Body
Dear Sir:
F.H. Paschen, S.N. Nielsen & Associates, LLC, (“Paschen”) was awarded a CDOT contract to rehabilitate the Torrence Avenue Lift Bridge over the Calumet River. Paschen has requested a permit to use a 1,240 sq. ft. area of District land along with a 150 ft. access route located at the entrance to the District’s SEPA Station No. 1 to set-up 3 jobsite trailers and a 8’ x 25’ wash station. The bridge rehabilitation work is not located on District property.
The District’s technical departments have reviewed the request and have no objections thereto. Access to the SEPA station will be maintained at all times. Paschen will be required to provide general liability, property damage and environmental contamination insurance in accordance with the District’s standard requirements.
Because the pro-rata share of the fair market value is less than $2,500.00, the District’s standard document preparation fee shall be assessed.
It is requested that the Executive Director recommend to the Board of Commissioners that it authorize the issuance of an 18-month permit to F.H. Paschen, S.N. Nielsen & Associates, LLC, on a 1,240 sq. ft. area of District land along with a 150 ft. access route located at the entrance to the District’s SEPA Station No. 1, located along the north bank of the Calumet River at Torrence Avenue, in Chicago, Illinois, as a construction staging area. Consideration shall be a document preparation fee of $2,500.00.
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
