Summary: Summary: Under the intergovernmental agreement ("IGA"), Cook County will receive a 20-year indefeasible right of use ("IRU") for eight strands of dark fiber optic cable running along the I-57 corridor. These fibers will enable the County's Oak Forest campus and Markham courthouse to connect to what will ultimately be a high-capacity fiber backbone for Cook County. Also under the IGA, SSMMA will be responsible for maintenance and repairs to the fiber. In exchange, the County will pay SSMMA a one-time upfront fee of $18,000.00 $ 27,000.00 and an annual maintenance fee of $7,500.00 in each year of the 20-year agreement. Additionally, Cook County will pay its proportionate share of any non-routine maintenance and repair costs, along with SSMMA and other entities that hold IRUs in the same fiber path.
The Cook County State's Attorney's Office has approved this IGA as to form.
