SUBJECT:
A Resolution to Award a Contract to Gerardi Sewer and Water Company, Inc. of 4520 N. Osage Avenue, Norridge, IL. 60706 for the Tanglewood and Carriage Hill Drive Water Main Replacement Project. BGI Committee - March 10, 2014.

PURPOSE:
To award a contract on the above referenced project

BACKGROUND:
The existing 6" cast iron main is deteriorated and has experienced numerous main breaks over the past few years. This has resulted in several water outages for the residents within this area

DISCUSSION:
The replacement of this main will reduce or eliminate breaks in this area and the frequency of water outages experienced by the residents, therefore reducing the costs to the City for repairing main breaks.

Fourteen (14) bids were received and publically opened and read aloud on Wednesday, February 26, 2014. The low bid was submitted by Gerardi Sewer and Water Company, Inc. in the amount of $816,066.25. The 2014 budget contains funding for this project in project IC076 account number 510-4058-511.73-02 (Water and Sewer Fund).

IMPACT STATEMENT:
This project will reduce the amount of reactive maintenance and allow more time for preventative maintenance by City crews. Water service interruptions will be reduced or eliminated.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
We respectfully request this item be forwarded to the BGI Committee for their review and recommendation for approval.
