Park ridge fire department responds to fire at 53 Park lane On Wednesday January 22, 2020 at 1:27 p.m., the Park Ridge Fire Department was dispatched to a call for a possible house fire at a home located at 53 Park Lane. Upon arrival approximately seven minutes later, crews saw smoke and flame discharging from the top of the chimney.

Companies were simultaneously sent to the interior of the home and the roof to try to extinguish the fire, which had spread beyond the chimney into the roof structure. Crews on the roof were able to access the fire and begin to extinguish it from the outside, while the interior crews were able to stop the fire from spreading out of the attic. No residents or fire personnel were injured in this incident. PRFD fire investigators have ruled the fire accidental in nature due to radiant heat with an approximate fire loss of $50,000. The Park Ridge Fire Department was assisted on scene by crews from the Des Plaines and Rosemont Fire Departments. Fire and ambulance crews from Des Plaines, North Maine, and Rosemont Fire Departments responded to two EMS calls that occurred while PRFD crews were committed to the fire.

This award recognizes for her success in her new role overseeing facility maintenance as well as her accomplishments in advancing natural lawn care in the industry. Since joining the Park Ridge Park District in November 2015, Kristi has shifted the District’s lawn care maintenance to practices that are more natural and minimize the use of synthetic products. These practices include a combination and balance of: impactful aeration, efficient plant feeding, superior grass selection, proper water management, and easier mowing.

She has also been cited as the “best in our industry” by Midwest Grows Green, an organization who regularly communicates with over 275 lawn care man-

Keep your wallet small and work it into your budget sometimes things come up in the course of day-to-day life that are just necessary, unexpected expenses dear dave: I’m trying very hard to get out of debt. I have my beginner emergency fund in place, and I’m living on a monthly budget. Is it OK to include a little wallet cash in my budget at this point, just in case?

andrew

A: It’s probably not going to throw you off too much in terms of getting out of debt if you budget $20 or so, just to have some cash in your wallet.

I wouldn’t recommend much more than that, though. The idea of having $50, $100, or $200 in walking around money is pretty self-defeating when

you’re supposedly saving, budgeting and working hard to get out of debt.

What really matters is the amount of pocket money you allow yourself to have.

Think of it as a safety valve. Sometimes things come up in the course of day-to-day life that are just necessary, unexpected expenses — but not emergencies. Just designate a small amount of cash for it as part of your

regular, monthly budget and stick to that amount!

dear dave: Do you think I should stop making contributions to my 401(k) for a year, so I can save up an emergency fund?

I’m 28, and debt-free, but I don’t have anything saved for emergencies.

simeon quickness too much for notre dame By drake skleBa for the Bugle

@BugleNewspapers sweditor@buglenewspapers.com The Chicago Public League Red South-Central Division is considered by many to be the best boys’ basketball conference in the state. Simeon leads the conference with seven IHSA state championships.

Morgan Park has taken home four IHSA state titles. Curie won two, but had to forfeit, one championship because of illegalities and Bogan placed second in Class 3A last season.

On December 15, 2019, Notre Dame defeated Bogan 58-56 in a Team Rose Shootout game at Mount Carmel.

The Dons took a 12-game winning streak into their Chicago/Suburban Shootout at Fenwick High School on MLK Day Monday versus CPL Red South-Central foe Morgan Park. With Sayles scoring 18 points, the Dons rolled to a 68-59 win over the Mustangs.

On Saturday at the ‘When Sides Collide’ Shootout at Glenbard East, the Dons put their 14-game winningstreak on the line against Simeon.

The Dons were looking defeat the Wolverines and complete a sweep of the mighty CPL Red-South Central Division.

Simeon (15-8) shot the lights out in the first half, shooting 67 percent and opening up a 32-20 lead at halftime.

Notre Dame (21-3) closed to within two in the third quarter and then again within four points in the fourth quarter before falling 67-53, dashing its hopes of sweeping the mighty CPL RS-C and the Dons’ 14-game wining streak came to a close.

Like it has many times this season, the first two minutes of the third quarter belonged to Dons junior Lou-

is Lsemond. In 90 seconds Lesmond (15 points, three 3’s) buried a pair of long-range bombs to pull the Dons within 32-26 with 6:30 remaining in the quarter.

With 3:45 left, Lesmond scored inside and when Sayles’ sent the sell-out crowd into a frenzy with his monster slam, the Dons pulled within 35-33 with 3:10 in the third quarter.

Simeon closed out the quarter on a 8-2 run led by St. Laurence transfer Jerome Williams (24 points), who scored six consecutive points for the Wolverines.

The Dons would not go down easily.

Lesmond buried his third triple to pull the Dons within 45-41 with 6:20 left. Senior Sean Bergstrom’s lay-in with 5:53 brought the Dons as close as they would get at 47-43.

Clearly fatigued, Notre Dame withered against the high-flying Wolverines from Chicago in the last few minutes.

Junior Troy D’Amico scored 14 of his 20 points in the first half.

“They had much more energy than we had,” Lesmond said. “They wanted it more than we did. In these similar situations in the future, we must come out with much more energy.”

“Give all the credit to Simeon,” Notre Dame coach Kevin Clancy said.

“We just were not able to do that tonight around the basket. It was a long night for us.”

Lesmond accentuated the positive.

“We will learn from this defeat,” he said. “All our goals are still attainable.

We have reached our goals of winning the Thanksgiving and Christmas Tournaments. We are in first place in the East Suburban Catholic Conference and the Class 3A State Championship still awaits us in Peoria in March.”

Helicopter in crash that killed Kobe Bryant once owned by state of Illinois

By Ben orner Capitol news

www.buglenewspapers.com The luxury helicopter that crashed Sunday morning in California, killing all nine people on board including former NBA star Kobe Bryant, was once owned by the state of Illinois.

The Sikorsky S-76B helicopter was built in 1991, according to the Federal Aviation Administration’s aircraft registry. The state of Illinois used it from 2007 to 2015, according to helicopter information database Helis.

Under the direction of former Gov. Bruce Rauner, the state sold the helicopter along with four other surplus aircraft in 2015 for $2.5 million. Rauner said selling the aircraft “also avoided an additional $1 million in inspections and repairs,” according to an Associated Press story after the sales.

The winning bid for the helicopter was $515,161, placed by user “Jimbagge1,” according to a listing on the state’s online auction website, iBid. Both the aircraft and its two engines had just under 4,000 hours of airframe time when the copter was sold.

At the time of the crash, the registered owner of the helicopter was Island Express Holding Corp of Van Nuys, California, which registered it a month after it was won at auction.

The state of Illinois previously attempted to sell the helicopter in 2014, but receive zero bids, according to that auction’s iBid listing.

PHOTO BY COURTESY PF IBID.ILLINOIS.GOV

A public information officer at the Illinois Department of Transportation, which maintains state aircraft, did not have any available information regarding the helicopter or its uses for the state.

The copter’s information page on Helis, however, labels it as “VIP Governor.”

A public information officer for

the governor’s office also did not have available information. A PIO for the Illinois Department of Central Management Services, which operates iBid, did not immediately respond to a request for more information.

Sikorsky is a subsidiary of Lockheed Martin, an American defense contractor.

Bryant, 41, played for the Los Angeles Lakers from 1996 to 2016. He won five NBA championships, the Most Valuable Player award in 2008 and appeared in 18 all-star games.

One of his four daughters, Gianna, 13, was also killed in Sunday’s crash. Bryant also leaves behind his wife of 18 years, Vanessa.

Also killed in the crash were John

Altobelli, the head baseball coach at Orange Coast College in Costa Mesa, California, his wife, Keri and their daughter Alyssa.

Payton Chester, a 13-year-old basketball player, and her mother Sarah were also on board as well as Christina Mauser, a coach for the girls’ team.

The pilot, Ara Zobayan, also died.

College

ND grad D’Avanzo scores 10 in Lewis’ conference loss Lewis’ men’s basketball team ran into a hot shooting No. 18 MissouriSt. Louis lineup in its 77-63 loss at Neil Carey Arena on Saturday afternoon. The loss drops the Flyers to 108, 5-5 GLVC while the Tritons improve to 18-2, 9-1 GLVC. The two sides went back-and-forth for the first 10-plus minutes before UMSL began to pull away thanks to an 18-3 run and wouldn’t allow Lewis

to get closer than 13 points the rest of the half. The Tritons would take a 52-34 lead into the locker room at the half.

UMSL at one point in the half was shooting over 90 percent (19-for-21) from the floor as they finished the half shooting at an 81 percent clip (21-for-26).

The Flyers shot a respectable 44 percent (11-for-25) from the floor

and was 7-of-14 from three in the first 20 minutes.

The Tritons extended its lead to as many as 22 points in the second half.

Lewis made a late run to get within 12 after a basket from Vlado Zrnic (Greendale, Wis./Greendale) with 0:37 left but that would be as close as they got.

The Flyers shot nearly 45 percent (22-for-49) from the floor, was 11-

of-21 from three but shot 67 percent at the foul line. They outrebounded UMSL 27-26 but turned the ball over 15 times.

Dre Bell (Detroit, Mich./River Rouge) led Lewis with 11 points while Anthony D’Avanzo (Harwood Heights, Ill./Notre Dame), Brandon McCombs (Jacksonville, Ill./Jacksonville) and Artese Stapleton (Chicago, Ill./Kenwood) had 10 points apiece.

The Tritons dominated in the paint outscoring Lewis 38-22 in the contest. UMSL shot over 57 percent from the floor in the game, was 9-of-20 from three and shot 62 percent at the foul line. Yaakema Rose led all scorers with 26 points.

Jose Grubbs added 16 points, Jason Towery dropped in 13 points and Steve Webb finished with 12.

Pritzker Administration Launches New Initiative to Invest in Opportunity Zones Across the State DCEO Will Award $12 Million in Competitive Grants to Support Capital Projects in Underserved Communities Monday, January 27, 2020 Commerce and Economic Opportunity, Department of CHICAGO – As part of Governor JB Pritzker’s historic $45 billion capital program, the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) today announced a new initiative to invest $12 million to support investment in the state’s opportunity zones. The agency will be issuing a competitive notice of funding

Phone: 815.436.2431 web: buglenewspapers.com/classifieds email: classifieds@buglenewspapers.com

opportunity (NOFO) in the coming days. Governor Pritzker announced this new program at an event to announce a commitment

by Fifth Third Bank and the Chicago-based Decennial Group to invest approximately $20 million in Illinois’ opportunity zones.

“Supporting equitable economic growth is one of the central goals of our historic $45 billion capital plan,” said Gov. JB Pritzker. “By investing $12 million in Rebuild Illinois funds in Opportunity Zone projects, we can take advantage of this federal tax incentive to stretch our capital dollars further while creating jobs and opportunity in communities that have suffered from a lack of investment for decades.”

DCEO will invite communities, nonprofits, developers, and other stakeholders to compete for $12 million in capital grants to support projects in Opportunity Zones.

These capital grants will offer matching funds for infrastructure, utility, remediation and other site preparedness related costs for affordable housing, community development, and commercial real estate projects that will create jobs and growth. Once the NOFO is posted, interested parties will have 90 days to prepare and submit grant applications.

“The Pritzker administration’s

Five-Year Economic Plan is focused on catalyzing fair and equitable economic growth that lifts up communities across Illinois,” said DCEO Director Erin Guthrie.

“Pairing our Rebuild Illinois capital dollars with the incentives offered by federal Opportunity Zones allows us to achieve greater impact in underserved and economically distressed areas.”

Opportunity Zones are defined as distressed or economically underserved areas census tracts.

Certain types of investments made in opportunity zones that meet specific criteria stand to receive favorable capital gains tax benefits at both the federal and state levels. Illinois designated 327 Opportunity Zones in 2018, and a map of the state’s zones can be found here.

In scoring grant applications, DCEO will consider criteria such as job creation, community support, project readiness and viability, the availability of matching financing, alignment of the project with the Governor’s 5-Year Economic Plan, and ability of the project to have a positive economic impact in communities of need. Applicants are encouraged to work with nonprofits, community organizations, elected officials, and other stakeholders to obtain letters that demonstrate local and regional support.
