The Review August 12, 2014 STERLING | THOMAS PARK POND
District exploring its options Pond helps prevent floods BY PAM EGGEMEIER
STERLING – The park district is gathering information so it can weigh its options for dealing with the algae-infested Thomas Park pond. The park district budgeted $5,000 this fiscal year to investigate what can and can’t be done. Wendler Engineering, the Dixon-based firm that has worked on several projects at the Westwood Sports Complex, was hired to do some preliminary work with the pond. “Initially, we looked things like depth, what needed to be removed, permitting, and who will be involved in the process,� Park District Executive Director Larry Schuldt said. The pond, built in 1975 over about 1.33 acres, once had 6 feet of water. Runoff from land to the north, mainly farmland, has created a silt deposit problem. That and drought have left the pond with less
than 1 foot of water in most places, spurring the algae growth. Schuldt said the pond’s sediment will be tested soon. A plan will be sent to the Army Corps of Engineers, which automatically triggers EPA notification. What is in the water also factors into what can be done with about 7,400 cubic feet of material that would have to be dealt with, if the pond was dredged. “We would need an area the size of two football fields, if we were to store it onsite,� Schuldt said. The cost estimate for dredging the pond is $150,000, but transporting the material would push the total over the $200,000 mark. That makes sediment testing a key component. “We have to test the material to see if we can leave it in an area of the park,� Schuldt said. “If there are contaminants and we have to take it somewhere else, the cost goes up considerably.� Schuldt said the park district will get numbers on filling in the pond and replacing it with grass, but it’s likely that dredging will be the only feasible option. The pond situation is also the responsibility of the city, because it also is used as a stormwater retention pond. The city and

the pond sometime this fall. “We should be able to make presentations in late fall or early winter to the council and park board,� he said. “If we make the decision to dredge, it would be done next summer sometime.� Concerns about the pond have largely been about aesthetics, Schuldt said. However, a couple of weeks ago, the Whiteside County Health Department responded to a call from a resident concerned about mosquito-borne diseases. After looking at the pond, the health department concluded that the pond scum doesn’t draw the type of mosquito that carries West Nile virus and other such diseases. “This isn’t the type of environment where the culex mosquito typically lays its eggs,� said Gene Johnston, Whiteside County Health Department environmental director. “They are more likely to lay eggs in containers, tires, and empty pools – where there is no current or habitat.� Johnston said the banks of the pond could, however, be a fertile breeding ground for the basic floodwater mosquito. “That variety is a nuisance, but it doesn’t spread disease.�

park district say they won’t know how the cost will be divided until all of the information is available. The pond slows down the stormwater flow, making it less likely that the ultimate destination, Elkhorn Creek, is not flooded during periods of heavy rain. The water can rise in the pond first before draining to an outlet pipe that moves it to a ditch along Lynn Boulevard, before making its way to the creek. Sterling City Manager Scott Shumard said the pond plays a key role in drainage. “The farther west you go, it would make a big difference,� Shumard said. “In front of Kroger, there’s a paved ditch that winds adjacent to several neighborhoods, so it slows down what can go into the creek and potentially flood those areas.� In fact, the Lynn Boulevard bike path plan calls for eventually building three more ponds along that stretch between the park and Sixth Avenue. “The ponds would be for bike path scenery, and could also be used as city retention ponds,� Shumard said. The city would absorb all of the cost for those ponds, he said. Schuldt hopes to have all of the information he needs to make a decision about

AG OLYMPICS A HIT AT CARROLL COUNTY FAIR
NO INJURIES IN ONE-CAR CRASH AT CGH

ABOVE: Marcus McKenna, 12, of Milledgeville tries to keep as much water in the jug as he can while running in a water relay Thursday afternoon at the Carroll County Fair at Schell Park in Milledgeville. The relay was an event in the Ag Olympics, which included such events as the hay barrel roll, watermelon relay, egg catch and sack race. See more photos from the events at saukvalley.com.
A Chevy HHR driven by Frank Norman, 80, of Sterling crashed into the temporary entrance to the Emergency Department at CGH Medical Center on Wednesday night in Sterling. According to a news release from the Sterling Police Department, at 8:24 p.m., Norman drove underneath the overhang, turned right and accelerated into the building. He and his wife, June Norman, were taken to the emergency room, but had not suffered any injuries. The emergency room remained open throughout the incident, and no citations were issued.

STERLING | PROPOSED DOG PARK
Dogged committee back at it Fencing focus for proposed project at Thomas Park BY PAM EGGEMEIER
STERLING – Fundraising efforts for a proposed dog park project at Thomas Park are ramping up after almost being aborted, according to project committee members. The concept of Sterling Bark Park was developed 2 years ago through Facebook conversations between some supporters now on the committee. “We talked about how we needed a dog park here, and we had supporters sign a petition,� committee member Pat McLeod said. The group then approached the Sterling Park District, which also formed a committee to study the idea. It was decided that the underused back portion of the park along Lynn Boulevard – anywhere from one-third to half the park – could provide enough space for dogs to run without their leashes. While the supporters might be long on enthusiasm, they are short on cash. Preliminary plans called for a pond, dock, an agility course, and separate areas for small and large dogs. The cost estimates came in between $150,000 and $200,000 – with about $70,000 of that needed for fencing. The dog park committee has raised about $5,000 to date, much of it from mailers that were sent to those who had signed the petition. The park district would provide the land if Thomas Park was the chosen site, but that would be where its financial contribution would likely end. “The park district is not involved financially,� executive director Larry Schuldt said. “The board supports the project and this location as one to consider, but there is no money coming from our end.� Fundraising momentum hit a wall last year, but the committee said they have refocused their efforts on bringing in enough money to put up the fencing. The small dog and large dog areas would be available, while the other phases of the project could be added when more funds arrive. “We haven’t given up on the other aspects of the park; we would just do it in phases,� McLeod said.
Despite the fundraising challenges, the committee wants the dog park to be free to the community. “We wouldn’t have a fee at the beginning, at least,� McLeod said. “We hope we can police it ourselves, but we could discover we have to charge later.� McLeod thinks the fencing can be done for $50,000 if they can get volunteers to help put it up. Schuldt said the materials alone would cost about $40,000, and that is a 2-year-old estimate. “There is quite a bit of square footage here; the fencing is for basically three parks in one – small dog, large dog, and agility area,� Schuldt said. “You need perimeter and internal fencing, which is why is costs so much.� A fundraiser, with activities for adults, kids and dogs has been planned for Sept. 13 at Cochran’s Pub, 13464 Galt Road in Sterling. There will be events for adults, kids and dogs. After the September event, the committee also plans to take its fundraising to the next level. “We’re doing a bigger campaign that will focus on corporations and small businesses,� McLeod said. “Things came to a stop for awhile, but we have some new people with new ideas on the committee, and we are reinvigorated.� New committee member Brigitte Willett said the recent Sterling Main Street Dog Days festival helped to solidify the troops. “Some of the ladies approached me at Dog Days, saying they wanted to really get this going again,� she said. “This was almost dead at one point, but we’re committed to getting this first phase finished as soon as possible.� Schuldt said the dog park particulars will not come before the park board until the funds are available for the fencing. He said the board supports the project and believes Thomas Park is a location to consider. “What the board does also depends on what we hear from the community,� Schuldt said. “We’ve had some concerns about noise, fear of dogs running loose, and some feedback about aesthetics.� Schuldt believes the site is as good as any other space that could be found locally. “It’s somewhat centralized, and it’s a good use of space that is underutilized,� he said. “I told the committee we’ll hang in there with it as long as they will.� The closest dog parks are in Dixon, Freeport and Clinton, Iowa.

Flexible recipes? About time BY DANIEL NEMAN MCT News Service
E
very now and then, you might want to make a meal that, as Tina Turner said, is nice ‌ and easy.
S
o I decided to take three popular dishes and make each one in an easy way and then in a more complicated way that requires more time and ingredients. Same dish. Two different recipes.
Easy ‘Goulash’ Yield: 4 servings 1 pound lean ground beef 14 ounces (half of a 28-ounce bag) frozen potatoes O’Brien 2 cups spaghetti sauce from a jar 1 (14½-ounce) can diced tomatoes with basil, garlic and oregano, undrained ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese In a large skillet or pot, cook ground beef over medium-high heat until brown. Drain off fat. Add potatoes, sauce and undrained tomatoes. Cover and cook at a low simmer until potatoes are tender, 1 to 1.25 hours, or place the meat, sauce and undrained tomatoes in a slow cooker and cook at low heat for 6 to 8 hours or high heat for 3 to 4 hours. Sprinkle with cheddar cheese and serve. Per serving: 480 calories; 20 g fat; 9 g saturated fat; 115 mg cholesterol; 40 g protein; 33 g carbohydrate; 10 g sugar; 5 g fiber; 1,005 g sodium; 185 mg calcium – Recipe adapted from momswhothink.com
‘Bobby’s Goulash’ Yield: 12 servings 2 pounds lean ground beef 2 large yellow onions, chopped 3 cloves garlic, minced 3 cups water 2 (15-ounce) cans tomato sauce 2 (15-ounce) cans diced tomatoes 1 teaspoon dried basil 1 teaspoon dried marjoram 1 teaspoon dried oregano 1 teaspoon dried rosemary 1 teaspoon dried sage 1 teaspoon dried thyme 2 bay leaves 3 tablespoons soy sauce 1½ teaspoons salt ½ teaspoon black pep-
per ½ teaspoon garlic powder 2 cups elbow macaroni, uncooked In a large Dutch oven, saute the ground beef over medium-high heat until no pink remains. Break up the meat while sauteing. Add onions and garlic and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the 3 cups water, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, basil, marjoram, oregano, rosemary, sage, thyme, bay leaves, soy sauce, salt and pepper. Stir well. Cover and simmer 15 to 20 minutes. Add the macaroni, stir well, cover and simmer 25 minutes. Remove from heat, remove the bay leaves and allow the mixture to rest about 30 minutes more before serving (this resting will make the spices pronounced). Leftovers are even better the next day.

Easy Chicken Parmesan Yield: 6 servings 1 (23-ounce) jar pasta sauce 6 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, divided 6 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves 1 1/2 cups grated mozzarella cheese Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Pour sauce into a 13-by9-inch baking dish. Stir in 4 tablespoons of the Parmesan cheese. Place the chicken breasts in the sauce, turning them to coat well. Cover with foil and bake 30 minutes. Remove from oven, remove foil, and sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese and the grated mozzarella over the chicken breasts. Return to oven and bake uncovered 5 minutes more, until chicken is cooked through and cheese is melted. If desired, serve with pasta (don’t use salt to cook the pasta).

Serious Chicken Parmesan Yield: 6 servings 1 (28-ounce) can whole peeled plum tomatoes, preferably from San Marzano 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 tablespoons minced onions 1 garlic clove, minced 3/4 pound fresh mozzarella 4 large eggs 1/2 cup freshly grated Pecorino Romano cheese, divided 2 teaspoons minced parsley Salt Pepper 6 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves 1 cup all-purpose flour 2 cups bread crumbs 1 cup vegetable oil Remove tomatoes from the can, reserving their juice. Use your hands to crush the tomatoes; then remove and discard the hard core from the stem end. Set aside. Put oil in a large saucepan over medium-low heat, add onion and saute until translucent and just beginning to brown, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add tomatoes, their juice and salt to taste (you may not need salt if the canned tomatoes are salty enough). Bring to a boil, then immediately reduce heat to a very low simmer. Cook for 45 minutes until flavors have combined and sauce is slightly thickened. Add pepper to taste and set aside. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees. Slice mozzarella into 1/4-inch thick slices, and set aside. In a small bowl, whisk together eggs, 1/4 cup of the Pecorino Romano cheese, the parsley, and salt and pepper to taste. Carefully dredge each chicken breast in flour, then in the seasoned egg batter. Allow excess batter to drip off, then dredge chicken in bread crumbs. Set aside, taking care not to let the breasts
overlap. Heat vegetable oil in a large saute pan over medium high heat. When oil is very hot but not smoking, carefully place breasts in pan (you may have to do this in batches). Brown each side, turning once, seasoning with salt and pepper when you turn. Drain on paper towels. Spread tomato sauce across bottom of a 9-by13-inch baking pan. Place breasts on top of the sauce and bake 20 minutes. Remove from oven, but leave the oven on. Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup Pecorino Romano over the breasts, and top each breast with 2 slices of the mozzarella cheese. Return to oven and bake 5 minutes or until mozzarella is melted and just bubbling and beginning to brown. You may need to run the pan under the broiler for a minute or 2 to bubble and brown the cheese. Serve with a spoonful of sauce on top of each breast and more sauce around the sides.

Easy Sauteed Mushrooms Yield: 4 servings 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter 1/4 cup sherry 1/2 package onion soup mix 1/2 pound sliced mushrooms Melt butter in skillet over medium heat. Stir in sherry.

Mushroom Saute Yield: 4 servings 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 tablespoon unsalted butter 1 pound mixed fresh mushrooms, washed and trimmed and sliced Âź inch thick. 2 cloves garlic, minced 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt 2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley Black pepper 2 to 3 tablespoons heavy cream, broth or lemon juice, optional Fresh herbs, such as
thyme, sage and/or chives, optional Heat the oil and butter in a 12-inch saute pan or skillet over medium heat until the butter foams. Add mushrooms and garlic, sprinkle with salt and stir with a wooden spoon until the mushrooms start to release their moisture and begin to shrink, about 2 to 4 minutes. Increase heat to medium high; you will hear a steady sizzle. Stir occasionally. In about 5 minutes, when the liquid has evaporated and the mushrooms start to brown, give an occasional stir with the spoon, about once a minute, to allow the mushrooms to brown, cooking them for another 2 to 4 minutes. Resist the inclination to stir too often. Remove from the heat and toss the mushrooms with the parsley and pepper to taste, adding more salt if needed. If desired, deglaze pan with cream, broth or lemon juice, and add to the mushroom mixture. Add a sprinkling of fresh herbs, if you like.

More than half of well users still not hooked up
Invisible disabilities Some DeKalb County workers struggle with unseen disorders BY ANDREA AZZO
DeKALB – Kristin Maldonado finds comfort in knowing her manager at Michaels in DeKalb struggles with the same autoimmune disorder as she does. Maldonado, a DeKalb resident, was diagnosed with Hashimoto thyroiditis when she was 12 years old. Now 29, the disorder that attacks her thyroid has affected her energy levels. She regularly has to monitor her thyroidstimulating hormone levels with blood tests, is prone to depression and has plantar fasciitis, an inflammation of the foot. Her store manager at Michaels, Shannon Carpenter, also has Hashimoto thyroiditis. “She completely understands,” Maldonado said. “Some other people don’t understand and think it’s normal to be tired, but when you’re tired all the time and can’t do normal activities because your feet hurt, all I want to do is sleep all day.” Not every employee has the same luxury of confiding in their bosses about their disabilities. An article recently published in the journal, Industrial and Organizational Psychology: Perspectives on Science and Practice, found many employees struggle with disclosing their invisible disabilities, which are conditions that are not immediately noticeable. The article states that disclosing an invisible disability can affect the employee’s chances of getting a promotion, as well as their social relationships and the overall health of the employee. Northern Illinois University psychology pro-
Wescott says penalties will be strictly enforced BY PAM EGGEMEIER
ROCK FALLS – More than half of the houses given a mandate to switch from well water to city service by Oct. 1 have not yet hooked up. In 2011, the city identified 248 houses that need to make the switch, saying the decision was the result of the cleanup of the Reliant Fastener and Parrish-Alford sites. One of the requirements of the Environmental Protection Agency’s remediation process was that private wells within 1,500 feet of those properties could no longer be used. During a meeting Thursday of the city’s Public Works Committee, Mayor Bill Wescott said that more than 140 houses still haven’t connected to city water. The mayor revisited the city ordinance that was amended earlier this year to prohibit the use of well water within the city limits. The city has put all of the stop boxes in, and residents must have the city put the meters in place. The deadline had been set for April 5, but the harsh winter gave residents some extra time. The City Council on April 1 voted to extend the deadline to Oct. 1, to give the water department

Clinton Rosette Middle School eighth-grade language arts teacher Treveda Redmond unpacks boxes Wednesday in her classroom in DeKalb. Redmond did not return to teaching last year after Thanksgiving break until the last few weeks of school because of her breast cancer diagnosis and surgeries. She’s been teaching for 14 years. fessor Alecia Santuzzi was the lead author in the article. Santuzzi worked with Purdue University psychology professor Deborah Rupp to raise attention to the issue and to point out how current legislation might not be sensitive to those with invisible disabilities. “Research suggests concealing stigmatizing information does weigh down on cognitive resources,” Santuzzi said. “Mental energy that one could be devoting to being a better worker is somewhat distracted or challenged because part of their attention is on managing that information and making sure there aren’t any leaks.” While the article does not call on specific legislation to change, it does cite the challenges of some already in place. An amendment of the Americans With Disabilities Act requires employ-
ers to provide accommodations for the disabled, which could force those suffering from invisible disabilities to talk to their employer about how their disability affects work performance. Another law enacted in March requires federal contractors to ask potential employees whether they have a disability before they are even hired for the job. Under this law, job seekers are asked to voluntarily fill out a form asking whether or not they have a disability. They can choose, “I do not wish to answer” in the form, said Nancy Hammer, senior government affairs policy counsel for the Society For Human Resource Management. “HR as a profession is very focused and aware of non-discrimination laws,” Hammer said. “On the other hand, we understand why an individual who has a disabil-
ity, especially if you can’t see it, may not want to disclose that unless they need to for some reason.” Disclosure was difficult for Treveda Redmond, an eighth grade language arts teacher at Clinton Rosette Middle School in DeKalb. Redmond missed the majority of the 2013-2014 school year after being diagnosed with early stage breast cancer. She made the aggressive decision of having double mastectomy in December, despite having no family history of breast cancer. She received breast implants June 17 to bring back her confidence. Redmond said it was hard to tell school principal Tim Vincent about her struggles because he is a man. It took her about two weeks to tell Vincent of her diagnosis. “He was as supportive as he could be,” she said.
more time to get the service boxes in place. Letters were sent to the affected Bill households Wescott the day after the extension was granted. “We were cut short on time with the winter we had,” Water Superintendent Ted Padilla said at the time. “There were years where we could have worked into January or started in March, but Mother Nature didn’t cooperate this year.” Wescott said the ordinance will be strictly policed. As a Class A violation, the penalty can be between $100 and $750. “I think people have had plenty of time to comply,” Wescott said. “It has been 3 years and 6 months since this started, and we were nice enough to extend it to Oct. 1.” Citations can be issued by the police or the building department. Just like other adjudicated ordinance citations, if the situation is rectified within 30 days, the ticket will be thrown out. However, if a resident is noncompliant and is ticketed again, they run the risk of being fined retroactively back to the first offense. “Each day can be cited as a separate violation of the ordinance in that instance and the judge can fine back to the first day,” Wescott said.
