Currently, the Village of Arlington Heights owns and operates 15 elevators located in public buildings and parking garages. The Public Works Department regularly bids preventative maintenance services for elevators within Village Hall, the Police Department, Fire Station #2, the Vail Parking Garage, North Parking Garage, and the Underground Garage. Routine elevator maintenance is crucial to ensure the safety and functionality of these facilities. Further, regular maintenance prevents breakdowns, ensures compliance with safety regulations, and extends the lifespan of the equipment.

On October 5, 2020, the Village Board awarded a three-year contract with Mid-American Elevator for elevator maintenance services at various Village facilities and parking garages. 

Mid-American Elevator has been responsive to the Village's elevator needs and has provided timely service. Public Works Staff has been satisfied with the quality of work provided by the contractor and recommends that the Village Board award the second of three possible one-year contract extensions for elevator maintenance services to Mid-American Elevator of East Dundee, Illinois. 

Funding for these services is available in Account No. 101-7101-521020, 235-7302-521020, 235-7303-521020, and 235-7304-521020.
