The negotiation of an annexation agreement between the City and Faestel Investments, Inc., of Crystal Lake, concerning the proposed Valleybrook subdivision continued Wednesday night as a unified McHenry City Council demanded percent participation in the cost of road and bridge con struction.

The major obstacle to the settling of annexation conditions is a 400-foot (approximate) stretch of road which traverses the park land-open space and Boone creek within the site. The road is part of the proposed extension of Curran road which would link Curran road in the northwest . Lake ia'Wqp in the , southeast, ft has been en visioned that the Curran road will some day intersect with south Route 31 - completing a north-south McHenry bypass. At the May 7 meeting concerning the annexation agreement, David Faestel said the developers would contribute $75,000 toward the cost of building the 400-foot strip of road through the park land-open space. The remainder of the cost, he said, would be left to the City. This stretch of road includes a 60-foot (estimated) bridge across Boone creek. Aldermen Wieser and Pepping were adamant in their insistance that the developer's contribution to the construction of the road and bridge be tied to a percentage rather than a specified amount. Alderman Wieser said he understood the $75,000 to be a donation toward the cost of the bridge and was not in- w«tuded in the cost of the remaining 340 feet of road. "We haven't decided who is going to pay how much for the road," Alderman Wieser pointed out. Haljmar Sundin, president of Baxter and Woodman, the engineering firm retained by McHenry, estimated the cost of the 60-foot bridge at between $150,000 and $160,000 if it were built at today's prices. He said the remaining 340 feet of road would cost about $34,000 to build. Alderman Wieser said his biggest problem was with Pasenelli Named To Head Crime Lab GEORGE R. PASENELLI City of McHenry Police Chief George R. Pasenelli was elected president of the Northern Illinois Crime laboratory last week by the board of trustees and the executive board of the in stitution. According to Pasenelli, the Northern Illinois Crime lab was started in 1968 and currently has 39 municipalities in its membership. Those cities and villages are spread throughout McHenry, Lake and Cook counties. The lab is made up of different divisions which the bridge donation, tie noted that if a half-acre lot sold today for $20,000 (an example), with the "due progress of time", that same lot might sell'for much more in 10 years. "You're (the developers) going to increase the price of the lots to meet the market," Wieser added. "But, you'll be limiting the City to one figure in time. I can't let this City get locked into a figure oimmr ^ Alderman Pepping sup ported Wieser's contention' saying that in five years, "$75,000 might be a mere pittance." Alderman Pepping said freezing the developer's contribution at $75,000 was not a "good thing to do" and suggested either an escalator clause or a per-, centage basis for con tribution. Faestel said the Valleybrook developers should not have to bear the brunt of building the bridge .and the road, which he out, would serve the entire area and not just the development. (Continued on page 17) Repeat Railroad Cutback Support The County board, in meeting Tuesday, failed to change its opinion sup-' porting the decision to discontinue passenger service on the Chicago & North Western Railway tracks to Richmond. The vote was 14 to 8. William Beese, who represents that area on the board, had stressed the importance of freight train service and asked that an earlier opinion of the board be rescinded. . - Beese argued that the discontinuance of passenger train service indicates support for track aban donment. He felt that the ' board's action could result in the Regional Transportation Authority failing to enforce the Interstate Commerce commission's mandate that the C&NW repair the tracks between McHenry and Rich mond. To strengthen his case, Beese explained that a factory now in the process of locating at Richmond has a need for between 700 and 800 freight cars a year. A lengthy discussion, which at times became heated, concerned the 201 Qualification, R&^ew and Selection committee /'In reference to the 201] Waste Water Disposal syjdem McHenry county.

No Relaxed Parking Rules Superintendent of Public Works Fred Meyer relayed a request from McHenry Medical Group employees to the City Council at Monday night's meeting to use one side of Waukegan street for parking while the Green street lot is under con struction. Alderman Schooley commented, "If you open it to one, you'll have to open it to all." Alderman Pepping noted that McHenry hospital negotiated with the high school for the use of the school lot apd wondered why the Medical Group did not do the same. Alderman Wieser pointed out that if there was no parking at the high school, Edgebrook school was only a block-and-a-half away. "How much did the clinic donate to the purchase or improvement of the lot?" Alderman Wieser asked. ••Nothing," replied Alderman Harker. Alder man Harker chaired the meeting as Mayor Slanek had another important commitment. "I am totally against e l i m i n a t i n g t w o - h o u r parking on Waukegan street,1' Alderman Wieser said. "We have to treat everyone equally."
