But wait, perhaps there is more. The intent to identify this woman as beautiful is not meant to offend any readers. Our culture has changed from earlier days when it was common for a man or a woman to recognize each other as attractive, beautiful or even handsome. Political correctness has perceptions of natural beauty that has endured through the ages. It could perhaps remain possible that individuals from differing genders could first be attracted to one another and second, to recognize elements of their physical appearance that is attractive to their eye. Emotions can add to the perceptions without degenerating oneself to a chauvinistic expression of recognition about others. However, in this modern day with modern perceptions the expression of deep feelings can be daunting. However, even to an untrained objective eye, Ms. Sager was a beautiful young woman. She was also draped in clothing with the hat, the dress and the hairstyles that was the object of appreciation for men and women in the 1890s when the image of the Gibson Girl swept across newspaper and magazine pages in stylized pencil drawings. Of course, publishing and media reporting in the 1890s was a very different age with abjectly different sensibilities than today. For example, the discrete recognition of a young woman s ankle was an images of great attraction for men of all ages. Skirt lengths in those days brushed the pebbles from the wooden sidewalks whereas skirt lengths today perhaps should not properly be described using the term length. In the 1890s only a most indiscrete woman would allow her ankle to be exposed to the light of day or to the eye of a passersby. Whereas so many elements of male/female relations are not left any longer to mystery or uncertainty, most of those elements in the 1890s were shrouded in mystery and uncertainty. The Gibson Girls of the 1890s was the idealization of feminine beauty. The image that was the basis for this idolatry was created by an illustrator of that day, Charles Dana Gibson. The term of his work and the longevity of the Gibson Girl images sustained through the 1890s into the early decades of the 20th Century. His images were the forerunner of what would follow through the 1930s and the 1940s when pin-up girls were found inside the lockers of soldiers around the world. In the case of the Gibson Girls, they were often depicted as a duo or a trio or more of these young women wearing what were called beach costumes as they looked demure in the sand with the surf lapping the beach sands behind them. It has been said that Gibson s young female images combined the more attractive elements and image of the fragile lady that was popular earlier with a more voluptuous image for women that was coming in vogue in that era. Ms. Sager shown here has her curly hair flowing over her fur-trimmed coat and the jaunty hat to finish her image that she and, perhaps others, thought was idea for a portrait sitting at the Gardiner Studios, a former Belvidere photographer. Gardiner was a portrait photographer and portrait work was common and far more popular than is the case today. Gardner had modified his home into a studio where he had chairs, furnishings and other props to integrate into a glamorous portrait of a young woman, a handsome young man or a comfortable family image. Portrait photography was how the famous Civil War photographer, Matthew Brady made his living before he began to follow armies into battle from 1881 through In many instances, Brady made his money by satisfying the wishes of young soldiers that were marching into war and they wanted to sit before his view camera for a portrait, in case he was killed in battle or died of disease behind the lines. Ms. Sager shown here was a Gibson Girl. She assumed an almost Mona Lisa smile that was not a smile. She perhaps unconsciously assumed such an expression that more resembled what Gibson sought in the marvelous drawings of woman that he created. It was not the practice of that day for the subject of a portrait photograph to assume what is called today a photo-face before the lens was opened for the light to pass into the box to create an image on treated glass. We do not know if Ms. Sager was a student, perhaps a teacher or maybe one of the early secretaries that was an occupation option for young men and young women at the turn of the 19th Century. There is one truth that can be stated with certainty, she was beautiful. Is it a transgression of taste to state the truth about someone? Certainly some of the truths about people are uncomfortable however the truth of the statement, She is beautiful is factually Liquor License Fee: Redux By James Middleton The discussion sustained for more than an hour which is unusual for a Belvidere City Council committee of the whole meeting. The extent of the debate was unusual as no final action is taken in committee meetings. The subject that attracted so much attention was a repeat of the ongoing debate over the scope of liquor license application fees to be charged potential entrepreneurs by the city. The matter came to light as an item that had been tabled in the January 14 City Council meeting. The debate was tabled too allow the new aldermen and mayor chosen in the April consolidated election to have the opportunity to decide a matter that they would manage instead of the previous mayor and aldermen. The result of the extended debate had the aldermen agreeing that an ordinance should be prepared to amend the city liquor code. The current liquor code requires that anyone applying for a license to sell liquor by the bottle or by the drink must pay the city $20,000 with their application. An amended motion was approved by a vote of 7 3. The measure Beautiful accurate and should not be perceived as offensive. The fact that Ms. Sager prepared herself the day of the photograph to appear as beautiful should go without saying. Young women of today could only be so fortunate to have the facial structure and the hair and the savoir-faire that accented who Ms. Sager might have been when she sat for her Gibson Girl portrait. The Journal wants to thank the Boone County Historical society for allowing use of the photograph. We also want to acknowledge that valuable research assistance was obtained at Wikipedia.com the Internet Encyclopedia. provided for convenience stores, package liquor stores, bars and taverns and restaurants outside downtown to continue to pay the $20,000 application fee. The measure further would provide for restaurants and diners that sell liquor by the drink within the downtown historic overlay district would pay an application fee of $10,000. With the approval the measure will advance to ordinance form for later consideration and, potential, final action. The measure could return in two weeks at the next full City Council meeting for a first reading and would be followed two weeks after that date for a second reading. The essence of the debate had aldermen discussing if the current $20,000 application fee was too high or if a reduced fee would be appropriate. Another element that was discussed had the aldermen wondering if they should establish a limitation on the number of liquor licenses that could arise in the downtown neighborhood or in any other ward in the city. No resolution was reached on that question. Belvidere Mayor Michael Chamberlain opened discussion of the question by recognizing one of the owners of the Sweetery as potential future liquor license applicants. He said his wife wanted to open an Irish Pub themed establishment. He added, The cost of your license is $20,000 and others around the area charge about $1,700. I won t pay $20,000 for a license. The gentleman also asked what he and his wife would receive for continued to page...2

2 2 July 26 th., 2013 The Boone County Journal In Our 18th Year continued from page...1 Liquor License Fee the $20,000 application fee. The mayor opened the floor for the aldermen to respond and Alderman Clint Morris (Ward #1) led the opposition to reducing the application fee. He spoke of how the previous city administration was opposed to reducing the application fee. He advised, Liquor license holders should not be a revolving door (with multiple new owners), there is just too much at risk. The essence of his argument was that the fee is a part of doing business and, he added, You need to be able to afford to be in business. City clerk Shauna Arco told the aldermen, in the last five years, the city has sold 12 liquor licenses costing $20,000 for each application. Mr. Morris concluded by saying, I don t agree that serving liquor downtown will renovate downtown. Alderman Ronald Brooks (Ward #4) broached the idea of restricting the number of liquor licenses downtown and to expand license sales in other wards. Alderman Daniel Snow (Ward #2) told his colleagues, when the subject of license fees had come earlier, he favored a reduced fee of $10,000. That didn t work, he said, and added, I don t want a whole bunch of taverns to appear. He concluded by saying, I support a bar or liquor store to pay an application fee of $10,000. I would suggest that a restaurant would pay an application fee of $7,500 and should serve 50 percent of their gross income in food. After additional comments were made Mr. Morris asked, How many licenses should we sell? We have not had a problem selling them (liquor licenses). Mayor Chamberlain said that he and Mr. Drella had reviewed the city liquor code. He said the city sold one new license last week and he said the city had made contact with three other entrepreneurs that are considering the purchase of a license. They (the applicant and the three other interested parties) are also interested, the mayor said, in having gaming machines. The mayor acknowledged that he had previously thought the $20,000 fee was high. He suggested he did not want to see a tiered licensing scale in the city. It is all liquor, the mayor said regarding a differentiated cost depending upon the use of the applicant. The mayor also asked the aldermen to be consistent with the licensing code. Along those lines, some of the aldermen asked, if the application fee was reduced, would the city owe a refund to the existing license holders? The mayor spoke of the loss of revenue if liquor fees were reduced. Our costs go up by seven percent each year, the mayor said, and our annual levy remains flat. We have to be very careful here. The mayor concluded, We should answer what is a reasonable number of licenses and what is a reasonable fee. Mr. Snow placed a motion on the floor to reduce the liquor license application fee to $10,000. After further debate Mr. Morris offered an amendment asking for approval to retain the $20,000 application fee for bars, taverns, packaged liquor stores and convenience stores. He also asked for approval to reduce the application fee to $10,000 for restaurants and diners serving liquor by the drink within the downtown historic overlay district. The vote on the amendment was 6 4 and was approved. More debate followed with the vote on the amended motion passing by a vote of 7 3. The question of amending the city liquor code will move forward to the next full City Council meeting that occurs on August 6. There will not be a City Council meeting next week as that is the fifth Monday of July. Two weeks later in August the new liquor ordinance would come for a second reading and could be decided in that meeting. GUEST COLUMN Where The Wild Goose Goes Some say America has lost its common sense! Many of us have lived in Belvidere and Boone County for a long time. When I was a youngster Belvidere had the most beautiful city park of any small town in our area. Bill Grady SR got the swimming pool built. This was during the Depression PWA or WPA. We really enjoyed the pool, swinging bridge and the dam. We were always fishing in the park. A new baseball diamond was built in honor of Joe Lewis, a long standing coach at Belvidere High School. Then the remodeling of the Baltic Mill Area thanks to the Arts Council. Our park was clean, tidy, and very beautiful. Now, however, the park is over run with Canadian Geese, at times by the thousands. Every shore road and walkway is filled with goose dung. We can t shoot them. These are special Migratory Water Fowl! Where do they migrate to? They are here year round. At times on Je Lewis Baseball field there are hundreds of geese on the ground. Our kids can slide into third base summer and winter-it s filled with goose dung. Last summer a young mother was trying to clean up her young two year old who had been chewing on goose manure. Last April the IOU Club has their annual Easter egg hunt in the park. Several areas had to be shoveled off and cleaned to make marked areas for children to be able to search for wrapped Easter candy. Years ago we used to marvel at the flocks of geese and ducks migrating to their chosen areas. Now due to our extended land use and better farming procedures there is plenty of food for the geese year round! Why don t we have a longer migrating bird hunting season and let the sportsmen pay higher fees and clear out thousands of geese. With proper control by the Fish and Game Department it could be well supervised and more money would come in for extra officers. Jack Wolf Complaints of Improper Appointments Procedure By Ronnie Thompson When voting on new appointments, the usual method preferred by the Boone County Board is to make their decision in one vote--yay or nay--for all appointees. This would have been the case during the June 17th Boone County Board meeting but three County representatives; Catherine Ward (District 2), Bill Pysson (District 1), and Kenneth Freeman (District 3) protested. The representatives claimed that they were not given a full list of all the applicants. The representatives held that they did not receive resumes, or applications from any of the possible appointees and that they would not be able to vote for their appointments. It should be understood that the chairman is not required to supply this information. According to Illinois state law, the chairman must consult with the local political party Any order of $10 or more Not valid with any other offers. Valid at Belvidere Location Only. Must present ad at time of service. Expires 08/2/13 Culver s of Belvidere 1635 Big Thunder Blvd. (Across from Shopko) leaders for their recommendations. The chairman then chooses whoever he wants to nominate and proceeds to seek approval and advice from the county board. At the time of the meeting Chairman Bob Walberg (District 1) stated that he was in disbelief that the representatives had not received all the paperwork that he and other board members had in front of them. Though, on the next day Mr. Walberg stated in an interview that the misunderstanding resulted from an unfortunate mixture of secretarial missteps and technological misplacements, and nothing more. The chairman went on to say that at the time of the complaints, he didn t quite understand them, but now that he has seen what happened, he takes full responsibility for the information not getting to the board members. The County Board members placed a motion on the floor to delay a vote on appointments, but the motion failed. All appointments went on as scheduled, albeit one by one. The Board appointed John Hare, Bob Carlson, and Joann Roddewig to the Mental Health Advisory Committee with Harriet Roll serving as chairman; Greg Holmes, Mark Pollock, Brad Bartell, and Paul Moses to the 911 board; and Mark Rhode and Tony Savino to the Zoning Board of Appeals. The mental health advisory committee is still looking for a psychiatrist and someone who has benefited from a mental health program to serve on the board. Also, during the meeting, the Board both declared a vacancy and filled that vacancy with Belvidere resident Chris Berner. He is filling the spot held by former District 3 board member Mike Shultz who had served on the board for two and a half years. The vacancy was declared after Mr. Shultz moved out of the county, and was required by law to resign his position. Before a vote was held Mr. Berner addressed the board; I look forward to working with the board to move the county ahead when the economy picks up in the next few years. He was elected to serve with an 8 3 vote. Those voting against Mr. Berner did so, not because of any fault with him but because of the procedural problems previously mentioned. The new representative, Chris Berner (District 3), was sworn in on the spot and given full privileges of a County Board member. When Mr. Berner was asked how it felt to be sitting on the Boone County Board, he simply said awesome. His response was accurate because of the smile on Mr. Berner s face as he voted on his first motion. He also said that he has always wanted to get involved at the grassroots level and hopes to make a positive impact on the community. $ Curved Curved $ Straight $169.99

3 In Our 18th Year The Boone County Journal July 26 th., A Precursor Some have claimed that what occurred last week in Detroit with their bankruptcy filing was an isolated incident. Others claim that many cities and perhaps even states could follow. Taxpayer, businesses, corporations and municipalities can file for federal bankruptcy protection is based upon the belief from the Common Law that debtors should not be punished but given a second chance. Bankruptcy is an option when debt grows too high and revenue is either stagnant or in decline. The president promised to save Detroit but his remarks could not deter what became the inevitable. Explanations abound for why Detroit now lays in financial ruins but most reasons given are political and bear little truth as to why the filing had to occur. In very simple terms, the city is almost $18 billion in debt with annual tax collections at/or below $1 billion and in decline. The city also bears a massive public worker pension obligation that city taxpayers cannot afford to pay nor can they sustain the ever growing line of new pensioners seeking benefits. Detroit unemployment is a serious problem, the inventory of foreclosed and abandoned homes also contribute to declining property value and tax collections. But the problems that forced Detroit to take this action is in front of many other towns, cities, counties and states including Illinois. Illinois legislators estimate that taxpayers face a better than $100 billion public pension obligation in a few short years. What is perhaps of greatest concern to creditors as well as labor leaders and the city of Detroit is that bankruptcy trustees have significant and broad powers. For example, in the United Airlines bankruptcy, to save the corporation and employee pensions without breaching contracts to unions and bond holders, trustees were allowed by the trustee to lay-off some of that pension obligation onto taxpayers. Similar events occurred in the General Motors bankruptcy when the current administration took control of those proceedings. Union contracts and pensions were protected and that protection was paid by taxpayers and corporate bond holders that were sacrificed as were retired people across the nation that held these bonds that were devalued. However, one problem in Detroit that disables the city s recovery is a severe unemployment rate. Abandoned houses are found across the city with no one maintaining the structures. Property values are in deep decline and there is no sign of improvement ahead. With little hope for immediate or long-term improvement the city had very few options and followed the lead of others. In May, 2008 Vallejo California filed for bankruptcy and was then the largest such filing. In November, 2011 Vallejo emerged from their bankruptcy only to be followed in June, 2012 by Stockton California. Then Vallejo Mayor Anthony Intinoli was cited as saying the city was paying three full-time salaries for police and firefighters. The first salary was for current workers, the second salary paid those former workers receiving disability support for injuries and the third full-time salary was paid to retired workers. This scene is repeated in thousands of cities, counties and states across the nation with no end in sight. What is most difficult for municipalities to manage is that salaries, benefits, pensions and disability coverage are all protected under contractual obligations as are municipal bonds that fund debt. The current and former workers are all expecting that the city will oblige their pension contract. Bonds holders are also expecting the municipality to oblige their contract. Principal recovery and interest payments are all contractually obligated. However, in Vallejo, Stockton and now Detroit, property tax revenue could not keep pace with current and future promises for pension obligations and bonding payments and other needs. The situation of indebtedness in Illinois is similar as the state has felt three bond rating declines and now the state is at the bottom of all 50 states in terms of credit worthiness. This situation cannot sustain yet nothing is being done in Illinois to avoid the end that was met in Detroit. The Illinois General Assembly enacted policy decades ago that allowed the state to fund pensions only to cover current pension needs. Promises were issued by the state to fund the pensions but legislators did not fund the pensions as other political needs took precedent. Legislator s promised state public employees that the money would be there when they retired. Thus far that promise has been sustained but it remains uncertain for how long that promise can remain without radical pension reform. The current unfunded and future pension obligations in Illinois will reach over $100 billion unless major reform follows. Taxpayers and political leaders along with media officials and alleged journalists are all parading behind Nero as he plucks his magnificent violin while Rome burns. Nero was the fifth emperor of Rome and historians believe that he committed arson setting Rome ablaze to realize his dream to build his colossus, the Domus Aurea. Legislators and taxpayers are fiddling as they ignore an end that does not need to be the inevitable. Illinois legislators and those around the nation continue to ignore unemployment and rising numbers of indigent citizens. Even civil rights leaders ignore the unemployment problems within their race that leads to declining property tax levels, escalating debt just to maintain the norm and increasing rates of bankruptcy while more and more formerly productive citizens opt for entitlement opportunities that replace employment options. It is difficult to reason why civil rights and political leaders wrangle over the verdict in a show-trail while their brethren suffer under deadening unemployment and live in communities where their brothers kill their children. Perhaps the primary motivating reason to lead marches protesting a verdict is because TV cameras will attend those events. The ever increasing pension tsunami could engulf this nation. Other states have brought this obligation under control but Illinois cannot. The bankruptcy trustee have two options; they can reform the contract set with public workers and deny them the full pensions that were promised or the trustee can amend the contract with bond holders and reduce those payments letting insurance companies make up the difference. There continues to be little motivation for legislators to reduce the entitlements they enacted years ago or to even alter them. Either option is not palatable but it is likely in Detroit that a bankruptcy trustee will decide which group will suffer reform and to what extent that reform will reach. Some wonder if pension benefits paid to public workers are exorbitant. In comparison to pension benefits, if any in the private sector, those benefits for public workers were certainly fair. The more pertinent question asks if the current local, county or state governments can afford the pension benefits that have been promised. There are many that do not want to acknowledge that local and state governments can run out of money. There is today not enough money for these governments to sustain unless legislators take serious steps to reform the promises they have made in exchange for votes. Legislators must take a serious look at what the future holds in terms of revenue increases and decide what a government can do given the current economic situation in America.

As a Parent, Property Tax Payer and Volunteer in North Boone Community School District 200 I find it appalling that our Superintendent received a 20% pay increase beginning in the school year as the contract dated January 23, 2012 states. Superintendent Baule went from $149, for the school years , and as stated in his March 18, 2010 contract to now watch the wording... salary not less than $180, in the school year This contract dated January 23, 2012 states in the first paragraph the superintendent is herby hired and retained from July 1, June 30, I am curious as to what his pay will be increased to for , and as the new contract does not address this. A few weeks later the Budget Cuts began. When I asked what goals needed to be met for such an increase Appendix A was provided and states the following. Improve data assessment systems in an effort to better interpret and utilize the data for curricular improvement for student improvement. Improve the technology resources available throughout the district. Refine and implement a Response to Intervention Model for the district. Develop a communications plan for the district. I am not certain if any of these tasks were done on the 25 workdays as vacation, 4 Personal days, 12 sick days, with 34 additional sick days granted first year, 30 additional sick days granted second year. But the mere mention of this number of sick days, well makes me sick. Something that may need to be reviewed before pay increases are issued is the actual affect ouradministration s decisions are having on our kids. Of the 6 schools in NBCUSD 200 the High School is still on Academic Warning, Poplar Grove Elementary (largest Elementary School) is on Academic Early Warning Status and 2 others Capron and Middle School did not make Annual Yearly Progress according to the Illinois Interactive Report Card. Manchester and North Boone Upper Elementary are in good standing. Out of 775 Districts in Illinois, NBCUSD is ranked 520th, As Superintendent Baule often refers to Districts East of us doing this or that in order to influence Board Members to vote for various purchases/ Programs.

The vast majority of our Teachers have our kids best interest at heart, but with an Administration that doesn t support a curriculum teaching the basics, but rather teaching for the standardized test our kids are being given the bare minimum. Superintendent Baule gets far more than the bare minimum at least 20% more with no apparent cap. Baule is more interested in spending large amounts of money for tech gadgets or possible quick fix items like Pearson en Vision Math (which you can google and see the number of Districts dissatisfied with them) this program was partially sold as a way to reduce funds toward textbooks; however books were still purchased with this horrible program. Joke of the Week!! Take out a pen and paper, the teacher said. Imagine you are a millionaire, and write an essay on how your feeling. All the children started writing their essay except for Willy. Why aren t you writing your essay, Willy? asked the teacher. I m waiting for my secretary, he replied. 920 W. Locust Street, Belvidere, IL This year our Library Staff was cut ( in hopes of finding volunteers to staff) as was our Nursing Staff and Aides. Not surprisingly Reading is one of the major areas of the State Report Card where we are failing and have been for some time. Another Tech Expense that seems to have passed is the Tablet Pilot Program for 7th Grade. I had asked in the June 24th Board Meeting that this item go out for a referendum as it is a Pilot (test) program, and the District would be changing long term infrastructure. The contract for MapleNet Services for high-speed internet only is: High Speed is $8,600per month X 60 months= $516, Possible Reduction with/e-rate $5,590per month X60 months= $335, This does not include tablet purchase and/or repair costs and other miscellaneous pilot program items. Just high-speed internet. If our Budget was/is already in the red, Why are we spending money on a test program and signing contracts for 5 years? I do not know if Superintendent Baule would use our tax dollars and our kids education time as trials to collect data/research for one of his tech books to be published, but I would hope not. At the June 24th Board Meeting I asked the School Board to review weather a conflict of interest exists with our School Board President being the Employer of a School Board Member. I believe the Vice President or another Board Member should step into the role of President in order to ensure votes are based on the issue at hand only Lets demand more for our kids. Each of them deserves a chance at the future they want, whatever it may be...they each have dreams and its our job and our responsibility to give them the footing they need to keep climbing til they reach it and say I did it! and the skills to carry them further and say Hey, I can do it again!

The committee members Gretchen came to were invited to visit Boone County Animal and tour the facility and Services and Adoption Center as a stray. see for ourselves what She is a one year old the place looked like. spayed American After I completed the Pitbull Terrier and is tour, my assessment is great with other dogs that the current facility and children. Gretchen needs to be bulldozed. is currently available This building was not for adoption. designed for Animal Photo by Lisa Rodgers Control Services; it was designed to be an animal clinic. He added, We The Plight of Boone County Animal Services By Lisa Rodgers Contemplate going to work in a facility that was built in the 1950 s as a veterinary clinic and has been bandaged and repaired to serve as an animal service facility. The cost to Boone County taxpayers for purchasing the building was $60,000 in Consider that from the facility was rodent infested and employees were required to perform their duties while the vermin were being eradicated. The cost to clean and remove the rodents was $1,878. Consider too a chain linked fence surrounding dog kennels offers no quarantine for diseased animals and has no facilities for abandoned cats or other nontypical stray animals. And consider too that animal control officers have found a dog s blood all over the floor that had torn its toe off from trying to free itself from the chain linked fencing. Finding the mess meant that officers had to clean the kennel and then take the animal for medical attention. Animal control officers might ask, should the owner be told? Does the owner of the animal care or have then abandoned the animal and how can this be managed when the facility is at capacity? These are a few of the challenges and circumstances faced by animal control officers every day. In an article titled Convenience Euthanasia? Just Say No that was written by Alice Villalobos, DVM and was published in Veterinary Practice News. Dr. Villalobos wrote, Since the horrible foreclosure fever has added to the meltdown of the U.S. economy, more animals are being dumped in the nation s shelters and veterinary hospitals Dr. Villalobos added, Is convenience euthanasia on the rise? Society is deluged with the mentality of obsolescence for cars, computers, electronic gadgets, throwaway plastic and Styrofoam containers Often we are actually staring at economic euthanasia, especially for pets that do not have health insurance. Many families are in economic crisis and it is hard to distinguish whether they want their pet euthanatized for convenience or for economic purposes What price do we pay for convenience euthanasia? The highest rate of suicide in our profession in America involves workers who euthanize dogs and cats in animal shelters and pounds on a daily basis. From a technical perspective, the Boone County facility is not out of compliance with the law according to the Illinois Department of Agriculture inspectors. But it was noted in June 2013 that there are cracks in the concrete kennel floor. The estimated cost to renovate the kennels with new concrete floors, drainage, cinder block walls between kennels, and new kennels is estimated to cost $50,000. In addition, the building should be renovated with new exam room floors, counters and sinks. The linoleum flooring and walls are out of the 1950s and need to be replaced. Yet, more than $59,668 has already been spent on repairs since 2004 that included but were not limited to creating handicapped accessible restroom, and upgrades. This figure does not include generous donations that were made or a $15,000 energy grant that was received in Total expenditures for the facility from 2003 to the present, including the purchase and repairs totals $119,668. The funds for this work was paid from taxpayer dollars in the Boone County general fund and collected fees. The Boone County Animal Services and Adoption Center (BCAS) staff and the Boone County administration contributed to this account of the facility located at 1230 South Appleton Road, Belvidere. Under Illinois Animal Control Act at 510 ILCS 5/, counties are required to provide an animal services facility. BCAS is managed by Boone County and is overseen by the county health and human services committee (HHS) of the Boone County Board. The current budget for BCAS is $189,775 and 85 percent of the budget comes from rabies tag fees. The remaining funding is from fees, citations, court fines, and adoptions. The department is not funded by the county general fund unless expenditures exceed the revenue and that has not happened in more than 5 years. At recent HHS meeting, discussion arose asking whether to continue to repair the current BCAS or if the county could afford to build a new facility. No contributions come to the facility from other county taxing bodies. Yet, services are provided for them by BCAS. Financial discussions have considered three options: to continue to make repairs and remain at the current location, to build a new facility at the current location or to relocate to the Boone County highway department site on Illinois Route #76 and build a new facility. The current estimated cost to build a new facility could total over $600,000. Boone County representative Marion Thornberry (District #3) serves on the HHS committee that oversees BCAS. Mr. Thornberry was elected to the Boone County Board in 2012 and he said, From dayone every committee meeting has had discussions about repairs just received another estimate for $10, for additional repairs and to repair the cracked cement floor within the one side of kennels is estimated between $40,000 and $50,000. So this alone is equal to what the county spent to buy the building and acreage in Despite passing inspection, it is my opinion that Boone County is currently in violation with the State of Illinois with the current condition of the cement floor. It was noted in the inspection. They have yet to fine us, but they could invoke this at any time during a future inspection. They have told us to make repairs and in the event they do fine Boone County, the fines would be retroactive to the date the county was first told. It could be thousands of dollars in fines.

Belvidere Park, Baltic Mill, 7 pm Sunday, July 28: Cody Clauson Trio Sponsored by The Evangelical Covenant Church of Belvidere Mr. Thornberry concluded, A lot of these repairs have been done by the employees themselves and other volunteers free of charge. If the employees alone had complained to their union, the county would have had to pay the employees for their labor done on their own time putting this well over $200, If there were to be a fire, the employees could potentially become trapped. In my opinion the sad part is that with all this money being spent on this facility, it is still a death trap.

As many career farmers face retirement without children who are willing to take up the family plow, many farms are swallowed up by industrial agriculture or development. In fact, US farmers over 65 outnumber those under 35 by 3-to-1. Yet, even as family farms diminish, there is a growing interest from both young college grads & mid-life career changers to take up the art of farming. However, these folks are approaching it differently than the conventional farm models. Many, concerned with the health of their customers and the planet, are turning to starting up small, organic farms. These farms are helping to meet the growing consumer demand for local, sustainably grown food. Starting farming is no easy task, however. That is why Angelic Organics Learning Center coordinates the Stateline Farm Beginnings program to help beginning farmers plan and launch sustainable farm businesses. The application period for the year-long program starting in October opened July 1st, For people who are not ready to make the year-long investment, Angelic Organics Learning Center also offers a one-day Farm Dreams: Assessing Risks & Resources to Start a Small Farm or Market Garden class to help people determine if they want to pursue farmer training. Stateline Farm Beginnings is a training program that helps new farmers plan for success. Offered by Angelic Organics Learning Center and the Collaborative Regional Alliance for Farmer Training (CRAFT), a coalition of organic, Biodynamic, and other sustainable farmers in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin, the program helps people evaluate and plan their farm enterprise. Farm Beginnings participants learn directly from a variety of successful, innovative farmers; attend practical high quality classroom sessions, field day workshops and exchanges; and engage in internship, employment, or mentorship with an experienced farmer.

Purchase your tickets by calling or For the first time in years, there soon will be major construction underway in downtown Genoa. Genoa Main Street, Inc., the City, the Genoa Public Library and private businesses are all focused on changes that promise to keep downtown in the spotlight for some time to come. The new construction comes courtesy of the Genoa Public Library which purchased the lot next to their current building at 232 W. Main Street. They have demolished the structure on the site and will break ground in the spring for a major building expansion. The new wing will allow us to meet the growing needs of Genoa residents while remaining downtown, says Jen Barton, library director. In addition to housing more books and resources for library users, the library is an important part of the downtown business community, generating foot traffic and space for activities and meetings. Genoa Main Street, Inc. plans to open another business incubator, Genoa Springboard 3. It will be located on Main Street in downtown Genoa. While still in the planning stage, interested entrepreneurs are encouraged to contact the organization to begin the application process. Start-up businesses, home-based businesses ready to move into their own space and out-of-town businesses looking for a Genoa location are eligible to apply. Springboard tenants benefit from a quality location at an affordable price, shared costs and professional guidance from a task force of experts in a variety of fields. The Genoa Springboard program is a great economic development tool for downtown, says Mim Evans, Genoa Main Street executive director. Each of our incubators gives new businesses a better chance of success, brings an underutilized building back to life, and attracts additional businesses to Genoa that fill other available space. Some new businesses are not waiting for the incubator to open. A pharmacy returns to downtown later this summer. Parag Manier is renovating the space at 228 W. Main Street to house Genoa Pharmacy. Ted and MaryAnn Heck have opened The Corner Thrift Store at 101 W. Main Street. The shop carries affordable antiques as well as Ted s handcrafted furniture. The City of Genoa is also investing in downtown, says Linda Underwood, Genoa Main Street president. They have installed new benches, planters, lightpole flower baskets and street trees. The teamwork of Genoa Main Street, Genoa Garden Club and the City has downtown looking great! Genoa Main Street was started by concerned downtown business owners and the Chamber of Commerce in 1996, continues Underwood. Since then we have worked hard to make downtown a great place to live, work, or visit. We are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization funded by donations from the business community and local residents. Thanks to their strong support, we are looking forward to continuing to promote downtown as the economic and social center of the community.
