Title
153rd Street Watermain Repair - Board Approval
History
On February 27, 2013, at approximately 6:30 a.m., a watermain break occurred at the northeast corner of 153rd Street and Hickory Drive (102 West). Due to the scale of the break, Austin Tyler Construction, LLC of Elwood, Illinois, was contracted to complete the repair since they are the chosen watermain replacement contractor working in the adjacent Orland Hills Gardens Subdivision.
Since most of their equipment was already nearby, they were able to complete the emergency repair before the end of the workday.
On March 18, 2013, 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 Underground Water Lines/Valves (Account #031-6002-443800) for this emergency repair.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve payment to Austin Tyler Construction, LLC of Elwood, Illinois, for the February 27, 2013, emergency watermain repair on 153rd Street and Hickory Drive in an amount not to exceed $5,288.
