Ridge Road & Calumet Avenue Streetscape and Corridor Ridge Road & Calumet Avenue Streetscape and Corridor Improvement Plan for the Town of Munster, Indiana Proposal to the Town of Munster October 30, 2019 Submitted by: Teska Associates in association with Sam Schwartz Consulting Mary-Ann Ervin, Purchasing Agent August 29, 2016 City of Quincy 730 Maine Street, Suite # 226 Quincy, Illinois 62301 Dear Ms. Ervin, On behalf of Teska Associates, Inc. and our team, I am pleased to submit our proposal for professional services as a Strategic Planning Consultant. We have assembled a team of experts specifically selected to address Quincy’s needs. We are joined in this submittal by Ticknor & Associates, specializing in economic development; Business Districts, Inc., focusing on market economics and business district revitalization; Poepping, Stone, Bach & Associates, Inc., a Quincy-based architecture, engineering and planning firm; Gewalt Hamilton Associates, a full service transportation planning and engineering firm; and Heritage Consulting, Inc., specializing in historic preservation, tourism and cultural planning. Together, our team has an approach to strategic planning that is well suited to serve the City of Quincy. Savvy, nimble, innovative, engaging, celebratory. We don’t just excel at our work, we deliver a great product, an enjoyable process, and satisfied participants. What will distinguish the results of the plan from our Teska Team is its utility for many years to come. It will be used and referred to by City and GREDF staff, appointed and elected officials, and by the other partners and stakeholders who will lead Quincy to an even more robust, vital and sustainable environment to live, work, invest and enjoy. Preparing a strategic plan is a rare and important event. To be successful, truly able to guide future decision-making, it must be a shared effort that engages the community’s civic and business leadership and residents in building a consensus. We believe that working together with each of the four issue- oriented steering committees and the variety of effective “total public engagement” strategies we will employ, we will achieve that consensus. We understand that this effort is multi-faceted, involves many agencies and actors, and will require the synthesis of separate recommendations regarding the four priority areas into one seamless and well-articulated strategy and action plan. We have excellent records of completing our assignments with award winning results. We strongly encourage you to contact our references. We look forward to the prospect of working with you on this exciting and critically important effort. Sincerely, Lee M.

  • Biographical Notice of Professor S. W. Burnham of Chicago
    * 4' 509 7 142 Biographical Notice of Professor S. W. Burnham of Chicago. By the death in Chicago, March I I, 192 I, of Professor Sherburne Wesley Burnham, the celebrated dis- coverer of double stars, America has lost one of her most illustrious astronomers, and double-star astronomy its most eminent cultivator since the days of W. Herschel and K Struve, who laid the foundations of this branch of the science about a century ago. Professor Burnham was born at Thetford, Vermont, Dec. 12, 1838, and thus he attained the age of 82 years and 3 months. Though retired from active observing for about ten years, Bumham had enjoyed moderately good health for his years and somewhat frail build, and finally succumbed to weakness accentuated by a fall, in which a hip was broken. After this misfortune he lingered some three weeks, without extreme suffering, yet the shock proved too great for the feeble recuperative power incident to his advanced age. Burnham was married in the years of his early manhood, and is survived by his aged widow, several sons and daughters, including a number of grandchildren. A more detailed account of his family will be given by Professor 3.E. Barnard, in a biographical notice soon to appear in Popular Astronomy. Here it must suffice to give an outline of his scientific career, which has left so deep an impress on the science of his country and of his age. In his youth this future celebrated astronomer had received only a common school education; but already in the days of the civil war he happened to become possessed of a copy of Burritt's Geography of the Heavens, which so interested him that it turned his attention to astronomy, and he lived to devote to this science over half a century of active observation and research, with the largest telescopes in the world.
