Today's riddle: What has a tail, but no body? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Arlington Heights Students Earn Honors At Nebraska, UW-Whitewater (patch.com) — Arlington Heights families can celebrate several local students earning major college honors this fall. Three recent graduates, including John Hersey and St. Viator alumni, were named to prestigious programs at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and are competing on the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater football team, highlighting strong academic and athletic success beyond Arlington Heights.
• Four-bedroom house sells for $1.28 million in Arlington Heights (shawlocal.com) — A four-bedroom home on North Illinois Avenue in Arlington Heights recently sold for $1.28 million, highlighting strong demand in that part of town. Several nearby properties also closed between $785,000 and $1.65 million, giving residents a clear snapshot of current neighborhood prices and what size homes and amenities those amounts are buying locally.
• Police say Flock is invaluable. But as misuse mounts, many wonder how to rein in the surveillance system (dailyherald.com) — An Arlington Heights state representative is helping lead a push to tighten rules on Flock automated license plate readers after a series of alleged misuse cases across Illinois and nearby states. The proposed legislation would sharply limit how long data is stored and what crimes it can be used to investigate, as towns and civil liberties groups debate balancing public safety with privacy.
