Village Board Minutes
Awards Night For Huntley Fire Deptartment
The January 12, 1989 Regular Meeting of the Village Board of Trustees of the Village of Huntley was held in the Board Room of the Village Hall and brought to order by President Dhamer at 8:00 P.M.
The President's first order of business was the presenta¬ tion of the December 8, 1988 minutes. A motion was made by Trustee Hoeft, seconded by Trustee Borowicz, to approve these minutes as presented. Trustee Greve held a discussion regarding same and thereafter all trustees voted aye and the motion carried.
The Treasurer's Report and all related financial reports went before the Trustees. A motion was made by Trustee Wicke, seconded by Trustee Greve, to approve the Treasurer's Report as presented and upon roll call, all trustees voted aye and the motion carried.
Expenses for the month were then submitted to the Trustees for their approval for payment. After discussion and examination, a motion was made by Trustee Greve, seconded by Trustee Hoeft, and upon roll call, all trustees voted aye, the motion carried and the Clerk was instructed to make their payment. A listing of same is attached hereto.
President Dhamer then called Attorney Ralph Hardy to the table, who represented Robert F. and Lova Snider and at that time submitted the required filings. They were requesting annexation of their property known as 11312 East Main Street, Huntley, containing 2.0794 acres, bounded by Dundee Road in Huntley on the South and Main Street (Ruth Road) on the North. They also were requesting M23 Eoning to go with the property.
Attorney Kukla opened the required Public Hearing of said annexation request for the purpose of hearing any questions to the matter. There being none present he closed the Public Hearing.
He then called for questions from the Board at this point; Attorney Hardy noted that the recapture fee to Bakley would be $2200.00

Defenders Drop Support For Landfill
The McHenry County Defenders will no longer support the County Board's efforts to site a new landfill, and instead wants the County to pursue building a mechanical recycling and composting plant, Jerry Paulson, Executive Director of the environmental group, told the County's Health and Agriculture Committee on Monday.
"We continue to believe that solid waste policy is one of the most important public health issues facing McHenry County," Paulson told the committee. "However, the McHenry County Deferiders _' '
cannot in good conscience continue to support a solid waste policy which has as its centerpiece the construction of a new landfill."
Paulson told the committee that his group believes there is an alternative to a new landfill that can be imple¬ mented sooner than a new landfill, at a cost compar¬ able to a landfill, and that offers greater safety.
"The Defenders believe that a comprehensive recycling program and the processing of solid waste by a mechanical separation and composting plant should be the disposal '  system of choice for Nf«;Henry
County," Paulson said.
The advantages of this approach over a landfill are: —It assures at least 75% recovery of waste for recycling and reuse, as compared to the County's present landfill-based system that only hopes to recover a maximum of 31% of waste for recycling and reuse by the year 2005.
—It assures that the County's Solid Waste Plan's goal of reducing the amount of waste disposed in land¬ fills to less than 30% will be reached, whereas the County's present landfill- based plan only hopes to achieve this goal by 2005.
