New committee preps for disaster Public input sought on reducing flood, other natural damages STAFF REPORT news@saukvalley.com 800-798-4085, ext. 5501

MORRISON – A committee has formed, and public comment is being sought on a countywide plan to identify activities and projects needed to reduce damages caused by natural hazards such as floods, snowstorms, thunderstorms, tornadoes, and ice storms.

The Whiteside Coun-

IN BRIEF

ROCK FALLS | HENNEPIN CANAL

Help needed at school supply store

Money has always been elusive City working on lease agreement, wish list

BY PAM EGGEMEIER

ROCK FALLS – When it comes to the Hennepin Canal, history tells us that nothing comes easily.

The Idea of building it as a cheaper alternative to rail commerce was devised in the mid1830s, but another 6 decades would pass before the federal government found the funding to approve the project.

Work on the canal finally started in 1892, and it was opened in 1907. The fact that it took so long to build made it virtually useless for commercial transportation from the start. The canal then became a haven

for recreational enthusiasts.

In 1951, the federal government decided it wanted no responsibility for the canal, and the state finally decided to bring it under the auspices of the Illinois Department of Natural Resources.

Years of severe budget cuts have made it increasingly difficult for IDNR to maintain the canal, and now a lease agreement is being drawn up that would cede 2.2 miles of the canal to the city of Rock Falls.

After more than a century, city officials find it baffling that so many people wanted the canal, but neglected to devise a plan to take care of it. “After all these years, neither the federal nor state governments made provisions for maintenance of the canal,� City Administrator Robbin Blackert said. “The responsibility to pay for upkeep has just been passed

Searing, city building inspector and member of the Hennepin CanalTrails Committee.

When canals aren’t dredged, silt builds up on the bottom, making it difficult for boats to move on the waterway. It also can impact plant life, water quality, drainage and aesthetics.

Wescott said dredging the canal could cost up to $300,000, which will fall under the city’s general maintenance responsibilities.

The dredging application has been filed, and samples are being taken to check for contaminants.

In the meantime, the city and local volunteer groups are working on smaller maintenance projects in the canal and trail areas. A group led by Firehouse of God Ministries pastor Brian Tribley has been painting benches and a barn, pressurewashing buildings and equipment, and cleaning up brush. The city

Rochelle Veterinary Hospital

has budgeted some money to work on the restrooms at the Arduini Boat Ramp.

The committee is working on a wish list of items for the entire recreational area, chairman Jim Schuneman said. “We need to put a long-term plan together complete with cost assessments,� Wescott said.

Schuneman said the list will be presented to the council when it is completed.

along over the years.�

While many recreational areas collect minimal portage fees to help with upkeep, the city’s hands are tied on that option. “Federal money was used for the ramp and canal, so we can’t charge at all,� Mayor Bill Wescott said. “No plan was ever developed for general maintenance.�

It’s unlikely that fees could be part of the lease agreement now being crafted with IDNR, because it still technically belongs to the state. Under the lease agreement, general maintenance duties would fall to the city, while bigger issues with the locks and water would remain with the state.

One big job on the maintenance list is dredging the canal, which has never been done, the city says. “There is no funding mechanism for dredging, and it really needs to be done,� said Mark

will.

This is a “living plan� that will be updated each year, allowing participants to add projects to the plan. “Typically, plans are developed and then the public is asked to comment,� Janssen said. “With this hazard mitigation plan, input from the public will be gathered before and during its development. We will also hold a public forum after the plan is drafted, but our focus will be to gather input before the draft is completed.�

DIXON

Woman guilty of misdemeanor computer tampering Four felony counts dropped; $10,000 in restitution paid

BY CHRISTI WARREN

DIXON – A Dixon woman pleaded guilty to misdemeanor computer tampering and must pay $10,000 in restitution in a 2013 case that originally accused her of defrauding an elderly woman of more than $150,000.

Audrey Stanley Smith, 33, pleaded guilty June 19 in Lee County Court.

She applied the $10,000 bond she had posted to her restitution requirement.

According to court records, Smith made a series of withdrawals from the Dixon woman’s bank accounts and took out a loan on her property. The transactions involved accounts at Amcore and Midland States banks and occurred between Aug. 2, 2006, and April 15, 2010, court documents say.

Smith was manager of the Oregon branch of Rockford-based Amcore Bank, which was sold to Effing-

Audrey Stanley Smith ham-based Midland States Bank in January 2011. She was terminated in April 2012 for a “willful violation of bank policy� and “unprofessional and negligent behavior as a banking center manager,� claims that do not relate to any trans-

action involved in this case, the documents say.

The case was prosecuted by the state attorney general’s office. In exchange for Smith’s guilty plea, felony charges of theft, financial institution fraud, financial exploitation of the elderly, and wire fraud were dropped, and a fifth, computer fraud, was amended to the misdemeanor.

When asked why the case only resulted in a misdemeanor conviction, Maura Possle, press secretary for the attorney general’s

office, said the decision was based on the evidence the office would be able to produce. “The resolution was reached based on the evidence in this case, and in consultation with the victim, the most critical aspect of the resolution is that the defendant is required to pay restitution,� Possle said. “After carefully analyzing all the evidence that could be introduced at trial, $10,000 was the amount stolen from the victim.�

EDUCATION | FINANCIAL LITERACY

U.S. teens average in ‘essential skill’ Shanghai takes highest score on assessment WASHINGTON (AP) – In an increasingly global economy, just 1 in 10 teenagers around the world is able to make some key – but complex – financial decisions, including choosing among various loans or analyzing invoices and pay slips.

The picture is no better in the United States, where only 9.4 percent of 15-yearolds were able to answer the most difficult questions on an international test of their financial knowledge and skills. More than 1 in 6 U.S. students did not reach the baseline level of

proficiency in financial literacy. At best, those students could make only simple decisions on everyday spending, said a report released Wednesday by the Paris-based Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.

OECD called financial literacy “an essential life skill� for teens.

Already at 15, many have bank accounts and debit cards. And “many students nearing the end of compulsory education also have to decide, with their parents, whether to continue with postcompulsory education and how to finance such education,� the report said.

Alex McClain, 15, of Anderson Township, Ohio, does not have a bank account. But he says taking a personal

The most difficult asked students to analyze two loan proposals with differing rates and terms and choose the better offer.

Michael Davidson, head of early childhood education and schools division for the OECD, says successful schools don’t let students fall behind.

Shanghai schools, he said, perform well because they identify students who are struggling and provide the support those children need.

In the U.S., just 19 states require a course in personal finance to be offered in high school, according to a 2014 report from the Council for Economic Education. Illinois is not one of them.

Get them to the Greek Pasta salad dish will please party

BY SUSAN SELASKY MCT News Service

A

n outdoor cookout or potluck is not complete without some sort of a pasta salad. It’s the go-to salad that goes a long way. And it’s the type of salad where just about anything goes. Use leftover chopped vegetables, lean cooked and cubed meats and combine with a creamy dressing or vinaigrette.

When you make a pasta salad to be served cold, it’s best to cook the pasta al dente, rinse and drain it. Spread the cooked pasta it on a jelly-roll pan to cool completely to room temperature and dry. This helps the pasta retain some of the starchiness so the vinaigrette will coat the pasta, but not completely soak in.

Today’s Greek pasta salad uses cavatappi pasta. It’s a short, “S”shaped pasta tube that resembles a corkscrew.

Most all of the timing in this recipe is in prepping the vegetables. And the dressing benefits from some Feta cheese whipped in. You can use the dressing on a mixed greens salad, too.

Greek Pasta Salad Makes: 48 (½-cup servings) Preparation time: 30 minutes Total time: 45 minutes Adjust the salt as needed. The olives and Feta cheese will contribute to the saltiness. Cavatappi is a short, “S”-shaped pasta tube that resembles a corkscrew.

1 cup chopped flat leaf parsley Dressing: ¼ cup red wine vinegar 2 cloves garlic, peeled 4 ounces fat-free, reduced fat or regular Feta cheese, crumbled 1 tablespoon dried oregano 1 tablespoon sugar ¼ teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon black pepper 1 teaspoon all-purpose seasoning 1¼ cup olive oil

Directions To make salad: Cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water.

Spread the pasta out on a baking sheet to dry for 30 to 45 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare all the remaining salad ingredients and place them in a large serving bowl. Add the pasta and toss together.

To make dressing: In a blender or food processor place the red wine vinegar, garlic, Feta cheese,

oregano, sugar, salt, pepper and seasoning blend.

Pulse to chop up the garlic and cheese. With the machine running, slowly and in a steady stream, add the olive oil and process until emulsified. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. The dressing should be salty enough from the Feta cheese; try not to over-salt.

Pour the dressing over the salad. Toss to thoroughly combine and serve. Or you can make

both the salad and the dressing a day in advance and combine just before serving.
