Title
108th Avenue Bulk Material Transfer Storage Facility Site Grading and Bin Preparation - Bid Award
History
On July 7, 2014, the Village Board approved a site plan and special use permit for the Public Works Bulk Storage Temporary Facility located at 16401 108th Avenue.
Legal notices soliciting bids for this site work was posted in the SouthtownStar Newspaper on Thursday, January 8, 2015. Five (5) bids were received for processing and the sealed bids were opened by the Village Clerk’s Office on Thursday, January 22, 2015.
Bids were received by, Airy’s Inc., of Tinley Park, IL; Austin Tyler Construction, Inc., of Elwood, IL; Bisping Construction Co., Inc., of New Lenox, IL; Misfits Construction Company of Chicago, IL and RNR Contractors, Inc. of Morris, IL. Bid amounts are listed in the Bid Tabulation attachment.
The site work will prepare the facility to accommodate a linear series of concrete bins parallel to the south property line, complete with a berm to facilitate future landscaping and fencing around the perimeter of the facility. The installation of the berm around the site requires some earth excavation and grading. Stormwater management is also included as part of the work.
The bid included an alternate project for the construction of the interlocking concrete blocks to create the bin areas. Site work includes the “seating” of the interlocking concrete bins that will be installed at the site.
Staff recommends accepting the lowest bid of $162,718.40 submitted by Bisping Construction Co., Inc. of New Lenox, Illinois.
On February 2, 2015, this item was reviewed and approved by the Public Works Committee and referred to the Board for approval.
