COMMITTEE ON REAL ESTATE
Mr. David St. Pierre, Executive Director
Title
Authority to grant a 25-year, 7,396 square foot non-exclusive easement to the Village of Hanover Park to construct, maintain, operate, repair and remove two 12-inch storm sewers on District real estate located within the Hanover Park Water Reclamation Plant premises in Hanover Park, Illinois. Consideration shall be $10.00
Body
Dear Sir:
The Village of Hanover Park ("Hanover Park") has requested a 25-year, 7,396 square foot non-exclusive easement to construct, maintain, operate, repair and remove two 12-inch storm sewers located on land within the District's Hanover Park Water Reclamation Plant ("Plant") premises. Hanover Park leases 44± acres of real estate within the Plant for public recreational use under a lease that commenced in 2013 and expires in 2052. Currently, stormwater runoff flows overland from private property to the north of the Plant premises resulting in standing water on the athletic fields under lease to Hanover Park. The proposed storm sewers would intercept this flow and direct it to an existing drainage ditch located within the Plant premises.
The District's technical departments have no objections to the requested easement. A nominal fee of $10.00 is recommended as is customary for governmental entities that use District property for public purposes.
It is requested that the Executive Director recommend to the Board of Commissioners that it grant a 25-year, 7,396 square foot non-exclusive easement to the Village of Hanover Park to construct, maintain, operate, repair and remove two 12-inch storm sewers on District real estate located within the Hanover Park Water Reclamation Plant premises in Hanover Park, Illinois. Consideration shall be $10.00.
It is also requested that the Executive Director recommend to the Board of Commissioners that it authorize and direct the Chairman of the Committee on Finance and the Clerk to execute said easement agreement on behalf of the District after it is approved by the General Counsel as to form and legality.
Requested, Ronald M. Hill, General Counsel, RMH:STM:CMM:ss
Recommended, David St. Pierre, Executive Director
Respectfully Submitted, Mariyana T. Spyropoulos, Chairman Committee on Real Estate Development
Disposition of this agenda item will be documented in the official Regular Board Meeting Minutes of the Board of Commissioners for October 2, 2014
