Title
Maycliff Subdivision Storm Sewer and Watermain Improvements - Engineering Services
History
Christopher B. Burke Engineering, Ltd. (CBBEL) has previously provided preliminary engineering design services which included a detailed hydrologic and hydraulic analysis aimed at reducing the risk of flooding in the Maycliff Subdivision. Based upon the results of the analysis, Village staff recommends proceeding with final engineering to provide protection during long duration and high intensity rain events. This subdivision is also due for watermain replacement based on the age and frequency of breaks in the area. To avoid conflicts with the infrastructure, CBBEL was asked to include watermain replacement engineering in their proposal. Completing this work together will also minimize disruption and inconvenience to the residents.
On May 6, 2013, the Village received a proposal from CBBEL to prepare final engineering and bid specifications for the Maycliff Subdivision Storm Sewer and Watermain Improvements. Staff has reviewed the proposal from CBBEL and finds it to be of good value for the scope of work and fees to be appropriate.
On June 17, 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 items #031-6007-470500 and #031-6002-470500 (Underground Water and Sewer Lines) for this work.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve accepting the proposal from Christopher B. Burke Engineering, Ltd. of Rosemont, Illinois, for professional engineering services as outlined in their May 6, 2013, proposal for the Maycliff Subdivision Storm Sewer and Watermain Improvements in an amount not to exceed $128,500.
