DATE: February 24, 2025
SUBJECT:
A resolution to accept Anthem Excavation & Demolition Inc. Aurora IL for citywide Junk and Trash removal services due to code enforcement citations.
PURPOSE:
To obtain City Council approval for Junk and Trash removal due to code enforcement citations.
BACKGROUND:
Property Standards is responsible for the enforcement of the Junk and Trash ordinance on private property. Junk and Trash removal is an important part of the abatement process to maintain the neighborhood affected in a safe and sanitary condition.
DISCUSSION:
A formal bid request was sent out for the Junk and Trash removal services for private properties after being cited and the abatement hasn't been attained by the owner of the property within the City of Aurora Illinois. Responses were received from four vendors with Anthem Excavation & Demolition Inc. of Aurora, IL being the lowest, responsible bidder.
This bid was subject to the local preference ordinance; however, it did not impact the decision.
The contract will be for a one (1) year term with two (2) one-year extensions based on mutual agreement between the contractor and the City of Aurora.
Funding for the services will be account 101-1827-424.36-20. The account has enough funds to cover expenses through 2025 and will continue to be funded in future years.
IMPACT STATEMENT:
This resolution must be approved to provide Junk and trash abatement services through code enforcement citations within the City of Aurora Illinois limits.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
The request is for the approval of Anthem Excavation & Demolition Inc. services.
