Business looks to defend 80-plus-year-old painted signBy ED MCMENAMIN

[email protected]

DOWNERS GROVE – Thehand-painted sign has coveredthe back of Leibundguth Mov-ing and Storage since at leastthe 1930s, but unless the vil-lage tweaks its new sign ordi-nance, the business could loseits biggest and oldest source ofadvertising.

As one of few remainingexamples of 20th-century,hand-painted signs in Down-ers Grove, it has historicalvalue, owner Bob Pattersonsaid. More importantly, thesign faces the Metra tracks,and he estimates he would loseupwards of $60,000 in annualrevenue due to lost commuterexposure.

The village is enforcing thenew sign rules after a nine-year grace period, but Patter-son is waiting to see how thevillage responds to his requestfor flexibility.

The major issue facing Lei-bundguth’s sign is that thenew ordinance requires signsto face public right-of-ways.

Because the village code doesnot consider the Metra tracksa right-of-way – unlike theTollway and other transporta-tion – his sign is in violation.Additionally, his sign is largerthan what’s now allowed, andpainted wall-signs are only al-lowed in the downtown busi-ness district, which he fallsoutside of.

Patterson said he’ll paintover the sign if he has to. But,at the least, he hopes he can re-place it with a standard signfacing the tracks.

“But the easiest thing to dois to grandfather in a companythat’s been here since 1928, do-ing business,” he said.

At the Aug. 12 councilmeeting, Patterson and Cham-ber630 Director Laura Craw-ford made an appeal to thecouncil to amend the ordi-nance to allow signs facing theMetra tracks.

The council then directedstaff to prepare a report detail-ing how many businesses thepossible amendment would af-fect, along with any unintend-ed consequences, following a

motion by Commissioner Da-vid Olsen. Staff is expected toreturn with a report and pos-sible ordinance for consider-ation in the coming weeks.

Olsen said redefining theMetra tracks as a public rightof way would correct what heconsiders an oversight in thesign ordinance.

“And it’s something that’sfairly easily corrected,” hesaid. “But as with anything,a simple change of languagecould impact other parts of theordinance. So that’s what staffis compiling.”

He also would be open toallowing hand-painted signsout of the downtown businessdistrict.

“My opinion, personally, isthat their painted sign is notharming anybody,” he said. “Ipersonally have no issue withit and would personally be finewith allowing them to keep it,in that instance.”

From Patterson’s perspec-tive, removing the sign woulddo his business a good deal ofharm, along with he villagetax rolls.

His estimated annual reve-nue loss comes from the num-ber of calls he receives eachweek from customers whomention they saw the signwhile riding the train, he said.If other businesses along thetracks see similar dips, thatcould result in a large loss oftax revenue for the village, hesaid.

Some businesses with rearwalls facing the tracks, likeHendricks Pianos, have al-ready removed their signage.Co-owner Bill Jenkins saidhe’s eagerly awaiting the vil-lage’s decision whether toamend the ordinance.

“We had a friendly, smallsign,” he said. “But I would defi-nitely put one back up as big aswe were allowed to put up.”

In addition to the back-wallsign, the piano business had tocut down the sign that stood inthe grass in front of the build-ing for 33 years, long with twoother wall signs, he said.

Jenkins said it would costabout $4,000 to replace thefree-standing sign in frontwith one that complies.

He believes the village be-came over-zealous when over-hauling the sign ordinance, anundertaking initially aimed atcleaning up Ogden Avenue.

“Ogden Avenue neededsome assistance with that,” hesaid. “But I think they’ve tak-en it too far. I think it’s cost alot of unnecessary expense tothe small-business people.”

So far, about 93 percent ofsigns are in compliance, ac-cording to village staff.

Mayor Martin Tully couldnot be reached for commentbut said in February that thehigh rate of voluntary compli-ance shows the new rules havenot been an undue burden onbusiness.

The village also recentlyheard appeals from severallarge retailers looking for ex-ceptions to keep their old sig-nage, including two Best Buys,Kohl’s, and others. Almost allhave been denied by the Zon-ing Board.

Fines for non-complyingsigns can range from $75 to$750, the standard code viola-tion penalties in the village.

The painted sign that has adorned the back of Leibundguth Moving and Storage for more than 80 years may soon be painted over because it is not in compliance with the newDowners Grove sign ordinance.

District 99 expands ‘1:1’ programBy ED MCMENAMIN

[email protected]

DOWNERSGROVE –About1,500 students at DownersGrove North and South Highschools will be greeted withnew Google Chromebook lap-tops when District 99 returnsto class Monday.

Students will get to keep thedevices throughout the schoolday and take them home aspart of the expanded 1:1 pilotprogram.

“By being able to take thedevices home with them,they have anywhere, any-time learning,” South HighSchool Instructional Tech-nology Coordinator JonOrech said. “Some kids mayhave their own devices, butthis guarantees that they allhave them.”

The expanded pilot followsa smaller sample when about200 students were outfittedwith Chromebooks during the2013-14 school year.

Incoming sophomore ClayIsacson, 15, was one of those

pilot students last year. Heattested the device complete-ly replaced his textbook for asocial studies class where as-signments also were largelyrun through Google Docs, al-lowing real-time collaborationbetween students and theirteachers on a single editabledocument.

He said it took an initialgrowing-pain period beforethe instructor effectively usedthe filtering software to blockcertain games and other on-line distractions. After that,“it was a productive learningdevice,” he said.

Students and teachers whoparticipated last year wereinterviewed at semester’s con-

clusion, Orech said, to helpmodify the program for the ex-panded pilot this year.

“Kidswere verymuchmoreengaged,” he said. “We wereable to do some activities andthat previously were incon-ceivable without kids havingtheir own devices.”

This year’s pilot is expect-ed to cost about $500,000. Itfollows on the heals of severalsimilar programs in the area,including Grade School Dis-trict 58’s 1:1 effort. This fall,3,600 students in the district,from kindergarten throughseventh grade, will have iPadminis, following its own pilotprograms.

Orech said District 99

chose Chromebooks becauseof their affordability, andbecause much of the lessonsand activities are run throughGoogle Docs and other GoogleApps that come with the note-books.

But for the program to besuccessful, “it isn’t just thedevices,” he said. “It has to beembraced by the teachers andstudents to kind of change thelearning ecology and learningculture that goes on.”

That environment is fos-tered when teachers can helpguide and encourage studentsto use the devices to be “em-powered” learners, he said,determined to create on theirown time as well as in theclassroom.

Orech said the district willtrack student performance inthe pilot, and collect anecdot-al evidence before decidingwhether to expand the devicesto all 5,200 students.

“When you consider theprice of a textbook, it’s a prettygood return on investment,”he said.

“By being able to take the devices home with them,they have anywhere, anytime learning. Some kidsmay have their own devices, but this guarantees

|that they all have them.”Jon Orech

Village eyes $594,877 sewer, streets project on Forest AvenueBy ED MCMENAMIN

[email protected]

DOWNERS GROVE – TheDowners Grove Village Coun-cil is considering a $594,877project to improve drainageand reduce flooding for build-ings on Forest Avenue.

The council heard theplan’s first reading at its meet-ing Aug. 12 and was expected

to approve the plan Aug. 19.The project would replace

the existing sewer system onForest Avenue from 41st Streetto Herbert Street, “which iscurrently in very poor condi-tion and needs to be replaced,”Downers Grove Public WorksDirector Nan Newlon said.

Additional work wouldinclude the installation ofpermeable pavers and native

plantings, along with roadresurfacing on Forest venuefrom 41st Street to 39th Street,according to village staff.

The pavers and plantingswould correspond with twolow points in the road to helpwith drainage and slow neigh-borhood traffic, Newlon said.

She said those improve-ments were added to the projectafter meetings with neighbors.

“The residents are all verymuch in favor of this, theythink it’ll be a benefit to theirneighborhood, help reduce[traffic] speed and be an amen-ity for their street,” she said.

The plants and pavers add-ed about $15,000 to the projectfor both of the locations, shesaid.

The village’s first use ofpermeable pavers was at inter-section Carpenter and Grovestreets. The pavers on Frank-lin will be on a straight sectionof the road, not an intersec-tion.

The sewer work would bepaid for by $500,000 budgetedin the stormwater fund, andthe road work’s allotmentwould come from $120,000 bud-geted in the capital projectsfund, according to village doc-uments.

“This is kind of a three-bun-dle project – storm sewer,street resurfacing and trafficcalming,” Village Commis-sioner Geoff Neustadt said.“All three [are] priority thingsthat we have been asking ourstaff to do, and we have it all inone stretch of roadway here.”

The project was put outto bid and the lowest offer,$594,877, came from SwallowConstruction.

Swallow completed theOakwood Avenue storm sew-er replacement project for thevillage in 2012.

The work is part of the vil-lage’s larger efforts to upgradestormwater infrastructurethroughout Downers Grove,funded by the stormwater feeenacted in 2013. Previously,stormwater improvementswere funded by property taxes.

“The residents are all verymuch in favor of this, theythink it’ll be a benefit totheir neighborhood, helpreduce [traffic] speed and

be an amenityfor their street.”Nan Newlon

Caribou Coffee to close,reopen as Peet’s Coffee

By ED [email protected]

DOWNERS GROVE – Down-ers Grove’s downtown CaribouCoffee will close Aug. 31 and re-open Oct. 27 as a Peet’s Coffee &Tea on, according to employees.

Barista Rosemary Linn saidshe and the other staffmembersare expected to keep their jobswhen the store, 5100 Main St.,reopens following the remodel-ing and rebranding work.

Thedowntowncafe isoneof alimitednumberofCaribou’s thatwere not closed and will insteadbecomePeet’s Coffee shops.

In 2012, Minnesota-basedCaribou was bought by a Ger-manholding company for about

$340 million. In April the fol-lowing year, it announced itwould close the majority of its66 Illinois locations, and con-vert more than a dozen to Peet’sCoffee & Tea shops. Overall, 80were planned for closure and 88for conversion, nationwide.

There were Caribou loca-tions inmore than a half dozenwest suburban locations.

Locations in Willowbrook,La Grange, Oakbrook Terrace,Lombard and Countryside al-ready closed. An employeeat the Wheaton Caribou saidit is converting into a Peet’s,closing Aug. 24 and reopen-ing sometime in October. TheGlen Ellyn location will closepermanently Sunday, and not

transition into a Peet’s, an em-ployee said.

Most Caribou cafes thatwere not planned for the con-version into Peet’s coffee wereclosed shortly after the Aprilannouncement.

Caribou’s transition isthe latest change in DownersGrove’s chain coffee options.

Starbucks, which has adowntown location across theMetra tracks from Caribou,opened its thirdDownersGrovecafe this summer on Ogden Av-enue, and a fourth location wasrecently approved by the villagefor Butterfield Road.

Calls placed to Peet’s Cof-fee’s corporate media linewere not returned.

New toy storeis comingto downtown

By ED [email protected]

DOWNERS GROVE – Anew toy store will open thisfall in the former My Favor-ite Toy Store location at 5137Main St. in downtown Down-ers Grove.

Former My Favorite ToyStore manager and buyerKathy Burns signed a leasefor the space and plans toopen her own business, MySpecial Toy Store, in October,she said.

Burns said she plans tocontinue the store’s reputa-tion for carrying unique andhard-to-find items not foundin big-box stores.

“Our focus, all the time,was to keep the store in thespecialty category,” she sad.“We carry very few thingsthat you’d find in the massmarket and the things thatwe did bring in were at thesuggestion and encourage-ment of customers.

“I am going to keep thesame philosophy and thesame kind of items or mer-chandise that we carried inthe past.”

The previous toy storeclosed both its DownersGrove and Elmhurst loca-tions in December when busi-ness loans taken by ownerMichael Geisen came due.

“We’re very excited to seeit full again, and especially

all the things people lovedabout her toy store is herproduct and the caliber andthe different innovative toysand items that she has inthere,” Downtown DownersGrove Management Corp.Executive Director LindaKunze said.

Burns of Darien said sheis excited to return to doingbusiness in the downtownDowners Grove business en-vironment.

“My 11 years in the priorstore were a very, very pos-itive experience, workingwith the residents of Down-ers Grove, and working withthe other shop owners,”Burns said. “I think it’s justa wonderful town to be a partof.”

The Elmhurst locationalso reopened as a new storethis spring named MainStreet Candy and Toys,owned by Preston and Victo-ria Brewton. The Brewtonsalso own Main Street Candyand Toys in Plainfield.

Burns said the new storewill maintain the same foot-print of the prior business,and most of the prep work en-tails painting, shelving andother redecorating, in addi-tion to procuring the new in-ventory.

Burns worked at the pri-or store for 11 years, the lastsix of which as the buyer andmanager.

THE ROOT CANALQ:What exactly is a root canal?A: A root canal is a procedure your dentist, oran endodontist, performs to treat problemsin the soft core inside the tooth, the materialknown as the dental pulp. It is the pulp thatholds the blood vessels, nerves and connectivetissue that keep the tooth alive. A deep cavity ora crack in the tooth can let bacteria get into thepulp. That causes an infection that eventuallywill create a pocket of pus at the tip of thetooth’s root in the jawbone. That pocket of pusis called an abscess. An abscess causes swelling,can become quite painful and can also damagethe bone around the tooth.The first step in a root canal procedure ismaking an opening in the crown of thetooth through which the dentist can removethe infected pulp. The interior of the tooth,including the canals in its roots, is cleaned outand sealed with a temporary filling. When theinfection is fully gone, the dentist will put anew permanent crown on the tooth.If you need a root canal, your dentist may, asmentioned above, refer you to an endodontist,a dentist who specializes in treating pulpproblems. Talk with your dentist for moreinformation about a root canal and about otherareas of dental specialty that may apply to yoursituation.

In mid-September, the Downers Grove Township multiplierwill be published, along with parcels having an assessmentchange for 2014.

Parcels that have had improvements built, demolished ora reassessment will be on the publication list. If you don’t seeyour parcel number, it meansthe assessor did not changethe assessed value of yourproperty from 2013 to 2014.

If a new structure is built orbeing built, the assessment isbased on what was on the prop-erty as of Jan. 1. For example,a house may only be 50 percentfinished Jan. 1 and completedat the end of April 2014. The as-sessment will reflect 50 percentof the building assessment (asof Jan. 1), plus a prorate fromMay through December forbeing 100 percent complete forthose eight months.

Demolition is much the same. If the building was still on theproperty as of Jan. 1, it will be assessed. However, if demolitiontakes place on May 10, the building assessment will be proratedto reflect no assessment from May 10 until the end of the year,given there is no new construction.

The parcels having building improvements or additionsmay be eligible for the Home Improvement Exemption. If theimprovement qualifies, this exemption is automatically ap-plied by the Assessor’s Office and will be reflected on your 2014tax bill, which you will receive in May 2015.

The publication will include, in the preamble, the DuPageCounty Supervisor of Assessment’s multiplier for Downers GroveTownship. This multiplier is applied to every parcel in the Town-ship. So, if your parcel is not on the publication list your assess-ment has still been changed by the application of the multiplier.

Once the publication is printed, property owners have 30 daysto file a formal complaint with the DuPage County Board of Re-view. If possible, however, discuss your assessment with someoneat the Assessor’s Office, as problems can be resolved there as well.

Theresa Cockrell is the assessor for the Downers GroveTownship.

SOUND OFFAutomatic doors requiredI am a handicapped senior inDowners Grove and frequentlyuse the Woodridge post office.This is another facility that doesnot have an automatic door. Iwalk with a cane and trying tojuggle a cane, my purse andpackages is a challenge whena post office does not have anautomatic door. I think all placesof business should be requiredto have automatic doors.

Deep Tunnel progress?On, Monday, Aug. 4, Another

significant rainfall and moreflooded basements. This aregular occurrence. Where arethe benefits of The Deep Tunnelproject. Why is Deep Tunnelstill not completed after morethan 35 years of construction.It didn’t take this long to buildthe Great Pyramid. Why are thecommissioners of the Metropol-itan Water Reclamation Districtnever on radio or TV to answerflood-basement questions. CookCounty residents deserve someanswers.

Theater should pay backI noticed co-owners of the La

Grange Theatre, who own otherbusinesses, are offering a jobfair. They want to give jobs tolocal residents. Well, if they wantto give back, maybe they canstart paying back the $100 giftthe La Grange Village Board gavethem a few years ago.

Looting is for thugsWhat is happening in Ferguson,

Mo., is no excuse for the lootingand destroying of the business-es and city. Any excuse to loot,

burn down the city is just athug’s way and very shameful.

Save the coyotesI’m commenting on “No right

to hurt coyotes.” I agree. We area nation that needs a four-bed-room house when only two peo-ple are living in it. And becauseof that, we have taken awaynatural habitat for our nativeanimals. They are only trying tosurvive. Stop leaving easy foodavailable, and they’ll stay out ofyour area. Thank you.

Keep Metra stations openI hear Metra is considering

raising ticket prices again. It’sa travesty how they have theirtrain stations closed and doorslocked from 1 o’clock in theafternoon forward. If vandalismis the excuse, that is no excuse.Hire someone, a rent-a-copor something. Those stationsneed to stay open to keep theirpatrons safe from the elements.

Keep dogs in your yardNo, it is not a fact of life that

dogs must be walked, andyou’re not irresponsible if youkeep your dog in your own yard.That’s just more liberal demo-cratic thinking that it’s OK thateverybody wants dog pee anddog poop in their yard. If you’regoing to own a dog, let it poopand pee in your own yard.

Stormwater questionsIn regards to Westmont’s

stormwater retention problem,will everyone benefit from thisendeavor? Having had problemswith stormwater getting in thesanitary sewers, which backed

up in my house, I am wonderingif this would take care of that.Years ago, we had the sanitarypeople inspect the sewer in thealley and was told it was anold, antiquated system madeof bricks, but nothing was doneabout it. Would like to know.

Keep lobbyists in checkDuPage County Clerk candi-

date Jean Kaczmarek brought a

great idea to the DuPage CountyBoard when they were renewingcontracts for lobbyists. She saidDuPage should mandate that re-porting requirements for lobby-ists be broadened and that thisinformation should be placedonline – the way it’s done inCook County. Five years ago, theCook County Board unanimouslypassed the Lobbyist SunshineInitiative which mandates all

lobbyists to report who they’relobbying, what they’re lobbying,dates of contact, all compensa-tion and any expenditures. Allthis information, including theirphotos, is posted on LobbyistsOnline. Through a public portal,taxpayers, the media and elect-ed officials can check out whatlobbyists are doing. It’s beenworking great in Cook County.Why not here?

A new beginningfor local business

I’m very proud to introduceto you, Chamber630.

This new organization isthe result of two great cham-bers, Downers Grove andWoodridge, joining forces andcreating an enthusiastic, inno-vative and dynamic chamber.From two very similar townsthat share high standards ofexcellence in education, rec-reation, administration andnow, a Chamber of Commerce.

Since the very first discus-sion on uniting these businesscommunities, in the forefrontof thought was, “This is goodfor business.”

This concept is duplicativeof the public sector modelthat recognizes the value ofincreased efficiencies andextending it to stakeholders,such as our school and firedistricts. I’m thrilled we final-ly caught on.

Chamber630 has a physicalpresence in both communitiesand you’re always welcome.

The north office is at 2001Butterfield Road in DownersGrove and the south office isat 5 Plaza Drive in Woodridge.We’ll continue with some ofthe same services such as theresidential greeter programs,Attainable Futures programfor high school students, thescholarship program and newteacher welcome, ribbon cut-tings, non-profit services andothers. We will center on mar-keting business, providing avoice of business, workforcedevelopment and networking

opportunities each Thursdayat a member business.

Please look for the veryfirst publication of the Cham-ber630 Community Guide &Business Directory, deliveredto your doorstep next month.You will find some history,community updates and, ofcourse, the list of businessesin which you prefer to con-duct business. These are thebusinesses that are committedto your community.

I encourage you to visitchamber630.com to find yourvendors, and please checkout the Community Calendaron the home page. It’s a greatway to stay connected.

On the evening of Sept. 10,we’ll be at the Tivoli recog-nizing business excellence,community contribution andindividual achievement. Gov.Quinn and gubernatorialcandidate Bruce Rauner havebeen invited to offer theirsupport of business in ourcommunities. I hope to seeyou there, visit chamber630.com for details.

Chamber630, it’s not justgood business, it’s good forbusiness and that’s good foryour community.

Laura Crawford is Presi-dent & CEO of Chamber630.

Sandack calls for staffpension practices review

By SCOTT REEDERIllinois News Network

It’s time for legislative staffmembers to start making con-tributions toward their ownpensions rather than havingtaxpayers pay it for them, stateRep. Ron Sandack said Aug. 12.

“We have some absolutelyterrific staffers who work longhours and don’t get paid verymuch, but the state just can’tafford to continue anyone’spension payments anymore,”the Downers Grove Republicansaid. “I don’t know the wholehistory for why the state paysthese contributions. There wasprobably a good reason at thetime. But all employees need tohave some skin in the game.”

Senate GOP spokeswomanPatty Schuh said originallystate government offered topick up the cost of most stateemployee pension contribu-tions in lieu of pay raises whenJim Edgar was governor.

However, when Rod Blagoje-vich was governor he ended the

practice and gave union work-ers in his administration broadpay raises instead, she said.

But legislative employeescontinued to have their pen-sion contributions covered.

During the past five years,the state has paid $145,000 to-ward the “employee portion”of the legislative staffer pen-sion contributions accordingto data obtained by the IllinoisNews Network from the Illi-nois Comptroller’s Office.

“At the time, we figured itwas a cheaper alternative thanoffering pay raises becausethey compound upon them-selves,” Schuh said.

Steve Brown, the longtimespokesman for House Speak-er Michael Madigan, said hedoesn’t know the underlyingreason legislative staffers areprovided this perk.

WHEATON – The DuPageCounty Health Departmenthopes a new constructionproject will make the care itprovides more inclusive andall-encompassing.

The department and sev-eral partner agencies brokeground Thursday on its new$11 million, 33,000-square-footcommunity center.

“We are on the cusp ofnot just breaking ground butblazing a trail,” said depart-ment board President LindaKurzawa. “[The center] willbe a collaborative effort,broadening the services thatwe do out into the communi-ty.”

The project, located at111 N. County Farm Road, isseven years in the makingand will be funded almostcompletely by departmentsavings, said Director KarenAyala. Partner organizationNational Alliance on MentalIllness of DuPage County pro-vided $1 million as a sort of“buy-in” to the shared space,said alliance Executive Direc-

tor Angela Adkins.The goal of the center is to

provide holistic support forthose using its services – thedemand for which has risen inrecent years, Ayala said.

“The building is being builtwith cash – cash that we haveprudently saved, struggled[for], always with the thoughtinmind that there are citizensto be served and it is the tax-payers of DuPage County thatprovide that,” Kurzawa said.

Set to open next fall, thespace will include a gym,courtyard, kitchen, multipur-pose space and offices for boththe department and the alli-ance.

DuPage County BoardChairman Dan Cronin saidthe idea of consolidating and

streamlining services be-tween public and private en-tities was not new to the coun-ty and that the partnershipsforged would “share our goalof wellness for all.”

Adkins said the new facil-ity would help participatingagencies improve care, partic-ularly in the world of mentalhealth where “medicine andtherapy ... doesn’t do it on itsown.”

She said five years ago, heragency was seeking to expandservices to better fit the needsof its population, especial-ly in the realms of housing,employment and social pro-grams.

When she conversationallymentioned that desire to thehealth department, it became

a natural partnership.“Social recreation is really

going to be where the healthdepartment services sort ofstart to taper off and ours willpick up,” Adkins said. “It’s acomplete flow – we anticipatethis building will be opera-tional 24/7.”

She said by partneringwith groups such as the West-ern DuPage Special Recre-ation Association, WheatonPark District and Bridge Com-munities, the center couldsynergize several resourcesto help to those with differentlevels of need.

Ultimately, Adkins said,she hopes its presence in thecommunity will bring volun-teers to assist with program-ming and normalize mentalillness.

“We’ll go to the commu-nity for artists and differentcommunity members whohave something to offer,” shesaid. “We’re going to reachout to the community at large... which ultimately will re-ally heighten the awarenessand lessen the stigma. Andthat’s really what we want todo.”

Longtime Illinois politi-cal observer and former statelawmaker Jim Nowlan said hebelieves staffers may benefitfrom their closeness to law-makers.

“I think the staffer’s prox-imity to state lawmakers mayverywell play a role in those onstaff getting this extra perk,”he said. “Of course, someonecould have decided that staff-ers don’t make that much andthis a way to help them out.But one thing is clear: It’s notright that this group of stateemployees are receiving thisbenefit while other state em-ployees aren’t.”

Of course legislative staff

salaries run the gamut.Fo r examp l e , House

Speaker Michael Madigan’slongtime chief of staff earns$191,000 annually, while manynew college graduates start onstaff in the mid-20,000s.

“Some people make a ca-reer of being on staff. Othersuse it for a stepping stoneto go work for various gov-ernment agencies, go to lawschool or go on to lobby,”Nowlan said. I’ve had manystudents go on staff over theyears.”

Nowlan taught political sci-ence at the University of Illi-nois.

Sandack said staf fersshouldn’t expect a perk suchas having pension contribu-tions covered by taxpayers.

“Staffers work hard longhours and don’t get paidvery much,” he said. “Butthey move on to more lucra-tive careers. Some do stay instate government and there isnothing wrong with that – itshonorable work. But the stateshouldn’t be paying anyone’spension contributions. Thisis something that should belooked at.”

Rev3 finalizes Naperville location, seeks to grow in DuPage CountyBy NATHAN LURZ

[email protected]

NAPERVILLE – After morethan a year of planning, devel-opment and support building,the first tenants of the Rev3Innovation Hub are nearing amove-in date.

Rev3 is the brainchild ofChoose DuPage, an organiza-tion devoted to driving eco-nomic development in thecounty. Its creators aim to fos-ter growth in up-and-comingindustries.

Choose DuPage BusinessServices Director NicholasZito said manufacturing andtechnology are industries inwhich companies generatejobs beyond their organiza-tions.

“For every dollar you in-vest in manufacturing, youget many more back in oth-er areas,” he said. “They areboth leading and emergingsectors.”

Three weeks ago, Rev3

signed a lease to rent offices,conference rooms and openspace at Northern IllinoisUniversity’s Naperville cam-pus, 1120 E. Diehl Road. Zitosaid it will offer an array ofoptions, including sharedcommon areas and computerlabs, conference rooms, pri-vate offices, a shipping facil-ity and a manufacturing labwith a 3-D printer.

These amenities are intend-ed to help businesses too smallto warrant a large space andthe enormous start-up costsof manufacturing a prototypethat still need a base of oper-ations.

“We have everyone froma true ideation stage, mean-ing they have a great idea onthe back of a napkin that they

think will be great that theyneed to see 3-D printed, allthe way up to the mid-level,established businesses,” hesaid.

The first seven member en-trepreneurs – amix of softwaredevelopers, e-commerce devel-opers, intellectual propertyattorneys and manufacturers– will move into the space inearly September. They andthe others that come after willshape Rev3’s offerings, Zitosaid. The hub’s organizers arealready looking at creatinga digital media studio withediting software and a greenscreen based on requests fromthe starting team.

All these efforts are expend-ed to foster an environment ofcollaboration and innovation

that will benefit DuPage Coun-ty manufacturing. Rev3 willhost a series of rotating men-tors who will have office hoursin the building to serve as a re-source for the up-and-comingbusinesses on how to developand market their products andservices.

“We want to help establishsupply here, hire people in thecounty and form partnershipswith big companies,” Zito said.“These businesses will be fos-tered here and hopefully growand stay here.”

Participating companieswill pay month-to-month touse the facility, with optionsfor discounted fees for longerleases, he said. Access rang-es from using the co-workingspace – including conferencerooms and other shared areas– at $150 per month up to a fulloffice rental for $900 to $1,000per month. Those who needthe manufacturing lab can pay$250 to $300 per month, pend-ing its implementation in Jan-uary. Rev3’s spaces would beopen 24-hours-per-day to caterto those working on start-upsalongside other responsibili-ties.

Zito said the hub’s cre-ators hope to have as manyas 350 members using its va-riety of services throughoutthe day.

“Our overall goal is not tojust keep them and have themin our space forever,” said in-tern Nicholas Kavanau. “Ourgoal is to provide the compa-nies what they need to moveon. As much as we like to havethem, we want to make com-panies that will go out intoDuPage County. We want togive themwhat they need witha lower overhead cost to formtheir company and graduatethem on.”

Zito said his history as abusiness owner has preparedhim for the work he plans to dowith Rev3.

“I am very excited to be anentrepreneur for entrepre-neurs,” he said. “I know frompersonal experience about allthe help and guidance that Ineeded but didn’t have accessto when I started my company.Sometimes we’re so focusedon getting our product to mar-ket and all the other auxiliarythings fall to the wayside. Soa collaborative environmentis 100 percent what it comesdown to.”

Area teenager pursuespassion for advocacywork through pageants

By ANNA [email protected]

LISLE – For 17-year-oldLisle resident and Miss Illi-nois’ Outstanding Teen GraceEtzkorn, beauty pageants areabout substance, not flash.

The Benet Academy se-nior, who in July traveled toOrlando, Fla. tovie for the titleof Miss Ameri-ca’s Outstand-ing Teen, tookher state sashin a dress witha rip at the bot-tom that shehad worn toseveral previous competitionsand prom.

“You don’t need a thou-sand-dollar dress to win,” shesaid. “They’re judging the girlin the dress, not the dress it-self.”

Instead, Etzkorn focus-es on presenting herself as awell-rounded and informedcontestant. She has partici-pated exclusively in pageantsaffiliated with the Miss Amer-ica Organization, an institu-tion she said she was drawn tobecause of its focus on serviceand scholarship opportuni-ties.

Since she began competingfor crowns, Etzkorn has expe-rienced her share of both.

As the teen representativefor the Miss Illinois Scholar-ship Association, she advo-cates for her “Keep the FutureBright Substance Free Youth”platform, which she estab-lished after her uncle died ofa drug overdose when she was14. Etzkorn also works withthe Miss America Organiza-tion’s Children’s Miracle Net-work platform.

She has received severalthousand dollars in collegescholarships, as well as spon-sorships with coaches and re-tailers for her pageant duties.

“She works hard, and sinceshe was really small, she’s al-ways had big dreams,” saidEtzkorn’s mother, Diane.“When she sees something,she just goes for it.”

That combination of workethic and ambition is part ofwhat brought Etzkorn thestate title.

She entered the Miss Il-linois’ Outstanding Teenpageant last year after beingcrowned Miss Chicago’s Out-standing Teen, but came infourth.

Not one to give up, shere-entered in 2014 as MissWindy City’s OutstandingTeen and won in June – on Fri-day the 13th, no less.

“Grace is incredibly intel-ligent and mature,” said MissChicago Scholarship Programco-executive director RachelJohnson. “She’s someone thatpeople want to talk to.”

Although she didn’t takehome a crown at nationals,Etzkorn will remain busy inthe coming months fundrais-ing, traveling and speaking aspart of her state duties.

She also is an Illinois youthrepresentative for the D.A.R.E.America Youth AdvisoryBoard, a role she fulfills by ap-pearing at schools and attend-ing conferences, including therecent D.A.R.E. InternationalTraining Conference in Grape-vine, Texas.

Additionally, Etzkorn is in-volved in Benet’s school news-paper, choir, musicals andFrench club.

Her hobbies include danc-ing, singing, playing guitarand piano, and acting. Hermost recent role was that ofErnestine in the Fox ValleyRepertory’s production of“Cheaper by the Dozen,” andshe has done voiceover andcommercial work in the pastfew months, although she saidher pageant duties are her firstpriority.

With one year of highschool remaining, Etzkorn isevaluating her college options.Finalists include New YorkUniversity, University of Cal-ifornia at Los Angeles, Pepper-dine University and AuburnUniversity.

She isn’t yet sure what ca-reer she wants to pursue, butis considering acting or jour-nalism.

WESTMONT – We’vealways been told it’s a badidea to go grocery shoppingwhen hungry, but at StandardMarket, that’s precisely theright time.

Tucked away inside theupscale grocery store sitsthe Standard Market Grill,offering its customers a casualyet delicious dining experi-ence. The spacious room’ssophisticated decor provides adramatic setting for the made-fresh-to-order cuisine.

The dishes are sourcedfrom the gourmet market’sfresh produce, seafood,in-house-aged meats, craftbeer and wine. Cocktails alsoare served. And overseeingthe menu is the same chef’steam behind the market’ssister enterprise, the elegantBakersfield restaurant acrossthe street.

At the Standard MarketGrill walk-up counter, guestsare greeted by two cashiers.After ordering your dish ofchoice, you have the option tosit wherever you please.

Open daily, the restaurantoffers seating at large boothsand high-top tables, alongwith an outdoor patio – myfavorite. The patio, wheremy companion and I choseto dine, is staged with largewooden tables, matchingchairs and umbrellas fittedwith heating lamps.

It set the perfect summernight mood for a tasty meal,and before we knew it, a waitersporting a red polo was placingtwo large plates on our table.

Although Standard MarketGrill offers a variety of soups,dinner entrees (N.Y. stripsteak and Duroc pork chop),fresh-ground burgers, pizzasand salads (seared tuna Cobb),it was the sandwich selectionthat caught both my and my

companion’s eye.As a meat lover myself,

I chose The 24-Hour Steaksandwich. Served on a softbaguette, the steak was com-plemented by blue cheese,buttermilk garlic dressing,mushrooms, balsamic cara-melized onions and arugula.

My fellow diner went withthe Cuban Chicken sandwichand delighted at the fact thatit looked exactly as he hadpictured. His sandwich pairedgrilled chicken with Swisscheese, chipotle aioli, smokedtavern ham, and sweet andspicy pickles, all piled on afreshly baked, soft baguette.

The moment our platesarrived, we dug in and didn’tstop until the final crumb wasdevoured.

With full bellies, we boththought we’d had enough,until we saw the grill’s RootBeer Float, a classic Americantreat. Delivering a perfectserving size of vanilla icecream and Chicago-style root

beer, the restaurant hit it outof the park.

Even though the eateryoperates with a fast-casualconcept, the wait staff was ex-tremely attentive, continuallychecking the dining room tobe sure guests were satisfied.

One of my favorite parts ofStandard Market Grill was thefact that when we venturedinto the grocery store aftereating ravenously, our shop-ping list didn’t grow by eightadditional items. We werealready full and content.

The Mystery Diner is anewsroom employee at Sub-urban Life Media. The diner’sidentity is not revealed tothe restaurant staff before orduring the meal. Only positivedining experiences will resultin published reviews.

Downers Grove NorthTrojansCoach: Jackie McCormick

Conference:West Suburban Silver

Top players YearElizabeth Eboli SeniorGracie Holler JuniorCortney Katz Junior

Outlook: With Gracie Hollerand Cortney Katz back in thefold, the Trojans possess a duothat can consistently post lowscores. Both Holler and Katzshot 97s at the regional tour-nament to qualify for the sec-tional last year. Madison Farn-sworth and Megan Kumiegaare also returning to varsity.

The Trojans started theseason Monday at the MarianCatholic invite and quickly fol-lowed that with the PlainfieldNorth invite Tuesday. Northwill compete in the JolietSteelwomen invite Saturdaybefore starting the WSS dualmeet season Monday againstLyons Township.

By DAN [email protected]

LISLE – After making aname for himself while play-ing for his dad at Creighton,Doug McDermott was tradedto the Chicago Bulls on draftnight after being selected bythe Denver Nuggets with the11th overall pick.

McDermott recentlycompleted his first summerleague with the Bulls andspent some time with the USASelect Team along with Bullsteammate Jimmy Butler.McDermott visited the Bulls/Sox Academy on Aug. 13for a Chicago Bulls All-DayPlayer Camp, where he signedautographs for young fansand spoke with members ofthe media, including Subur-ban Life sports reporter DanSantaromita.

What was your experience likewith the Select Team and getting achance to be around [Bulls coach TomThibodeau]?

McDermott: It was reallycool just to get a chance to bearound them. Obviously I canlearn a lot from them, and I’mgoing to have a chance to dothat coming up here prettysoon.

How was Derrick Rose doing?McDermott: He was real

focused. He wanted to get outthere and show what he cando, and he did. He was reallygood to meet beforehand.

How good was it to see him prac-ticing and playing?

McDermott: It’s been great.We knew it was coming thewhole time because we saw itleading up to summer league,so it wasn’t a big surpriseto us when he was out thereplaying well for USA. It’sgreat to see and great for us asteammates to see that.

Is everything going how youexpected for you this summer?

McDermott: I always expect todo well. I put in a lot of work.As long as I keep doing that Iexpect good things to happen.I’m sure there will be somebumps here and there, butthat’s just the way basketballis. I’m just looking forward to

contributing to a really goodteam.

Was is hard to hear your name intrade rumors?

McDermott: I didn’t follow ittoo much. I looked at it as I’man NBA player either way soyou can’t complain. I’m justglad I’m here. I feel that theyreally like me here. I feel likeI’m wanted and I want to helpout this team.

Has playing with the Select Teamthe past two years helped you?

McDermott: It really has.They’ve given me so muchmore confidence, just beingable to play against the bestplayers in the world goinginto a college season and myfirst NBA season. There’s notany better way to drive your-self than going against thebest players in the world.

What have you been working onmost in your game this summer?

McDermott: Ball handling,working on my range and,with coach Thibodeau, de-fense. He preaches defense, sothat’s something I got to getbetter at and that’s somethingI’m looking forward to work-ing with him.

How much do you enjoy events like[the camp] that help you learn a littlebit more about your community?

McDermott: It’s great. It’s justawesome being around thekids and the fans. It showswhat kind of support the cityhas to offer. It’s great helpingout and giving kids advicebecause I was in their shoesone day and they’re all hopingto get into mine.

Who did you follow growing up?McDermott: I liked the Bulls a

lot. I hate to admit it, but I wasa huge Reggie Miller Pacersfan, but I liked the Bulls. I’m aMidwest kid and you dream ofplaying for Chicago, especiallywatching MJ (Michael Jordan).

What’s been the biggest adjust-ment of becoming a pro basketballplayer?

McDermott: Just the life-style, the routines. Being ableto manage your time well.You’re not scheduled to do

stuff. You have to show up onyour own and get it done.

Have you had a chance to stepaway off the basketball court?

McDermott: A little bit. Nota lot, though. I plan on doingthat here in two weeks or soand take a little time off beforegetting ready for trainingcamp and try to hit the golfcourse a little bit.

Has Thibodeau told you how he’sgoing to use you?

McDermott: I haven’t talkedto him a whole lot about that. Ithink we’re still learning eachother. I think we’re both com-fortable with each other, whichis good. I think me and KyleKorver, the way they used hima little bit. I’m starting to watchfilm on him. I’m trying to pickup on things they ran for himand other shooters in the past.

38HEALTH WATCH

By Jay HancockKaiser Health News

The Affordable Care Act was supposed tomendwhat Presi-dent Barack Obama called a broken health care system, butits best-known programs— online insurance and ex-pandedMedicaid for the poor— affect a relatively small

portion of Americans.A federal office you’ve probably never heard of is supposed to fix

health care for everybody else.The law created the Center forMedicare andMedicaid Innova-

tion to launch experiments in every state, changing the way doc-tors and hospitals are paid, building networks among caregiversand training them to intervene before chronic illness gets worse.One example: GeorgeWashingtonUniversity’s $1.9million

award to improve care and cut costs for at-home dialysis patients.Another: CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield’s $24million grant to re-duce unnecessary hospital visits for chronically ill Medicare pa-tients.The center’s 10-year, $10 billion budget is the largest ever de-

voted to transforming care. In several states the office is working tooverhaul medicine for nearly all residents— not just those withgovernmentMedicare andMedicaid coverage.Every fewmonths it awards test grants of $3million or $10mil-

lion each— or sometimes tens of millions— to community groups,clinics, hospitals, insurance companies, nursing homes and states.Its programs touchmillions of patients. Hundreds of organizationshave gottenmoney.More than $2 billion has been doled out orcommitted since 2011.

Skeptics on both sidesOne of the biggest experiments is the center itself. Skeptics, in-

cluding Republicans but also those who support the health law,wonder if it’s up to the task.“While I certainly appreciate innovation in the delivery of health

care, the CMMI is just another big government bureaucracy cre-ated by Obamacare that costs billions and duplicates other efforts,”Utah Sen. OrrinHatch, ranking Republican on the Senate FinanceCommittee, said through a spokesman. Hatchmused at a hearinglast year whether the center’s hundreds of tests represent “barelycontrolled chaos.”Even policy pros who hope the innovation lab succeeds wonder

if its investment will pay off and complain that it is slow to discloseinformation on spending and results.“This is absolutely necessary” to try to change how care is bought

and delivered, says Christopher Koller, president of theMilbankMemorial Fund, a nonprofit that works to improvemedical deci-

sionmaking. “Is this the right way to do it? A whole bunch of ex-periments? Is the innovation center adequately resourced in an ad-ministrative way to do this? The jury is still out on this.”

Who’s getting moneyWith a staff of 265 and growing, CMMImust not only adminis-

ter ACOs and other reimbursement tests that reward quality careat lower cost. It alsomanages hundreds of grants and dozens ofcontractors hired tomonitor and evaluate the programs.Projects tend to focus on people with expensive diseases such as

cancer, diabetes, heart failure and schizophrenia. In one round ofgrants, awardees were urged to deploy projects “as rapidly as possi-ble” and show results within six months.The JohnsHopkins University got $19.9million to improve care

for East Baltimore’s chronically sick andmentally ill. An Asian-American community group got $2.7million to help low-incomeCalifornians navigate themedical system. TheUniversity of Ten-nessee got $3million to help ensure repeat hospital patients inMemphis stay on their medications after discharge. IntermountainHealth Care got $9.7million to test software that forecasts the bestways for caregivers to interact with patients.Many efforts don’t just involve the elderlyMedicare and poor

Medicaid patients inHHS’ primary insurance programs. Six statesincludingMaine, Arkansas andOregon got up to $45million eachto involve commercial insurers and their members as well as gov-ernment programs in trials to improve health and control costs.

TIP OFTHEWEEK

Prep for betterweekday eatingEating healthy starts

in your own kitchen.Homemade meals takea little extra planning,but you can cut caloriesand add more nutrientsif you do it yourself.Here’s the plan:Sunday setup: Desig-

nate one day as “Planand Prep” for the entireweek. Make a list ofyour week’s meals andthe ingredients re-quired, then go groceryshopping.When you gethome, it’s time to prep.Some advice:■ Make sure you

have storage containersand an insulated lunchbox. They make trans-portation and storageof food much easier.

■ Grill or bake aweek’s worth of chickenbreasts.

■ Brown groundturkey or beef that canbe tossed in with eggsand pasta sauces.

■ Make a batch ofquinoa or brown rice touse for breakfast por-ridges, salads or sidedishes.

■ Hard boil a dozeneggs for on-the-go pro-tein snacks.

■ Slice and dice aweek’s worth of fruitsand veggies for stir-fries, salads and easysnacking.

■ Use your slowcooker. If you’re OKwith eating the samefood a few times aweek, start the slowcooker overnight onSunday and portioninto individual contain-ers the next morning.Make a versatile meatlike pulled chicken orpork to use in a varietyof styles: sandwiches,salads, pitas andpastas.

RELISHMAGAZINE

By the editors of Relish Magazine

Cooks discovered the benefits of cooking andbaking with sodas years ago. Chocolate cakemade with Coca-Cola is almost a staple in theSouth; 7Up appears in pound cake; Spriteforms the base for punches of all kinds; and Or-ange Crush gives zing to sherbet. So it should

come as no surprise that root beer makes an excellent mari-nade and sauce for ribs. As a marinade, the sugar flavors themeat, while the carbonation tenderizes it.Barbecue aficionados have a lot to disagree about. Should

the meat be cooked wet or dry, with a sauce or without?

Should ribs be pork or beef, spare ribs or baby backs? Doesparboiling help or hurt the cooking process? Should yousoak wood chips or just throw them dry on the fire? Onething is for sure: These ribs, double-doused in root beer, arefinger-licking good.The sugar and carbonization in root beer (or any soda)

play a major role in tenderizing and flavoring the ribs, butany soda will work: Dr. Pepper, Cheerwine, Ginger Beer —you name it.This recipe is designed with tender baby-back ribs in

mind. If you prefer larger, meatier spare ribs, simply reducethe oven temperature to 300F, and increase the cookingtime to 3 1/2 to 4 hours.

Root Beer Baby Back Oven RibsBrine and ribs:■ 1/4 cup coarse salt■ 1/4 cup dry rub barbecue seasoning for pork (use yourfavorite)■ 24 ounces root beer, divided■ 2 racks baby-back pork ribsSauce:■ 1 cup ketchup■ 1 cup root beer■ 1/2 cup cranberry or apple juice■ 2 TWorcestershire sauce■ 2 T apple cider vinegar■ 1/4 cup light brown sugar■ 2 T dry rub barbecue seasoning for porkTo prepare brine, combine salt, dry rub and half the root beer

in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring con-stantly, until salt and seasoning dissolve. Remove from heat.Add remaining root beer. Let cool completely in the refrigerator.

Pat ribs dry. Use a sharp chef’s knife to score “X” patterns intothe membrane that runs along the back (concave) side of theribs. Combine ribs and brine in a ziptop plastic bag and mari-nate in the refrigerator 12 to 24 hours.Preheat oven to 375F.Drain ribs and discard brine.Wrap each rack in 2 layers of

heavy-duty aluminum foil. Place in oven and bake until tender,but not falling apart, about 1½ to 2 hours. (Make ahead tip: Ribsmay be prepared in advance up to this point, wrapped in plasticand stored for several days in the refrigerator.)To prepare sauce, combine all ingredients in a small saucepan.

Bring to a boil overmediumheat,whisking occasionally.Reduceheat and simmer 20minutes to thicken, stirring occasionally. Letcool, cover and store in the refrigerator up to 1month.When you’re ready to finish cooking the ribs, heat broiler.

Slice foil packets open along the top of each rack and peel back.(You may remove the foil completely, but leaving it on makescleanup easier.) Brush the exposed ribs liberally with sauce andbroil until caramelized and bubbly, about 5 minutes. Makes 2 fullracks and 3 cups sauce.
