City staff in attendance were Director of Public Works Batt, Attorney Narusis, Clerk Gilpin, Park Director Merkel, Chief Joyce, Building & Zoning Officer Halik, City Administrator Peterson. During the 10 minute public input session, Anton Rebel of 4009 W. Maple Avenue expressed his concerns on sidewalk repair in the City, empty gravel trucks going through residential districts and suggested that the Council have one meeting a year so all of the people can get answers to their questions. Tony Salgado, President of the Northfox Condo Association, also addressed the Council during the 10 minute public input session and expressed his concerns about the lack of screening between the Northfox Condominium Complex and commercial properties abutting the east side of the Northfox property. Motion by Bolger, seconded by Patterson, to approve the minutes of the August 1, 1990 Regular Meeting as presented. Voting Aye: Bolger, Donahue, Lieder, Teta, Smith, Patterson, Serritella. Voting Nay: None. Absent: McClatchey. Motion carried. Ronald Bykowski, developer of the Chapel Hill Commercial Center located near the intersection of Route 120 and Chapel Hill Road approached the Council to request preliminary plat approval of the Commercial Center. The subject property is located outside the City limits but within the City of McHenry's 1 1/2 mile jurisdiction and therefore must meet all of the City of McHenry Subdivision Control Ordinance regulations. The McHenry Plan Commission reviewed and approved the preliminary plat at its July 19 Plan Commission Meeting. Several Aldermen expressed concerns about Lot 6 which is a U-shape parcel which surrounds a well house owned by the Eastwood Manor Water Company and is in a residential area. It appeared that Lot 6 was the only lot with access to Country Lane through the residential subdivision. Bykowski noted that he does not intend to build on Lot 6 at this time and did not know how and when that parcel would be developed.
