Title/Name/Summary
LaGrange Road Enhancements - Construction Management/Implementation Funding
History
As part of the Village's FY 2014-15 budgets, $7,000,000 was budgeted and approved to be utilized for construction of the LaGrange Road aesthetic enhancements through an At-Risk Construction Management delivery method. The Village enhancements include brick paver sidewalks, irrigation, stone/brick monuments, stone/brick columns, decorative fencing, various plantings and decorative stone/brick median walls. To date approximately $900,000 has been spent coordinating and implementing the construction of various enhancement items. These items include management and supervision, permit and bonds, material testing, brick paver and colored concrete work at 167th and 171st, electrical conduit placed in the medians south of 159th, irrigation conduit and controller installed south of 159th, water main connection at the Toys R Us property, and the planting of trees along the east parkway of LaGrange south of 159th.
Funds for the Village enhancements were budgeted in three fiscal year, 2014 - $3.5M, 2015 - $3.5M and 2016 - $1.88M totaling $8,887,405. In addition V3 was originally contracted to provide construction observation services for the LaGrange Road work. However, since the project was transferred to a construction management project the remaining $711,486.53 is proposed to be added to the current construction management project for a total cost of $9,598,891.53. It is important to have the necessary funds available for implementation of the enhancements as the LaGrange Road widening project progresses. Attached in Legistar is an anticipated scope of work for 2016 and into 2017. V3 will assemble specific trade bid packages which will be publicly bid and opened. The Village will approve the bid packages which will be billed against the not-to-exceed Construction Management Contract. The LaGrange Road corridor project is a high profile local and regional project. The Village has invested significant resources to deliver a project that is above and beyond a typical IDOT project. The ability to coordinate and construct the enhancements within the same time frame as IDOT's project schedule with the quality the Village expects is critical to the success of this project.
