Body
Dear Sir:
On August 11, 2015, the Executive Director issued a 21-day permit to the United States Coast Guard (“USCG”) Auxiliary Division 37 authorizing it to access the Summit Boat Launch on a 0.75 acre parcel of District real estate located at 7800 Canal Bank Road in Summit, Illinois, and known as Main Channel Parcel 34.03. The permit was issued on an emergency basis to meet the USCG’s immediate needs. The permit expires September 3, 2015. Ratification of the permit by the Board of Commissioners is being sought and presented in a companion transmittal letter at today’s meeting.
The USCG also requests a five (5) year permit to continue to launch boats from the Summit Boat Launch for patrolling and responding to emergencies along the waterways.
The District’s technical departments have reviewed this request for a five (5) year permit and have no objections thereto. A nominal fee of $10.00 is recommended as is customary under agreements with governmental agencies using District property for public purposes.
It is requested that the Board of Commissioners authorize the issuance of a five (5) year permit to the United States Coast Guard Auxiliary Division 37 to access and launch boats from the Summit Boat Launch on 0.75 acres of District real estate located at 7800 Canal Bank Road in Summit, Illinois, and known as Main Channel Parcel 34.03. Consideration shall be a nominal fee of $10.00.
It is further requested that the Executive Director recommend to the Board of Commissioners that the Chairman of the Committee on Finance and the Clerk be authorized and directed to execute said permit agreement after it is approved by the General Counsel as to form and legality.
Requested, Ronald M. Hill, General Counsel, RMH:STM:CMM:vp
Recommended, David St. Pierre, Executive Director
Respectfully Submitted, Mariyana T. Spyropoulos, Chairman Committee on Real Estate Development
