A while ago, I wrote a post about a proposed Planning and Zoning change coming before the Addison Town Council regarding the White Rock Chapel.  Over the summer, the council voted down the recommendation from the Planning & Zoning Commission which would have allowed the church to operate.

October is national Fire Safety month. In 1871, the Great Chicago Fire raged for 3 days over the period of time between October 8th through the 10th. One theory is that Mrs. O'Leary's cow kicked over a lantern in the barn and that's what started the fire.  It destroyed approximately 3.3 square miles (just slightly larger than the Town of Addison) and killed over 300 people. National Fire Prevention Week (the week starting October 9th) was founded in 1922 by the National Fire Protection Association and the organization later expanded their fire prevention efforts to encompass the whole month of October.Every year in Addison, the fire fighters of the Addison Fire Department will come to your home and replace the batteries in your smoke detectors if you cannot.
