Re: Relocation of overhead electric facilities along First Street in Lemont Illinois as occupied
Mr. Cainkar,
This letter is in reply to an inquiry regarding the Village of Lemon's (the Village) request to relocate ComEd's (the
Company) overhead electric lines along First Street. More specifically, the subject electric lines are currently situated
along the west side of First Street from McCarthy Road to Schultz Street.
The estimated cost to relocate the existing overhead facilities is approximately $128,000. Please remember this cost
represents a high level "Order of Magnitude" estimate without support of an engineering design and is being provided
to the Village to assist in your decision - making and budget process. The final costs may be higher or lower
depending on mutual agreement of facilities relocated, final engineering design, difficulty of work area and what the
accepted contract bid is for performing the work. This estimate is for the relocation of ComEd electric facilities only.
The Village will need to contact other utilities for their relocation cost, if applicable- The "Order of Magnitude"
estimate presented includes only a rough grade back fill of all areas disturbed by the ComEd construction removal
and installation of equipment. All restoration, finished grading, sodding and/or seeding is to be completed by the
Village within both the right- of-way and private property areas.
Please note that this estimate assumes that the Village will pay for the relocation of 5 poles which are currently
located outside of the right of way, including three secondary underground cables. The 3 poles along this road located
within right of way would be moved at the Company's expense per the Company's franchise agreement with the
Village. Also, please note that AT &T would perform final removal of the poles. We do not include this cost.
If the Village desires to proceed with relocation, there will be an advance engineering charge required of $12,80 0.
This engineering charge is Iron- refundable, and will be applied towards the total cost of the project if the Village
authorizes the construction work to proceed.
When the final cost estimate is calculated, there are two payment options available to the Village. The first would be
a progressive payment schedule. This would include a first partial payment prior to the start of construction with the
potential for multiple payments as construction progresses. Final invoicing will occur upon completion of all work
The second option would be under Rider LOC, Local Government Compliance Clause, where ComEd applies an
additional "per kilowatt -hour charge" onto the monthly bills of all customers within the municipal boundaries of
Lemont. As costs for this project are incurred each month, the appropriate share of those costs will be reflected as a
separate litre item charge on the monthly bills of the customers. The "per kilowatt- hour" charges will continue until
the project is completed and all costs for the project are reflected on ComEd's books of account.
If you have questions please feel free to call me directly.
Sincerely, FOR APPLICANT
