By BETH ZUMWALT Pike Press With more and more restrictions, either mandated or by choice, COVID-19 is forcing people to be more internet savvy.

Healthcare services have been utilizing telehealth programs where a doctor and patient can converse online.

“We used it a lot in the beginning of the COVID outbreak,” Dr. Ayca Raif, MD, Quincy Medical Group.

“Then as the situation went on and Pike County didn’t have many cases, people got braver and started coming into the office. Now that cases are on the rise, we are seeing more people wanting the teleheath program.”

Raif said telehealth implies a video, but sometimes a phone call is all that is needed.

“I can hear their breathing and ask questions,” she said. “Not all service is as good as others. We have had issues with weak or no service. But almost everybody has a phone.”

Raif said telehealth has saved medical establishments from contamination.

“If someone calls and says they are experiencing symptoms, they can come to the office, stay in their car, and we we will have a nurse gown up and go out to to the testing in the car,” Raif said.

Schools are finding out first hand about areas with no service in the county. With the threat of having to go to remote learning with little or no notice, districts are trying to be proactive.

“It’s not a big problem for us,” Ron Edwards of Pleasant Hill School District, said. “Less than five percent of our families don’t have internet for one reason or another and most of that is geographical. We have some hills and hollows that it takes days for a postcard to get through.”

Edwards said the majority of the families in his district have chosen in-school learning, but understands that the schools could be shut down at a moment’s notice as they were last spring.

Dr. Carol Kilver, superintendent of Pikeland Unit 10, said remote learning has played a role in the decision for the 2020-2021 school year.

“We realized we somehow had to provide the service,” she said. “We wanted to meet people where they were.”

Kilver said one option is to have students do their work on a computer or tablet, and then when Wi-Fi is available, they can download their assignments to the teacher.

“They can sit in the car in the school parking lot or near any facility that offers public Wi-Fi,” Kilver said. “A lot of businesses have made that available for students.”

She also said the school has looked into hot spot devices that could be loaned out like a library book.

“We are also looking at using some of our relief money to place more towers in the areas that are underserved,” she said.

Jessica Funk, superintendent at Western, says the district purchased 46 hot spot devices last spring and handed them all out. This year, the school has issued 12.

“More students are opting for in-person learning,” she said. “I imagine if we have to go to remote learning, we will hand them all out.”

Funk said about 10-15 percent of Western’s K-8 students are opting for remote learning.

“Our high school students have the option of remote learning or using our open learning lab,” she said.

“There are quite a few of them that come in, do their work and leave.”

Blake Roderick, executive secretary of the Pike County Farm Bureau, said Illinois Rural Electric is

the main provider of internet service in the rural areas.

“But quality is an issue,” he said. “High speed internet is needed to upload or download documents. Speed is important.”

The lack of high speed internet has not escaped lawmakers.

Signed into law March 27, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act allocates more than $500 million to help rural communities connect to broadband internet.

The CARES Act included $100 million for USDA’s Rural Utility Service’s Reconnect Pilot Program, which provides grants for the construction, improvement or acquisition of facilities and equipment needed to provide broadband service in eligible rural areas. The CARES Act also increases RUS’ Distance Learning, Telemedicine and Broadband Program funding by $25 million, allowing the agency to provide additional grants to support rural communities’ access to telecommunications-enabled information, audio and video equipment.

To support the growing need for telehealth services due to the COVID-19 emergency, the CARES Act also provided the Federal Communications Commission with $200 million for its COVID-19 Telehealth Program. The program supports eligible health care providers responding to COVID-19 by providing telecommunications services, information services and the devices necessary to enable telehealth services.

Additionally, the measure set aside $180 million from the $127 billion increase in funding for the Department of Health and Human Services’ Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund to expand services and capacity for rural hospitals, including telehealth.

No timeline has been provided for when the implementation of the service will begin.

Jeremy Oshner Executive director, TRRCPO According to Natalie Roseberry, who sits on the Two Rivers Regional Council of Public Officials, the application process is easy.

Once you have determined if you meet the income threshold, can prove you suffered a loss of income due to COVID-19 and missed a rent payment on or after March 1, you can apply.

“Go to www.era.idha.org and enter your name, e-mail, zip code and household income,” Roseberry said. “The next step is enter information about your household, landlord and rent.”

photo ID will need to be uploaded to the site.

“If the address on the ID does not match the application, proof of a current address must be uploaded,” she said. “You must click the finish button to submit the application.”

Also included on the www.era.ihda.org site is a list of agencies and contact information to assist with the application process.

For this area, it is Two Rivers Regional Council of Public Officials, 107 N. 3rd Street, Quincy, 217-221-6236.

Once the tenant completes the application, the landlord must also provide information such as a tenant lease, tax bill or deed, tenant ledger, rent roll, five-day notice e-mail or other proof of rent past due. There is also a question portion, and landlords will have to provide some financial information.

“Funds are limited,” Jeremy Oshner, executive director of the TRRCPO, said. “We have had many applicants, but there are some limited spots still available.”

Oshner said applicants will be chosen at random, once it is determined they qualify for the assistance. TRRCPO has nothing to do with the selection process or the distribution of the money.

“We are only here to help with the application process,” he said.

Megan Daniel, who manages approximately 60 rental properties in Pittsfield and the surrounding area, said her tenants have been able to keep up with their rent, and she only knows of one who is without a job since the pandemic hit.

There is a $5,000 cap per application.

Pleasant Hill board approves 2020 reopening plan

by DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press Pleasant Hill’s school board approved the district’s reopening plan and remote learning plan at the group’s Monday, Aug. 10 meeting.

Board members also granted superintendent Ron Edwards discretion to move from in-person classroom teaching to remote learning without holding an additional board meeting. “Should the situation deteriorate, we can move to remote learning without additional board action,�

Edwards said.

Edwards also indicated that the district would be scheduling trial remote learning days early in the school year to help students, parents, and staff better navigate the district’s online learning platform and to identify any issues with the remote learning system. Pleasant Hill will open the school year teaching students in-person from 8:15 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.

The board approved a $100,000 inter-fund loan from the district’s working cash fund to the education fund and a $15,000 loan from working cash to the operations maintenance fund.

Edwards said that these loans are routinely approved at this time of year, due to state funding not being released in July and due to the district not having access to local tax dollars yet.

In the superintendent’s administrative report, Edwards praised Pleasant Hill’s administrative team and the school’s faculty and staff members for working through the summer to prepare for the upcoming school year.

Edwards reported that the district had received a LEAD grant, allowing for the purchase of 55 touchscreen Chromebooks for $18,000. “The touchscreens are more appropriate for our youngest learners,� Edwards said.

According to Edwards the district had also applied for an Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) digital equity grant to purchase 55 additional touchscreen Chromebooks and to pay for Wi-Fi hot spots for students without internet access at home.

Superintendent Edwards went on to report that the district had 800 face shields, 3,500 face masks, rubber gloves and that staff were increasing sanitation measures and that social distancing is being enforced at the schools.

In addition, Edwards said that replacement of all of the district’s IT network wiring was nearly complete. The work is intended to improve internet access throughout the school campus.

Board members also approved a Memorandum of Understanding with the district’s teachers union, which will allow the district and union to renegotiate current terms in the event that teacher working conditions are significantly altered by COVID-19.

In closed session, board members approved the following hires: Q Jennifer Palmer - first grade teacher, Q Pamela Roach - paraprofessional, Q Deanna Angelly - paraprofessional, Q Chastity Moore - paraprofessional, Q Michele Niffen - paraprofessional, Q Amanda Pankratz - paraprofessional.

PCHD releases food establishment inspection info

By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press The Pike County Health Department (PCHD) recently released findings from routine health inspections of Pike County food service businesses from the months of March, June and July.

Inspections were not conducted during April and May, due to COVID19 shutdowns and social distancing guidelines from the state. “We decided it would make sense to not conduct inspections while the restaurants were only open for take out,� PCHD Environmental Health Director Payton Dean said. “We waited until they were back open for dine in to start making inspections again.�

Businesses, according to Dean, fall into one of three risk categories, based on the type of foods served as well as the types of patrons served.

Risk level one is the highest level of risk. Most full service, sit-down restaurants fall into this category. Schools and nursing homes also fall into category one, because they serve children and the elderly who may be immu-

nologically compromised.

Risk level two businesses are quick service businesses that cook only to order and do not store prepared foods for later use.

Some fast food establishments, bars, gas stations, and concessions operations fall under this category.

Risk level three business sell packaged readyto-eat foods or store foods.

Several gas stations and food pantries fall under category three.

According to Dean, higher risk businesses are inspected more frequently

by PCHD. “We inspect all level one businesses at least twice per year,� Dean said. “We inspect levels two and three once per year. We inspect some more frequently. It depends on the type of business.�

Local contractor awarded Griggsville water line work

By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press At the Wednesday, Aug. 5 Griggsville city council meeting, it was decided that the next phase of Griggsville’s ongoing work to replace the city’s water lines will be conducted

by Griggsville’s B-K Electric/ Two Rivers Plumbing.

The company submitted the lower of two bids received by the city.

B-K/Two Rivers submitted a bid of $193,712. The only other bid received by the city was from Busy Bee Contractors in the amount of $356,020. Bids were due to the city by July 15.

The next phase of the work will reportedly start in a matter of weeks. “We split the project into fourths,� Griggsville mayor Kent Goewey said. “This will be the southeast quarter of town. I’m hoping it will start at the end of August or in September.�

According to Goewey, efforts will be made to reduce the disruptiveness of the next phase of the water line replacement — minimizing street closures and utility interruptions. “We’re looking at boring part of it,� Goewey said.

City council members also discussed the issue of the use of side-by-sides on Griggsville’s

streets.

Council members reported that an ordinance is being drafted to regulate ATV use within Griggsville’s city limits.

Mayor Goewey reports that the ordinance will limit the use of side-by-sides and golf carts to drivers 16 years and older, and it will require specific safety equipment like turn signals, windshields, etc. “It shouldn’t be any different than operating a car,�

Goewey said.

According to Griggsville city clerk Linda Brawdy, ATV use has increased in the community since the onset of the COVID-19 school/business closures.

In addition, council members discussed the possibility of restricting or eliminating some parking on the north side of Quincy Street in front of Teddy’s Bar and Grill in an effort to improve visibility on the street and improve safety.

In other business, the council approved July council meeting minutes, and paid the city’s bills for the month.

Finally, following closed session, the council approved hiring Jacksonville lawyer H. Allen Yow to serve as Griggsville’s city attorney.

Yow replaces Daniel Beard.

The meeting, which had started at 7 p.m., was adjourned at 7:30 p.m.

July Risk Category 1 P.A.M.S. - 0 violations, Watts Up Cafe - 2 violations (0 violations on recheck), Hilltop - 0 violations, Carl’s Cardinal Inn - 1 violation, Griggsville Estates - 2 violations (0 violations on recheck), Maya Mexican Restaurant

PICKINGS FROM PIKE’S PAST 100 YEARS AGO: CONGRESSMAN STRANDED IN COLD RUN CREEK

125 Years Ago Aug 25, 1870 The M. E. Church at Rockport will be dedicated Sunday, Sept. 4. Services at 11 a.m., basket dinner at 1 p.m.

We learn from Prof. Pike that the fall session of the Pittsfield schools will commence about the 14th of Sept. The directors have procured the furniture to finish the large hall, hitherto unfinished and it will be in readiness by the time school opens to accommodate the few scholars in the high school. Now they can justly boast of not only having one of the finest school buildings in the state, but also one of the best furnished.

By letter from Perry, we are informed that the “little unpleasantness� relative to the post office, has for the present been settled. On the 18th, Mrs. Fifield was inducted as post master, “amid the firing of cannons and cheers from the multitude.� Well, may the Perryites say, “Let us have peace.�

The new steam pump ordered by the mayor and city council has arrived, and is being placed in position in the well dug in the creek bottom by the city for the purpose of testing the water supply.

Goodin farm on the Pleasant Hill road, they noticed the water was pretty high. Their driver thought he could make it, but the car stalled in the middle of the creek, and they had to wade to shore. Their suitcases were washed down the creek and have not yet been found. The auto suffered

much damage, and is being repaired at the Zimmerman garage.

The assessor for Pike County now shows 2,209 autos in Pike County, valued at $762,692. The number of mules in the county is slightly more at 2,349.

County Carpet Center at the corner of Jackson and Adams streets across from the Catholic Church.

25 Years Ago Aug. 23, 1995 Construction on Pittsfield’s prison work camp may start in October this year, instead of 1996, because of “truth in sentencing� legislation signed Sunday by Gov. Jim Edgar.

Pittsfield has decided to sell its “hat factory� property at 102 Williams Industrial Drive, near the American Legion building west of town. It was called the hat factory because a hat-making business moved into the building in March, 1982.

First Step Nursery School has a new address at 500 N. Memorial, the former Owens Grocery Store.

The Curry’s are thankful for such a great church family to have raised their family in, and to be a part of, in their ‘golden’ years. Receiving the first ever Legacy award seems almost ‘over the top’ for them, and they feel grateful and humbled by it all.
