Mid American Growers to provide products that will stock store JAYCE EUSTICE AND KIM SHUTE news@putnamcountyrecord.com

UTICA — The CBD Joint, 723 South Clark St. in Utica, held their ribbon cutting Tuesday, April 20, to mark the grand opening of the Illinois Valley’s newest CBD location. The CBD Joint has partnered with locally operated Mid-American Growers to offer locally grown hemp and hemp-related products. Mid-American Growers operates out of Granville and will carry many of the products located at the CBD Joint. “The CBD industry is growing,“ Jay Fentress, director of sales and marketing for Mid American Growers said. “We’re proud to grow in that industry and in Granville. And now we’re excited to offer our retail line up to our neighbors, right in our community.” The CBD Joint sells glassware, gummies, chocolates, pens, among other items. Aside from consumables, the store also sells soaps, bath bombs, oils, creams and pet treats for anxious dogs. Co-owners Holly Disch and Gary Denyes were excited to get started in Utica and said the reception they’ve

They know that times are changing and this is just the next step in bringing more people into the

community.” The owners were joined by members of the Illinois Valley Area Chamber of Commerce, Utica village officials and representatives from Mid-American Growers to cut the ribbon and open the doors to Utica’s newest business.

Illinois nurses could soon have a say in staffing levels Illinois nurses who work at hospitals could soon have a voice in the determination of appropriate staffing levels after legislation filed by Senate Republican Deputy Leader Sue Rezin (R-Morris). The item recently passed the Illinois Senate. “This legislation is a bipartisan proposal that started as an initiative of the American Nurses Association-Illinois and the Illinois Health and Hospital Association,” Rezin said. “The Nurse Staffing Improvement Act provides a meaningful opportunity for our state to improve a patient’s quality of care and safety by ensuring that the people who are directly tasked with their care have a say in the staffing levels.” Senate Bill 2153 would improve the quality of care for patients and address

Illinois’ nursing shortage by: Strengthening the already existing Nursing Care Committees at hospitals by allowing them to prepare a staffing plan and requiring hospitals to explain their reasoning for not adopting the plan; Requiring the Nursing Care Committee to meet at least six times a year and increasing the number of direct care nurses on the committee to at least 55%; Requiring the Nursing Care Committee to issue an annual report to the hospital’s governing board, including recommendations for future changes to nurse staffing; Imposing fines on hospitals that do not comply with the written staffing plan; Depositing collected fines into the

Hospital Licensure Fund in order support nursing scholarships; Adding $2 million, provided by hospitals, to the Hospital Licensure Fund from academic years 2021-2022 through 2024-2025; Providing a 2.5% income tax credits for nurse educators. “We believe the Nurse Staffing Improvement Act is a great move in the right direction to solidifying the exceptional care registered nurses provide to their patients in Illinois,” said Morris Hospital Vice President of Patient Care Services Kim Landers in a press release. “Registered nurses understand and know their patients’ acuity better than anyone.” Senate Bill 2153 passed with zero no votes and now heads to the House for further consideration.

PRINCETON

Camp 56 is now open for registration

PRINCETON — Learning Stage, the education committee of Princeton Theatre Group, is offering Camp 56, a two-week summer day camp for youth entering third grade through 2021 graduating seniors. Participants will have the opportunity to experience and take part in live performances, while immersing themselves in the many aspects of producing a show. The camp is held in cooperation with Festival 56, which this summer marks its 18th season of bringing outstanding professional theater to local audiences. Camp 56 itself is returning for its 11th consecutive year of providing a theater-based camp for young people. The camp will be held weekdays from June 21 to July 2 at the Hampshire Colony Church. Camp director and Festival 56 alum Frank Monier will engage campers in a series of fun-filled activities including song, dance, makeup, costuming, trips to the Festival sets and visits with cast and crew. The culmination of the camp experience will be an onstage

appearance — as part of the chorus ensemble — in several performances of the Festival 56 production of “Godspell.” The co-director will be an AmeriCorps volunteer providing supporting and leadership roles with the campers and at other Festival 56 venues. The camp fee is $100 per child. Need-based scholarships are available as are family discounts. Registration forms can be accessed online at www.festival56.com/education. Interested persons may also email LearningStage@festival56.com. Completed registrations, along with the registration fee, should be mailed to the Festival box office at 316 S. Main St., Princeton, IL 61356. Camp 56 is grateful to its sponsors, including the Sun Foundation’s “Community Arts Access Regranting Program,” which is funded by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council, a state agency, with funds from the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency, and local businesses and individuals, Church Women United and Bob Glaser.

Watch where you park: State will enforce prohibited parking at Starved Rock, Matthiessen

Citation fee is $164; tow fee is about $300 for violators State agencies are cracking down on parking violations at Starved Rock and Matthiessen state parks. Starved Rock and Matthiessen state parks receive about two million visitors annually. The large volume of visitors has resulted in vehicles being parked in “no parking tow-away” zones located along Route 178 and Route 71, adjacent to the parks. The problem is so pervasive it has become a safety issue to pedestrians and motorists. The illegal parking has also made it difficult for first responders to access the area in emergency situations. Officials with Illinois Department of Natural Resources, Illinois Department of Transportation and Illinois State Police have discussed this issue and have agreed education and enforcement are both necessary to resolve this problem. Visitors to the parks should be aware of areas marked as “no parking tow-away” zones and are advised parking regulations in those areas will be strictly enforced. While “no parking tow-away” zones are clearly marked, IDOT will be providing additional signage to further denote the zones. In addition to the zones, parking is prohibited upon any bridge or other elevated structure, or within 30 feet upon the approach to any stop sign, yield sign, or traffic control signal located at the side of the roadway. The goal of this educational program is voluntary compliance, and the hope of all partners is no vehicles will have to be towed. ISP Troopers will be dedicated to patrol duties along Routes 178 and 71 in the zones, and tow trucks will be on site. Vehicles found in violation of the zones will be immediately towed. Citations may also be issued to the owners of vehicles who are found illegally parked. A citation for parking where prohibited is $164 and is considered a moving violation. The estimated fee for towing a vehicle from the area to an area tow yard is about $300. For those planning a trip to Starved Rock State Park, they are encouraged to follow and regularly check the Facebook pages for Starved Rock State Park, IDNR, and Starved Rock Lodge, which provide parking capacity updates and notification when the

Annual Water Quality Report for the period of January 1 to December 31, 2020 This report is intended to provide you with important information about your drinking water and the efforts made by the water system to provide safe drinking water. The source of drinking water used by MARK is Ground Water For more information regarding this report contact: Name: Michael Holmes Phone: (815) 343-9942 Este informe contiene información muy importante sobre el agua que usted bebe.

Source Water Information Source Water Name Type of Water WELL 1 (01501) GW WELL 2 (01502) GW WELL 4 (01928) GW

The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally-occurring minerals and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity. Contaminants that may be present in source water include: - Microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations, and wildlife. - Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, which can be naturally-occurring or result from urban storm water runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farming. - Pesticides and herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban storm water runoff, and residential uses. - Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban storm water runoff, and septic systems. - Radioactive contaminants, which can be naturallyoccurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.

Source Water Assessment We want our valued customers to be informed about their water quality. If you would like to learn more, please feel welcome to attend any of our regularly scheduled meetings. The source water assessment for our supply has been completed by the Illinois EPA. If you would like a copy of this information, please stop by City Hall or call our water operator at (815) 343-9942 To view a summary version of the completed source Water Assessments, including: Importance of Source Water; Susceptibility to Contamination Determination; and documentation/recommendation of Source Water Protection Efforts, you may access the Illinois EPA website at http://www.epa.state.il.us/cgi-bin/wp/ swap-fact-sheets.pl.

Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the EPAs Safe Drinking Water Hotline at (800) 426-4791. In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, EPA prescribes regulations which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. FDA regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health. Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791). If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. We cannot control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by ﬂushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your water tested. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.

Source of Water: MARKThe Illinois EPA does not consider the source water of this facility to be susceptible to IOC, voe, or SOC contamination. This determination is based on a number of criteria including: the land-use activities in the recharge area of the wells, the available hydrogeologic data, monitoring conducted at the wells, and monitoring conducted at the entry point to the distribution system.

2019 Regulated Contaminants Detected

Lead and Copper Deﬁnitions: Action Level Goal (ALG): The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. ALGs allow for a margin of safety.

Restaurant reviews

MarkAllen’s serves up ‘serious food and fun’ If you’ve got a hankering for fancy American dishes, MarkAllen’s in Peru is where you need to go. They market themselves as “serious food, serious fun,” and the chef knows how to spice up a simple dish, leaving you longing for more. Plus, the colorful art and decor make a night out a fun experience. Now is the time to check them out. MarkAllen’s recently closed briefly to renovate and update the place for a fresh, new look. And the March curbside-pickup menu makes ordering dinner during the pandemic a breeze. This month’s list offers one starter, the Buffalo cauliflower. Also featured are a spicy chicken sandwich or a burger. The pasta option is the cavatappi Alfredo, and the seafood pick is pan-seared trigger fish. Also highlighted are three options for a “dinner for two” special on the March menu, along with added temptations. But know that if nothing there strikes your fancy, the full menu is still available to order from. A few friends and I recently decided to give MarkAllen’s a try after the restaurant reopened earlier this month following the renovations. Intrigued with the new curbside menu, I opted for the cavatappi Alfredo, which came with a side salad. Let me just say, if you like bacon, you’ll love this corkscrew noodle dish. The pasta is prepared with bacon in a rich, creamy Alfredo sauce with various cheeses. That bacon touch really made the pasta dish stand out from Alfredo dishes I’ve tried in the past. You also could add chicken or shrimp. A companion ordered the baby back barbecue pork ribs and raved about how delicious the spicy barbecue sauce was. Be careful, if you don’t like or can’t handle spicy, you might want to ask for the sauce on the side.

MarkAllen’s American Kitchen in Peru is on the corner of Peoria and 10th streets. The restaurant is known for fine food and drink. Shaw Media photos

LEFT: The cavatappi Alfredo is packed with plenty of cheese and bacon. RIGHT: Watch out for the spicy kick to the tasty barbecue sauce that comes on the Baby Back BBQ Pork Ribs. The dish is pictured here with a baked potato side. Luckily, our diner is all about the spice, and commented it was the sauce that made the juicy, grilled ribs special. The order came with a fresh side salad and choice of potato. Our third diner was looking for something a little lighter, and ordered a starter, the Crispy Chicken Pizza, about the size of a personal

pizza. The unique crust is fried and crispy. It came layered with grilled Cajun chicken, cheese, guacamole and sour cream. The pizza made a filling entree for our diner, but also would be a great starter for a party of two, three or four. The pizza is packed with plenty of flavor from the

cheese and Cajun spices, plus the crispy crust made this a favorite at the table. One thing to mention is that every meal comes with fresh, hot sopapillas. If you eat them right when they’re hot, they melt in your mouth. The restaurant also offers dine-in service and has a patio. If you’re looking for a

fun, laid-back yet elevated experience, MarkAllen’s is the place to try. • The Mystery Diner is an employee at Shaw Media. The diner’s identity is not revealed to the restaurant staff before or during the meal. If the Mystery Diner cannot recommend the establishment, we will not publish a story.
