THE BOND ISSUE "Dear Editor: "There has been much controversy over the school bond issue during the last /several months. The school administration and the school board seem to take personal offense at the bond issue's defeat. In talking to many people in the McHenry area, it is evident that the school administration, school board, etc., have not gotten the message of the three previous defeats of the bond issue. Tothe best of my knowledge, the majority of the people in the community agree that additional classrooms are needed..They do not seem to agree, however, on the handling of matters. It could probably lie simply stated that the 'no' voters are votes of no confidence. ^ " Possibly, the board of education could explain the bank of 20 to 30 telephones recently high school's West campus. While the bond issue is a grade school bond issue, high school facilities are being used. Who is paying for this? "The site choice leaves much to be desired. According to the . soil maps located in the court house annex at Woodstock for McHenry county, the entire construction site is pink. This means that the site has poor drainage and is generally an undesirable building site. While the school board has stated that they have had engineers survey the site and have approved the site, the choice of the site can still be questioned. Even though the McHenry city sewer bond issue passed, it can be as much as five years before sewers are available to this land site. While the bond issue has passed for the sewer expansion, it could take as long as 18 months for the plant expansion. The planning, financing and installation of the sewer lines throughout Lakeland Park could, factually, take several years more. If the proposed Junior high is completed in 18 months as planned, this would mean that a septic system would have to be installed at high taxpayer expense on a land site with unsuitable drainage. This is a hidden cost factor that can arise at a later date. "While the McHenry area taxpayers may not generally know it, there are several problems ..with the outer walls on three of the present schools at this time. These schools are Edgebrook, the present Junior high and Valley View. The conditions at Edgebrook and the present Junior high are so severe that they have not been able to correct them to date. "The taxpayers must assume that the school boards and the admini str ation, at the time the se buildings were planned, had engineers survey these sites. The result has been unsatisfactory and there is no reason to suppor> 3 that the proposed building site will produce abetter school structure than the existing faulty structures. , rlt is urged that the public consider the> facts and vote no. With the fourth defeat of;the bond issue, it is hoped that the no i.xjI administration will get the proper me-sage in order that relatively maintenance-proof facilities can be erected on a proper site. • "Gertrude S. Barbian" (Editor's Note) --In fairness to all concerned, since there is no other issue of this newspaper before the Saturday election, the Plaindealer has endeavored to find an answer to some of the questions contained in the above letter. Dr. Carl Bergstrom, superintendent, stated that "the ex- McHENRY PLAINDEALER " Established 1875 3812 West Elm Street Phone 885*0110 McHenry, Illinois -- 60050 Published Every Wednesday & Friday at McHenry, 111.

He added that the West campus would serve as election headquarters. An attempt was made to have the installation made at the central administration office, but telephone trunk lines made this impossible. In the* past, the board had established telephone headquarters either in the old high school building or, the central administration office. The installation cost is $15 per phone. We contacted a city official in regard to sewer expansion and extension completion dates. Referring to the statement that "it can be as much as five years before sewers are available to this land site", the spokesman said while it is impossible to determihe exact dates in the future, the fiveyear completion date seemed "too long". He estimated that two years would probably be more accurate. In reference to the "18 months for the plant expansion*', the city official stated that this might be nearly correct.)
