Even some neighbors would like to see B-l for that area, he said. 9 Grossman pointed out to the commission that there were some added business uses along the west side of this section of Route 31 including some doctors' offices, but on the other side, only an animal hospital existed and that had been there for a long time. He added that it is not a necessity to have all B-l along a highway. He would recommend against it as inconsistent with the < comprehensive) plan/ Alderman Michael Wieser asked Grossman what was the planned use for this area. Grossman said they had just finished inventorying the existing uses. Wieser responded by asking if he was aQvare that not one family residential building permit had bijen issued along that part of Rront street for 12 years. \fieser asked, "Do we believe thbt comprehensive plan is in effect now?" Grossman ad­ vised that until the new plan is agiopted the old one is in effect. -A commission member noted t!j Grossman that both sides of a£*street are usually the same zoning, the breaks are at the riiiar lot lines. He didn't think *S this was a residential area. After adjourning the business part of the meeting, Grossman displayed to the planners the work done on new maps for McHenry which he said would now cover 40 square miles. Expansion of the planning area was largely to the west and the northwest. He noted that there had been substantial changes in the development patterns in the last eight years. Grossman also passed to the members suggestions for ob­ jectives and development standards which he reminded them that, although they sounded like it, were not necessarily platitudes. These terms set the tone of the plan. He noted, "To accomplish the social objective that all people have the opportunity to lead healthy, satisfying meaningful lives, several specifics must be assured," and listed a number of goals. He said the goals were silent about some things in the community. Previously, the focus of attention of planning had been on Route 31 but nothing was said about Route 120. Now he sensed more cdhcern for what was going on along 120. Grossman said that county actions had made Route 31 an industrial thoroughfare from Algonquin to McHenry, but he felt there was now a trend to keep residential use close into municipalities. Grossman predicted there y. SUBSCRIBE ToJhe McHenry Plaindealer And Save $8.80 Over t Newstand Price FILL OUT AND MAIL OR BRING TO: McMENRY PLAINDEALER 3tl2 W. Elm St.. McHenry.

He Mid the enlargement of the state park system in this area would have an impact of people on the community. There will be more development outside of the city . For McHenry he could see few changes in the major streets. He urged more green areas and greater use of trees and shrubs by developers. , YOUNG ATHLETE KILLED (Continued from page 1) scheduled to start in center field for the North All-Star team Monday night, July 16, in a game scheduled at Bowen Park. A memorial service was held before the start of that game. Sedar attended the College of Lake County and was an in­ tegral part of the baseball program for two years. On a baseball scholarship, he At­ tended, and graduated from ;Monmouth college. With the Zion team, he had a batting average of .306 j this year, hit three home runs and led the team in walks with 22. According to the Lake County Sheriff's department, Sedar's right arm was almost severed in Sunday's accident and he suffered chest and stomach injuries. He was struck by a boat operated by Roberta Battaglia of Lake Villa as she was pulling a skier. Sedar had been towed by a friend behind a small skiff on the end of a rope when he decided to go to shore. He let go of the rope and said he would swim to a sandbar in the middle of the lake. Besides his parents, Mr. and Mrat Richard J. Sedar of 628 O&k avenue, Lake Villa, he is survived by two brothers and three sisters. SCHOOL DISTRICT 15 ACTS ON TRANSPORTATION (Continued from page 1) government and the school districts. This involves the collection of a wheel tax or city vehicle sticker fee for "each bus operated, cost $10 per bus. The school contends that the buses are owned and operated by school districts, a separate political entity created by and considered a part of the state government, and that the city' has no authority to impose any tax on such a district. Parmer read both resolutions which suggested "...the IASB shall create or support Illinois legislation to prohibit municipal govern- ments...from imposing motor vehicle license fees upon public school districts which co-exist, partially or totally, within the municipality." And "the IASB shall create or support Illinois legislation to prohibit municipal govern­ ments--from imposing any excise or privilege taxes upon public school districts which co-exist, partially or totally, within the municipality." Dr. Farmer said he believed that it was not intended by the legislature for cities to ticipate in school tax and that a smaller unit should not be capable of imposing its will on a larger state' (created) unit. In addition Dorothy Vick, board secretary, asked if the IASB could survey superintendents of other school districts to see if this condition exists elsewhere, and she also asked if the school's other vehicles could be included in the proposed legislative exemp­ tion. McHenry city clerk, Barb Gilpin, in response to an inquiry, advised that the issue arose in the city about two years ago when the city had arrested a bus driver for not having a vehicle tag. The district had then purchased the stickers but had not af­ fixed them, determining to protest the city action in the courts. The Circuit court had upheld the city's right to collect the tax and after the school district had appealed this ruling, the Appellate court, on Dec. 4, 1978, also ruled that the city had a right to require the vehicle sticker on buses when the principal administrative office is within the city. Ms. Gilpin explained regarding the school district's contention that according to common law Vule, one governmental body cannot be directly taxed by another in absence of a specific provision authorizing such a tax. The court ruled that "We find no such rule, however, which would apply to excise and privilege taxes," and the court added that the established concept in Illinois is that all property is subject to taxation unless specifically exempted. Furthermore although the operation of school bus transportation is regulated by the state, tax exemption had not been sought by the legislature.

It is considered a taxing measure, a licensing fee for the purpose of raising revenue. Ms. Gilpin said the city received the copy of the decision May 18, 1979. Inquiries at other McHenry county school districts in­ dicated that Crystal Lake city was not collecting vehicle tax from Joint Agreement Transportation district, ac­ cording to Supt. Bob Blazier. Administration office per­ sonnel at District 200 in Woodstock said there was no vehicle tax in Woodstock and so there was no problem. McHenry officials said they believed the tax on the school buses was justified because they were heavy users of city streets, which the tax is used to maintain.
