FROM: Joseph Hopp, Superintendent of Maintenance Services
DATE: September 26, 2016
SUBJECT:
A Resolution Authorizing a contract per F.H. Paschen's proposal dated September 26, 2016 to replace all Platform/Station Buildings and Tunnel Ramp/Stair Enclosures roofs at the RT 59 Transit Center in an amount not to exceed $220,000.00.
PURPOSE:
This project will replace all of the RT 59 Transit Center Platform Buildings Roofs. The roof specification, project bidding, and oversight will be completed through the Naperville Cooperative Job Order Contract Program.
BACKGROUND:
The six building roofs at the RT 59 Transit Center are deteriorating due to age as well as high winds that have blown off shingles. $25,000 was carried over from 2015 for the repair of roof sections. After further inspection it has been determined that all roofs should be replaced.
DISCUSSION:
The roof replacement proposal from F.H. Paschen is $207,900. The buildings are less than 25 feet from the BNSF railroad tracks resulting in additional requirements which increase the overall cost of this project. The contractor is limited to work between the hours of 8 AM to 3 PM. An additional $13,000 contingency is included to address unforeseen conditions that may arise.
This full cost of this project was not budgeted in 2016 however Metra has agreed to contribute $90,000 in an Intergovernmental Funding Agreement as long as the project is completed in 2016. In addition, the City of Naperville has agreed to contribute up to $65,000 for the roof replacement. The City's share of this project should not exceed $65,000.
Aurora will be the lead agency for this project since we are the lease holder for these facilities. A budget amendment will be necessary for account 530-4434-437-38-05 to cover the project costs
IMPACT STATEMENT:
There will not be an impact to others.
