CLC farm market runs through mid-October From rainbow chard to summer squash to zucchini and much more, the College of Lake County’s eclectic farm market is back at the Grayslake campus Thursdays from 3-5:30 p.m. Offering organically managed, farm-grown produce, herbs, locally produced honey, teas and a variety of cut flowers, the farm market runs every week on the front lawn of the Horticulture Building, located off Lancer Lane between Brae Loch Road (South) and Washington Road (North). Matt DeRose, local food coordinator at the College of Lake County, planted the garden in early June in the campus greenhouse and fields, a month late due to the COVID-19 shutdown. The garden is maintained with the additional help of new intern and CLC Horticulture student Amma Maya, along with facilities engineer and “superstar” beekeeper Eddie Popelka. “The big difference this year is the void left by not having students and volunteers in the garden,” said DeRose. “We have a lot of people pass through and do some good, tough work for us over the year. The beginner’s mind they bring along grants the garden its vigor. We are missing that. But we are keeping the seat warm for when that person stuck sitting in their house right now can register for a class, come over here and stick a seed in the soil for the first time.” With the cancellation in May of CLC’s annual and very popular plant sale (also due to the restrictions of COVID-19), CLC donated thousands of vegetable, herb and flower transplants to local Lake County non-profits, including the Round Lake Area Garden Club, Beacon Place, the Roberti Community House and the Fremont Township Community Garden. These plants were managed during the shutdown by greenhouse staff Deb Figura and Andy Leuder, along with horticultural department chair, Rory Klick. For safety, masks are required for entry, with social distance being maintained via a two-person limit, six feet apart, under the market tent. Proceeds from the market support student internships in the College’s horticultural career programs, including sustainable agriculture. The CLC farm market runs through mid-October. Overflow produce is donated to local food pantries. Cash, checks and credit cards are accepted.

Emergency rules create fines for establishments flouting mask, capacity guidelines ‘Education,’ warnings, orders to reduce occupancy would precede fines
By Jerry Nowicki CAPITOL NEWS ILLINOIS
Gov. JB Pritzker has announced his administration would be filing a new emergency rule allowing health authorities to levy fines on establishments that flout masking and capacity guidelines. The rules “would provide multiple opportunities for compliance” regarding face mask requirements and capacity limits, including attempts to “educate” and warn the establishment before an order is issued for some patrons to leave the premises. If the establishment is still not in compliance after those steps are taken, health officials can levy a Class A Misdemeanor charge and a fine ranging from $75 to $2,500. Pritzker said all establishments in Illinois are beholden to capacity limits of 50 people or 50 percent of a building’s maximum occupancy, and schools must limit the number of people in one space to 50 or less. Both the Illinois Department of Public Health and local authorities will have power under the rule to “seek cooperation with businesses in COVID-19 related investigations,” according to the governor. The fines would apply to establishments—not individuals—and the governor’s office noted the rules focus on businesses, schools and
child care establishments. “These rules are a commonsense way to enforce mask requirements without jumping immediately to the extremely tough consequences that exist on the books today,” Pritzker said at a news conference announcing the rules in Chicago. “They’ll give local authorities a step-by-step guide on how to enforce masks and distancing, and an opportunity to help businesses act in good faith.” He said the existing law allows for license revocations, which would be more costly than the fines allowed in the new emergency rules. Because they are emergency rules, they can only be in place for up to 150 days. The General Assembly’s bipartisan Joint Committee on Administrative Rules, or JCAR, has the authority to review emergency rules, and would have to approve the rules if they are to be adopted long-term. Pritzker’s push for the new rules follows a similar attempt which failed before JCAR in May as the committee, after hours-long negotiations behind the scenes, appeared uninterested in imposing a fine structure for businesses that were already hurting due to the COVID-19 pandemic. At that time, a lead Democrat from the committee said he planned to bring the proposed rule changes before
the full General Assembly after the Pritzker administration withdrew the emergency rules amid the opposition. General Assembly action would have bypassed JCAR, enshrining the rules into law, but such a bill never came up for a vote in the abbreviated May session. Pritzker suggested it will be different this time around, as the new version of the rule allows for education and warnings before the fine “What’s different about this rule is it focuses on warnings, and then a fine,” Pritzker said. “What’s available to us in the (existing) law is only essentially a misdemeanor immediately as a solution to the problem. And that was something that JCAR did not want us to move forward with, and so we made alterations.” Pritzker made the announcement with various teachers’ union representatives, a restaurant trade group president and elected officials at the James R. Thompson Center in Chicago. Sam Toia, president of the Illinois Restaurant Association, said the measure is necessary so that the state does not enter another stay-athome order or mandate other closures in the hospitality industry. “If we want to stay on a steady path and keep our progress with reopening, it’s up to every individual to work collectively towards
a common goal,” Toia said. “It’s simple. If you choose not to adhere to public safety guidelines or house rules at businesses, your favorite restaurants, shops, bars, salons, hardware stores and more will pay the price.” The governor also said the order will be important to enforcing mask requirements at schools. “There are parents that are encouraging school boards in some areas of the state to open without masks. That is against the rules in the state of Illinois, and we now are giving the authority to county public health boards and county public health administrators to work with schools on improving those mitigations that they should have in place,” he said. Kathi Griffin, president of the Illinois Education Association teachers’ union, said in order for in-person learning to work, each district must develop a “practical, enforceable safety plan” following public health guidance. “I ask you, please, wear face coverings. Maintain social distancing. Do the right thing for your family, for your neighbors, for your community, and most of all, for the over 2 million students in the state of Illinois,” she said. A trade group representing the state’s retailers released a statement on Aug. 7, opposing the rule, noting

Battery of retail workers Pritzker also announced his signing of Senate Bill 471 Aug. 7, a measure that amends the “aggravated battery” section of law to include the crime of assaulting
or battering a retail worker who is fulfilling duties such as relaying health care or safety guidelines. That includes enforcing face covering policies. The measure saw opposition in the General Assembly from some Democratic lawmakers who are opposed to all enhancements of criminal sentences. Another portion of the bill extended a one-year recovery period by 60 days for eligible public employees— including firefighters and correctional officers—who are recovering from an onthe-job injury and their recovery is hindered, directly or indirectly, by COVID-19. That bill also contained language which entitles employees of a horse track that intends to become a combined track-casino, known as a “racino,” to receive information about forming a union if the track is to receive a state license.

Pritzker administration unveils overhaul of juvenile justice system
New model for Department of Juvenile Justice based on reducing harms of incarceration
By Raymon Troncoso CAPITOL NEWS ILLINOIS
The state of Illinois plans to begin placing minors in the justice system in smaller, community-based detention centers that focus more on providing intervention services and education. Gov. JB Pritzker and Lt. Gov. Juliana Stratton announced plans to overhaul the juvenile justice system during a recent news conference in Chicago. A four-year blueprint split into three phases would move the Department of Juvenile Justice from “an antiquated theory of juvenile incarceration” in larger holding facilities into what the governor called a “21st century transformative model.” Phase 1 is to start immediately with increased investment in community-based interventions and reentry programs. Phase 2, starting next year, involves housing incarcerated youths in smaller, dorm-like facilities closer to their homes. Phase 3, also set to begin next year, would involve continued investment into communities and the transfer of prison-like facilities from DJJ to the Illinois Department of Corrections for housing overflow adult prison populations. According to Pritzker, data has shown for decades the Illinois juvenile justice system is too punitive and discriminatory. While the total number of youths in custody has decreased from 282 in January 2019 to 97 by June 2020, the governor said Black children still make up more than 70 percent of those in DJJ care despite being only 15 percent of the under-18 population in Illinois. Outside of claims of systemic racism, another point of contention is that the current system just doesn’t work. Pritzker said that between 2010 and 2018, an average of 55 percent of juvenile offenders released from DJJ custody eventually returned. According to DJJ’s seven-page overview, a benefit of the transformative model would be increased positive outcomes while also saving DJJ and IDOC money. “This model does not starve the children or employees in the juvenile justice system of resources,” DJJ Director Heidi Mueller said. “Instead, this model recognizes that the people we serve matter, and the people who are doing the serving matter.” A theme that permeated throughout the news conference was that the current model of criminal justice attempts to treat the symptoms of crime. The new model Pritzker and the DJJ are proposing will aim to tackle the roots of crime. Historically, Black communities in Illinois have been especially impacted by negative factors that increase the crime rate like discriminatory policies, segregation, disinvestment and gun violence. “I’m especially excited about how this model will intentionally invest in victim services in communities hit hardest by violence, acknowledging that our current system does little to directly support victims, and that more than 90 percent of the kids in our system were victims before they were offenders,” Mueller said. Pritzker’s announcement comes a day after the national organizations Youth Correctional Leaders for Justice and Fair Prosecution of Youth released a joint statement condemning the use of youth prisons. Criminal justice groups in the state, including the ACLU of Illinois, the Children and Family Justice Center at the Northwestern Pritzker School of Law, the Illinois Justice Project, and the John Howard Association of Illinois released a joint statement Friday afternoon commending Pritzker, Stratton and Mueller “on this important reform of the juvenile justice system in Illinois.” The JHA, an independent watchdog group that acts as oversight for Illinois prisons, went a step further and released an additional statement on its own praising the change and adding that it hopes “we will apply these same principles to the adult prison system.” The transformation of the juvenile justice system in Illinois is part of a broader push by Pritzker’s administration to institute social justice reforms, culminating in the Justice, Equity, and Opportunity Initiative established by executive order last year that coordinates justice reform through Stratton’s office. Other initiatives that have had potentially wideranging socioeconomic consequences for Illinois include legalized adult-use cannabis, social equity licenses for dispensaries and equity grants for investing in disadvantaged communities. “We cannot continue to be a country that criminalizes the children who need the most help,” Stratton said. “We need to help our young people heal, to redirect their energy to realize their potential and foster their dreams.”

We must keep going and find a new normal My life, in general, is good. I can’t complain, nor should I. Still, lately it’s felt like I am going through the motions: doing my daily tasks, completing my daily routine under a cloud, a dark and ominous cloud. Summer has been good and relaxing and sunny. My family is well. Still the sunshine doesn’t feel as bright as usual. The days feel shadowed, somehow, by something – sadness, but not sadness. Dismay, perhaps, or fate or gloom. It’s hard to explain, but easy at the same time. I can sum it up in one word: coronavirus. COVID-19 has changed our daily lives – our individual lives and our lives as a nation.

Mendoza warns of dangers ahead for Illinois budget Comptroller says federal aid critical for state to survive pandemic By Peter Hancock CAPITOL NEWS ILLINOIS
Illinois Comptroller Susana Mendoza is adding her voice to those warning that the state will face dire consequences if the federal government does not approve an economic aid package for state and local governments. “Without question, Illinois—and every other state, frankly—will need financial support from the federal government to bring much-needed stability back to state and local government,” Mendoza wrote in the latest edition of her Fiscal Focus magazine, which she distributed in a news release last week. “Taxpayers, bond houses, businesses, human service providers, schools, and colleges and universities need to know that together we will pull through this unprecedented time.” Mendoza, a Democrat who has served as comptroller since December 2016, noted that the state began the fiscal year on July 1 with a backlog of past-due bills totaling
nearly $5.4 billion. But that was only because the state borrowed $1.2 billion from the Federal Reserve’s Municipal Liquidity Facility—money that has to be paid back in its entirety, with 3.52-percent interest, during the current fiscal year that ends June 30, 2021. She also noted that the state has borrowed another $400 million from the state treasurer’s office and the state’s general revenue fund still owes about $763 million that it borrowed from other funds in previous years, which has to be repaid in installments through 2024. She said the total amount due in the current fiscal year between borrowing from the Fed, the treasurer’s office and interfund borrowing is $1.63 billion. But as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to ravage Illinois and the rest of the country, revenues flowing into state coffers are expected to fall significantly. The state’s unemployment rate in June stood at 14.6 percent, and
depending on how long the pandemic lasts, that could cut deeply into individual income tax and retail sales tax collections. The budget that state lawmakers passed in May called for $42.8 billion in general revenue fund spending. It also authorized spending the $5.5 billion that the state expects to receive in federal CARES Act money—funds Congress approved in March to help pay for COVID-19 response and relief efforts which cannot be used to replace lost revenues. Mendoza noted, however, that the budget was predicated on the idea that the state could borrow between $5 billion and $6.5 billion through various sources, including the Municipal Liquidity Facility, “depending on whether the federal government provides direct relief to states for revenue failures as a result of the pandemic.” Without the borrowing, Mendoza noted, lawmakers would have been faced with the prospect of making 35-percent cuts across the board.
“This would have been catastrophic to schools; public safety; and the medical, social, and human service programs upon which the state’s most vulnerable citizens rely,” she said. But Mendoza also warned about the consequences of further short-term borrowing without a dedicated source of revenue to repay it. “As Illinois considers the possibility of engaging in additional borrowing, it must be cautioned this is not ‘free money.’ It must be repaid,” she said. “Adding some $6.5 billion in potential borrowing, especially with interest rates of more than 4 (percent), to the $2.66 billion in shortterm borrowing already owed would have consequences on Illinois’ financial outlook for years to come.” Among those consequences, she said, would be another sharp spike in the state’s backlog of bills outside of the core payments for debt service, pensions, K-12 education, employee payroll, and social and human services.

COVID-19 cases rising in Lake and McHenry Counties Cases among teens and young adults, business-related complaints rising
Public health officials in Lake and McHenry Counties are urging the public to take action to slow the spread of COVID-19. As of August 3, the testing positivity rate in the North Suburban Region was 4.9 percent, with daily increases reported in 4 of the past 10 days. Cases in the region continue to rise, with higher rates reported among teens and young adults in recent weeks. The 20-29 age group now has the highest case count in both
counties. “Young people are not immune to COVID-19, and local outbreaks show how easily this virus can spread in social settings,” said Melissa Adamson, Public Health Administrator at the McHenry County Department of Health. “We have to look out for each other, protecting not only ourselves but the people we care about and their loved ones, too.” Complaints of social distancing and masking viola-
tions at restaurants and bars have also risen in recent months. Across the region, public health staff have investigated over 300 business-related complaints since May 29, when Illinois entered Phase 3 of the Restore Illinois Plan. “We thank the majority of business owners who have already gone above and beyond to operate safely during this phase of the pandemic, you have truly stepped up to protect your patrons and staff,”

The Lake County Circuit Clerk’s Office, in coordination with the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office, is pleased to announce that this year’s Lake County Amnesty Week will begin Monday, September 28, 2020 and run through Friday, October 2, 2020. During the week-long period, all collection fees and accrued interest will be waived on any past due fines owed on criminal and traffic matters in Lake County. Last year during Amnesty Week they waived over $290,000 in interest and collections fees for individuals with outstanding balances and close out approximately 380 cases as paid in full. As the community continues to face challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic the hope is that providing this service may ease a little of the burden that some individuals who owe on outstanding balances in the 19th Judicial Circuit Court may be facing. As we continue to follow

to ensure there is no direct contact between themselves and the bat. If a bat is found inside, contain it in a room by closing the door. If a bat is found outside and there has been exposure to a person or pet or if the bat is injured, place an upside down bucket over the bat if possible. In both cases, immediately call Animal Control (815-459-6222). To test bats for rabies, it is important the bat be in good condition (i.e. head is intact) and either alive or recently deceased. Rabies is a fatal disease caused by a virus that attacks the central nervous system, only confirmed by laboratory testing. The best way to avoid rabies is to avoid exposure. A bat that is active by day, found in a place where bats are not usually seen (such as in your home) or is unable to fly, is potentially rabid. People should take a “hands off” approach to all wild animals to reduce their risk of exposure. Children should also be educated to avoid handling wild animals. Bats are a protected species and part of the natural habitat. If you have questions about exposure, call MCDH’s Communicable Disease Program at 815-3344500. To learn more about rabies prevention, visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) at http://www.cdc.gov/rabies/

COURTESY OF SMILES Hi-Liter
A client of SMILES takes joy in helping to feed a horse at the riding center in Darien. As part of the program, participants learn about grooming and caring for horses.
Therapeutic riding centers work toward common goal By Daniel Schoettler

CORRESPONDENT
hen you’ve got a good thing going, others want to emulate it and help spread the joy to even more people. That type of thinking is at the core of the relationship between SMILES, a horse therapy center in Darien and Horse Power Healing Center in Eagle. SMILES, has helped pave the way as an example and a mentor for the Horse Power Healing Center. Wendy Konichek, co-founder of the center in Eagle, attended a demonstration put on by SMILES in the late 1980’s, and it helped start her own business later in life. “It planted the seed for me on how to use horses to help disabled people,” Konichek said.
“
The best part of the business is seeing how much joy our students get when interacting with the horses and volunteers.

A client meets one of the 22 horses at Horse Power Healing Center in Eagle, Wis.
In 2009, she moved back onto her family farm and along with her mother, Linda, decided to start the horse therapy service as a way to give back to the community. “Having the support of my parents has made it possible for

me to be able to live my dream of using horses to help people,” Konichek said.
Benefits abound
Horse therapy is not just about riding horses. It includes patterns as well as the participants using speech to talk with their instructors. “There are a lot of physical benefits to (horse) therapy,” SMILES executive director Kim Good said. “It can improve strength and posture as well as balance and stamina, but there is also an emotional component as it helps with self-esteem as well as doing something fun.” Both therapy centers have connections to their area schools as well. SMILES – which stands for Special Methods In Learning Equine Skills – has worked with the Wisconsin School for the Deaf. The organization has partnered with the school for many years and continues to bring in clients every year. SMILES also works with group homes, gets a lot of their clients through word of mouth and through their county funding partners. “We accept third-party funding from places like Children’s LongTerm Support and Iris,” Good said. “Those agencies have heard how good the programs are and how beneficial they are for clients, they recommend our services to
clients.”
Helping people
The Horse Power Healing Center has had volunteers from the Palmyra-Eagle School District as well as Mukwonago and East Troy schools. They are currently working on a specialized horse program with the Palmyra-Eagle district. The center has clients from the surrounding areas, but also had some people travel from more than an hour away. Both organizations serve individuals diagnosed with disabilities or challenges such as cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, strokes, cancer, depression, autism, as well as traumatic brain injuries. In addition to helping people with special needs, Horse Power Healing Center has programs for military personnel, veterans and their families with a program called “Horses for Heroes.” As part of this program, veterans can learn at their own pace with both riding and groundwork activities. The center also has a program for people diagnosed with terminal illnesses called “Horses for Hope,” in which participants can visit the farm, meet the horses, and ride the horses if able. With the “Horses for Hope,” program, if a person is unable to visit the center, staff will bring the horses to visit hospitals and nursing homes.
The center also has a program for rehabilitating neglected and abused horses called “Healing for Horses.” The goal of this program is to help horses become part of the center’s therapeutic program or find a home for them.
Individual attention
The difference between the center in Eagle and others is they limit group lessons to no more than three people and they offer individual lessons as well. Both centers rely on the help of volunteers. SMILES currently has around 400 volunteers and 22 horses, while Horse Power Healing Center has 35 volunteers and 22 horses. “The best part of the business is seeing how much joy our students get when interacting with the horses and volunteers,” Konichek said. “The blood, sweat, and tears of running a business are completely forgotten when you see a child’s face when they are riding a horse for the first time.” As for the relationship between the two centers, Konichek as she doesn’t feel that they compete and that they help each other. “I have had students ride here and at another therapeutic program at the same time,” She said. “I think it is good for students to learn from different instructors.”
