Body
Dear Sir:
The Illinois Department of Transportation (“IDOT”) has requested a 3-year permit to traverse District Main Channel Parcels 34.03, 34.05 and 35.06, via the Lawndale Avenue Service Road, and Main Channel Parcels 34.10 (LASMA), 35.02, 35.03, 35.08 (HASMA) and 37.03, via Canal Bank Road, to reach the 1st Avenue overpass in Summit, Illinois to clean and paint the bridge structure. All work will be completed within IDOT’s 1st Avenue right-of-way located in Summit, Illinois. Only access through District property is being requested. A similar permit was issued to IDOT in 2014 to access these same parcels to reach the bridge for rehabilitation work.
Parcel 34.10 is the site of the District’s LaGrange Avenue Solids Management Area (LASMA) and Parcel 35.08 is the site of the District’s Harlem Avenue Solids Management Area (HASMA). The remaining parcels are vacant.
The District’s technical departments have reviewed this request and have no objections thereto. A nominal fee of $10.00 is recommended as is customary for governmental entities using District property for a public purpose.
It is requested that the Executive Director recommend to the Board of Commissioners that it authorize and approve the issuance of a 3-year permit to the Illinois Department of Transportation to traverse District Main Channel Parcels 34.03, 34.05 and 35.06, via the Lawndale Avenue Service Road, and Main Channel Parcels 34.10 (LASMA), 35.02, 35.03, 35.08 (HASMA) and 37.03, via Canal Bank Road, to reach the 1st Avenue overpass in Summit, Illinois to clean and paint the bridge structure. Consideration shall be a nominal fee of $10.00.
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, Susan T. Morakalis, General Counsel, STM:CMM:npe
Recommended, Brian A. Perkovich, Executive Director
