SUBJECT:
A resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute an agreement with H.R. Greene, Inc., 8 E. Galena Blvd. Suite 305, Aurora, IL for Engineering Services for the Indian Trail Road (Orchard Road to Edgelawn Drive) Resurfacing Project, MFT Section # 15-00305-00-RS, and the City Clerk to sign the associated Motor Fuel Tax Resolution.

PURPOSE:
To prepare plans, specifications, and estimates for a state letting to complete resurfacing improvements on Indian Trail Road in accordance with IDOT Local Agency Functional Overlay (LAFO) guidelines.

BACKGROUND:
The City of Aurora submitted this project for the Local Agency Functional Overlay (LAFO) Program through the Kane, Kendall Council of Mayors. The project was ranked high on the list and STP funds have been appropriated for construction and construction engineering at a 70/30 cost split.

DISCUSSION:
The LAFO program requires the local agency to fully fund the design engineering. This is the reason for this resolution. The Engineering Services agreement is for an amount not to exceed $22,000.00. Plans and specifications will be prepared for IDOT review and approval under this agreement. We are targeting a July 31, 2015 letting date for this project. The estimated construction cost is $420,000.00 of which 70% will be funded by the LAFO program through IDOT. The 2015 City Budget provides funding for this item in Account 203-4460-431.76-09 (Motor Fuel Tax Fund).

IMPACT STATEMENT:
No impact to roadway traffic in this design phase.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
Please forward this resolution to the Finance Committee for their review and recommendation for approval.
