Body
Dear Sir:
In connection with the captioned project, it was necessary to obtain authorization from the Cook County Highway Department (CCHD) in the form of a permit.

The District has received Permit No. 10-01-1456-C from the CCHD for the above work. The permit will be issued after the District’s contractor posts the necessary bond with the CCHD.
It is respectfully requested that the Executive Director recommend to the Board of Commissioners that CCHD Permit No. 10-01-1456-C be accepted and approved.
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 from the CCHD on behalf of the District after it is approved by the Acting Director of Engineering as to technical matters and by the General Counsel as to form and legality.
Requested, Kenneth A. Kits, Acting Director of Engineering, WSS:AP
Recommended, Richard Lanyon, Executive Director
Respectfully Submitted, Frank Avila, Chairman Committee on Engineering
