The City currently uses the property as the parking lot for the Transit facility and <br /> we have been parking below the high transmission lines here for years and would continue to do so even after easement granted. <br /> Ameren Illinois is expanding their transmission easements throughout the region to a full 100'up and down the corridor. The City <br /> will not be harmed in any way through this expansion. <br /> Ameren has offered the City$1,650.00 for this small strip of property(.107 acre)and staff finds that to be a reasonable offer. It is <br /> our recommendation that we accept their offer and grant them this additional easement along their existing transmission route. <br /> PRIOR COUNCIL ACTION: There have been no prior Council actions regarding these proposed easements. <br /> POTENTIAL OBJECTIONS: None. <br /> INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: <br /> Ameren Illinois Company <br /> STAFF REFERENCE: Matt Newell,Director of Public Works and Deputy City Manager Jon Kindseth will attend the City <br /> Council meeting to answer any questions of the Council on this item. <br /> BUDGET/TIME IMPLICATIONS: This will provide a small amount of unanticipated revenue($1,650.00)to the City. <br /> ATTACHMENTS: <br /> Description Type <br /> Ordinance Granting Expansion to Permanent Easement {}�.�tEaz�c <br /> with Exhibit 1 <br /> Location Map Backup Material <br /> https:/Jdecatur.novusagenda.com/AgendaWebICoverSheet.aspx?ltemlD=2967 �/� <br />
