Body
Dear Sir:
At its meeting of January 3, 2008, the Board of Commissioners authorized the issuance of a 5-month permit for the Village of Wilmette to use 0.38 acres of District property located south of Sheridan Road and on the east bank of the North Shore Channel at 831 Sheridan Road, Wilmette, Illinois, known as North Shore Channel Atlas Parcel Number 1.01, for a construction staging area as part of its storm sewer installation on adjoining lands. The current permit expired on May 31, 2008. The Village requests a 60-day extension to complete its work and to restore the permit premises.
Pursuant to a permit the subject parcel is used by the Baha’i Temple for parking and bike trails. The Village will be required to obtain the consent of the Baha’i before the extension will be effective. Also, the permit extension will be subject to the District’s technical departments’ terms and conditions and require the protection of the District facilities in the area.
The previous permit was for a nominal fee, and a nominal fee is recommended for the extension.
It is requested that the General Superintendent recommend to the Board of Commissioners that it authorize the issuance of a 60-day permit extension to the Village of Wilmette for the use of District land located in Wilmette, Illinois, near 831 Sheridan Road and the east bank of the North Shore Channel, c/k/a as part of North Shore Channel Atlas Parcel Number 1.01, for a temporary construction staging area to install storm drains. Consideration shall be $10.00.
It is further requested that the General Superintendent recommend to the Board of Commissioners that it authorize the Chairman of the Committee on Finance and the Clerk to execute said permit extension agreement after it is approved by the Attorney as to form and legality.
Requested, Frederick M. Feldman, Attorney, FMF:CL:JCC:nm
