The Division of Utilities is requesting the Board of Public Works' approval of a Supplemental
Easement Agreement between the City of South Bend and Indiana Michigan Power Company with
regard to facilities managed by both parties near the Calvert Street and Renewable Drive

Project No. 116-053 Calvert Street Lift Station Replacement relocated the access to the new "Calvert
Street Lift Station", now renamed the "Renewable Drive Lift Station", to provide access from
Renewable Drive. With the relocation of a new access drive to traverse below existing high
transmission electrical power lines, the Division of Utilities and Indiana Michigan Power Company
worked with DLZ Indiana to update the existing easement to accompany the following changes (see
Supplemental Easement Agreement) which further update the existing easement agreements
pertaining to the subject parcels of land.
Please refer to the subject Supplemental Easement Agreement. We recommend that the Board of
Public Works approve the Supplemental Easement Agreement at the September 26, 2017 Board of
Public Works Regular Meeting.
