DATE: March 22, 2021
SUBJECT:
A resolution to award the Eastview Estates CMP 18"-30" Storm Sewer CIPP Lining located in Ward 1 to Hoerr Construction, Inc., 1416 County Road 200 N. P.O. Box 65, Goodfield, IL 61742 in the bid amount of one hundred eighty-three thousand, nine hundred thirty dollars and zero cents. ($183,930.00)
PURPOSE:
To install cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) liners and extend the life of approximately 1,185' of corrugated metal storm sewer pipe that runs east to west from Felten Road to west of Violet Avenue.
BACKGROUND:
The locations of the storm sewers to be lined can be seen in attached Exhibit A - Location Map. This pipe was installed in mid-1960's as part of the Eastview Estates Subdivision and has recently started presenting sinkholes. Lining this sewer will extend the life of the pipe and eliminate costly digging repairs.
DISCUSSION:
Four bids were received, opened, and read aloud on March 10, 2021. The bid tabulation can be seen in the attached Exhibit C. The lowest responsible bid in the amount of $183,930.00 was submitted by Hoerr Construction, Inc. The sewer improvements ($183,930.00) will be funded with account 280-1852-512-81-23 (B037) which has a 2021 Budget amount of $643,000.00. Also included as Exhibits B & D are the advertisement for bid and Hoerr Construction, Inc.'s submitted bid. Hoerr Construction, Inc. has not done work in the City of Aurora recently, so their references were contacted which resulted in favorable reviews.
This project was subject to the Local Preference Ordinance, however no local contractors submitted.
IMPACT STATEMENT:
Lining this storm sewer will prevent the likelihood of additional sinkholes from occurring in the roadway or on private property as a result of the metal pipe continuing to rust and rot. The contractor may need access structures located in the backyards of a couple of properties via easements. Any restoration required from accessing those structures will be performed to match existing conditions.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
I request the proposed resolution awarding the contract to Hoerr Construction, Inc., in the amount of one hundred eighty-three thousand, nine hundred thirty dollars and zero cents. ($183,930.00) be adopted."
