Approve the Resolution
Fiscal Impact
The daily rate for lease of the Village’s property is $1,650.00.
Background
From time to time, the Village enters into parking lot license agreements for Village owned parking lots and vacant parcels. Redhawk seeks to use the Village owned parcels to set up trailers for the cast and crew of the television series Fargo. Redhawk expects to film in Oak Park 1-2 days a month between late October 2019 and March 2020.
Redhawk understands that the Village previously entered into a lease agreement with Joseph Dombrowski for a portion of the Village’s parking lot between late November through December 24, 2019 to sell trees. Redhawk has agreed to allow the tree sales to continue during any potential filming dates in November and December.
Alternatives
The Village Board could seek additional information, however this request is time sensitive with the filming dates approaching.
Previous Board Action
On October 7, 2019, the Village Board approved a parking lot license agreement with Joseph Dombrowski to sell trees in November and December.
