Lieutenant Chris Van *** of the Riverdale Fire Department attended the first Riverdale Landlord meeting of 2008 January 17th, and gave property owners startling facts! At age 65, older adults are twice as likely to be killed or injured by fires or falls compared to the population at large and their population is increasing rapidly! In Illinois, a fall and fire prevention program which is geared specifically for older adults is available FREE! The program, called, "Illinois Remembering When" which was developed by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), The Center for High-Risk Outreach, and the Center for Disease Control (CDC), can be conducted through neighborhood groups and gatherings. Please help us spread the word! All seniors do not live in safe environments, and many are exposed to life-threatening dangers just from everyday living. This program will bring awareness and prevention. If you have a group interested in sponsoring a gathering of older adults in Illinois, please contact Lt. Chris Van *** at the Riverdale Fire Department at 708-849-2122 ext. 3812. If you know of someone needing to get this crucial information, please contact him at the same number to sign up for the next presentation. Tax deductible donations are also being accepted.  Lieutenant Chris Van *** - informing property owners on the dangers to older adults.  
At the conclusion of the presentation, Joe Hodges, Chairman of the Riverdale Landlord Association handed over a donation that was collected from the concerned landlords after hearing about the need.

The Clock for 2007 is winding down, just seconds before the year is closed, never to be seen again..... It's the END! We will be incapable of bringing 2007 back again! Promises that were made, resolutions proclaimed, purposes purported, ambitions dreamt, plans laid out, and goals that were set... all that did not materialize are now just faint thoughts.... vague meaningless memories.... whisked away unto oblivion..... P O O F ! 
Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that apears for a little time, and then vanishes away..... James 4:14 NOW!..... Time moves on, a new year awaits..... It's TIME TO DREAM AGAIN! ..... It's The "BEGINNING!"  It's a NEW DAY! Time to start afresh! By the Grace of GOD you are still here! You have survived and have been granted A NEW CHANCE!! Forget about the past.... it's over.... begin anew! Don't rehearse past failures, hurts, wrongs, and injustices... YOU'VE BEEN GIVEN A NEW START!! Leave that negativity back in the past and be grateful for the NEW! The number 8 means NEW Beginning.. 2008 is NEW!! Come, Let us REJOICE! "And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful." Rev 21:5 "Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. Isa 43:19 My prayer for all is for a very prosperous GOD-Fearing 2008, as HE makes known unto us the riches of HIS Glory! Thank you for allowing me to partake of your fellowship in 2007!

Some considerations.... To think on.... Prior to listing your home....   How does my home appear to the potential purchaser? - What can we do to assure the future buyer chooses our home?
- What are our chances of selling in a buyer's market?
- Will we be able to get the "Rice" Price for our home?
- Should we list NOW, or should we wait until the market changes?
- Are there any other options? If so, what are they?
With so much negativity being saturated in the atmosphere related to the Real Estate Market, one could easily be caught up in listening instead of listing!! Do NOT despair another moment! You've not happened upon this website for naught.... We can help you in many many ways.... Here are just a few: - Rice & Rice Painting & Carpet Cleaning - Professionally Prepares Homes For Listing!

In spite of last minute holiday appointments and commitments held by the majority of Landlord Association Members, a nice amount of landlords did show up to hear President, Joe Hodges speak at the last meeting of the year, then fellowship with one another while enjoying refreshments provided by the Village of Riverdale. Joe spoke on the great progresses we have accomplished since initially beginning the group of concerned owners in Riverdale. He reviewed and shared about the wealth of resources we've been privileged to receive information on and assistance in to aid us in becoming successful with the investments housed in the community. He encouraged everyone to contemplate elections for officers and positions in January that would cement our purposes and establish us as a credible productive organization! Recap of 2007: An attorney came to speak on the new eviction laws A tax consultant visited, giving advice about appealing property taxes A representative from a tenant credit report company came and offered group rates A gentleman from a private investigation company offered to do background checks Riverdale's Youth Committee visited, offering solutions with youth problems Riverdale's Building & Zoning Director - General compliance input Riverdale's Trustee members - visible support The Mayor of Riverdale, Zenovia Evans visited, giving overall support Whole-hearted participation from ALL the owners
In just one year, many proactive feats were accomplished thanks to the committed unity of landlords bonding together with a City that cares. The last meeting of the year ended with an optimistic outlook for anticipated growth in 2008! We could not end this year without recognizing the "beyond the call" efforts of LYNDA ODIGIE, Riverdale's Housing Coordinator. Lynda worked tireless behind the scenes hours without pay for the goal of assisting President, Joe Hodges in bringing to fruition his aspirations for a successful association. Thank you LYNDA ODIGIE!! & Thank you Mayor Zenovia Evans for lending her to us!  
 
 
Next meeting is scheduled for January 17, 2008 at 5:00 P.M. If you are an owner of a single family or multi-unit property located in Riverdale, Illinois, come join forces with us and receive assistance that can only be gained in group participation! For further information, call Joe Hodges at 708-308-5099

Debbie Meyers-Martin, the Economic Development Coordinator from the Office of the Illinois State Treasurer's Office was the speaker at the Calumet City Chamber of Commerce meeting and luncheon held Wednesday, October 10, 2007, in Tom's Restaurant - Calumet City, Illinois. Ms. Meyers-Martin handed out literature and spoke on the low-interest rate loans for Illinois business owners, which are designed to ultimately create new jobs through the State's "Employ Illinois" program. More information can be found on the website of State Treasurer, Alexi Giannoulias. A "Child Care Program" under "Employ Illinois" is also available for qualifying projects that generate new DCFS-licensed child care spaces. This could be the answer to child care providers working out of their homes, and for those looking to expand. . Debbie Meyers-Martin
