Title
2020 Concrete Slab Raising for Sidewalk Hazard Repairs - One Year Extension of Contract.
History
On June 8, 2017, sealed bids were received by the Clerk’s Office for Concrete Slab Raising- Unit Pricing for concrete sidewalk repairs. This was advertised as a three (3) year contract for years 2017 through 2019. Quick Raising Concrete of Lockport, Illinois was identified as the lowest responsible bidder and awarded the contract on July 17, 2017. The contractor has worked diligently and efficiently since 2017 providing excellent service in utilizing this non-invasive process for adjusting sidewalk squares that have settled or heaved, presenting a trip hazard.
Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and the challenge of advertising for competitive bids at this time, staff requested a proposal from Quick Raising Concrete to extend the current pricing for one year. The contractor remains available to perform the work and has agreed to maintain the 2019 unit price of $2.00 per square foot from the original contract. Attached is a quote from Quick Raising Concrete dated April 11, 2020.
To continue the annual raising of various sidewalk locations throughout the Village, staff is requesting to extend the contract with Quick Raising Concrete for one year at an amount not to exceed $40,000.
Financial Impact
Funds are available for this work in the Road Improvement Program account 054-0000-471250.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve a one year contract extension with Quick Raising Concrete of Lockport, Illinois at the unit price of $2.00 per square in an amount not to exceed $40,000.00.
