Title
Good Shepherd Cemetery/104th Avenue - Bike Path Easement
History
This plat provides the revised easement to cover the proposed bike path lying east of 104th Avenue, between 159th Street and 167th Street, along the west property line of the Good Shepherd Catholic Cemetery. The easement is needed to legally allow for the path to lie upon the cemetery property, outside the 104th Avenue Cook County public right-of-way. The path is not placed in the right-of-way since Cook County expects the path to be owned by the municipality, and a path within the right-of-way would imply County ownership and maintenance responsibility.
Staff has reviewed the plat and finds it to be in conformance with the true location of the bike path, as well as conforming with applicable plat standards. A copy of the plat is attached for reference.
