Budget shortfall at village hall $1.6M deficit forecast, four months into fiscal year By THOMAS VOGEL Staff Reporter

ALEXA ROGALS/Staff Photographer

BACK IN SESSION: Venny Cordero, 7, of Chicago, tries to jump over a moving log during a game on Friday, Aug. 18, at the Proviso Back To School Bash at the D209 District Office in Forest Park. See more photos on page 6.

Forest Park village administrators and elected officials are trying to close a roughly $1.6 million deficit in the recently passed appropriations ordinance and are working to finalize a budget document about four months into the fiscal year, which began May 1. A dozen or so village staff and elected officials, including Mayor Anthony Calderone, Village Administrator Tim Gillian and Finance Director Letitia Olmsted, along with the village council, met Aug. 17 for a budget workshop at village hall. They plan on meeting again on Aug. 31, and village staff, according to Gillian, has been tasked with re-examining their departments to look for further expenses to trim. According to an operating funds summary document given to the Review by Gillian, the village is forecasting $26,441,256 in total revenues and $28,097,645 in total expenditures. “I first want to bring some clarity to the term ‘deficit’ because this is our proposed budget, internal budget.

Dr Clevs shutters dental practice after 54 years Dr . Longtime Forest Park dentist heads into retirement

After taking care of teeth for three generations of Forest Parkers, Dr. Arnold Clevs and his wife, Batia, shuttered

their dentistry practice in the little brick building at 334 Circle at the end of June. Clevs began teaching and doing research at the University of Illinois Chicago in 1954, after finishing a two-year commitment as an Air Force dentist. He was happy at the uni-

Sunning (and mooning) up on the roof

very 99 years or so, I get a really great newspaper assignment. On Monday, my job was to cover an eclipse party on the roof of Urban Pioneer Group, 7503 Madison. I was already looking forward to the beer, BBQ and the moon blocking out the sun. But the UPG party exceeded my fevered imagination. For those unfamiliar with UPG, it offers a wide range of activities, including woodworking, sausage-making and other Old World skills. Proprietor Tom Kunkel says it’s a place for “people who share a passion for capturing culture.” It was his idea to host a party on a Monday afternoon and see who showed up. He was not alone in this enterprise. Exit Strategy provided a keg of Dougan’s Brown and Scratch served a specialty drink dubbed the Eclipse. Their mad scientist/ mixologist Becci Visconti came up with the concoction. She froze Welch’s grape juice in water balloons to create perfect half-moons. Guests simply added their favorite booze. As the juice melted, their drinks got darker. Party-goers, though, can’t live on alcohol alone. Tom Guidice, founder of Grateful BBQ, grilled 50 pounds of homemade sausage, including chicken, hot Italian and pork brisket. He also smoked 12 slabs of mouth-watering ribs, slathered with his homemade sauce. One admirer, Cristina Claudio, said Tom changes his sauce every

time and that his Eclipse sauce was the best of all time. Meanwhile, Timothy Curran entertained the 40-plus guests with apropos tunes on the keyboard. These included “Moondance,” “Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me,” and “Bad Moon on the Rise.” The bad moon was definitely doing its thing, as guests gazed skyward through their protective glasses. Even cameras required protection, which is why Werner Meier had a protective cover over his lens, as he photographed the phenomenon. Werner is friends with Kunkel’s family and “likes to do silly things like this.” The silliness also appealed to Scratch owner, Patrick O’Brien and Wire’s Chris Neville. Chris had his wife and twin daughters there, with Guinevere cartwheeling across the roof. It was a party for all ages and every walk of life. Jane Maxfield was starting first grade in two days, while two nurses from Loyola got in on the fun. Stephanie Spangler’s boyfriend knows UPG through its woodworking program, and Laura Lopez tagged along. These were people who “appreciate all the world has to offer,” including otherworldly events like the solar eclipse. Guests gazed up as the moon inched its way across the sun. Cloud cover obscured

it and it didn’t get pitch dark, but this didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits. Mary Hart praised Kunkel as a visionary who knows how to have fun and make unique things. “He finds ways to partner, to help the community.” We were all creating community on the rooftop. It’s ironic that blotting out the life-giving sun caused so many Earthlings to celebrate. John Guidice was especially happy, waxing eloquent about his son’s BBQ business. Tom’s always been a foodie, landing a restaurant job on his 15th birthday. He has spent years and thousands of dollars on equipment to perfect his recipes. Grateful BBQ had a stand at Music Fest, which is how he met Kunkel. After the eclipse was over, the temperature rose on the roof and guests started to depart. Brendan Lynch, of Burke Beverage, stopped by to see if the beer he supplied was holding up. Tim played “Here Comes the Sun” and guests exclaimed about a new health food Guidice had created called “bacon jam.” This was a fun collection of folks who appreciated good food, music and drinks. They also knew better than to stare directly at the sun. Just think, the next total eclipse party is only 2,422 days away! ■ John Rice is a columnist/private detective, who has seen his business and family thrive in Forest Park. He thoroughly enjoys life in the village and still gets a thrill smelling Red Hots, watching softball and strolling through cemeteries.

Yearbook shifting to new location Madison Street business rebrands, moves down the block By THOMAS VOGEL Staff Reporter

Jef Anderson and Noel Eberline, owners of Forest Park’s Yearbook Studios, have leased a new space just off Madison Street, 408 Thomas Ave., as the pair continues to work on transitioning their business away from retail and into design. As reported by the Review, Yearbook, which opened in 2011, announced Aug. 10 it would be shutting down its Madison Street shop in early September. More and more, Anderson said, Yearbook’s design business, which includes work with other local shops like the Brown Cow Ice Cream Parlor, has been expanding. The need for additional design space, which in their current location is tucked away in the back of the store, was the impetus for the move. The new shop should be open around the end of September, Anderson said. “The intention was always to have a retail

design business combined with a studio,” Anderson said in an Aug. 19 phone call. “Over the course of the six years, the design stuff has just taken off in a way that neither one of us was expecting. The design focus just seems to be the way of the future for us. We decided it was time to say farewell to the store.” The Aug. 10 closing announcement quickly garnered lots of reaction, including dozens of comments on social media. The pair wanted to stay in Forest Park and cited a strong relationship with customers and the local business community. Anderson said they didn’t want to reconfigure the existing space. “We were looking for a brand new slate for us,” he said. “We wanted to start fresh.” The new space will be an open format with design desks and a large conference area, Anderson said. “We’ll be able to move around the furniture really easy,” he said. “I’m really excited about it. It’s just so much room.”

Jef Anderson and Noel Eberline. The Thomas Avenue location faces Constitution Court and was formerly a dry cleaners. “One thing we especially love that’s super unique it’s all open windows in the front and there’s light coming in from the back,” Eberline said of the new space. “It just feels super open and airy.” Yearbook’s current store manager, Anderson said, will most likely be “moving on.” But a junior designer who works with Anderson will be making the transition. Shedding the retail portion of the business will allow the group to be “more lean” and invest in design equipment, like computers. He said Yearbook hopes to continue some of its “signature events,” including its socalled “study halls” in the new space.

BUDGET

Next meeting set for Aug. 31 from page 1 accepted it. So we’re not currently operating on a deficit,” Calderone said Aug. 17. “We certainly are going to have to make some adjustments one way or the other so we can get everything in balance and hopefully not be operating in a deficit. Right now, this is just a forecast. It’s our job to get this at a point where we feel comfortable.” Illinois law requires non-home rule communities, like Forest Park, to pass an appropriations ordinance, which authorizes all municipal spending, by July 31, the end of the first fiscal quarter. The village council passed it on July 24. A village budget — wholly separate from the appropriations ordinance — is used more as a planning document for staff to help with day-to-day operations. Commissioners on July 24 authorized spending $27,976, 018 in the general fund, an increase of 4.8 percent over last year. The overall appropriation is $49,242,563, an increase of 4.6 percent over last year. As reported by the Review, Commissioner Dan Novak abstained from the unanimous vote, citing lack of transparency. Novak did not return a request for comment by press time. At the council meeting, Calderone acknowledged that budget workshops had not been held but said at least one would be scheduled. “We’ve been really slammed this year. Everybody has been. The ability to get all five of them and the entire staff here all together at one time has been a problem just to find the dates that will work,” Gillian said. “We just couldn’t pull it off this year. We couldn’t get everybody together.” Village Commissioner of Accounts and Finance Joseph Byrnes, in an Aug. 21 phone call, said “we probably should have met a bit earlier,” but he added that uncertainty at the state level left municipalities like Forest Park less able to forecast future funds. Adding to the squeeze, there is also a “collector’s fee” provision in the new state budget, passed in early July that skims off 2 percent of the municipal non-home rule sales tax revenue, leaving the village short about $40,000, according to Gillian. “If somebody wants to complain about the process, I’m the guy in charge of finances,” Byrnes said. “And I’ll take the hit for it.” At the Aug. 17 meeting, Gillian noted the budget process has been months in the making, and he and Olmstead have met with department heads, such as Police Chief Thomas Aftanas. But there is still work to be done. “We started totaling up the numbers again and we were

still faced with a significant deficit,” Gillian. “I know this sounds simple but I truly believe that our problem is more on the revenue side than the expense side. We looked at the expense side as hard as we can and there’s not much to cut there, as far as I can tell.” Gillian said the village in years past has “usually been under budget on the expense side.” Indeed, in the fiscal year that ended April 30, the village spent $24,869,239 after taking in $24,608,676 in revenue. So while expenditures exceeded revenue by $260,564 the village had budgeted roughly $28 million in expenditures. But certain costs are going up, including garbage hauling and dumping and water fees. At least as far back as 2012, even as rates have gone up for those essential services, the village has not passed those increased rates to residents, Gillian said. “We get an increase in those fees every year,” Gillian said. “By design, we’ve tried to absorb those as much as we can to make less of an impact on our residents. We didn’t want to make it a large burden.” At the Aug. 17 meeting, Gillian did suggest bringing those rates up. Olmstead agreed. “We need to find where we can generate new revenues,” Olmstead said. “I would be wholly in favor of bringing those up to where they should be,” Commissioner Tom Mannix said. Sales taxes, a large source of local revenue, are also down, Gillian added, mentioning Walmart, 1300 Desplaines Ave. But the soon-to-be-opened HOBO, 7630 W. Roosevelt Road, plus filling the now-vacant Ultra Foods location, could bring in more sales taxes for the village. No deal is imminent for the Ultra site, but there could be one coming, he said. The village could raise fees on building permits and business licenses, for instance, to bring in more funds. But as a non-home rule community, the village is limited there, too. Gillian said Forest Park’s fee structure should stay

comparable relative to neighboring towns to avoid scaring off potential businesses. “We still have to remain competitive with other communities,” he said. “It’s a balancing act.” At the Aug. 17 meeting, Mannix said he was wary of burdening Forest Park’s business community any further with higher fees and preferred “expanding the base” — in part, by exploring fees on new types of commerce, like ride sharing or Airbnb listings. Director of Public Safety Steve Glinke floated the idea of selling the village’s portion of the Altenheim property, which has been suggested as a potential site for a “mini-Ravinia” culture park. As reported by the Review, there is currently an ad-hoc village committee tasked with developing the culture park plan. “I think now is a realistic time to take a look at the Altenheim,” Glinke said. “We’re in the middle of a building boom. We could have a developer there in 120 days.” Others, including Calderone, said the one-time sale would be short-term “hot money” but would not help in the long run. “To sell the Altenheim for a one-time profit is not my idea of a solution.” Commissioner Joe Byrnes said. “I want that to be green space. I want to see that be a culture park.” Byrnes, in a phone interview Aug. 21, said the village must increase revenue and mentioned his proposed $25 per year sewer tax that would be added to water bills. That new funding, if approved, would be earmarked for sewer system infrastructure. Regardless of any new streams of revenue, which have to be vetted and go through an administrative and legal process, Calderone emphasized trimming expenses. “I think we’re not going to be able to avoid, you know, having to go through each department and look at each department and see if there’s any adjustments the commissioners at least want to talk about in terms of making reductions,” he said. “I mean it’s all great that we can talk about revenue sources, but there’s no way they can go into play next month. I mean, reality is, it’s probably going to be calendar year 2018.” “The revenue conversation, first quarter is already gone in fiscal year ’18; these revenue conversations and new ideas, realistically, are for ’19 and beyond,” Novak added. “Beyond revenue, the question now is the expense side.”

By TOM HOLMES Contributing Reporter

Ginanna Rubino will be a junior at the University of Iowa and is completing her second summer as a seasonal staff member with the West Suburban Special Recreation Association (WSSRA). Her job is to help teenagers and young adults with disabilities have fun. Some patrons of the Forest Park Aquatic Center may see Rubino with her WSSRA group regularly every summer for six weeks in June and July. The participants—as WSSRA refers to the people she works with—have diagnoses like autism, cerebral palsy, Asberger Syndrome, Downs Syndrome, ADHD, hyperactivity and learning disabilities. “When I first started college,” said Rubino, “I was trying to find a major that would make the most money, but now, after working at WSSRA, it’s so different.” Rubino referred to a participant we’ll call Sarah to explain why she is now studying therapeutic recreation—basically the same kind of work she does in her summer job. “Sarah is in a wheel chair, and she can’t use her hands or talk, but when she comes to the pool, she has the biggest smile and laughs alot. It’s just so amazing to be able to do the work I do for someone like that.” Nicole Walsh, the public relations coordinator for WSSRA, said that her organization serves about 165 participants in their summer camp program. They are divided into smaller groups with fifteen participants and eight staff in each “camp.” Besides going to the pool, activities include field trips, sports, crafts, camp games, music, art, talent shows, pot lucks, sensory games, and “plenty of things out in the community.” Even though the summer staff is there to help the participants have a good time, there are challenges. Suzzane Navarrete, who just completed her fourth summer with WSSRA, explained what it is like to work with people who are nonverbal, who can’t tell you what’s wrong or what they want. “You have to pay really close attention to their facial expressions,” Navarrete said. “A lot of it is trial and error.” Kelsey Ryan, a senior at the University of Illinois who is a special education major, said that each participant is different. One participant she works with, for example, has autism and likes to be on a strict schedule. “When he’s off schedule,” Ryan said, “he’ll flip out, so I have to find a way to help him, because we’re not going to do the same things every day. I do get frustrated with participants, but then I understand that they can’t help it.” “Sometimes camp is controlled chaos,” said Jack Devit, a junior special education major

If they see you getting frustrated they’re like ‘Oh yeah, I’m getting exactly what I want out of this guy,’ so you just gotta be cool. You can’t take things too personally. None of it is personal.” Shannon Kenny completed her sixth summer with WSSRA in July. She acknowledged that they get a lot of strange looks when they’re out in public with the participants. “One time,” she said, “I was at the zoo with a thirteen year old who thought we were going to the pool that day. He seemed to be saying ‘this is not what I signed up for’ and started screaming and throwing things. One parent was shooing her kids away, so I said ‘you don’t have to do that. He won’t hurt anybody. He’s just trying to work things out right now’.” Many of the summer staff members emphasized that even though they may work hard at times, they have a lot of fun with the participants. Devit admitted that five years ago when he started working at the summer camp, he was embarrassed by the participants not always behaving in ways that polite society deems acceptable, but over the years the participants have helped him loosen up.

Banned, then bloodied at the bar On Aug. 14 around 1:30 a.m. a Forest Park police officer was walking by Shortstop Lounge on the 7400 block of Madison Street and saw a 30-year-old man leave the bar with blood on his face. The man told the officer he was “jumped” inside the bar and was punched in the head by two 20-something men after being asked to leave the bar by the bartender. The injured man was transported to Rush Oak Park Hospital for treatment. The officer then talked with a bartender in the bar, who said the man had been previously “banned” for accosting staff with vulgar language. When he returned on Aug. 14, he was reportedly again asked to leave and then became “belligerent.” At that time, several “unknown” bar patrons punched him before leaving, the bartender said.

Burglary from motor vehicle Someone stole a handicap parking placard and loose change from a 2005 Chrysler Town and Country parked in a municipal lot near Marengo Avenue and Roosevelt Road. The burglary happened sometime between Aug. 11 and 12. The car’s 44-year-old owner did not call police until Aug. 14. Reason for the delay is unclear.

Motor vehicle theft

A 32-year-old woman told police she was walking on the 8200 block of Roosevelt Road on Aug. 17 around 1 p.m. when a 20-something man riding a dirt bike drove past her and “grabbed her butt, gripping it firmly.” The man then fled westbound. No suspect was found by police in a subsequent search of the area.

Residential burglary A 42-year-old resident of the 1200 block of

Israel Vences was charged with one count of felony driving without a license and registration after police curbed his 2000 Ford Explorer near Madison Street and 1st Avenue on Aug. 18 around 4 p.m. At the time of the traffic stop, Vences’ license was reportedly suspended for DUI.

Sex offender violation Police picked up a registered sex offender, a 42-year-old man, on Aug. 19 around 7 p.m. after officers curbed his 2008 black Ford near Harrison Street and Elgin Avenue and charged him with one count of “child sex offender in public park.” The police stopped the Ford after getting a call from a 27-year-old woman who reportedly saw the 42-year-old man grab “his son off the swing by his neck and [throw] him to the ground.” At the time of the alleged incident, the man was at the Park District of Forest Park, 7501 Harrison St. During the traffic stop, the man denied grabbing the boy by the neck but said he “removed his son from the swing in an effort to discipline him.” While talking to officers, the man’s wife arrived and also denied any “physical altercation” had happened. The caller said she did not witness the alleged incident herself and was only told about it by someone else. Police, having a “lack of evidence” and no witnesses and no signs of injury were going to release the 42-year-old man. But a name check revealed he was a registered sex offender. The man told police he was “under the impression he was no longer required to register as of May 2017.” The police report said he was mandated to register until 2027. These items were obtained from police reports filed by the Forest Park Police Department, Aug. 14-20, and represent a portion of the incidents to which police responded. Unless otherwise indicated, anybody named in these reports has only been charged with a crime. These cases have not been adjudicated.

from page 5 “Instead of trying to control and make them behave like they ‘should,’” he explained, “I just roll with them. I love coming to camp. You get to be kind of weird, and you get to do things with the kids. It’s just so fun.” All of the nine seasonal staff interviewed talked about how the participants had a big impact on them. “I’ve definitely learned to not take things for granted.” Kelsey Ryan’s sister, Katie, said, “When I came to work here, I expected the worst, but it really is not that difficult if you have patience, dedication and are willing to put in the hard work.” She focused on how satisfying seeing small changes in the participants can be. “It’s really rewarding to see a participant smile. That really makes my day. Any improvement, no matter how small, it still feels amazing.” Jada Sidney is a Forest Park resident who will be a senior at Walther High School. She said of her first summer working at WSSRA.

“Even though the participants and I are different on some levels, we get some things from each other.” Sidney said. “As I go on in life, I’m going to see people who are different, and I can understand them and talk to them. I love that about this work.” Gina Rubino doesn’t like the label disabled. “It doesn’t seem right to call them disabled, because there’s nothing wrong with them,” Rubino said. “They’re not disabled. It’s just that they do things differently. They can do everything we can do, just in a different way.” Jack Devit acknowledged that the vast majority of seasonal staff working for WSSRA and in his special education classes at Butler are women. “I might be one of three males in a class of thirty students so I’m used to it,” he began and added, “this doesn’t affect my masculine image at all. I’d like to see some of these macho guys get out here and do what we do.” He went on. “When you’re around coworkers who have the same mentality as you do, it doesn’t matter if it’s a guy or a girl. We are here with a common goal, and if you are good at what you do you get nothing but respect. Anyone who is questioning your masculinity and your profession probably has a little insecurity in themselves.”

■■Forest Park Police arrested two Chicago teenagers, a 16-year-old and a 17-year-old, on Aug. 15 after the pair reportedly stole a 2005 Buick from Thornton’s, 601 Harlem Ave., around 9 p.m. The keys were reportedly left inside the car at the time of the theft. After a car chase, the Buick was eventually found parked in a lot on the 300 block of Desplaines. The teenagers were stopped by police leaving the scene. Police found the Buick’s keys in the pants pocket of one of the teens. ■■Police arrested a 20-year-old Maywood man, an 18-year-old man, and another Maywood man after the threesome reportedly stole a 1998 Honda sedan on the morning of Aug. 16 in Bellwood. Police found the men around 6:30 p.m. on the 7300 block of Madison Street after they were allegedly involved in a crash with a Dodge truck. The three were detained by police.

Elgin told police, Aug. 18, that someone burglarized his apartment sometime between 9:30 a.m. and 10:30 p.m. on Aug. 17. Missing items reportedly include jewelry and watches worth at least $1,000. The man said he returned from work and found the front door deadbolt not working. He went into the apartment and noticed some luggage had been moved around, which he thought was “strange” but eventually fell asleep. He didn’t realize the jewelry was missing until the following morning. The front door showed no signs of tampering, according to the police report.

Legendary Lobstein house goes on the market 19th-century home rumored to be haunted, but owner says no By THOMAS VOGEL Staff Reporter

Forest Park’s historic Lobstein house is for sale. John George Lobstein, a Chicago lumber mill magnate and cabinet maker, built the Victorian on the 900 block of Elgin Avenue, in the 1890s for his second wife. The home’s current owner, Richard Bertucci runs a business in Chicago’s Lincoln Park neighborhood, and told the Review he’s downsizing and moving closer to work. The 5-bedroom, 2-bathroom, 4,100-square-foot home is listed for $699,000. “I have always pictured myself moving back to the city. I love Forest Park. I always have and I always will,” Bertucci said Aug. 18. “We’ve had some great parties here. I have a lot friends in Forest Park.” Bertucci bought the home in 1990 and said he’s enjoyed his 27 years there, but it was “time to move on.” Lobstein’s son, Theodore, ran a bank and real estate company in Forest Park, near Elgin and Roosevelt Road, Diane Grah, a member of the Forest Park Historical Society, wrote in an email to the Review on Aug. 18. Grah said Lobstein is buried at Forest Home Cemetery. “Local lore has the house as haunted. John’s second wife, Adaline, died in the home and many thought she haunted it,” Grah wrote. “Don’t think it’s true.” Bertucci concurred, adding he hasn’t experienced any other-worldy beings in his nearly three decades in the home. He did, however, mention that a few previous owners have said the home is haunted. A 2006 Chicago Tribune article details psychics visiting the home, neighbors seeing “shadows” in the attic and anecdotes of weird noises coming from inside the house. In his book, Haunted Chicago: Famous Phantoms, Sinister Sites, and Lingering Legends, Tom Ogden writes, “The true history of the Lobstein House — and that of its spirits — is almost impossible to pin down. Conflicting stories about the house and its first occupants remain.” History aside, Roz Byrne, the realtor who listed the home, said she’s excited to see such a unique home on the market. “Every time I’d drive by it, I’d just say, ‘Oh my god,’” Byrne said. “It’s just absolutely stunning.” She added that the home’s Forest Park location keeps the price lower than in neighboring communities. “If this house was just a few blocks east and in Oak Park, it’d be on the market for well over one million dollars.” The home’s historic significance and architectural beauty often attract passers-by. “It’s amazing,” Bertucci said. “All the time, just about every other day, you can look out the window and see cars are stopped. People are knocking on the door, asking to come in.” Bertucci says he doesn’t mind the attention. “I take it as a compliment, I really do.”

Rooting Out Why Fall is a Great Time to Plant Once again this year, as predictably as the change of seasons, I am being peppered with familiar late-summer inquiries: “Is it too late to plant? Should we wait until next spring?” Those questions allow me to dispel the misconception that if you do any planting in the fall, there will not be enough time for the plants to establish and they will suffer. In fact, fall is considered the best Scott time for planting. McAdam Jr. Here’s why: The root system does not go dormant like the above-ground portion of a tree or shrub. There is little energy demand for the above-ground stems, so almost all of that energy is directed toward root growth. A well-established root system provides an excellent foundation for water and nutrient uptake, come spring, for optimal growth. There is decreased pressure from drought stress. Because the daytime highs and nighttime lows are cooler, the evaporation rate is much lower and allows the soil to maintain moisture following planting.

When planting in the fall, be sure to plant the tree properly. Dig your hole no deeper than the height of the root ball and do not overwater—it is possible to kill your plant with kindness. Planting too deep and providing too much moisture impairs the root zone’s ability to sufficiently exchange oxygen. For a consultation about these or any other issues, contact me at scottjr@ mcadamlandscape.com or 708-7712299.

TEETH

Longtime local dentist retires from page 1 “Just for a few evenings and on Saturdays — how I ended up here for 54 years,” he explained. “Unfortunately, he passed away very quickly, and I was faced with a hard decision: remain at the university or go full time here. I couldn’t do both.” Clevs bought the building and the practice for $25,000 and got to work. Over the next 54 years, Clevs said, his experiences with Forest Parkers were very positive. “The people here have been fantastic,” he said. “They have been loyal, good, kind and honest. This is why I’ve stayed here.” Clevs has seen many changes in the practice of dentistry over his half-century in Forest Park. The biggest difference, he said, is in the materials he uses to repair teeth. When he first started, porcelain fillings in the front teeth would wash out readily and have to be replaced every few years. The fillings were very acidic to the teeth; his patients would wind up with more root canals than they do now. The equipment in the practice he bought included only a low-speed drill, which he quickly replaced with the high-speed kind he had gotten used to in the Air Force. He also noted that new pain-relieving medica-

esthesia than we had with the old kind.” He acknowledged an equally important change in the care to teeth had nothing to do with the skill, materials or equipment of

dentists themselves. “In the beginning,” Clevs said, “I used to see so many people with so many cavities, but with the introduction of fluoride in the water in the early 1960s, cavities diminished considerably.” While Clevs focused on professional changes, his wife, Batia, who has served as his assistant for the last 25 years, remarked on how much Forest Park has changed. “When I started working for Dr. Clevs,” she recalled, “there were no nice stores or restaurants in Forest Park. Madison Street was all bars. Now we have so many wonderful restaurants, clothing stores and shoe stores. There are wonderful beauty shops. A woman doesn’t have to travel far to get all the things she needs.” Saying goodbye for the pair has been very difficult. “We have patients who have been coming to us for 50 years,” Batia said. “They have become more than patients. They have become like family. It’s extremely emotional for us.” But Dr. Clevs does have some plans for retirement. “Hopefully I’ll do some traveling,” he said. “I especially want to visit Jerusalem. I plan to do a lot of reading and maybe write my memoirs.” The practice is being taken over by Dr. Lawrence Fine, whose office is at 1100 Lake St. in Oak Park. The Clevs are planning to sell the property on Circle Avenue.

OPINION O U R

V I E W

Too late on tough budget

orest Park’s village government finds itself in a tough financial pickle. It faces a roughly $1.6 million deficit in the current fiscal year. Expenses have risen by not quite 5 percent while revenues have been hit, most specifically on the sales tax

side. And while the shortfall is a serious one that requires immediate attention, we’re more perplexed and troubled that this situation is only now being publicly discussed — nearly four months into a fiscal year that began on May 1 and close to a month after the village council oddly approved the legally required but seemingly financially bogus Appropriations Ordinance. The challenges to this budget on both the revenue and the expense side did not sneak up on anybody. Village government, according to Administrator Tim Gillian, has for several years been eating cost increases for garbage hauling and dumping and on water costs coming from the city of Chicago. And on the revenue side sales taxes have suffered along with retail everywhere. Walmart, by far Forest Park’s leading non-auto sales tax generator, saw receipts actually drop. The shuttering of Ultra Foods also cost the town over $100,000 in annual sales taxes. It will help when HOBO opens shortly. And there are rumors of a replacement for Ultra but we shall see. Uncertainty over various aspects of state spending also creates difficulties. The point is that no public budget planning meetings were held among top staff and elected officials until last week. Last week! The fiscal year is one-third over. And while we like and admire Gillian, we find his explanation unlikely that it had just proved too hard to coordinate everyone’s schedules for budget meetings. This is a high priority. Turn a regularly scheduled village board meeting into a budget hearing, for heaven’s sake. Now all the decisions will have to be amplified if the gap is to be shut. While we are sympathetic to the village’s desire to protect taxpayers from endlessly higher fees or even new fees, it isn’t practical to just absorb higher garbage and water costs. Those costs need to be passed through directly to taxpayers. And the village ought to start now. Other revenue ideas are some sort of new annual sewer fee. Might help. However, floating the idea of selling off the Altenheim property after 13 years of protecting it from development is the sort of bad impulse that comes when you’re cornered. Don’t do that. Gillian said department heads have been sent back to their line items looking for costs to cut. The reality is that Forest Park runs pretty lean. Saving on the expense side is going to require cuts to personnel. That’s where the real costs of salaries and benefits are. Very painful choices. We don’t criticize Forest Park for running into a tight financial situation. That we get. But much more transparency is required from staff, the mayor and the council. We can only solve problems when they are put forward directly, honestly and in a timely manner.

A leader who helps us grow new leaders

ast week was the annual Field Stevenson open house, which marked my seventh consecutive year of having the privilege of attending. This special night had new meaning after the toxic events in Charlottesville had knocked our collective consciousness back 100 years. This Open House was grounding and hopeful, as I reconnected with Field friends, teachers and administrators. I mention the seven years because it is now hard to remember what it was like back in 2011 when Henry transitioned from second to third grade — Betsy Ross to Field Stevenson, across Roosevelt, with older kids, to a school with a middle school attached. Back then I had only set foot on the Field Stevenson side of the school twice, before Henry started to go to school there. Field Stevenson and third grade were foreign. By the time I had the opportunity to meet teachers at the open house, Henry had been going there for weeks, and I had already had the parental hazing of learning the kids do not enter the front of the school, but the back. In the old days, the two-week-in open house featured a lively roll call of every teacher at this unfamiliar Field Stevenson, who would run up to the front stage by name. However, the announcer did not share the teacher’s grade or title so I was captivated, waiting to hear “Mrs. Shriner” or “Ms. Beherens,” and to catch my first glimpse of the teachers who had spent more time with my son in the past two weeks than I had. When we broke out into classrooms, Henry lead us to the off-the-beaten-path classroom which just felt disconnected from the rest of the school, where I could see the parents and children who shared the same class. Things have changed. New Field Stevenson thirdgrade parents now have an open house before the first day of school, survival guides are distributed, and parents are told that line-up and pick-up is in the back of the school. That once off-the-beaten-path classroom in the back corner of the school is now the teacher’s lounge. There are several events at Field Stevenson throughout the school year, where Betsy Ross families are invited, which helps build a relationship with the building and teachers from older grades. Knowing and understanding history helps us appreciate where we are. At this year’s open house, Field Stevenson’s principal, army veteran, and community leader, Dr. Brunson, opened with the Pledge of Allegiance, as we always do. She invited us to please stand but added if anyone wanted to kneel, sit, or raise a fist, they could. See, at Field Stevenson, there is a culture of respect. Students and families can express themselves, but they

cannot bully, intimidate, harass or be unsafe. This culture is embodied by the leader, which trickles down throughout the school. Perhaps that is why all the families there that night stood, with hand on heart, and recited the pledge. This month, Jerry Useem’s column in the Atlantic, makes a case for power causing brain damage. He claims that over time, leaders can lose mental capacities, as gaining power can make leaders more impulsive, less able to see things from other people’s points of view, and power can even cause actual neurological changes in the brain. Brains of people with power, Useem claims, can actually be damaged, because having power weakens the human ability to conduct “mirroring,” a neural process that may be a cornerstone to empathy. It is helpful to understand the hubris syndrome that infects so many leaders and politicians. It is refreshing to see a leader like Dr. Brunson, who is humble, empathic, and in touch with reality. At the open house, the education goals were laid out for the year, and how 21st-century learning focuses on every individual, and how chrome books and technology aid in the learning environment today. This was all explained in the 21st-century glitz of video and animated slides. But it was what Dr. Brunson said at the end that carried the most weight. “At Field,” she said, “we are teaching kids to be good people.” Good people come from all sorts of environments. Good people come from any neighborhood, they can come from every walk of life. What makes a good person is not found in material, technology, or tests; it comes from good role models. Good role models are empathic, reflective, and are not possessed by power. Good people attract more good people. I look forward to sharing the fifth-grade experience with the good people of Forest Park who also have children at Field Stevenson and the Field Stevenson team. Together we can make good experiences that will help us grow good leaders for the future.
