PAGE 12 - PLAINDEALEE - FRIDAY, APRIL 27,1879 Police Request More Of Budget Police Chief George Pasenelli (above) answers a question concerning he police officers' pay at Monday night's public hearing on the proposed city budget for 1979-80. Below, Patrolman Raymond Donohue passes out the Police association's requests for this year to members of the Council, while Sergeant Patrick Joyce (below, right) addresses the Council. Joyce reported two men on the police department where presently on food stamps and another three would be eligible in May if the officers' salaries were not raised $2,500. The budget prepared by the finance committee included a $2,000 raise for patrolmen and $2,500 for sergeants. The rest of the departments received a 10 percent raise and were reportedly satisfied with the increase. The final budget will be approved at the April 30 Council meeting.

Mayor Stanek asked the Council members to think over the issue. The final budget will be voted on at the April 30 meeting. Several aldermen and the mayor reiterated the fact the city has an "excellent" health insurance program that is "second to none" and more than comparable with any industry around and fully funded by the city. City Clerk Barbara Gilpin, whose salary of $10,000 cannot be changed because it is determined by city ordinance, was granted a raise for being city collector from $5,000 to $8,500 raising her total salary to $18,500. She told the Council the raise puts her nearer the salaries of other department heads in the city. The Clerk's department and the Public Works department were each granted 1 Vz ad­ ditional paid holidays per year, one personal day and Christ­ mas Eve. General fund taxes and receipts will make up $1,569,800 of the revenues for the city for the next year. "The revenues have been stretched as far as they can go," Stanek explained, "and the budget is still balanced." Some discussion was held concerning paying the Zoning board members, and it was reported it can be done if an ordinance is changed. The Council will discuss the matter at a later date. A request by the McHenry Emergency Services and Disaster agency coordinator Betty Smith for certain items needed to be purchased by the Service will be taken from the Civil Defense fund in the budget when necessary. About $2,500 is available for the Civil Defense of McHenry. PROPOSED NEW FACILITIES FOR RETARDED (Continued from page 1) elaborate on that comment and explain how the consolidation of rehabilitation services at McHenry Shores will help improve the adult services. Mrs. Meyer and Lam bourn will inform association members on the status of ef­ forts to construct a group dwelling for 11 develop- mentally disabled adults. Efforts to locate the facility in Woodstock and McHenry have been stymied by citizen action in those communities, but Lambourn summarized the current situation as follows: "The agency recognizes its responsibility to provide residential alternatives and continues its commitment to those needing this type of service." Alan Dominic is the only new department head since the annual meeting a year ago. He has assumed direction of the Adult Services department. He anticipates several new programs during the next 12 months and adds, "I believe our client population will more than double what it is today during the 1980s, and our programs must be efficient and up-to-date as possible." He explained Adult Services must develop to meet client needs with extended programs that link them into the com­ munity. Deaths EXPLAINS DILEMMA - Dr Duane Andreas, right, listens intently at Dr. Ken Falkinham. left, business manager for the Johnsburg Community Unit District explains to school board members present at the April 24 meeting some of the difficulties being encountered on the road to completion of the original construction of the Johnsburg high school. MURIEL E. FOSS Muriel E. Foss, 69, of Route 12, Spring Grove, died Monday, April 23, at Memorial hospital, Burlington, Wise., after a long illness. She was bom Dec. 6, 1909, in Woodstock, the daughter of George and Elizabeth Carr Mentzer. The deceased was a graduate' of Woodstock high school, and worked as a receptionist for area doctors and dentists after her graduation. Nov. 27, 1930, she married Floyd M. Foss. who survives. She is also survived by a brother, Wayne Mentzer of Woodstock and a neice, Mrs. Thomas (Eileen) Kidder of Cudahy, Wise. Visitation was held From 2 to 9 p.m. Thursday at the Ehorn- Adams funeral home, Rich­ mond, where services will be conducted by the Reverend Terry Dufer at 1:30 p.m. Friday. Interment will be in Ringwood cemetery. I Memorials may be made in the name of the deceased to the Richmond rescue squad. JOHN F. DIEHL John. F. Diehl, 85, of 7723 Cedar road. Wonder Lake, died Monday. April 23. in the Woodstock Residence. He was born Sept. 1, 1893 in Germany, the son of Frank and Anna Diehl. May 1, 1948, he was married EXTENSIVE GIFTED PROGRAM IN JOHNSBURG (Continued from page 1) The board heard an update by Dr. Ken^ Falkinham on construction and repairs to the various buildings, all of which have been under study. He mentioned that the roof on Bush school, which up to now was considered to need replacing in its entirety, may only need to be redone over one-third of the building before being roofed. If this turns out to be the case, the savings over the anticipated cost would be $20,000. At this point, Falkinham, prompted by a request of board member Jim Preston, gave a brief breakdown in round figures of projects recently approved by the board. As business manager, P'alkinham attempted to simplify for the board the almost endless delays ham­ pering the timely completion of the original high school con­ struction schedule. The ar­ chitects, still supposed to work on problems of heating, lighting, and noise, will do no more work until the capital development board assures them that they will be com­ pensated. The CDB, a state agency, is withholding funds because of disagreement on past performance. It is hoped that some satisfaction will be forthcoming after the May 1 termination of contracts. John Quick, building trades teacher, showed slides of the various stages of completion of the Building Trades house, and expressed satisfaction with the year's work to date. He will have 24 of his original 42 students returning next year, along with 19 new entrants, and expects the experience of the 24 to pay great dividends. He was most appreciative of cooperation from local people in helping get the program off the ground in its first year. During executive session, it was approved to hire Quick for the summer, to facilitate the finishing of the house, in order that it can be sold in August. The proposed junior high tackle football program, discussed at last month's meeting and referred to the finance committee for its recommendation, will be deferred at least for the coming year, due to prior financial commitments to other programs. A coeducational intramural volleyball program on the junior high level is being dropped due to lack of par­ ticipation. Johnsburg athletic philosophy proposes a con­ sistency of support throughout, by stressing the articulation from elementary level to areas approved for high school participation. With this in mind, a K through fifth grade wrestling program has been initiated, to coordinate with the junior high wrestling program and high school intermural wrestling. M i k e H e i m e r d i n g e r reiterated his hopes for an eventual junior high tackle football team as a backup to the high school program. In the event that this could not be realized, he continues to sup­ port a touch football program, and although there is no con- fernece, he will go all out to provide an eight-game season for those interested. The petition from those interested in the tackle football program seemed to indicate to him a in Cicero to Margaret M. Karun. The deceased was a retired cabinet maker. He is survived by his wife, Margaret; two daughters, Mrs. George (Petronella) Vrhel of Holiday, Fla., and Mrs. Sophia Monteiro, Brazil, South America; three grandchildren; two great-grandchildren; two brothers. Phillip and Francisco of Brazil; and two sisters, Mrs. Lee • Schaefer and Mrs. Petronella Dosantos, Brazil, South America. He was preceded in death by his parents, a brother and a sister. Private services took place Thursday at the Freund funeral home, Wonder Lake, with burial in Oakland cemetery, Woodstock. great deal of community support for such an un­ dertaking. Congratulations were ex­ tended to the junior high band for success in competition, and to the sixth grade girls' basketball team and the eighth grade girls' volleyball team. It was suggested by high school principal Bill Hayes and assistant principal Bob Gough that certain subjects, such as TV production, be considered in the allowable sixth subject category, as music now is, in the effort to spur enrollment in these areas, in which con­ siderable interest has been demonstrated. Following the canvass of votes and reorganization, the election of board of officers resulted in Charles Boak, past board president, and Bobbie Hart, past secretary, being unanimously reelected to these positions. INSTALL NEW ALDERMEN (Continued from page 1) Bolger and Rogers did not seek reelection in the recent city election, and Smith was defeated by Michael Wieser. "I would like to express thanks for myself and the city," said Mayor Stanek. "This has been a very productive Council and you have nothing to be ashamed of." Stanek expressed his gratitude for the years of service the three men gave the city and welcomed the new aldermen to the Council. Bolger was first elected to the Council in 1957 and served consecutively for the next twenty-two years. Smith was first elected in 1961 and served consecutively with the ex­ ception of two years from 1973- 1975. Rogers was a two-term alderman, retired, and returned to the Council a year ago when he was appointed to fill a vacancy when Walther Schaedel moved from the city before the expiration of his term. "It has been 22 pleasant years," Bolger said, as he read a prepared statement and thanked the citizens of McHenry. "McHenry is on the threshold of greatness," he continued, citing the city's improved park system, improved roads, fine schools and churches and the favorable business climate. "We can look to the future with confidence." Praising Rogers as "the George Washington of Lakeland Park" and Smith as "an honest a man as you could find," Bolger had nothing but credit and praise for each member of the Council. He added thanks to City Attorney Bernard Narusis^ Superintendent of Public Works Fred Meyer, Past City Clerk Earl Walsh and present City Clerk Barb Gilpin, Police Chief George Pasenelli and to Mayor Stanek. He listed "giants of the past" for McHenry and reported on important roles played by George P. Freund, Lillian Anglese, Tom Bolger, John Looze and Walsh. "And there are still more giants to come," he added. "There's not much left to say," said Smith as he echoed Bolger's statements. "It's a good feeling to know people appreciate what I've done," added Smith, "I know I've had differences of opinion with nearly everyone, but I was always still treated with respect." "I feel bad about leaving," he continued, as he wished the incoming aldermen good luck. "I leave the Council with a very clear conscience," ex­ plained Rogers, who also echoed Bolger's statements. "Good luck to the past, present and future aldermen." Mayor Stanek read resolutions commending the work done by the three men and all were passed by the Council. When the roll call vote was taken, Bolger passed on the resolution in his honor as did Rogers. Raymond Smith, who throughout his career as alderman prided himself on the fact he never passed on an issue before the Council, maintained that record. "Forget I'm voting," said Smith as he cast a yes vote, "but I've never passed on a vote." Stanek acknowledged the presence of former clerk Earl Walsh and asked him to present the trio with framed copies of the resolution and their nameplate from their seats at the Council table. Stanek expressed his hopes for a reconciliation and "healing of the wounds" as he embraced Walsh, explaining that he had differences of opinion in the past with nearly everyone, including Walsh. "We sure have," Walsh agreed. "I served the city a long time (38 years)," said Walsh, "and I haven't been back since." He said it was an honor to have been asked to present the trio with the resolutions. He added he had worked with the three and they were friends and the type of men who "were not afraid to stand up and be counted." Following the presentation of the resolutions, City Clerk Gilpin swore in the four newly elected aldermen: Jack Pepping for Ward One; George Harker, returning to his post in Ward Two for the third time; Michael Wieser from Ward Three; and Ronald Meurer from Ward Four. The new Council's first order of business was to approve the liquor license applications for 1979-80. New licenses awarded were to McHenry Walgreen agency on Riverside drive and to Dave Service, who was granted the license formerly held by Rhino's on Riverside drive. Service had the license previously when the business was known as House of David. o Alderman Ernest Schooley questioned the application of Richard Jager for a license for Jake's Dead End Lounge. Several years ago, the city revoked Jager's license and the matter was taken to court, where litigation continues as Jager has appealed a lower court ruling upholding yie city's action. "I cannot make any com­ ment that may prejudice the current court proceedings," said Stanek, indicating that any discussion of the matter may have an effect on the pending litigation. New alderman Mike Wieser questioned the cost of the licenses, indicating he felt the price "is quite cheap now." He explained raising the cost of the licenses may be an area to increase the city's revenue and felt the cost was lower than licenses offered by the county and other cities in the area. The Council decided to table the issue until a later date when the matter will be discussed and ample notice would be given to businesses affected if an increase was planned for the following year. Earlier in the meeting, the Council voted to approve the sale of a 1964 truck from the Public Works department to the Village of McCullom Lake for $600. It was explained the village had offered the city the most money for the truck which was no longer of use to the city. The Council discussed the possible sale of old band sheet music to the Crystal Lake Park district. City Clerk Gilpin explained the district in the past had bought the music which the city's band director felt was no l o n g e r n e e d e d . "Rather than leave it lying around," she explained, "we sell it." She indicated the band director had determined what would be a fair price. Stanek thought a local group may have use for the music and if they could match the price the sale of the music would be kept local. The Council expressed no objection to the sale but a final decision will not be made until a formal price is obtained. • Add your own individual touch to prepared foods with a sprinkle of a seasoning blend, r or instance, an Italian herb blend shaken on frozen pizza gives it a truly authentic flavor. • Seasoning blends are sensi­ tive to oxygen, light and heat, so store them in dry, dark places away from heat sources.
