PROPOSED PREVIOUSLY APPROVED ITEM AMENDMENT
Department: Planning & Development
Request: Approval of permanent and temporary easement areas as revised.
Item Number: Approved on the 7/16/2013 Board Agenda as item 6; Approved on the 7/16/2013 Real Estate Estate Committee Report as item 13REAL0001.
Fiscal Impact: IDOT will pay the appraised value of $12,300.00 for the permanent easements and $11,700.00 for the temporary easement.
Account(s): N/A
Summary: Based on preliminary plans, the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) requested 0.25 acres of Permanent Easement and 0.14 acres of Temporary Easement for removal, replacement and maintenance of an existing culvert and outfall of the Middle Fork North Branch Chicago River through the intersection of Dundee Road and Lee Road in Northbrook. Due to subsequent final engineering plans, IDOT requests that the previously approved easement be amended to 0.335 acres for the Permanent Easement and 0.25 acres for the Temporary Easement. The additional easement area eliminates the use of unsightly gabions and will result in a more natural slope. The Forest Preserves staff has reviewed this request and plans and has found them to be acceptable; therefore, it is recommended that the Forest Preserve District Board of Commissioners approve the easement areas as amended.
