Title
Downtown Orland Park - First Amendment to Declaration of Easement and Reciprocal Easement Agreement between the Village and the University of Chicago Medical Center (UCMC)
History
Attached is an Amendment to the Declarations and Covenants originally entered into between the Village of Orland Park and the University of Chicago Medical Center (UCMC) in 2015. This Amendment comes about because one of Edwards Realty’s main prospective tenants (a restaurant use) needs customer access to the surface parking lot at 5PM every day.
Currently 157 spaces in that lot are reserved for the UCMC users until 6PM on weekdays. UCMC is willing to make this concession to accommodate the restaurant, but asks that an additional 25 spaces be committed to UCMC for the time prior to 5PM.
Edwards does not believe that dedication of the additional 25 spaces to UCMC prior to 5PM will adversely affect their prospective users.
In addition, UCMC is asking that the Village hold UCMC harmless from liability claims by non-UCMC customers that may arise against UCMC on account of this change. Because there will be an increase in the public use of the surface lot and because the Village carries insurance coverage for all its parking facilities, staff believes this to be a reasonable request and supports this amendment.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve the First Amendment to Declaration of Easement and Reciprocal Easement Agreement between the Village and the University of Chicago Medical Center (UCMC);
AND
Authorize the Village Manager to execute said First Amendment.
