â&#x20AC;&#x153;Village and Farm Cottages. Requirements of American Village Homes Considered and Suggested: With Designs for Such Houses of Moderate Costâ&#x20AC;? by Henry Cleaveland, William Backus and Samuel Backus.

This was the kind of periodical Samuel Hitt likely poured over during the approximately twenty years since he migrated from Maryland to Ogle County, Illinois.

House plan magazines of every style. Their authors had become famous for their new ideas, costs, simplicity or complexitiesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;many a quirky feature was passed on in architecture. The house plan Hitt chose was in the periodical listed above.

Reference stated that it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite palatial but, well, it wasâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;is grand.

In the original plan it was a duplex. Each half contained a parlor, living room, kitchen and bedroom the second. The plans were altered enough to became comfortable for one large, multi-generational family such as Hitts. It ended up having seventeen rooms and eleven foot ceilings. It was room. Suggested cost by the author was $3,000. Hitt spent $8,000!

A large limestone quarry lay a mile south of the site. It was used as the building material for the eighteen inces thick exterior walls.

There was a two-story addition at the Samuel M. Hitt rear with pitched roof, pillars supporting a porch roof. The sweeping front-side porch has square pillars.

The cupola features arched windows, decorative paired pilasters and paired brackets with pendants.

Under the circular window on the east side was the main entrance but before the turn-of-the century, 1900, entry was changed and a bay window installed. About that time also the stonework surrounding the circular window where the entrance had been there was carved â&#x20AC;&#x153;Samâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;l M. Hitt, 1858,â&#x20AC;? the date the building was begun.

Several changes have been made as owners changed, too. Indoor plumbing was installed in 1912 but

otherwise time stands still at Hittâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commodious manse.

Once surrounded by thousands of acres of prairie land, the house was an impressive sight on the ChicagoGalena Road, one of the busiest stagecoach trails in the Northwest but when the route was surveyed a half mile south the grand estate was barely able to be seen.

Samuel Hitt was born January 22, 1799 in Bourbon County, Kentucky.

The family moved to Ohio, then Maryland. He was actively interested in organizing businesses while he and his wife, Barbara Ann Hershey whom he married in 1823, were vitally interested in building northern Illinois, improving it in every way.

Quoting from J.W. Clintonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comprehensive scrapbook from the 1900â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s: â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are those yet living who will bear unequivocal testimony in favor of his kindness of heart and unpretending Christian charity to them and theirs in days of sickness and poverty. His prevailing preferring the happiness of others to his own. He was singularly averse frequently urged to permit the use of his name on the party ticket (he was a Whig) he never consented but once reluctantly when he was chosen for the State Legislature â&#x20AC;Ś among his numerous friends are many prominent East.â&#x20AC;?

This kind of description of Samuel Hitt is repeated time and again by the humble and the prominent. was because he believed so strongly in extending the northern boundary of Illinois to extend west to the Mississippi from the bottom of Lake Michigan so thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be more shoreline for docks and ports, an important consideration.

Need a general store? Hitt would build one and stock and staff it. A

unfortunately, the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Squire,â&#x20AC;? as he was lovingly called, died in November of 1859. He was buried with other of the family in Oakwood Cemetery at the West edge of Mt. Morris. Only sixty, Sam Hitt accomplished much during his lifetime.

One of Hittâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s employees was a young German immigrant coming from Lippe in 1850, Christian Zumdahl. He worked building Hittâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s log professor in charge received $300.00 house and cradling wheat. After two a year.

to see the house completed. The family was in part living there. It was with deep sadness that neighbors, friends far and near mourned the death of that generous gentleman. Samuel and wife, Barbara Hershey, had twelve children, only six of whom lived to adulthood.

Fifteen years passed following Hittâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death when with the usual economy Zumdahl had enough savings to purchase the stone house that awed most viewers. Although it is still now called the Hitt-Zumdahl House.

After all itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been the latter for a hundred forty years since the Zumdahl proprietorship continues. The story is truly American.

Risko advised that he apologized, and that information will be reported after the next streets and properties meeting.

On another issue, Smith mentioned that he had noticed that during council meetings, it seems as though a motion is made, a vote taken, and no discussion on the item. Aldermen Bergren responded, “During

lot of discussion takes place. After discussing it, the aldermen agree to present the item for a vote or not.

The idea behind the committee meetings is to keep the council meetings minimal.”

Smith continued. “It seems that so much business is taking place in the back room. You are in effect having another council meeting before the meeting.”

Tom Charles replied, “Everybody here has a chance to vote on something if they want to.”

“I don’t think it’s transparent, the way you are doing it,” Smith added.

Bergren stated, “If you are not there for the committee meetings, don’t say you don’t know.”

Risko noted, “I fully support the way we are doing it. It is effective and I won’t vote to change it.”

(Mount Carroll committee meetings are conducted as open, public meetings, and are subject to the Illinois Open meetings Act.)

Mayor Bates reported that MC Moto Park will be hosting a big race over Father’s Day weekend, that will be bringing a lot of people and business to town. Also, Chris Rogers who is in charge of the Flea Market is working to create a map of the downtown area. Bates advised him to contact the Chamber for information.

Bates also advised that a lot of talk is ongoing regarding the recent dog ordinance discussion. “Just so you know, there are people going around with the ordinance who were not at the meeting. It’s interpretation.

A brief discussion was held regarding Meeker’s reimbursement to the city for his training, but Alderman Charles advised that 13 of the 15 months has been paid back, and that if Meeker stays on part time, it will be taken care of with no problems.

Aldermen accepted the resignation with much regret.

pension negotiations are not even close to solving the problem. What are our school boards doing? They say their hands are tied because of state laws, etc. School board leaders need to publicly pressure lawmakers to allow local autonomy.

Noah Carmichael, from FehrGraham Engineering discussed the water line breaks. The leaks have been in all parts of town, not in just one area. March 21, 2013 Well #5 was brought on line. June 13, 2013 leaks started appearing. Well #4 was taken off line while the water tower was being painted, cleaned and repaired.

Water samples were taken from the Well #5 aquafer. It showed 1) Air in the system; 2) Water hammer-shocks when water starts and stops were low; 3) Pressure in pipes was low. There might be a problem with the control valve at well #5.

Engineers have been in contact with the valve manufacturers to see if the placement is correct on Well #5 and to see if it is working correctly.

Well #5 ran for about 6 months - Many leaking pipes. They started running Well #4 about a week ago.

They will be running it for several months to see if this makes any difference. They have also been in your water or if it is cloudy…be sure to call City Hall so they can Harvey Zuidema said he used to have a lime issue, now it is a magnesium issue. He had a two year old water heater with a rod in it that rusted. He thinks there is something in the water that is causing things to rust. If it happened to the rod in his water heater it could be happening in the entire

system, thus the old iron pipes starting to leak. was removed. Well #4 has a pipe that can pump into the tower or into the system. It is the only well that can pump directly into the tower. There was another thing removed at the time of the tower getting cleaned and painted that needs to be replaced. It is run by electricity and keeps the tank from rusting (usually removed in winter so it wouldn’t freeze then replaced in spring). We are looking at all possibilities.

Right now they are focusing on the air in the lines. If you have air come out of your faucet before the water starts to run or if you have rusty or cloudy water. Please call City Hall, Gary Tresenriter. If you don’t report it, the water department does not have any idea that it is happening. This will help the water department and the engineers with their research. So be sure to call City Hall at 815-772-7657 or your aldermen.

Three options are available: Buying 2-3 additional tablets, not engraving the name until additional tablets can be purchased, or using the back side center tablet. The three options will be discussed in detail at the next meeting in July.

The consent agenda was approved, including the May 27, 2014 Public hearing minutes; May 27th Regular session minutes; and Bills payable ($83,387.54) Items for consideration and possible action Ordinance #14-11 - Disposal of surplus property was approved.

City Administrator Barry Dykhuizen reported that the city is moving forward with getting rid of old computers since the city acquired new ones. The purpose of the ordinance is to ensure for the removal of all old data that could be on the old computers.

Tow Ordinance Mayor Pannier noted that Ordinance #14-12 has been discussed previously. Alderman Wood advised that several residents in her Ward were not happy with the portion advising that the registered owner or agents of the owner shall be liable to the City for an administrative fee of $200, in addition to any and all

Chief of Police Melton requested that the funds go to the Police Vehicle fund, which is not part of the General Fund.

Chief Melton noted that the PD normally tows 15-20 cars per year, with the majority of those resulting from an arrest. Mayor Pannier requested that funds received from towing should go into the general fund.

The ordinance was approved, with Alderman Wood voting “no.”

Ordinance #14-13 - The annual Prevailing wage ordinance was approved.

Ordinance #14-14 - Addition of new chapter 13-cable/video provider service fee was approved. Administrator Dykhuizen noted that the ordinance pertains to competition of cable providers, subjecting them all to the same franchise fee.

Security cameras Regarding security video cameras, Dykhuizen noted that funds were budgeted for the installation of cameras at City Hall.

Chief Melton noted that he would like to install video surveillance at City Hall to improve safety for visitors and workers. The cost is $5,024.84, with $5,000 being budgeted. Cameras would be installed at the front and main entrances, along with the rear public entrance, rear employee entrance, and also at the front desk.

A monitor will be in place at the Police Department, along with a recorder and controller. All of the video will be saved onto a hard drive. The equipment and installation will be provided by Lectronics. This measure was approved.

The 2014 seal coating list, including all of Park, Knox, and North Genessee from Route 30 to

has been ongoing to determine the location.

Well # 4 is being run solely without Well #5, and this will continue located. Gary Tresenriter stressed that residents need to call in rusty water, or air in their pipes, so it can be documented.

“We are doing everything we can to get these breaks to stop. While we haven’t seen results, it is not due to a lack of action,” Carmichael added.

An executive session was held for the lease or purchase of real property for the use of the public body, and for setting a price for sale or lease of property owned by the public body. No action was taken following executive session, and the meeting was adjourned.

Funding Requests Dominate Savanna City Council Meeting MICHAEL MILLER For The Prairie Advocate News SAVANNA — A number of new ordinances, including one that would outlaw the feeding of feral animals, and requests for funds from various city agencies, as well as a handful of resolutions, dominated the June 10th, 2014 meeting of the Savanna City Council at 333 Chicago Avenue.

The meeting was attended by Council members Bill Robinson, Ray Skiles, Peg Haffey, Lisa Robinson, Christine Lee, and Gary Scott Law, with Bill Sweeney and Jeff Griswold absent. Also attending were Mayor Tony McCombie, Police Chief Michael Moon, Fire Chief Shawn Picolotti, Public Works Superintendent John Lindeman and Comptroller/Treasurer Sheryl Sipe.

Committee Reports Haffey told the Council that the Hotel/Motel Committee had agreed to extend the contract of city website manager Gary Heide for six months, and recommended to transfer $4,000.00 in funds from the committhe annual celebration next month, and the full Council approved.

Haffey also delivered the Personnel/Ordinance/Public Relations Committee report, recommending one Nicholas Meeker, age 22, at full time for $16.00 per hour, with a starting date to be determined by Moon.

SENATE WEEK IN REVIEW

By IL State Senator Tim Bivins June 9-13, 2014 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Poker runs, cosmetic beads, home-baked cupcakes, Chicago pensions and cell phone taxes are all among the topics of legislation from the 2014 session of the General Assembly that have started moving to the Governor for his review and signature.

At the same time, Gov. Pat Quinnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s explanations for his Neighborhood Recovery Initiative continued to unravel as a major newspaper reported his administration sought to push money out the door prior to the 2010 election. This despite the Governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s earlier claims to the contrary. A wellknown watchdog group also reported new cases of funds being channeled to the politically connected.

Other states improve credit â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not Illinois As the Governor began signing Illinoisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; budget measures, the state stands at the brink of another credit downgrade. A recently published chart from Pew Research shows just how out-of-step the state has been with the rest of the nation.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s well known that Illinois continues to have the worst credit rating in the nation, but a historical comparison of the states since 2001 highlights a disturbing trend. As Illinoisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; falling credit rating runs in the opposite direction of the rest of the nation, other states are either improving their credit rating or remaining stable.

While surrounding states such as Indiana, Missouri and Iowa have excellent credit ratings, Illinois continues to regress as economic uncertainty continues to plague the business community. Even Californiaâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;which was once tied for last place with Illinoisâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;has improved debt and restored a balanced budget

in 2013.

Indiana shows an interesting contrast. The Hoosier state hit a low point in 2004 when its Standard & Poorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rating fell to AA status. In the following years, it has climbed back. Today Indianaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s AAA rating is the highest ranking available and higher than that stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ranking at the beginning of the 2000s. Illinois on the other hand, also had an AA ranking in 2004, but has steadily fallen since then and now holds an A-, which is lower than any other state.

Neighborhood Recovery stories unravel Despite Gov. Quinnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s claims that his controversial $55 million Neighborhood Recovery Initiative (NRI) did not distribute any funds until well after the last gubernatorial election, e-mails obtained by the Chicago Sun-Times indicate his administration did in fact attempt to distribute large amounts of taxpayer dollars just three weeks before the November 2010 election.

The revelation is the latest to emerge as several investigations into the failed program continue. A scathing audit of Gov. Quinnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s NRI released in February has so far given rise to federal and state criminal investigations and an ongoing investigation by the bipartisan Legislative Audit Commission, which has scheduled a meeting July 16.

Meanwhile, the Illinois Better Government Association reported new instances of funds being channeled to politically connected individuals and groups, including a grant of more than $466,000 to an organization tied to a strong political supporter of the Governor. The group paid teens and young adults $8.50 an hour to pass out anti-violence literature at public events.

The legislature has 30 days after a bill passes to send it to the Governor and the Governor then has 60 additional days to either sign or veto the bill.

Listed below are some of the more noteworthy measures signed into law recently.

Poker Runs (SB 3312/PA 98-0644): Addresses a problem with â&#x20AC;&#x153;poker runs,â&#x20AC;? which are typically charity events in which participants travel from one location to another collecting cards, with the winner being the person who, at the end of the day, has the best hand. The events are particularly popular with motorcycle enthusiasts. Typically, the winnings are either split with or donated to a particular charity.

A problem arose because the events were being regulated under the Charitable Games Act, forcing up the costs of compliance and making them impractical for the small fundraisers they typically represent. The measure moves â&#x20AC;&#x153;poker runsâ&#x20AC;? from the Charitable Games Act, which is regulated

Annual Drinking Water Quality Report:

SHANNON

Page A15

IL0150300

Annual Water Quality Report for the period of January 1 to December 31, 2013.

This report is intended to provide you with important information about your drinking water and the efforts made by the water system to provide safe drinking water.

The source of drinking water used by SHANNON is Ground Water.

For more information regarding this report contact: JASON DeMICHELE, (815) 864-2195.

SOURCE OF DRINKING WATER The source of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturallyoccurring minerals and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pickup substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity.

Contaminants that may be present in source water include: - Microbial contaminants, such asviruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations, and wildlife.

- Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, which can be naturally-occurring or result from urban storm water runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharge, oil and gas production, mining, or farming.

- Pesticides and herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban storm water runoff, and residential uses.

- Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations urban storm water runoff, and septic systems.

- Radioactive contaminants, which can be naturally-occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.

Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the EPAs Safe Drinking Water Hotline at (800) 426-4791.

In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, EPA prescribes regulations which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. FDA regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health.

Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population.

Immuno-compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDs or other immune system disorders, some elderly and infants can be particularly at risk from infections.

These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDEC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800426-4791).

If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. We cannot control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has been sitting several hours, you an minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your water tested. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.

Source Water Assessment We want our valued customers to be informed about their water quality. If you would like to learn more, please feel welcome to attend any of our regularly scheduled meetings. The source water assessment for our supply has been completed by the Illinois EPA. If you would like a copy of this information, please stop by City Hall or call our water operator at (815) 864-2195. To view a summary version of the completed Source Water Assessments, including: Importance of Source Water; Susceptibility to Contamination Determination; and documentation/recommendation of Source Water Protection Efforts, you may access the Illinois EPA website at http://www.epa.state.il.us/cgi-bin/wp/swap-fact-sheets.pl.

Based on information obtained in a Well Site Survey published in 1991 by the Illinois EPA, one potential source is located within 1,000 feet of the wells. The Illinois EPA has determined that the Shannon Community Water Supplyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s source water is not susceptible to contamination. This determination is based on a number of criteria including; monitoring conducted at the entry point to the distribution system; and available hydro geologic data on the wells.

Annual Drinking Water Quality Report:

SHANNON

Page A15

IL0150300

Annual Water Quality Report for the period of January 1 to December 31, 2013.

This report is intended to provide you with important information about your drinking water and the efforts made by the water system to provide safe drinking water.

The source of drinking water used by SHANNON is Ground Water.

For more information regarding this report contact: JASON DeMICHELE, (815) 864-2195.

SOURCE OF DRINKING WATER The source of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturallyoccurring minerals and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pickup substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity.

Contaminants that may be present in source water include: - Microbial contaminants, such asviruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations, and wildlife.

- Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, which can be naturally-occurring or result from urban storm water runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharge, oil and gas production, mining, or farming.

- Pesticides and herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban storm water runoff, and residential uses.

- Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations urban storm water runoff, and septic systems.

- Radioactive contaminants, which can be naturally-occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.

Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the EPAs Safe Drinking Water Hotline at (800) 426-4791.

In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, EPA prescribes regulations which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. FDA regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health.

Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population.

Immuno-compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDs or other immune system disorders, some elderly and infants can be particularly at risk from infections.

These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDEC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800426-4791).

If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. We cannot control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has been sitting several hours, you an minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your water tested. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.

Source Water Assessment We want our valued customers to be informed about their water quality. If you would like to learn more, please feel welcome to attend any of our regularly scheduled meetings. The source water assessment for our supply has been completed by the Illinois EPA. If you would like a copy of this information, please stop by City Hall or call our water operator at (815) 864-2195. To view a summary version of the completed Source Water Assessments, including: Importance of Source Water; Susceptibility to Contamination Determination; and documentation/recommendation of Source Water Protection Efforts, you may access the Illinois EPA website at http://www.epa.state.il.us/cgi-bin/wp/swap-fact-sheets.pl.

Based on information obtained in a Well Site Survey published in 1991 by the Illinois EPA, one potential source is located within 1,000 feet of the wells. The Illinois EPA has determined that the Shannon Community Water Supplyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s source water is not susceptible to contamination. This determination is based on a number of criteria including; monitoring conducted at the entry point to the distribution system; and available hydro geologic data on the wells.

Rauner Visits Savanna to Share Ideas for a Better Illinois TONY CARTON For the Prairie Advocate News SAVANNA — Republican gubernatorial candidate Bruce Rauner toured the new M1 Metform facility at its Highway 84/Savanna campus Friday, June 13 with MacLean-Fogg Chairman Barry MacLean and MFCS President Duncan MacLean.

Following the tour Rauner visited with Metform employees and repeated his campaign messages of rebuilding the Illinois business environment and getting politicians out of politics before opening a question and answer session.

“In Illinois, regulations are hostile to business,” he said, in response to queries about his ideas for building the job market. “We have more red tape, regulations, approvals and permits and fees and charges; our worker’s comp system is very punishing to business. We have the highest worker’s comp costs in the Midwest.”

He said if elected, his intention is to work very closely with the

legislature to change what he has referred to as, “The Wrong Deal for Illinois.”

“A few years ago, the legislature approved a worker ’s compensation law that was highly touted for its bipartisan ‘reforms’,” Rauner said. “Despite the acclaim it received at the time, in the end it accomplished very little. Illinois’ worker’s compensation system remains uncompetitive with neighboring states and our economy continues to suffer.”

He said things get done when for the good of Illinois.

“There are some good legislators down there,” Rauner said. “I will work closely with them to create an environment to create more jobs of higher quality, to make

Everyone is encouraged to come for this fascinating event. From

families to attend,” said Rauner.

“I know we can improve education in Illinois because I’ve seen it happen.”

He repeated his stand on term limits during his comments on government reform.

“No governor should be allowed to serve for more than 8 years, and the legislature should be term limited as well,” Rauner said.

birdwatchers to experienced birders will all enjoy the surprises which await when these nest boxes are opened. Children will enjoy a fun prizes for all.

Also on display will be different types of nests and you will have the opportunity to learn the basics of bluebird monitoring.

“Once we change that culture down there where we don’t have career politicians I think that will change their mindset and I think we will get some better legislation down there. It will take a tough vote, but it’s the right answer.”

He said they’ve been collecting signatures to get term limits on the ballot and let the voters decide the issue.

“We got double the signatures we needed and they tried to throw the petitions out; they tried to challenge the signatures, but they were good and now term limits is going to be on the ballot November 4, so it’s an exciting time,” Rauner said.

“We need to change the culture

get things done.”

Rauner noted the addition of a hundred jobs at the Savanna Metform plant as a shining example of growth in a state otherwise seemingly hostile to business.

“They are very innovative and have come up with ways to implement cost reductions and invest in capital equipment so that they can be highly competitive wherever they are located,” he said. “It made sense for them to stay in Illinois because they’d already had a plant here for 30 plus years and expanding right next door leveraged their work force structure.”

He also complimented the Metform partnership with area community colleges and civic leaders.

“I, as governor, want to work with community leaders like you’ve got here to create a pro-jobs environment so more companies come into these communities.”

MacLean-Fogg Chairman Barry MacLean said he thinks Rauner is a winner. “I think he is a change agent who is going to make a long-term difference in Illinois,” MacLean said.

“Illinois has to have a change otherwise companies like ours will not expand here.”

Capitol Report

Janice Geerts

Now that session has adjourned until the fall, I will be out in the district traveling to events and meeting with constituents. I invite anyone in the district to sue or to schedule a time to have me attend an event you may have.

It’s important to know my door is always open and I am here to serve you in any way I can.

This week Governor Quinn signed a bill into law that changes how poker runs are regulated in the State of Illinois. Currently, under the old law, charitable games licenses are granted by the Department of Revenue (IDOR). The nonrefundable fee of $400, and each premise-applicant must pay a separate nonrefundable fee of $50.

Poker runs are operated with the voluntary help of multiple premises, and the administrative duty of paying a string of fees (with separate applications and fees for each separate

late you would know an American Black Bear has made its way to the area. There have been multiple reports about a sighting of the bear until a Winnebago County resident on their property and took pictures.

The law Governor Quinn is future would add American Black Bears, Grey Wolves, and Cougars to the list of protected animals in Illinois. Sightings of these impending protected animals should be reported by contacting the Illinois Department of Natural Resources to better serve the safety of humans and the animals themselves.

The dates have been released for

Janice Geerts, 69, of Milledgeville, went home to be with the Lord Sunday, June 8, 2014.

She was a hair dresser, and did hair at home for over 50 years. She also worked at Shannon Nursing Home for 25 years, along with farming with her husband.

Janice was born July 29, 1944, in Sterling, the daughter of Harry and Jeannetta (Schaver) Vogel.

She married Robert I. Geerts Sr. on November 9, 1962 in Fulton. She was a member of Faith Reformed Church in Lanark. Janice taught Sunday school for many years, enjoyed gospel music, was an avid reader, and liked to share her books with others.

Survivors include her husband, Robert; one daughter, Paula (Brian) Beveroth, of Sterling; two sons, Robert I. (Michelle) Geerts Jr, of Milledgeville, and Richard (Theresa) Geerts, of Lanark; and seven grandchildren, Zack and Cameron Geerts, Skylar Mitchelle, Amanda, Amelia, Andrew Beveroth, and Allyn Geerts.

She was preceded in death by her parents, and two brothers, Allyn and Elwyn Vogel.

Visitation will be held Wednesday, June 11, 2014 from 5pm to 8pm at Schilling Funeral Home in Sterling. Funeral services will be Thursday, June 12, 2014 at 10:30am at Faith Reformed Church in Lanark,

House will reconvene on November 19, 20, 21 and December 2, 3, 4. I urge constituents who will be in participants.

The new law makes it clear that the Capitol building those days to the best way to regulate would be to enable the local police to treat a the legislature in action from the poker run the same way as they treat House gallery.

I believe President Herbert Hoover said it best, “Being a politician is a poor profession. Being a public servant is a noble one.”
