Huntley Planning Commission Considers Berlin Development
The regular monthly meeting of the Huntley Planning Commission was called to order at 7:30pm by Chairman Pro-Tem Paul Mercer. Those members of the board present were Darrick Franzen, Ron Hahn and Ed Domagalski. Also present was Mayor Dhamer and Administrator Nelis.
Mr. Franzen moved to dispense with reading of the minutes and accept them as submitted. Mr. Hahn seconded. Motion carried.
Mr. Schachtner entered the meeting at this time.
The first order of business was presented by Mr. Jim Craig who was again before the Commission with various plans for the Berlin property off Donald Drive. The Commission reviewed the various choices he presented. Also discussed was the zoning that should be considered for that parcel.
Mr. Brad Mertel of 11301 Myrtle stated that he prefers plan for 3 or 4 lots and definitely prefers single- family residences. Mr. Chuck
Yerke of 11305 Myrtle stated that he would rather see 3 lots for more open space.
Since this is only in concept stages, no recommend¬ ation can be made, but the feelings of the board leaned toward preferring R-1 zoning with variance for three lots for lot width. Other opinions were R-2 zoning for 4 lots with variance.
Mr. Craig will discuss with Berlins and return to Commission.
Mr. Franzen asked Mayor on status of Mercuri project. He said the Village has put a stop on work until weather permits and Corps of Engineers approve.
Next regular meeting will be April 12 with Mini-Mall developers attending. Also Comprehensive ad/hoc meeting will be scheduled in April.
Mr. Hahn moved to adjourn the meeting. Mr. Franzen seconded. Motion carried, meeting adjourned.

PTO Brings Gang Specialist To Huntley School
By Tracey Schwartz
Huntley PTO will bring ah area gang specialist' to Huntley Grade Sc  jol later this month to present a Gang Awareness Program. Detective Scott Adams of the Carpentersville Police Department will conduct the program for area parents and residents, as well, at 6:30pm April 22. In addition, Adams will be doing presentations for 6th through 8th grade students and faculty that day.
The program's intent is to create a sense of awareness
about gangs among Huntley students, faculty and parents without creating a sense of excitement. Adams will present information about gangs in McHenry County and surrounding areas, their clothing, their sign language, etc. In addition, Adams will lead a question and answer session after his informative lecture.
In response to teachers' requests, the Huntley School District brought in the Dean of Elk Grove High school, also very knowledgable about gang
activity, to speak to the K-12 faculty members in February. The Huntley PTO regards Detective Adam's program as a first step in making a proactive community action in Huntley toward this very serious problem in today's society.
Adams is an Illinois Certified Gang Specialist, a member of the North Central Narcotics Task Force and a 6-year veteran on the Carpentersville Police Department.
