BACKGROUND

Bids were duly advertised and publicly opened on May 22, 2014 for the 2014 Resurfacing Program and Sidewalk Program.  Part of the bid proposal included two options to resurface the Senior Center Parking Lot. The bid proposal received from Arrow Road Construction for Option A was $112,361.90. The bid proposal for Option B was $233,788.90. Because the budget for the Senior Center parking lot was only $100,000, neither option was awarded with the base bid for the Resurfacing Program and Sidewalk Program. Staff has since completed an additional review, including discussions with the Senior Center Staff, and determined that awarding the bid for Option A is the most economical way to resurface the lot.

RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the Village Board amend the Senior Center Parking Lot budget in account 401-5001-571-5030 ST0901 in the amount of $12,362, using contingency funds from 401-9901-571-4096,  and authorize a change order to the Arrow Road Resurfacing Program and Sidewalk Program contract to allow the completion of the resurfacing of the Senior Center Parking Lot.
