Dr. Jim Willey's Web Log: November 2004
http://jlwilley.blogspot.com/2004_11_01_archive.html
Dr Jim Willey's Web Log. Tuesday, November 30, 2004. Last night, Trustee Jeff Metcalf and I talked to three reporters about Elburn, the future, and what's in store for 2005. We both fully expect Metra passenger service to begin in Elburn next year, and we also expect that the project to remove trace levels of radium from our deep well water supply will be brought online as well. A feasibility study is a very preliminary step in a long process to establish a community pool, but we will be looking to gage ...

http://jlwilley.blogspot.com/2007/07/hey-that-me.html
Dr Jim Willey's Web Log. Thursday, July 12, 2007. So much has happened in the last year that it's difficult for me to fathom all the changes. Rest assured, our community has always been in good hands. We have a dedicated village board and an excellent village staff that makes running Elburn a pleasurable experience. I appreciate everyone who has been patient with me as I have adjusted to my new life. One constant remains. I love our town, and I still want to see it grow "Better and not just Bigger! You N...

Dr Jim Willey's Web Log. Sunday, November 19, 2006. Magna Rotors Are Rooting. Over the past year, 4 new magna-rotors have been installed at the Village of Elburn waste water treatment plant.

The village board has been very serious about our commitment to keeping our treatment plant in good shape. Posted by Jim Willey at 8:49 PM. Elburn, Illinois, United States. How many ...

Dr. Jim Willey's Web Log: You Never Leave Any Wider
http://jlwilley.blogspot.com/2007/01/you-never-leave-any-wider.html
Dr Jim Willey's Web Log. Friday, January 19, 2007. You Never Leave Any Wider. Fisherman's Inn looked particularly charming last Tuesday morning just before our CMAP workshop, and after a 2-inch snowfall had fallen the previous evening. OK, so the story goes like this. The food at Fisherman's Inn is specially formulated to stack vertically as you eat. So, eat all you want when you visit. You may leave a little taller, but you won't leave any wider.

Dr Jim Willey's Web Log. Tuesday, November 21, 2006. Last night our Elburn Village Board paid its respect to Akron, our one and only police dog, who recently died. Akron retired in 2005 after 6 years of faithful service to our community. Akron's partner/trainer Brian Schopp was presented with a commemorative plaque, and a duplicate plaque will be displayed at our police department. Mike Anderson, Dave Gualdoni and some of their friends, who remember Akron fondly, also attended our presentation. How many ...
