PAGE 18 - PLAINDEALEH-FRIDAY, APRIL 26, 1974 SUGGEST PUBLIC URGE NEW LAW OPPOSING RTA (Continued from page 1) citizens' group in either' Chicago or Springfield. In their most recent correspondence with the Governor, they also suggested a possibility of an accountability session in the county. Senator Schaffer stated: "When a county votes, as McHenry county did, by a 13 to 1 majority against a proposed transit authority, it is not only unfair to force them into the authority - it goes against the very principals of our American form of government. Both Rep. Hanahan and I are convinced that once the Governor hears our side of the story, he will have to be more willing to help us." State Rep. Hanahan commented: "With the dramatic turn around of Speaker Blair to support to 'opt out' legislation for counties like M9Henry and Kane, the Governor's support becomes even more important. If Governor Walker chooses to support our legislation, we have a real chance of succeeding for the first time." Both Schaffer and Hanahan urged McHenry and Kane county residents *to write the Governor and urge him to support legislation that will allow McHenry and Kane counties out of the RTA. DR.

ROUTE 120 McHENRY,ILL. 815-385-1720 PLANS FOR IMPROVEMENT OF ROAD TOLD (Continued from page 1) State officials advised that construction would be carried on under traffic conditions. One-way traffic would occur while work is in progress and flagmen would keep traffic moving. Temporary run- arounds would be built in locations where vertical curves are cut down or built up in order to increase sight distance. The project is limited to reconstruction on, or nearly on, the existing roadway thereby minimizing the acquisition of aditional right-of-way. Property owners were assured that right-of-way would only be taken where required for earth slopes or to provide adequate drainage. The proposed improvement would not displace any farm building, residences or businesses, according to Department of Transportation plans. Riddle estimated that approximately fifty parcels would have to be acquired for right-of-way or easements before the state could let bids. When asked how the state determined whether to acquire a right-of-way or an easement, officials replied that temporary construction easements are needed while construction is in progress. When the project is completed, the land belongs to the property owner. Right-of- way property is required to improve sight distance and to construct drainage ditches. Right-of-way negotiators from the Illinois Department of Transportation will contact all affected property owners during the summer of 1974. If .no problems arise, bids could be let in September and possibly some type of construction could begin late this fall or early next spring. It was pointed out that all right-of-way purchases must be clear before any construction can begin. Delays in acquisition could delay the project an additional six to twelve months. According to State officials, estimated costs for the project are: Construction, $1,200,000; Engineering, $110,000 and Right-of-Way, $120,000 for a total of $1,430,000. It was noted that funding for the project is to be provided entirely by the state of Illinois. Funds are from the state of Illinois Motor Fuel Tax fund which is obtained from existing 7.5 cents a gallon tax on the sale of gasoline and diesel fuel. Riddle emphasized, "No additional taxation will be placed on anyone along the route or in McHenry county in regard to construction on this highway project." In reply to various questions from the audience, state officials mentioned that: "the cemetery to the east of the Eppel farm would not be touched; some trees along the route would have to be removed but care will be taken to save as MAKE MARENGO FEDERAL YOUR A SAVINGS CENTER many as possible; every driveway will be blacktopped back 15 feet from the highway; hedgerows and vegetation will not be disturbed except where necessary; if fencing needs to be moved, the state will pay the property owner to relocate or repair it but the state does not do the work. When Deputy Sheriff Fitzgerald asked why it had taken four years to get this project completed when it was started in 1969, Riddle replied, "no funds." He reported that the six-county area surrounding Cook county comprises 75 percent of the state's population and 67 percent of all vehicle miles in the state. "However, we do not receive funds to match those figures," Riddle stated. . Sheriff Tyrrell told officials he didn't think the roadway would hold up during another winter. If the project should be delayed until next -spring, Tyrrell asked Riddle what could be done to make the road driveable. - . - Riddle replied that if tye project goes to bid Sept. 1, possibly binder could be put on the road so it would be in good condition over the coming winter. Anyone having a question or comment on the proposed highway improvement plan is asked to submit them to Illinois Department of Transportation, 595 South State street, Elgin, 111., 60120, Attention: Paul F. Riddle. SET BOND FOR YOUTHS IN THEFT ATTEMPT (Continued from page 1) Osage, Wonder Lake, returned home after a three-day absence and discovered his home had been burglarized. Taken from the premises were stereo and television sets. Further investigation is being made to determine the extent of the loss as the home showed evidence of having been ransacked. Alfred Hanschmann of Chicago reported that his summer home at 5620 Sylvan drive, Wonder Lake, was burglarized sometime since last December. Taken from the home were three bicycles, a portable television set, a clock radio, an outboard motor, some toys and about $25 in change. The garage was also altered and an 8-track tape player with two speakers was taken from a boat stored inside. Edward Hansen, owne* of Hansen Marine Service, 3112 Lincoln road, McHenry, reported to county law enforcement officials that his pickup truck had been taken from his place of business for three nights last week. Saturday night, he discovered the truck was missing again. Hansen waited for the truck's return and notified police officers, who stopped the driver and took him into custody. He was Andrew Granger, Riverside hotel, McHenry. Granger was charged with theft and bond was set at $5,000. He is to appear in court May 6.

Senate Proclaims April 30 Day Of Fasting, Prayer "Whereas, intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us," reads a portion of a resolution adopted by the United States Senate proclaiming April 30,1974, as a National Day of Humiliation, Fasting and Prayer. The resolution, modeled after a proclamation made by Abraham Lincoln in 1863, was introduced in the U.S. Senate by Senator Mark Hatfield (B- Oregon). Lincoln asked citizens to unite fqr worship in their homes and churches during the Civil War when the Union cause had reached a low point. Hatfield proposed his resolution at a time when, "We witness a country torn apart with division and lacking the spiritual foundation which would restore its vision and numnw»» Hatfield went on to say in his speech to the Senate, "We, as a people, through our acquiescence to corruption and waste, have helped to create a moral abyss that produces a disdain for honesty and humility in high levels of national leadership." In a response to the action by the Senate, evangelist Billy Graham said, "I think it is high time that we Christians who live in America put more emphasis on prayer and fasting. I'm delighted that the Senate has taken the leadership (Hi this day. I intend to spend most of April 30 in prayer and meditation." The resolution was adopted by voice vote with no debate or opposition. The lawmakers indicated that, because of the nation's failings, it "behooves us to humble ourselves before Almighty God, to confess our national sins and to pray for clemency and forgiveness."

May J Deadline For Tax On Mobile Homes Owners of mobile homes in McHenry county have received bills this week for the new privilege tax, enacted into law by the Illinois Legislature and signed by Governor Walker last summer, Mrs. Audrey R. Walgenbach, McHenry County Treasurer, announced. Deadline for payment of the tax is May 1. The bills cover the period Sept. 1,1973, to June 30, 1974, pro-rated on the statutory annual rate of 15 cents per square foot of area. The new law provides for assessing the tax on July 1 each year, and taxpayers can expect another mobile home privilege tax bill to be mailed to them later in 1974. Approximately 160 mobile home privilege tax bills were mailed to McHenry countv owilers. Mrs. Walgenbach noted that the senior citizen provision in 'the law allows a 20 percent reduction in normal tax. Under the state law providing for the tax, the registration and assessment of the mobile home tax, as with real estate and personal property, is carried out by the local township assessor. Mrs. Walgenbach suggests that taxpayers inquire of their local assessor or the supervisor of assessments in the courthouse if they have questions concerning the tax. Payment of the mobile home privilege tax may be made either by mail or in person at the courthouse. Taxpayers paying by mail should enclose both copies of the tax bill with their remittance.
