Title
108th Avenue 16” Watermain Repair - Approval
History
On Thursday, October 3, 2013, staff observed from our SCADA System higher volumes of water than normal being pumped from the 153rd Street Booster Station. As a result, staff initiated a search and discovered a leak on the 16” watermain south of the intersection of 108th Avenue and Crystal Springs Lane. Due to its location, depth and size, Airy’s, Inc. of Tinley Park, Illinois, was contacted to complete the repair. The work was completed for a total cost of $11,279.10. A contract is in place between the Village and Airy’s, Inc. to perform this type of work on an emergency basis.
On October 21, 2013, this item was reviewed by the Public Works and Engineering Committee, recommended for approval and referred to the Village Board of Trustees for consideration.
Financial Impact
Sufficient funds are available within Line Item #031-6002-44800 (Water System Repair and Service) to cover the cost of this work.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve payment to Airy’s, Inc. of Tinley Park, Illinois, for the October 3, 2013, watermain repair south of the intersection of 108th Avenue and Crystal Springs Lane in an amount not to exceed $11,279.10.
