At Valley View, Principal Edmund Sobbtkiewicz claimed credit for originating the district's enrichment programs and noted 377 enrollees took advantage of three after-school sequences of courses. He said attendance performance was the highest in the district, 94.8 percent. Twenty-seven students achieved perfect attendance. Twenty-five trees, funded by the PTO, were planted on Arbor day to serve as windbreaks. The PTO has also provided Weekly Readers and Scholastic magazines; purchased encyclopedias, and presented^OOO to the classroom teachersyfor programs for the 1983-84 year. A summer reading program is being offered for students in grades 2 to 8. , At McHenry Junior high school, Principat Oscar Sola praised the PTO for raising $8,400 for various programs and purchases from sponsoring a model car show to purchasing water faucets, a stencil cutter and a mimeograph machine as well as physical education equipment. The PTO members are also planning to cook a dinner to honor eighth grade graduates, he said. He noted student Carrie Roach's third {dace award in a Law Day Essay contest. In addition, 34 percent of students earned grade point averages of 3.0 to 3.4 and 9 percent, 3.5 or better. Notable band activities included combined performances of the two junior high bands, formation of a jazz band and an outstanding 1 plus rating by student Tony Schmitt in a solo contest. Nine students participated in a regional honors band performance at Johnsburg high school. At Parkland Junior high school, Principal Don Toole reported a 94 percent attendance record with 33 perfect attendance students. Assertive Discipline was adopted at the school with good results, he said. Rules and regulations were sent to parents, and students responded to a consistent policy, he added. Student Brian Nemtusak par­ ticipated in the Chicago Tribune spelling contest, attaining second place in the district, third in the county and tenth place in the state finals. The school's entry in the Illinois Mathematics league contest reaped rewards, also.

The issue is expected to be ad­ dressed at a meeting in the near future. In another sidewalk matter, the council approved a request from the developers of the 88-unit to build sidewalks on Orleans drive within the property line. Building in the property line allows the developers to include the cost of sidewalk construction in their financing arrangement. George F: Cone, 701 Lillian, McHenry, appeared to ask the council to remove the stop sign at the three- way intersection of Lillian and Sioux lane. Cone said Lillian had become a through-street and the intersection was very noisy, with many vehicles skidding to a stop because the drivers did not see die sign, racing from the sign if they did see it and squealing brakes, which on some vehicles is normal. He said the addition of apartment buildings in the area, with more scheduled for construction, reduced the likelihood of people using Lillian as a speedway. "It (Lillian street) used to be a racetrack, but that just doesn't happen anymore," Cone said. Aid. Elizabeth Nolan (1st) said, "I remember when we put it in. We had an appeal from the residents for the safety of the children." Cone said there was a park nearby and commented that children should not be playing on Lillian street. Aid. Frank McClatchey asked, "What about those two accidents oefore . I have 110 signatures from your neighbors who want it kept." Cone supplied McClatchey with a ,, petition of his own bearing signatures from those who wanted the sign removed. In response to a question from Aid. William Busse (2nd), McHenry Police Chief George Pasenelli said that although no traffic study had been done, records showed that there had not been a single accident there in the two years since the sign was put in. "Both parties have a legitimate complaint," said Smith. "Maybe it's" up to the police to watch the area a little closer. It needs attention, but I don't know if removal is the answer." Stanek supported Cone, saying Lillian was a through-street. "On a through-street, do you stop traffic at a three-way intersection?" the mayor asked. Snell disagreed. "We have two lanes that widen into almost four. I think it needs something there and I, for one, do not consider it a true through-street," he said. A motion to deny the Cone request received unanimous support from the council. Aid. Snell asked that the Police department look into the feasibility of stop signs, at Oak and Shore drive and Beach and Bonner, both in Lakeland Park. In other business: --After executive session, the council voted to approve the mayoral recommendation of Richard Orton, 51, of Anne street, McHenry, as shop foreman in the Public Works department effective June 1. Orton replaces Richard Weber, who is retiring. --Mayor Stanek reported that Illinois Coil Spring (ICS) had tem­ porarily failed in its bid for a grant from the Illinois Department of Commerce and Community Affairs. Two other grants, for Pioneer center and me Green street force main, are pending; - Bolgar noted that some restructuring of the application could make the ICS grant viable. --The council honored retiring Aldermen David Gelwicks, Jack Pepping and Ronald Meurer. --A fence variation was approved for Hank Rodiek, 3200 Biscayne, McHenry. --The council approved payment of about $24,000 to Melahn construction for Bull Valley road utilities work and approximately $6,000 to Northeast Contracting for the Riverside drive- Venice water main work. --Roof repairs at sewage treatment plant buildings were authorized at a cost of $2,350. --The council approved the con­ struction of a seawall at the Riverside drive beach at a cost of $2,900.
