  Mr. ROSKAM. Madam Speaker, I rise today to commemorate the 50th 
Anniversary of the incorporation of Carol Stream, Illinois, a vital 
part of my Congressional District.
  The Village was founded by Jay Stream, a leading figure the city's 
first residential housing development, Carol Stream Estates, in 1959. 
Named after Jay's daughter Carol, the Village was incorporated on 
January 5th, 1959. From its early origins, Carol Stream has been a 
model for other cities and towns to follow, through its continued 
dedication building a friendly and welcoming community for residents 
and visitors alike.
  On the occasion of this 50th Anniversary, we join together to 
celebrate Carol Stream's legacy of growth and prosperity and to look 
ahead to the opportunities facing our state and our nation. Today both 
marks 50 years of working together to build a brighter future, and 
reminds us that our work continues.
  Madam Speaker and Distinguished Colleagues, please join me in 
recognizing Carol Stream Mayor Frank Saverino, the Carol Stream Village 
Legislative Board and the citizens of Carol Stream, and in wishing them 
every happiness on this special occasion.
