COMMERCIAL FUTURE OF CITY AFFECTED BY PLAN Last week an article reviewed the accomplishments of the McHenry Plan commission during the past year, and dealt particularly with the plans as they will affect the residential future of the community. This week we will cite some of the instances in which the commercial future of McHenry is affected. The report of the commission recommends removing "through" traffic from the business district by re-routing Rt. 120 on a pair of one-way streets and extension of Rt. 31, north from Rt. 120 along a new alignment to connect with the new freeway. Another suggestion is to increase ease of traffic circulation through the improvement of the three principal intersections, improving Third street and Court to make a one-way Another provision calls for pair with Green street. major parking areas for existing facilities at the Riverside Drive, Green street and Elm street retail centers. The commission also suggests re-locating and re-aligning various business activities into definite zoning districts for retail, commercial, recreation, service and regional service activities. Adding attractiveness to the area is suggested through landscaping, covered walkways, and utilization of Boone creek as a traffic generator. No woman will likely deceive you about their age, but many will try. 11 Reasons To Sm U» B You A Water System or Weill 1.
