WOODSTOCK BASS PRO 2015 S. Route 47 Woodstock, Illinois OOAAIS OAAPOSITES SHOP 815/338-3550 general a^M yci 101 ai News © County invites public to transportation talk John Kramer, the interim chairman of the R.T.A. and Secretary of Transportation for Illinois, will be the guest speaker at a luncheon sponsored by the combined chambers of. McHenry County April 10 at the Courthouse Inn in Woodstock. Although special invitations are being issued to all Chamber members, this luncheon is open to the public to give everyone an opportunity to hear this knowledgeable man who is coming to address the tran­ sportation concerns of McHenry County specifically. At a recent legislative con­ ference in Springfield, spon­ sored by the Illinois State Chamber of Commerce, Governor Thompson told the assemblage that he credited Kramer with having done more for the State of Illinois in the last eight years than any other single individual he could think of. As Secretary of Tran­ sportation, Kramer oversees one of the largest agencies in Illinois state, government, with 7,100 employees and an annual budget of $3 billion. The Department is responsible for the state's policies and programs dealing with high­ ways, public transportation, traffic safety, aeronautics, freight and passenger rail services and water resources. Secretary Kramer was in­ strumental in drafting and helping to enact three landmark transportation bills. He worked on the Federal Surface Tran­ sportation Assistance Act of 1982 which became law last January and contains a number of provisions highly favorable to Illinois. This bill will provide nearly $4.6 billion for highway and mass transit capital im­ provements in Illinois over a four-year period. In addition, federal legislative authorization for transit operating assistance in the amount of $59 million a year for Northeastern Illinois was retained. More state legislation to aid transportation was approved by the Illinois General Assembly during 1983 than in any time in the last 30 years. Secretary Kramer successfully sought increases in revenue for high­ way funding and the legislation for reforming, restructuring and refinancing of the transit system in the six-county Chicago metroplitan area. The Illinois Department of Transportation is considered one of the outstanding tran­ sportation agencies in the United States and two of its former key management per­ sonnel have gone on to bead departments of transportation in Iowa and Michigan. In administering the depart­ ment, Secretary Kramer has "reduced the number of em­ ployees while increasing productivity. By the end of 1983, the department's work force will be 25 percent less than the 1972 level of 9,200 personnel despite a greatly increased work load. In addition, Illinois devotes a lower percentage of its workforce to administration and precon- struction than 38 other states surveyed over the five-year period from 1977 through 1981. Through his work in sub­ sequent highway bills and the annual appropriations process, Secretary Kramer working with the governor and the Illinois Congressional delegation has substantially increased the return of federal dollars to Illinois. As a result, more than $1.65 in federal transportation funds has been returned to Illinois during the last federal fiscal year for each $1 in federal highway user taxes sent to Washington. Prior to Kramer's appointment. the state's return on Federal highway taxes was considerably less than $1. As interim chairman of the R.T.A., Kramer hopes to inspire new public trust and confidence in mass transit. His tactics include cutting commuter rail fares and providing rail com­ muters with a new $25 monthly "link-up" pass to pick up CTA buses at dozens of stations outside the Loop area. Kramer calls this expansion a significant improvement from the original plan to tie in with CTA feeder buses only at downtown rail terminals. Kramer is attacking thf RTA*S image problem sym­ bolically as well tffe'f sub­ stantively. He Auctioned off hi£ chairman's limousine and he rides a bus to work at the RTA's Marina City headquarters from his north-side home. He has also donated his $1,000 monthly salary as interim chairman to a fund that will reward courteous employees as well as those "who perform above and beyond their responsibility". April 10 is the opportunity to personally hear this remarkable man speak on "Transportation in McHenry County in 1984". Admission is by ticket only and reservations can be made at any of the county Chamber offices. Call 385-4300 for reservations. Assembly time is 11:30 a.m. and lunch will be served at noon. .
