Re: Grant of Perpetual Easement over Village of Lemont Property
Situated at Stephen and River Streets in Lemont, Illinois, for
Ingress and Egress to the Metropolitan Water Reclamation
District Lemont Plant — Our File No. 95 H 030
Dear Mayor Kwasneski:
At its meeting of May 1, 1997, the Board of Commissioners of the District
authorized a 20 -year lease to the Village for the use of approximately 17,100 square feet
of District land located on the southwest corner of the District's Lemont Water
Reclamation Plant property and consented to a 20 -year license agreement between the
Village of Lemont and the Safety Village Commission. The area of the leasehold was
subsequently expanded to include 23,100 square feet as depicted on a survey prepared in
accordance with a revised site plan provided by the Village.
The District granted the lease in consideration of the Village of Lemont's
agreement to grant a perpetual easement to the District for a permanent access road
across the Village's property to the Lemont Water Reclamation Plant entrance.
The easement agreement will not be executed until the legal description for the
permanent access road is prepared, which will be done after the proposed improvements
to the Safety Village are completed. Therefore, this letter will serve as the Village's
agreement to grant the District an access road easement subject to the following:
I. The Village will immediately notify the District upon completion of the
construction of the improvements proposed for the Safety Village.
2. The Village will allow the District access to its property for the purpose
of developing a survey of the proposed roadway, commencing at Stephen
Street on the west and extending in a northeast direction to the entrance
of the District's Lemont Water Reclamation Plant. The road will have
a width of not less than 20 feet.
