PARR M.PUINnii'AI.RR -TUESDAY, NOVFMRKR 2«, 1»74 SUNRISE RIDGE VOTES 162-31 TO INCORPORATE (Continued from page 1) local court and jln the Appellate court, Second district, Elgin. A motion also was filed asking the court to stop the Nov. 23 election. An emergency hearing was allowed Tuesday, Nov. 19, at which time Franks argued to stop the election and Narusis took his stand in opposition. The court's verdict was to allow the vote to stand. It was the opinion of many that opposition to the Sunrise Ridge incorporation came not only from Highland Shores residents but from others on the east side of the lake. One legal opinion is that by law, where one area is in­ corporated, no other territory within one and one-half miles can also incorporate without consent from the original municipality. The east side of Wonder Lake has attempted on previous occasions, without success, to incorporate. With Sunrise Ridge now incorporated, the next step will be to call for an election to select a president, six members of a board of trustees and a village clerk. It is likely this will be accomplished before the Christmas holiday. _The new village has a population of about 430. The 1970 federal census lists the population of the Wonder Lake area as 4,906. It has long been said to be the largest unin­ corporated area in the state of Illinois.

SEDOM ACTS TO IMPROVE PIONEER TRANSPORTATION (Continued from page 1) of $4,161.94 was ordered paid to Althoff Industries for the plumbing contract. A biii from the architect as final payment for his services was ordered held until Mr. Allen can meet with the present board, some of whom have not met him, and did not feel qualified to vote on the bill, since dissatisfaction was ex­ pressed by other members. Approval was given to purchase a 12 foot scaffold with casters, for use in changing lights in the pool and gym, the cost not to exceed $300. There was some discussion as to whether a high ladder might be better, but Superintendent Robert Bright of Harrison District 36 reported his district had just made a similar pur­ chase, and he strongly recommended the movable scaffolding. Mrs. Rogulic said the room rental and pupil payments to the various member districts will be made this month, as had been the custom. The total amount is $125,625.00. A complete financial break­ down of the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation account was included in the board packet. Repayment of a loan from the Educational fund to the DVR fund of $5,338.25 was approved. An audit of this account will be made as a separate audit, since it is not included in the general yearly audit. State reimbursement for students working in the DVR program at Harvard, McHenry, and SEDOM is received by SEDOM and then disbursed to the other districts. Other high schools having DVR programs make their own claims to the state. munity, or faculty and ad­ ministration sponsors until Fe. 3, 1{J75. They should be sub­ mitted, to "Gus" Williams at MCC. To be eligible, students must be in good academic standing and have completed nine semester hours or twelve quarter hours, and be an enrolled junior college student at the time of the final judging in April. The purpose of the program is to focus more public at­ tention on Illinois junior colleges by highlighting in­ dividual student ac­ complishments. It is not a scholarship awards com­ petition, but rather a program designed to give community and state-wide recognition to two-year college students for outstanding individual achievement. When «* Special Education student reaches the age of 15, he is transferred from the elementary district to the high school^ district in which he resides. For those in private facilities, the state pays the tuition over $600. Although it was suggested SEDOM handle the billing, it was decided to continue as at present where the two districts pro-rate the days between themselves. In response to districts trying to receive additional tran­ sportation claims for the past three years when tran­ sportation claims reduced the cost to districts instead of the debt on the buses, Mrs. Rogulic said that a transportation auditor will be coming to Marengo Elementary District 140, the SEDOM administrative district, and at that time will aiso come tu SEDOM. To develop a Board Policy on investments, board members David Cain of McHenry District 15 and Supt. Loren Lemmon of Harvard District 50 were appointed by president Dr. Gordon Wendlandt of Woodstock District 200 to work with Mrs. Rogulic.

And we're sure that when the wintry winds blow from the north a few weeks from now, youngsters at Valley View school, backed by their energetic and enthusiastic teacher, Dorothy Hollander, will once again be putting out their duck containers asking contributions to assure the ducks' survival another winter. We'll contribute! Will You? K.A.F.

Governments Join To Plan Water Quality Twenty-four governments, and one council of local governments, have adopted resolutions of intent to par­ ticipate in water quality management planning for the region of northeastern Illinois. The list was announced by the Northeastern Illinois Planning Commission (NIPC) which would serve as coordinator of the project. NIPC will ask Gov. Dan Walker next month to designate the six counties of Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry and Will as a planning area under Section 208 of the Federal Water Quality Management act (Public Law 92-500). The im­ portance of this designation is that local governments of the region could jointly write their own water quality management plan. Without designation, the State of Illinois would be responsible under the act for preparing a plan for the region. Gov. Walker must hold a public hearing before making the designation. If designated, NIPC will submit a grant ap­ plication to the U.S. En­ v i r o n m e n t a l P r o t e c t i o n agency. The support of local governments must be demonstrated as evidence that a plan can be produced which is economically and politically realistic, as well as able to solve the region's problems of water pollution. Copies of a model resolution of intent have been sent to all cities, villages, counties, and sanitary districts in the region. The resolution is under active consideration by many local governments. The list of supporters for designation is growing daily. GRAND SIGHT . . . Hardy visitors to Grand Canyon in Arizona may explore the giant chasm by foot, on mule-back or rubber raft.
