Dear Mr. Werthauser:
With reference to your File Hazel Bridge No. L-5849 and letter dated October
25, 1985 with attachments regarding the replacement of the pedestrian overhead
bridge (CNW #436) located at M.P. 4.53 in St. Paul , MN
The existing 107' PRT Bridge is covered under License dated April 27, 1957,
which states in part, " . ..At anytime that the City determines to construct a
new bridge, this License shall automatically become null and void upon
notification of said intent to the Licensor." Therefore, by copy of this
letter, I am forwarding the bridge plans (Sheets 1-4) and requesting our staff
in Chicago to prepare a new standard License Agreement to cover the proposed
162' truss bridge.
Twenty-three (23) feet is the CNW minimum vertical clearance standard.
However, I am requesting a waiver from our Bridge Engineer to accept the 22'
4-3/4" vertical clearance as shown on your plans.
Enclosed herewith in triplicate is our standard "Release and Indemnification
Agreement". Upon return of the release form properly signed, along with a
letter acknowledging the City's intent to sign a new License Agreement, you
have my approval to store the 162' truss on CNW property near the bridge site
(providing I receive the vertical clearance waiver) .
If you have any questions, please feel free to call me or Mr. Nick in this
office.
Very truly yours ,
. E. Terbell
