On the McHenry County Monopoly board that the Democrats sent to some, but not all parts of the county, there is a reference to a $177 million county administrative complex expansion plan.

The Dems call it a “Spending Spree.”

Wednesday’s Daily Herald has an article by Chuck Keeshan about how the county plans to spend $4.5 million buying the Klehm property, which was nursery when Mr. Klehm tried to get me to waive interest when he showed up at the McHenry County Treasurer’s Office a day after his real estate tax bill was due. (You would guess correctly that I made him pay the late penalty.)

The article also says the county wants to purchase Cardunal Savings Bank. It’s on Route 14 south of the county administrative property.
