City Attorney Narusis announced that the record show that late in the afternoon of October 15, 1980, his office received a call from Mr. James De Rose, agent for the McHenry Group, petitioners who were to appear, at this meeting, regarding presentation of an Annexation Agreement. He indicated to Narusis that they were not prepared to proceed with the hearing this evening because their petition for annexation and the proposed annexation agreement were not in the form required by statute. In other words, they were not signed by the owner of record of the property in question which was the LaSalle National Bank. Nor did they have an appropriate affadavit in compliance with the trust disclosure act ready for this evening's hearing. Therefore, they were not in compliance with the statue on at least three counts and could not proceed this evening. DeRose was not even aware that we had a meeting this evening on the annexation matter. He asked Narusis to obtain a general con- tinuance or postponement of the meeting. The next meeting on this matter will be set by the City Council at a subsequent time. DeRose apologized for their inability to proceed this evening. When Narusis received that information, he contacted the City Clerk's office and advised her. She, in turn, notified the Mayor and City Council indicating to them that there would be no meeting this evening because the petitioners would not be available. For that reason the only persons present at this time were Attorney Narusis, City Clerk Gilpin and McHenry Plaindealer reporter Tony Oliver. There were no other persons present from the general public. City Clerk
