The resolution designates the Northeastern Illinois Planning commission (NIPC) as the responsible agency to conduct such planning. Although Aldermen Pepping and Datz expressed some apprehension at giving NIPC any more power, Mayor Stanek and Alderman Rogers, who at tended a meeting regarding the matter, urged Council Ap­ proval. The resolution' was adopted unanimously. Chairman of the Police committee, Alderman Jack Pepping, reported to the Council on the Nov. 25 meeting of that committee. He noted that Chief Kenneth Espey had appointed a committee of police personnel to draw up revised rules and regulations for the Police department. Chief Espey will submit a status report to the Police committee by Dec. 9 and he expects to complete the rules and regulations for Council approval no later than Dec. 16. R e g a r d i n g E s p e y ' s statement at the meeting that "he is running the police department and he intends to change his image into that of an aggressive man in charge," Pepping felt this may be the catalyst needed to bring everyone together to workfor common goals. "The police department appears to be closer together than it has been for a long time," Pepping noted. Mayor Stanek commented that it was his opinion the two patrolmen named in the newspaper story of the Police committee meeting were both good men. Alderman Hromec echoed his sentiments. Chairman Earl Murray of the board of Police and Fire Commissioners also com­ mented on the Nov. 25 com­ mittee meeting. He pointed out that, "this commission sees nothing to be gained by engaging in a ven­ detta with any person or body so I will have no further comment on this meeting at this time." "May I instead, urge all of us to work together in a cooperative and harmonious manner for the common good," he continued. Murray appeared at the meeting to report on the progress to date on the Lange versus the City of McHenry case. The case was settled Tuesday evening when the commission decided to drop its appeal of Judge Richard Kelly's decision and reinstated Duane Lange in the police depart men! Following his presentation. Alderman William Bolger commended Murray on his report Mayor Stanek also thanked Murray for his diligent work on the commission. It was noted that the first date to file lor aldermanic seats in the upcoming election is Jan. 7. The l erms of aldermen which expire next year are William J Bolger. first ward; George I, Harker. second ward; Donald Howard, third ward and Jerome I) Rogers, fourth ward Further specific in­ formal ion will be released later As in past years, the Council voted lo donate $1,000 to the Chamber of Commerce towards its Christmas decoration program A new classification of liquor license was established. Two Class "H" licenses were set up which allows that beer and wine can be served with food only No bar sales are per­ mitted under this classification The fee is $300 a year Alderman Laverne Hromec asked that some sort of notice be issued reminding people in the Lakeland Park Special Assessment area thai Dec. 18 is the deadline for issuance of the reduced sewer hook fee. Supt Fred Meyer assured her something was already being planned / Alderman James Wegener, chairman of they Purchasing committee, recommended that a calculator be punchased for use at the sewer plajnt and that a set of snap on fools be pur­ chased for use at the city garage The expenditures were authorized by the Council Payment was made in the amount of $70,499 to Curran Contracting for street im­ provements completed this summer. Partial payment of $60,984 was issued to Lakeland Construction for work com­ pleted on the proposed Lillian street improvements. Alderman Hromec made a suggestion that the agenda for each city Council meeting be published in the Plaindealer. The agenda is now prepared by the mayor and posted on out­ side doors at the city hall as well as sent to area newspapers. To be eligible for Plaindealer deadlines, the agenda would have to be submitted Wednesday by 10 a.m. Alderman Datz remarked that he was afraid it would create more ill will if an in- , complete agenda should be nted. If a matter was discussed which was added to the agenda after publication, people might ask "how could you discuss that when it wasn't on your agenda?" Councilmen gave no support to Mrs. Hromec's suggestion. The Council granted a tag day Dec. 7 to benefit restoration of the Woodstock Opera House for use as a county cultural center. A county-wide tag day is being held that day in conjunction with other towns. Mrs. Larry Lund appeared before the Council to make the request in behalf of the restoration committee. Alderman Pepping an­ nounced that there will be a meeting of the Park committee , Saturday morning in city hall at 8:30. Purpose of the meeting is to study and finalize proposed plans for develop­ ment of Petersen Park in the northern section of the city. The session is open to the public.

COMMISSION TAKES VOTE TO REINSTATE LANGE (Continued from page 1) Since Murray is the only member of the commission still on the board who was present when the actual hearings were held, Blum and Pintozzi had to read a transcript of the actual trial (565 pages) in order to familiarize themselves with the matter before making a decision to continue the appeal or drop it. Lange was told to report to Chief of Police Kenneth Espey Wednesday morning for in­ structions toward preparation of reinstatement. In other action, the com­ mission adopted an "Exit In­ terview Outline" to be used when police personnel leave the department. The commission expressed deep concern regarding the manpower turn over, "sixteen out of sixteen in a little over three and one-half years," in the police depart­ ment. Since there are only two men left on the patrolmen's eligibility list at the present time, the commission decided to advertise for applicants for that position. Blum suggested that the counseling depart­ ments of universities and colleges be contacted which have students majoring in criminology who might be interested in coming to McHenry. The board agreed unanimously. Since there is a difference of opinion between attorneys as to who has the prerogative to appoint an investigator for the police department.
