Title
Kristo Lane and Dorstep Lane/81st Avenue Road Resurfacing - Proposal
History
Pavement resurfacing for Kristo Lane was planned and funded as a component of the Kristo Lane Storm Water Improvement GMP Project. Kristo Lane’s resurfacing was funded at $50,000 from the 2016 Road Program budget. During the beginning of the storm sewer project, it became apparent that the adjacent Dorstep Lane/81st Avenue, initially constructed at the same time as Kristo Lane, is in equally poor condition. With funding currently available, it would be ideal to resurface both streets under the same project.
The formal proposal from Burke LLC, including the expanded scope (resurfacing of both Kristo Lane and Dorstep Lane/81st Avenue) totaled $163,311.00. To gauge whether or not this price was competitive, staff discussed completing this project under the 2016 Road Program. Staff solicited prices from this year’s Road Program contractor, D-Construction, Inc. of Coal City, Illinois. D-Construction has agreed to complete this work using the 2016 Road Program contracted unit pricing. The estimated cost of this project using current unit pricing is $75,338.38. The resurfacing of Kristo Lane and Dorstep Lane/81st Avenue project could be completed for a considerable savings by utilizing the 2016 Road Program pricing. To account for any unforeseen issues, staff is requesting that a $10,000 contingency be added to the cost.
On June 6, 2016, this item was reviewed and approved by the Public Works Committee and referred to the Board for approval.
Financial Impact
Funds to complete this project are available in the 2016 Road Improvement Program Budget, account 054-0000-471250.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve adding Kristo Lane and Dorstep Lane/81st Avenue to the 2016 Road Improvement Program at a cost not to exceed $85,338.38, which includes a $10,000 contingency.
