JJC Police launch community outreach initiative The Joliet Junior College Police Department is expanding its community outreach with the launch of the Police and Community Engagement (PACE) team.

Police Chief Brandon Campbell said the goal of PACE is to bridge the gap between the community and the department.

“If you have a good relationship that’s built on mutual respect between the police department and the community it’s a great working partnership because the police can’t get anything done without supporting the community,” said Campbell.

To grow those relationships, the department has established the PACE Fund through the JJC Foundation to support various community events such as a trunk or treat, fire truck pull, and special guest speakers. The fund would also help continue successful programs like Shop with a Cop, which started last December to assist local youth in need.

“As a police department we take them on a shopping spree, if you will,” said Campbell. “It’s trying to lift up some of the people in the community that may not be as fortunate as others due to certain circumstances, particularly last year due to COVID-19.”

Campbell said these initiatives will not only support those in need, but the community at large. Later this summer, they plan to coordinate a free ice cream giveaway with TCBY. “The only tangible thing we have

jobs. Initiatives such as this really show we’re going out of our way to

make these relationships and foster these partnerships because it’s not

up to the community to come to us it’s up to us to go to them.”

CCDHP recommends layered mitigation strategies It is the strong recommendation of the Cook County Department of Public Health that all schools implement the layered mitigation strategies to prevent COVID-19 transmission that have been recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in its Guidance for K-12 Schools and adopted by the Illinois Department of Public Health. The Cook County Department of Public Health also fully endorses the CDC recommendations.

The layered mitigation strategy includes: Vaccination: All eligible students and staff should be encouraged to get vaccinated against COVID-19.

Vaccination remains the leading public health strategy to prevent COVID-19.

Fully vaccinated individuals are not required to quarantine if they have been in close contact with someone who has Covid-19 and show no symptoms.

Contact CCDPH to request an onsite vaccination clinic for your students and school community.

Mask Use: Masks should be worn by all unvaccinated individuals aged 2 years and older while indoors.

When unvaccinated individuals consistently and correctly wear masks, they protect themselves and protect others – especially important as many children at the elementary level are not yet eligible to receive vaccines.

Students and staff who are masked and within 3-6 feet of a confirmed case are not considered close contacts in the new CDC guidance. This means that consistent and correct mask use will decrease the number of students needing to quarantine at home in the case of exposure. With masking, fewer students will miss in-person instruction.

The expectation is that schools will follow the CDC masking guidance, with all unvaccinated individuals masked consistently and correctly.

CCDPH encourages schools to take the stricter approach of following the guidelines issued by the American

Academy of Pediatrics requiring all individuals older than age 2 who can medically tolerate face coverings to wear masks, regardless of vaccination status.

Physical Distancing: At least 3 feet of physical distancing should be implemented whenever possible within classrooms.

To allow for physical distancing, it is recommended that schools stagger lunchtimes and avoid large gatherings like assemblies or large meetings.

Screening, Testing and Reporting: Schools are encouraged, to implement screening and testing programs to promptly identify and report cases, clusters, and outbreaks.

Ventilation: Improvements and enhancements made to ventilation systems can help reduce the concentration of virus particles indoors to reduce COVID-19 transmission.

Hygiene: Good respiratory and hand hygiene should be practiced by all individuals, including covering coughs and sneezes, frequent handwashing, and hand sanitizer use.

Staying home when sick: All individuals should stay home when they are ill to minimize the chance of spreading COVID-19.

Contact tracing, Isolation, and Quarantine: Schools should continue to work with CCDPH to report cases for contact tracing, and require isolation and quarantine as recommended for exposed or ill individuals.

Cleaning: Proper cleaning and disinfection at least once a day can help to reduce the presence of virus on surfaces.

The use of “should” in the guidance does not imply that a strategy is optional.

Each of these topics is addressed in depth in (Guidance for K-12 schools).

CCDPH would also like to draw your attention to the following best practices: Update your COVID emergency operations plan in preparation for the 2021-2022 school year Identify a single point of contact at your school when communicating

with CCDPH Collect, update and maintain COVID-19 vaccination status among your students, faculty and staff so that if a case, cluster or outbreak occurs, swift action can be taken CCDPH will be monitoring case rates closely. This guidance may change to recommend additional pre-

vention strategies as rates change in suburban Cook County.

CCDPH shares your goal of implementing safe, in-person instruction this school year for all students, faculty and staff. Evidence supports the benefits of in-person instruction for a student’s academic achievement and social-emotional needs and devel-

opment. Evidence also supports the use of the mitigation strategies to reduce COVID-19 transmission to keep schools open. It is the recommendation of CCDPH that all districts in suburban Cook County adopt the sciencebased, layered prevention strategies to reduce COVID-19 transmission in schools.

BUSINESS & REAL ESTATE

COLUMN >> DAVE SAYS

How can I make an impact with investing? dear dave,

in good, growth stock mutual funds and real estate paid for with cash. And hey, if you want to make a difference in the world and still invest the old fashioned way, create room in your budget for charitable giving or saving with the goal of making donations to organizations and causes you care about. I hope this helps, Carson!

A friend recently mentioned something called impact investing to me.

What exactly is this? How do impact investment funds perform, and what do you think about them?

dear carson,

carson

Impact investing generally aims to benefit society, while providing a profit for the investor, by investing in companies, funds and organizations that are aligned with causes, certain values or issues. Think of it as a middle ground between traditional investing and charitable giving, where you can match your investing with your own particular beliefs. It really isn’t all that different from investing in traditional mutual funds, except for the goal of the funds.

Since their inception, impact investments have averaged returns of a little less than 6%. That’s well below the average return of the S&P 500. Impact investing can do some good, but the truth is it’s hard to measure exactly how much good it’s doing. If you’re going to invest in impact investing funds, you need to make sure you

dave dear dave, understand exactly how your money is going to help the businesses you invest in, if they’re actually doing what they say they’re doing, and whether or not they’re really making a difference for the better.

As with all investments, it pays to do a lot of research and find an advisor with the heart of a teacher. And never invest in anything if you don’t completely understand how it works.

Remember, it’s your money that’s in the mix. Don’t feel like the odd man out if you’re the only one not joining in on an investment craze your friends are diving into.

Personally, I recommend investing

I’m 22, and I just recently graduated from college. I’m lucky enough to be walking into a job making $60,000 a year with a company I interned with during school, and I’ll be living with parents for the next few months. I have about $50,000 in student loan debt, but I also have $25,000 in savings, along with an E-Trade account with two single stocks that was given to me a couple of years ago. Those stocks are now worth about $13,000 combined. Should I sell the stocks to help pay off debt, or put the money from their sale into mutual funds?

dear tyler,

tyler

In situations like yours, I teach folks to pull out any money they have that’s not in retirement plans, and use it to pay off debt. The shortest distance between where you are now, and wealth, isn’t a couple of stocks in an E-Trade account. The shortest distance beIN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE 12TH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT COUNTY OF WILL JOLIET, ILLINOIS U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, AS TRUSTEE SUCCESSOR IN INTEREST TO BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., AS TRUSTEE, AS SUCCESSOR BY MERGER TO LASALLE BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, AS INDENTURE TRUSTEE FOR THE HOLDERS OF THE ACCREDITED MORTGAGE LOAN TRUST 2005-3 ASSET BACKED NOTES; Plaintiff, vs.

GEORGINA OBENG AKA GEORGINA A. OBENG; JAMES OBENG AKA JAMES K. OBENG; UNKNOWN OWNERS GENERALLY AND NON RECORD CLAIMANTS; Defendants,

tween you and wealth is becoming debt-free and taking control of your largest wealth-building tool—your income.

If I’m you, I’m going to clean out everything, including my savings— down to $1,000—and throw it at debt.

After that, I’m living on a strict budget with no unnecessary spending until that debt is all gone. Man, with the money you’ll make right out of college you can be debt-free, and on your way to building a fully-funded emergency fund and wealth, so fast it’ll make your head spin.

Get this done, Tyler. Today!

dear dave, I’ve been in sales for 15 years. I love my job, and I love my company. Our business wasn’t affected as much as some during the pandemic, but my numbers have become stagnant.

They’re still good, but I feel I can do better. Do you have any advice for someone who wants to raise their sales and become a more productive team member?

dear sara,

sara

Boy, I wish more people had the same attitude about their jobs. Folks with that kind of drive and sense of responsibility are almost always successful in their professional and personal lives.

19 CH 1193 NOTICE OF SALE PUBLIC NOTICE is hereby given that pursuant to a Judgment of Foreclosure entered in the above entitled cause Intercounty Judicial Sales Corporation will on Wednesday, August 18, 2021, at the hour of 12:00 noon, OUTSIDE Room 201, Will County Court Annex, 57 North Ottawa Street, Joliet, Illinois 60432, sell to the highest bidder for cash, the following described mortgaged real estate:

I want you to think about one simple word—serving. It isn’t just a word or an idea, it’s an attitude. Serving means you provide what you have to offer in a way that makes customers happy to trade their money and time for it.

But don’t make the mistake of confusing serving with subservient. What I’m talking about is being proactive with customers individually and in the marketplace. It means being excited about what you have to offer, and believing you’ve got a great product at a great price. It means you’re determined to give your customers a great experience 100% of the time, and that going the extra mile—whether you have to or not—is just business as usual. And, it means if something goes wrong, you’ll step up and make things right in a way that will make them forget a glitch ever happened.

If you help enough people, and make that the first order of your business and those relationships, you’ll never have to worry about success! * Dave Ramsey is CEO of Ramsey Solutions.

JJC Police launch community outreach initiative After more than a decade of discussions, local officials gathered on July 20 to officially break ground on the Houbolt Bridge, part of the Houbolt Road extension, spanning the Des Plaines River and connecting I-80 to the Centerpoint Intermodal Center.

This bridge is estimated to support more than 20,000 trucks daily and will reduce truck traffic on local roads such as Route 53, which traverses through downtown Joliet, U.S. Route 6, and Laraway Road. It is anticipated to open Spring of 2023.

“As North America’s largest inland port, the Houbolt Road Extension is a critical piece of improving efficiency of our intermodal traffic and enhancing safety on our local roadways,” said Will County Executive Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant. “This bridge will cut the distance trucks travel into and out of the Centerpoint Intermodal yard which will help reduce the impact on our local roads while still contributing to our local economy.”

The new bridge will be four-mile long and is being financed through a joint venture between United Bridge Partners, Centerpoint Properties, and the City of Joliet. These entities will also own, operate, and maintain the bridge.

“We began this vision for a bridge over the Des Plaines River a long time ago, when the Centerpoint Intermodal was built,” said Mike Murphy, chief development officer for Centerpoint Propeties. “Will County is recognized for its strategic location and its strong support of the logistics

“Without a doubt, the landscape of Will County has changed dramatically over the past two decades,”

added Bertino-Tarrant. “We continue to attract national and international businesses which bring revenue to our communities and jobs

for our residents. Our future is bright and the Houbolt Bridge will provide an excellent path for our continued success.”

Romeoville’s Wayfair project named Most Significant Lease Transaction by RE Journals At the Illinois Real Estate Journal Awards ceremony, the Village of Romeoville’s Wayfair project was named Most Significant Lease Transaction. The Village was also a finalist for Municipality of the Year.

The e-retailer’s fulfilment center represents a $125 million investment in the community and will generate millions of dollars in taxable sales. Wayfair’s building, coming in at 1.2 million square feet, is one of the largest recent transactions in the region and is the largest lease in Romeoville’s history. The project will be one of the primary property tax generators in Romeoville.

“It’s a great honor to be recognized for the work that went into this lease agreement,” said Mayor Noak. “Our partnership with Wayfair is already off to a fantastic start and we are eager to officially welcome them to Romeoville.”

Wayfair plans to hire 250 full-time roles with peak employment eventually approaching 500 jobs. Projected opening is mid 2022. Part of this project also includes the extension of Pinnacle Drive, connecting Renwick Road to Airport Road.
