History
On March 5, 2019, RFP 19-006 "Centennial Park Aquatic Center (CPAC) Activity Pool Gutter Repairs" was issued by the Parks & Grounds Department. The RFP requested proposals from interested parties for gutter leveling, repairs, rim flow coping stone replacement, and the replacement of adjacent concrete deck for the Activity Pool at the Centennial Park Aquatic Center (CPAC), ensuring compliance with all ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) requirements.
The RFP was opened on March 20, 2019, with three (3) companies submitting proposals. The total budgeted amount for this project is $225,000. The proposal totals were as following:

CROSSROADS CONSTRUCTION - $345,800.00
BERGLUND CONSTRUCTION - $449,000.00
The lowest qualified bidder was Schaefges Brothers, Inc. of Wheeling, IL. Due to the large disparity between proposal totals, staff contacted six (6) of the references listed on Schaefges Brothers, Inc. submittal. All references that were contacted had high praise for the Schaefges Brothers and credited the company with a strong quality of work and professionalism.
As such, staff recommends awarding RFP #19-006, Centennial Park Aquatic Center (CPAC) Activity Pool Gutter Repairs, to the low bidder Schaefges Brothers of Wheeling, IL for a total bid price of $166,850.00.
