Title
Ravinia Avenue North Extension - Phase II Professional Engineering Design Services - Proposal
History
Following acquisition of the Orland Plaza, professional engineering design services are required for the completion of Phase II Engineering for the roadways in this area.
Staff requested a scope and fee proposal from SPACECO, Inc. to advance engineering for the demolition, site work grading improvements, public utilities infrastructure, roadway design and aesthetic enhancements. As SPACECO prepared the Phase I work, they were requested to provide a proposal for this work because the Phase II work is a furtherance of their initial work.
SPACECO has partnered with Christopher B. Burke Engineering Ltd. for civil and electrical engineering and has also retained Norris Design as the designer for the aesthetic enhancements to build upon work completed by Norris related to the 143rd Street and LaGrange Road Intersection Improvement project. In addition, the Project team includes Testing Services Corporation for Geotechnical work, and E. Cooney Associates for the Environmental component, both have previously done work for the Village in this area.
Work included under the SPACECO proposal includes general site work, “B” Street from Ravinia Avenue to Jefferson Avenue and Ravinia and Jefferson Avenues north of 143rd Street. An allowance has been included for bid review and recommendation, field construction layout work and design support during construction.
On July 18, 2011, this item was reviewed and approved by the Public Works and Engineering Committee and referred to the Board for approval.
