Title
Emergency Sanitary Sewer Repair - Board Approval
History
On March 26, 2009, a Utility Division crew responded to an emergency request of a sewer blockage on Tamarack Lane. The blockage was temporarily relieved and follow-up investigation identified two problem spots on 88th Avenue requiring point repairs. Both excavations are deeper than the Utility Division crews can safely accomplish.
Proposals for the emergency work were solicited from Airy’s, Inc. of Tinley Park, Illinois, and DiPaolo Construction Company of Calumet Park, Illinois. Airy’s submitted a proposal not to exceed $22,119.92 and DiPaolo submitted a proposal for $37,910.00.
Because the resident has very limited sanitary service, the work was completed on an emergency basis during the week of April 6, 2009, by Airy’s, Inc. - the low bidder.
On April 13, 2009, this item was reviewed and approved by the Public Works and Engineering Committee and referred to the Board for approval.
