Marion Olsen Lakemoor village board ~ on two Revenue bonds recently, totalling up to $12 million for two Sullivan Lake development projects^ ' An $8 million bond issue ap­ proval was given to the Sullivan LB Mall Associates for a planned discount shopping mall on Route 120, east of the Lakemoor business district. And up to $4 million in bonds were okayed for the Lakemoor Buflmng Associates covering other commercial enterprises. The two projects are part of the 500-acre Sullivan Lake residential and business development recently annexed to the village. Village Attorney Michael Poper emphasized that the bond approval in no way constitutes any indebtedness or financial responsibility for the village. Industrial Revenue Bond ap­ proval assists a developer m obtaining funds at a lower in­ terest rate. Poper added, "The approval will help to bring business and employment to the village." President Richard Hyatt reported that negotiations are in process with the Island Lake Sanitary District for providing sewer service to the Sullivan Lake development. On a related note, Attorney Poper advised the board that tax bills for villagers will go down as the development grows because village indebtedness will be spread over more residents and businesses. In other business. Village President Richard Hyatt reported that discussion and work is continuing on a grant application to improve the Council gives boost to new hospital by Anthony Oliver The further development of the Northern Illinois Medical Center site received a shot in the arm from the McHenry City Council Monday night as aldermen unanimously approved four requests. First and foremost among the requests was the passage of an inducement resolution for $2 million in industrial revenue bonds. The resolution is the first step in the issuance of the low- interest bonds. The $2 million will be used to construct the professional arts building, adjacent to the hospital. Hospital Attorney Jeffrey Ladd said the plans were for a 24,000 square foot (estimated) building to be built now, with a similar building to be added as the demand dictates. The council voted to accept a 25-foot easement along sewer and water lilies and also approved recapture agreements for properties which tap onto the lines in the future. City Attorney Bernard Narusis explained that the hospital pays for the benefit it derives from the utilities and the balance is recapturable. The hospital funded 75 percent of the utilities and the city paid for the balance. The council accepted the dedication of two through- streets on the hospital property and granted variations to allow berming and planting in the right-of-way. The variations were necessary because the city does not allow trees in the right-of- way. Aid. Raymond Smith (3rd) expressed concern that other people might want to plant trees in the right-of-way as well. Narusis pointed out that the "hold-harmless" clause, agreed to by the hospital, said the hospital would either pay to remove any plantings or reimburse the city for doing so, should utility work require it. The hospital will also bear the cost of replacing any plantings. In another matter, the McHenry City Council was split A look inside...

The book is a promotional tool used to illustrate the qualities of McHenry to interested persons and businesses. ° A special committee, comprised of Aldermen Elizabeth Nolan (1st), Edward Datz (2nd) and William Busse (2nd), reported that the city had two options. The first, favored by Nolan and Datz, was a two- page promotional ad at a cost of nearly $4,000. Busse urged council approval of a one page ad at a cost of about $2,000. , The council agreed that the city should be represented in the book and opted for the one-page ad. Ms. Nolan said, "This is the one time the city does any advertising and we feel it's to our benefit to put our best foot forward." Busse argued, "My sole purpose is one of cost. Why buy a Cadillac when a Chevy will do? A one-page ad can be just as effective as a two-page ad. We're tax supported. We should save some money.'1 Aid. William Bolger (1st) made the motion to approve the two-page advertisment. Voting in favor were Aldermen Bolger, Nolan and Smith. Voting against Tentative agreement in MCC talks by Ken Wysocky Shaw-Free Press News Service When David Murphy pledged last Thursday to make the stalled McHenry County College teachers' contract talks a top priority for the new board of trustees, he really meant business. After about four hours of negotiations, the MCC board and the McHenry County College Faculty Association Sunday evening reached a tentative contract settlement, resolving in three days what both parties had wrangled about for nine months. The settlement is tentative, pending MCCFA ratification and board approval of the contract. The MCCFA was to meet on Tuesday and the board will meet in a special session Nov. 28. into the system. The correction should substantially reduce high sewage costs which are now being borne by the entire village, he said. Trustee C. Ed Godt noted that delinquent sewer hook-up ac­ counts are being cleared up rapidly as the village pursues payment and takes appropriate court action. Hyatt further reported that the McHenry County Sheriffs Department has cracked down on juvenile vandalism in town. "Residents should not have to live in fear of 13- and 14-year-old punks," he said. Attorney Poper, in an ad­ ditional legal report, said that two of four pending court cases against Fritzscbe Industrial Park, Inc. have been dismissed by the Appellate court and wfll be returned to trial court. One case involved alleged allowing of water to collect in open, rusty tanks causing mosquito breeding and other health hazards. The other cases are also alleged violations of village ordinances. In other action, the board authorized purchase of a new typewriter at $650 and a one- year service contract from Lake County Office Supply.

Hyatt also said that problems in the northwest corner of the village are causing elevated sewage bills.

Aid. Datz was absent. Busse then made a motion to approve a one-page advertisement, which passed 5 to 2. Aldermen Serritella, Smith, Busse, Nolan and Bolger voted in favor. Aldermen Snell and McClatchey voted against. At the request of Aid. Smith, Mayor Stanek and the Public Works Department will be looking into a solution for a sewage problem that recently occurred at the city garage. Smith explained that he had noticed raw sewage overflowing a bin near the garage and expressed concern at the potential hazards. The bin, which has a drain and a canted floor, is used to hold the contents of the Aqua-tech truck, which cleans city sewers. The drain takes water runoff to the treatment plant and the solids are hauled to a suitable dumping site. Mayor Stanek commented that he had never seen it like that before when he investigated the report. The mayor ordered that dumping be curtailed until a solution to the problem is found. Recognize three youths for action in emergency In a time when the prevailing attitude is to "not get involved," three McHenry area youths showed they could, and would, get involved. Shawn and Ronald Raiford and Stanley Parlow were presented "Certificates of Recognition" by the McHenry Police Officers' Association (MPOA) at Monday night's council meeting. Off. George Erkenswick, MPOA president, said the certificates were presented to the three because of their quick and appropriate actions in connection with the drowning death of Edward Sasek Nov. 12. "It shows us that these three boys could, and did, act in a responsible manner," Erkenswick said. Chief Pasenelli commented that the youths discovered the body while fishing near the Pearl Street bridge and immediately notified police. He said the youths stayed at the scene and tried to help as much as they were able.
