Title
2025 Orland Hills East and West Road and Ditch Reconstruction - Bid Award
History
In 2016, the Village embarked on a multi-year plan to upgrade rural cross section roadways annexed into the Village over the years. These roadways were far below current Village standards and required spending considerable resources maintaining the roadways, stormwater ponds, sanitary sewers, and water mains. This undertaking started with the Fernway Subdivision followed by Laguna Hills last year. In 2025 will see the culmination of this endeavor with the completion of the Orland Hills West and Orland Hills East Subdivisions.
The initial plan was to perform the Orland Hills West subdivision project in 2024, and the Orland Hills East subdivision project in 2025. The original contract for the Orland Hills West Construction was terminated for cause in October 2024 due to the timing of the construction project. In an effort to obtain the best pricing, the Village bid both the Orland Hills East and West construction as one (1) cohesive project for 2025.
The Village’s intention is to have the project completed before the end of the 2025 fiscal year.
In February 2023, the Village Board awarded the Orland Hills West design engineering to Engineering Resource Associates (ERA), for storm water and road work. The ERA-designed plans and specifications were then published in RFP 24-021 on BidNet Direct on January 22, 2024.
Also in February 2023, the Village Board awarded the Orland Hills East design engineering to V3 Associates, for stormwater and road work. The V3-designed plans and specifications were then published in RFP 24-063 on BidNet Direct on October 16, 2024.
