A ccepts Constract toObtus,, Permit for New Bilding An agreement was reached Tues- 'dynight between ýthe Village and Mary Ellen Maclean,,whereby the latter is: to receive a permit to erect a one-story building at, the south- west corner' of Lake avenue and Rige.avenue. 'The permit has been withheld for sometime because of plans of the Village to widen these two streets at some future time, and it was niot thought to be in. the in- terest of the taxpayers of the village to allow. the construction of a build- ing on ground that might have to be condemned in a few years and dam- ages paid on building as well asý ground. Plans for the building provided for utilizing the full width of the lot on the Lake avenue side, the front to be set back on the lot, facing Ridge avenue, to provide for future widen- ing. The construction anticipates the addition of another story at some later date. The agreement finally reached was that Mrs. Maclean was to enter into a contract with the V'illage to tbe effect that if the Village condemns the required 7 feet of ground on the Lake avenue frontage to permit of widening within 10 years, the owner is to make no dlaim for damages on either the ground or tbe building, use for that period to be considered ful compensation. If the Village con- demns after, 10 years, tbe owner is to make no dlaim for damage to the building, but may dlaim damage for the 7 feet of, ground required. Mrs. Maclean was represented at tbe meeting of the board 'Tuesday night by ber son,' who stated that he b.ad been advised, by counsel tbat ,euch an, agreement would constitute a cloud on the title, and that there- fore be would withdraw consent to the contract and Mrs. Maclean would not sign it. Howevrer, upon being told that tbe permit for the building would not be issued, he again agreed to the contract, and thus the matter settled. AT SKOKIE.
