Engineer says sewer work being completed
After having sewage backup in their basements twice in a years time, a group of homeowners in Peru are wondering what�s being done to make sure it doesn�t happen again. They were at last night�s informal meeting with their concerns. Engineer for the city, Roger Chamlin went down a list of projects he and Public Works Director Don Kowalczyk�s staff have been performing. Chamlin plans to go over the progress in more detail at the next Citizen Sewer Committee meeting. It�s been scheduled for Thursday September 11 at 7pm.

No Strike For Streator Teachers
A possible teacher�s strike was averted for the Streator Elementary School District. Around 1:30 this morning, the teacher�s association and district administration reached a tentative new contract. The teacher�s had been working without a contract as of August 15th. The deal came after six negotiating sessions and seven hours of negotiations last night.

Smoke testing Thursday and Friday in Peru
Smoke testing isn�t over in Peru. Employees of Teenie�s will be smoke testing the sanitary sewer line that serves Park and Gunia Avenues. If you live in that area, you could notice a non-toxic white smoke coming into your home. If it does, open a window for ventilation. Smoke should leave through the vent on your roof. The testing will be done tomorrow and Friday.
