrestling program at JJC. Start-up money is needed for the program and the JJC Foundation has been accepting donations for it.

Mulvey noted two upcoming events to support the wrestling program. On Oct. 30, the wrestling group will have a meet-and-greet event at Heroes and Legends and on Nov. 3, there will be a “sip and paint” fundraiser in Plainfield.

“Those are two things that we hope you’ll support to bring in our new wrestling program to the college,” Mulvey said.

What politician, past or present, do you look up to and why?

Continued from page 11

Abraham Lincoln. President Lincoln was not only one of the greatest presidents in our nation’s history, he was an accomplished trial lawyer and a highly skilled orator. A man of moral convictions, he stood by his beliefs regardless of the naysayers.

As a child, he stood up to bullies and believed in fairness for everyone.

He had many failures, but that did not deter him. He faced many challenges – professionally and personally – but that did not stop him.

Abraham Lincoln was not only a talented lawyer, he was a kind and compassionate person – using his abilities to fight for people – using his position for the good of the people, not for personal gain.

Most importantly, Abraham Lincoln made a difference. He made a

Why are you the best candidate?

I believe my experience, legal ability, and my record in office makes me best choice for the position of Grundy County state’s attorney. In my 12 years as a career criminal prosecuting attorney, I have tried and won hundreds of cases involving nearly every misdemeanor or felony charge imaginable.

To the Electors of the State of Illinois: The Illinois Constitution establishes a structure for government and laws. There are three ways to initiate change to the Illinois Constitution: (1) a constitutional convention may propose changes to any part; (2) the General Assembly may propose changes to any part; or (3) a petition initiative may propose amendments limited to structural and procedural subjects contained in the Legislative Article. The people of Illinois must approve any changes to the Constitution before they become effective. The purpose of this document is to inform you of proposed changes to the Illinois Constitution and provide you with a brief explanation and a summary of the arguments in favor of and in opposition to the proposed amendment.

Proposed changes in the existing constitutional amendment are indicated by underscoring all new matter and by crossing with a line all matter which is to be deleted.

PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO ADD SECTION 11 TO ARTICLE IX OF THE ILLINOIS CONSTITUTION ARTICLE IX – REVENUE SECTION 11. TRANSPORTATION FUNDS (a) No moneys, including bond proceeds, derived from taxes, fees, excises, or license taxes relating to registration, title, or operation or use of vehicles, or related to the use of highways, roads, streets, bridges, mass transit, intercity passenger rail, ports, airports, or to fuels used for propelling vehicles, or derived from taxes, fees, excises, or license taxes relating to any other transportation infrastructure or transportation operation, shall be expended for purposes other than as provided in subsections (b) and (c). (b) Transportation funds may be expended for the following: the costs of administering laws related to vehicles and transportation, including statutory refunds and adjustments provided in those laws; payment of highway obligations; costs for construction, reconstruction, maintenance, repair, and betterment of highways, roads, streets, bridges, mass transit, intercity passenger rail, ports, airports, or other forms of transportation; and other statutory highway purposes. Transportation funds may also be expended for the State or local share of highway funds to match federal aid highway funds, and expenses of grade separation of highways and railroad crossings, including protection of at-grade highways and railroad crossings, and, with respect to local governments, other transportation purposes as authorized by law. (c) The costs of administering laws related to vehicles and transportation shall be limited to direct program expenses related to the following: the enforcement of traffic, railroad, and motor carrier laws; the safety of highways, roads, streets, bridges, mass transit, intercity passenger rail, ports, or airports; and the construction, reconstruction, improvement, repair, maintenance, operation, and administration of highways, under any related provisions of law or any purpose related or incident to, including grade separation of highways and railroad crossings. The limitations to the costs of administering laws related to vehicles and transportation under this subsection (c) shall also include direct program expenses related to workers’ compensation claims for death or injury of employees of the State’s transportation agency; the acquisition of land and the erection of buildings for highway purposes, including the acquisition of highway rights-of-way or for investigations to determine the reasonable anticipated future highway needs; and the making of surveys, plans, specifications, and estimates for the construction and maintenance of flight strips and highways. The expenses related to the construction and maintenance of flight strips and highways under this subsection (c) are for the purpose of providing access to military and naval reservations, defense-industries, defense-industry sites, and sources of raw materials, including the replacement of existing highways and highway connections shut off from general use at military and naval reservations, defense-industries, and defense-industry sites, or the purchase of rights-of-way. (d) None of the revenues described in subsection (a) of this Section shall, by transfer, offset, or otherwise, be diverted to any purpose other than those described in subsections (b) and (c) of this Section. (e) If the General Assembly appropriates funds for a mode of transportation not described in this Section, the General Assembly must provide for a dedicated source of funding. (f) Federal funds may be spent for any purposes authorized by federal law.

EXPLANATION The proposed amendment adds a new Section to the Revenue Article of the Illinois Constitution that provides revenue generated from transportation related taxes and fees (referred to as “transportation funds”) shall be used exclusively for transportation related purposes. Transportation related taxes and fees include motor fuel taxes, vehicle registration fees, and other taxes and user fees dedicated to public highways, roads, streets, bridges, mass transit (buses and rail), ports, or airports.

Under the proposed amendment, transportation funds may be used by the State or local governments only for the following purposes: (1) costs related to administering transportation and vehicle laws, including public safety purposes and the payment of obligations such as bonds; (2) the State or local share necessary to secure federal funds or for local government transportation purposes as authorized by law; (3) the construction, reconstruction, improvement, repair, maintenance, and operation of highways, mass transit, and railroad crossings; (4) expenses related to workers’ compensation claims for death or injury of transportation agency employees; and (5) to purchase land for building highways or buildings for to be used for highway purposes.

This new Section is a limitation on the power of the General Assembly or a unit of local government to use, divert, or transfer transportation funds for a purpose other than transportation. It does not, and is not intended to, impact or change the way in which the State and local governments use sales taxes, including the sales and excise tax on motor fuel, or alter home rule powers granted under this Constitution. It does not seek to change the way in which the State funds programs administered by the Illinois Secretary of State, Illinois Department of Transportation, and operations by the Illinois State Police directly dedicated to the safety of roads, or entities or programs funded by units of local government. Further, the Section does not impact the expenditure of federal funds, which may be spent for any purpose authorized by federal law.

FORM OF BALLOT Proposed Amendment to the 1970 Illinois Constitution Explanation of Amendment The proposed amendment adds a new section to the Revenue Article of the Illinois Constitution. The proposed amendment provides that no moneys derived from taxes, fees, excises, or license taxes, relating to registration, titles, operation, or use of vehicles or public highways, roads, streets, bridges, mass transit, intercity passenger rail, ports, or airports, or motor fuels, including bond proceeds, shall be expended for other than costs of administering laws related to vehicles and transportation, costs for construction, reconstruction, maintenance, repair, and betterment of public highways, roads, streets, bridges, mass transit, intercity passenger rail, ports, airports, or other forms of transportation, and other statutory highway purposes, including the State or local share to match federal aid highway funds.

You are asked to decide whether the proposed amendment should become part of the Illinois Constitution.

YES –––– NO

For the proposed addition of Section 11 to Article IX of the Illinois Constitution.

Continued from page 13

DISTRICT 2 Debra Jo Kinsella, R – Minooka What inspired you to run?

What issues are important to you?

She said her goal is to keep Grundy

Previous county board and township leadership locally is what she said she looks up to.

“They had a willingness to listen and take time to find out what the residents wanted and made sure that transformed to policy,” Kinsella said.

Mireya Martin, R – Minooka

Why are you the best candidate to represent your district on the Grundy County Board?

As a current Grundy County Board member, my active involvement and knowledge of numerous aspects of County Board governance and finance makes me well-qualified to continue to advocate on behalf of the citizens of District 2 and all of Grundy County.

I currently serve as the vice chairman of the Law and Justice, and Emergency Management Agency Committee.

I also serve on the Finance, and Technology and Elections committees.

I have been actively involved in the financial management of the county and budget planning for the 2017 year.

What politician, past or present, local do you look up to and why? or national, do you look up to and why?

I would have to say Barack Obama.

Rasmusson said Abe Lincoln is the politician he most looks up to.

“He had his convictions, he knew right from wrong despite political pressures,” Rasmusson said.

Lana Phillips, D – Morris What inspired you to run?

I was asked to run when I retired

He has the best of intentions for the citizens of this country, but it’s been a shame that the Republican Congress hasn’t let him get much done.

I grew up in the era of JFK and loved him, and Bill Clinton left his successor with a surplus and that got messed up, but I would have to say I look up to Barack Obama the most.

“I enjoyed a rewarding career right here in Grundy County for a couple of decades where I worked with the county board and not for profits,” Kinsella said. “Being loyal to Grundy County makes it easy to serve.”

Kinsella said she is lucky enough to have worked in both agriculture and as an educator not just locally but at the state level, she understands the issues both are facing and she feels she can represent them.

The Grundy County Health Service has been a model for the state for years, but has been drastically defunded in recent budget periods and is in danger of being reduced to irrelevance.

UP CLOSE A step back in time Photos by Allison Selk Shaw Media correspondent

MINOOKA – Over the weekend, thousands of spectators filled the grounds of Dollinger Family Farms outside Minooka for the annual Civil War Days event, Oct. 14, 15, and 16. Hundreds of re-enactors set up camp on the farm grounds to depict life in the Civil War era.

Farm owner Noreen Dollinger said Friday that ReedCuster and Dwight schools came out for field trips and the farm was open to the public Saturday and Sunday.

Revelers had hands-on experiences in laundry, medical surgeries, soldier training and games, and witnessed battles, cooking, enlistment and daily life of the period.

Three blood clots later, Morris woman hoping to return to work

By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND dunland@shawmedia.com

MORRIS – A year and a half ago, Minara Bogart was living a different life.

Now, the 30-year-old Morris woman is struggling to regain her health and keep her home.

Up until May 2015, Bogart was working her “dream job” in Aurora as a customer service Minara representative for a vac- Bogart uum cleaner company.

“I love fixing people’s problems,” she said.

Her then-boyfriend, Tony Bogart, was working as a forklift operator.

They’d bought a modest house. They planned to fix it up; they wanted their 7-year-old son, Titus, to grow up there.

It was a paycheck to paycheck, but contented, lifestyle – until the day Minara suddenly had trouble with her right arm.

She had trouble bending the arm. It hurt, felt warm to the touch and had red streaks. Fearing she had a blood clot, Minara went straight to the emergency room. An ultrasound confirmed her fears.

Doctors thought the blood clot was a fluke and possibly due to the hormone-based contraception she had recently begun taking, she said. Minara was told to stop the contraception and take blood thinners to dissolve the clot.

She also went on short-term disability, she added.

Two months later, Minara was pregnant. An elevated blood pressure reading prompted a consultation with a specialist in high-risk pregnancy. Minara said the specialist blamed her obesity, but advised she continue the blood thinners during her pregnancy even though the clot was gone.

During the pregnancy with Ronan, now 7 months, Minara also developed gestational diabetes and symphysis pubis dysfunction, which caused tremendous pain due to excessive movement of the joint aligning the left and right pubic bones.

During that time, the short-term disability ended. Minara assumed she and Tony had fixed the financial stress with a hardship program through the bank that holds their mortgage.

Minara had difficulty accepting the help.

“I’ve always worked in my adult life,” Minara said. “I took pride in working and not having to rely on people.”

After the birth of Ronan, Minara’s obsessive compulsive disorder flared up and she experienced postpartum depression. She now had pain everywhere. By spring, she had overcome the OCD and the depression with support from family, friends and her church.

Photo provided

Minara Bogart’s husband, Tony Bogart, lost his job as a forklift driver in September. He’s supporting the family – which includes Ronan, 7 months, and Titus, 7 – by working odd jobs.

She decided to drop the excess weight and scheduled gastric bypass surgery.

Four days before Minara’s surgery, she was back in the hospital with heart attack symptoms. The diagnosis? Two pulmonary embolisms. Additional testing showed Minara had Factor V Leiden, a mutation in one of the clotting factors in her blood. She will take blood thinners for the rest of her life.

As her health weakened, Minara’s faith strengthened.

“When your self-reliance and ability to take care of yourself is taken away, you rely more on your heavenly father,” Minara said. “You feel him more.”

In July, family surprised Minara and Tony with a budget trip to Florida so they could get married and forget

In addition to driving a forklift, Tony has worked as a tire technician and in security.

“He’s just looking for a job that will pay the bills,” Minara said. “He’d love to do something in the scientific field, but that will require us to be financially stable for him to go back to school or

take an apprenticeship.”

In the meantime, Minara still has pain and is seeing a pain specialist. All she and Tony want to do, Minara said, is repay the hardship loan of $9,000 and go back to work. Tony is working odd jobs.

Once he finds another full-time job, they can make the mortgage payments, she added, even if Minara still can’t work outside the home. If she can’t, she plans to continue growing her home business of making jewelry, which she sells on Etsy.

“Either way, I plan on working,” Minara said. “I have no desire to go down without a fight. I will do something. I won’t sit on my butt for the rest of my life, you know?”

Prosperity on the rise for Grundy County This time of year, it seems there is construction around every curve.

Despite the inconvenience, that construction represents jobs, growth and progress.

Certainly, the newest unemployment numbers point to recovery and prosperity in our Grundy County communities. A rate of 5.9 percent for August is the best rate we have seen since 2008.

Recruiting starts now for Grundy County Internship Program

“This program has provided very strong, enthusiastic candidates. I hope our site continues to be a part of the internship program,” stated a local business leader.

The office is reaching out to local businesses and organizations to host interns for summer 2017.

The internship program is a cooperative effort between business and education. The four local high schools pre-screen high-quality, high-performing students to work in local businesses.

With nearly 100 students submitting

“

VIEWS Nancy Norton Ammer applications, there is ample opportunity to grow the program. The number of internships has increased from just nine positions four years ago to 29 this year, thanks to the quality candidates.

It is a great opportunity to educate our young people about the opportunities right here in Grundy County.

For local businesses, this is a chance to showcase your organization and create a pipeline to your future workforce. The variety and type of work experiences is vast. This year, students worked in engineering, health care, IT, human resources, government affairs, accounting and many other fields.

Many thanks to the participating businesses, which included Aux Sable Liquid Products, City of Morris, Grainger, Joliet Junior College, LyondellBasell, Metalstamp, Midwest Industrial Sales, Morris Hospital, Rez-

in Orthopedics, Spaceco Engineering, Standard Bank, US Cold Storage, and Village of Minooka.

Both public and private sector organizations are encouraged to contact the Grundy Economic Development Council (GEDC) to learn more about the program.

Shop local this holiday season

The busy retail season is upon us and now is a good time to remember our local downtown merchants when preparing your Christmas lists. A healthy downtown business district provides great value to local residents.

Local retailers offer a unique shopping experience and excellent customer service in an enjoyable, stress-free atmosphere.

So remember, when you go to a fundraiser and see items donated by local store owners or take your children to downtown trick or treating, return the favor and SHOP LOCAL.

Energy powers the local economy

Thanks to Exelon Generating, GEDC investors were treated to a rare,

behind-the-scenes tour of Dresden Station this month.

Bob Osgood, site communications director and his staff, led participants through the reactors, saw fuel storage pools, and witnessed firsthand the tremendous safety precautions at the facility.

Thanks in large part to Exelon, Grundy County has 18 times the number of energy-related jobs than the national average.

In addition, the company provides high-paying careers, property taxes, and philanthropic giving that are vital to the economic health of our communities.

Local businesses, large and small, all play an important part in the well-being of Grundy County.

Do your part, whether it is participating in the internship program, hiring local, or shopping downtown.

Little things can make a big difference.

Grundy County Technology Department

Budget woes mean jobs lost for Grundy County employees

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – With more than a $1 million deficit, the Grundy County board went to each department and asked leadership to cut their budgets, which has resulted in jobs lost in some departments.

Kristen Torkelson, an employee with the county in the Technology Department, spoke during public comment at the Oct. 11 county board meeting about how she found out her job was going to be eliminated.

“I have worked in the Tech Department for nine years. There have been rumors that there will be layoffs,” she said. “I am the person who puts your board packet online so you can access it with your iPad. I got to find out my job was eliminated when I did that on

Friday. I wasn’t respected enough to be told.”

She said her boss, County Technology Director Tim Doss, told her that the board would be deciding whether she had a job.

“I know better,” she said.

She pointed out that, in her nine years with the county, one and a half years of that time was spent with no manager and her department was able to come in under budget.

“I believe there are funds to be found,” she said.

Torkelson pointed out that the Technology Department purchased a backup camera for a vehicle, something she calls overspending.

Molly Doughty, staff planner with the Grundy Emergency Management Agency, also has a job that is going to be eliminated.

“I have been with the Grundy County EMA for 15 years. When we heard there would be job cuts, we understood,” she said during public comment at Tuesday’s meeting.

What she didn’t understand is why she had to find out from the board packet that was placed online Friday.

“This is how I found out I’m losing my job,” she said.

She said she also found out that her boss, EMA Director Joe Schroeder, is getting a $5,000 raise, and another employee in the department will see a $6,000 raise.

“I have gone eight years without a raise, two years with no bonus at Christmas time,” she said. “Only three budget lines went down in the department.”

She said her job is 60 percent funded by grants, leaving the county to only pay for 40 percent of her salary.

She asked board members to look at all the lines of the budget that was placed on file at the Tuesday night meeting before rubber-stamping it.

County board members traditionally do not respond to public comment during the meeting, but board member Vicki Geiger said before voting to place the budget on file that she had concerns over someone being laid off while their boss receives a $5,000 raise.

County Board Chairman Chris Balkema said the county board walks through the process and puts an updated budget online 30 days to review before voting on it at the November regular county board.

“Individual employment decisions are made by department heads,” Balkema said. “I agree there is room for improvement in the process in which employees are told.”

OPINIONS

Navigating minefields in elections Presidential candidates set the turnout.

That’s the race voters care about the most by far, so everybody else who’s running down-ballot essentially has to work within the structure of that year’s presidential turnout numbers.

Some organizations can fiddle around with the margins here and there and get some voters out who might not have bothered voting, but down-ballot candidates mainly have to find a way to win with the hand they are dealt by the top of the ticket.

So, if one presidential candidate crashes and burns, that’s almost always the ballgame.

That’s just something to keep in mind while watching top Republicans abandon their presidential nominee Donald Trump after that ghastly “hot mic” tape surfaced and he, in turn, lashed out at those turncoat Republicans and promised a nuclear attack on the Democratic nominee whom he has pledged to prosecute if elected.

Yes, there’s still time for Trump to get his act together. The election is still a few weeks away – usually considered an eternity in politics. But, man, just look at this mess.

Miracles do happen in politics, but miracles ain’t plans.

It goes without saying that the impact of a possible implosion in Illinois will be felt the most in the suburbs, where more moderate voters were less receptive to Trump’s candidacy to begin with. Rep. Sam Yingling, D-Grayslake, has been under constant, withering attack from the Republicans for months, so he could really use some help from the top.

The Democrats recently sent more than $200,000 to Cynthia Borbas’ DuPage County race against Rep. Christine Winger, R-Wood Dale. That’s about half of all the money they’ve given her since July. President Barack Obama lost the district by two points in 2012, so it’s worth watching if this weirdness at the top continues.

The Republicans maintain that their expensive and meticulously concocted plan, centered around tying Democratic candidates directly to the horribly unpopular House Speaker Michael Madigan, will get people to the polls and persuade them to support Republican legislative candidates even if some of them vote for Hillary Clinton.

But the Republicans have also said for months that their plan depends on Trump not completely falling apart. He just has to run a “normal” race, which obviously isn’t happening.

It’s hard to see how this will work out well for the Republicans in the suburbs, where moderate women voters are undoubtedly appalled at what’s going on with Donald Trump.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

VIEWS Rich Miller But it’s a bit trickier in downstate districts, where Trump has been the most popular here.

For example, just a couple of short weeks ago, Mike Mathis’ Democratic supporters were proudly pointing to the number of homes that had their guy’s yard signs planted next to Trump’s signs. Mathis is up against appointed Rep. Avery Bourne, R-Raymond, is a district just south of Springfield and has run a credible race.

The Mathis campaign’s boast about attracting Trump supporters has also happened in most every other contested downstate district, as what remains of the Democratic blue-collar white male vote surged away from Clinton to Trump. Simply put, the Democrats recognized early on that they needed those votes to win.

In Mathis’ case, President Obama lost the 95th House District by 13 points four years ago, so the only way he can defeat Bourne is with support from people who normally lean Republican.

Mathis was asked about who he was supporting for president at a candidates’ forum last week. After much hemming and hawing and complaining about how bad the choices were, he finally said, reluctantly, that he’d be voting for Hillary Clinton.

Trump has become so toxic that maybe Mathis’ position won’t hurt him too badly.

Then again, lots and lots of Trump supporters believe Clinton is the Devil incarnate (I’m not kidding, do a Google search). They may not like what their guy is doing, but that won’t push them toward her.

Trump polled a mere 29 percent in a statewide Democratic poll taken the middle of last week and careened downward to an unheard-of 27 percent in a Republican tracking poll earlier last week. He bounced back to above 30 in that GOP tracker, but ... oh, man that’s still bad.

To be clear, a Trump implosion will undoubtedly help Democrats. The fewer people who lean Republican who actually vote on Election Day or switch parties means Democratic voters will make up a greater share of the Nov. 8 pie. But after positioning themselves as Trump-friendly for months, Downstate Democrats now have to navigate a minefield for the next few weeks.

Fall cleaning tips to help others and the Earth

Fall brings a multitude of things to do on the weekends. Cleaning the garden, preparing for winter by cleaning out the garage, and also taking inventory of the books and toys we have for our children to make room for new gifts.

Instead of giving these nutrient rich items to a composting facility, you may do that yourself and benefit from all of your hard work. Simply by composting these items in the fall will allow the winter months to break them down into a rich humus that may be used as a soil supplement or fertilizer in the spring for vegetable gardens, flower gardens and also houseplants.

Lakewood Animal Hospital hosts annual Puppy Trot

By ALLISON SELK

Shaw Media correspondent MORRIS – Ditka, an 8-month-old golden retriever and husky mix, took his owner, Barb Svornik, for his first 5K run through the streets of Morris on Sunday to raise money to help other canines as well as his feline friends.

“Ditka did pretty well, but he liked to greet everyone he met along the way. I thought he would slow down toward the end, but if we had another dog in front of us, he’d run faster because he wanted to catch up,” Svornik said.

Sunday, more than 100 runners and walkers of all ages and skill levels met at Lakewood Animal Hospital for the Lakewood 5K and Mile Puppy Trot.

Lakewood Animal Hospital houses two veterinarians, Dr. Michael Miller and Dr. Stephen P. Carter.

Miller said that this event began three years ago in order to raise awareness for the hospital as well as introduce the doctors and staff to the community.

“Dr. R. Todd Gay, who was here from the beginning, was looking to retire, so this event was also a way to transition to help him retire, so the community would be comfortable with the new doctors,” Miller said.

At 9 a.m., runners made their way to the start line and, after a countdown, they were on their way through the streets by the animal hospital.

Some runners had their furry companions with them on the run and local Boy Scouts had water bowls for the dogs and water bottles for the humans along the 3.1-mile course.

The first runner in was Rick Dudley of Morris, who ran the race last year and decided to come out and run again to support the cause and check out the new course.

“I liked having a new course, because it makes you think about where you are running, and this year there

At 10 a.m., dogs and owners set out for the 1-mile puppy trot. The dogs were excited to see other dogs and greeted one another with nose sniffs or friendly barks. Dogs from chihuahua to Great Dane took to the course, all happy to be outside for exercise.

“I like my dog because he’s fun and cuddly. He will try to sniff all of the other dogs on the walk,” 10-year-old

When the first dog was in sight of the finish, volunteers placed a large banner of pink crepe paper out for the first-place dog to walk into. Cheers could be heard as Ruby the St. Bernard rounded the corner to the finish and finished the jog with owner Rebecca Walsh of Morris.

“We came out to support our veterinarian,” Walsh said. “We brought

Ruby for the small jaunt and she did well and loved walking, which was a far cry when she was a puppy when we had to drag her on walks.”

The proceeds of the event were split between two local animal shelters, Pet Project Inc. shelter in Marseilles and Just Animals Shelter in Mazon. Miller said these organizations are known to Lakewood Animal Hospital through clients who volunteer at the shelters.

MORRIS – Illinois Secretary of State Jesse White’s Inspector General Jim Burns visited the Morris Driver Services Facility on Sept. 21 to discuss security upgrades to the driver’s license/ ID card design, as well as the transition to a more secure central issuance process.

The Morris facility implemented the central issuance process in July.

With implementation of these changes, Illinois has moved closer to achieving full “REAL ID” compliance, which is a federal mandate of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

Applicants visiting driver services facilities no longer are issued a new permanent DL/ID card at the end of the application process. Instead, they leave the facility with a temporary secure paper driver’s license, which is valid for 45 days and serves as their DL/ID for driving purposes and proof of identification.

The temporary, secure paper driver’s license or ID card contains a photo and the basic information that appears on the permanent driver’s license or ID card. In addition, the facility employee returns the old DL/ID card back to the applicant after punching a hole in it.

Meanwhile, the applicant’s information is sent to a centralized, secure facility in Illinois. After fraud checks have been conducted to ensure the applicant’s identity, a higher-quality, more secure DL/ID is printed and sent via U.S. mail within 15 business days to the applicant’s address.

“These changes are necessary for Illinois to be REAL ID compliant,” White said. “In addition, the changes further enhance our efforts to protect Illinoisans from fraud and identity theft. The upgraded driver’s license and ID card contain a variety of enhanced security features that take advantage of new developments in technology.”

“These important changes benefit the public and are strongly supported by the Secretary of State’s Safe ID Task Force,” said Burns, who serves as chairman of the task force. “Central issuance provides better fraud and identity theft prevention by allowing the office to investigate possible fraud before applicants receive their DL/ ID in the mail. In addition, the design of the DL/ID card has been upgraded with important features that overthe-counter technology simply cannot produce. The centralized, secure facility utilizes high-tech manufacturing equipment capable of printing cards

online at www.cyberdriveillinois.com.

If an applicant does not receive their new permanent driver’s license or ID card after 15 business days of visiting a facility, they can check the status by visiting www.cyberdriveillinois.com or by calling 217-782-7044.

These necessary changes are important steps toward becoming REAL ID compliant. DHS announced in January that Illinois DL/IDs will continue to be accepted as primary forms of identification to board commercial airplanes for domestic travel until January 22, 2018.

Burns also said that Public Act 99511, legislation that was initiated by White and was signed into law on June 24, 2016, meets required legislative benchmarks for REAL ID set by DHS. The law calls for first-time DL/ID card applicants, beginning July 1, 2017, to show proof of legal presence by presenting a U.S. passport, a certified copy of their birth certificate or immigration documents that show the person is lawfully in the country.

The law also replaces non-expiring ID cards for seniors with an eight-year ID card, changes expiration dates from 10 years to eight for disability ID cards and prohibits an Illinoisan from holding a driver’s license and an ID card simultaneously. These provisions are required for REAL ID compliance.

Burns reemphasized that DL/ID card renewal applicants visiting Driver Services facilities will not need to bring in any new or additional documentation. “Nothing has changed in that regard,” Burns said.

While the driver’s license and ID Photo provided card upgrades are being implemented, there will be more than one valid Inspector General Jim Burns with Kim Maurer at the Morris Driver Services Facility. driver’s license/ID card until the old incorporating state-of-the-art security within 10 days. design format is phased out.

MORRIS – Although the Morris football team officially qualified for the IHSA playoffs in the past week with a 28-13 win over Sycamore, there is no rest for the Redskins on Friday night – the final week of the regular season.

That’s because traditional power and Northern Illinois Big XII crossover rival Geneseo comes to town with an identical 6-2 record and aims, just as Morris does, to make some noise in the upcoming postseason.

The Maple Leafs, also like the Redskins, feature a power running game and want to make the game as short as possible by maintaining control of the ball and keeping the clock moving by keeping it on the ground.

For the most part, that formula has worked for Geneseo this season, save for a two-week span in which they were outscored by Sterling and Rochelle by a staggering combined score of 80-7. Outside of Chicago South Shore and Chicago Clark, those were the only two teams on Geneseo’s schedule with winning records heading into the season’s final week. Last week, Geneseo held on for a 31-28 win over Kaneland, a team that Morris defeated, 34-3, the previous week.

One of the big things at stake for Morris is a chance to host a firstround playoff game, a likelihood that becomes greater with each win.

If they can finish the season at 7-2, there is a strong chance that they would be at home in the first round of the playoffs.

Steve Soucie of the Kankakee Daily Journal, who projects the playoff brackets weekly, has Morris projected to win the final week and get the third seed in the South Bracket of Class 5A. “We would definitely like to be at home for the first round,” Morris coach Alan Thorson said. “We usually don’t talk to the kids about the playoffs until the regular season is over, but having a home game to start the playoffs is definitely something we have talked about.

“Playing on our own field is special. There are more of your own fans there, you have a certain routine, you don’t have to ride a bus. Once the game starts, it’s still the game of football, but all the other surrounding stuff is just easier to deal with if you are at home. Not that we mind going on the road that much, but it’s like going on vacation. It’s nice while you are there, but you end up looking

Area high school football schedule FRIDAY 7 p.m. – Coal City (5-3, 3-2) at Wilmington (8-0, 5-0): Nothing like closing the regular season with a visit to your arch-rival. If this doesn’t get Coalers ready for playoff atmosphere, nothing will.

7 p.m. – Plainfield South (4-4, 4-4) at Minooka (3-5, 3-5): Indians are out of playoff contention, but would still love to both play spoiler and claim the Ridge forward to getting back to sleeping in your own bed.”

The home field has been kind to the Redskins this season, as they are 5-0 at home and have won those games by a combined score of 189-36.

Standing in the way is a team that seems much like their own.

Road championship.

7 p.m. – Sandwich (1-7, 1-4) at Seneca (4-4, 2-3): A win will give the Irish five wins, but that’s still no playoff guarantee.

They’ll need every playoff point they can get.

7:15 p.m. – Geneseo (6-2, 2-2) at Morris (6-2, 3-1): The Maples Leafs have played two non-CPS schools with a winning record this year. They have lost both games, by a combined score of 80-7.

“Geneseo is a lot like us,” Thorson said. “They are a physical, hardnosed football team that will run the ball right at you on offense and hit you hard on defense. They are right there on the Class 4A-5A bubble and they want to get as good a seed as they can, too. It’s pretty fair to say that

whichever team wins this game will get a home game in the first round of the playoffs, so they will come in and give us everything they’ve got.

“If we can keep them from having long, sustained drives and keeping control of the ball, we should be OK. But, with their offense, if they can keep the chains moving, they can wipe out a half a quarter pretty easily and the game gets a lot shorter. We have to get some defensive stops and get our defense off the field.”

For the Redskins, it’s a matter of continuing to improve and not being satisfied with the status quo.

“We have gotten better as the year has gone on,” Thorson said. “I don’t think we have peaked yet, and that’s a good thing. You want to be playing your best at the end of the year. We have taken our level of play up almost every game and the last two weeks, we have stepped it up again. If we play like I know we can, then I like our chances.”

46 FOOTBALL: MORRIS 28, SYCAMORE 13

Morris holds on to the end in homecoming win

By ROB OESTERLE

roesterle@shawmedia.com MORRIS – It could have been a disaster.

However, because of a couple of big plays later on, the fumble by Morris tri-captain Michael Feeney at midfield that gave Sycamore the ball with just over 3 minutes remaining in the Redskins’ 28-13 win turned out to be just an afterthought.

“It felt pretty bad when I fumbled,” Feeney admitted. “But I knew I had to forget about it because we had to finish the game.”

As it turned out, there was still plenty of action remaining, despite the clock’s reading of 3:03.

On Sycamore’s first play, Morris defensive back Delaney Stutzki intercepted a pass – his second pick of the game and fourth in the last two weeks. After a multitude of penalty flags littered the field and explanations for each one delivered, Morris took over at its own 41 with 2:45 to play, still holding onto a 2113 lead.

From there, Michael Gerischer was stopped for no gain and Feeney, who led all rushers with 123 yards on 18 carries, ran for five, bringing up third-and-5.

Feeney, who had been named homecoming king earlier in the week, broke through the left side of the line and kept going, outrunning the Sycamore de-

Morris’ Michael Feeney (3) pivots through Sycamore’s defense Oct. 14 at Morris Community High School. The Redskins defeated the Spartans, 28-13. fense for a 54-yard touchdown. Dallas Hastings added his fourth extra-point kick of the night to give the Redskins (6-2) a 28-13 advantage with 2:21 to play, which allowed the Morris faithful to breathe a little easier.

“We don’t want to make mistakes,

but we don’t worry about it too much when we do,” Morris tri-captain Keagan Sobol said. Sobol had scored two touchdowns earlier in the game. “That’s why Michael is Michael. We know, if he does make a mistake, then a big play is coming pretty soon to make up for it.”

“I knew I had to do something,” Feeney said. “I didn’t want that fumble to hurt us. The line blocked great all night and I was able to break a big one there at the end.

“It’s a great feeling to win on your senior homecoming. This whole week has been amazing. I’ve never felt anything like it.”

The third Morris tri-captain, Michael Gerischer, also had a touchdown, meaning that the three Redskin captains combined to score all of their touchdowns. But they were far from alone as far as memorable plays.

“This was a total, total team effort,” Morris coach Alan Thorson said. “I can name almost anyone on the roster tonight and find something they did to help us win this game. The offensive line was great, our defensive line [Alonzo Enriquez, Avery Hoffman, Jared Akin and Sean Grogan] was outstanding. The special teams were good with Dallas making all his extra points and Nathaniel Halcomb getting us some good punts to keep them pinned back deep.

“Halcomb made a couple of nice catches on offense, too, and Tyler Spiezio made a big catch and blocked well downfield. We had so many kids step up and play well. That’s what’s great about this team. When someone’s number is called, they want to do whatever they can to help us win.”

Coal City comes through in clutch to likely earn playoff berth

By MARK JOHNSON

Shaw Media correspondent COAL CITY – Coal City football coach Lenny Onsen says his team will not game plan for or treat this Friday’s season finale at Wilmington any differently with playoff eligibility in the bank than it would have otherwise.

But Onsen had to admit that, thanks to the Coalers’ stunning 10-6 defeat of Peotone in Week 8, some of the pressure is off.

He said the feeling around the team is far different than it might be were the Coalers entering their game with the unbeaten Wildcats needing a win to qualify.

“It changes everything,” Onsen said. “If you’re going in 4-4, you’re talking about, ‘How are we gonna do this?’ Now, hey, you came up with a big win, and it makes things better.

I mean, it’s a big boost for the kids, and the preparation will be great this week,” Coal City entered Week 8 with more opponents wins (playoff points) than all but one of the teams projected as Class 4A teams that had 4-3 records.

Only two such teams with 3-4 records had more opponents’ wins. So it is extremely likely they will receive their sixth straight playoff berth and their 27th since 1987, regardless of what they do against Wilmington.

It is a position that didn’t seem likely when the Coalers faced a fourth-and-25 situation while trailing 6-3 with just over a minute to play against Peotone.

A 60-yard touchdown pass from Christian Johnson to Kaleb Spreitzer essentially won the game and may have very well saved Coal City’s season.

“We locked in our playoff appearance now. We didn’t want to go into

Wilmington without that fifth win,” Spreitzer said. “Felt like the game was over, and then that happened. It was just a sigh of relief, basically. We really wanted to go to the playoffs, and it looked like that was not going to happen, but it did.”

The Blue Devils entered the game in an almost identical situation to that of the Coalers. Peotone was 4-3, in good shape with opponents’ wins (it entered with one fewer than the Coalers) and left to face an undefeated opponent in Herscher in Week 9.

Now Peotone must defeat a Herscher team that has outscored its opponents, 317-68, to become eligible for the first time since 2013.

MORRIS SPORTS ROUNDUP STAFF REPORTS

CROSS COUNTRY

Northern Illinois Big XII Conference meet: At Hoover Park in Sterling,

the Morris varsity girls team finished fourth, led by an all-conference performance by Sabrina Baftiri.

Baftiri finished 14th with a time of 19:54. Madi Mayberry finished 24th for Morris with a time of 20:28, followed by Sophie Tibbott (30th, 20:50), Mya Shannon (35th, 20:54), Meghan Smith (49th, 21:25), Lily Tibbott (57th,

22:05) and Casi Valdes (60th, 22:18).

Yorkville won the meet, Kaneland was second, Steeling third. Morris and Ottawa (5th) tied with 152 points.

Morris edged the Pirates via the sixth runner tiebreaker.

“First of all, what a great race by Sabrina,” Morris coach Joe Blumberg said. “The all-conference tag is an accomplishment in any meet, but in this tough 2A, 3A conference, it has added meaning, and she should be awfully proud.

“Four teams separated by one point. It’s hopefully an eye-opening thing for our girls. If it were a regional, fourth advances and seventh goes home. Every point is big.”

The Morris varsity boys finished eighth out 10, with Zach Chapman earning all-conference honors due to his 16th-place finish in 16;14. Other Morris runners were Zach Guzmn (40th, 17:17), Tony Pethtel (57th, 18:59), Jake Eisenbeis (58th, 19:00), Shane McTague (59th, 19:14) and Evan Olson (60th, 19:16).

“With four state-ranked teams and the always-dangerous Yorkville Foxes, we knew it would be a tough day,” Blumberg said. “Add injuries, disci-

pline issues, and we really struggled.

One very bright spot was Zach Chapman. With 21 or 28 runners in the race projected to run at state, Zach earning an all-conference medal is a great accomplishment and award.

Five hundred summer miles will elevate a kid to that type of company.”

Morris hosts a Class 2A regional next week. The girls race at starts at 10 a.m., and boys at 11 a.m. Other competing teams will be Crete-Monee, Kankakee, LaSalle-Peru, Providence Catholic, Ottawa, Rich East, Rich South, and Streator. Fans are reminded that the Run The Beat 5K will force spectators to enter MCHS from the south entrance near Vine St. and West Ave.

LASALLE – The Morris girls tennis team continued postseason play this past weekend at the Class 1A LaSalle-Peru IHSA Tennis Sectional, earning a fifth-place finish behind a strong effort from singles champion Megan Davy.

Davy, a senior, went 4-0 in the sectional to reach the state finals for the fourth consecutive year. She began her run on Friday with a 6-0, 6-0 victory over Coal City’s Kiara Abbott in the opening round and ended Day 1 with a 6-0, 6-0 win over St. Bede’s Lauren Silfies.

Saturday’s semifinal saw Davy beating Sterling’s Anna Ivarson, 6-0, 6-2. In the championship match, Davy squared off with LaSalle-Peru’s Maddie Smith earning a 6-0, 6-1 victory. It was Davy’s second sectional championship in a row as she won the Ottawa Sectional a year ago. Davy will begin play in the state series on Thursday.

Morris singles player Alyssa Larsen was denied a return trip to state by losing, 4-6, 6-4, 6-2, to Sterling’s Katelyn Grell in a hard-fought match

which featured several lengthy 20ball rallies. Larsen ended her season with a 21-6 record.

In the doubles bracket, Morris seniors Jenna Steil and Paulie Stevens were upended, 6-0, 6-0, by Sterling Newman Catholic’s Erin Vits and Maddie Jacobs, the eventual sectional champs. The seniors end their Redskin careers with a 9-9 record on the season.

Morris’s other doubles team of senior Emily Lamaze and sophomore Abbie Borgstrom lost a grueling three-set match to Princeton’s Brown and Prushinski by a score of 4-6, 6-4, 6-1. The duo end their season with a 7-9 record.

The siren song of Mille Lacs Lake is calling This cool fall weather has just about convinced me to call in “sick” to work. Besides all the excitement of hunting season, I am about to succumb to the idea of pursuing some fall fishing fun.

Some of my best days have come once school starts, the summer crowds are gone, and most anglers have hit the deer stands. The result is lots of water free of boat traffic, gorgeous landscape ablaze in color, and fish that are ravenous. Yes, heading south to pursue fall fish is fun, but it is by far more fun to travel north.

There is a particular body of water I have my eye on. I know that many of you have fished it, a local Lockport resident guides up there all summer, and the Bassmaster Elites just finished up their Angler of the Year tournament on this lake a few weeks ago. Have you guessed it? I am eager to fish Mille Lacs lake in northern Minnesota.

INTO THE OUTDOORS Steve Rogers This famous body of water is approximately 100 miles north of Minneapolis. The natural lake is large, but shallow. It covers just over 132,000 acres. The residents there say the lake is known for the “big four.” That includes walleye, smallmouth, muskie, and northern pike. I don’t know many anglers that wouldn’t like to catch at least one of those species, if not all of them.

To give you an idea of the type of smallmouth fishery this place has become, the recent Bassmaster event on the lake saw some huge bags. Seth Feider, of Minnesota, caught 15 fish that topped the scales at 76 pounds, 5 ounces. That is over a five-pound av-

the calendar.

I did a bit of looking around, and there are vacation homes for rent all over the area. The prices are extremely reasonable as well. When I travel to new lakes, I’d much rather rent a vacation home as opposed to staying in a hotel. It is a lot easier to find homes with ample parking spaces for a couple of families and boats.

If you go, take some great pictures and send me a few. I just might need to schedule a road trip next summer and see what all the fuss is about for myself.

Until then, I will be sure to watch the weather and catch some good bags of fish around here. Make sure you get out soon. The days are getting shorter and soon ice will be working its way over our favorite water. Until then, good fishing!

erage! The scary thing is, he said that the lake isn’t at its best.

The local anglers who served as bass marshals for the event mentioned the lake should be better in a couple of weeks. They said that in mid-September. Guess what? Mille Lacs ought to be right in the middle of that fall bonanza.

The fall can be tough fishing, but when things get right, the scaly predators bunch up in huge numbers. The key is trying to find those spots. Mille Lacs has a strong and defined dropoff in that 8-12 foot range, open-water shoals, and large chunks of vegetation. Putting all the factors together is the key to locating fish that make for memorable outings.

The chances of me suddenly taking some days off and chasing those giant bronzebacks are about the same as the Bears calling me up to play linebacker this week, but maybe somebody reading this has some open time on

Mushrooms are one of those crazy foods that people either love or hate: mushrooms are neither fruit nor vegetable, have weird textures, and grow in dead and decaying plant matter.

But fungus or not, mushrooms have been part of the human diet for thousands of years and continue to rise in popularity.

As interest in food has become trendier and the local food movement has grown, so has the interest in local, unusual mushrooms. Today most areas have multiple mushroom growers that sell to nearby restaurants, markets and to the public. Additionally, many of these farms offer classes or workshops to teach an aspiring fungivore the art and science behind growing their own.

Wild mushrooms are most common in the spring and fall months but cultivated and dried mushrooms can be found throughout the year.

The specifications of choosing fresh mushrooms depend mostly on the species but overall, choose those with unblemished caps and smell earthy, never fishy. Refrigerate in a single layer, covered loosely with damp paper towels, allowing for air to circulate around the mushrooms.
