Body
Dear Sir:
The Village of Lemont ("Village") has requested a 9-month permit to use a 1-acre portion of Main Channel Parcel 23.04 located along the south bank of the Main Channel and east of the Lemont Road Overpass in Lemont, Illinois, for the temporary storage of approximately 2,000 tons of road salt. The Village proposes to store the road salt only on the concrete portion of Main Channel Parcel 23.04.
The District's technical departments have reviewed the request and there are no objections to a 9-month permit subject to the permit being condition upon the Village submitting its operational plan for minimizing, containing, and properly treating and/or disposing any runoff from the salt terminal operations as well as covering the salt piles. A permit fee of $6,500.00 is recommended which represents the pro-rata share of 10% of the appraised fair market value of nearby comparable sites.
It is requested that the Executive Director recommend to the Board of Commissioners that it authorize the issuance of a 9-month permit to the Village of Lemont to use a 1-acre portion of Main Channel Parcel 23.04 located along the south bank of the Main Channel and east of the Lemont Road Overpass in Lemont, Illinois, for the storage of approximately 2,000 tons of road salt. Consideration shall be $6,500.000.
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 agreement after it is approved by the General Counsel as to form and legality.
Requested, Ronald M. Hill, General Counsel, RMH:STM:NPE:rg
Recommended, David St. Pierre, Executive Director
Respectfully Submitted, Terrence J. O'Brien, Chairman Committee on Real Estate Development
