The Yorkville City Council heard a preliminary request for annexation of 225 acres of land north of Route 34 and west of Route 47, Countryside Center.  The development will include about 500 residential lots, a shopping center and a bank. The assessed value for the development would be in excess of the present City of Yorkville, officials said. This photo shows the early days of construction.
