PRESENT NEW TRANSIT PROPOSAL (Continued from page 1) stress it's very much preliminary." Szakos explained that there will now be a six-to-eight month review period, during which time, RTA members will be available to discuss the, proposal with various groups and government officials. After that, public hearings will be conducted, in which county residents will have the opportunity to express feelings concerning the recom­ mendations, and to possibly suggest alternatives. The fare schedule for the county plan has not been for­ malized as yet. However, for purposes of estimating costs, Szakos explained that he assumed a ride from Wonder Lake to Crystal Lake would cost sixty cents, a ride from McHenry to Crystal Lake would cost forty-five cents, and a ride' from one point in McHenry to another point, while the bus is on its route to Crystal Lake, would cost thirty cents. Essentially, the fare schedule is based on thirty cents cost for a ride within a city, and fifteen additional cents for each city a rider goes to. The bus service will not be a self-sustaining operation ac­ cording to Szakos, but will be subsidized by the RTA. Szakos will appear before the Woodstock City Council next month, but gave no indication that he has been asked to ap­ pear before the McHenry City Council as of yet.

CITY MAKES $105,000 BID FOR WATER COMPANY (Continued from page 1) hydrant on Rt. 120 in the area served by this system. "I feel strongly," Harker added, "that the price we offer to pay is somewhere between $90,215 and $135,000, always keeping in mind that if we were given the water company free tomorrow, that we're going to have to spend an awful lot of money to update the system." One important factor directly affecting the purchase price was touched on during the meeting. Each city official was given a copy of a letter, ap­ parently from the En­ vironmental Protection agency (EPA), which listed a. sub­ stantial number of im­ provements which Mathews would have to make in order to come into compliance with EPA guidelines. According to the letter, the Lakeland Park Water company is presently deficient in a number of areas, with expensive improvements apparently being mandatory. Noting this, Harker said, "Let's face it, T.P. Mathews isn't bargaining from a com­ pletely independent position. He faces a variety of court cases..." Alderman Bill Bolger questioned whether the EPA would enforce its letter. "If it does, then he's got a hot potato," he added. Bolger continued, recalling that it was the city of McHenry which did the negotiating of the purchase of the water com­ pany, years back, when it was offered for sail by the now defunct Robino Ladd cor­ poration. The price at that time was $67,500, and when the city became entangled with 'inner' fighting, Mathews stepped in and purchased the company for the above stated price. Edward Datz, second ward alderman, wondered if the .purchase price shouldn't be based, at least partially, on revenues generated, rather than just basing it on the value of the present system. Stanek said that "you can't separate revenues from values. They're related." In connection with an­ ticipated revenues, there was some discussion on im­ plementation if, and when, the city's offer is accepted. The consensus of city of­ ficials appeared to be that the city would keep the two Lakeland Park company wells as standbys, to be used only in emergency situations. There was also some discussion about fees assessed Lakeland Park residents, since almost none of the homes have water meters. Homes presently using city watfer supplies are all metered. There was one cautious voice during the discussion, that of Ernie Schooley. His concern centered around the offer of $105,000. "I don't think T.P. Mathews will accept it," he said. "I'd have to go a little higher...but not more than $135,000." However, Schooley did vote 'yes', along with the six others, when the vote came to offer $105,000 for the water company. The next move is up to T.P. Mathews. Driver Rolls Into Fox River; Escapes Unscathed A McHenry man was arrested for driving while in­ toxicated Monday night after driving his automobile off of Bull Valley road and into the Fox river in McHenry Shores.
