Tax-break cutoff and enterprise zones clear Senate panel

In Springfield the Senate Revenue Committee endorsed a plan to disconnect Illinois from a Reagan era tax break for business equipment, aiming to save 40 percent of the federal write-off. A separate enterprise zones bill to grant tax relief in blighted areas moved to the Senate floor 8-3, amid concerns over local control and potential abuses.

Talking privy protests hazardous waste landfill near Ottawa

About 50 LaSalle County residents calling themselves Residents Against A Polluted Environment staged a protest at the Illinois Capitol steps. A talking outhouse with a wireless receiver broadcast voices from protesters while 2000 rolls of toilet paper depicted anger over the Pioneer II landfill southwest of Ottawa. The group objects to the 177 acre site developed by Pioneer Processing Co. of Wheaton, claiming it sits above an aquifer and risks health. The protest targets the EPA permit and a Pollution Control Board decision from February.
