THE RETENTION lake is first on Buffalo Grove's list of priorities, according to Village Mgr. Dan Larson.

Budget Hearing Set For Tonight The School Dist. 96 Board of Education will have a public hearing to approve its 1972-73 budget at 8 tonight. Following the public hearing the board will hold its regularly scheduled monthly meeting.

Both events will be in Supt. William Hitzeman's office at Kildeer Countryside School in Long Grove. Trustees authorized its engineers to negotiate plans for the lake with the Lake County Forest Preserve District three months ago. A change in the Lake County Board of Supervisors hes been given as the- reason for the delay in talks. The proposed ISO-acre site, almost all of it in Lake County, is west of Arlington Heights Road and south of Checker Road.

The area is presently farm land. The approximate cost of acquiring the land for the project is estimated at Construction costs are expected to amount to $300,000, with the MSD paying about half. PLANS CALL FOR the site to be developed by the Forest Preserve District as a park-type area surrounding the retention lake. The full capacity of the lake would probably only be used once or twice a year during heavy rainfalls. Larson said the Buffalo Creek retention lake would permit all of the village east of Arlington Heights Road to drain much faster after a heavy rain.

Currently, rain water follows a course from as far west as Lake Zurich and travels through the village. He added time is of the essence in starting the project because the property could be annexed and developed any time. At an exploratory meeting last April to discuss plans for the retention lake, John E. Egan, MSD president said: "The project will result in significant reduction in flood damages downstream in Buffalo Grove and Wheeling, and some unincorporated areas, as well as decreasing health hazards and inconveniences. In addition, recreation and open-space benefits of the site would accrue to the residents of Lake County," Egan added.

21 are down to earth people "who don't put up false fronts." "It seems like people in this district will be easy to work with," said Gochis. "They seem to be open to suggestions and are very cost conscious." GOCHIS, an Arlington Heights resident, first learned about the Dist. 21 opening through a trade magazine. He saw the ad for several months but never bothered to look into it because he felt he was too young. "I thought an established district like 21 would be seeking an older man with more experience in the area of school management," he explained.

"However, since the district was in my backyard I decided to at least call and see the salary range;" Gochis said when he called he spoke with John Barger, assistant super- indendent of Dist. 21, and was talked into coming to the district for an interview. At the time Gochis was the assistant business manager with Niles Township High School Dist. 219. "I'D ONLY been with Dist.
