tasered for speaking out and this is concerning. If it will save money,
when will he see it on his tax bill? Mayor Kessler thanked Mr. Forshaw
for his comments regarding the concerts, and Assistant Administrator
Flynn along with Trustee Voss for their efforts regarding the concerts.

sanitary /sewer problem. It will be televised this week to determine the
problem. Mayor Kessler asked Mr. Jenssens to provide Director Miller
a telephone number for direct contact once the problem and solution
are identified.
Mrs. Amy Jenssens, 318 South Hickory Street stated Public Works was
out to fix the sidewalk across the street. They used black top and it

Crossroads
Trustee Voss stated she received a memo regarding Crossroads and the OTB.
She has received much opposition regarding the project. Trustee Voss stated
she visited the OTB in Waukegan, but not the restaurant in McHenry. Trustee
Voss asked if the negotiating team had been assigned. Mayor Kessler stated the
project is not at that stage. Mayor Kessler stated he has received comments in
favor as well. The Waukegan location is not the same project that is being
proposed. The petitioner needs to do much more before it can come before
the Board. Trustee Voss stated she will vote against the motion if it comes
before the Board and would like to excuse herself from the negotiating team.
Trustee Sullivan stated the project is not an OTB, but an annexation agreement
with a new restaurant. The petitioner is proposing a restaurant twice the size as
the existing restaurant, and is willing to consider the OTB as a small part of his
sports bar. All aspects of the project should be considered before making a
decision. Mayor Kessler restated the discussion is premature, it is not on the
agenda, nor is the petitioner present to answer and / or comment.
Trustee Voss agreed it was not on the agenda. Trustee Voss stated if the
project were to expand his restaurant, she would consider the project. The
petitioner approached the County and the County rejected the project.
Trustee Sullivan stated the project is not to expand the restaurant; it is to build a
new restaurant. At the time it was presented to the County, it was presented in
the Shack, and then in the restaurant without improvements; if the same
presentation were presented to the Board, the Board would deny that as well.
Trustee Nutschnig stated the Permits Committee meeting scheduled for Carmel
High School sign earlier was cancelled due to the denial of the Appearance
Review Committee.
