Title/Name/Summary
145th Place Sidewalk Installation and 82nd Avenue East Ditch Improvements (Katy Lane to Kristo Lane), Contract Amendment #2
History
On April 21, 2025, the Village Board approved a construction contract with Davis Concrete Construction Company for concrete sidewalk construction along the north side of 145th Place and drainage improvements associated with the 82nd Avenue East Ditch Improvements project.
The 145th Place Sidewalk construction has since been canceled by the Village. Although construction had not begun, Davis Concrete performed preparatory work including accounting setup, subcontract preparation, field visits, project preplanning, and coordination with project managers and superintendents. Davis Concrete initially requested compensation in the amount of $11,753.67 for this work, which was rejected by the Engineering Department. After further discussion and negotiation, the requested amount was reduced to $5,000.00, and Engineering staff recommends approval of this negotiated amount. The original contract amount for the sidewalk construction was $175,499.50 bringing the revised not-to-exceed total amount to $5,000.00.
The 82nd Avenue East Ditch Improvements were substantially completed in late 2025 with minor restoration and punch list items to be completed in the Spring of 2026. Since this is a Cook County funded project, the engineering plans were required to be reviewed and approved by Cook County’s permit division. As a result of comments received during this review, additional work was required resulting in a cost increase of $7,300.00. The original contract amount for the ditch work was $149,935.00 bringing the revised not-to-exceed total amount to $157,235.00.
In total, the proposed change order includes a reduction of $170,499.20 for the 145th Place Sidewalk Installation and an additional $7,300.00 for the 82nd Avenue East Ditch Improvements.
Funding for the 145th Place Sidewalk related costs will be covered by the Villa...
