The agenda was read. Mr. Ed McQuire of Kishwaukee Industrial Park was the first ¦ order of business. All board members have copy of plans., They would like to resubdi- vide 7.8 acres into 9 separ¬ ate lots. One lot is to be¬ come a retention pond for the other 8 lots. The engineering plans have been submitted to Baxter and Woodman and are pending approval. (Mr. McQuire said there were 10 complete copies of plans for Planning Commission, but only five were made available.) Mr. McQuire said they have had a lot of call for 5,000 to 10,000 foot buildings and these pieces of property would be suitable for that. These were all originally Lot #4. They will do berming. There is a sewer line back in there. Kishwaukee Center will- do maintenance of detention area. Since there is such a load on present sewer and water Baxter <fc Woodman will advise. These buildings will be mainly light industry so would use office toilets and domestic use. Kishwaukee hopes that many of these buildings will be lease buildings, so they plan to exist for a long time.
Mr. Hansmann moved that the Huntley Planning Commission recommend approval of the plans presented by Kishwaukee Industrial Park for resubdi¬ vision of Lot #4, consisting of 7.8 acres into 9 separate lots. Also, Kishwaukee is to maintain the detention area of Lot 4. This is subject to Baxter ic Woodman's approval. Mr. Daum seconded. Upon roll

I had the honor of being guest at the past Presidents dinner held at our Post home. We are proud of our Post and get a lot of comments on how everyone enjoys coming to Huntley because of the good food (thanks to our kitchen crew) and a nice home. I enjoyed the evening and the food. We were entertained by the First Congregational Church Choir, who gave a super performance on a hit taken from their Hobo Show, and if you missed seeing that, well, don't miss it again. It's a once a year occasion. They were super. The girls that worked together to give us that evening did a good job. Let's all get into that "We could do that" attitude this year and have some fun doing it. Jo Czonstka, President
