Our goal is to get every potential voter to be involved - join a civic organization. ..join ar-., political party..,identify issues of common eonctern <-7 i so that voting is no longer considered an isolated rite each November."

PAGE 11 - PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, l»8i Dedicate Nunda Town HaTI re- • • • • Maybe the reason ad­ vice is so cheap is because there is so much of it. The Nunda Township Board of trustees is holding an open house and dedication of their new of­ fices and town hall at 3510 Bay road. Crystal Lake, Sunday, Sept. 7. Members encourage interested township residents to attend. Included in the dedication will be the recently com­ pleted addition to the high­ way maintenance garage at 3518 Bay road. Guest speakers include Congressman Robert Mc- Clory, Senator Jack Schaffer and George Miller, executive director of Township Officials of Illinois. Open house tours will be from 1 to 5 p.m., with the dedication program beginning at 2:30 p.m. Light refreshments will be served. Nunda township officials are Supervisor Anita Sherwood, Town Clerk Kathleen C. Harper, Assessor Marilyn L. Janke, Road Commissioner LeRoy Geske, and Trustees Edward J. Hushes. James L. Napier, Janice M. Notz and Frank W. Stampler. The offices and town hall are -housed in a main­ tenance-free precast con­ crete building and complies with federal regulations for the handicapped. The building was financed en­ tirely by Revenue Sharing funds which were invested over a three-year period in order to have sufficient funds. The township oc­ cupied the building Dec. 28, 1979. The township rented space in the basement of 96 Grant street. Crystal Lake for four years prior to that. During Harold Freeae's term as supervisor, the need for a township office building was agreed upon and the board set aside the Seventh En­ titlement of Revenue Sharing for this purpose. Major portions of succeeding Entitlements continued to be allocated for the building in subsequent years. At the Annual Town Meeting in April of 1978 it was proposed that the project be put into the hands of a Citizen's Advisory committee, which was elected that same evening. It was comprised of Lily Baker, Charles J. Budreck, James D. Curran, Joseph J. Kostur and Charles R. Schott. The committee in­ vestigated costs involved in constructing and main­ taining a town hall-office as compared to rental rates at other suitable locations since it was necessary to relocate due to limited space and federal regulations. After viewing the parcels of property available the Citizen's Advisory com­ mittee unanimously recommended that a town hall-office building be constructed on the township land adjacent to the road district garage and that the building not exceed a total of 7,000 square feet. The board of Trustees later reduced the final total to 5,000 square feet, 2,500 on each of the two floors with the supervisor's and assessor's offices sharing the top floor, and the meeting hall occupying the lower level. The first Nunda Township Road district garage was erected in 1952 at its present site on Bay road. An addition to the north side of the garage was started .in 1970 but remained a shell structure for almost a decade due to insufficient funds. In 1979 the concrete floor was poured and the heating system installed, with the final work com­ pleted earlier this year. The township road com­ missioner is LeRoy Geske, who has served in that capacity for 15 years. INDICT DOLL The McHenry County Grand jury indicted Terry E. Doll, 25, Tuesday on murder and robbery charges. He is being held in county jail, Woodstock, on $500,000 bond for the Aug. 9 murder and robbery of Lenea Jura, 65, a neighbor, who was found dead in her residence, an apartment at 391 Terra Cotta avenue.
