Plainfield Council Balks at Rushmore Pool Fees, Citing Affordability Fears

Plainfield City Hall Annex — Approximate Daily-Pass Prepayment Site. A proposal to start charging admission at Plainfield's year-old Rushmore Aquatic Complex collapsed this week when a city council motion to introduce the fee ordinance failed to get a second. The vote, or lack of one, means the pool — which drew roughly 2,800 users this year according to city officials — remains free to enter for now, even as the municipality faces warnings about rising costs elsewhere in its budget.

Expert score prediction: Nebraska vs. Rutgers

Nebraska football enters the final quarter of the regular season with a major uphill battle. The Huskers are 5-4 and now potentially miss out on a bowl game. Though Rutgers is sitting at 2-7 on the season, this game is riddled with factors that could provide a win to either side. Both teams are hurting both in record and in injuries, which only adds to the unpredictable nature of this game. The Huskers’ four-game skid puts them in a vulnerable position, especially with them being on the road for the second straight week. However, Nebraska is entering its first game under interim offensive coordinator Glenn Thomas following the firing of Dana Holgorsen. Thomas has been with the program since Dylan Raiola’s freshman year and has helped the quarterback position remain efficient for the past three seasons. Now he faces the test of turning around the Huskers’ stagnant offense that’s only put up a high of 17 points in a game through the losing streak. However, the Scarlet Knights have yet to hold a Big Ten team below 28 points across six conference games, providing ample opportunity for Nebraska to snap its offensive drought. Plus, Thomas’ playcalling could allow the Huskers
