Title
9661 West 143rd Street (Orland Associates) - Irrigation Reimbursement
History
Over the past two years, significant construction has occurred adjacent to 9661 West 143rd Street (Orland Associates) as part of the 143rd Street and LaGrange Road Improvement Project. This work included extensive watermain relocation, ComEd undergrounding and roadway improvements. To facilitate these improvements, Orland Associates provided significant property as Right-of-Way (ROW).
The newly provided ROW was previously irrigated as part of the property’s overall irrigation system. Through the course of construction, a large portion of the irrigation system was removed or damaged. As the roadway construction comes to an end, restoration of the irrigation system is required. To ensure the total scope of impact was understood, meetings were held with Orland Associates Management and their irrigation contractor.
Quotes for repair of the irrigation system were requested from both Orland Associates and F.H. Paschen, Inc. (the 143rd Street and LaGrange Road Intersection Improvement Contractor). F.H. Paschen provided a cost of $8,048.81. Orland Associates has submitted the lower proposal of $6,940. As such, the Village of Orland Park will reimburse Orland Associates up to $6,940 for the repair of their irrigation system.
On July 16, 2012, this item was reviewed and approved by the Public Works and Engineering Committee and referred to the Board for approval.
Financial Impact
There are sufficient funds in the 143rd Street & LaGrange Road Capital Improvement Project Fund (Account #054-0000-484800) to cover the cost of this reimbursement.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve reimbursing Orland Associates for the repair of their irrigation system a cost not to exceed $6,940.
