What this form is
The property owner identifies the real estate and requested improvement, then agrees to pay for repair or replacement if Village facility work damages or removes that improvement. The form covers driveway aprons with pavers or radiant heating, certain water service work, private storm sewer outlets, lawn irrigation systems, and private sanitary sewer cleanouts. The Village uses it when an owner requests permission to construct one of these improvements within the existing public right-of-way.
Who needs it
An owner requesting Village permission to install one of the listed improvements in the public right-of-way needs to complete this covenant.
