Title
Parkview Estates Subdivision Stormwater Improvements - Engineering Services
History
Christopher B. Burke Engineering, Ltd. (CBBEL) has previously provided preliminary engineering design services which included a detailed hydrologic and hydraulic analysis aimed at reducing the risk of flooding in the Parkview Estates Subdivision. As part of the preliminary engineering, interim improvements were recommended and implemented. Those improvements have provided relief for minor rain events that previously caused flooding. Based on the results of the analysis, Village staff recommends proceeding with final engineering to provide protection during long duration and high intensity rain events. Due to anticipated modifications to existing stormwater facilities, significant topographic surveying and coordination with the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District is anticipated.
On July 5, 2012, the Village received a proposal from CBBEL to prepare final engineering and bid specifications for the Parkview Estates Subdivision Stormwater Improvements. Staff has reviewed the proposal from CBBEL and finds it to be of good value for the scope of work and fees to be appropriate.
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
Sufficient funds are available within line item #031-6007-470500 for this work.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve awarding a contract to Christopher B. Burke Engineering, Ltd. of Rosemont, Illinois, for professional engineering services as outlined in their July 5, 2012, proposal for the Parkview Estates Subdivision Stormwater Improvements in an amount not to exceed $102,400.
