June 23, 2015 DIXON | FLASH FOOD UPDATE
Collapse was ‘bound to happen’ Council unanimously authorizes emergency action for repairs BY BRENDEN WEST
DIXON – After spending 3 days assessing the damage at West Seventh Street, engineers say culverts under the road were so deficient and outdated that collapse was inevitable, with or without Monday’s flash flood. The city of Dixon is facing an emergency reconstruction project that will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Seventh Street will be closed for at least a month. Dixon sustained 2.8 inches of rainfall Monday, causing a flash flood and exposing infrastructural weak points south of the 700 block of South Monroe Avenue. With water pouring down hills into the low-elevation region, a nearby creek that filters through
a galvanized culvert under Seventh Street overflowed, causing houses in the vicinity to flood. The street collapsed around 8 p.m. Monday, opening a hole approximately 15 feet in diameter. A water main and shutoff valve both broke, a natural gas line was suspended, and the adjacent sidewalk collapsed, forcing street closure between Monroe and Depot avenues. Brian Converse, a structural engineer with Willett Hofmann & Associates Inc., said the creek flowed into an 8-inch diameter metal culvert under the street, allowing stormwater to continue north. The culvert, he said, was corroded at the bottom. “[The flood] was eating away all the material underneath that culvert,� Converse said. “It
kept sucking down, creating a bigger and bigger hole until finally it failed. ‌ It just created a lot of pressure at once, and finally everything just gave way.â€? Converse corroborated other sentiments in the city that neglectful maintenance of the road was a major factor in Monday’s incident. “Due to the age of the structure and its condition, it was bound to happen at some point, yes,â€? he said. The City Council held a special meeting Thursday morning with Willett Hofmann engineers and authorized the use of city funds to begin the reconstruction process immediately. Reconstruction will involve the Army Core of Engineers and Illinois Department of Transportation. Dollars for the project

He doesn’t want a Band-aid but a fix that will prevent another incident for the long haul. “Let’s get it done, and let’s get it done right,� Arellano said. The city will construct more sustainable concrete culverts at Seventh Street and nearby Ninth Street, which also expe-

what outside funding options – such as grants or relief funding – might exist for Dixon. “I’m not optimistic in that regard,� Nord said. The situation, to him, highlights not just crumbling infrastructure, but the city’s issues with storm drainage. “The whole town needs to be reviewed for drainage, and have infrastructure that handles drainage,� he said.

Freed man denied certificate by judge CHICAGO – A judge has denied a certificate of innocence to a man whose murder conviction was overturned. Cook County Judge Thomas Byrne said Thursday that Alstory Simon had shown his innocence, but had actively helped bring about his own conviction. The judge said Simon’s actions, including a public apology, gave credence to a “fiction” concocted by others to free Anthony Porter. Simon’s videotaped confession led authorities to free Porter less than 48 hours before his scheduled execution in 1999. Simon spent nearly 15 years in prison before he was cleared by prosecutors in October. He has sued Northwestern University and a professor he alleges conspired to frame him. Simon’s attorney Terry Ekl says he will appeal Thursday’s ruling. ___ Information from: Chicago Tribune, http://www.chicagotribune. comt

DIXON – Dixon Park District officials are growing more and more concerned about the sea wall at President’s Park. The embankment is a structure that prevents nearby property from sliding into the Rock River. Because it is outdated, Executive Director Deb Carey is fearful and has made addressing the sea wall the park board’s top priority this year. “It was built many, many years ago, and has become an integral part of the infrastructure in Dixon,” she said Wednesday. “If we did not have that sea wall, it would be a completely different situation. That location would erode.” On Wednesday, old and new park board members toured the district’s 30 parks. Board President Ron Pritchard and his son, fellow board member Steve Pritchard, said it’s top of mind for this year. “It’s pretty substan-

DIXON – Despite having the low bid, Fischer Excavating Inc. lost out on the $2.4 million River Street reconstruction project at this morning’s special council meeting. A majority of members said the company was not “the lowest responsible bidder” because it had yet to complete downtown streetscape work it was hired to do in November. To start River Street work on schedule on July 6, the city needed to move forward, Councilman Christopher Bishop said. “I don’t know how we can guarantee the [streetscape] project will be done because it hasn’t been done yet,” Bishop said. Company owner Wayne Fischer explained that delays in the streetscape project related to unexpected concrete pop-ups
that his group needed to study before renovating. He also said one of his subcontractors had caused delays, but added that most of the work will be complete by Monday. Not everyone on the council agreed with the 3-1 decision. Councilman Jesse Arjes was absent, and Councilman Mike Venier was the lone “no” vote against awarding the bid to Martin & Co. Excavating for $2,455,511.58 – $797.81 higher than Fischer’s bid. “I think there’s a combination of blame that can be associated with this project,” Venier said. “We didn’t award this project as a city council, and as a city council, we’ve learned a lot through this process. … Mr. Fischer has given us his word that he will fulfill his contract to his absolute detail. I think he has shown good will to complete the streetscape project.” Along with Bishop, Mayor Li Arellano Jr. and Councilman Mitch Tucker also voted to give the job to Martin.

Residents wait for answers – again 2 service interruptions in as many years has city searching for answers BY PAM EGGEMEIER ROCK FALLS – A citywide boil order was lifted Thursday morning, freeing residents from having to turn on the stove after they turned on the tap, following the city’s second water shutdown in 16 months. The city had only recently provided some closure to residents after the Feb. 13, 2014, wastewater infrastructure failure that left the city without its water supply for 18 hours. After months of investigations and closed-session council meetings, the city announced that ratepayers would not pick up any of the costs incurred.

On April 21, the council approved a settlement agreement with the city’s engineering firm, Willett, Hofmann & Associates. The firm took responsibility for paying for emergency measures, the ensuing investigation, and the cost of fixing the sewer system, totaling $815,379,15. At that meeting, Mayor Bill Wescott shared with residents some of the information that had been discussed at length behind closed doors. “The investigation was conducted by Stanley Consultants Inc. of Muscatine, and it was determined that the operation interruption, at least in part,

was caused by caustic gases,” Wescott said. The mayor said some of the blame had been traced back to Willett, Hofmann & Associates. “It was also found that the deficiency in certain areas of design allowed infiltration of the control panel,” Wescott said. The city and the engineering firm managed to avoid a courtroom in reaching the agreement, saving the taxpayers money. Stanley stayed on to
oversee nearly $600,000 in planned fixes to the wastewater system. Canton-based Leander Construction was hired to start doing the work sometime next month. “We will remediate the whole main lift facility to make sure this never happens again,” Wescott said in April. But before the door could be completely closed on last year’s sewer plant emergency, stormwater flooded the main lift station this week, again taking down the water supply. Residents were without water for about 14 hours and endured another boil order for an additional 12 hours. Now residents must again wait for answers

to an infrastructure failure. Stanley Consultants is again looking for answers at the main lift station and throughout the entire sewer system. Data is being gathered from a technology system that monitors and controls the entire sewer network. Although most of the work that had been scheduled after the first investigation had not yet been done, city officials say those issues had nothing to do with this week’s emergency. “The engineers have told us that this would have happened, even if that work had been done,” City Administrator Robbin Blackert said.
Blackert said it will take a while before Stanley will be able to provide specifics on what happened to allow a deluge of stormwater into the sanitary sewer system. “We’re looking at the flows from all of the lift stations, not just the main facility,” Blackert said. The latest problem will undoubtedly bring a different set of modifications to the previous plans for fixing the wastewater system. The city hopes to expedite the process. “This shouldn’t delay the work very much,” Blackert said. “We are going to move things along as quickly as possible.”

SAVORY SEAWEED
No reason to fear this versatile vegetable

Toasted nori: Seaweed can be used in more than just sushi rolls, like as a crispy salad garnish. BY ELLEN KANNER Tribune News Service
Leave the little fishies alone. Try the other sea food – seaweed. Oh, don’t make a face. Also called sea vegetables, seaweed offers protein, amino acids and oceans of vitamins and essential minerals, including iodine, iron and potassium. There are 30 edible varieties of seaweed: • Mild red seaweed including agar, dulse and nori (sushi wrap): Japanese infants teethe on it. • Richer brown seaweed like arame, kelp, kombu and wakame, a chilled emerald-green salad served in Japanese restaurants: a terrific summer refresher. • Lemony/salty green seaweed – sea lettuce – is beloved throughout the United Kingdom, where it grows abundantly along the coast. Choose organic seaweed, avoid hijiki, a brown seaweed with high arsenic levels, and don’t confuse carrageen,
or Irish moss, with its derivative, carrageenan. Carrageenan is used to thicken processed foods, including many plantbased milks. The web is tangled with claims carrageenan contributes to gut inflammation. The jury’s still out. However, carrageen in whole form has been eaten and enjoyed on both sides of the Atlantic for centuries. The Irish use it instead of gelatin. In the Caribbean, they whiz it with cinnamon and nutmeg into a thick, sweet shake. Seaweed of one kind or another has been a healing dietary mainstay almost everywhere but here. The tide may be turning. A shoal of seaweed snacks has washed up on our shores. New faves: • Seasnax Chomperz (1 ounce, $3.99), curls of organic seaweed with a crispy rice flour coating, are GMO-free and available in four flavors, including jalapeño.
They’re slightly seaweedy and, just like the package promises, strangely addictive. One serving contains 40 calories, 2 fat grams, 85 milligrams sodium, no fiber, but 4 protein grams. • Gim is Korean for seaweed, and Annie Chun aptly names her new product Gimme Organic Seaweed Rice Chips (4 ounces, $4.99). Made with organic seaweed, brown rice, lentils and sesame seeds, they’re like tortilla chips but crunchier. Varieties include teriyaki, wasabi and sea salt, all with a mild seaweed taste. One ounce has 130 calories, 7 g fat, 90 mg sodium, 1 g fiber and 2 g protein. Both are gluten-free and at Whole Foods. While you’re there, step up your seaweed. Dried nori sheets like Emerald Cove Organic Pacific Sushi Nori (.9 ounces, $6.49) make homemade maki a breeze. Even easier, toss a nori sheet in the blender

Miama Maki This is not traditional Japanese sushi. Ix-nay fish in favor of seasonal produce, Florida flavors and a hit of sriracha. Quinoa replaces white sushi rice for a whole-grain boost. Makes: 4 to 6 servings 2 cups water 1 cup quinoa, rinsed 2 teaspoons rice vinegar Pinch of sea salt 4 organic nori sheets 1 avocado, sliced skinny (about ¼ inches) ½ pound firm tofu, pressed and sliced skinny (about ¼ inches) 4 radishes (or ½ daikon), sliced skinny (about ¼ inches) 1 handful fresh cilantro, coarsely chopped A few judicious squirts of sriracha Bring water to boil in a medium saucepan. Add rinsed, drained quinoa. Cover, reduce heat to simmer and cook for
about 20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed, the quinoa is fluffed and has popped out its little endosperm tails. While the quinoa is still hot, gently mix in rice vinegar and sea salt. Set aside to cool. Take a nori sheet and place sheet shiny side up. Cover evenly with a layer of quinoa, about 3⁄4 cup, leaving a 1-inch bare strip at the top. Place a single slice of avocado, tofu and radish in a narrow strip at the bottom end. Top with a sprinkle of chopped
cilantro and squirt on a skinny stripe of sriracha. Rinse your hands in cool water. Start at the bottom end of the nori sheet, and with damp hands, roll up firmly. When you come to the top, moisten the exposed nori strip. This will help the nori to adhere. Roll all the way up and press firmly to seal. Repeat with remaining nori sheets. Dip a sharp knife in ice water and slice each maki roll into 6 to 8 slices, about 3 ⁄4-inch thick.
Notes and tips Try other nontraditional maki fillings, like thinly sliced mango, red pepper, marinated mushrooms and tempeh, a few edamame, lightly steamed asparagus or a handful of arugula. Quinoa may be cooked and cooled a day ahead. Keep well-covered and refrigerate until ready to use. Prep and slice
vegetables and tofu in advance so they’re ready when you assemble maki. Sushi mats are helpful but not essential. Use a good sharp knife for slicing rolls. Sriracha can be found in most gourmet markets, Asian markets and in the ethnic section of many supermarkets.

NO INDIVIDUAL, unless licensed or holding a permit as a childcare facility, may cause to be published any advertisement soliciting a child care service.* A childcare facility that is licensed or operating under a permit issued by the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services may publish advertisements of the services for which it is lispecifically censed or issued a permit. Sauk Valley Media strongly urges any parent or guardian to verify the validity of the license of any facility before placing a child in it's care. *Family homes that care for no more than three (3) children under the age of twelve or which receive only children from a single household, for less than 24 hours per day, are exempt from licensure as day care homes. The three children to whom this exemption applies includes the family's natural or adopted children and any other persons under the age of 12 whether related or unrelated to the operator of the day care home.
