Village Board Meeting
Last Thursday. July 2, Huntley's ¦Village Board convened at 7:30 P.M. at the Huntley Village Hall. The meeting opened to discussion with a presentation of several bills from the construction crew who are building the water tower North of Huntley. One bill of $1,000 that was not previously appropriated by the Board was disclosed by the engineers of the tower. The money would be used to increase the foundation of the tower. The Board urmanously decided to grant the $1000 and to pay all other bills.
The Board also voted to pay the motor-fuel tax of $869.12.
The letter sent by the Huntley Park Board was then read by the Mayor, Mr. Brill. In the letter the Park Board requested a survey of the Huntley park and the adjoining school property. The Park Board had intended to build a fence on the ,park-school boundary. The Park Board stated they would build the fence without the survey if the Vil¬ lage Board failed to act withini ninety days. The Park Board further stated that any and all costs of building and tearing down the fence, if it wasn't on the proper boundary line, would be carried by the tax payers.
The Village Beard refused to act on the Park Board's letter. Village Board President Brill said, "We're not going to do anything. We got them a survey a year and half ago and they lost it." The lost survey, according to the Village Board, cost the vijlage $1500.
A new ordinance for the village was also Ascussed. The ordinance calls for $115,000 of tax levied money for the fiscal year oi May I, 1970 to April 31. 1971. The money is needed as pay for the Vil¬ lage employees and for road, alley and streetlight maintenance. There will be a special meeting on July Continued on Page Two VILLAGE BOARD

Gentlemen:
On June 17, 1970, Mayor Brill and I, along with Attorney James Elliott and Howard Ruth, the Graf- ten Township Supervisor, met in the offices of Ben Morgan in Elg^n, Illinois. Tlie purpose of the meeting was to ascertain the use to which the old rendering plant was going to be put and the nature of the exact operation that would be in¬ stalled there.
At Mr. Morgan's crffice, we met with Mrs. Antionette Anderson, one of her two sons, and Mr. Arthur Schuring, the man who will manage the plant.
It was initially pointed out to us by Mr. Morgan, in a letter that he had received from the McHenry County Building and Zoning Depart¬ ment that the zoning upon the land in question is 1-2, and that in this general industrial classification, the use to which the property will be put is in conformity with the Mc¬ Henry County Zoning Ordinance. The property has not rcceittly be^ reiioaed. M anpe** .CaMi ^-4mtiti on letters that were presented to lis that the zoning <mi the property has been in effect for some period of time.
Attached to this letter for your information, is a photostatic copy of a letter dated June 19, 1970, which Mayor Brill and Mr. Ruth received from Attorney Morgan. The letter in general outlines the opera¬ tion and the guarantees that are being made by the peojde who will be running the plant known as the Fox Valley Grease Service.
1 would like to point out at this time that notwithstanding the zon¬ ing, the Village of Huiitley does have the power to terminate any unwholesome place of business. Un¬ der the provisions of Chapter 24, Section 11-42-9, the corporate auth¬ orities of any city may prohftit any offensive or imwholesome business or establishment, either within the city or within the distance of one mile beyond the mumcipal limits. This Statute would have direct ap¬ plication to the operation proposed by Mrs. Anderson.
The city cannot anticipate the exact nature to which this pr<^)erty will be used except in reliance upon the letter of Mr. Morgan. If it develops at a future date tbat there is or will be an offensive nature to this particular business, that is, offensive odors escaping for wide areas or an unusual number of rats attracted by the plant, then the corporate authorities would be fully justified in filing suit for an injunc¬ tion. However, until sdch. devrf(^ ments actually accrue, any attempt to prohibit ch- en>oin the operation of the plant in tbe manner described in the attached letter would be pre¬ mature and would undoubtedly meet with failure.
One of the most important things that came out of the meeting was tiie absolute assurance from Mr. Morgan that there would be . no animal rendering dcMie at this par¬ ticular plant.
We hope that this  answei^ any
questions you may have regarding
the procedure being following with
respect to this particular item.
Very truly your,
Michael T. Caldwell
