Supervisor Edward Buss of McHenry reminded that this was not the first trouble caused by Stahl's recommendations. He said the engineer should be called before the zoning board of appeals and warned. It was agreed that he must rectify his judgment errors or action will be taken to revoke his license. A resolution was adopted calling for mobile homes owners to pay an annual tax of 15 cents per square foot of floor space contained in such home The new action, which imposes a real estate tax for the first time on mobile homes in McHenry county, becomes effective May 1 A Mobile home was described as "a structure designed for permanent habitation and so constructed as to permit its transport on wheels, temporarily or permanently attached to its frame, from the place of its construction to the location, or subsequent locations, at which it is intended to be a permanent habitation and designed to permit the occupancy thereof as a dwelling place for one or more persons provided that any such structure resting on a permanent foundation, with wheels, tongue and hitch, permanently removed, shall not be construed as a mobile home" The board okayed a recommendation of the Sheriff's com­ mittee to accept the low bid of Triton Marine, McHenry, for the purchase of two new boats at a total price of $3,515. The two boats now owned by the county will be sold. The board passed a resolution, to be sent to the 16th Judicial Circuit court of Kane county, expressing its wish to be excluded from the Fox River Water Shed Conservatory district. Homer Barry of Marengoand Mrs. Lee Whitfield of Cary were named to fill two vacancies on the Mental Health board. Robert Fritz of Harvard was appointed to the Conservation board. The board of review was given an extension to May 31 on tax preparation County Board Chairman G. Watson Lowe com­ mented that a further extension probably would be necessary An outside auditor, M. Neary, was present to discuss and make personal comments to the board on the current budget. After approving resolutions for thirteen supervisors who are notreturning to the new board, the meeting was adjourned until 9a m. April 25for the completion of unfinished business. SALARIES UNRESOLVED PROBLEM OF COUNTY (Continued from page 1) with the school authorities," he said. Alderman Ted Pitzen felt the school board should indicate whether or not the plan to donate 5 acres of land was acceptable. He stated, "I feel we are getting close to an agreement between the schools and the developer and we should move ahead and not justsit on this for a couple more weeks." In answer to a question presented by Mayor Donald Doherty as to when the schools would be prepared to return with a response, they reported they would have to present the proposal to their school boards and attorneys. The April 25 date was then agreed upon. In other action, the possibility of another outlet road from the west side of Lakeland Park to Industrial drive and McCullom Lake road was discussed by developers. Aldermen Frank Hromec and Jerry Rogers suggested that instead of the proposed road ending in a cul-de-sac through the industrial complex of their property, if the road would be extended to the property line, the city could then extend the road to connect with Prairie avenue in Lakeland Park. Their suggestion was ap­ proved by developers. The proposed plan also indicated that a road would be con­ structed from McCullom Lake road southwest through the subdivision, cross the railroad tracks north of Maple avenue and connect with Industrial drive. Alderman Ray Smith reminded Council members they had previously stated the pre^nnexation agreement could not be approved unless a road from east to west connected the development with other roads. He felt they must urge the cor­ poration to agree to cooperate on the expense in crossing the tracks As presented by the developers, they would provide a road from McCullom Lake road up to the east side of the tracks and a road from Industrial drive to the west side of the tracks. Smi th said, "I do not c onsider this a completed roadway." Alderman Jerry Rogers commented that he felt the developer should participate in the cost of crossing the tracks because "if there was a ravine in this area and you were to construct a road there, you would have tocover the cost of filling in and crossing that ravine." Edgar agreed this was reasonable and if the city would be responsible for contacting the Illinois Commerce commission to obtain approval for a right-of-way across the Chicago- Northwestern tracks, his corporation would share half of the city's expense in installing the crossing. Discussion was also held on the possibility of making an ac­ cess road from the proposed subdivision onto Maple avenue at a point just west of the creek. Alderman Don Howard said the fire chief feels this would be necessarv to insure a fast route for Cancer Crusade Sends Pamphlets To Every Home McHenry county's Cancer (rusade includes distribution of a pamphlet to every home, a life-saving pamphlet, "Take Time Out For Life." The 1972 Crusade theme, "We Want to Wipe Out Cancer in Your Lifetirfie," comes from the significant advances made by science in the past few years,says Mrs. Hiram Bright, county Cancer Crusade chairman. "Great advances have been made with the use of drugs and the advanced methods of surgery and radiation," she observed. "It also reflects the judgment of many physicians that we are approaching the staging area for a major assault on cancer." Right now local workers under the guidance of Mrs. Bright, Mrs. Carl Dorsch, her county co-chairman; six branch chairmen, seventeen township chairmen and an army of other volunteers are calling on citizens in McHenry county to seek contributions and to distribute the "Time Out" brochure. The brochure urges women to take time for the annual Pap test, and outlines the significant way many lives are being saved because a growing number are heeding this advice. "This test can save lives by detecting cancer before its symptoms appear and when uterine cancer is most curable," said Mrs. Bright. "The test is simple, painless and quick. We've made progress but need to make more." The ACS continues its cancer prevention program in another area of education: Urging people toquitsmoking or better yet, never start. Elimination of the smoking habit would save a tremendous number of lives. Last year 64,000 men and women died of lung cancer. "We can expect the figure to rise and part of our job in this Cancer Crusade is one of education," continues Mrs. Bright. Of every six deaths in the U.S. from all causes, one is from cancer. National death rate from cancer rose steadily until 1950 and since then it has leveled off. Cancer strikes people cf all ages, children as well as adults, but it strikes with increasing frequency with advancing age. COUNTY SALESTAX The county sales tax for December was announced at $36,417.07 at the county board meeting held Tuesday. Four Hurt In Two Separate Auto Crashes The McHenry Police department handled a total of sixteen traffic accidents the past week. Only one resulted in injuries. Wayne R. Konecnv of 4718 Winnebago drive, Wonder Lake, was taken to McHenry hospital by the McHenry Rescue squad after a two-car accident Friday evening about 7:45at the intersection of Rich­ mond road and Washington street. Konecny stated he was south­ bound on Richmond road when he noticed a car making a left turn off Washington street in front of him. He applied his brakes but slid jnto the on­ coming lane of traffic and struck another car driven by Paul H. Steffan of 5406 E. Wonder Lake road, Wonder Lake. Steffan told police he was north-bound on Richmond when he noticed the Konecny auto start to skid into his lane. Margaret Daugherty and six- month-old Matthew Daugherty, both of 7203 Mason Hill road, McHenry, and Clarence Hart of 4612 Tile Line road, Crystal Lake, were taken to McHenry hospital Monday and later released after a two-car crash. State police who investigated said both autos were proceeding north on Crystal Lake road when Mrs. Daugherty stopped to make a left turn. Her car was struck in the rear by Hart. The latter was ticketed for driving too fast for conditions. 13 Supervisors Recognized In Resolutions Resolutions recognizing the service of outgoing supervisors on the county board were ap­ proved at Tuesday's meeting. Some of the thirteen did not seek reelection under the new three-district political setup. Others were unsuccessful in their bids to be seated. The thirteen honored by separate resolutions were James Holmes, Francis Blank, Chris Thaagaard, Eugene May, Roland Neumaier, Ernest Foote, William Rickert, Raymond Schaffer, Joseph Schmitt, Howard Ruth, Howard Vogel, W.H. Russel, and A. Ernest Schroeder. MEANWHILE BACK AT THE COURTHOUSE" emergency vehicles such as fire trucks, ambulances and police cars from the center of the city. Aldermen George Harker and Bolger expressed their opinions that the people on Maple avenue would not want that street turned into a major traffic artery. Stanek commented that he didn't feel people from the development would use the road because it would be easier to get to shopping areas by traveling on Route 31 or Industrial drive from their location. Stanek and Bolger expressed their opposition to this plan. No decision was made on the matter. Further negotiations on the vacant lot required to reach the property off Maple will be studied thoroughly before any decision is reached.
