Title/Name/Summary
14725 Holly Court - REIRS, AR
History
The purpose of this petition (Anthony and Marie Gudauskas) is to obtain funding assistance from the REIRS program to install twelve (12) new windows and one (1) new patio door that are energy efficient. The new windows and door will replace the existing inefficient systems on the single family home at 14725 Holly Court (27-09-302-031), in the Cameno Re’al subdivision, an R-3A Residential District.
The petitioners are seeking a grant up to $5,000 in project reimbursement, which is the maximum the REIRS program will provide. The total cost of the improvements is valued at $12,180.00.
On October 18, 2010 the Parks, Recreation and Environmental Initiatives Committee moved 2-0 to recommend to the Village Board to approve the Residential Exterior Insulation and Re-Siding Program application for $5,000.00 from EECBG in matching grant funds to replace eleven (11) windows and one (1) door on the single family home at 14725 Holly Court with Energy Star qualified windows and doors from Sunrise Windows, subject to the following conditions:
1. That the bid from Evergreen Door and Window for $12,180 is used for the proposed window and door replacement;
2. That all National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) requirements are met with regard to the hauling away of discarded materials to land fills;
3. That salvageable materials be recycled as much as possible.
ATTACHMENTS:
REIRS program project attachments containing bid and product specification information are available for review at the Development Services Department or in the Clerk's Office. They are not attached to this report due to the quantity of paper copies needed to present them.
Lowest Bid and Matching Grant
The REIRS program provides up to 50% of the cost of work or $5,000, whichever is less. The program requires that the lowest bid of the two be selected.
Fifty percent (50%) of the Evergreen Door and Window bid is $6,090.
Fifty percent (50%) of the Next Door and Window bid is $7,155.
The lowest bid is from Evergreen Door and Window. However the petitioner will only receive the maximum amount allowed by the REIRS program: $5,000.
This case is now before the Village Board of Trustees for final review/ approval.
Financial Impact
Funding is provided through the US Department of Energy’s Energy Efficiency Conservation Block Grant (EECBG), which was funded via the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009. The REIRS program is a US DOE approved Project Activity under EECBG.
Total REIRS assistance for this project: $5,000.00.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve the Residential Exterior Insulation and Re-Siding Program application for $5,000.00 from EECBG in matching grant funds for the property at 14725 Holly Court as indicated in the attached fully referenced motion.
