PAGE t - PLA1NDEALER - FRIDAY. DECEMBER I. 1971 CONCEDE CITY PENSION DEFICITS (Continued from page 1) Rt 120, adjacent to the Glosson farm. Attorney Don Trackanbrod addressed the Council, ex­ pressing dissatisfaction with the Council's apparent un­ willingness to act on the petition. The seven lots in question are to be rezoned B-l, commercial, and the Zoning aboard recommended the rrezoning be allowed. I The Council, however, has (delayed taking any action on '.the petition until the lot owners agree to put in city water lines on the property instead of using water supplied by the Lakeland Park Water company. An apparent breakdown in communication was what has caused the lot owners not to contact the city in regard to putting in the city water lines. To settle the issue, the 7:30 p.m. Thursday meeting was scheduled for the Council chambers, where city officials were to meet with the lot owners to determine if the property owners would put in the water lines on a 50-50 cost- sharing basis with the city. Alderman Walther Schaedel suggested that street lighting on Pleasant and Home avenues be increased in the wake of increased vandalism in the area. Recently, someone did about 14,000 damage to the One Potato, Two Potato restaurant by painting a portion of the building exterior blue. The same individual is believed responsible for about ten mailboxes in the area which were painted blue, as well as one home. After Espey said the Police department has a good idea who the offender is, Elizabeth Nolan said that it would be a good time to enforce the Vandalism ordinance, which makes parents liable for damages done by their children. The aldermen unanimously approved plans to extend water lines to the McHenry Sand & Gravel company on W. Rt. 120. The company owners are giving the city $80,000 to use on the project. Several city employees were given merit raises by the Council for outstanding work in their respective departments. Finally, the Council approved Christmas bonuses for all city employees. The bonuses are the same amount as last year.

Business Manager Michael Kelly then explained that the valuation now is $105 million and the 3 percent increase figure would bring the increase to $3,150,000. Kennedy persisted when he asked why the McHenry school district computed on this basis. He continued to say that Algonquin township is figuring a $12 million increase and expressed strong doubt that the Algonquin community is growing four times as fast as the McHenry community. "Maybe twice as fast'\ Kennedy conceded, "but not four times". Kennedy persisted as he expressed optimism that the actual increase in valuation should be known in a couple of weeks. Althoff responded that un­ fortunately, the problem confronting the board is that a referendum must be held this year or it would be necessary to wait a year for additional money, "and the effect is enormous". If the valuation is up as much as Kennedy predicts, Althoff responded, the board will not need to use the money that would be allowed by the referendum's tax rate increase at this time. Several bids were accepted, including Standard Tank Co., low bidder of four, to supply a fuel oil tank for East campus at a cost of $2,601. Others were Werner Schilling for cabinetry, $1,743.09 and Fox Lake Floors for flooring, $1,495.30 for the building trades house. Hall and Eckert of Woodstock was accepted to furnish lumber for the house at a price of $2,930.52. Questioned on any bids by local firms, Kelley said letters had been sent to two McHenry firms and two others and the Hall-Eckert bid was the only one received.
