Parker, City Manager SUBJECT: Roadway License Agreement with Commonwealth Edison Company Associated with the Otter Creek Lift Station PURPOSE The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and members of the City Council with information to consider executing a Roadway License Agreement with Commonwealth Edison Company for the purpose of installing an access roadway within their right-of-way. BACKGROUND In order to provide sanitary sewer service to future developments west of Randall Road, a sanitary sewer lift station must be constructed to pump sewage to the Bowes Road Interceptor Sewer at Bowes and Randall Roads . The City acquired a parcel of property located north of Hopps Road and east of the Union Pacific Railroad tracks for the location of the proposed Otter Creek Lift Station. There are no exiting roads adjacent to the property. Until the area to the east develops, temporary access to the site must be provided with a temporary road across adjacent property. After unsuccessfully pursuing several alternatives, a road south from the site to Hopps Road was determined to be the best one . Using this route results in the road crossing Commonwealth Edison right-of-way to create the entrance off of Hopps Road. A map (Exhibit A) is attached showing the location of the lift station and entrance. A request was submitted to Commonwealth Edison to construct the lift station roadway entrance across their right-of-way. Commonwealth Edison has agreed to allow the entrance within their right-of-way and has provided the attached Roadway License Agreement (Exhibit B) for City Council consideration. The agreement allows the entrance to serve the site for ten years by which time development in the area should have provided closer, alternate access . Roadway License Agreement with ComEd June 5, 2001 Page 2 Subsequent to negotiations with Commonwealth Edison for this access agreement, the City was approached by several potential developers of the far west planning area with a request to consider an alternate location along Bowes Road for the sewage pumping station and associated force main. The developers felt that the proposed Bowes Road site would have a lesser impact on future land planning and it would also be easier to obtain required easements for the force main. At that time the City agreed to consider the Bowes Road site, thus eliminating the need for the access agreement with Commonwealth Edison. However, after several recent meetings between City staff, land owners and developer representatives, it has been determined that the original proposed Hopps Road site would best serve the majority of involved parties' needs . Therefore, the subject access agreement needs to be executed. The landowners/developers have also agreed to expedite acquisition of easements for the sewer force main. These easements could be in place by mid-July 2001 . COMMUNITY GROUPS/INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED None . FINANCIAL IMPACT The cost of the Roadway License Agreement is $1, 500 and is consistent with other easement agreements the City has entered into with Commonwealth Edison. This expenditure will be charged to account number 395-4200-795 . 92-32, project number 339505, Otter Creek Lift Station. Sufficient monies are available to fund this expenditure. AVLEGAL IMPACT None . ALTERNATIVES None . . . raw Roadway License Agreement with ComEd June 5, 2001 Page 3 RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that City Council approve the Roadway License Agreement with Commonwealth Edison and authorize the City Manager to execute the Agreement at a total cost of $1, 500 . spectfully submit , a // olL.,— oyce A.
