Prairie Grove Village Clerk .ludy, Brims, and com­ mitteeman. Dr Ronald Price "f, On the panel for the dissolution of the village was Charles G Budrek. chair­ man for the Dissolution committee Also on the panel were Steve Aradas and Bill Ganek of the McHenry County Planning commission. Aradas said at the beginning of the meeting the county's presence at the meeting was solely for the purpose of answering any questions that might need clarification in regard to the county. They were not there to take sides Budrek led off the debate by explaining that he cir­ culated a petition calling for the dissolution of the village because he was fed up with the way the village was being run He said that he got 75 percent of the people in the village to sign his petition because they were fed up with the way the village was being run too "People are fed up with the nit-picking regulations, rules and ordinances that will destroy our rural ways." he said "Many people complained about taxes, road maintenance, snow plowing and police protection " Budrek felt that because the policeman only worked 40-hours a week, it was nothing more than a burden on the taxpayers to have a one man police force He said that it was a good idea to have the meeting so both sides of the story could be heard; the meeting would clear up any misconceptions that the people might have. He said that the village boafd was using scare tactics by saying that if the village was dissolved it would open the way to un­ controlled gravel mining in the area Budrek concluded by saying that the village will become too costly for the taxpayer and should be dissolved Len Dressier spoke next and said. "The village was formed to protect our property and our chosen life styles. There have been too many charges and coun­ tercharges which have blotted out the most im- YOU CRN BRNK on it! Presented By STATE BANK of RICHMONB Member F.D.I.C. Q. A friend said he was going to set up an IRA and pick up an extra 1980 deduction. What is an IRA and how could it help him with 1980 taxes since it is now 1981? A. An IRA (Individual Retirement Account) is a way for an employed person, not presently participating in a pension program or profit sharing plan, to create a tax- sheltered retirement fund. The employee sets aside in a special retirement ac­ count 15 percent of total compensation or $1,500, whichever is less, each year. Money set aside in the IRA is deductible on the year's* income tax return Also, all interest earned on this money is sheltered from any income tax while the employee is still working and the fund remains intact. Your friend was talking about an extra 1980 deduction on his income tax because it is not too late to set up an ac­ count. Prior to April 15, you may open and contribute to an IRA account and have it treated as a 1980 deduc­ tion. Come in and discuss it with any of our financial officers. They can help you plan for the future and save on the present. . . You Can BANK On It! portant issue-we must keep the village." He said that if the village should be dissolved it would open the way for un­ c o n t r o l l e d h o u s i n g developments and gravel mining "This village was forced into existence to protect this area from being raped and ravaged by gravel com­ panies," he said. "If the village does not exist, we will not have one word to say in the planning of future housing developments." Dressier insisted that they all must be concerned with what developments would do to the ecological balance of the area and the pollution caused by too many septic systems He said, "The two things that everyone in the village share in common are our property values and the rural lifestyle that we are privileged to enjoy here." He concluded by saying, "We the people of Prairie C.rove will suffer the most if the village is dissolved. The question is not what we stand to gain with the County, but what we stand to lose if we have no village or no control over what transpires in this area." After the meeting Dressier was asked how he felt the meeting went and what he thought the outcome would be April 7. "The meeting was im­ portant from the standpoint that a lot of residents were misinformed about a lot of things. This meeting allowed them to get the facts straight " He continued. "I'm n6t at all confident about the outcome of the election because it is very obvious here tonight that one section is against the other."' As an afterthought he added. "We have a lot of work to do to get the people to truly understand what they're facing I hope that with the new administration coming in as a result of the election it would have a tendency to bring people together with more things like this and more times to talk things over and clarify issues and problems." Budrek was also asked how he felt the meeting went and how he felt about the outcome of the election. He said. "By telling the people the truth it helped clear up some miscon­ ceptions I believe the- village will be dissolved " Taking a moment to think he said, "Whoever wins will be the majority and the others will have to live with it If the village wins I don't know what else I can do. I'll hive to keep on farming and I have a feeling we'll be fighting the village in court constantly. With the new government coming in maybe we can resolve all these problems." You can justify your failure with good excuses but they interest no one else.
