Foss Sr. of 1404 Riverside Drive, McHenry, recently participated in "Teamwork '84*/ He is a member of Fifth Battalion, 10th Marines, Second Marine Division, Camip Lejeune, N.C. "Teamwork '84" was a NATO exercise to test the ability of NATO forces to reinforce and resupply Northern Europe under winter conditions. It took place in the North Sea, Nor­ wegian Sea and North Atlantic areas. More than 150 ships and 300 aircraft from NATO coun­ tries, including more than 30 U.S. Navy ships were involved in the exercise. Other par­ ticipating countries included Great Britain, The Netherlands, West Germany, Belgium, Canada, Denmark and Norway. Although not a military member of NATO, France also par­ ticipated in the exercise. By Angela Borden Plaindealer News Service Hie McHenry County Board once again did an about-face on its building program Tuesday when it approved preliminary plans overwhelmingly defeated last month for an auxiliary facility on the courthouse grounds. The proposal, which asks the county's Public Building Commission to arrange a $2.1 million bond issue for the con­ struction of a 23.000-square-foot building on the southeast corner of the courthouse property, has been before the board five times. The proposed building would house a new garage, the coroner's offices and the county morgue, the county superin­ tendent of education's office and additional storage space. More parking space also would be included. In May, the board agreed to make arrangements to take a proposal for a new building to the building commission. But at the board's July 17 meeting, because a vote to reaffirm the May decision was only 14-8 in favor, a second vote was taken, and there were 22 nays. At a special meeting July 30, the board decided, 16-3, to proceed with an alternative building project. That project involved using year-end surplus funds to construct a garage to alleviate the shortage of space in the courthouse. The vacated space in the courthouse then was to be remodeled as funds become available. Tuesday's 13-7 vote in favor of the bond issue for new con­ struction came after board members were given a tour of the county jail and garage and the sheriff's and coroner's departments, all of which are said to be in need of additional space. Board members opposing the bond issue cited the resulting increase in taxes as their main concern. The issuance of $2.1 million in bonds would raise the county's tax levy by 2.7 cents on each $100 of assessed valuation, meaning approximately an additional $6.70 on a home with a value of $65,000 after the required homestead exemption and average assessment. To prevent an increase in property taxes, at its special July 30 meeting, the board decided to use the year-end balance in the general fund to construct a county garage and, on a motion which passed 15-2, also approved the construction of a storage facility on the county's Valley Hi Nursing Home property in Hartland. During the special July meeting, McHenry County Auditor A1 Jourdan warned the board not to "overextend" funding from the year-end italance in the general fund. According to July reports on the county's financial condition from McHenry County Treasurer Gary Verdung, the end-of-the-year baiance was approaching $2.5 million. Ac­ cording to Verdung, the county usually hopes to have about $1.8 million mi hand at the end of each year to cover bills from the closing budget year. Jourdan told the board Tuesday that it had taken about three years to accumulate that balance. He said the board should take into consideration the cost of planned new telephone system, estimated at $200,000. Ed Buss, chairman of the board's Courthouse Operations Committee, emphasized to the board that the year-end balance is not a "surplus" as some members perceive it. Buss called on the auditor to explain the situation. Jourdan told the board that the year-end balance was not "actual surplus money." He said the county needs funds for expenditures up to two or three months after the close of the year when incoming revenues are low. According to Jourdan, the county requires about $800,000 per month to operate and about $2.3 million should be held over to cover those operating expenses. The board on Tuesday upheld its decision on the construction of a pole barn at Valley Hi to house the sheriff's finger­ printing unit and for critically- needed storage space. The board also agreed to the renovation of a Valley Hi bam loft to accomodate bulk storage for the sheriff's department and storage of less critical county records. These construction costs will come from county funds with an estimate for the renovation not to exceed $3,600 and for the new barn not to exceed $20,000. MOLLY MILLIGAN ItaL Your Home Decorator' © 1994 Patty MOHg an Syndicate PRINTS CHARMING Dear Molly MiUigan: I don't know why I gravitate to prints but I do. I want to put several prints in the same room, but I don't want it to look confusing. What are the rules of the road? AH, Mountain View, WYO Dear Ali: Three patterns to a room is generally a good rule to follow. And there should never be more than one bold pattern in any room. Select your boldest pattern first and use it in your favorite part of the room. You might use it near a beautiful bay window or an antique wingback chair. Choose a pattern that has similar lines as your furniture or architecture. If your furniture has many curves, such as Victorian furniture, then a pattern with like curves would be a natural choice. If your pattern isn't too busy, you can use it in more than one area. Your second pattern should be smaller and more subtle than the first. As a rule, secondary prints pick up two or three of the same colors as the primary print. The third choice should be even smaller than the second. It should be used as an accent, such as on a footstool or as'trim. The above paragraphs may seem to contain a lot of "shoulds" but there are exceptions to every rule. When in doubt, contact your home.decorator. She should know. Dear MoNy MiHigan: What is the best way to hide small cracks and irregularities on my dining room walls? Flowered wallpaper seems too feminine for my taste. Jim, Dundee, IL Dear Jim: If roses aren't your cup of tea, I suggest you consider the crisp, tailored look of a geometric print wallpaper. Stripes, plaids and certain abstract prints work well at hiding wall imperfections. Papers with diagonal patterns increase the feeling of space. Textured wallcoverings, such as grasscloth, linen, and burlap are especially suitable for disguising wall irregularities. The thicker the wallcovering the easier it is to hide ugly wall blemishes. Burlap and rough linen provide an informal solution, where a fine-textured fabric would be better suited for a sophisticated look. Relief wallcoverings (papers in which the pattern projects from the background) are clean, neat and interesting. Once used for commercial interiors, reliefs are gaining in popularity for use in the home. Texture as well as charity covers a multitude of sins.
