GRANVILLE — The weather is changing, and despite efforts to locate the multiple causes of the flooding experienced during the last period of heavy rain, residents have been warned to prepare for the next bout of wet weather. “We’re getting more water in a faster time, and homeowners should prepare by protecting their property,” said village
engineer Mike Richetta of Chamlin & Associates during the Granville Village Board meeting on June 6. Richetta has been evaluating the flooding this spring, citing problems with both surface water run-off and storm drains. One problem identified was a fence line which had filled with corn debris from recent field work. When the water naturally flowed toward the fence, it was

• FLOODING Continued from Page 1 stopped and began to pool. “From there it backed up and took the path of least resistance,” Richetta said. While the current storm drain system is lacking in some areas and could potentially be restricted in others, storms have simply begun to drop more water on the village than it could handle in the best of situations. The board authorized up to $5,000 to be spent on jetting and televising the drain pipe on North Elm. The first area to be cleaned and examined is the 2,200 feet north of Silverspoon Avenue. Both Richetta and the village will be continuing their work to evaluate, repair and improve how the village handles storm water.

Spring Valley Lions Club wants to be a part of county Princeton Lions and Lions District 1BK invites man killed in all Putnam County communities to make a difference hit-and-run Oglesby man arrested BY DAVE COOK news@putnamcountyrecord.com
PERU — Police say a 39-year-old Oglesby driver hit and killed a Spring Valley man before fleeing June 4. Luke T. Dobrich was in LaSalle County Jail on $100,000 bond Friday after he was charged with leaving the scene of a fatal accident, which carries 1 to 3 years in prison, in the death of Wyatt Kenneth Lyle Wyatt, 22. Wyatt’s body was found at 9:28 Wyatt p.m. June 4 on 70 N. 2551st Road, Wyatt just east of August Hills Winery and about a mile south of Peru. LaSalle County Sheriff’s deputies and Oglesby Ambulance arrived on the scene and found the man unresponsive. Investigators from the sheriff’s department and the Illinois State Police crime scene and accident reconstruction teams were on the Luke T. scene throughout the night. Dobrich Wyatt was born Feb. 26, 1995, in Sterling to Jolyn Wyatt, now of Browntown, Wis., and Tom Wyatt of Hennepin. He graduated from Princeton High School in 2013, and worked at various jobs, including Sislers in Ohio. Anyone with information regarding this incident should call the LaSalle County Sheriff’s Department at 815-433-2161.
The Lions organization would like to establish a Lions Club in Granville and Putnam County for the purpose of helping those communities grow and to provide useful services that are not readily available through social service organizations. The Princeton Lions Club has been involved in the city of Princeton and Bureau County area for 92 years this October. The Lions Club was established in 1917 in Chicago by local businessmen who desired to give back to those communities and customers who supported them. The Lions Club received a new direction in 1925 when Helen Keller asked the Lions to be Knights of the Blind and Deaf. This new direction gave the organization a worldwide purpose that has morphed into a health care facilitation program.
Twice a year the Illinois Lions work to raise money for three Lions Blind and Deaf Camps in Illinois. There are two camps for blind and hearing impaired children and one camp for adults. The children, many who have been recently afflicted, get to experience a summer camp environment that teaches beginning sign language and other communication skills. The Lions Clubs in 210 countries all over the world are active in providing care locally and internationally. The polio vaccine was distributed with the aid of Lions Clubs, and at this time, there are only three countries in the world that still have polio afflictions. The measles epidemic is rapidly diminishing with the intervention of Lions Clubs that provide the means to deliver vaccines to children
and adults. A few years ago 450 children died a day due to measles and related Illnesses, and today that number has dropped to 330 and continues to go down. The Lions Clubs have been and continue to be a valuable resource for the world and our local communities. In 1987, the Lions reopened their ranks to women, and this year will be electing the first woman as its international president. We serve with compassion and diligence, and we are grateful for all the support we are continually blessed with. If you would like more information on what the Lions Club can do for Putnam County please check out the information tent at the Aug. 4 car show in Granville. Charter requirements for a new club are a minimum of 20 members.

The Lions Club was constructed from several social clubs who agreed to a few basic principles. One such principle was that no member should expect personal or financial gain from membership. This and the other basic ideas have been strictly adhered to by Lions Clubs nationwide. The Lions Club is not a social entity but is the world’s largest service organization. The Lions Club has established a service of raising money that helps those who are overlooked by the state and federal assistance programs for eyeglasses and hearing aids. The monies raised locally are given to those who cannot afford vision testing or hearing testing as well as eyeglasses and hearing aids due to the limitations of federal and state guidelines.

ISP announces results of Occupant Restraint Enforcement Patrols
ISP announces results of Special Traffic Enforcement Patrols
LASALLE — Illinois State Police (ISP) District 17 announced the results of Occupant Restraint Enforcement Patrols (OREP) held in LaSalle County during May. These OREPs provided extra patrol coverage for the ISP, so officers could focus on saving lives by making sure all vehicle occupants were buckled-up. During the detail, troopers issued 44 safety-belt citations and one child restraint citation. There were a total of 56 citations issued and 15 warnings given during the OREP. Most motorists know safety belts save lives, but some ignore their safety and that of their families by neglecting to use safety belts and child restraint devices. These patrols reinforce the occupant protection message by focusing on those who ignore the law. Lives can be saved if people simply buckle up. This project is funded through the Illinois Department of Transportation.
LASALLE — Illinois State Police (ISP) District 17 announced the results of Special Traffic Enforcement Patrols (sTEP) held in LaSalle County during May.

During the detail, there were 16 citations for occupant restraint violations, zero arrests made for DUI or other drug/alcohol-related violations, 110 citations and 29 warnings given for speeding, and 11 citations and one warning for distracted driving. There were a total of 148 citations and 64 warnings given during the sTEP. Driving the posted speed limit, sober, not distracted and buckled up will save your life and the lives of many others. This project is funded through the Illinois Department of Transportation.

PERSPECTIVE
Wednesday, June 14, 2017 • Putnam County Record / putnamcountyrecord.com
WHAT WE THINK
Assault on reporter assaults right to know
W
hen dog bites man, that’s not news. When man bites dog, that’s
news. The old saying has a new corollary after recent events in Montana. When a reporter asks a newsmaker tough questions, that’s not news. It happens all the time. However, when the newsmaker, tired of those questions, gets physically tough with a reporter, that’s news. And it’s also a disturbing trend we believe must be stopped – now. We speak of an incident May 24 where a reporter for The Guardian newspaper, Ben Jacobs, went into an office in Bozeman, Montana, where the Republican candidate for Montana’s only House seat, Greg Gianforte, was giving an interview to a Fox News reporter. Jacobs began to ask Gianforte whether he supported the American Health Care Act, which perturbed Gianforte so much he began to struggle with Jacobs over Jacobs’ phone, which was being used as an audio recorder.
As they interview newsmakers, reporters represent the public. When a newsmaker assaults a reporter, he is really assaulting the public’s right to know. Such behavior is intolerable and must not be repeated. Gianforte can be heard on a recording saying he was “sick and tired of you guys” and to “get the hell out of here.” Both then apparently fell to the floor. Jacobs said he was “bodyslammed” by Gianforte, and that his glasses were broken. Gianforte, who was charged with assault, went on to win a special election the next day over his Democratic opponent. We only hope the election results aren’t an endorsement of Gianforte’s outrageous actions against a journalist. It’s not only the assault on the Guardian’s reporter that concerns us. It’s the arrest of a journalist for asking a question of Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price in West Virginia several weeks ago. It’s the implication that journalists don’t have a right to ask certain questions in certain settings.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Moving forward, not backward To the Editor, 9-1-1 is the backbone of public safety, and Illinois’ back is breaking. On behalf of the sheriffs, the chiefs of police, and all the men and women of public safety in Illinois, we encourage Gov. Rauner to approve SB 1839. Without that approval, the system will be unfunded at the close of business June 30, 2017. It’s unthinkable that someone in Illinois might dial 9-1-1 after June 30,and nobody would be there to take the emergency call. Legislation passed in 2015 requires the consolidation of 9-1-1 systems, and upgrading technology to help our telecommunicators deliver the most professional and expedited service to our communities. Our emergency dispatch centers are required to implement location services, receive text messages and automatic crash alerts within the next three years. None of this comes without a cost, and that cost spread across all users is the fairest and most efficient model for delivery. The goal is to develop a fully-functional 9-1-1 system that meets the demands of ever-changing telecommunications technology in a digital world, while being accessible anytime, anywhere, from any device in Illinois. Providing 9-1-1 services for all members of our community simply cannot be done by keeping old, costly and failing technology in place.
Write to us Letters to the Editor should not be more than 500 words in length. Only one person can sign a Letter to the Editor. The author of the letter must include his/her name, hometown and telephone number. The author’s name and hometown will be published, however, the telephone number is only used to verify the authenticity of the author’s signature and will not be published. Unsigned letters are never read or published. No letter will be published until the Putnam County Record contacts the author of the letter to verify the signature. The Putnam County Record reserves the right to edit or refuse any Letter to the Editor. We firmly believe the proposed revenue provided in SB 1839 for 9-1-1 allows for much-needed upgrades to outdated, flawed and ineffective technology – including landline phone services using copper wire – in 9-1-1 centers statewide. The surcharge increase also addresses the rising cost of salaries, technology and resources required to effectively deliver 9-1-1 services across Illinois. The time is now for Illinois to move forward, not backward, in protecting the citizens we all serve.
Sheriff Doug Maier, President Illinois Sheriffs’ Association
It’s the tacit approval of “journalists as enemies of the people” by voters and politicians. The institution of journalism is, indeed, being threatened. And much of the public, instead of considering what this means to the future of democracy, is telling the media to “suck it up, buttercup.” As if it’s more important to be “tough” and take a punch than to stand up for the public’s right to know. It’s alarming. The American Society of News Editors issued a statement after Gianforte’s assault on the reporter, the arrest of the reporter in West Virginia, and the forcible detention of a CQ Roll Call reporter by Federal Communications Commission security officers as he tried to ask questions of an FCC commissioner. “The fact that Mr. Jacobs was attacked by the very politician he was trying to interview
marks a uniquely disturbing moment in the treatment of journalists,” the ASNE stated. ASNE President Mizell Stewart III had these comments: “Words and actions have consequences. An assault on a journalist asking a simple question is inexcusable, but not surprising, given the continued attacks on the press from those in power. Far from ‘enemies of the American people,’ we stand strong as a watchdog for citizens and communities.” The ASNE’s statement concludes: “As the leaders of America’s newsrooms, ASNE is committed to protecting the rights of journalists to be free from physical harm, from threats and harassment, from arrest, and from any and all violations of the First Amendment. “That is why today we go beyond simply condemning the actions of Greg Gianforte and
the others who threaten press freedom and call on our elected officials, as well as the citizens who elect them, to forcefully speak out against such incursions.” Reporters often find themselves in adversarial relationships with political candidates and elected officials. Reporters ask questions that, sometimes, candidates and elected officials don’t want to answer. But those reporters represent more than news organizations. They represent the public. They represent you. They ask questions that you would ask, and then share the answers through news stories, so you can be informed of the truth. Reporters have an obligation to be civil. Those they question should be civil in return. We repeat the sentiments of the ASNE: the attack on Mr. Jacobs “marks a uniquely disturbing moment in the treatment of journalists.” It is a moment that must not be repeated.
Putnam County Record
Stop and smell the roses I think “Stop and smell the roses.” is one of those little sayings of life which has a lot of merit, but is all too often ignored. I’ve taken it to heart and regularly practice it. Years ago, while performing a service call at a home with a beautiful rose bush, the saying occurred to me, and for some reason, I followed its instruction. Yes, I had plenty of work to do both there and throughout the day, but the short pause I took to smell one of the blooms while appreciating its beauty was calming and rewarding. Working at people’s homes provided endless trips through yards and gardens. I found slowing up to admire some natural beauty, rather than walking past it in a corporate rush, made me happier, more relaxed and even more productive. In the mornings I began something which I still do today even though I’m in a totally different place and line of work. In the desert, mornings are pleasant until the sun rises high enough in the sky to begin it’s daily ritual of punishing heat. Before that happens though, the desert is full of pleasant and active beauty. After climbing onto my first roof of the day to service air conditioning equipment, I made it a habit to stop and take a minute to appreciate my surroundings. The elevated position put me at the same level as the birds during their morning singing and also provided me with wonderful views of mountains, desert and other wildlife. I’d look in every direction, enjoy the breeze and then close my eyes, take a deep breath and soak it all in.
COMMENTARY Dave Cook No matter what the rest of the day held in store, that short interlude was always pleasurable. I may not be on rooftops anymore, but I still enjoy the morning walk into the office and always stop for a moment to appreciate the day, no matter what the weather is like. There it could be the intoxicating fragrance of citrus blossoms or the raw desert scent of blooms opening after a rain. Here, it’s lilacs that travel on the breeze. In the desert it was the songs of the cactus wren or quail. Here it’s robins and cardinals. Either way, they’re all something worth stopping for and enjoying. Life passes all too quickly and learning to take those short moments to disconnect and both notice and appreciate our world is nothing but beneficial. I recently was fortunate enough to get a sneak peek at a new addition to the Dixon Wildlife Refuge south of Hennepin. I was there to cover a volunteer planting event at an almost 300-acre addition of sand prairie near the wetlands. There was a lot of work to be done, and it was a sunny, warm day. After all the digging, planting and walking through the tall grass at the various planting sites, everyone was justifiably tired. I was there for photos, and hiked along with everyone else through
the tall grass to the various planting sites. Concentrating on getting up-close shots of the work, I now realize I’d given myself a bit of tunnel vision. I then left one group and began the journey to another on the other side of the preserve. I was marching purposefully through the grass and over the hills with my head down, trying to step on as little as possible when I decided it was a good idea to take a breather. I found myself standing alone in the middle of a rolling prairie filled with vibrantly yellow wildflowers and surrounded by scattered trees. I was hit with the full realization of its beauty and could look in every direction and see nothing of the world of man. It was so obvious the area is special and worthy of protection and care. It wasn’t until stopping that I truly appreciated it. And, even though I tried, no photo taken or anything online could provide an equal experience. Whether it’s in your own yard, during an evening walk through the neighborhood, a visit to a park or even someplace you normally wouldn’t consider, stop for a moment, unplug from the demands of the modern world and appreciate something simple. It could be the song of a bird, the antics of squirrels, the sight and scent of a flower, or the just the smell of rain or cut grass. Stop and smell the roses, it’s totally worth it.
