Assistant Public Works Director/Village Engineer Dittrich provided a summary of a contract for the construction of the Village’s 2020 road and bike path resurfacing project with Schroeder Asphalt in an amount not to exceed $1,500,881.22. The contract would cover approximately 2.3 miles of streets, the North Park parking lot, and the Public Works facility parking lot.

Mayor Brandt asked what amount was approved in the budget. Assistant Public Works Director/Village Engineer Dittrich stated the overall budget amount was $1.75 million, so this came in approximately $200,000 under budget.

Trustee Hancock asked if they approve the contract, are they also approving moving forward with this expenditure. Assistant Public Works Director/Village Engineer Dittrich stated this action would approve awarding the bid and moving forward with this expenditure. Trustee Hancock asked what would happen if the Board approved the bid but decided to postpone this expenditure to a future year. Assistant Public Works Director/Village Engineer Dittrich stated the contractor is required to hold the bid for 45 days. If the Village went beyond the 45 days, it would be up to the contractor’s discretion if they wanted to honor work for the as-bid prices or the Village would have to re-bid.

Mayor Brandt asked if the bike portion is coming out of park development funds or a grant. Assistant Public Works Director/Village Engineer Dittrich stated the path was for the work that was done in 2019. The only thing bid out was for streets and parking lots, not for any paths.

Mayor Brandt noted from past experience on the Board, her opinion was to not postpone street projects due to the uncertainty of the times, and the streets included in the contract were in much need of resurfacing.

Trustee Hancock noted concern regarding the economy and might recommend holding off on this expenditure until they knew if the economy would come back before moving ahead.

Trustee Raizin stated she lives in the neighborhood were the resurfacing is proposed, there was recently a watermain break, and the streets are literally crumbling. Trustee Raizin stated she would not be in favor of holding off on the proposed contract.

Trustee Leider stated a possibility would be to hold off on a portion of the contract and do the necessary roadways. Assistant Public Works Director/Village Engineer Dittrich stated if they reduce scope, they would have to re-bid and noted a labor increase contract is coming.

Assistant Public Works Director/Village Engineer Dittrich stated the roadways could wait a few months but if this project was pushed off to another year, there could be additional pot holes and failures that would require additional work and money. Village Manager Burke provided budgetary information regarding how this was moved from the five-year capital plan and what portion would be covered from the use of Park Development funds. Staff recommended this project not be postponed.

Trustee Grujanac moved and Trustee Raizin seconded the motion to approve a Contract for the Construction of the Village’s 2020 Road and Bike Path Resurfacing Project with Schroeder Asphalt Services, Rosemont, IL in an Amount not to exceed $1,500,881.22. The roll call vote was as follows:
