I'll be fighting to stay at WV. I'll be fighting to stay out of St Johns. I'll be fighting that same battle -- hopefully will see you both at WV !

I am not understanding. The same power lines running past Macom, run behind NVHS. And they run through Ashbury and even closer to Patterson School. But more confusing to me is that there are houses surrounding the power lines all along it. Personally for me, it's the addition of the substation that makes power be 2 strikes not 1. Patterson has lines, but not a nearby substation. That gives it 1 strike not 2. I guess my opinion is that if there is data from Com Ed and the SB's own independent review of the hazard, I'd have to trust that for either site. Also, wouldn't the cities of either Aurora or Naperville have to sign off on the safety of either site? city engineers? planners?

Arch, there are switching stations at both the Macom and AME sites. The one at the AME site is huge. What would people do if either of these sites were selected? Pray for staying at WVHS. Where can we attend these services ? I want to sign up

Now, c'mon you all. What would happen if some of us prayed to stay at NVHS? You'd roast us. Right?

It was mentioned earlier in a previous post.. the levels that are deemed to be 'safe' are not entirely agreed upon. I'm sure a certain amount of mercury being played with in one's hands for fun would be considered 'safe' but that doesn't mean people would want to expose their kids to it any more than what must be done. It's like sun and skin cancer. Some choose to protect their kid's skin and go to great degrees, others do not. Same goes for 2nd hand smoke.

Not if you were praying to stay there versus travelling across 8 - 10 miles of expanse, and then getting a less than ideal site even after getting there. I would like to stay at WVHS, but I would fine to attend NV if sent there. ( or MV if it is on an acceptable site and not twice the distance from my house as either WV or NV ) If you would say the same thing ( reversing the 1st preference) - I think the church doors are open.....

OK I was away at a meeting last nite...Hoo Boy! many pages to read!! I found out why Costco has been included in all the litigation. The have a Restrictive covenant on the rest of the BB property to not allow certain types of establishments, namely Sam's/Walmart and a few others I have never heard of before, for 15 years. I was also told by someone in the know with Aurora, that there will be access to the school from Rt 59. Most likely at the exsisting Traffic light by Lowes. WVHS Parent, Thanks for the info. Can you be more specific in terms of the "restrictive covenant" on the balance of the BB property? Seems kind of bizarre to me. Not standard in a retail contract. Most retailers thrive on locating themselves adjacent to comparable retail competitors. For example, Target looks to find space as close to to a community Walmart, and vice versa. Not saying this isn't the case, but it's beyond the retail norm as I know it. Also, I had already heard about the access off 59. Heard that through the Walmart Rumor grapevine. That was a major point if the SB only purchased 40 acres and lost the frontage off 75th in the pursuit to expand the site at Calvary? No?

I'll be prepared with a donation! I'll bring the coin jar. No laughs, it's large enough to fund our family vacation at this point.

I'm glad that you mentioned passing the basket. It will keep the CFO crowd out.
