Body
Dear Sir:
F.H. Paschen, S.N. Nielsen & Associates LLC (“Paschen”) has requested a one (1) month permit to access the District’s 95th Street Pumping Station, located at 9512 South Baltimore Avenue, in Chicago, Illinois to reach a portion of the Chicago Skyway Toll Bridge structure to perform maintenance work on the bridge structure.
The maintenance work consists of replacing and painting some bolts on isolated truss points on the bridge structure over the 95th Street Pumping Station building. Paschen is requesting access to the parking lot for a manlift to be utilized to perform its maintenance work. The manlift will be placed such that it does not interfere with building access or operations. No personnel will access into or on top of the building. All work will be performed from within the manlift.
The District’s technical departments have reviewed the request and have no objections thereto.
A fair market value fee of the permit premises would yield a fee less than the District's minimum $5,000.00 fee. The District's standard minimum fee of $5,000.00 is therefore recommended.
It is requested that the Executive Director recommend to the Board of Commissioners that it authorize the issuance of a one (1) month permit to F.H. Paschen, S.N. Nielsen & Associates LLC to access the District’s 95th Street Pumping Station, located at 9512 South Baltimore Avenue, in Chicago, Illinois to reach a portion of the Chicago Skyway Toll Bridge structure to perform maintenance work on the bridge structure. Consideration shall be a document preparation fee of $5,000.00.
It is also 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:npe
Recommended, David St. Pierre, Executive Director
Respectfully Submitted, David J. Walsh, 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 March 16, 2017
