"TOM
A key component of the Mount Prospect Strategic Plan is to improve the Village"s residential street light system. The
Randview Highlands neighborhood is located immediately south of Kensington Road and west of Main Street (IL Route
83). The area includes Prospect High School and Fairview Elementary School. Twenty (20) Village street lights have
recently been installed on four streets to enhance nighttime visibility in the neighborhood. A separate project, Phase
II, will involve installing twenty (20) additional Village street lights on four other streets later this year. It will include
work on Elmhurst Avenue,, Russel Street, Pine Street and Wille Street between Kensington Road and Highland Street.
The timeframe to fabricate and deliver street lights poles has increased dramatically in recent years. The typical
week schedule has nearly doubled to receive street light poles once the order has been placed with the manufacturer.
Availability of material and demand for products are primary factors for the increase in delay.
Staff is seeking at this time to purchase twenty (20) street light poles directly from one of the manufacturer's
distributors for the Randview Highlands Street Light Project - Phase II. The poles are tapered aluminum with a clamp
arm design that meet Village standards for residential streets. They will match the poles uniformly utilized on local
roads throughout the community.
Purchasing the poles now will ensure they will be delivered in August. Staff anticipates completing the engineering
plans and starting construction this fall. The chosen contractor will be given the poles and will install them pursuant to
Village specifications. In this manner,, the project can be completed before the end of the year.
Alternatively, should the chosen contractor be responsible to order the poles after award of a contract, the delay
would cause work to continue into the winter with final restoration in the spring of 2020. Additionally, the pole prices

will likely be marked up to compensate the installation contractor for procurement expenses, material handling fees,
and profit.
The LED luminaires for this project have already been procured through a separate materials bid awarded by the
Village Board on May 7, 2019.
Bid Results
The Village published the bid request on DemandStar via the Village website. Eight (8) companies viewed the bidding
documents with four (4) companies submitting a bid. LED Lighting Solutions, LLC of Berlin, CT was the low bidder
with a bid of $31,460.00. The complete bid results are:

•$35,,804.80
-1-35,916.6 6
rWteiner Electric -I'At
All bidders submitted a Bid Sheet and three (3) of the four (4) bidders submitted a Bid Certification Form as required
by the contract documents. Steiner Electric failed to submit a Bid Certification Form. The bids were checked for
accuracy. LED Lighting Solutions had an error that increased their bid by $80 but it did not affect their low bid
ranking.
Discussion
LED Lighting Solutions,, LLC has not done business with the Village in the past. A primary part of their business is to
supply street light materials to public agencies and companies from many different manufacturers. Recent projects
with public agencies include the US Department of Justice, US Navy,, and the Massachusetts Bay Transportation
Authority. Reference checks indicate that the firm satisfactorily fulfilled all orders. In addition, Village staff contacted
Hapco Pole Products, the pole manufacturer for this project. A Hapco representative indicated LED Lighting Solutions
is a reputable company in good standing with the firm.
LED Lighting Solutions verified they can deliver the street light materials within ten (10) weeks of signing a contract.
is
This timeframe meets the Village's schedule to complete the engineering plans, bid the project., hire a contractor, an
begin construction this fall.
Village staff is confident that Lighting Solutions can supply the specified street light materials on time and within the
bid amount.
Alternatives
1. Accept the lowest cost,, responsive bid for Streelight Poles and Accessories.
2. Action at discretion of Village Board.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Village Board accept the lowest cost, responsive bid from LED Lighting Solutions, LLC of
Berlin, CT to deliver street light poles and arms for the Randview Highlands Street Light Project - Phase II for a not t
exceed amount of $31,,460-00. 1
