SUBJECT:
A Resolution authorizing the execution of a Phase 2 Design Engineering Agreement with Crawford, Murphy & Tilly, Inc. in the not to exceed amount of $412,745.00, and the appropriation of $430,000.00 of REBUILD Illinois Bond Funds for the Sullivan Road - Edgelawn Dr to Golden Oaks Pkwy Project.

At the moment this project has secured a little over $1,000,000.
