PACE *« - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESD PARENTS IN ANpRY APPEAL OVER DISMISSAL PROCEDURE (Continued from page 1) said. "It might have been a hasty decision as to how fast the whole thing worked, but it was not a hasty decision as to the evaluations." Parsley, who has been at the school since its opening in 1959, has filed an appeal with the Rockford diocese because the board did not follow proper channels. "Whether I get my job back or not, it's important for anybody in the future," Parsley said Area Board President Arthur Holt said the board intends to reconsider Parsley's position. Hartlieb commented that he plans to continue his association with Marian Central but added, "...it wouldn't be Tair to comment until a contract is tendered" ZONING BOARD SPLIT ON NEW HOUSING COMPLEX FOR ELDERLY (Continued from page 1) A condition of the financing through IHDA is a requirement that the housing be made available to elderly people needing assistance in paying rent. Buckley tesitifed that the rent for the proposed development was expected to be in the $450 per month range The residents, he said, would pay 25 percent of their monthly income toward the $450, and the rest would be made up by- funds from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). If 25 percent of the resident's monthly income should be greater than $450, they would receive no assistance from HUD Upon questioning from ZBA mem­ bers Kupstis and Cuda, Buckley said the government, in effect, guaranteed that the rent-subsidy money would be forthcoming. "The 75 percent funds have been guaranteed, it would require an act of •Congress to change it." Buckley said. Also commenting on money. Buckley told the ZBA that IHDA regulations would permit no more than a six per­ cent profit on the development. The building, Buckley pointed out. would be managed by an outside management firm, which would also be responsible for selecting the residents, according to criteria published by IH DA. The land planner commented that while it cannot be required that residents come from the local area, preference can be shown for local people Zoning board members also questioned Buckley and the attorney for the developers about the possibility of abandoning the IHDA project and converting the units to condominium. Both men testified that the penalties •involved in withdrawing from the AY. AI'RIL 15, 1981 ----4/ program were severe enough that no such action would occur for at least 20 years. "The building can be sold with the permission of IHDA, but the person has. to remain in the program." Buckley said "No chance of going condo"" asked Kupstis "Not for 20 years." replied Buckley. \ Kupstis then asked what would happen if the project was not approved by IHDA "I can't say. It is possible that we could lose the commitment, but we will condition the variations on the closing of the loan with IHDA We would like to keep the three-storv variation non- conditional," Buckley said. The petition also asked that the text of the Zoning ordinance be changed to allow the construction of a .three-story structure in the event that the ZBA voted against the variation request, which it did The Zoning board voted 4 to 3, which re­ sulted in a negative recommendation to the City Council on this matter also. Voting in favor were Fouse, Kupstis. Jessup and Smith Voting against were Kauss, Halverson and Cuda The remaining variation requests, concerning the number of allowable units and the number of parking spaces per unit, both received affirmative recommendations of the ZBA Arguing for the increase in the number of units from 46 < allowed) to 48 (requested), Buckley said they had information that IHDA had allocated 48 spaces and might shelve the project if only 4f> were allowed. Annie Cuda asked if there was anything written which might corroborate this testimony "No." said Buckley The ZBA voted unanimously to recommend approval of this variation to the City Council. The variation to allow one-and-a-half parking spaces per unit received ZBA endorsement, but not as easily. Voting for the variation were Kupstis. Kauss. Smith. Fouse and Cuda. Voting against were members Halverson and Jessup The petition, with the recom­ mendations of the ZBA will be sent to the City Council for final action No date has been set for this matter. MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued from page 1) major controversy between sportsmen and anti trappers over the use of leghold traps The senator had this to say: "Although I do not trap, I do recognize that trapping may be necessary in some very restrictive instances (such as rat control). However, it would seem to me that some other types of traps could be used other than leghold traps". (Incidentally, leghold traps are not used for rats). He noted that no anti-leghold trap bill 'fm. Crash Destroys Light Standard McHenry Area Rescue squad volunteers check on the condition of Leroy Jensen, of 2608 Cherry, Wonder Lake, who was injured after his car crashed into a cement street light standard on Elm street last Thursday evening. McHenry hospital. Jensen was later treated and released from "V had yet been introduced this year, although he expects one will be for­ thcoming in the Ulinios House. Neither he nor Congressman Lynn Martin, who also responded, committed themselves to voting a particular way and one gets the feeling that those people who are not pledged to a par­ ticular side now will balance the scales one way or the other in a future vote. Lobbies are strong and influential in the poltical arena, and we are inclined to believe the side that places the hardest twist on the arm will be the winner on leghold traps as it is on most issues There are that many uncommitted votes in many controversies. Therefore, those who would be on the winning side would do well to let their voices be heard, both in Springfield and the national capitol Marie Cicchini did just that by asking for an answer from those who serve her It's because we happen to agree so wholeheartedly on the particular issue of leghold traps that we are telling her story.

The group then voted overwhelmingly for a slate of candidates to fill the new positions and the four existing vacancies which the board claimed were temporarily filled by presidential appointment. At the meeting Jim Bishop, who presided, said there was a rumor that the board was about to fill the vacancy of chief executive officer caused by the termination of Anthony Corcoran. The group passed two resolutions pur­ porting to represent the will of the majority of the membership deman­ ding that the board refrain from hiring the director until the meeting agreed to by the board is held April 21. As anticipated at this special meeting, the board of directors refused to seat the membership elected can­ didates at a board meeting held April 6 At this time Bishop presented the board the court order restraining the hiring and received assurances that the items which concerned the membership would be on the agenda of the April 21 meeting. Olsen and the board claimed that a numl>er of conditions of the by-laws were not met and thus invalidated the March 31 meeting They also had questions about the consistency and \alidity of the membership attending that night and how the proxies were obtained. At this point both sides expressed concern that they have "broad-based" community support for the application for a state issued "certificate of need" tor a new hospital facilitf ,|ftanned for a large site on Bull Valley road at Route 31. which at the present time is in limbo with a Health Services agency "intent to deny" letter hanging fire. A decision by the state is to be made following the presentation of further evidence by the hospital in July, according to Bishop. Olsen questions the motives of the group purporting to represent the membership led by Bishop. Clinton B. Clavpool and H. E Reihansperger, suggesting that they have confused local people and are seeking the rehiring of Corcoran. Olsen insists that Corcoran was never fired as is stated in some newspaper stories. He said that Corcoran was offered twice the money he was getting as administrator to stay on as consultant while the certificate of need was being pursued. Following this he would then take his retirement as Olsen claimed Corcoran had long planned to do There was never any intent by the board to fire Corcoran, Olsen said Olsen added that there is no demonstrable reason to expand the board of directors at this time. He asks, "Where have we failed? We have bent ourselves over backwards to ac­ commodate the staff on their com­ plaints." Bishop has denied that he is in anyway connected with the Crystal I^ke Hospital association as Olsen charges and that he doubts if Sherman hospital can realistically expect to build at its facility at Ambutal in the near futifre. At the March 31 meeting Bishop said, "The Sherman hospital is Tapjoca (out of funds for further building)".
