As the City Council is aware, as part of the State Route 120 Improvement Project, the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) is acquiring land from several property owners along State Route 120. IDOT is requesting that the City of McHenry authorize the sale of 871-square feet of city property on the north side of State Route 120 west of the Zion Lutheran Church. The acquisition of this land is necessary to the Route 120 Improvement Project. IDOT must extend the box culvert located underneath the state highway and subsequently, the bike path must be relocated; all costs associated with this are paid by the State of Illinois. Attached for City Council review is a copy of the appraisal obtained by IDOT assessing the value of the property at $11,000. It is recommended that the City Council accept IDOT’s offer to purchase the 871-square feet of property at the appraised value of $11,000; and, to authorize the Mayor’s execution of the attached Quit Claim Deed allowing for the acquisition of the property depicted on the attached map subject to approval by the City Attorney. mmg Attach.
