COUNTY ACTS TO CONSOLIDATE ELECTIONS (Continued from page 1) with the following restrictions: l - No public bar or lounge allowed upon the premises; 2 • that it be limited to the present building only; 3 - that alcoholic beverages were to be served at tables only with meals and only during the same hours the restaurant was open; and 4 - a d e q u a t e p a r k i n g arrangements must be made to provide easy ingress and egress to the property. James Divita of Crystal Lake was the contract purchaser of the property in question. Another zoning request was granted by the board. It was the petition of Anthony J. and Helen M. Poss, Roderick L. Velde and Walter G. Kenimer which sought a conditional use for about 7 acres of land located on the east side of Rt. 31, south of Idyll Dell road. They asked the change to use the property for retail sales of recreational vehicles, recreational trailers and related equipment and accessories and also for leasing space to private owners of such vehicles. Board Member Thomas Huemann of McHenry asked for a report at an early date from the Planning commission on the environmental impact study. The County Planning group will pursue the request from the Northern Illinois Planning commission con­ cerning such items as water, sewerage and flood plains.

DISTRICT 15 SEEKS BIDS ON WARRANTS (Continued from page 1) Crystal Lake plan were ac­ cepted. They call for either land or cash donations. Where land is the donation, an elementary school site is listed for minimum site size of 5 acres, with 1 acre per 100 pupils over the minimum site size. A junior high school has a 10-acre limit site and the same acreage per 100 pupils over the minimum. For a high school, the site is 40 acres for 1,000 students. The guidelines state that the location of school site should be approved by the school districts. Should it be deter­ mined that a school site is not needed, an equivalent value in cash will be donated, the amount to be agreed upon by the school district and developer. The amount of a cash donation is to be determined by multiplying the anticipated number of children generated by the development by $500. The cash donation will be divided between school districts involved as deter­ mined by the boards of education. School board members throughout the county have indicated a desire that the McHenry County board take action to set zoning restrictions on such developments. An extensive report was given on the energy crisis as it affects District 15 and ways in which the energy output can be conserved in the various schools.

CITIZEN TREATMENT "Editor: "The Supreme court has passed a new law giving police the right to search you and your car if you're stopped for a minor traffic violation. In other words, as a traffic violator, you are suspect of being a common criminal. "It will be the policeman's judgment of your character, his personal opinion of you that will decide whether you are to be searched. "Article Four of the Bill of Rights of the Constitution of the United States; Right of Search and Seizure Regulated: 'The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.' " "Is it reasonable, is there probable cause to search someone for blowing a stop sign or making a U-turn? I think not. The search can only be based on whether or not the cop likes your face.
