PAGE It • PLAINDEALER • FRIDAY. LAKEMOOR-FRITZSCHE DISPUTE NEAR CLIMAX «) would be from toilet units in the biddings. The village took the position that since the park was zoned in­ dustrial, they would have to pay the industrial rates. When application was made for the meters in October of 1901, Lakemoor President Richard C. Hyatt said he instructed Director of Public Works Mark Zeffery to turn the matter over to the village attorney because of the money owed. The alleged debt ranges from $40,000 to $50,000 which is owed since the sewer was made available. The village was willing to issue the permits, if the tenants and Fritzsche would sign statements that using the system would not affect the outcome of the litigation. Fritzsche would not. Presiding over the bench trial, Judge Roland Herrmann said it was now his responsibility to determine the "reasonableness, or arbitrariness, of the rste ordinance." "We'll go into what's owed, if anything, at a later date," Herrmann said. It was expected that the matter would be concluded on Thursday, as the Plaindealer went to press. TAKE ACTION TO DISSOLVE VILLAGE (ContliMMd f rom pm§» 1) to Finance committee chairman, Anita Vanderwiel, it took five yesrs to pay off these debts. A flyer circulated by the village states that since May 1 more than 200 tons of grade nine gravel and 77Vfe tons of patch have been spread on roads. Village officials cite the opening of Riley road and the forthcoming seal- coating of Acorn Path as just two examples of their commitment to street maintenance. Rachel said he believes eliminating the village would eliminate a bureaucracy. He charged that only about 20 percent of the people's taxes are used to benefit the people. In addition, Rachel charged residents would realize a savings in taxes if the village were disbanded. In the 1901 levy, property taxes totaled $23,914, or 42 percent of total revenues. Vanderwiel refuted the charges. She said property owners would still wind up paying about the same amount, but to the county, where they would have even less control over where it was spent. Of the $23,914, dissolution would save taxpayers $6,000 per year. There would no longer be a need for in­ surance, an audit fund or maintaining a police department. .. However, if the village rejoins' Sunrise Ridge, dues could be raised from $10, back . to the pre- incorporation figure of $30 annually per property owner. Using the 1900 census, this totals $15,040, an increase of $8,900 over what residents now are paying According to the Illinois Muni­ cipal code, if the Village of Wonder Lake is dissolved, School District 200 and Marian Central JULY IS, 1083 Catholic high school stand to gain the most. It reads: "AH money remaining after the business affairs of the municipality have besn closed up and all the ttafcts and obligations have besn paid shall be paid to the school Ueasursr for the township or school unit... in which the municipality was situated." Duane Zeman said this includss the 20 acres composing Jacobson park and all roads, with tie possible ex­ ception of Thompsonxand Won- dermere roods. Although the county maintained the sections of these roads prior to their annexation into the village, Jim Rakow, county superintendent of highways, said he has no plans as yet to maintain thsm if the village is dissolved. Rachel Mid the code only refers to "money" and does not refer to roads, land or non-monetary assets.

Master A though the Wonder Property Owners association owns a buffer strip between the park and the lake, Andrea noted that does not preclude the owner's ability to use the lake. The village has an agreement with the Master association waiving its water rights. Edward Schrader, a resident of the Village of Wonder Lake for more than 25 years, voiced his concern at the meeting. "What do you want out of a village like this," Schrader said. "It's a shame that something like this has to happen."
