TRANSMITTAL LETTER FOR BOARD MEETING OF MAY 2, 2019
COMMITTEE ON REAL ESTATE
Mr. Brian A. Perkovich, Executive Director
Title
Authority to issue a five (5) day permit to Rubino Engineering, Inc. to perform geotechnical and environmental soil borings on a portion of Main Channel Parcel 37.02 in Forest View, Illinois along the proposed construction route of a sewer line. Consideration shall be $5,000.00
Body
Dear Sir:
The Village of Forest View (“Village”) is planning to construct a storm sewer that will connect to an Illinois Department of Transportation outfall located east of Harlem Avenue and north of Main Channel Parcel 37.02 to reduce flooding in the area. The proposed route of the Village’s sewer line will be beneath a District roadway located at the northern edge of Parcel 37.02.
Rubino Engineering, Inc., a Village contractor, has requested a 5-day permit to perform approximately four (4) geotechnical and environmental soil borings along the proposed sewer line route across Parcel 37.02. The soil borings will be backfilled with approved materials and the roadway will be re-paved with matching pavement.
Parcel 37.02 is leased by KM Phoenix Holdings, LLC ("KM") until February 28, 2039. The permit is therefore subject to the written consent of KM.
The District’s technical departments have reviewed Rubino’s request and have no objections thereto. A permit fee in the amount of $5,000.00 is recommended, as the pro-rata share of 10% of the fair market value of the land would yield a fee less than the District's minimum permit fee of $5,000.00.
It is requested that the Executive Director recommend to the Board of Commissioners that it authorize and approve the issuance of a five (5) day permit to Rubino Engineering, Inc. to perform geotechnical and environmental soil borings on a portion of Main Channel Parcel 37.02 in Forest View, Illinois along the proposed construction route of a sewer line. Consideration shall be $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, Susan T. Morakalis, General Counsel, STM:CMM:nhb
Recommended, Brian A. Perkovich, Executive Director
Disposition of this agenda item will be documented in the official Regular Board Meeting Minutes of the Board of Commissioners for May 2, 2019
