ANNEXATION EAST OF RIVER AND UPDATE OF 1989 MASTER PLAN FOR WATER, WASTEWATER AND STORMWATER SYSTEMS Carl Moon of Baxter & Woodman distributed 1989 Master Plan Sewer Maps for review by the City Council. This discussion was brought about because of an interest in annexing property along Route 120 east of the +� Fox River from the river to Chapel Hill Road. Joseph Gausden, a member of the McHenry Area Economic Development Commission surveyed all of the property owners along Route 120, and reported that one of the main issues concerning voluntary annexation to the City was the installation of water and sewer facilities to that area. It was the consensus of the Council that the issue of annexation east of the river would have to be addressed through an update of the City's 1989 Water, Sewer, and Stormwater Master Plan. Motion by Locke, seconded by Baird to authorize City Engineers Baxter & Woodman to review and revise the 1989 Master Plan for Water, Wastewater, and Stormwater Systems for the entire McHenry Facilities Planning Area (FPA) with Step 1 to focus on the (FPA) east of the river to Chapel Hill Road.
