THE CITY OF MCHENRY LANDMARK COMMISSION
November 2, 1993
The regular meeting of the McHenry Landmark Commission was brought
to order at 7:35 p.m. at the McHenry Municipal Center. Members
present were: Barb Byron, Marya Dixon, Adele Froehlich, Carl
Fredrickson, Ruth Fenwick, Larry Huck, Carol Jean Smith, and Lori
Wilhelm. Reverend Phyllis Mueller and Donnabelle Doherty were
absent.
MINUTES
There were corrections to the October 5th meeting. Debbie Lane
picked up an application for the Landmark Commission, not Brent
Lane. Mrs. Lane is interested in becoming a member. Much confusion
about photos, line three should be omitted completely. The motion
to accept the minutes was made by Barb and seconded by Ruth.
PLAQUE PROGRAM
Barb and Marya will draft a letter and a form to send to the
homeowners about our program. We hope that we can get more people
interested in plaguing their homes or business. A discussion was
held about the future of the old Library Building, if the Library
Board accepts Mr. James Althoff's offer for the old Follett
Building. Adele will contact Dorothy Uttich about getting a
plaguing form and plaguing the library as soon as possible.
SWEATSHIRTS
Lori said the shirts. are selling very well . She stated that she
receives a call from the school for at least two or three shirts per
week. It was decided to charge more for the larger sweatshirts,
$1 .50 for 2XX and $2.50 for 3XX. Only four sweatshirts were sold at
our East Side/West Side Program. The Chamber display window is
empty. Lori stated that she would look into getting the shirts on
display. Lori would like a better financial report from the City on
the shirt sales.
PROGRAMS
A big thanks to Carol Jean Freund for all her hard work on the East
Side/West Side Program. It was a huge success. Our next program
will be a slide presentation. Carol Jean has been asked by some
organizations in town for a slide presentation. There will be a
charge for this presentation and the money will go towards the
Facade Grant. We will have our own slide program so we can get as
much recognition as possible. It was approved to have Carol
purchase new slide trays.
