PAGE 20-PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, MAY 2, 1973 NUMEROUS APPOINTMENTS MADE AT COUNCIL (Continued from page 1) and Carl Weber reappointed as members of the Board of Health and John Shay as director of Civil Defense. Mayor Stanek announced that there was one position open on the McHenry Zoning Board of Appeals since Richard Cooling had moved out of town. Stanek nominated A1 Mapes of 1510 Lakeland, McHenry, to fill that position. Mapes has lived in McHenry for six years since he was appointed as manager of Spurgeon's Department store. He is very active in local organizations and is now serving as president of the McHenry Kiwanis club. He is a member of McHenry Chamber of Commerce, Finance Com­ mittee board of Zion Lutheran church, past vice-president of McHenry Market Place Merchants association and past chairman of Blackhawk Area Council Boy Scouts sustaining membership drive for McHenry. Mayor Stanek noted that Mapes works in town and is available for afternoon meetings of the Zoning Board of Appeals. „ Alderman Frank Hromec moved the nomination of Mapes be accepted and all agreed. At the present time, there are nine members on the McHenry Planning commission. Six to twelve members are allowed. Stanek nominated two new members, bringing the board to eleven. His selections were Gerald K. Bunting of 4813 W. Bonner drive, and Ronald Meurer of 4814 W. Prairie avenue. Bunting, his wife and one child, have lived in McHenry three years. He is a graduate of the University of Nebraska where he earned a Bachelor of Architecture degree in 1968. His areas of experience include building design and con­ struction, land use planning, master planning, subdivision planning, etc. Meurer and his family have lived in the area fourteen years. He is well known in the area, having worked actively for the improvement of the Lakeland Park area as to annexation and' sewer development. He was also supervisor of special assessments for the project. Harker moved Bunting's nomination be approved and Bolger did likewise for Meurer. Both were approved unanimously. Regarding the Police com­ mission, Larry J. Huck serves as chairman, Jack Oakford as secretary and Art Jackson as a member. Jackson's term ex­ pired midnight April 30 and Stanek selected to replace him with Earl H. Murray of 940 N. Wiltshire drive. Murray, a fifteen-year resident of the area, has served in numerous police functions. He was a member of the Mc- Cullom Lake Police depart­ ment for fifteen years, the last seven as chief. He is an active member of McHenry County Chiefs of Police association and the Illinois Associate of Chiefs of Police. Part of his military service was in the Military Police. Murray is vice-president of Bell Federal Savings and Loan association, where he is manager of the Construction Loan department. He has been with Bell for thirty-seven years. Harker movpH Murray's appointment be approved and all agreed. On the Police Pension board, Ron Vacula's term expired May 1 and his reappointment was o.k.'d by the Council. In announcing the standing committees, Stanek mentioned that in previous years, fresh­ men Council members were not given chairmen appointments. Stanek has changed that practice because he felt that the men newly elected to this Council were capable and able to handle the job. Standing committees were approved as follows: Finance - Chairman Rogers, Pepping and Datz; License - Chairman Howard, Wegener and Bolger; Streets and Sidewalks - Chairman Hromec, Harker and Bolger; Public Property - Chairman Datz, Hromec and Howard; Public Utilities - Chairman Bolger, Harker and Rogers; Band - Chairman Wegener, Harker and Pepping; Recreation and Parks - Chairman Pepping, Datz and Rogers; Purchasing - Chair­ man Harker, Howard and Wegener; and Zoning and Building (Advisory) - Chair­ man Wegener, Datz and Hromec. In other business, Alderman Harker presented a resolution recognizing City Attorney John Looze and commending him for the valuable contributions he had made toward the growth of the city of McHenry for over a quarter of a century. Harker moved the resolution be adopted, signed and presented to Looze. The motion was ap­ proved unanimously. Looze was not present at the meeting. A letter was read from A1 Jourdan, chairman of the McHenry County Republican Central committee, requesting the Council's permission for a ten-minute fireworks display to be held at the close of the an­ nual Republican Golf Day event at McHenry Country club on July 18. During discussion, Bolger related he had received complaints about the display held last year for which no permit was issued by the city. However, the fire marshal's permission was obtained. Harker moved that per­ mission be given for the fireworks display with the concurrence of the fire marshal and thafthe display must be held nb later than 10 p.m. On roll call vote, Datz, Harker, Howard and Wegenr approved while Bolger, Hromec, Pepping and Rogers voted no. Mayor Stanek was called upon to cast the deciding vote and he voted yes. Approval was given to hold the display. In unexpected action, Alderman Rogers informed the board that nowhere in city ordinances or codes could he find any mention of the need for an annual meeting. In his opinion, any action taken at that meeting last week was invalid because when a special meeting is called, it must be specified what can be done. As city pay raises and police pay schedules were approved at that meeting, Rogers felt the matters would have to be brought up again and re-voted to make sure it was legal. Since Looze was not at the meeting, it was not possible to get a legal opinion. Discussion was held on deferring the matter until the next meeting and making any pay raises retroactive to May 1. Rogers insisted all action taken at the annual meeting was invalid since there was no provision for such a meeting in city ordinance and he could find no provision for it anywhere. Walsh asked if Rogers had a legal opinion on the matter and he replied "No, it is just my opinion". Rogers continued, "I think the city employees are entitled to their raises but I would like to do it in a proper manner so it wouldn't be challenged later." Following more discussion, Howard moved that all action taken at the annual meeting be reaffirmed by the Council. Harker seconded the motion. Results of the voting were as follows: Datz, Harker, Howard, Pepping and Wegener voted yes and Bolger, Hromec and Rogers disapproved. Motion carried. Mayor Stanek informed the Council that in the future, agenda items for Council meetings must be submitted to Earl Walsh's office by noon Friday prior to Monday's meetings. Agenda will then be prepared and mailed to all aldermen so that they will be prepared to discuss matters being presented. A copy of the appnHo ..»]] posted in ine window by the City Clerk for the public's information. If any unexpected matters come up, the agenda can be amended the night of the meeting by a vote of the members present. If any citizen wishes to speak before theCounci, the same procedure will be followed. Other matters handled at the Council meeting will be presented in the Friday edition of the paper.

It seems especially true when all of us are trying to feed families within our food budget. And com­ parison shopping makes sense. A major bank in New York re­ cently sent 2 shoppers to the same supermarket with the same gro­ cery list -- but one shopper was to compare prices while the other was not. The result was an $11.18 difference in their grocery bills. The comparison shopper paid $25.12 for the similar items for which the other shopper paid $36.30. The wise shopper should com­ pare prices by using the unit pricing concept -- how much you are actually paying for each ounce, quart or pound. Compar- size and convenience with ing what room you for really need or have • are other important * comparisons. Comparing brands • is also important due to the wide . variation in prices. And finally, - compare your own menu possi- „ bilities for good meals at lower - prices.
