Carrollton Council reviews plan needed for TIF district have citizen input. The planning process for the city provides for citizen input early in the planning process, prior to the required public hearing after the plan has been developed.

The Community Analysis Component of the plan begins with an examination of population and economic trends and projections. The projections provide an estimate of future population and economic activity, which provides a way to estimate future land use requirements and supporting streets and utilities.

By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press Carrollton City Council met in special session Tuesday, Oct. 22 to review the city’s Comprehensive Plan prepared by Moran Economic Development Group.

The city contracted Moran to put together both the comprehensive plan and the TIF plan earlier in the year.

One of the requirements for establishing a TIF district is to have a comprehensive plan in place.

Preparing a city plan is a structured process, and in order for it to have community support, it is essential to

ment topics and represent the action items and policy positions for the city government to follow.

There are several overall goals of the plan, and they serve as the primary basis for adopting the plan.

Decisions made concerning development should be based on achieving the following goals: Q Promote and protect public health, safety and welfare of the city residents.

Q Protect and enhance the local economic, social and cultural climate.

Q Provide for an appropriate amount and arrangement of land uses for the future expansion of the city.

Q Efficiently provide for essential public services and utilities.

Some of the goals and objectives developed come from the Carrollton Square Initiative effort which included the development of a planning and economic development strategy to bolster Carrollton’s current assets and support the growth of downtown vitality, attraction and retention of residents, enhancement of visitor amenities and increased investment and tax base.

There were numerous goals identified for a variety of areas within the city.

undreds of children flocked to 217 Terror Haunted House Family Friendly Fear Fest this past Sunday in Roodhouse.

The event offered children the opportunity to go through the popular haunted house in their Halloween costumes and receive candy. “This gives the children the opportunity to see that what we do is all make-believe and there is nothing really to be afraid of,� Christina Cathers said. “There is no way the little ones could handle our full scare because it is pretty intense. This allows them to go through it and we allow them to touch everything and see that it is not real.�

217 Terror is owned by Adam and Christina Cathers and this is the 14th year that the haunted house has been scaring the pants off of people from all over the state.

It is not the first year that they have held the Family Friendly Fearfest but it is the first time that it has been free to everyone. “In the past, we charged an entry fee of $5, but this year and from here on out, the event is going to be totally free,� Cathers said. “This community has been huge supporter of us for the past 14 years, and we wanted to be able to do something to give

back to the community. This is our way of saying thank you for all the support.�

The event started at 1 p.m. with the Roodhouse Fire Department bringing the characters from the children’s TV show, Paw Patrol, to the haunted house on the firetruck. “The kids that were here when they rode in absolutely loved it,� Cathers said. “I would say more than 400 kids had gone through by that time – that is not counting the parents who went through with them.�

But as entertaining as it was for the kids, it was also an opportunity for everyone to give back to the various charities in the community. This year, the charities included the Roodhouse Fire Department, Mandy’s Whine and Bark Pet Rescue in White Hall and the North Greene Food Pantry. “Those who have shown up have shown tremendous support for our charities this year,� Cathers said. “They have made cash and toy donations to our Roodhouse Fire Department’s annual toy drive as well as donations to the pet rescue and we have a table over half full of non-perishable food items that will be donated to the North Greene Food Pantry.�

217 Terror opened its 14th season on Oct. 4 and has been open every Friday, Saturday and Sunday since that time.

Considering Halloween is on Thursday this year, they will (See, FAMILY, A2)

Former State’s Attorney White Hall Community charged in horse abuse case Thanksgiving meal canceled

By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press More than a month after four horses were found suffering from starvation on a rural Greene County farm, charges have been filed against the owner, former Greene County States Attorney Kenneth Hobson.

Hobson, 61, has been charged with two counts of cruel treatment and two counts of owner’s duties in Greene

County Circuit Court on Oct. 23 relating the condition of the horses.

The cruel treatment charges allege that Hobson, between June 18 and Sept. 17 cruelly treated the horses by failing to provide adequate food and veterinary care to a palomino colt and a 15-year-old bay mare gelding in his care, whom both had open wounds that went untreated.

By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press The Community Thanksgiving Church meal in White Hall, held on Thanksgiving Day, has been a tradition for the past 21 years, but that tradition has ended.

This year, organizers announced it has been canceled. “Due to health concerns for both myself and Marsha Baumgartner, we will not be doing the Thanksgiving meal this year,� Kim Carter said. “We have told all of the churches in White Hall hoping that another group would take this ministry over

but not one person or group has yet come forward.�

Baumgartner and Carter took over the reigns of the program three years ago. Entire families, as well as secluded individuals and those receiving Meals on Wheels, have relied on the program to supply a complete Thanksgiving dinner.

After 21 years, the dinner was almost like a well-oiled machine on Thanksgiving Day seeing roughly 25 to 30 volunteers at one time. “We never lack volunteers the day before or on the day of but we (See, CANCELLED, A2)

Roodhouse amends peddler’s license ordinance

Submitted photo

This photo, posted on Randy’s Rescue Ranch Facebook page, shows two of the four horses seized from the property of Kenneth Hobson in rural Greene County near Eldred. Two of the horses, including the foal pictured, had open wounds that have gone untreated to the point of being infested with maggots and flies.

By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press Roodhouse City Council amended its ordinance regarding peddler’s license fees at the Oct. 23 city council meeting.

Roodhouse Mayor Tommy Martin said the reason for amending the ordinance is that there is someone who wants to possibly sell ice cream from a truck next year. “There is a guy from Jerseyville who has an ice cream truck, and he is wanting to run our streets in the summer and sell ice cream,� Martin

said. “Right now, our license is very outdated and since he plans to do the same thing in White Hall and they just amended their ordinance, we opted to set our fees the same as theirs.�

The amended ordinance sets the daily fee for a license at $25 per day or a yearly fee of $75. Currently, the fee is $10 a day or $25 for a year. “It’s not like they are going to be going door to door trying to sell stuff like some that do those steaks,�

Martin said. “He will be going up and (See, LICENSE, A4)

Outdoor Truths: Gary Miller

New days offer up a clean slate One of my favorite creations in our world is that thing we call a “day.”

You know, that 24 hours that comes to an end only to begin another 24 hours.

Now, I know it doesn’t take much to intrigue me, but this has always been something that I have given thought to.

And if you think about it, it is one of the most refreshing things about life.

In hunting or fishing, it doesn’t matter what yesterday was like, today is a new day.

It doesn’t matter that I never saw a deer yesterday, today will be better. It doesn’t matter if I didn’t catch any fish yesterday, today may be the day they turn on.

Again, if you really think

TIF

OPINION

Carrollton, Illinois

about it, hunters and fishermen are men and women of optimism. If we were not, we would never get up the next morning and do it all over again. Today is a creation that is meant to be one of promise and hope, not dread and despair.

It is meant to be a time for leaving the disappointments and discouragements of yesterday and holding on to the possibility of something better.

It is also an opportunity to forget about the failures of days past and embrace new mercy.

There is a very important verse in the Bible that says this: “Great is His faithfulness; His mercies begin afresh each day.”

I really, really like that... and

you should too.

Let me tell you why.

Some of you right now really messed up yesterday.

You made a promise that you broke. You perhaps succumbed to temptation. The determination you thought you had, left you yesterday.

The self-control that had been your ally suddenly abandoned you yesterday.

But that was yesterday.

Today is today. It is new.

You do not have to bring the failures of yesterday with you today.

God’s mercies begin afresh each day!

You now have a choice; you can either run from God, ashamed of the failures of the past, or you can run to him

with a heart-felt confess i o n , knowing his faithfulness is great and that he has new mercy that he longs to show to you, afresh, beginning each and every day.

(Continued from A1) The owner’s duties charges allege that Hobson neglected his duties as an owner by failing to provide adequate food and water to a 25-year-old paint mare and a 10-year-old buckskin mare.

The four horses were reportedly found near death on Sept. 18 and removed from the property by the Greene County Sheriff’s Department and taken to Randy’s Rescue Ranch in O’Fallon, where they received the proper veterinary care and are recovering.

Hobson had petitioned to get the horses back, but was denied. There were six other horses on the property that were not in a condition that warranted seizure. There were also around 20 dogs on the property.

Greene County Sheriff Rob McMillen described the horses, including one young foal, as severely underweight and noted their bodies looked like merely skin stretched over bones.

One of the horses and the foal reportedly had lacerations that had gone untreated and were infested with flies and maggots.

According to McMillen, the horses were already the subject of an investigation by the Illinois Department of Agriculture alleging abuse. The department received the complaint earlier this year and made

a visit to the property.

When official with the department returned to check on the horses, Hobson had not complied with their orders to provide them veterinary care, and they were in much worse condition than before, McMillen said.

Hobson would not voluntarily surrender the horses, so the Sheriff’s Department was called in to help with removing the horses from the property on Sept. 18.

After witnessing the condition of the horses, McMillen opted to open a criminal investigation and presented his findings to the Greene County States Attorney.

“Because Mr. Hobson was a former States Attorney in the county (1992-1996), I requested that the case be reviewed by the Appellate Prosecutor’s Office,” Greene County State’s Attorney Caleb Briscoe said after being presented with the results of McMillen’s investigation. “The information was given to them, and it will be up to them to assign a special prosecutor who will then decide whether the case warrants the filing of criminal charges.”

The case was assigned to Special Prosecutor Matt Goetten who filed charges against Hobson on Oct. 23.

Hobson is due in Greene County Circuit Court for a first appearance on Nov. 4 at 1:15 p.m.

Family (Continued from A1) open on Thursday and Friday from 7 p.m.10 p.m. They will also be open Nov. 1 and 2 from 7 p.m. to midnight for the first time this year because of the crowds.

“On our slowest nights, we have had anywhere from 150 to 200 go through the haunted house,” Cathers said. “On a busy night, we have had 350 to 400 through in a single night.”

After 14 years, 217 Terror has earned a reputation, drawing people in from as far away as Chicago.

“Haunted house enthusiasts will drive a couple hours one way just to go to a good hunt and we always try to give them a good show when they come here,” Cathers said.

There is no shortage of monsters and creatures to scare those pants off. Some of

the volunteers create a different character each year while others develop their character from year to year.

“Our volunteers can step outside of their comfort zone while they are in character,” Cathers said. “A lot of them are very shy but once they put on that costume and makeup they really come out of their shell.

It’s almost like putting on a play – they get to dress up and act and get creative with their costumes, makeup and characters.”

The entire season has been a success but Family Friendly Fear Fest was especially well attended this year.

“This whole season has been a huge success and we are thrilled at the donations that have come our way for our non-profits that we are supporting this year,” Cathers said.

Cancelled (Continued from A1) can’t seem to get the manpower on the day leading up to this,” Carter said.

The real work starts on the Sunday before Thanksgiving.

“There is a lot of heavy lifting beginning the Sunday before all the way up to Thanksgiving, and Marsha and I have done it by ourselves all these years,” Carter said.

“We can no longer do it by ourselves.”

The food is provided by area churches who are given lists of food items needed with each church selecting the items they are going to provide for the meal.

“We don’t start getting donations of food or money until the beginning of November so we haven’t asked for anything this year or sent out a list since we

can’t do it this year,” Carter said. “With any left over funds from the previous year, we have always made Christmas baskets and delivered them on Christmas Eve to the senior citizens who live in the housing.”

Last year, around 250 meals were served, which includes deliveries to the seniors who receive Meals on Wheels, meals delivered to area businesses who are open on that day and meals served at Seton Hall.

“We just want to get the word out…,” Carter said. “Especially to those who receive the Meals on Wheels who depend on us for their meal, we want to give them the opportunity to make other arranges for dinner that day.”

We look forward to worshipping with you at these events. Our service this morning centered on the Lord’s Supper.

Scripture was from 1 Cor. 23-29.

There is always a table of some sort used to serve the elements of the supper. Most communion tables are inscribed with the words “In Remembrance of Me.” Do we remember Jesus Christ suffered for us? Do we remember his physical and mental sufferings, the disciples sleeping instead of praying as he asked them to do.

Judas betrayal, Peters denial, the arrest in the garden, the mock trial, the disciples abandoning Jesus in his time of need. I invite you to read the scriptures and remember he died for you so that you might have life eternally.

Do you know him as savior and lord?

If not you can simply by admitting to him that you need him to forgive you of your sins and ask him to come into your heart and live with you forever.

Our recent prayer requests are: Nancy and Keith, Margie, Greg, Vera, Donnie, Mary and Larry, Bonnie, Jody, Darrell, Hester family, Jessica, Ray and Patty and David. We invite you to join us each Sunday morning at 10:30 a.m. and Wednesday evenings for Bible study at 6:30 p.m.

hen reduced to its bare elements, life is really quite simple, and yet we often make it complicated. We need food and water to live, and not much more, other than perhaps a roof over our head and a few items of clothing. Have you ever looked around your house and asked of everything there whether you could live without it? Most of us could probably get rid of ninety percent of the stuff in our house and be just fine without it. In fact, we might find a huge burden lifted from us by giving it all away. As Mother Teresa said, “The less we have, the more we can give. The more we have, the less we give. There are no complications, and yet we complicate our lives so much, by so many additions.” Likewise, in the ethical and spiritual realm, we tend to complicate things, when it’s really quite simple: love God and love your neighbor. We sometimes use the word “simple” pejoratively, suggesting that someone who is simple is a bit dull, but perhaps we fail to realize that even the “simplest” among us can fulfill the requirements of being a good and godly person. And it may be that there is a special place in God’s heart for these simple souls.

telling Timothy that he is well known for his faith. God has chosen each of us to do something in his church.

You have been given spiritual gifts.

Some can work will with children, some with music, some teach classes, and some who work behind the scenes for no reason. Whatever you’ve called to do might not always be easy. There will be times when people don’t get along with others but we are all called to serve the Lord. He reminds us to pray for others.

Not just for fellow saints, we also need to pray for sinners and those in authority. Everyone needs our

prayers. God raises people up for different purposes. Petitions — things you need; prayers — a Godly thing; intersession — to pray for things for others; and praising — him for things he has done.

It is the will of God that everyone comes to the truth. God willingly sent his only Son to earth to die on a cross for the sins of the world.

He died for you and for me, all you have to do is call on His name and confess you are a sinner and ask forgiveness, then you can be saved.

Come join us at our next service.

Implementation of Comprehensive Plan outlined

By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press It is one thing to develop a Comprehensive City Plan, but it is a moot point if there is no thought given to the implementation of the outlined goals.

The Comprehensive Plan was presented before the council for consideration lists many proposals for the city, which are considered reasonable, feasible and extremely important to the welfare of the entire community, the plan states.

However, the value of the plan will be measured in terms of the degree of success which the community achieves in accomplishing these proposals, according to the plan itself.

The effectiveness of the plan will be directly related to the recognition of the

plan proposals by the council, city personnel and by the appointed boards and commissions of the city.

Implementation depends upon both private and public action. The city council has a continuing responsibility to see that the plan is kept alive as well as adjusting to conform with changing conditions, according to the plan.

A change in one phase of the plan will probably affect other parts of the plan, and therefore, consideration should be given to all implications before making a decision.

City administrative personnel and appointed boards and commissions will have the plan to guide them in decision making. Close cooperation between the council and various boards and commissions are essential to the proper administration of the plan, according to the plan.

NEWS/LOCALS

Carrollton, Illinois

The greatest number of decisions that affect urban development are made by citizens through private actions.

Therefore, the public must understand and support the plan. It is the intention of this plan to reflect the views of the community.

The first official action toward implementing the plan is the council’s adoption of the plan documents as the general statement of public policy on land development within the city.

This action formalizes the plan as the basic frame of reference on general development patterns over the next 10 to 20 years. Therefore, the plan becomes a tool for communicating the city’s landuse policy and for coordinating various individual decisions into a consistent set of actions to shape the city’s continued growth.

License

(Continued from A1) down the street, and if you want to buy, you go out and stop him. He’s not going to be going out beating on doors looking for customers.”

Martin said the person didn’t need the license until next year so it gives the city a chance to get its “ducks in a row” as far as getting the ordinance on the books.

The council approved the 2020-21 Motor Fuel Tax Resolution in the amount of $57,096.46.

“It is different this year because we are getting it on our fiscal year and not the calendar year,” Martin said. “In other words, it won’t run from January to January – it will run from May 1 to April 31 so it is a little bit higher this time that it has been in the past or will be in the future.”

Martin said he wants to do more sidewalks next year with the funds and wants to oil and chip Lorton, Rowe and Hammond streets near the new affordable housing units that have been built.

The council installing 1,200 more feet of four-inch gas mains within the city.

“We put about that much in last year, and we still have a few more phases to go after

this one,” Martin said. “Right now it is the old steel line, and we are replacing it with the plastic mains. Our engineers have said these steel lines have got to be replaced.”

The cost of the 1,200 feet of main is $31,700, and it will come out of the gas fund.

“Right now, we are able to do it from that fund,” Martin said. “It will take a while to get it built back up, but with winter coming on and people using more gas, it shouldn’t take too long before we built it up enough to do the next phase.”

The council also approved replacing anod beds at a cost of $6,900. Martin explained what they were.

“When we get our gas from Panhandle it comes through these anti-friction beds called anods,” he said. “We have to drill like 15 holes in the ground about two foot around and our gas engineers come in and put a tube in them and link them together.

Then we fill the holes back up. This hasn’t been done in 20 or 25 years so it was time they were replaced.”

It was approved to hold the Thanksgiving dinner on Nov. 19, and it will be catered by Brass Door this year.

Easy ways to volunteer and give back to your community

How one can give back to seniors in the community

The strongest communities tend to be those in which members make a concerted effort to give as much as they get. Giving back to one’s community can foster strong relationships with fellow residents and ensure that everyone, including the less fortunate, is in position to live happy, healthy lives.

Certain people in a community may be more vulnerable to issues that can adversely affect quality of life than others. For example, the National Institute on Aging notes that, as men and women age, many are alone more often than when they were younger, leaving them vulnerable to social isolation and loneliness. Such feelings can prove very harmful to their health, potentially contributing to problems such as depression, cognitive decline and heart disease.

Volunteering to help the aging members of one’s community is a great way to give back, and such efforts can prove rewarding for both seniors and the volunteers who lend them a hand. ‡ 3XOO DQ H[WUD FKDLU XS WR WKH GLQQHU WDEOH Many a meaningful connection has been made and maintained over the dinner table.

Breaking bread with a senior from your community is a great way to foster such connections and provide an avenue for social interaction for seniors. Seniors who live alone might not enjoy cooking for one each

night, but they might jump at the chance to eat dinner with a neighbor and even help prepare the meal. Invite a senior over once per week, encouraging them to share stories about their lives as well as how the community has developed over the years. ‡ +HOS VHQLRUV PDQDJH WKHLU ILQDQFHV Many seniors struggle to manage their finances, as laws regarding taxes and investing are subject to routine changes. A little help in this area can go a long way for seniors. Adults who want to help but don’t know where to begin can do the legwork for their aging neighbors. Contact agencies VXFK DV $$53 WR GHWHUPLQH LI WKHUH DUH DQ\ financial assistance programs that can help seniors effectively manage their money and take advantage of age-specific perks, such as programs that may help seniors lower their energy costs. ‡ 2IIHU WR KHOS DURXQG WKH KRXVH 6HQLRUV who reside in single-family homes may not be able to keep up with routine home maintenance. Neighbors who want to help can offer to mow the lawn, tend to the landscaping and tidy up inside. Keep an eye open for other issues, such as clogged gutters, that can be fixed easily but prove costly if they go ignored. +HOSLQJ DJLQJ QHLJKERUV LV D JUHDW ZD\ WR give back and build strong communities.

Millions of people across the globe volunteer every day.

Without the selfless efforts of volunteers, many charities would be forced to cease operations. In fact, a 2017 study from the charitable community membership organization Independent Sector estimated that the labor provided by volunteers is worth roughly $193 billion per year in the United States alone.

But volunteering can be as beneficial for volunteers as it can for the organizations they help. For example, the Mayo &OLQLF +HDOWK 6\VWHP QRWHV that research has indicated volunteering leads to lower rates of depression while providing individuals with a sense of purpose. Volunteering can be especially beneficial for adults RYHU DJH ZLWK WKH 0&+6 noting that older volunteers experience greater increases in life satisfaction and greater positive changes in their perceived health as a result of volunteering.

With so much to gain from volunteering, it’s no wonder that so many people across the globe volunteer. According to the United Nations Volunteers program, global estimates place the number of worldwide volunteers at 970 million.

That’s nearly three times the population of the United States and more than 26 times the population of Canada in 2018.

It’s never been easier to volunteer and begin helping your community. Adults and children who want to join the nearly one billion strong global volunteering community need not look far to get involved.

The Corporation for National Community Service notes that the following are some easy ways to volunteer in your community.

Q Serve meals at a local shelter or community kitchen.

Q Sign up to work as a tutor or mentor with a local afterschool program.

Q +HOS DGXOWV ILQG WKH ULJKW professional opportunities by hosting a rĂŠsumĂŠ writing/ review workshop and conducting practice interview sessions.

Q Work in conjuction with a local food pantry to organize a food donation drive.

Q Volunteer to help the environment by working with local, state, or national park services to beautify parks and/ or a local community garden.

Q Work with a local emergency response organization to produce and distribute disasterpreparedness kits.

Q +HOS IHOORZ FRPPXQLW\ members save money by collecting and sharing information about free tax-preparation services.

Q Read to students or seniors- contact a local community or senior center.

Q Volunteer at an animal shelter.

When it comes to volunteering, the opportunities are as endless as the benefits of giving back to your community.

Chili, pumpkins get center stage in Greenfield

Sherry Fraley/Greene Prairie Press

Sherry Fraley/Greene Prairie Press

The GFEE(Greenfield Foundation for Education Excellence) hosted another wonderful Chili Cook Off on the square of Greenfield,Saturday, October 19. There is always a mystery cook that wears a disguise while stirring up their chili and a prize is given to the person who figures out the mystery. As the day goes on, people are encouraged to leave a clue that they think will help identify the cook. Here, Jack Range of Greenfield is just trying to figure out if getting really close to a wolf is a good idea at all. It turns out that Corey Hudson wasn’t a bad wolf after all, but was a pretty good chili cook.

The Greenfield FFA provided pumpkin painting for the children during the GFEE Chili Cook Off in Greenfield. Even the royals got involved in painting with Jade Range, Little Miss Greene County Fair, on left and Braleigh Winters, Little Miss Greenfield creating some works of art.

Carrollton man arrested on drug possession charge

By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press Less than a month before a scheduled bench trial in Greene County on a charge of arson, a Carrollton man has been charged in Calhoun County with possession of a controlled substance, a Class 4 Felony.

Joseph Angle, 34, was arrested by Calhoun County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Deputy Nate Alderfer after a traffic stop on Oct. 21 for a signal violation.

Upon further investigation, Alderfer located a substance in the vehicle which, based on his training and experience in drug investigations, he believed to be Fentanyl.

Angle was out on a recognizance bond from a Greene County incident in October

Free counseling offered during Medicare open enrollment The Illinois Department on Agingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (IDoA) Senior Health Insurance Program (SHIP) is reminding seniors of the free counseling assistance available to Medicare-eligible individuals and their caregivers during the annual Medicare Open Enrollment occurring October 15th through December 7th.

During open enrollment, eligible adults can adjust Medicare Advantage or Medicare prescription drug coverage, move from original Medicare to a Medicare Advantage plan - or vice versa - switch between Medicare Advantage plans, join a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan, or switch or drop existing drug plans without penalty; all of which can be overwhelming and confusing.

There are 2,232,296 beneficiaries in Illinois enrolled in Medicare, and the average monthly Medicare Advantage premium changed from $20.17 in 2019 to $18.49 in 2020. With over
