SUBJECT:
A resolution to award the 2017 Citywide Pavement Patching for Water and Sewer Maintenance to Builders Paving, 4413 Roosevelt Road #108, Hillside, IL 60162.
PURPOSE:
This is an annual project that is required to patch pavement in the public right of way that was damaged in relation to utility repairs such as water main breaks and sanitary sewer repairs. Builders Paving has provided similar services for the City of Aurora in the past and has performed satisfactory work.
BACKGROUND:
This project was bid publicly, with an advertisement in the Aurora Beacon on January 29th, 2017. Bids were received, opened and read aloud publicly on February 16th, 2017. Three bids were received with the tabulation of those bids attached hereto and incorporated as Exhibit A. The lowest responsible bid was from Builders Paving, of Hillside, IL in the amount of $660,610.00. Copies of the submitted bid and advertisement for bid are attached as Exhibits B & C.
DISCUSSION:
This Citywide project will benefit the entire community, as it is the only contract that will be in place to repair the roadways that are damaged throughout the year due to utility repairs. This work is budgeted for on an annual basis. $595,000 of this contract will be paid for with funds in Account Number 510-4063-511-38-38 and the remainder of the contract will be covered by various capital projects depending on the location and type of pavement patch or restoration to be completed.
IMPACT STATEMENT:
Construction is expected to begin in late April and will continue throughout the construction season depending on the number of utility repairs that are completed. Impacts to the public will be minimal, but will consist of short term lane closures associated with the pavement repairs and in certain cases, loss of driveway access to allow adequate time for concrete to cure (when applicable).
RECOMMENDATIONS:
I request the proposed resolution be adopted.
