Exclusive Early American Furniture Shoppe Lakemoor-Lilymoor Area Margaret Karas 385-4934 Committees Ask For Ideas Two committees are asking for ideas from residents as to how our area is to be developed or not developed within the next ten years. The Planning committee, chaired by George Garbacz, and the Zoning committee, under Norman Morrison, are. working on a plan that will incorporate the wishes of the people within a mile and a half radius of Lakemoor. What do we want our community to be in 1991? Without a formulated plan proposed by the committees and adopted by the municipality of Lakemoor, our area is open to any type of activity or business venture. Will part of this area remain agricultural? Will mining be allowed without our approval? Will developers build high rise condominiums, or will there be a land-fill project, or a girlie-guy playmate strip? Without a comprehensive plan adopted by Lakemoor, the one and a half mile radius around Lakemoor can be developed without any restrictions from our community. The committees meet every Monday evening at 7 at the Municipal building in Lakemoor. What our community will become will depend upon each of us letting our visions of the future be known, so they may be considered in the final draft of the ten-year Irian. LILY LAKE LAYOUT At the monthly meeting of the Lily Lake Conservation Club, Inc., president George Garbacz briefed the small group of members on the possibility of applying for a grant from the Illinois Environmental Protective agency.

At the time the club is financially able to resume the dredging process, the machine must be in good working •con­ dition. The next five years will be the turning point in the life of Lily Lake. Without the removal of the silt, the lake will be well on its way to becomftg a nature refuge-a swamp area without the pleasure of a body of water for fishing, swimming and boating. Which will it be? Will you help? Come to the meeting Feb. 4.
