A final vote before the McHenry County Board is set for Tuesday on a proposal to limit which flags can fly over McHenry County government buildings, an idea several board members see as targeting the gay pride flag. The proposed policy put forth by county board member Jeffrey Thorsen, a Republican from Crystal Lake, would create an official flag policy for the county, limiting the flags that can fly over government buildings to the American, state of Illinois, POW/MIA, McHenry County government and Purple Heart flags.
