ACTION REQUESTED:
Title
Communication from the City Manager and Director of Public Works with a Request to APPROVE Change Order #1 for a One-Year Extension of the CONCRETE REPAIRS CONTRACT - 2021 with ILLINOIS CIVIL CONTRACTORS, INC. and to Authorize the City Manager to Execute the Change Order, for a Total Budget Amount of $100,000.00.

BACKGROUND: Public Works proposes to continue a concrete repair contract similar to the annual storm sewer repair contract.

This is an opportunity for the Public Works Engineering Division to improve efficiency and be more responsive.
This contract will be used to make traffic calming improvements and for other concrete repairs, as needed.
The original unit prices bid shall remain in effect for this contract extension. The contract change is germane to the original contract as signed.
Illinois Civil Contractors, Inc. is a local business that has successfully performed similar work for the City in the past.

IMPACT IF DENIED: Concrete repairs and concrete traffic calm...
