After foisting on us their monster property tax increase, D39 should have NO deficits, ANYWHERE! Finding such deficits here and there smells like setting us up for yet another exorbitant increase, allowing the District to continue its sloppy financial management. Enough!

This accident occurred in the heart of “The Northfield Strangler.” How many more accidents and fatalities before the State steps in, builds an overpass for the kiddies, and widens Willow Road to the urgently-needed five lane configuration?

The almighty, all-wise powers that are Cook County have spoken! And now, these ladies’ clean-up and planting efforts (native species, mind you) have reverted to trash and weeds, just the way the county and the local busybody like it. Remember this the next time you feel too lazy to vote for Forest Preserve board candidates!

Dave, with all due respect:
1. Cleaning up trash and planting native flowers and shrubs is not “altering an ecosystem.” It is restoration. Or, in this case, rescue.
2. If these ladies had, all those years ago, “organized and worked with the FPD,” the trash would still be lying there, and they’d still be waiting to plant their first seed. This is not a system that encourages citizen initiative — unless there’s money in it for somebody.
And that makes their commitment even more admirable! The FPD ought to be ashamed of themselves.
