Summary

The McHenry City Council unanimously approved consent agenda items 5a–5e, voted to grant a conditional use permit for 1412 (address text varies in the record), and approved entering executive session to discuss property sale/lease pricing under Illinois law.

The McHenry City Council on Jan. 20 recorded three formal actions during the public meeting:

1) Consent agenda (items 5a–5e): Motion by Alderman Miller, second by Alderman Doherty; roll-call vote was unanimous in favor. The consent items were approved.

2) Conditional use permit / ordinance for 1412 (as recorded): Council considered agenda item 6a, described in the meeting with inconsistent street-name references (Ridgeview, Riverview, Bridgeview). Alderman Miller moved to approve a conditional use permit to allow a motor freight terminal at the property identified in the record as 1412. An alderman seconded; the roll-call vote was unanimous in favor and the motion was recorded as approved.

3) Executive session entry: Council moved and seconded to enter executive session to discuss setting the price for sale or lease of property under the Illinois Open Meetings Act exemption (citing ILCS 5 ILCS 120/2(c)(6) in the transcript). The roll-call vote was unanimous among those present and the council entered executive session.

Notes and provenance: All three votes were conducted by roll call; the transcript contains some inconsistent street-name references for item 6a and records clerk roll calls for unanimous yes votes among present aldermen. No other ordinances or resolutions were adopted during the public portion of the meeting on Jan. 20.
