PAGE 10 - PLAINDEALER -WEDNESDAY. MAY 10, 1978 r I McCullom Lake Mary Jo Farrell 344-1575 "Play Ball" | gWay Never Be 'Called Out It seems as though" this illage is suffering from severe thy. Just last week I printed a warning that there would be no girls' softball unless some girls got in gear. This week, it's the boys' little league that's in danger of ex­ junction If you are interested, JBun over to Bittermann's house at 4907 W. McCullom Lake road, or to Sarabia's house, at 5113 Fountain, and sign up now! There has, to their credit, n some interest shown by the boys, but unfortuantely, their parents haven't been quite so cooperative The league needs a president, a oach, and someone to help Caren Sarabia with the book ork. If there is no response to is plea, there will be no little ague in the village this year. This seems really sad to me, ?Kince the boys really want to Gplay ball and enough adults jggon't seem to care. C'mon, you ^parents, don't you have a few ^fiours a week to spend for your ^jjids? SPRING CLEAN-UP Jpl The annual McCullom Lake ^spring clean-up will be held the *j?3ieekend of May 13-14. The ^Jumpsters, just like last year, >£jvill be positioned around the j^illage in various convenient •^Tocations. You can't miss them, they're really big. They will be in place for the. entire weekend, so bring all tour junk and dump it into a dumpster. If you have big, bulky stuff, in the interest of conserving space, break it up or _ > disassemble it so that more will Mt into the dumpsters. This icludes things like swing sets « °nd such. E If you are elderly or infirm, 8 you can call Jerry Raycraft or B Kurt Weisenberger, and 3k* arrange to have your rubbish picked up. Do not call them just because you don't have a car or truck big enough to haul your junk - that's your own problem. This is your big chance t&gfet rid of all the junk that'was covered with snow all winter and is now all nice and tacky- looking in your yard. The debris ordinance will be en­ forced, and tickets will be issued to residents with junk sitting in their yards after the clean-up This is for your benefit, and the village is footing the bill, so take ad­ vantage of it and clean up your house! PLEASE HELP As the old joke punchline goes "no tickee-no washee", and thats about the story for the dredge. The pledges are just about at a standstill, and the fact is, no pledging-no dredging. It costs money to run the dredge, and if you don't send in your pledge, there will not be enough money to run it. The McCullom Lake Conservation club, which has members on all sides of our lake, needs your support. They are asking that each household using the lake pledge at least $50. This is not a lot to ask when you think of all the good the dredging will do. Clean water to swim in, healthy fish, and a nice lake. Do your part, don't delay, send in your pledge to the McCullom Lake Con­ servation club, c-o James G. Raycraft, 2712 N. Eastwood drive, McHenry, 111., 60050.

CELEBRATION .'Don and Lois Parenti celebrated an unforgettable thirtieth wedding anniversary May l, with celebrating going on from early morning till past the actual anniversary date. The day started out with a Mass of Celebration at 8 a.m., followed by a champagne breakfast at Parenti'^ home for close friends and relatives. Don and Lois considered this the big party for the day, so imagine how surprised they were when they walked into a "quiet dinner" at a local restaurant and were greeted by thirty friends and relatives Dawn Miller, the instigator of this whole production, can feel doubly happy, not only did she make a lovely party for her parents, but she actually surprised Don Parenti, old "Snoopy" himself! With all the people that the party planners had stuffed in houses around the village that day, Don didn't suspect a thing! SPECIAL NOTE To Barbara Caron-we all hope your "ouchie" is better soon. Think of all the fun in your future! BIRTHDAYS Only one birthday this week, and it belongs to Diane Reimer, who celebrates her birthday May 13. Hope you have a happy day.

Payments Offered For Diverted Acreage McHenry county farmers who participate in the 1978 feed grain set-aside program can receive payments for volun­ tarily diverting additional acreage, Jim Lucas, County Executive Director of the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service (ASCS) reported. The regular ten percent feed grain set-aside provisions remain unchanged. "The additional diverted acreage must equal ten percent of the 1978 acreage of corn for harvest," Lucas said. Also the 1978 acreage of com may not exceed the 1977 acreage of that crop. The payment for corn will be $.20 per bushel times the farm yield established for corn, times the actual corn acreage planted for harvest. Lucas said farmers will receive one-half the payment when they sign up. "The 1978 acreage of NCA crops, required set-aside, voluntary diversion, and any wheat grazing and hay acreage for payment cannot exceed the farm's normal crop acreage," Lucas said.

The 1970 State Constitution contains a tool that might be used to improve roads in unincorporated subdivisions, reports State Rep. Cal Skinner, Jr. (R-McHenry County). It's called special service area financing. The new constitution and subsequer^enabling legislation -Hows county government the lexibility of providing different types of services to different parts of its jurisdiction and to tax property owners accordingly, Skinner explains. Two ordinances must be adopted by a county board, one proposing establishment of the special service area and the other finalizing it. In the period between passage of these two ordinances, a public hearing must be held and sixty days allowed for a petition to be circulated by voters and property owners who oppose the service area's establishment. If a petition in opposition is filed bearing the signatures of 51 percent of the proposed area's registered voters and 51 percent of its property owners of record, the proposal is killed for two years. If no petition is circulated, or insufficient signatures obtained, then corporate authorities are free to pass a second ordinance finalizing the special service area. To date, only one in four special service area proposals have met with sufficient taxpayer resistance for a blocking petition to be circulated. No petition has yet obtained enough signatures to kill a proposal, however. The ordinance in question may provide for: (1) the sale of bonds to finance capital improvements, such as subdivision roads; (2) the annual levy of taxes against properties to finance services, such as road maintenance; or (3) both of the above. The second ordinance is filed with the county clerk, and in each year that the special service district remafths in effect, the county clerk will ascertain the tax rate needed to meet debt service and other anticipated expenses of the special service area, as both the assessed valuation and annual costs for the area go up or down. If bonds have been issued, the county clerk is required to levy whatever tax is necessary to meet debt service. Otherwise the ordinance establishing the special district must contain a maximum tax rate. Each property owner in the special service area is taxed at the same rate and the tax paid will be directly proportional to the value of his or her property, regardless of the benefit he will receive from the improvement or service. For further information, Skinner suggests contacting David Skora of the Illinois Department of Local Government Affairs, 160 North LaSalle Street, Chicago, 111., 60601. The phone number is 312- 793-4856. Sunnyside Area Betty Messer 344-2494 I YOUTH ! ON THE I • ̂ MOVE !

New Squad Car Bears Village Emblem Replica Have you noticed the emblem on the new police squad car? * The new squad car carries the village emblem and is designed after our bicentennial village sticker which was adopted as the village emblem at the March village meeting. VILLAGE MEETING Tuesday, May 2, was the regular monthly meeting of the village of Sunnyside. The village now holds a second meeting on the third Tuesday of the month, also. Meetings are scheduled the first and third Tuesday of every month at the village hall, 4206 Wilmot road, at 8 p.m. Public notice will be posted announcing a raise in building permit fees for the village. The next subdivision to be coming into the village of Sunnyside for annexation will be Springdale. That property will probably come in at the June meeting. Plans are being discussed to lay out the playground area on the village property. This five- acre plot will also house the city hall. With the help of some interested residents, hopefully the playground will be in use by early summer.
