The regular monthly meeting of the Huntley Village Bf^ard was called to order last Thursday, July 7 at the Huntley Village Hall. President W. Brill and all Trustaes were present. The pre¬ liminary reading of the minutes, treasurer's report and paying of bills was first on the agenda.
Bids were read from Ben Hans¬ ford Chevrolet and Freund Equip¬ ment, Inc., both from Huntley, for a two-ton dump truck. The Village Board had asked for bids on a tilt cab truck and a con¬ ventional style truck. The bid from Freund Implen}ent was $4700 for a tilt type cab find $4100 for con¬ ventional cab. The bid from Ben Hansford Chevrcaet was $4600 for a tilt cab and $|800 for a con¬ ventional type. T»e bids did not include the price ci the new snow plow nor a trade in on the old 1968 truck. The members of the Board decided to hold a special meeting on Saturday, July 9, to determine which bid to accept. It was mentioned by a board mem- bar that perhaps the old truck eoold be used by tbe Huntley Park District. However no acti' or 4aeiBion was made at the "-o^' dty ipaetinff on the fate of that wAlOe.

to the Board. The first resolution made Church Street from 3rd to the Algonquin Blacktop an arterial street entitling it to MFT funds. Only 25 per cent of MFT funds may be used by the Village for non-arterial streets. In addi¬ tion Srd Street, which runs be¬ tween Church' and Woodstock, was changed from arterial street No. 2 to arterial street No. 14. This was because both Church and 3rd Street were numbered arterial street No. 2. The Board passed this ftrat resolution unanimously.
The second resolution set aside $9,000 for the maintenance of ar¬ terial and non-arterial streets. It was explained that this money would be used to resurface Bor¬ don, Mullen and 4th streets, all of which run next to the Union Special parking lot. Mr. Rakow stated that the Union Special Ma¬ chine Company had resurfaced their parking lot with a mat. How¬ ever, a 24 foot space between the blacktopping, the street surface and the parking lot surface re¬ mained unpaved. It was mention¬ ed by a Village Trustee that this area was used primarily for em¬ ployees at the Uiiion Special M.a- chine Co. to park. Mr. Rakow es- «jjn^»f^ that for the village to surface this 24 foot strip would cost anywhere from $1600 to 2000 additional. The Board approved the $9000 to be taken out of the MFT fund for the maintenance of the streets. Mr. Rakov/ .stated that if at a later time the Village decided to surface this 24 foot strip they could add it on.
The trustees at this point in the meeting discussed the poor con¬ dition which Grove Street was left after the installation of a water main laat fall. It was said that clay rather than gravel was used to fill the ditches which crossed the sti-eet from tlie exca¬ vating. The Board stated that the
