FROM: Eric J. Gallt, City Traffic Engineer
DATE: November 12, 2014
SUBJECT:
A Resolution amending an Intergovernmental Agreement with the State of Illinois for Traffic Signal Maintenance and Electrical Energy responsibilities dated July 1, 2011.
PURPOSE:
To obtain approval for an Amendment to Intergovernmental Agreement with the State for Traffic Signal Maintenance and Electrical Energy responsibilities.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Aurora entered into an Intergovernmental Agreement with the State for traffic signal maintenance and electrical energy responsibilities dated July 1, 2011 that included signalized intersections (As indicated in Attachment A). The cost share in the existing Exhibit A of the Master Agreement was incorrectly identified by the State as 66 2/3%-State, 33 1/3%-City for both maintenance and energy at mentioned US 34 intersections, and 50%-State -25% City on energy at IL59 that requires revisions to reflect with current condition.
DISCUSSION:
To correct the occurred inaccuracy, an Amendment to the City's Master Agreement- Exhibit A is in order to reflect and comply with the current condition and Jurisdictions. State needs 3 copies of the Amendment executed by the City and returned to IDOT for final processing and execution so a completed Amendment could be sent back to the City upon its execution. A provision for the City's Jurisdictions at the intersections (Attachment A) share of cost responsibility is indicated in Attachment B.
IMPACT STATEMENT:
Maintenance cost as indicated will be applicable from the City's part.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff recommends approval of the Amended Intergovernmental Agreement.
