TO: Mayor Thomas J. Weisner
FROM: Jason Bauer, P.E., Engineering Coordinator
DATE: February 25, 2016
SUBJECT:
A resolution authorizing the Director of Purchasing to enter into a contract with Visu-Sewer of Illinois, LLC, 9014 S. Thomas Avenue, Bridgeview, IL, 60455 for the Lincoln Avenue CIPP Lining Project in the amount of $280,188.00.
PURPOSE:
To enter into an agreement with Visu-Sewer to install a 24" CIPP Liner within various sections of the sanitary sewer under Lincoln Avenue from Spring Street to Superior Street.
BACKGROUND:
The sections of sanitary sewer that will be lined as a part of this project are the remaining sections that were not replaced during the 2014 Lincoln Avenue Emergency Sewer Repair Project. In 2014 it was determined via sewer televising that various sections of the 25 foot deep, 24" sanitary sewer under Lincoln Avenue had either failed or were near failure and that emergency repairs were required. During that construction of that project, it was observed that various sections of the remaining pipe adjacent to the repair sections were also in poor condition. In lieu of replacing those sections of pipe, it was determined that lining would be a more cost effective solution and that the lining should be completed in the near future to avoid any additional sewer collapses.
DISCUSSION:
Visu-Sewer's bid of $280,188.00 was the lowest responsible bid of the two (2) bids received. The City of Aurora has budgeted the required funds in the 2016 Budget in account # 510-4063-511-7314.
IMPACT STATEMENT:
This work will require traffic control consisting of temporary lane closures with short delays. No closures or major traffic impacts are anticipated.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
I request the proposed resolution be adopted.
