New Bay Road Assistant Supervisor Adams of McHenry township said there are indications the state could be persuaded to build a new Pistakee Bay road over Skidmore bridge- if the county bought A he right-of-way.

Continue Tax Collection States Attorney-Elect Richjprd Gross has informed the board that he will do all in his power to collect delinquent personal properly taxes. A total of $10,000 has been appro priated for the purpose. • Supervisor Schroeder s a f d people should realize that abolishment of the personal property tax and the institution of <an income tax would cost the taxpayer more money. This statement he said, is confirmed by examining the tax set-up in Wisconsin, which has no personal property but does have a state income tax. Income tax payments of the individual, state-wide, is reported higher than individual personal property payments in Illinois. . .

Sales tax collections were announced as $8,200 for July and $8,100 in August. Ft.

Plan Report Highlights Continued from Page 1 ommendations based on the fact that McHenry has not one, but four, Competing shopping areas within the present central business district, capturing various segments of the total retail sales, all but one of which is capturing a proportionate share of the market to justify continued exis t e n c e. The two principal areas were found to be Elm street and Green street, with findings of the survey disclosing that they are, by far, the most important in terms of dollar volume, adequacy of parking and expressed desire of customers. The goal, as expressed in the report, reflects the re-alignment of the various existing shopping areas into integrated uses. It was noted that nearby cities are considering recom-. mendations for the improvement of their retail centers, but even with these improvements and the possible extension of shopping center influences nearby, there appeared to be enough potential to justify an extensive re-development program in McHenry. Major recommendations change the Character of the west side area from retail to n o n - r e t a i l a c t i v i t i e s , which would require the eventual relocation of present retail uses. The Riverside Drive area would remain as a retail area within its present boundaries. It was anticipated, howeyer, that this would assume many of the characteristics of the recreational vuse»~JtooM|0e Of its proximity to the river. The Green street and Elm street areas would, through expansion into the Boone creek area, become the principal retail shopping center of McHenry. The retail area they recommended would be expanded to the east to include both sides of Court street end to the west to include Third street The planning consultants found that the central business district layout is designed to encourage the interchange of pedestrian traffic from Elm to Green street. Tourist shopping potential, they feel, can result in a significant portion of future sales through a positive program to attract the "boating dollar". There was a distinct feeling on the part of the planners that development of Boone Creek to offer direct boating access to the shopping center must be exploited. Without utilizing the creek for additional sales development, they felt the creek at this location is a deferent to successful integration of the central business district and represents a formidable obstacle to overcome. The report lists "recreational" commercial zoning as contemplated generally for the area east of Court street between Boone Creek and Rt. 120, in the jurisdictional area east of the Fox river. Uses anticipated within this area would be a continuation of such activities as bowling alleys, taverns, marinas, theatres, motels, etc. No retail activities are contemplated in this area. However, the consultants caution against building code requirements being closely scrutinized to prevent an "amusement park" type of development.

Musin' & Meanderin' Continued from Page 1 struggle remains the chief reason for regret over the fact that the auto was ever invented/ Nerves and temper may be eased if one visualizes the rosy picture traffic engineers predict** for our automotive future. Highways of the future will be a pleasant prospect of smooth, uninterrupted travel, with no traffic jams, no intersections and few accidents, they tell us. Cars of the future will be guided automatically, so the driver can take a nap, read a book, or play cards while his vehicle rolls smoothly along to its destination, automatically following route guides built into the pavement. Accidents will be, almost nonexistent, auto -engineers predict, because cars of the future will be equipped with radar-like devices to detect obstacles ahead and will steer around them or stop automatically. It won't be necessary to keep an eye op the road, because there will be electronic 'eyes" to take over that task. Wear-resistant h i g°h ways, magnetic route guides, colored road surfaces are all in the experimental stage, but they're something to keep in mind the next time you get caught in a traffic jam.
