Dear Mr. Rockwell :
The city of McHenry is proud to have passed this resolution.
We wish you Godspeed in this monumental endeavor. Hopefully our sew-
erage treatment plant will be a standard other communities will emulate. If all
systems on our beautiful Fox are upgraded to its level we will have left a
legacy for our children and theirs that will have made our small contribution
worthwhile.
Sincerely,
Joseph B. Stanek,
Mayor of The City of McHenry
