The mayor and four alderman answered the special call, meeting without salary (Kreutzer and Frisby absent) for the consideration of asking the State department for permits to make water and sewer taps on Route 61 for some of the lot owners on the west side of pavement in what is known as the Bonslett sub­ division. Some of the alderman are having many complaints about unlicensed dogs running in droves, destroying shrubbery, littering up lawns with bones and refuse, howling all night and in a few cases biting people as they pass on the street. The mayor first instructed the city marshal, Jack Walsh, to shoot all unlicensed dogs at once. The order was suspended until more publicity was given through the paper and that it would be necessary for owners of dogs to obtain a license and to keep dogs muzzled when outside the home, whether on a leash or not.

(First of a Four-part Series) Public hearings on a proposed plan to restore clean water to the region's rivers and streams-a project estimated to cost $6-7 billion-will be held June 24 , 26, 27, and 28 by the Northeastern Illinois Planning Commission (NIPC). The proposed Areawide Water Quality Mariagement plan represents a 3-year, multi- million dollar effort to deter­ mine how some of the dirtiest water in the nation can be cleaned up as mandated by federal law. According to the Federal Water Pollution Control act amendments of 1972, and the plan must be politically, economically, and technically feasible. The public hearings will hear testimony on whether .NIPC's proposed plan meets this requirement and whether it is on target in its recom­ mendations for regulating polluters, for controlling ac­ tivities that indirectly cause water pollution, and for assigning the various regulatory tasks to lo^al governments. A total fifteen hearings be held on the proposed pi n. The first hearing will be at a.m. June 4 in the NIPC offices, 400 W. Madison street, Chicago. On other following dates, two public hearings will be held the same day, one at 3 p.m. and one at 7:30 p.m. Locally, one is scheduled • June 27 at North Junior high school, 170 N. Oak street, Crystal Lake. In addition to receiving testimony at the public hearings, the commission will accept into the hearing record any written comments sub­ mitted by July 8 to its offices, 400 W. Madison street, Chicago, 111., 60606. Testimony by telephone will be tape-recorded between 10 ajh. and 4 p.m. June 26 through June 30. The telephone number is (312) 454- 0400. A final plan is tentatively scheduled for commission adoption in early July. A series of free public education meetings have also been scheduled by the com­ mission to inform people of the various aspects of the proposed clean water plan. The following meetings will each be at 1:30 p.m. in the commission offices: A general presentation of the proposed clean water plan, plus discussion of local water pollution issues, will be held at 7:30 p.m. May 31 at the Lake Forest City hall, 220 E. Deer- path road, and June 14, Barrington Public Safety building, 121 W. Station street, Barrington. A summary of the 1,500 page plan has been prepared will be distributed while the supply lasts. Persons may obtain the summary, the procedures for the hearings, and any other information by calling Larry Aggens, Mike Chapin, or Marty Moser of the NIPC staff at (312 ) 454-0400. The complete draft plan is on file for public review in offices of * each of the planning departments for Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will counties; in each municipal building; and in seventy-five libraries in the region. During the 3-year course of planning, a total of 1,100 public officials, technicians, citizens, and environmentalists were active in the plan's progress. Two draft plans for each river basin were also prepared and revised before the final draft plan was composed. Upon adoption, the plan will be submitted to the Illinois governor for review and ap­ proval. As part of his approval, the governor will designate certain local governments or management agencies as responsible for implementing the recommendations in the plan. Following his approval, the governor will submit the plan to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) for its review and acceptance. After approval by the USEPA, the plan will provide the basi for the review of federal grant applications for water pollution control projects, certain discharge permits, and other water quality management activities. • , i 4 COMPLETE MURAL-McHenry County college Art Design syideats complete one of a series of murals at the Valley HI Nursing home In HarUand.
