such work done, labor performed,or materials furnished.

respect to,or on account of the Pipeline,to prevent the same from becoming a charge or lien upon
property of the Licensor,and so that the taxes, charges and assessments levied upon or in respect
to such property shall not be increased because of the location, construction or maintenance of the
Pipeline or any improvement, appliance or fixture connected therewith placed upon such
property, or on account of the Licensee's interest therein. Where such tax, charge or assessment
may not be separately made or assessed to the Licensee but shall be included in the assessment of
the property of the Licensor, then the Licensee shall pay to the Licensor an equitable proportion
of such taxes determined by the value of the Licensee's property upon property of the Licensor as
compared with the entire value of such property.

PURPOSE
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and members of the City Council with
information to consider execution of an Easement Agreement with Union Pacific for the purpose
of installation of 8-inch and 14-inch pipe inside a 30-inch diameter steel casing.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the pipeline Easement Agreement with Union
Pacific and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement at a total cost of$3,000.
BACKGROUND
Burns & McDonnell (BMCD) has been hired by the City of Elgin to provide engineering
services for the completion of plans and specifications for the Joint Disposal Main. Their design
has identified a location in which the disposal main line must cross beneath Union Pacific right-
of-way.
On behalf of the City, BMCD submitted a request to Union Pacific to cross their right-of-way.
Union Pacific has agreed to allow the installation of Fox River Water Reclamation District
(FRWRD) 8-inch Force Sludge Line and the City of Elgin 14-inch Sludge Line inside a new 30-
inch steel casing and forwarded the attached easement agreement for execution. A copy of the
agreement is attached for your consideration. The agreement provides for a one-time payment to
Union Pacific in the total amount of $3,000. The one-time payment will be equally shared
between the City of Elgin and FRWRD and each share is $1,500.
Under the agreement, the City of Elgin is the sole grantee. FRWRD is required to transfer
ownership of the portion of the FRWRD's 8-inch force main and the 30-inch casing pipe
installed within the easement premises to the City of Elgin.
