Some of the fastestcardiac treatment timesin the nation? Amazing.
During a heart attack, a delay in care means damage to your heart. Which is why
Elmhurst Memorial Hospital is proud to provide some of the fastest arrival to
treatment times in the country. Last year alone, our average door to treatment time
was just 60 minutes. With a national average of over an hour and a half, that’s a
difference that saves heart muscle and lives.

“Shall the Board of Educa-tion of Glenbard TownshipHigh School District Number87, DuPage County, Illinois,improve the sites of and alter,repair and equip each of theSchool District’s four high
schools – Glenbard East, Glen-bard North, Glenbard Southand Glenbard West and issuebonds of said School Districtto the amount of $35,000,000for the purpose of paying thecosts thereof?”
D-87 officials, parent group seek support for referendumBy MATTHEW [email protected]
GLEN ELLYN – Votersheaded to the polls this monthin Glenbard Township HighSchool District 87 will be askedto support the issuance of $35million in bonds to fund facili-ty projects at the district’s fourschools.
If approved, the $35 millionwould extend the district’sbond debt– currently due toexpire in Fiscal Year 2026–through Fiscal Year 2039, ac-cording to a report preparedby PMA Securities, the dis-trict’s financial adviser.
Residents’ tax rates wouldnot increase as a result of thebond issuance, said District 87Superintendent David Larson.
“What we are asking is toadd additional bonds on with-out any increase to the prop-erty tax [rate],” Larson said.“It’s really about investing inour number one asset, whichis our students.”
The referendum questionwill appear on the March 18election ballot.
Glenbard 4 Kids, a par-ent-led ballot initiative groupformed in December 2013, hasbeen busy rallying referen-dum support in the communi-ties that make up the four highschools.
“It is needed for infrastruc-
ture repairs we believe haveto be made to the four Glen-bard schools,” Glenbard 4 Kidsspokesman Steve Garwood said.
“From a safety, securityand educational standpoint,this is for the benefit of thekids,” Garwood said. “Some ofthe repairs needed would re-place mechanical structuresthat are [about] 50-years-old.”
The $35 million is expectedto be used to fund $8 million ofprojects in summer 2016, $18million in summer 2017 and$9 million in summer 2018, ac-
cording to the PMA report.The district’s Board of Ed-
ucation voted unanimouslyin November 2013 to place themeasure on the ballot.
Along with Glenbard 4 Kids,the League of Women Voters
of Glen Ellyn has endorsed thedistrict’s referendum.
However, Taxpayers Unit-ed of America President andFounder Jim Tobin disagreeswith the referendum – and anyother ballot initiatives by pub-lic school districts seeking toraise taxes.
Instead, the Chicago-basedtaxpayer group pushes for taxcuts at the local, state and fed-eral level, Tobin said.
“One of the best places tostart cutting is to defeat all theproperty tax increases that areput on the ballot,” said Tobin,adding that there are five oth-er referendums his organiza-tion is targeting on the March18 ballot.
The group has been distrib-uting fliers calling for District87 taxpayers to vote “no” onthe referendum.
“This is nothing more thana money grab by greedy gov-ernment bureaucrats whowill tax everything they canto prop up their own salariesand pensions,” the literaturestates.
If the referendum is suc-cessful, the bonds will supportthe district’s Master FacilityPlan, which includes $100 mil-lion of work to be executedduring the course of 10 years, amajority of which will includeinfrastructure improvementsand renovations of class-
rooms, common areas and out-door spaces.
The district will fund theremaining $65 million of itsMaster Facility Plan throughits Operations and Mainte-nance budget, which is about$6.5 million per year. Theboard previously approved is-suing bonds to borrow $20 mil-lion that will be paid off usingthat budget.
“It is a significant sharingbetween taxpayers and theDistrict 87 board,” Garwoodsaid.
The Master Facility Plan,reviewed and approved by theBoard of Education in Decem-ber 2011, was developed byLegat Architects of Chicagowith input from the districtand community members,who participated in severalmonths of focus groups.
A steering committee, com-prised of board members, staff,faculty, administrators, stu-dents, parents and communitymembers, was also formed togather feedback.
Legat Architects originallyidentified $179 million worthof work to be completed duringthe plan’s 10-year cycle. How-ever, the district scaled theplan back to $100 million afterdetermining that the remain-ing $79 million of work will beaddressed in the following 10years.

Bald eagle recovers after being shotBy ANNA SCHIER
GLEN ELLYN – After abrush with danger, a bald ea-gle is on the mend at Willow-brook Wildlife Center in GlenEllyn.
The bird was brought toWillowbrook on Feb. 20, afterbeing found in south suburbanOak Lawn with a bullet in itsleft wing, said Education SiteManager Sandy Fejt.
Its rescuer was Oak LawnAnimal Control Officer BarryAdamczyk, who said he re-ceived a call from a residentabout an injured eagle in theirneighbor’s yard.
Adamczyk said he wasskeptical and thought the birdwas likely a hawk. But whenhe arrived at the caller’s home,there was no denying what hesaw perched on the fence.
“I was shocked,” he said. “Ididn’t believe I was looking ata bald eagle.”
Catching the bird took mereminutes, as it could only fly a
few feet off the ground with itsinjury.
“He didn’t put up a fight,”said Adamczyk, who has nev-er encountered a bald eagleduring his time working in an-imal control.
In addition to its broken
wing, the eagle suffered inter-nal trauma and was dehydrat-ed and malnourished, mostlikely because it couldn’t fly orhunt after being shot, said For-est Preserve District of DuPageCounty Public Affairs Special-ist Bonnie Olszewski.
The circumstances sur-rounding the shooting areunknown, she said, but Wil-lowbrook has relayed informa-tion about the incident to theIllinois Department of NaturalResources and the U.S. Fishand Wildlife Service.
“We think it’s a pretty seri-ous offense,” Fejt said.
Bald eagles are designatedas a threatened species, shesaid, and not only is Oak Lawnnot an open hunting space,the birds are protected by theFederal Migratory Bird Act,and therefore are never legalto hunt.
Illinois is home to morethan 3,000 bald eagles duringthe winter months – morethan any state except Alaska,according to Illinois’ officialwebsite.
“This is our nation’s em-blem,” she said. “It’s hardto say what would motivatesomebody to do that.”
The eagle underwent sur-gery Feb. 27, Olszlewski said,which went well. It will re-
main on pain medication andantibiotics to ensure its healthin the coming weeks.
“He’s had a pretty good re-covery,” Fejt said.
As the bird recuperates, itwill transition through a se-ries of increasingly larger en-closures into a more naturalenvironment, Olszlewski said.
It also will work to regainits natural abilities at Willow-brook’s raptor flight facility,an outdoor rehabilitation areafor injured raptors, she said.
Fejt projects the eagle willremain at Willowbrook for atleast a month, but at no pointwill it be available to view pub-licly.
However, the center doeshave a bald eagle that is a per-manent resident of the centerand available for public obser-vation, she said.
Fejt estimates Willowbrookhas played host to four or fivebald eagles in recent years.

Q: How do I know if I have
insurance beneits for hearing aids?
A:While
some insurance
policies ofer
insurance
beneits
for hearing
healthcare
products and
services, most
do not. In an
attempt to divert the perception that
your insurance carrier doesn’t ofer
hearing aid coverage, they may have
a program in place that they call a
“discount” program. “We won’t pay
for your hearing aids but we will get
you a discount on them.” How is
that?hat can be confusing.
To better understand your insurance
beneits for hearing healthcare
products and services, the irst step
is to consult a Doctor of Audiology.
Only Audiologists are authorized
to bill insurance on behalf of the
patient. Technicians and hearing
instrument specialists cannot bill
insurance because they are not
recognized by insurance companies
as approved hearing aid providers.
Technicians typically work at hearing
aid “stores”.
he Audiologist can determine
what your insurance company will
cover. What you want to beware of
is an insurance “discount” program
that steers you toward lower quality
products. hese programs are created
by insurance companies for them
to make money on the hearing
aids you buy through an oice they
have an agreement with. It’s a clever
ruse: hey don’t ofer coverage on
hearing aids (insurance company
saves money) and make money on
the hearing aids that person buys.
Remember things aren’t always as
they seem. You may pay less, but you
also get less.
To avoid being mislead regarding
your insurance coverage for hearing
aids, always irst consult with an
Audiologist. You can be assured that
you get what you’re entitled to.
he Audiologist is the only
professional that should determine
the type of hearing aids and
technologies a person needs as
determined by the person’s hearing
loss and health needs.

Students learn about careers in scienceBy ANNA SCHIER
GLEN ELLYN – Represen-tatives from Google, BP Oiland Fermilab rubbed shoul-ders Feb. 27 in Glen Ellyn.
The esteemed crowd wasn’tin town to attend a fundraiseror industry conference, but toeducate the next generation ofscience, technology, engineer-ing and math professionals.
The Glenbard West HighSchool S.T.E.M. Club hostedits first ever Project Innova-tion or “Project i” event lastweek at Hadley Junior HighSchool.
The goal of the under-taking was to give Hadleyeighth-graders an opportuni-ty to meet science profession-als and learn about careers inmath and technology.
Project i was the brain-child of club co-president and14-year-old Glenbard Westfreshman Claire Wild, who
said she came up with the ideaafter attending career expos atMcCormick Center and Fermi-lab as a seventh grader.
“It’s really just about mak-ing science open and invit-ing,” she said.
Wild and her fellow clubmembers did everything theycould think of to make the proj-ect a success, club representa-tives said, garnering supportfrom State Rep. Sandra Pihos,R-48, networking at youth sci-ence events and contacting ev-eryone they knew in the field.
The event was funded en-tirely by sponsors, includingcommunity members and pri-vate companies.
Project i hosted 21 breakoutsession presenters, organizerssaid, many of whom are GlenEllyn residents and Glenbardor Hadley parents.
The keynote speaker wasTed Buell, who works in salesand marketing for Google,has an engineering back-
ground and just happens tolive next-door to a member ofthe S.T.E.M. Club’s executiveboard.
“I’m interested in differ-ent STEM careers,” said Ni-cole Mattson, age 14, whowas among the 420 Hadleyeighth-graders who partici-
pated in the event. “This wasjust something that I thoughtwould be really interesting.”
However, organizers saidthe program was intendedto appeal to a wide range ofstudents, including those who

Board approves $1.34Mfor paramedic services,$500,000 for ambulances
By ANNA [email protected]
GLEN ELLYN – The GlenEllyn Village Board voted Feb.24 to approve a $1.34 millioncontract with Kurtz ParamedicService and purchase two am-bulances for nearly $500,000.
Trustee Pete Ladesic cast thesole opposing vote.
The New Lenox-based com-pany’s five-year contract was$636,676 less than the next-low-est vendor submission, accord-ing to village documents.
D e s p i t e t h e a p p a r e n tsavings, some officials haddoubts.
“I don’t understand how onebid can be so much less thanthree other bids,” said trusteeTim O’Shea. “I hope there’s notsomething out there that wedon’t know, that we don’t see,that’s going to come in yeartwo, year three, year four or ina renewal.”
Kurtz’s clients includeWheaton, Westmont andBensenville.
“We’re very confident intheir abilities,” said AssistantVillage Manager Al Stonitsch.
The village received fourparamedic service proposalsand considered three modelsfor the agreement, documentssaid, eventually settling on onein which the village will contin-ue to own and maintain its am-bulance fleet.
Ladesic expressed concernabout the village owning ambu-
lances, which, he said, did notreflect a true fixed cost.
“It gives us the best budget-able model moving forward,”said Glen Ellyn Mayor AlexDemos. “I think we’ve done ourdue diligence.”
By opting to own its ambu-lances, the village will saveabout $153,000 per year, ac-cording to village documents,although it will bear accompa-nying liabilities.
Because the board choseto maintain responsibility forits ambulances, officials vot-ed to buy two new vehiclesfrom Foster Coach Sales, Inc.,for $493,386, documents said,amending the annual equip-ment services budget to pay forthe ambulances in 2014 and re-alize a pre-payment discount of$9,828.
The ambulances are estimat-ed to have a lifespan of at least10 years, according to villagedocuments, and will replacecurrent vehicles.
Staff and officials previous-ly considered a model witha 5-year operating life, butStonitsch said choosing the 10-year option will save the village$356,000.
The board voted in Novem-ber to increase ambulance feesfor nonresidents and add newfee categories for assistance notrequiring hospital transport, adecision expected to generatemore than $20,000 annually.
The new fees will go into ef-fect June 15.
are not interested primarily
or solely in science.
“I have been a cheerleader
for eight years, and I really
didn’t fit the mold of a math
and science kid,” said 16-year-
old club co-president Shay Ki-
ker, a sophomore at Glenbard
West. “But I really wanted
all of these kids here today to
know that whether they like
art or they like sports or they
like any other hobbies, that
they have a spot in math and
science.”
Project i presenter Jim El-
liott, an assistant professor in
the Department of Physical
Therapy and Human Move-
ment Sciences at Northwest-
ern University’s Feinberg
School of Medicine, agrees
with Kiker.
“I wasn’t a very tradition-
al student,” he said. “I didn’t
like science. I was a baseball
player.”
After a successful first run,
Wild and Kiker hope to host
the event again next year. Al-
though the S.T.E.M. Club was
originally founded to estab-
lish Project i, its organizers
also hope to host additional
speakers and coordinate field
trips.

Belushi, comedy group to headlineMAC openingBy NATHAN [email protected]
GLEN ELLYN – As partof the opening ceremoniesfor College of DuPage’s newMcAninch Arts Center, oneof the school’s most famousalumni will take its stage.
Jim Belushi, who gradu-ated from the college in 1974and grew up in Wheaton, willreturn to the school Saturday,with his improv group TheChicago Board of Comedy.
“When I go back, I guessthere’s always some kind ofpressure to perform after allthese years,” Belushi said inan email to Suburban Life.“There is also always a greatdeal of excitement and joy. Ilove College of DuPage. Thoseteachers changed my life.”
The comedy group will givetwo performances. The first, at6 p.m., is a MAC Madness fund-raising event to benefit theCollege of DuPage Foundation,the John Belushi ScholarshipFund and other center-relat-ed programs. At 9:30 p.m. theshow will be open to the public.
The evening marks the firstofficial performance at thecenter after a 14-month, $35million renovation – the build-ing’s first update since it wasbuilt 25 years ago – which wasfunded by a $168 million refer-endum area voters passed inNovember 2010.
The space now boasts im-
proved acoustics, a new artgallery and classroom equip-ment, a coat check and a fullservice bar.
McAninch Arts Center Di-rector Diana Martinez saidthe renovation created a pro-fessional atmosphere in thetheater.
“To be able to work in sucha gorgeous facility and pro-fessional facility is really atreat,” she said. “You’re notjust sitting in a black box.”
Martinez said the center willserve as an ambassador to thecommunity for the college andan entry point to other services
the school provides, such asclasses, job fairs and lectures.
She said the college hopesto host a free summer concertseries this year, in addition toexisting student and profes-sional programming to givethe public more opportunitiesto enjoy the space.
The center is part of a num-ber of capital developmentprojects in recent years, in-cluding the school’s Homeland
Security Education Centerand library, said DevelopmentVice President and College ofDuPage Foundation ExecutiveDirector Catherine Brod.
Development since thereferendum has doubled theamount of scholarship moneythe foundation has awarded,tripled the amount of dona-tions it has received and in-creased the number of collegedonors by 150 percent, shesaid, and she believes the newspace will only grow thosenumbers.

8ENDORSEMENT
Republican governorprimary: Bruce Rauner
Illinois has big problems.Years of fiscal mismanagement and
incompetent leadership have compro-mised the state’s economic future.
Illinois’ five public pension systemsare underfunded by more than $100billion.
The state ended 2013 with more than$7 billion in unpaid bills.
Illinois’ credit rating has been down-graded five times since 2011, meaningtaxpayers must pay much more in inter-est when the state borrows money.
Moody’s Analytics predicted thatIllinois will be dead last among all 50 U.S.states in job growth in 2014.
It’s clear that those running state gov-ernment have failed and change is longpast due.
On March 18, Republican primaryvoters have an opportunity to select thecandidate they want to run against Dem-ocratic Gov. Pat Quinn in the Novembergeneral election.
State Sens. Bill Brady and KirkDillard are making a second run for theoffice. (Brady won the GOP nominationfour years ago before losing a closeelection to Quinn.) Illinois TreasurerDan Rutherford also is running, thoughhis campaign has been rocked by sex-ual harassment charges leveled by aformer staffer. Rounding out the field isbusinessman Bruce Rauner, whom weendorse.
Rauner is not a career politician. Infact, this is his first run for public office.He supports term limits and, if he iselected, pledges to serve only two terms.
He’s independently wealthy and willnot be beholden to the special interest
groups who have helped to corruptSpringfield. He will not be afraid tostand up to the powerful public employeeunions who have resisted change. Hiswealth was not given to him. He earnedit during a lifelong career as an investorand businessman.
Rauner is blunt when assessing thestate’s many problems. Workers’ com-pensation is crushing businesses andan impediment to job growth. Despite arecent reform measure, public pensionsare overly generous and unsustainablein the long term. The state’s tax systemis unduly burdensome to both taxpayersand businesses and needs to be reformed.
Rauner knows big changes need to bemade to get the state back on the rightpath.
Despite the many challenges, and thefact that whoever wins the governor’sseat more than likely will have to workwith Speaker Michael Madigan, SenatePresident John Cullerton and a Demo-crat-controlled General Assembly, Raun-er is confident he can get the job done.
He has a genuine love for Illinois and adesire to improve the quality of life here.
Rauner also knows his limitations.He admits that he himself doesn’t haveall the answers, but he promises tosurround himself with the best andbrightest and work as hard as necessaryto succeed, just as he has in his profes-sional life.
Rauner has the energy, the charismaand the financial backing to stand up toQuinn in the fall and win.
In the Republican primary for gover-nor, we endorse Rauner.

In his fifth State of the Union Address, President Obamapledged that 2014 will be a “year of action.” Through “pen andphone,” he vowed to sidestep Congress and advance policies tocreate jobs for Americans struggling to find work in a tougheconomy. But after 5 1/2 years, the Keystone XL pipeline –which would create thousands of American jobs and boost ourweak economy – is still gathering dust on the president’s desk.
All this time, President Obama has delayed the constructionof the pipeline by claiming it would accelerate climate change.Recently, the president’s ownState Department rejectedthat argument when theyreleased their final Environ-mental Impact Statement,concluding that building theKeystone pipeline will haveno significant effect on theclimate. The comprehensive 11-volume report went furtherto say that if the pipeline isn’t built, oil will be transferredby much more environmentally risky means – train, tankeror rail – resulting in up to 41.8 percent more greenhouse gasemissions.
The State Department’s report confirms that Keystonewould create tens of thousands of jobs and move Americacloser to energy independence, making Keystone a win-winpolicy. An overwhelming percentage of Americans are in favorof building the pipeline, and support for the project is strongamong the governors whose states the pipeline will go through.
Right here in Illinois, manufacturers are strongly encour-aging the approval of the pipeline. Steve Romanelli, owner ofCore Pipe in Carol Stream supports the construction of Key-stone not just because of the obvious benefits of having a moresecure and reliable source of energy, but because of the roleenergy plays in our manufacturing workforce. Steve and manyothers believe that with approval of Keystone, the U.S. couldsee a manufacturing resurgence, because as Steve puts it, “thelifeblood of manufacturers is energy.”
Shockingly, the president is still using every possible stalltactic to delay the pipeline’s approval. Fears are growing thathe will even use a Nebraska court case over the pipeline’sroute as his next excuse.
It is clear that when President Obama said he will lead this“year of action” he just plans to continue with more of thesame. The president must not delay another day on approvingthe Keystone XL pipeline that will create good-paying jobs athome and unleash our energy potential.
U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam, R-Wheaton, represents Illinois’ 6thDistrict, which includes much of DuPage County.

Attention joggers,bikers and pedestriansBy using the roadway when
it is dark outside, you arerisking serious injury or deathby wearing dark clothing. It isoften difficult for drivers to seeyou when you blend in with thesurroundings. Use a little precau-tion – either wear highly visiblelight clothing or wear a reflectivevest (a variety of good reflectivegear is available online for lessthan $10). Using a little commonsense when sharing the roadwaywith cars might help prevent atragic accident.
Reader: Potholes aproblem in DownersIt is apparent Downers Grove
is competingwith Chicagowhenit comes to potholes. I haveblown a tire and have had tohave a realignment as a resultof the condition of the streets inDowners Grove. One has to zigzagall over the road tomiss the hugenumber of potholes. There is noreasonwhy Downers cannot fillthese holes. The county has takencare of filling the holes on countystreets in Downers. What is theexcuse that Downers has?Whendo they plan on filling in the holes,when summer gets here?
Churches should pay‘rain tax’ in Downers GroveFrom the days that the church-
es were small buildings on smalllots and grew to huge complexeswith giant paved parking lots thechurches of Downers Grove havebeen getting tax freebies. Nowthat the rain tax is being collect-ed on any property that impedesthe direct absorption of stormwa-ter, there is a call for yet anotherfreebie. Hey, church-goers, howabout putting your church’s raintax assessment in the collectionbasket? Sure, your church is niceand does good things, but whyshould I have to pay more forother peoples’ benefits?
How to find state taxforms at LibraryI am calling about the tax forms
for the state of Illinois. The individ-ualswho are looking for them cango to their local library. If they’renot sure how to use the comput-
er, I am sure a librarianwould helpthem look up Illinois.gov. Then youjust go to “tax forms” and printthemout. If you need extra copies,go to the copymachine and theywill copy the front and back. Havea good day everybody and goodluckwith your taxes.
Library has tax forms, tooRegarding the person who
complained that the NorthRiverside Public Library does nothave Illinois tax forms, the librarydoes have them. Library staff putthem out as soon as they camein. Also, all of the Illinois formsand instructions are available on-line. The staff are happy to printthem out for patrons at 10 centsa page. Patrons are also welcometo use the library’s public com-puters to file their taxes online.
Salt your sidewalksTo people who live in Brook-
field and La Grange Park: Please,please salt your sidewalks. Iwas walking in La Grange Parkat Harding and Barnsdale and Islipped on ice and fell. Thank Godthere was somebody who wasdriving past at the time, sawmefall and stopped to see if I wasOK. Buy a bag of sidewalk salt atJewel, and use it for the rest ofthis winter.

Pihos is right choiceTo the Editor:The call to replace the
incumbent to bring changeto Springfield has been loudbut in the primary race for the48th District House seat, it isclear Sandra Pihos’s bid is onerace where the incumbent isthe right choice. Sandra Pihoswholeheartedly deserves yourvote to continue to serve herconstituents and fight to con-trol spending in Springfield. Asan advocate for education (andpast District 87 board member)and budget transparency, shewill continue working alongsideher fellow legislators to get ourstate back on track. More thanever we need Sandra’s practicalexperience and keen ability towork collectively across theaisle and continue to representthe 48th District’s best inter-ests.Pihos is being challenged by
conservative opponent, PeterBreen, who seemingly is runningmore for his “pro-life at any
cost” agenda than for beingan advocate for the rest of us.Candidate Breen is not evenin Springfield and it certainlyappears he has already beenbought by the PAC’s who con-tinue to fill our mailbox with hispropaganda day in and day out.It’s clear Sandy Pihos is
the right choice and she willcontinue her honest fight for thevoters and not be a lackey for adeep pocketed PAC.Please join me March 18 and
vote to keep Sandra Pihos inSpringfield so she can continueto get the right things done forall of us.

Pure manipulationTo the Editor:As a voter who takes elections
seriously, I was appalled the oth-er night when I received a phonecall under the guise of a politicalpoll. They asked me who I waslikely to vote for in the Republi-
can primary. They asked how Iviewed myself, conservative vs.liberal, and where I fell on pro-life vs. pro-choice.The questions then became
more specific regarding the racebetween Peter Breen and SandraPihos. I was asked specificallyif I would be more likely or lesslikely to vote for Ms. Pihos if Iknew about three specific items,all of which showed her in apositive light. I was then askedabout three specific items thatshowed Mr. Breen in a negativelight.What I found offensive was
the subliminal manipulation ofthe voter. If this was truly anattempt to gather data to seewhat would influence the voter,I would have been asked to rateboth a positive and negative foreach candidate. Instead, thiswas used as an underhandedway to plant negative seedsabout Mr. Breen without castinga negative light on Ms. Pihosor her campaign. It was puremanipulation.
I went one step further to lookinto the negative comments Iwas to rate regarding Mr. Breenand found them to be false. Ireached out to Ms. Pihos regard-ing this poll without response.Influencing the voter by falselysmearing a candidate’s reputa-tion under the guise of a factualpoll is cowardice and a danger-ous practice.

Theproposal is for the issuance of$35 million in bonds.

increase the property tax ratebecause it extends the length ofbond payments.The League of Women Voters

Pihos: I am an advocate for provid-ing quality education and have an in-side perspective on the problems andsolutions. I have focused on stoppingunfundedmandates that burden ourschools. I know school districts areunder immense pressure to achieveacademic excellence; evenmoredaunting, taxpayers knowwhat is atstake andwant positive results aseducation costs escalate.
What is the biggest challengefacing Springfield and whatwould you do to address it?Pihos: Illinois has a serious
spending problem. Our state’s longterm fiscal stability will be linkedto budgeting for better results andoperating more efficiently. As a
member of the Legislative AuditCommission, I have filed legisla-tion that will link the findings ofinefficiencies of agencies directlyto their appropriation in the future.
Do you support the recentstate pension bill and why?Pihos: I have sponsored and sup-
ported numerous pension reformbills in the past. Unfortunately, statelawmakers and the public were notgiven the legislation until two daysbefore vote, making it difficult to vetthe bill. As financial experts beginto see if the dollars add up, they arefinding shortfalls. Lawsuits are alsobeing filed to test the constitutional-ity of the bill. If the bill is tossed outor put on hold by the courts, we willbe further in debt. I do not think thisbill got the job done.
How would you improve the
business climate in Illinois?Pihos: High taxes, over regula-
tion and instability of our financesare barriers for growing business.As a former small-business owner,I know it is critical to roll backtaxes and regulations on busi-ness. Illinois should focus on jobcreation, not job retention.
Why should voters vote for you?Pihos: I am hard working and
accountable to my constituents.I am a vocal opponent to theQuinn-Madigan 67 percent taxincrease, which should be rolledback as promised. I have spon-sored and passed legislation tolower property taxes. I am a strongadvocate of small businesses andjob creation. I believe we shouldstrengthen our education systemand provide our residents withsafe communities in which to live.
understanding of the issues to be acitizen legislator who truly acts inthe best interests of the taxpayersof the district.
What experiences do you havethat lend themselves to servingthis position?Breen: I’m a village trustee in
Lombard, and when our long-time mayor passed away, I waschosen to serve as acting villagepresident. I’ve served in executivepositions in the private sector,including strong experience innonprofit agencies, two of whichI founded. I believe strongly in acitizen legislature and term limits.
Why are you seeking this office?Breen: Our state is on the brink
of economic disaster. The peopleof this district and of this statehave put up with incompetentgovernment at nearly all levels forlong enough. They can deal withthe truth and are willing to workwith sincere legislators to turnthings around.
What is the biggest challengefacing Springfield and whatwould you do to address it?Breen:We must reform
Medicaid and make sure that thefolks not entitled to Medicaid – bysome reports, up to 40 percent ofparticipants – stop crowding outthose who are truly needy.
Do you support the recent statepension reform bill and why?Breen: This bill saves at least
$145 billion for taxpayers, and Isupport it. The bill is step one, andRepublicans need to lead the way
toward a permanent, sustainablesolution in the years to come.
How would you improve thebusiness climate in Illinois?Breen:We have way too many
onerous regulations on businessthat kill jobs. We need to continueto repeal and modify those regula-tions, including reforming worker’scompensation. If the businesscommunity sees a change inmindset in Illinois, they will take achance on the positives catchingup to the negatives.
Why should voters vote for you?Breen: Because it’s time for a
change of philosophy and time foran energetic thinker who’s willingto lead this effort. You can’t expectthe legislators who got us into thismess in order to get us out of it.It’s time for new leadership. That’swhat I’m offering.

Q: Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is
the biggest cause of lost work days in
the U.S. What is your opinion about
solutions for this condition?
A: IBS is in a collection of digestive
disorders related to the overall health of
the cells that line the digestive system.
Inlammatory bowel disease, such as
Chrohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis
are also involved and are considered
autoimmune illnesses. These patients
have a lack of short chain fatty acids
(SCFA), the food for the digestive system
cells. When friendly bacteria in the gut
consumes fructooligosaccharides (FOS)
they make the fatty acids (SCFA) to
“feed” and make healthy the “starving”
cells. Ninety-ive percent FOS and
Florajen 3 are available for about $43.00
for a two month therapy. For more

Q&A
Jim Belushi talks about his homecomingBy NATHAN [email protected]
As part of the opening cere-monies for the McAninch ArtsCenter at College of DuPage,one of the school’s most famousalumni will take its stage.
Wheaton native Jim Be-lushi, who graduated from thecollege in 1974, will performat the school Saturday withhis improv group The ChicagoBoard of Comedy.
Belushi recently took partin an interview via emailwith Suburban Life reporterNathan Lurz.
Lurz: You have always seemedvery proud and vocal about yourroots in Chicago and the Chicagosuburbs. What are your thoughtson returning, especially to thearea where you grew up?
Belushi: I returned to theWheaton area last fall withmy 14-year-old daughter. Iwanted to give her a senseof where I was from. It waskind of fun, telling her old
stories about the popcornshop. Seeing Wheaton Centraltorn down to the ground wasfunky. And seeing the CountyJail next to the old Wheatoncourthouse torn down wascool – I spent three days thereonce. Ding dong, the witch isdead! We walked the streetsof my old neighborhood, toLincoln grade school, EdisonJunior High. We had a sodaat the Seven [Dwarfs Restau-rant] at Roosevelt [Road] andPresident [Street]. It was agreat experience to share withmy daughter, although shewasn’t as moved as I was. ButI watched her eyes, she wastaking it in.
Lurz: You are also returningto College of DuPage. What is itlike coming back to the stage –albeit a newer one – after yourtime as a student? Did yourexperience there have an impacton your life?
Belushi: When I go back,I guess there’s always somekind of pressure to perform
after all these years. Thereis also always a great dealof excitement and joy. I loveCollege of DuPage. Thoseteachers changed my life.They rooted me in my craftand I am always indebtedand grateful to those men andwomen who took the time thatI needed and gave me the lovethat I needed to focus me. Sowhatever College of DuPageneeds, I’m always there tohelp. We’re doing two shows:one to raise money for thetheatre and the John BelushiScholarship Fund and one forthe general public.
Lurz: You helped create theJohn Belushi Scholarship Fundalongside The Second City inmemory of your brother andfellow College of DuPage alum.You also helped establish theschool’s Artist-in-ResidenceFund. What motivated you tocreate those programs?
Belushi: I was looking forsome way to express gratitudeto the College of DuPage and
I was looking for some way tokeep John’s name and legacyalive. Since we both wentto COD and Second City, itseemed like a natural fit. Thesescholarships go out to peoplewho are a lot like John andmyself: not straight-A studentswho always get grants andscholarships, but kids who arereally bright in what they aredoing. There seems to be a holein school programs and univer-sities for talented people whosuck at chemistry and math.
Lurz: Have you seen the plansfor the McAninch Arts Center?What are your thoughts on thenew facilities?
Belushi: I have not seen theplans yet. But I do know thatsince I was a student at COD,they have done a remark-able job of redoing it. It is agorgeous facility. When I wasthere, I was in buildings J andK, building a stage in the caf-eteria for us to do our shows.All the people who have
worked so tirelessly and sohard to make College of DuP-age a first-rate communitycollege have done an excellentjob. It’s a beautiful campus.
Lurz: What should peopleattending the Board of Comedyshow expect to see?
Belushi: Magic! They’regoing to see magic created infront of their eyes. We haveno idea what we’re going todo. We do about nine differentshort form improvisationalgames. We take suggestionsfrom the audience and wemake stuff up on the spot.This is not like watchingTV or a movie or a regulartheatre performance, whereyou’re a voyeur. You’re a par-ticipant in the audience here.We are as good as the audi-ence’s suggestions. So I havea feeling this is going to be agood audience, a great show,and we’re going to capturesome magic that people willremember for a long time.

Vote ‘yes’ for District 87referendumTo the Editor:As a proud alum of Glenbard
East High School, I stronglysupport the District 87 referen-dum, which will appear on theMarch 18 ballot. My husbandand I have children in a District44 school and are pleased withthe progress they have made,both academically and in theirsocial emotional development.
This has been possible be-cause the staff, extracurricularopportunities, and facilities. Wewould like to make sure thatthis foundation of excellence inlearning and development whichstarted in District 44 continuesas our children enter the highschool phase of their educationin District 87.Attending Glenbard East, I had
experiences with staff memberswho made a difference in mylife; many of them are still there.The extra-curricular opportuni-ties helped mold me into who I
am today. In conversations withparents of current East students,those same opportunities existtoday. Let’s make sure the facil-ities of Glenbard East match theamazing staff and extracurricu-lar opportunities available withinthe building.We have chosen to raise our
children in the communitywhere I grew up in because Iam proud of the education Ireceived throughout my entireschool career. Lombard hasalways been a community thatvalues education. I urge all com-munity members to vote “yes”for the referendum because acommunity that values educa-tion is a strong community allaround. Quality high schoolscontribute to property values,and Glenbard East should beviewed as a community asset.
Julie (Leahy) JohnsonLombard
Simple and familiar wordsTo the Editor:Recently, as I passed Park
View Elementary School, I
noticed a sign, which read “Cellphone use prohibited.”For some reason, the use of
the word “prohibited” struck meas somewhat out of place for awarning sign that is there for thesafety of school children, as it islengthy and could be unfamiliarto some individuals.I asked a recent naturalized
citizen if they knew what thesign meant. She didn’t, becauseshe did not know the meaning ofthe word “prohibited,” let aloneever having read it before. I thenasked her if she knew what “Nocellphone use” meant. She, ofcourse, did.As we are a nation of immi-
grants, perhaps we should wordsigns that are there for all tounderstand using simple andfamiliar words and not wordsthat display ones’ command ofthe English language.
Tom BowlerGlen Ellyn
It’s realTo the Editor:I really did lose my doctor and
my health plan because of exor-bitant increases in my premiumsbecause, and I quote, “New feesrequired by the Affordable CareAct, which are designed to sup-port programs that will stabilizepremiums and provide subsidiesto qualified individuals to helpthem purchase coverage.”To all those who think they are
somehow immune from this de-bacle, think again. We will all sitidly by while things happen toothers and think, “This will neverhappen to me.” It will. Becauseit’s the law. And though therehave been highly publicizedexamples of entities who aretemporarily exempt from thislaw (until after the elections)who believe they are safe, theyare not.Not only did I not save $2,500
in premiums, mine went up 48percent. Contrary to an absolutepromise from on high, I did losemy doctor and the policy I liked.For me and many more peopleevery day, it’s real.

|26 MYSTERY DINER Questions? Email [email protected]
Restaurant reviews
DOWNERS GROVE – Ev-eryone knows the best dinnerfood is breakfast food; there’sjust something about eggsBenedict or juicy blueberrypancakes that hits the spot,especially late night.
So when my fellow dinerand I originally scannedOmega Restaurant’s menu, wethought we’d head straight forthe breakfast section – that is,until we saw its fully stockeddinner menu. With gourmetburgers, more than a dozendifferent sandwiches, steak,seafood and other dishes tochoose from, we spent about20 minutes just deciding onwhat to order.
We kicked off the diningexperience with Omega’sFamous Greek Saganaki – afried cheese dish and, in myopinion, the best decisionof the night. The appetizerwas brought to the table in apersonal-sized skillet and thenlit on fire in front of us. Giantflames spread across thesaganaki, providing not onlymouthwatering flavor, but asurprising show, as well.
Although the menu had uspulled in many directions, itwas the traditional breakfastsection that claimed bothour palates. My choice wasthe Denver Omelette – withcheese, ham, green pepper,onion and added mushroom– while my companion wentwith the Omega Skillet – apan stacked with hashbrowns,onions, choice of sausage orbacon, melted cheese and twoeggs any style.
While I was completely sat-isfied with my football-sizedomelette – to the point wheresome leftovers found a placein my fridge – there are acouple items on the menu I’malready planning on tastingnext time.
Omega’s Saganaki Om-elette sounds like a cheesyand deliciously appealingway to combine our previousappetizer and meals. But mybiggest goal for the next visitis to save room for dessert so I(and a few friends) can tackleOmega’s Famous TummyBuster Ice Cream Sundae – a
seven-scoop concoction thatour waitress described as thesize of my head. Yum!
Even though the food alonewas enough to convince me,what really made a trip toOmega worth it, was its out-standing service and homeyatmosphere.
Our server was friendly,extremely attentive but notoverbearing, and had all theanswers to our questions.While effortlessly describingany item on the menu, shemade suggestions and let ustake our time before ordering.
My water glass constantlywas refilled, and we wereeven invited to take home the
leftover rolls in the compli-mentary bread basket.
The impressive staff addedto Omega’s ambiance, withits cozy dining room, wherethe lighting was pleasantlydimmed.
The venerable restaurantis celebrating its first anni-versary since reopening lastMarch, retaining favorite
elements such as the bakery,whose case is filled withdesserts prepared in-house,including cakes, pies andpastries. Beer and wine alsoare available.
All-in-all, with its temptinghome-cooked fare, impeccableservice and welcoming atmo-sphere, Omega is a perfectspot for a casual date night,
family night out, or just a re-laxing evening with friends.

The result was an 86-61 lossto the host Mustangs in a Class4A Morton regional semifinal.Justin Pierce had 16 pointsand Kalen Starkey added 11 inthe defeat.
“Morton is tough,” Glen-bard West coach Tim Hodersaid. “They’ve got bigs, theycan shoot the ball. They scored61 points in the first halfagainst Addison Trail. I wastalking to a few coaches re-cently and they are playing asgood as anybody around. Theyare peaking when it matters.”
The squad finished the sea-son with a record of 14-14, animpressive accomplishmentconsidering its youthful ros-ter, the departure of leadingscorer Keith Hayes and an as-sortment of injuries.
“Some kids really steppedup,” Hoder said. “Kids likeWill Reedy stepped up and oursophomores stepped up. Thekids have done a lot of goodthings and Corey [Davis] cre-ated so many things for oth-ers.”
The Hilltoppers had ad-vanced to the semifinals afterhanging on to defeat ProvisoWest 63-61 Monday.
It was the third meeting ofthe season between the WestSuburban Silver foes, who hadsplit the previous two games.
This time around, Davisand Reedy made sure thattheir team came out on top. ADavis rebound and coast-to-coast layup with 39 secondsleft gave Glenbard West an in-surmountable four-point leadand capped off an outstandinghalf by the senior guard.
Over the final 16 minutes,Davis produced 14 points,
nine rebounds and four as-sists as the Hilltoppers builta double-digit lead and thenwithstood a frantic Panthers’comeback. Reedy added five3-pointers and a game-high 21points.
Leading by three at in-termission, Glenbard Westwent on a 15-2 run to extendthe score to 45-29. But Provi-so West answered with a 13-0spurt early in the fourth quar-ter to knot the game at 52-52.
Two free throws by Piercegave the Hilltoppers the leadfor good as the home team onthe scoreboard made seven at-tempts from the charity stripedown the stretch.
“The kids shot the ball well,which was a big factor for us,”Hoder said.
G l e n b a r d W e s t h a dwrapped up the regular sea-son with a 68-63 win againstHinsdale South in a West Sub-urban Conference crossovergame Feb. 26. The Hilltoppershad also beaten the Hornets onDec. 4.

Wheaton Academy boys lock up fifth straight conference titleBy SCOTT SCHMID
WEST CHICAGO – GordonBehr and his Wheaton Acade-my boys basketball teams canstrike one goal off the list.
Playing in their final Sub-urban Christian Conferencegame Friday, the Warriorswent out in style.
Receiving contributionsup and down their roster,the Warriors knocked offMarmion 59-49 to cap off theprogram’s fifth consecutiveconference title.
Next year, the schoolheads to the Metro SuburbanConference.
“That was one of our goalsthis year,” said Gordon Behr,who was one of two seniors,along with William Burdett,to be honored on senior night.“It’s our last year in the con-ference and we wanted to goout winning it.”
Behr finished with eightpoints and five rebounds inhis final home game. JoshRuggles led all scorers with16 points, Burdett also totaledeight points, and Jacob Lind-stedt finished with seven.
“It’s kind of bittersweet,”Behr said. “I really love thiscourt and love this school. Se-nior night was a lot of fun.”
The victory put the finish-ing touches on a perfect 10-0run through the Blue divi-sion of the SCC..
“The focus this year has
been on mental toughness,”Behr said. “Some of the hard-er games, like at St. Francisand at Marmion, those gameswe’ve really gotten a lot bet-ter at this year.”
W h e a t o n A c a d e m ywrapped up the regular sea-son with a 19-8 record underfirst-year head coach PeterFroedden, marking the sev-enth straight season the teamhas won 17 or more games.
The Warriors were set toopen up the postseason onWednesday at the Class 3AGenoa-Kingston regionalagainst Burlington Centralwith the winner advancing toFriday’s regional champion-ship game.
“Coach [Paul] Fergusonwas a great coach and CoachFroedden is a great coach, soa lot of it has to do with that,”Behr said. “And we reallybought into the new systemas a team. We struggled ear-ly in the season but we arepeaking at a good time.”
The Warriors had knockedoff St. Francis 46-44 in SCCaction on Feb. 26. Behr scored15 points and Ruggles added14.

THREE KEYS TO VICTORY
1. Balance: The Warriors
had nine players enter
into the scoring column and
had 10 players grab at least
one rebound.
2. Third quarter run: Up
by seven at halftime,
Wheaton Academy went on
a 16-8 third quarter run to
push its advantage to double
digits.
3. Free throw shooting:
The Warriors made
18 free throws in the game,
including 11 in the fourth
quarter.
O’Mara moves to top ofBenet scoring listLISLE - In Benet’s regular
season finale victory against
Carmel on Feb. 26, Glen Ellyn
resident Sean O’Mara became
the all-time leading scorer in
program history.
Earlier in the year, O’Mara
had gone over the 1,500-point
plateau for his career in a
victory against
Nazareth on
Feb. 14.
Headed
to Xavier in
the fall, the
6-foot-9 senior
is averaging
more than 24 points and 13
rebounds a game this winter.
As a team, the Redwings
were awarded the No. 1 seed
at the East Aurora sectional
and were set to begin the
postseason Tuesday at the
Lemont regional against the
host Indians. A victory in that
game would send Benet into
Friday’s regional championship
against either Waubonsie
Valley or Naperville North.

‘She left her mark’
By SCOTT [email protected]
WHEATON – The ideal sce-nario for any coach is to havetheir best player also be a hardworker and great teammate.
And for the past four years,Wheaton Warrenville Southcoach Rob Kroehnke has livedthat dream with Meghan Wal-dron on the court.
“She is the best player whoworks extremely hard on hergame and pretty much gets joyfrom having her teammates besuccessful,” Kroehnke said.“That’s the bottom line withher.”
Waldron leaves the Tigers’program as their most decorat-ed player, having become boththe all-time leading scorer andrebounder this winter.
“It’s probably been one ofthe most enjoyable things Ihave ever been a part of,” Wal-dron said of her high schoolcareer. “I grew up with a lot ofthe girls I played with at Southand it was an incredible jour-ney with them.
“It’s been a dream of minesince I was a little girl to playat Wheaton Warrenville Southand it’s been a blessing to getthat opportunity.”
More than her individualnumbers, and those again weregaudy this winter with her per-game averages of 21.4 pointsand 8.8 rebounds, winning wasthe ultimate benchmark for thesenior guard. In her four yearson the court, the Tigers went102-19 while capturing a quar-tet of DuPage Valley Confer-ence championships.
“We didn’t like to lose,”Waldron said. “We like to winand we worked hard for it. It’snot like success is an accident,we worked hard all summerand we wanted the best foreach other. It didn’t matter tous who got the most points orthe most rebounds.”
That thirst for team successis what drove Waldron in theoffseason.
“Over the summer, I alwayswanted to improve my game,”
she said. “I wasn’t satisfiedwith how we finished, I alwayswanted us to do better. We hadto continue our success in the
DVC. And I wanted to improvemyself, every year it got hard-er because people knew whoyou were. And my teammatesall did the same thing.”
The guard’s continued im-provement for the past fouryears wasn’t lost on her coach.
“Each year she got better,”Kroehnke said. “As good asshe is, she kept working evenharder and improved in everypart of her game every year.”
For her part, Waldron isquick to credit her coachesand teammates.
“Coach Kroehnke has been
so important for me,” the se-nior said. “I’ve known him fora while, I went to their campswhen I was really little. Forhim to give me an opportunityto play, that is the best thing.And my teammates are mybest friends, it was an honor toplay with them. We never everhad a bad day, we never haddrama. It was a great thing tobe a part of, where everybodycared for each other.”
Soon the guard will have tointroduce herself to a new setof teammates. Waldron willplay at DePaul next season.
“I’m excited,” Waldronsaid. “It will be a lot differentthan high school, every girl isgoing to be very good and it’sa more physical game. I willhave to prepare for that, butI’m excited for the next chap-ter, too.”
As for the program sheleaves behind, Kroehnke willbegin the impossible task oftrying to fill the void left byWaldron.
“What she has done for thisprogram overall,” Kroehnkesaid, “she left her mark and itwill be around for a while.”

The Illinois High School As-sociation recently announcedadjustments to its multiplierrule for private schools thatshould impact the class thatsome area programs competein for the state playoffs.
The new rule, called theSuccess Advancement Compo-nent by the IHSA, will moveteams up a class if they win atleast two state trophies duringa four-year period. The newrule will take effect startingwith the 2014-15 school year.
This won’t have any impacton teams that are already com-peting in the highest class orsports that have just one classsuch as tennis, water polo,swimming and boys volley-ball.
Football, which has themost classes of any IHSA sportwith eight, will have a slightlydifferent take on the rule:
• Starting with the 2015 sea-son, schools would be movedup two classes if they madethree state finals during afour-year period.
• Starting in 2016, schoolswould be moved up threeclasses if they make four statefinals in a row.
This means Montini foot-ball will move up to Class 6Ain 2014 and, if the Broncos do
not make a title game in 2014,they will be Class 7A in 2015. Ifthey make a state title game in2014, they would go all the wayup to 8A the next season.
Schools that move up morethan one class will move downone class per year until theyreach their appropriate clas-sification for their enrollmentshould they stop meeting theadvancement criteria listedabove.
Here is a list of teams in theSuburban Life coverage areathat would be affected basedon the past four years, includ-ing fall 2013, but not winter orspring 2014.
• Montini football (5Achamps 2010-12; second in 2013)
• Montini girls basketball(3A champs 2010-12; third in2013)
• Montini girls cross coun-try (2A third place in 2011 and2012)
• Montini wrestling (2Achamps 2010-13)
• Nazareth baseball (3Afourth place in 2011; third in2012)
• St. Francis girls volleyball(3A champs in 2012 and 2013;third in 2011)
• Wheaton Academy boyssoccer (2A fourth place in 2012,2013)
• Wheaton Academy girlssoccer (2A third place in 2010;fourth in 2011)

How does your
GArDeNGrow?by anne raih | More Content Now
Fruits and vegetables are a good source of vitamins, min-erals and iber that will keep you healthy and help yougrow to be tall and strong. Vegetables come from the
earth, grown on farms across this country and beyond. Butdon’t leave it to the farming professionals — this spring, startplanting your own garden.
Location: Find a place with plenty of sun. Look for good soilthat is away from trees and bushes that have big roots orbranches that might interfere with your growing plants. Youalso will need to think about water — is your garden near ahose, or do you have another way to water your plants? If youdon’t have access to land, plant your seeds in pots on a sunnyporch or balcony.
plan: Plants need space, so make sure not to overcrowd. Keep-ing your seeds in rows helps you stay organized and can giveyour plants room to grow. Draw out a plan to maximize space.
follow instructions: Read the directions on each pack ofseeds, and follow them closely. If the directions say to planteach seed 2 feet apart, make sure to do that. Even though theymight start out as little seeds, some plants can grow quitelarge, especially if you are doing a good job with them.
maintain: Common gardening tools include a hose, wateringcan, spade, rake and hoe. You will need a way to dig into theearth to plant your seeds, and also need tools to maintain yourgarden. Some of these can be helpful in removing weeds thatwill sprout up and crowd your plants. And don’t forget to water!If your plants are looking and feeling dry, make sure to givethem a healthy shower.

Notice of Petition by Kramer Tree Specialists, Inc. for an Adjusted Standard before
the Illinois Pollution Control Board
Petitioner: Kramer Tree Specialists, Inc.300 Charles CourtWest Chicago, IL 60185
On February 26, 2014, Kramer Tree Specialists, Inc. (“Kramer”) iled a petition for anadjusted standard with the Illinois Pollution Control Board (the “IPCB”). he IPCBdocket number assigned to Kramer’s petition is AS 2014-002.
Regulatory Standards from which an Adjusted Standard is Sought
Kramer seeks an adjusted standard from certain of the requirements of 35Illinois Administrative Code Sections 830.202(d), (e)(3), (f), (g), (l)(1), 830.205(a)(1)(A), 830.206(f), (j), (k), (l) and (n). 830.503, 830.504 and 830.507. As a general matter,35 Illinois Administrative Code Part 830 sets forth composting regulations that aredesigned to promote the creation of compost from landscape wastes in an environ-mentally protective manner. he regulations set forth in Illinois Administrative Code830 require the environmentally responsible composting of grass, shrubbery, cuttings,leaves, tree limbs and other materials accumulated as the result of the care of lawns,shrubbery, vines and trees. However, Kramer’s operations, as described below, use suchmaterials for a productive purpose – to create mulch for residential and commercialuse – and the regulations in Illinois Administrative Code 830 simply do not account forproductive and environmentally responsible operations like Kramer’s.
Proposed Adjusted Standards
Kramer’s proposed adjusted standards recognize that Illinois AdministrativeCode 830 was not drated to cover operations like Kramer’s; however, the proposedadjusted standards will maintain the environmentally protective features of those reg-ulations. Kramer’s proposed adjusted standards will require it to manage all leaves insuch a way as to minimize decomposition and to capture or prevent any deleterious airor water emissions. Speciically, Kramer’s facility is designed to collect all water runoffrom stored leaves and will employ a ine spray over the production area to minimizethe potential for any dust emissions. In short, Kramer’s proposed adjusted standardswill preserve the environmentally protective aspects of Illinois Administrative CodePart 830, while accommodating Kramer’s operations.
Description of Kramer’s Activity that is the Subject of the Adjusted Standard Proceedings
Kramer owns and operates a ten acre tree care facility. As part of that oper-ation, Kramer produces and sells leaf mulch, which is a blend of leaves and sized woodymaterial. Kramer’s leaf mulch production process takes place on an annual cycle. Eachautumn, Kramer collects leaves from several local municipalities. he collected leavesare then stacked on a concrete pad and any water contained within the leaves is drainedof and collected. As customer mulch orders are received, stacked leaves are processedthrough grinding, and for certain products, then mixed with other wood waste prior tosale. During this process, the leaves are managed to minimize decomposition in orderto preserve the leaves for use in mulch, and preventative measures are taken to ensurethat no dust or particulate matter is emitted from the stacks of leaves.
Opportunity to Request a Public Hearing
Any person may cause a public hearing to be held in the above-described adjustedstandard proceeding by iling a hearing request with the Illinois Pollution ControlBoard within 21 days ater the date of the publication of this notice. he hearing requestshould clearly indicate the docket number for the adjusted standard proceeding, asfound in this notice, and must be mailed to the Clerk of the Board, Illinois PollutionControl Board, 100 W. Randolph Street, Suite 11-500, Chicago, Illinois 60601.
