Board says no to speed humps
‘Shrek: The Musical’ opens Halloween weekend PM&L Theatre’s production of “Shrek: The Musical” will open Oct. 30. The Tony Awardwinning musical is based on the popular Dreamworks movie that tells the story of a cranky ogre named Shrek (played by Matt Archibald) who wakes up to discover a group of banished fairy tale characters in his swamp. He finds himself on an epic quest – alongside a Donkey (Gary Luz) that won’t stop talking – to rescue the temperamental Princess Fiona (Michele MacLennan) for Lord Farquaad (Michael Kavka), a man whose stature is in short supply. The play is based on the book and lyrics by David Lindsay-Abair, and music by Jeanine Tesori. It is directed by Donna Badtke, whose recent PM&L directing credits include Fiddler on the Roof and Pride and Prejudice. Performance dates for “Shrek: The Musical” are Fridays and Saturdays, Oct. 30, 31, Nov. 6, 7, 13, and 14 at 8 p.m., and Sundays, Nov. 1, 8, and 15 at 2:30 p.m. Ticket are $18 for adults and $15 for

MONSTER OF A SALE!
Despite requests from residents living on Hillside and Harden streets and the St. Stephen Lutheran Church, the Antioch Village Board said no to speed humps at its Oct. 5 meeting. Instead, the solution recommended by Village Administrator Jim Keim, is to stripe the road. The belief is by narrowing the lanes; drivers will be more uncomfortable and use highways 173 and 59 instead. This type of traffic calming measure has worked elsewhere. Depot Street was striped and received a bike lane some time ago and that was deemed a success by village officials. In a post-meeting interview, Village Board Trustee Ed Macek – a proponent of traffic humps – said police have also patrolled Depot more frequently. The police have patrolled Hillside for the past two weeks and have written 60 speeding tickets.
An earlier traffic study showed that 1,100 cars a day pass through Hillside and Harden, which is about 500 yards long. Additional information presented at the meeting showed that more than 10 crashes per year occur at the intersections of Hillside and 59 and Hillside and 173. The cost of putting in traffic humps and striping is $1,200 for each street. One concern regarding the traffic humps is that they might interfere with snow removal.
Fire committee In a separate matter, the board approved a restructuring of the purpose and renaming of the joint public safety committee as the Joint Fire Committee. This committee has voting members from both the fire district and the Village Board with advisory members from Antioch Township. It is tasked with acting as a liaison between the village,
