Title
Pavement Marking - Additional Funding
History
Precision Pavement Markings, Inc. (PPMI) of Elgin, Illinois has performed pavement markings on Village roads and parking lots for the past four years. Years 2017-2019 were under a three-year contract term (Innoprise Contract # C17-0072), while this current year was under a one-year extension granted in late April 2020 on account of potential bidding difficulties anticipated during the COVID-19 pandemic. This extension was granted via an addendum to the original contract. Throughout the contract period, the Village has experienced excellent client service and excellent pavement marking durability from PPMI.
PPMI has improved numerous locations throughout the Village in 2020 from August through October. Most notably, three large & lengthy high-traffic streets (143rd Street from John Humphrey to Harlem, Orland Parkway and 94th Avenue) consumed the bulk of the contract. Near the end of the construction season, it was discovered that some additional street areas and the 153rd Street commuter parking lot required pavement marking maintenance to maintain visibility and safety for motorists.
Staff determined that in order to keep the safety of the public its highest priority, the additional striping should be performed resulting in an overage of $7,178.04 to the not to exceed value of $125,000.00.
Financial Impact
Funds are available in Road Improvement Capital Account 054-0000-47125 to cover the exceeded value of the contract.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve a change order authorizing additional funding for pavement marking services, under the existing 2020 contract with Precision Pavement Markings, Inc. of Elgin, Illinois in an amount not to exceed $7,178.04.
